Creazione lezione...
1
Hey.
2
Did Mom say you could bring those in?
3
Did Mom say you could eat that candy bar?
4
I found it under the couch.
5
Why do you even need those stupid curlers?
6
They're broken anyway.
7
I've had them since fourth grade.
8
What, are you afraid you're going to hurt their feelings if you throw them out?
9
What?
10
I was kidding.
11
Oh, my God!
12
Sue thinks the curlers have feelings!
13
No, I don't!
14
Really?
15
What if I did this?
16
No, no!
17
Aww...
18
Stop it!
19
Stop it!
20
You're scaring it!
21
Scaring it?
22
Oh my god, this just gets better and better!
23
No!
24
No, Axel!
25
Axel, give them that!
26
Give them that!
27
Stop!
28
Stop!
29
Stop!
30
You can save one!
31
Which one will it be, Sue?
32
This one? Or this one?
33
Please don't make me choose!
34
Look, look, I know it's silly, but I used to put them in my hair in a different order each time
35
so that none of them felt left out.
36
Oh.
37
I'm sorry, Sue.
38
I didn't know you were out of your freaking mind.
39
Hey, guys!
40
Stop standing around.
41
Come on, now.
42
There's no time for talking.
43
If we focus, we can finish by dinner.
44
Guys, come on.
45
I told you to take this stuff to the donation place hours ago.
46
It's Sue's fault.
47
She's been going back and forth on those curlers all day.
48
She thinks they're alive.
49
I didn't say they're alive.
50
I said they have feelings.
51
I know they don't.
52
It's just I can't get rid of them because then they might feel bad.
53
Which is ridiculous because they don't have feelings.
54
I just don't want them to feel abandoned, you know?
55
Well, Sue, don't think of it as abandoning them.
56
You're donating them.
57
And somewhere out there is a homeless man with straight hair who will use these to curl his locks, get a job, and change his life.
58
Really?
59
Okay.
60
Quick, run these to the car before she changes her mind.
61
My arm is killing me!
62
Why couldn't we just tie this down?
63
Wait for it!
64
Ta-da!
65
Automatic unload.
66
Oh, no. Close!
67
Now we're gonna have to load everything back up.
68
No way, let's just dump and run.
69
But the sign says, do not leave items after hours.
70
There's no way we're carting all this crap back home.
71
Stop listening out and help me.
72
Do not leave items after hours.
73
No!
74
They're watching us.
75
Chill, this is a recording.
76
This is not just a recording.
77
You, boy with the red tricycle, girl with the straight hair.
78
It is illegal to leave items after hours per Indiana Penal Code 35-45, Section 3.
79
I'm sorry.
80
It's just.. we've come all this way and...
81
Screw them!
82
We're done!
83
Let's blow!
84
We're really good kids!
85
I promise!
86
Oh no!
87
I was gonna leave a note for whoever got the curlers!
88
You have to jiggle the plug!
89
You have to jiggle the plug!
90
Look at that.
91
I gotta get somebody out there with a rake.
92
Well, Axel's at football and Sue's at cross country.
93
Oh, but I heard Molly Donnie, who has a little leaf raking business going.
94
Why would I pay someone else's give when I got a perfectly good free one over there?
95
There, sitting under our roof, eating our food, using our last name.
96
Have you met Brick?
97
He's not ready for leaf raking.
98
He can't even blow his nose.
99
No, you're sucking in.
100
Out, out, blow up.
101
Wait, close your mouth.
102
Got to get some pressure going there.
103
This is nuts.
104
When I was eight, my dad had me driving a tractor, tarring a roof, trimming a tree with a chainsaw.
105
And remember, we were going to try and do better.
106
I'm just saying.
107
Brick's been playing the baby card for a little too long.
108
Chores are part of being a man.
109
Rick, congratulations.
110
You've been called up.
111
You're going to the show.
112
Because I don't know what that means, I'm going to assume it's some kind of sports expression.
113
I got a job for you, son.
114
I want you to go out there and rake all the leaves in the backyard.
115
Oh, I don't think I'm ready for leaf raking.
116
Thanks for your confidence.
117
Confidence.
118
Come on.
119
Let's go.
120
All right.
121
Rake works better if you flip it around.
122
There you go.
123
He's got it.
124
Rick, use the rake.
125
The rake, Rick.
126
That out there is a man in the making.
127
Yeah?
128
Well, your man in the making just climbed a new trash bag.
