Pratica di Shadowing: UK Trains Be Like... (hint: it's chaos-) - Impara a parlare inglese con i video
Creazione lezione...
1
Wow, this is such an informational and definitely working departure board.
2
Oh my god, things really can't stop breaking on the UK railway.
3
Well, maybe the departure board broke because it can't handle how late this train is.
4
I mean, I've been waiting here for over an hour.
5
Oh well, at least I have a seat reserved for me, so it's not like I have to worry about not having a seat despite how crowded it is.
6
Okay, so is this my seat?
7
No, clearly not, which means that.
8
Hang on, what?
9
Oh no no no, have to sit on this dirty seat without a window for my 20 -minute journey?
10
Seriously?
11
Ah, why do you have to do this to me train?
12
First you're late, and now my seat ends up being this?
13
Okay, you know what, there must be a better seat somewhere on this train.
14
It just sucks that this train has barely started moving and things are already going wrong, at least for me anyway.
15
Aha, you know what, I can sit here.
16
I hope you don't mind me sitting here.
17
Oh no no no, I don't care at all.
18
In fact, I'm glad you came here, and you want to know why?
19
Sure, why?
20
It's because I'm an undercover ticket inspector.
21
Hang on, an undercover ticket inspector?
22
Since when was that a thing? Since forever.
23
Definitely.
24
Now can I see your ticket?
25
I mean, sure.
26
I have it right here.
27
Oh, what?
28
Please connect to an internet connection to view your ticket?
29
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
30
It was here just a moment ago.
31
What's the issue?
32
I don't have any mobile data, and so I don't have internet.
33
Oh, then just connect to the train's Wi -Fi.
34
I mean, I can try connecting to it.
35
it's taking a while to load.
36
Hey, don't rush me.
37
Wait, what?
38
Is the phone talking to me?
39
Yes, don't rush me.
40
I'm loading, can't you see?
41
Okay, sorry?
42
You know what?
43
I'll finish loading, but I'll give you a quarter of a sign -in page.
44
How about that?
45
Oh, I have to make an account to use the train's Wi -Fi?
46
And how is a quarter of the sign -in page going to help me?
47
Okay, fine.
48
I'll give you half of the sign -in page.
49
What?
50
No. Give me the entire sign -in page.
51
Why do you need my full name, and my house address, and especially my PIN?
52
I'm accessing a train's Wi -Fi, not my bank account.
53
We needed to make sure you're real.
54
I am real.
55
You know what, fine, I'll just enter some random stuff, and press on sign in.
56
Okay, I'm pressing on the sign in button.
57
Why is nothing happening?
58
Hello?
59
What's going on?
60
No. What?
61
What do you mean no?
62
What's going on?
63
Something wrong happened.
64
What?
65
What went wrong?
66
Hello?
67
Wefjitsio is not a valid first name.
68
What is that name?
69
Well, it's French.
70
Definitely.
71
You know what?
72
I'm going to clear everything and then give you a quarter of a sign -in page because of how you're acting.
73
What?
74
No. Okay, you know what?
75
This is why I never even try to connect to the train's Wi -Fi.
76
I see.
77
So I think I'll have to borrow somebody else's internet to get my ticket up.
78
The question is, who do I ask?
79
Good question.
80
Oh, wait, I know who to ask.
81
I'll be back ticket inspector, I promise.
82
Okay, so who else would have internet on this train, other than the richest people on this service?
83
AKA, first class.
84
I need to ask first class if I can borrow their internet, so that I can get my ticket up.
85
Alright, if anybody is going to have some internet I can borrow, it must be behind this door.
86
Oh jeez, I can immediately sense that everybody here is a billionaire.
87
Ah, hello there.
88
And what, may I ask, is a person of modest means doing in a place such as this?
89
Ah, do you mind if I borrow your internet quickly?
90
Out, I say, out at once.
91
What?
92
All I did is ask for some internet.
93
Out.
94
You know what?
95
Never mind.
96
Maybe someone else has internet here.
97
Hey, poor person.
98
Over here.
99
I've got some internet you can borrow.
100
Oh, wait, really?
101
My husband recently left the carriage.
102
If you find him and bring him back here, I'll give you some internet.
103
I mean, strange request. But shit.
104
Okay, what?
105
What?
106
What?
107
What the hell?
108
Why the hell is that door open?
109
Is the air conditioning broken or something?
110
Are you okay?
111
side is open.
112
Oh my god, what the hell?
113
Oh, not again.
114
Wait, what?
115
My husband must have jumped out of the train again.
116
Happens every single time.
117
I keep on telling him not to do it, and yet he still does it anyway.
118
Your husband?
119
No, I've had enough of first class, never going there ever again.
