Shall we start with the t -shirt?
90
I think it's a good present because she can wear it when she goes home.
91
That's true.
92
The picture on it will remind her of the visit, but it might be difficult to choose the right size.
93
What about the necklace?
94
It looks lovely and it's easy to carry.
95
However, it might be quite expensive.
96
I agree.
97
Also, we don't know if she likes wearing jewelry.
98
Do you think a box of chocolates would be good?

I think a present she can keep would be better.
101
Good point.
102
How about the book?
103
She could learn more about the place she's visiting.
104
Yes, especially if it has lots of pictures.
105
But she might not enjoy reading.
106
What do you think about the game?
107
It could be fun.
108
They could play it together during the visit, and she could play it with her family at home.
109
That's a nice idea, but she might already have a similar game.
110
There's also a vase.
111
It's pretty, but it could break in her suitcase.
112
I'd prefer the photo at a frame.
113
Me too.
114
A photo of the two friends would remind her of their time together.
115
It's more personal than the other presents.
116
Exactly.
117
She could put it in her bedroom and keep it for years.
118
It probably wouldn't cost too much either.
119
So shall we choose the photo in a frame?
120
Yes, I think that's the best choice.
121
It's a lovely way to remember their friendship.
122
Which of these presents would you prefer to have?
123
Why?
124
I'd prefer to have the t -shirt because it looks nice and is useful.
125
I could wear it when I go out with my friends.

Yes, I do.
130
I like choosing something special for my friends and family.
131
I feel happy when they like my presents.
132
I don't think a present needs to be expensive, but it should show that you care.
133
What was the last present you bought for someone?
134
The last present I bought was a book for my best friend's birthday.
135
She enjoys reading, so I chose a story about friendship.
136
I also wrote a short message inside the book.
137
She was really pleased with it.
138
What's the best present you've ever received?
139

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
