1
I mean, I know it's kind of a weird time,
2
but I was just wondering,
3
um, what is going to happen to us on Monday when we're all together again?
4
I mean, I consider you guys my friends.
5
I'm not wrong, am I?
6
No. So on Monday, what happens?
7
Are we still friends, you mean?
8
For friends now, that is?
9
Yeah.
10
Do you want the truth?
11
Yeah, I want the truth.
12
I don't think so.
13
With all of us or just John?
14
With all of you.
15
That's a real nice attitude, Claire.
16
Oh, be honest, Andy.
17
If Brian came walking up to you in the hall on Monday,
18
what would you do?
19
I mean, picture this.
20
You're there with all the sports.
21
I know exactly what you'd do.
22
You'd say hi to him,
23
and when he left, you'd cut him all up so your friends wouldn't think that you really liked him.
24
No way.
25
OK.
26
What if I came up to you?
27
The same exact thing.
28
You are a bitch!
29
Why?
30
Because I'm telling the truth?
31
That makes me a bitch?
32
No, because you know how shitty that is to do to someone.
33
And you don't got the balls to stand up to your friends
34
and tell them that you're going to like who you want to like.
35
Okay, what about you, you hypocrite?
36
Why don't you take Allison to one of your heavy metal vomit parties?
37
Or take Brian out to the parking lot at lunch and get hired.
38
What about Andy for that matter?
39
What about me?
40
What would your friends say if we were walking down the hall together?
41
They'd laugh their asses off,
42
and you'd probably tell them that you were doing it with me,
43
so they'd forgive you for being seen with me.
44
Don't you ever talk about my friends.
45
You don't know any of my friends.
46
You don't look at any of my friends,
47
and you certainly wouldn't condescend to speak to any of my friends,
48
so you just stick to the things that you know.
49
Shopping, nail polish, your father's BMW,
50
and your poor, rich, drunk mother in the Caribbean.
51
Shut up!
52
And as far as being concerned about what's gonna happen when you and I walk down the hallways to school,
53
you can forget it, because it's never gonna happen.
54
Just bury your head in the sand and wait for your fucking prom.
55
I hate you.
56
Yeah?
57
Good.
58
The nice new mouse and I are better people than you guys, huh?
59
Us weirdos.
60
Would you do that to me?
61
I don't have any friends.
62
Well, if you did...
63
No. I don't think the kind of friends I'd have would mind.
64
I just want to tell each of you that I wouldn't do that.
65
I wouldn't and I will not.
66
Because I think that's real shitty.
67
Your friends wouldn't mind because they look up to us.
68
You're so conceited, Glenn.
69
You're so conceited.
70
You're so, like, full of yourself.
71
Why are you like that?
72
I'm not saying that to be conceited.
73
I hate it.
74
I hate having to go along with everything my friends say.
75
Then why do you do it?
76
I don't know.
77
I don't...
78
You don't understand.
79
You don't...
80
You're not friends with the same kind of people the same kind of people that Annie and I are friends with.
81
You know, you just don't understand the pressure that they can put on you.
82
I don't understand what?
83
You think I don't understand pressure, Claire?
84
Well, fuck you!
85
Fuck you!
86
You know I'm here today.
87
Do you?
88
I'm here because Mr. Ryan found a gun in the locker.
89
Why did you have a gun in your locker?
90
I tried.
91
When you pull the fucking trunk on it,
92
the light's supposed to go on.
93
It can't go on.
94
It can go on, I mean.
95
What's the gun for, Brian?
96
Forget it.
97
You brought it up, man.
98
I can't have an F.
99
I can't have it.
100
I know my parents can have it.
101
Even if I ace the rest of the semester,
102
I'm still only at B.
103
Everything's ruined for me.
104
O'Brien.
105
I'm just considering my options, you know?
106
No, killing yourself is not an option.
107
Well, I didn't do it, did I?
108
No, I don't think so.
109
It was a handgun?
110
No, it was a flare gun.
111
It went off in my locker.
112
It's not funny.
113
Yes, it is.
114
The fucking elephant was destroyed.
115
You want to know what I did to get in here?
116
Nothing.
117
I didn't have anything better to do.
118
You're laughing at me.
119
No!
120
Yeah, you are.

Consigli per la pratica

Quando pratichi il tuo shadow speech con questo dialogo, è importante prestare attenzione alla velocità e al tono dei personaggi. Il dialogo è frenetico e carico di emozione, quindi cerca di seguire il ritmo e di riflettere le intonazioni appropriate. Ecco alcuni suggerimenti utili:

  • Inizia lentamente: Prima di provare a parlare alla stessa velocità del video, ascolta bene il dialogo e prova a fare delle pause nei punti chiave, in modo da comprendere meglio la struttura delle frasi.
  • Ripeti ad alta voce: Quando ti senti più sicuro, prova a ripetere le frasi esattamente come le senti. Concentrati sulla pronuncia delle parole, per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la fluidità.
  • Registra te stesso: Usa un registratore audio per registrare la tua voce mentre pratichi. Poi, riascolta la registrazione per confrontare il tuo parlato con l'originale e identificare aree di miglioramento.
  • Imita l'emozione: Non limitarti a ripetere le parole; cerca di capire e riprodurre le emozioni trasmesse dai personaggi. Ciò rende la tua pratica più realistica e coinvolgente.

Utilizzando queste tecniche di shadowspeak, sarai in grado di sviluppare una maggiore competenza comunicativa in inglese, preparandoti per situazioni sociali reali. Buona pratica!

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.
