Hey, Mum.
155
I've cleaned my room.
156
Come and see how tidy it is.
157
Well done, Michael.
158
Wow, it looks great in here.
159
I can see the floor again.
160
Ha ha.
161
Very funny, Mum.
162
Look at all these things that I've found.
163
I haven't seen them for a long time.
164
Here's my camera.
165
Where did you find that?
166
It was in my rucksack.
167
I took it with me
168
when we went on the class visit to the castle last month and didn't take it out when I got home.
169
Great!
170
You can take it camping next weekend.
171
Oh, yes.
172
Can you see the letter E?
173
Now you listen and write a letter in each box.
174
What else did you find?
175
Here's the torch that I got for my birthday.
176
I thought it was in my cupboard with the shoes, but it wasn't.
177
It was on the shelf behind some books.
178
How did it get there?
179
I've no idea.
180
I'll take that camping too.
181
Yes, you'll need it.
182
And look what else I found.
183
It's William's DVD.
184
It was behind my computer.
185
Oh dear, you've had that for months and you must give it back to him.
186
Yes, I know.
187
I'll give it to him at school tomorrow.
188
OK.
189
Did you find anything else?
190
Yes, I found my favourite football.
191
How can you lose a football, Michael?
192
I don't know.
193
I thought it was in the garden, but it was under my bed.
194
I'm very happy to find it again.
195
And look, do you remember this?
196
Oh, yes.
197
It's the toy train you had when you were very young.
198
You played with that all the time.
199
Where did you find that?
200
It was under my shoes, in my cupboard.
201
I don't want it anymore.
202
Shall we give it to Robert next door?
203
That's a great idea.
204
He loves trains.
205

207
You'll need to take that camping too.
208
Yes, I did.
209
Great.
210
Where was it?
211
It was behind the armchair, under some magazines.
212
OK.
213
Well, maybe if you clean your room more often, you won't lose so many things.
214
I'll try, Mum.
215
Now listen to part three again.

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.