120
How can they even afford a first class ticket?
121
I myself could barely afford a standard class ticket with how expensive they are.
122
My ticket costs a million pounds? be kidding.
123
Alright then, does this toilet work?
124
Oh, really?
125
You too?
126
Why do none of the toilets work?
127
Oh my god, I definitely got scammed when I spent my life savings on my train ticket, and I can't even show it, because I have no internet.
128
That ticket inspector is going to be so mad.
129
Though hang on a second, how about I don't go back to that seat?
130
Yeah, you know what, I'm not going back to the ticket inspector, I can just find a seat here instead.
131
Aha, there we go, Why is the person in front of me partly inside their seat?
132
Wait a second, is my phone ringing?
133
Oh, not my mean boss.
134
I hate talking with him so much.
135
Let's see what he wants this time.
136
Let's just get to the point, eh?
137
Where the hell are you?
138
I'm on a train.
139
Are you sure?
140
Yes, it would be very concerning if I wasn't sure.
141
Well, it's just that I'm also on a train.
142
What train are you on?
143
Well, I got on an LNER Azuma service at Pitterborough at around 12 o 'clock.
144
Wait, really?
145
We're on the same train.
146
you following me?
147
I'm not following you.
148
I guess we just so happened to board the same train to work.
149
Duh.
150
Anyways, do you find the train seats delicious?
151
I'm sorry, what?
152
Well, it's just that I've eaten around five train seats so far and none of them are tasty.
153
In fact, they're all so disgusting.
154
In what world?
155
Why are you eating train seats?
156
Well, on the train seats, it says, "Let's eat your seat," so I decided to eat my seat.
157
What?
158
No. It says, "Let's eat at your seat." It doesn't say to eat Oh no. Oh no indeed.
159
Hello passengers, I regret to share that, due to someone near the front of the train eating a couple of train seats, we'll have to make an emergency stop.
160
You've got to be kidding.
161
work late today for a reason which isn't my fault, which I can't complain about.
162
Anyways, let me see just how much damage is done.
163
Okay passengers, I've got some good news and some bad news.
164
The good news is that the guy who ate the seats has now been kicked off.
165
Well, yay.
166
The bad news is, we're not going anywhere, because there's a faulty signal.
167
Ooh, of course.
168
Hey, wait a second, why did someone break into my cab?
169
Wait, what?
170
I asked to see a ticket from a guy on this train.
171
Oh no. And he just you.
172
You hear that, I'll find you.
173
And once I find you, I'll make sure you regret not showing me your ticket.
174
Yeah no I'm out.
175
No way I'm going to be able to explain anything to that ticket inspector, especially considering how furious he seems.
176
I don't know what he's planning to do once he finds me, but I'd rather not find out.
177
I need to find a place to hide on this train ASAP before he finds me.
178
Come on door, close.
179
Hang on, I nearly forgot.
180
There's an open door in first class.
181
I can use that train door to escape?
182
Should I though?
183
Yeah, you know what, I'm doing it.
184
I am so not in the mood to deal with a furious ticket inspector today.
185
Okay, now I need to run away as far as possible.
186
Goodbye train, can't believe how everything which could have gone wrong with that trip went wrong, like what is it with my luck?
187
Hang on, is someone calling me?
188
Oh no, you've got to be kidding me.
189
Oi, why are you running away from the train?
190
Oh my god, it's you.
191
Siwo, 54.
192
Considering how you're calling me, I'm guessing that I'm in a simulation and everything which just happened is fake.
193
What, what do you mean?
194
Don't play dumb, it seems like every few months, you put me into some kind of simulation while I'm asleep because you think it's fun.
195
Okay fine, you're in a simulation and everything which happened is fake, happy?
196
Not necessarily.
197
that it was a simulation.
198
After all, How could your boss call you if you didn't have any mobile data?
199
And besides, in real life, you couldn't even board a British train, because there would be a railway replacement or a strike going on.
200
Yeah, good point to be honest.
201
Bit concerning how you remember me though.
202
Well, I still remember the last time you put me in a simulation pretty well.
203
When you decided to turn me into a train guard
204
and I had to deal with so many ridiculous passengers and events, some tickets.
205
Hey, can I have your ticket?
206
Well, sorry, but my ticket kind of went to Tesco.
207
What?
208
Okay then.
209
Can I have your ticket?
210
My ticket is seated to go to Marks and Spencer.
211
I definitely understood that.
212
And can I have your ticket, please?
213
I ate my ticket.
214
Yum yum.
215
Oh my god, what?
216
You can get a penalty fare for not having a ticket.
217
I'll just eat the penalty fare.
218
Yum yum.

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.
