274
They're so excited for their milk.
275

277
I think you want to take my finger off.
278
Look at this one.
279
This one's a littler one.
280
Yeah, you look like almost a baby.
281
and it's so pretty it's got like really
282
kind of black a little bit of brown and then you got the white It's like,
283
"I'm hungry, where's my bucket of milk?" One thing about it here, it's noisy.
284
Because you got the cows...
285
mowing a lot, but it is also stinky.
286
Whew, smelly.
287
Dairy farms and cattle farms.
288
Cattle is more than one cow and they are nuts.
289
Not a place that you want to go if you want to smell good stuff.
290
It's pretty smelly.
291
Okay, let's go see what else there is around here.
292
Are you peeking through?
293
Are you trying to see where your milk is?
294
Yeah.
295
They're so ready for their milk.
296
It's time to eat, huh?
297
So this is part of being on a dairy farm.
298
The chores, we call it chores.
299
It's when you have work to do,
300
either feeding or moving them around or,
301
you know, there are a lot of things that one needs to do whenever it comes to chores on a dairy farm.
302
And they usually will get up at Ralph.
303
two or three o 'clock in the morning to come and milk the cows and to feed the cows.
304
So it's a really early morning.
305
of work to do and just throughout the day there is a lot of work so there are
306
could be maybe five to ten people at a time doing something different around here,
307
driving the tractor, cleaning out the stalls so The stalls,
308
that's where the cows are.
309
They're, you know, kind of in their own little area.
310
And so it kind of gets messy because, you know, they do go to the bathroom.
311
They poop a lot and so you gotta clean that up.
312
Basically we call it clean up the muck.
313
And other things are going around and watering the cows.
314
The older cows they drink water and They also,
315
you know, have hay bales that they got to move to feed the cows and things like that.
316
So, You can hear the baby cows.
317
They're mooing a lot because they know it's time to eat. So.
318
But it's a lot of work on a dairy farm.
319
It's an everyday, all day type of job.
320
And you know it's just If something you're passionate about, then you know it's definitely worth it.
321
So and So There's not a lot of time to be able to take breaks and take vacations, just so you know.
322
But it's beautiful out here and...
323
It's kind of fun.
324
Now, the...
325
Baby cows, they do like to suck on your hands.
326
But I'm not going to do that today.
327
This one was just getting ready to take their bucket out.
328
He had the handle.
329
That's funny.
330
I'm going to show you.
331
- - This one he was trying to get the bucket out.
332
He had the handle in his mouth.
333
That was kind of funny or she, I'm not sure if it's a he or she. So...
334
- Thank you.
335
But it's like, I am ready, where's my milk?
336
The lady that is doing the chores, her name is Mary Jane,
337
and she grew up on a dairy farm and She married a dairy farmer,
338
and so her whole life has been on a dairy farm.
339
And this is how, what she's done her whole life.
340
And she is now getting ready to be 73 years old.
341
And she's still doing this daily.
342

343
and the milking and stuff.

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.
