Well, we're talking about a situation in a restaurant, and two people are involved, the waiter and the customer.
9
And I don't want to say anymore.
10
Okay, don't say anymore.

Let's just listen to this dialogue and we'll be back later to explain it.

It comes with either soup or salad and a complimentary glass of wine, sir.

109
You know what?
110
I'll just go grab a burger across the street.
111
Marco, why did this waiter get angry at the customer?
112
Well, he basically wasted the waiter's time.
113
I mean, this guy comes into the restaurant, he is not very polite, and he's asking all these questions, and in the end he just gets up and says,
114
I'll just go grab a burger across the street.
115
Yeah, and I also think that this guy was a lot more casual than the place he was in, right?
116
Yeah, yeah.
117
I think this was a nice, fancy restaurant.
118
So I think he was in the wrong place.
119
Yeah.
120
So how many times, Marco, tell me, do you really have fast food a week?
121
Fast food, let's see, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
122
No, I'm just kidding.
123
Oh, my God.
124
No, no. I think I get fast food maybe once a week, once or twice a week.
125
All right.
126
Talking about fast food made me hungry, so I think I'm going to go grab something to eat myself.
127
Yeah, me too.
128
All right.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
