1
Morning, everyone! Can you all hear me okay?
2
Morning, Mark! Yes, loud and clear.
3
Great. Has anyone heard from Tom this morning?
4
He messaged me. His internet has been slow all week.
5
Hi, everyone! Sorry I'm late. Can you see me?
6
Ha, Tom, your picture has frozen. You look like a statue!
7
Wait, really? But I can see you moving!
8
Okay, you're moving again... but your voice keeps cutting out.
9
Tom, it might be your Wi-Fi. Where's your router?
10
Well... it's downstairs, and I'm working in the bedroom.
11
Try turning off your camera. That usually helps a lot.
12
Okay, camera's off. Is my voice any clearer now?
13
Yes, much better! I can hear every word.
14
Right, let's begin. Tom, could you share the sales update?
15
Tom? We can't hear anything. I think you're on mute!
16
Ugh, not again! And let me turn my camera back on.
17
So, good news. Last month we sold more than we expected—
18
Wait, Tom! There's a cat walking across your keyboard!
19
Oh no, Biscuit! She's just typed something in the chat!
20
Don't worry. I think she agrees with your numbers.
21
I'm so sorry, that's my doorbell. Back in one minute!
22
Okay, while he's away... Jess, how's the new website going?
23
Good news! The design is finished, and the client loves it!
24
Wow, that's brilliant! When can we launch it?
25
If testing goes well, we'll launch next Friday.
26
Ugh, I'm back. The parcel wasn't even for me!
27
Ha! Well, we finished the agenda without you.
28
Great... So, can Biscuit give the sales update next time?
29
Ha, sure, as long as she stays off the keyboard!
30
Deal! Thanks, everyone, and sorry for all the chaos.

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。
