Music Music Music Music Music Music Music Music Power has always been a deadly narcotic, and in 1989, Radio Shack's Tandy 1000 SL was my drug of choice.
2
With an Intel 8086 running at 8 megahertz and a 5 and a quarter inch floppy drive, there was nothing I couldn't do.
3
From adding snazzy graphics to my homework...
4
So snazzy.
5
...to easily alphabetizing my list of enemies and their crimes.
6
So easy.
7
Sheldon, time to go.
8
We really need to get one of these.
9
What on earth do we need a computer for?
10
Yeah, we got you and your big head.
11
But we can get so much accomplished.
12
I could use a spreadsheet program to keep track of your expenses.
13
I do that in the back of my checkbook.
14
Yes, but does your checkbook go beep when you open it?
15
I don't think so.
16
Plus, the computer can organize your recipes.
17
But my recipes are organized.
18
On index cards, like a cave person.
19
Cave, Mom.
20
I'm gonna call you that.
21
Doesn't matter, Sheldon.
22
We can't afford a computer.
23
Sure we can.
24
It's only $998, and Dave says we can buy it on easy monthly payments.
25
That's true.
26
Stay out of this, Dave.
27
Come on.
28
We got to get home.
29
But...
30
Sheldon, I said no.
31
I can make you a good deal on the floor model, Mrs.
32
Cooper.
33
Seriously, Dave?
34
You're getting on my nerves.
35
It's not fair.
36
You bought Missy a ring, Pop.
37
For 10 cents.
38
And I'm worth every penny.
39
Let's go.
40
Sorry, Dave.
41
We're living paycheck to paycheck.
42
Move?
43
Oh, Radio Shack.
44
Here it is.
45
A Tandy 1000 SL computer system.
46
Sheldon was going on and on about that thing today.
47
I've never seen one so easy to use.
48
Greetings.
49
Need directions back to your planet?
50
This technology is more advanced than we thought.
51
You know that movie, E.T.?
52
The kid who finds him, his name is Elliot, which starts with an E and ends with a T.
53
Coincidence?
54
I don't think so.
55
You're going to live with us forever, aren't you?
56
So Sheldon wants a computer.
57
Ever since he could talk, but now more than ever.
58
Well, he should get a job after school, save up and buy one.
59
Get a job?
60
He's none.
61
I mowed lawns when I was his age.
62
Made pretty good money.
63
You want Sheldon to mow lawns?
64
He's so pale five minutes in the sun, he'd burst into flames.
65
I would pay to see that.
66
Shut up, Georgie.
67
I hope you told him we can't afford it.
68
Of course.
69
I could buy it for him, and then y'all could pay me back when you can.
70
Okay, Connie, now you're just insulting.
71
Well, that was not my intention, but I'm glad to hear it.
72
I could pay my own bills and take care of my family.
73
There are expenses we could cut back on so we could afford a computer.
74
You mean like the money you give the church?
75
No, I mean like the money you give to the Lone Star Beer Company.
76
Good one, Mom.
77
Shut up.
78
We're not getting a computer.
79
We don't need your money.
80
Where are you going?
81
To get a glass of milk.
82
He's lying.
83
He's getting a beer.
84
Shut up, Georgie.
85
I'm guessing we're not having our wants a week.
86
Sorry, I only have relations with gentlemen I like.
87
Oh, come on.
88
You know how I feel about your mother meddling in our finances.
89
She wasn't meddling.
90
She was offering to help.
91
And that computer is not some silly toy.
92
Sheldon could use it for his schoolwork, and I could use it to organize my recipes.
93
You already got them organized on those little cards.
94
Yeah, like a cave person.
95
Well, it doesn't matter.
96
We can't afford it.
97
End of story.
98
Not exactly end of story.
99
What does that mean?
100
I've been setting money aside the last couple of years, and this might be a good use for it.
101
Money from what?
102
You know, here and there.
103
Bookkeeping for the church.
104
Some seamstress work.
105
Birthday money from my Aunt Zelda.
106
Just how much it is here and there money you got saved up.
107
Well, seeing as it's my money, I don't think that's any of your business.
108
None of my business?
109
You see every nickel I'm making.
110
You got secret money?
111
It's not secret.
112
I just told you.
113
Where are you hiding it?
114
Well, now you're headed into secret territory.
115
Oh, okay.
116
Just so I'm clear, my money's our money, but your money's your money.
117
That's right.
118
Oh, good to know.
119
I'm glad we're not having her once a week, because I am not in the mood.
120
Really?
121
That's too bad.
122
Why?
123
Are you?
124
No.
125
That was uncalled for.
126
When you leaving?
127
Very funny.
128
That wasn't a joke.
129
I love you and I love the kids, but I love you better living across the street.
130
Sorry the end of my marriage is inconveniencing you.
131
Oh, don't be so dramatic.
132
It's a little spat.
133
No.
134
This was a long time coming.
135
This goes to the very core of our relationship.
136
I see we're sticking with dramatic.
137
The minute he found out I had money set aside, he felt threatened, and you know why?
138
Because it meant that I can live independent of him.
139
Sleeping in your mommy's bed.
140
You know what I mean.
141
You gonna buy Sheldon that computer?
142
Well, now I have to.
143
Got it.
144
You do know I still have an active love life.
145
Just go to sleep?
146
on this very bed.
147
Oh, Mom.
148
Hey.
149
I hope you're happy.
150
Thank you, Georgie.
151
That's very kind.
152
Mom and Dad are fighting because you want to get a stupid computer.
153
What are you talking about?
154
Mom wanted to buy it for you.
155
Dad said they couldn't afford it.
156
Me and Mom offered to pay for it.
157
Now I'm eating pineapple spears for lunch.
158
I hate making my own lunch.
159
I'm sorry, Georgie.
160
I didn't know.
161
Yeah?
162
Well, now you do.
163
What did you get?
164
A turkey sandwich mom cut in the shape of her heart, a fruit cup, a brownie, and a note from me and I was saying how much she loves me.
165
I haven't read it yet, but I bet it's a lot.
166
I don't even have a can opener.
167
Oh, Sugar Apple, I love you so much.
168
Your affection for inanimate objects frightens me.
169
I'm glad you're happy, Missy.
170
I'm even happier that I got a toy and Sheldon got nothing.
171
Well, now we're not exactly done shopping.
172
Sheldon, you still want that computer?
173
I thought we couldn't afford it.
174
Don't you worry about that.
175
Do you want it or not?
176
More than anything.
177
All right, then.
178
Let's go get it.
179
Wait, he gets a computer and I get a lousy toy?
180
I thought you liked it.
181
Not anymore.
182
The home computer I had long coveted was finally in my possession.
183
But it was also destroying my home.
184
Thankfully, it came preloaded with a program to help solve personal problems.

