1
So what are you doing now?
2
I have some homework to finish.
3
Okay.
4
Then I'll leave you this last little trick.
5
You bought a copy?
6
I told you I'd lend you mine.
7
It is yours.
8
You stole my book.
9
Nope.
10
Borrowed it.
11
Okay.
12
That's not called a trick.
13
That's called a felony.
14
I just want to put some notes in the margins for you.
15
What?
16
You've read this before.
17
About 40 times.
18
I thought you said you didn't read much.
19
Well, what is much?
20
Good night, Rory.
21
Good night, Dodger.
22
Dodger.
23
Figure it out.
24
Oliver Twist.
25
Do you understand English but freeze when it's time to speak?
26
Today we are going to practice shadowing with a scene from Gilmore Girls.
27
Shadowing is one of the best ways to improve your pronunciation, speaking rhythm and listening skills.
28
All you have to do is listen and repeat right after the characters.
29
Don't worry if you can't keep up at first.
30
Just try your best and follow along.
31
I'll help you.
32
Let's get started!
33
Hey.
34
Hey, yourself.
35
What are you doing out here?
36
I need something for school.
37
What about you?
38
Oh, yeah.
39
Same thing.
40
Uh -huh.
41
So, that was quite a disappearing act you pulled the other night.
42
Yeah, potlucks and Tupperware parties aren't really my thing.
43
Too cool for school, huh?
44
Yes, that is me.
45
What are you doing?
46
Oh, this?
47
Nothing.
48
Just another little disappearing act.
49
Little tip?
50
Yeah?
51
If you ever want to speak to me again, don't pull that out of my ear.
52
So I assume the nose is off limits, so...
53
Any place you wouldn't naturally find a coin, let's leave it that way.
54
So what are you doing now?
55
I have some homework to finish.
56
Okay.
57
Then I'll leave you this last little trick.
58
You bought a copy?
59
I told you I'd lend you mine.
60
It is yours.
61
You stole my book.
62
Nope.
63
Borrowed it.
64
Okay.
65
That's not called a trick.
66
That's called a felony.
67
I just want to put some notes in the margins for you.
68
What?
69
You've read this before.
70
About 40 times.
71
I thought you said you didn't read much.
72
Well, what is much?
73
Night, Rory.
74
Good night, Dodger.
75
Dodger.
76
Pick her it up.
77
Oliver Twist.
78
first things first we need to understand some difficult words in order to speak with intention
79
so let's do this in a more fun way we're going to connect these words
80
while we talk about gilmore girls in gilmore girls lorelei is
81
quite chatty she really likes to talk a lot even in
82
weird situations whenever things get awkward lorelei always pulls a trick
83
to make us laugh She always comes up with a clever idea
84
or does something unexpected to make the situation better When we say someone pulls a trick, we mean they do something clever or unexpected In Stars Hollow,
85
people love community events like poglags Everyone brings food to share
86
And sometimes people even host Tupperware parties They invite friends over to eat In Luke's diner,
87
the area behind the corner is usually off -limits
88
So customers can't go there Only Luke
89
and the people who work there can Except
90
and maybe for Orly We all saw how in love he is for her
91
That it doesn't matter what she needs Luke would probably lend her anything A cup,
92
a book, some money He'll help her every time Lent means giving something to someone
93
and expecting it back later In the scene, Brody says You stole my book but Jess probably thinks he just borrowed it.
94
Borrow is the opposite of lend.
95
If I lend you a book, you borrow it.
96
Rory is joking a little here.
97
A felony is a serious crime, so she's acting like taking her book was a much bigger deal than it really was.
98
Then we have Jess.
99
He never wrote in class, but he always left little notes on the size of his books.
100
Those little spaces nets to the texts are called martians
101
and he usually wrote with a pencil so if he made a mistake he could erase it and figure it out.
102
Before we start shadowing, let's look at a few pronunciation changes.
103
Native speakers don't always pronounce every word clearly.
104
They connect sounds and shorten words.
105
For example, what are you doing out here?
106
Often sounds more like, what are you doing out here?
107
What are you doing out here?
108
The words connect together and doing becomes doing.
109
Another example, let's leave it away.
110
Can sound more like, let's leave it that way.
111
Let's leave it that way the beginning becomes very quick
112
so it's easy to miss and finally
113
so what are you doing now often sounds more like
114
so what are you doing now
115
so what are you doing now the words blend together
116
and some sounds disappear that's why shadowing is
117
so useful it helps you hear english the way native speakers actually say it
118
so now let's start shadowing i'll highlight the words
119
so you can remember the minutes later
120
but the most important thing is to focus on repeating the
121
dialogues to make this first step easier i'll break it down into sections
122
and go slowly so the process is more effective good luck
123
hey hey yourself what are you doing out here i needed something for school
124
what about you oh yeah same thing Uh -huh.
125
So, that was quite a disappearing act.
126
What did you pull the other night?
127
Potlucks and Tupperware parties aren't really my thing.
128
Too cool for school, huh?
129
Yes, that is me.
130
What are you doing?
131
Oh, this?
132
Nothing.
133
Just another little disappearing act.
134
Little tip?
135
Yeah?
136
If you ever want to speak to me again, don't pull that out of my ear.
137
So I assume the nose is off lens, so...
138
Any place you wouldn't naturally find a coin, let's leave it that way.

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.
