His name's Michael.

He is really.

He just wanted to win the match.
55
Look at that woman there.
56
She's taking a picture of you.
57
Yes, that's my mum, Daisy.
58
She tried to take a picture of my goal, but she didn't get one.

She isn't very good with cameras.
60
Never mind.
61
This is a good photograph of your goal, isn't it?

Oh, look!

Your mum's dropped one of her gloves on the ground.

Oh, yes.

I'll go and tell her.
66
I'm glad you enjoyed your match.
67
But did you win?
68
No, we didn't.

We weren't very lucky.

Never mind.

It was an exciting game.

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
