1
What's eating you?
2
What do you mean?
3
I'm fine.
4
No you aren't.
5
Come on.
6
Whatever it is, get it off your chest.
7
Well, see that woman over there?
8
Her name's Elizabeth.
9
I've been trying to find a way to meet her for months, and now here she is, but I don't have the guts to walk over there.
10
Come on, Bill.
11
This is your chance.
12
Just give it a shot.
13
What do you have to lose?
14
She wouldn't be caught dead with me.
15
Why do you say that?
16
Let's just skip it, okay?
17
I don't know why I even told you.
18
How do you know her anyway?
19
We work in the same building.
20
Well, I think you should just bite the bullet, go over there, and start a conversation.
21
Maybe later.
22
Why put it off? Who knows?
23
You two might hit it off.
24
That'll be the day.
25
Why are you so negative all of a sudden?
26
I've never seen you like this.
27
Maybe you're right.
28
I should just take the initiative and walk over there.
29
But what should I say?
30
Now you're talking.
31
Just introduce yourself and start talking about the party.
32
Or mention that you've seen her at work.
33
She's bound to recognize you, too.
34
Well, maybe.
35
Oh, you're probably right.
36
If I pass up this chance, I'll never forgive myself.
37
Well, here I go.
38
Wish me luck.
39
Yikes!
40
What happened?
41
I can't believe it.
42
All of a sudden, a kid just ran in front of that waitress and she almost dropped her tray.
43
What?
44
Yeah, look.
45
The parents are just sitting there while their kid's totally out of control.
46
What?
47
I can't hear you.
48
It's so noisy in here.
49
I said, his parents aren't paying any attention to him at all.
50
I don't think they have a clue that he's causing trouble.
51
Well, this is just what we need after going through all the trouble of getting a babysitter.
52
I thought we came here to eat in peace for once.
53
Maybe we should just go somewhere else.
54
It's taking forever to get our food anyway.
55
That's not a bad idea.
56
Uh-oh.
57
It's too late.
58
Our food's coming.
59
Sorry for the wait.
60
That's okay.
61
You're really busy tonight.
62
I saw what just happened with that kid.
63
You have a pretty dangerous job.
64
Yeah, unfortunately, not all parents keep their kids under control, but I guess that's part of the job.
65
Well, we'd never put up with that kind of behavior from our kids.
66
I have nothing against taking kids to restaurants, but the bottom line is that kids need to learn how to behave, especially in public.
67
Oh look, here comes the manager.
68
I think he's going to talk to them.
69
I wonder if he's going to ask them to leave.
70
Mmm, this coffee is really strong.
71
I like it that way.
72
So do I.
73
All during my last class I was thinking about coming here and could almost taste the coffee.
74
Sounds like it wasn't too exciting.
75
I was bored to death.
76
I'm in that class only because it's a requirement, so I have to stick it out.
77
The problem is the professor doesn't know how to spark our interest.
78
She just walks in and lectures.
79
There's no discussion.
80
What a drag.
81
Don't people ask questions?
82
Oh yeah, once in a blue moon.
83
but I always see an awful lot of people doodling, and I can tell their minds are wandering.
84
Do you have any classes like that?
85
I have only one big lecture class, World History, and the professor's the best.
86
It's so interesting.
87
I'm always on the edge of my seat.
88
And when we have discussions, the room is filled with electricity.
89
I'm jealous.
90
Too bad I already took history.
91
You know, one day it dawned on me
92
that I was lucky to be in her class because I found myself thinking a lot about what she said.
93
Did you ever have a teacher like that?
94
I'd have to think about it.
95
I don't know.
96
You should come with me to class sometime, just to see what I mean.
97
Sounds like you're in love with her, Steve.
98
Very funny.
99
She could be my grandmother.
100
Anyway, I guess what it really comes down to is her enthusiasm for the subject.
101
She just loves history.
102
I remember at the beginning of the semester, I was fooling around a lot and not taking anything in school very seriously.
103
I bombed the first history test, but then I buckled down because I started really enjoying school, especially her class.
104
You've got me really curious about this teacher.
105
I think I'll take you up on your idea to visit your class.
106
When does it meet?
107
Hello, young man.
108
What brings you to this neck of the woods?
109
Actually, I was wondering if I could interview you from my newspaper.
110
Me? About what?
111
Well, we're doing a series of articles on the homeless, and I...
112
And you want to know what happened to me, what I live on, what it's like to live from hand to mouth?
113
Uh, yeah, I do want to know.
114
Would you be willing to tell me your story?
115
You got about three hours.
116
Whatever we need.
117
Well, then go ahead and sit down.
118
Thanks.
119
Um, let's see.
120
Well, first, I'd like to ask you...
121
No questions.
122
Just listen.
123
You think I grew up poor, don't you?
124
That I don't have an education.
125
But you're dead wrong.
126
I have a college degree.
