1
Jerry, this is the third time you've been late this week.
2
You were needed in that meeting today.
3
Fortunately, the deal was done, but it almost didn't happen.
4
I'm really sorry, but I was stuck in traffic.
5
My car was sitting in the same spot for 30 minutes.
6
If you're getting stuck in traffic every day, then you should leave the house earlier.
7
I know, but that isn't the problem.
8
Today was the first time that I was stuck in traffic.
9
And it wasn't normal rush hour traffic either.
10
What do you mean?
11
Today, traffic was stopped by a zebra.
12
A zebra.
13
Yeah, I saw it.
14
The zebra walked right in front of my car.
15
It was almost hit by another car.
16
Other animals were seen on the freeway too.
17
It was crazy.
18
You expect me to believe that you were delayed by a zebra?
19
It's true.
20
It was talked about on the radio.
21
You should listen to the report.
22
It is thought that the animals escaped from the zoo.
23
I'm going to have to check out your story.
24
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for now. But what about yesterday?
25
You were an hour late.
26
Yesterday, I was driving to work when my car was stopped by a policeman.
27
I was pulled over and the policeman told me I was under arrest.
28
Really?
29
Why?
30
The policeman said that my car had been seen at the scene of a crime.
31
It sounds like you're making up stories. Did that really happen?
32
It's all true.
33
When I was pulled over, the policeman asked me to get out of the car.
34
My hands were handcuffed behind my back.
35
He said that my car had been seen on the camera of a gas station that had been robbed.
36
Well, you made it to work somehow.
37
How did you get away?
38
The policeman got a call on his radio saying that the robbers had been caught by another policeman.
39
They were being held in custody.
40
The policeman let me go, but half an hour had already passed.
41
I drove to work as quickly as I could.
42
Well, if that's true, then I understand. But what about Monday?
43
I remember you coming in late then, too.
44
That was because my car was stolen.
45
I woke up Monday morning and my car was gone.
46
The police were notified immediately.
47
I was forced to drive my wife's car and drop her off at her workplace, which took some extra time.
48
I see.
49
Why didn't you tell me?
50
It wasn't a big deal at the time.
51
My car was found by the police a few hours later, and I was only 15 minutes late to work.
52
Okay, but try to be on time from now on.
53
I need to be able to rely on you, especially for meetings like the one we had today.
54
I promised to try to be on time, but I need you to understand that none of these things were my fault.
55
I mean, I was held up by a zebra.
56
How could I have predicted that?
57
These things happened to me, and there was nothing I could do to avoid them.
58
Yes, I agree, if your stories are true.
59
But come on, they're a little unbelievable.
60
Well, they're true.
61
I hope you won't hold them against me. And this just in.
62
The men who had been robbing the gas stations in the area have been arrested by the police.
63
They had stolen the car of a local man.
64
But they were forced to go on foot once the stolen vehicle was found by the police.
65

85
Yeah?

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