Hello, I am Eliza.
186
My parents are fighting a lot.
187
I see.
188
Can you elaborate on that?

My mother bought me this computer, but my dad says we can't afford it.

No.

She makes me spaghetti with hot dogs cut up in it.
193
Can you elaborate on that?
194
Are you going to help me or not?
195
Hello, I am Eliza.
196
The future may be overrated.
197
These home computers are amazing.
198
I can start a real bookkeeping business with that thing.
199
And that would go a long way to giving you the financial independence you're looking for.
200
Darn tootin'.
201
Just for your information, Shelly is using the computer right now to try and fix your marriage.
202
Really?
203
What did it say?
204
It said, get out of your mother's house.
205
Mom.
206
I'm serious.
207
I want a cigarette and I'm tired of hiding behind the garage.
208
You think I should apologize to George?
209
Well, of course not.
210
That would set a terrible precedent.
211
I think you should go back over there to pick up some clothes for the kids and be all cold and distant, so he has to apologize to you.
212
Not bad.
213
Do it.
214
I will.
215
Why are you drinking tea?
216
Get out.
217
Oh, hello.
218
Hey.
219
Were you coming back?
220
Just to get some clothes for the kids.
221
Oh.
222
Were you coming to talk to me?
223
Well, yeah.
224
I, um...
225
wanted to apologize.
226
Really?
227
We'll go for a walk, talk a little.
228
Sure.
229
And this program will allow us to track our family finances, create a budget, and prepare tax documents.
230
That's impressive.
231
Would you like to know how much money you spend on beer annually?
232
No, I would.
233
$936.
234
George.
235
If you switch to Hawaiian Punch, we could live in a bigger house.
236
Hello, I am Eliza.
237
Eliza.
238
R.
239
U.
240
Pop.
241
In your fantasies, am I hot?
242
Oh, yes.
243
You realize you're not talking to a real person.
244
Hey, get out of here.
245
I'm about to score.
246
Missy, turn off the computer.
247
Time to go to bed.
248
I got to finish my homework.
249
Big money, big money.
250
Yes.
251
Woo!
252
Are you kidding me?
253
Hello?
254
Hello?

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?

Il video di "Young Sheldon" offre un contesto vivace e coinvolgente per imparare l'inglese con YouTube. L'interazione tra i personaggi permette di ascoltare frasi colloquiali e situazioni quotidiane, rendendo più facile comprendere la lingua parlata. Praticare il parlato attraverso questo tipo di contenuto non solo migliora la comprensione, ma aiuta anche a sviluppare una maggiore fluidità. Utilizzando la tecnica del shadow speak, puoi ripetere le frasi dei personaggi per migliorare la tua pronuncia e il tuo ritmo. Impegnarti in questo esercizio ti permetterà di acquisire confidenza nell'uso dell'inglese nella vita reale.

Grammatica ed Espressioni nel Contesto

  • Frasi ipotetiche: L'uso di "if" nelle conversazioni, ad esempio quando Sheldon dice "What on earth do we need a computer for?" dimostra come formulare domande retoriche e esprimere dubbi.
  • Modal verbs: Espressioni come "we can get so much accomplished" sono un ottimo esempio di come i verbi modali possono esprimere possibilità e capacità.
  • Vocaboli comuni: Frasi come "live paycheck to paycheck" introducono idiomi utili che puoi usare quando parli di finanze personali.

Questi elementi grammaticali non solo arricchiscono il tuo vocabolario, ma ti permettono anche di utilizzare l'inglese in contesti diversi, ampliando la tua capacità di espressione.

Trappole di Pronuncia Comuni

Alcune parole e frasi nel video possono costituire delle sfide per la pronuncia. Ad esempio, la frase "power has always been a deadly narcotic" presenta suoni che possono risultare complicati per i non madrelingua

. Le parole come "computer," "expensive," e "organized" contengono suoni specifici che potrebbero non esistere nella tua lingua madre. L'uso di shadowing in inglese ti aiuterà a perfezionare la tua dizione e a superare questi ostacoli. Registrati mentre parli e riascolta le tue pronunce per identificare aree di miglioramento: è un modo efficace per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e diventare più sicuro nel parlare.

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.