127
I worked for a big company.
128
My parents would turn over in their graves if they could see me now. But how?
129
I said no questions.
130
Just sit still and listen.
131
In the beginning, I got up at 5 a.m every day and was at work by 7.
132
And I stayed at the office till 8 in the evening.
133
13 hours!
134
That was the only way I could keep up with all the work.
135
It just never let up.
136
I never saw my family very much because when I got home, I usually went straight to bed.
137
Well, I guess I was doing a pretty good job because I kept moving up the ladder.
138
I became a manager and got more money, but I also had to work even more hours and weekends, too.
139
You can imagine that my wife never stopped complaining.
140
She told me I was getting burned out and had no time for a life.
141
That must have been really hard to hear.
142
Yeah, my marriage was at stake.
143
So I went to my boss
144
and asked for a vacation He told me to wait three more months He needed me there
145
So nothing changed Day in and day out I worked and worked Eventually,
146
my wife left And guess what?
147
The company closed down a year later The economy was bad and I couldn't find another job Over time,
148
I lost everything Hey, how many hours do you work a day?
149
Uh, too many, I'm sure.
150
I just hope you know what you're doing.
151
Things could change for you, you know.
152
You could start over.
153
After all, you're educated.
154
That's wishful thinking, young man.
155
What's gotten into Michael?
156
What's he doing?
157
I haven't the slightest idea.
158
Look, he's coming over to us.
159
And these are for you.
160
What's the occasion?
161
You haven't heard?
162
I won the lottery yesterday.
163
Ten million dollars.
164
Ten million dollars?
165
Come on.
166
That's unheard of.
167
Are you sure?
168
Beyond the shadow of a doubt.
169
Six, twelve, twenty-two, twenty-four, twenty-five, and twenty-eight.
170
I got every number.
171
and it was the first time I ever bought a lottery ticket.
172
Beginner's luck, I guess.
173
How do you feel?
174
I'm in shock, to say the least.
175
This is really all beyond my comprehension.
176
It hasn't sunk in yet.
177
Maybe it never will.
178
Well, I've got to hand it to you.
179
You sure look very calm.
180
If I were in your shoes, I don't think I'd be able to stand still, let alone buy presents for people and have conversations with them.
181
I'm not so calm.
182
I really have no idea what's in store for me.
183
You know, right now my whole life's up in the air.
184
I'm worried about making the most of this.
185
I don't want all that money to go down the drain.
186
I'm going to need some time to think.
187
Are you going to quit your job?
188
I can't say yet, but I won't rule it out.
189
Well, you're right not to make any quick decisions.
190
And you know, you should be on the lookout for people who want to take advantage of you.
191
I know.
192
I plan to be very, very careful.
193
Well, no matter what you do, with ten million dollars, you've got it made.
194
Oh no, this can't be happening.
195
Hmm.
196
Well, that certainly happened out of the blue.
197
I wonder what's going on.
198
I'm going to ring the alarm.
199
This is the last straw.
200
I told them weeks ago to check this elevator.
201
I would have been better off taking the stairs.
202
Do you mean this has happened before?
203
It sure has.
204
It was a few weeks ago, but I wasn't in the elevator.
205
Oh, if I'm cooped up in here really long, I don't know what I'm going to do.
206
I'm already at the end of my rope.
207
Well, for crying out loud, young man, don't lose your head.
208
Just calm down, and I'm sure they'll get this thing started again as soon as they can.
209
You know, I knocked myself out to be on time for my meeting, and now look!
210
Complaining isn't going to help.
211
We'll just have to make do here and be thankful that we have some light and some company.
212
Actually, you're right.
213
I'm glad I'm not alone in here, or I'd be climbing the walls.
214
So you see, it could be a lot worse.
215
Just please do me a favor and keep a level head.
216
Let's just sit tight and wait for help.
217
How can you be so calm?
218
It sounds like you've been stuck in elevators before.
219
Well, the truth is, this is my first time.
220
But why should I panic?
221
What good would it do?
222
I don't want to dwell on things that scare me.
223
I'd rather pass the time in here pleasantly.
224
How would that ever be possible?
225
Hmm.
226
We could tell each other our life stories. Who knows?
227
We might even come through this as friends.
228
Huh?
229
We can help each other by doing something that'll distract us.
230
Why don't you just sit down and tell me about yourself?
231
So, what do you think?
232
Well, it's nothing to write home about.
233
You must be kidding.
234
Why do you say that?
235
I think it's the best movie I've seen in years.
236
With all that violence?
237
It wasn't so violent.
238
It certainly was.
239
There was blood in practically every scene.
240
And sometimes the violence had no bearing on the story.
241
It was just put in for audiences who liked to see blood.
242
I don't know how they can get away with showing so much detail.
243
Well, from my standpoint, there was a real anti-violence message in the movie.
244
They showed how all that violence ended in tragedy.
