15
C. As more wild weather events happen, people are asking questions.
16
What is happening with the weather? And why?
17
Is this natural?
18
Or are we to blame?
19
D. The answer seems to be a little of both.
20
Wild weather is natural, but most scientists agree human activity has made the Earth warmer.
21
This global warming makes heat waves more likely.
22
The higher temperatures also cause more water to enter the air.
23
This causes heavier and more frequent rain.
24
Many scientists also believe global warming makes hurricanes and other storms stronger.
25
E. This means we're likely to see more wild weather.
26
But we don't have to just stand there and take it, says scientist Michael Oppenheimer.
27
He and other experts say we need to stop the Earth from getting warmer.
28
We also need to be prepared to do things that will help save lives.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