129
Jeez.
130
Rick!
131
Come on, get out of there!
132
Attaboy.
133
He's out.
134
And so Brick continued to rake the leaves day after day after day.
135
He organized them by color.
136
He made sure he got every one.
137
It's almost ready!
138
He did his job with extraordinary attention to detail.
139
This one doesn't match any of our trees.
140
I'll return to the neighbors.
141
And just when Mike had about given up...
142
I finished.
143
Really?
144
Yep.
145
You did it!
146
Took you 11 days to do a job that should take an hour, but you did it.
147
All by yourself.
148
Doesn't it feel good?
149
It really does.
150
You're growing up fast, Rick.
151
Really fast.
152
I know.
153
Can you tie my shoe?
154
Bob, when you say yards rushing, what does that mean?
155
Well, football's a really fascinating game, Rick.
156
It's hard to explain all the particular nuances.
157
You don't know, do you?
158
I just cheer when everyone else does.
159
Dad, then can I ask you a question?
160
Kind of wondering why you didn't.
161
Okay.
162
Where do the leaves go?
163
You know, after the raking.
164
You ask Bob about football and I get leaves?
165
Well?
166
Well, we'll take them down to the dump and they'll put them in the incinerator.
167
What?
168
You never said they were going to burn them.
169
What did you think was going to happen?
170
I thought maybe we'd take them into the forest and set them free.
171
Will all of our city parents please report to the leave?
172
Okay, let's break.
173
I don't have time to talk to you about this now.
174
They're calling the parents down onto the field.
175
Hey, Bob, keep an eye on him until I get back.
176
No problem, Mike.
177
He's safe with me.
178
I'm going for a corn dog.
179
Save my seat.
180
Just a short time, we'll begin the parade of the horse of...
181
This is harder than I thought.
182
I know.
183
Want to have some fun, Rumi?
184
How great was that last night, Rumi?
185
We must have woken up Axel's baby ten times.
186
What?
187
Why does fun always have a price?
188
Relax, this should be easy.
189
All we have to do is pull out all the loose pieces before applying the spackle.
190
Loose pieces.
191
They're all loose pieces!
192
Okay, I cut the holes for this piece of drywall I found in the garage.
193
Now, if my measurements are correct, it should be perfect.
194
No, I told you guys, I can't just drop everything and go to a movie anymore.
195
I'm taking care of a baby.
196
Man.
197
Ah, this thing is ruining my life!
198
Why do I have to do this?
199
I get it, I get it.
200
If a girl invites you into her bed, there'll be consequences.
201
Don't I know it.
202
Okay, I've got a screwdriver so we can reach the piece.
203
Honey, because it's sticky, and an egg because Mom wants me to eat more protein.
204
Great, give me the screwdriver.
205
Oh, I think I feel it.
206
Yeah, I think I...
207
Oh, no. So, we have to get that back.
208
Axel was using it. Can you see it?
209
Uh-oh.
210
Brick, are you kidding me?
211
You dropped the egg.
212
You dropped the screwdriver.
213
Screwdrivers don't smell.
214
They're going to find us out.
215
It's a telltale egg.
216
Oh, the egg's got to be here.
217
It's gotta be in one of them!
218
Sue, it's over.
219
It can't be over.
220
How did this whole thing go so wrong?
221
I just wanted a roommate.
222
I thought we were gonna have fun together.
223
I had fun.
224
Really?
225
Really.
226
Just by not sitting on my head, you're a way better roommate than Axel.
227
Thanks, Brick.
228
All right.
229
Oh.
230
Oh.
231
Oh.
232
Oh!
233
We did it!
234
We did it!
235
We did it!
236
Now all we have to do is scratch a few holes and then we're home free!
237
We still need to find a screwdriver.
238
Oh, there it is.
239
The callback audition has to be a new monologue.
240
Do you think the crucible or grease would show off the jeans more?
241
I was thinking I could do my hair off.
242
I shrunk the magic jeans.
243
Oh, no, God, take my jeans instead.
244
You have an audition to worry about.
245
You should go rest.
246
But it's the middle of the day.
247
Are you serious about this audition or not?
248
There was no way around it.
249
I was going to have to tell Sue the truth.
250
That a burglar broke in and stole only her jeans.
251
Hi, sweetie.
252
Mom, look.
253
I have the same jeans as Jennifer Love Hewitt.
254
Yeah. About that.
