It was really scary, Jerry.

My heart is still beating fast.

But it was a great movie.

11
By the way, Jerry, I want to say something.

You look very handsome today.

This clean white shirt is nice and you smell really good too.
14
Oh.
15
Uh, thank you, Mary.
16
You look very beautiful today too.
17
I am happy you like the movie and I am happy you like how I look.
18
You look a little shy now.
19
That is cute.
20
Well, I'm just relaxed.
21
Hey, are you hungry?
22
Do you want to get some pizza after this?
23
I know a very cozy pizza place near here.
24
Pizza sounds great.
25
But Jerry, before we go to eat, can I ask you something?
26
Sure.
27
What is it?
28
You like me, don't you?
29
I...
30
What?
31
You like me, not as a friend.
32
I don't know what you mean.
33
We are just...
34
Jerry, you put a love note under my milk teacup.
35
You remembered my favorite drink today without asking.
36
And right now, you're wearing a very nice white shirt, and you smell really good, too.
37
You have never dressed like this before.
38
I just...
39
I want it to look nice today.
40
Jerry, tell me.
41
Okay.
42
Yes, I like you.
43
Is it really that obvious?
44
A little bit.
45
Sorry.
46
Does everyone know?
47
Just me and Linda and Amy and probably a few other people at the lunch table.
48
Oh, no. Don't be embarrassed.
49
I think it is actually very sweet.
50
Sweet, right.
51
Sweet is not good.
52
Why not?
53
Because sweet means you see me like a little brother.
54
That is not what I mean.
55
I mean it genuinely.
56
You are funny and kind and I really like spending time with you.
57
But I don't have feelings for you like that.
58
I'm really sorry, Jerry.
59
Okay.
60
I will be okay.
61

Practice Tips
To effectively use the shadowing technique in this lesson, listen to the dialogue multiple times, focusing on mimicking the speakers' intonation and speed. The natural flow of conversation provides a perfect opportunity for English speaking practice. Start by listening carefully to the dialogue, then play it again, pausing after each sentence to repeat what you hear. This will help you internalize the rhythm and tone of English conversation.
Using a shadowing app might assist you in this process. Many such apps allow you to slow down audio or repeat specific phrases, making it easier to practice at a comfortable pace. Remember to pay attention to how the speakers express their emotions through tone and body language, which are important aspects of engaging in social interactions.
To maximize your learning experience, consider pairing this lesson with videos available on platforms like learn English with YouTube. Engaging with diverse content not only reinforces your vocabulary but also introduces you to different speaking styles. Be sure to utilize the content in this lesson as a foundation for building more advanced conversational skills in the future.
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.