245
But that's no excuse for being so graphic.
246
Why did they have so many scenes with all that suffering?
247
Because it was an important part of the story.
248
Sorry, but that argument just doesn't hold water.
249
You could cut some of those scenes out and still have your story.
250
And as far as sending an anti-violence message, they can do that without making the audience sick.
251
Now you're really blowing this whole thing out of proportion. Am I?
252
Look at the crime statistics.
253
Listen, you know this subject is a bone of contention between us.
254
We've had heated arguments about this kind of thing before.
255
Yes, too many.
256
I sure hope that someday I'll get through to you.
257
All I know is I got my money's worth tonight.
258
Well, I'll agree that the story was engrossing, but all that blood and violence drives me up the wall.
259
Look, now we're back where we started.
260
Let's just agree to disagree and go get a cup of coffee.
261
Dad, what time is it?
262
Four.
263
Four?
264
Who knows what time that is for me?
265
Boy, I have terrible jet lag.
266
I can't keep my eyes open.
267
Well, I'm not going to let you sleep in the middle of the afternoon.
268
Let's take a walk, and you can tell me about your trip.
269
I'm sorry, Daddy, but I'm too wiped out.
270
I think I'll stretch out and take a little nap.
271
Uh-uh.
272
No naps.
273
You know if you go to sleep now, you're going to wake up in the middle of the night.
274
Come on.
275
Let's take a little walk around the block.
276
Maybe you'll get a second wind.
277
I sure hope so.
278
I missed you and Mom a lot.
279
A year is a long time time we missed you too honey
280
but we knew that studying in another country was good for you well i sure had my ups
281
and downs sometimes i even thought about coming home early
282
but i was determined to stick it out and i'm glad you did
283
but you didn't tell us you were having problems what was
284
so hard for you over there oh i don't think i can scratch the surface There were times,
285
especially in the winter, when I got really homesick.
286
You know, it's hard to be away during holidays.
287
But my friends were absolutely great, especially my roommate.
288
Remember she took me home to her family?
289
That really helped.
290
If we'd known how homesick you were, we would have hopped on a plane.
291
Why didn't you let us know?
292
Oh, I didn't want you to worry.
293
And it would have been too expensive.
294
Anyway, in the spring, I got much better.
295
It finally hit home that I was lucky to be living in another culture.
296
I stopped thinking so much about my problems and got out of my rut.
297
I started going to more parties and concerts and things like that.
298
And listen to this.
299
After a while, I didn't realize it, but my fluency improved.
300
Can you imagine that there were times when I forgot I wasn't speaking English?
301
Wow, that's music to my ears.
302
I knew you'd do it if you lived over there.
303
And to top that off, people started to compliment my pronunciation.
304
You don't want to lose all that, honey.
305
Are there any conversation classes you can take here?
306
Uh, Dad, I wasn't going to broach the subject till later, but there's a chance that I can get a scholarship and go back next year.
307
Go back?
308
But you just got home.
309
I know.
310
Do you really want to go back?
311
The truth is, I'm not sure.
312
I need to sleep on it.
313
Speaking of sleep, now can I take a little nap?
314
I'm so sleepy.
315
Thank you.

I partecipanti esploreranno frasi colloquiali e risponderanno a domande che stimoleranno la loro capacità di interazione sociale. L'accento è posto sulla comprensione delle emozioni e delle dinamiche relazionali che emergono in una conversazione autentica, il che aiuta a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e a costruire fiducia nel parlare.
Vocabolario e frasi chiave

Consigli per la pratica
Per migliorare la vostra esperienza di shadowing in inglese, è importante seguire il ritmo del dialogo presentato in questo video. Consigliamo di ascoltare attentamente le espressioni e le intonazioni dei parlanti. Ecco alcuni suggerimenti specifici:
- Ascoltate il dialogo più volte prima di provare a ripetere. Questo vi aiuterà a familiarizzare con il tono e il ritmo delle conversazioni.
- Praticate il shadow speech, ripetendo immediatamente dopo ogni frase per migliorare la vostra pronuncia inglese.
- Annotate le frasi e le espressioni che trovate utili e provate a usarle in conversazioni reali.
- Fate attenzione a come i relatori gestiscono le pause e le emozioni. Imparare a formare il vostro stile comunicativo basandovi su questi modelli può essere molto vantaggioso.
- Utilizzate questo video come risorsa per imparare l'inglese con youtube, coinvolgendo amici o partner di conversazione per rendere la pratica più interattiva e dinamica.
Seguendo questi suggerimenti, migliorerete non solo la vostra fluidità, ma anche la vostra capacità di partecipare a conversazioni più naturali e coinvolgenti in inglese.
La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Frasi condizionali if + frase, will/would + verbo — una condizione e il suo risultato | If I pass up this chance, I'll never |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've never seen · you've seen · haven't heard |
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | be caught · is filled · you've been stuck |
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.