255
Sue, I have some bad news.
256
You know that new dryer that we have that we found that's just so new and so good.
257
It's really too good.
258
What are you talking about honey the dryer shrunk your jeans what i'm so so sorry i just feel terrible
259
that's okay it's not your fault i know but i just feel horrible don't feel horrible They were just genes.
260
And the truth is, you were right before.
261
It really is about what's inside that counts.
262
I just have to let my inner light shine through.
263
Okay, yeah, that's not what really happened.
264
How could you do this to me?
265
You just want to ruin my life!
266
You knew how important they were to me, and you didn't keep them safe!
267
You don't care about anyone but yourself!
268
I hate you!
269
Honey, you don't really feel that.
270
A lot of that is just hormones talking.
271
You're frustrated and disappointed.
272
I'm just going to give you some space, and we'll talk about it more when you've calmed down.
273
Okay, that didn't happen either.
274
Oh, yeah?
275
Well, you are no picnic to live with either.
276
You think I don't do anything for you?
277
Let me tell you something, Missy.
278
All I do are things for you.
279
And right now, I'm not sure it's worth it.
280
Then leave me alone!
281
You don't have to ask me twice.
282
Ah!
283
Oh, my God!
284
Yep, the crying, the mood swings, the unpredictable behavior.
285
It's a tough time.
286
Do you think you're laying around all summer?
287
You got another thing coming, getting a job.
288
My mom said the exact same thing, which is kind of why I came over here.
289
I thought you were gonna lifeguard at the pool again.
290
Dude, that job sucked.
291
My boss was always on me.
292
That chair's not for sleeping.
293
Stop hitting on girls and save that kid.
294
Pfft.
295
My boss sucked too.
296
Stop eating all the bologna samples.
297
Don't make boobs with the produce.
298
Yeah, mine was all, thanks for your great work.
299
We need a photo for your employee of the month plaque.
300
Hey, I got an idea.
301
This summer, why don't we ditch our bosses and just start our own business?
302
But who would be the boss?
303
I vote all of us.
304
Nice!
305
Three-way co-bosses!
306
Boo!
307
Jobs.
308
I'm not kidding.
309
Good afternoon!
310
We're the bosses of BossCo, and we're here to inform you we've recently begun services in your area.
311
Okay.
312
What do you do?
313
Well, let me ask you a question.
314
What do you need done?
315
We'll do that.
316
That's actually our motto.
317
With BossCo, you don't get any employees, just bosses, bringing the savings to you, the customer.
318
I'll give you $100 to remove that stump.
319
I'm sorry.
320
I thought you said $100.
321
I did.
322
All right.
323
Let's grip it, rip it, and launch it.
324
Ha!
325
Oh!
326
Okay, wait, I got it.
327
Boss train!
328
I get behind Darren.
329
Sean, you get behind me on three, we pull!
330
One, two, three!
331
Come on, boss train!
332
We can do it!
333
I think it moved!
334
No, that was my shoulder popping out!
335
Oh.
336
Okay, on three, push Darren's shoulder back in.
337
One, two, three!
338
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
339
Oh, oh, oh!
340
Oh!
341
Oh!
342
Oh!
343
Oh!
344
Oh!
345
Oh!
346
More, little more, little more.
347
Ah, just dump the whole thing.
348
We're down 20 bucks for shovels, 60 bucks for axes, and 30 bucks in gas and burn cream.
349
We gotta get this thing out just to break even.
350
Don't forget the 15 bucks for t-shirts, which was Sean's stupid idea.
351
Better than your stupid frisbee idea.
352
The frisbees are whimsical and will get our message out to the college community.
353
Dudes!
354
Listen to us!
355
We're turning into the very bosses we hate!
356
Axel's right.
357
Sorry, Darren.
358
It's all bringing in for a boss hug.
359
If I got you your light bulb, then can I go to the party?
360
Dammit, Brick, I don't have time for this.
361
People are going to be here any second.
362
Hi.
363
Am I early?
364
Wow, your wallpaper's sagging.
365
Poor Axe.
366
Frankie, stop.
367
We're out of time.
368
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
369
It's fine.
370
Everything is fine.
371
Oh, hey, honey.
372
How was school?
373
What's going on?
374
What is this?
375
Oh, I'm taking back my house.
376
I thought that was just yesterday.
377
No, no. I have tripped over my last tennis ball.
378
I have sat on my last joystick.
379
You guys are going to start keeping all your crap in your room.
380
So dig in this pile for what's yours, because anything that's left is going in the trash.
381
Oh, my God.
382
What did you do to the family room?
383
What did you do to the family room?
384
You like it?
385
I've always wanted it this way.
386
No, I don't like it.
387
It's like you're trying to pretend you never had us.
388
Dad, look what you did to the family room.
389
Oh, hey.
390
Looks great.
391
I know, right?
392
We actually have a pretty nice family room.
393
I'm not embarrassed to have people over anymore.
394
Don't worry.
395
We're not having people over.
396
Can one of you take me to the library?
397
Brick, do you not even notice what they did?
398
Oh, weird.
399
So, can one of you take me to the library?
400
I feel like reading about Peru.
401
No, Brick, sorry, can't.
402
Actually, won't.
403
I just got home from work, and I am going to eat my pizza for once while it's still hot. That is really annoying.
404
If you're really dying to find out about Peru, look it up online.
405
But I like books.
406
I like the feel of paper in my hands.
407
Well, I like the feel of pizza in my hand, so nobody's taking me anywhere right now.
408
God, if you don't want to do anything for us, why'd you even have kids?
409
Guys, babies are cute.
410
If you'd have come out teenagers, we might have had to rethink.
411
Great, you guys got the wrong pizza.
412
It has yellow things all over.
413
What is this?
414
Pineapple pizza?
415
Oh, my.
416
Still good, huh?
417
I still don't get it.
418
Why are you doing this?
419
What is this about?
420
You trying to teach us some kind of lesson?
421
Axel, you really think we have nothing better to do than sit around thinking up lessons to teach you?
422
This isn't about you.
423
Your mom and I love this pizza and we never get it.
424
Now we're getting it.
425
But we don't like this pizza.
426
You'll eat what we provide.
427
In the wild, when the lion brings back the zebra he just killed, the cubs don't get to say, we don't like zebra.
428
We wanted wildebeest.
429
When the lion brings back zebra, everybody eats zebra.
430
But I don't like zebra.
431
I want wildebeest.
432
Well, all we've got is zebra.
433
But the zebra has pineapple on it.
434
Wait, who's the lion in this story?
435
I'm the lion.
436
I'm the lion in all the stories.
437
So the day of the social worker visit had arrived, and we all pulled together to make a good impression.
438
Come on, look.
439
Take that off!
440
Damn it, Axel!
441
Take it off!
442
Ha-ha.
443
Don't hit me.
444
Not funny, Axel.
445
Not funny.
446
Hey!
447
Why are you crying?
448
I'm just so scared.
449
Honey, I'm going to give you a piece of advice that my dad gave me once.
450
He said, son, stuff those feelings down.
451
Stuff them down and eventually they'll go away.
452
And I have not cried since.
453
Okay, what do you think?
454
Shades open or closed?
455
No, closed looks like we're hiding something.
456
Open.
457
Open.
458
Oh, my God, the raccoons tore into the garbage.
459
They never got picked up.
460
Sue, get out there and clean that up.
461
OK, where is the Bible?
462
I want to put it on the coffee table.
463
You know, we don't have a real book anywhere, just People magazine.
464
Mike, quick, turn all the TVs to PBS.
465
What channel is that?
466
I don't know.
467
She's here.
468
Oh!
469
Oh!
470
You see?
471
It's clean!
472
That's why I never wash the windows!
473
Are you okay?
474
Listen, you can't get a welt on your head.
475
Not now!
476
Don't swell up, Sue.
477
Don't swell.
478
What are we gonna do?
479
It's very nice to meet you.
480
It's very nice to meet you, too.
481
Her head gets cold.
482
It's just nice to have you here.
483
It really is.
484
Can I get you something to drink?
485
No, I'd love some herbal tea.
486
Oh, no. I don't have herbal tea.
487
I mean, I know it's good for you, but I just don't like it.
488
I'm so sorry.
489
I'm so, so sorry I don't have herbal tea.
490
Oh, honestly, it's okay.
491
Look, don't worry.
492
It's better if everyone just stays relaxed, okay?
493
So I'm going to need to speak with each member of the family individually.
494
Great.
495
That sounds great.
496
We're not nervous.
497
So, how many hours a day would you say that you spend together as a family?
498
Just about every chance we get.
499
We love spending time together.
500
We're together all the time.
501
Two.
502
I don't know.
503

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.
