Thanks for the ride, Uncle Ben.
2
Now, wait a minute, Peter.
3
We, uh, we need to talk.
4
Well, we can talk later.
5
Well, we can talk now.
6
If you let me.
7
What do we have to talk about?
8
Why now?
9
Because we haven't talked at all for so long, your Aunt May and I don't even know who you are anymore.
10
You shirk your chores, you have all those weird experiments in your room, you start fights at school.
11
I didn't start that fight, I told you that.
12
Well, you sure as hell finished.
13
What was I supposed to do, run away?
14
No, no, you're not supposed to run away, but...
15
Pete, look, you're changing.
16
I know, I went through exactly the same thing at your age.
17
No, not exactly.
18
Peter, these are the years when a man changes into the man he's gonna become the rest of his life.
19
Just be careful when you change into them.
20
This guy, Flash Thompson, he probably deserved what happened.
21
But just because you can beat him up doesn't give you the right to.
22
Remember, with great power comes great responsibility.
23
Are you afraid that I'm gonna turn into some kind of criminal?
24
Quit worrying about me, okay?
25
Something's different.
26
I'll figure it out.
27
Stop lecturing me, please.
28
I don't mean to lecture and I don't mean to preach.
29
And I know I'm not your father.
30
Then stop pretending to be!
31
Right.
32
I'll pick you up here at 10.
33
Thank you.

About This Lesson

You're practicing English with ""With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" Scene - Spider-Man (2002) Movie CLIP HD" using the Shadowing technique — a method originally developed for professional interpreter training.

Focus on sounding like the speaker — not just repeating words. With 15–30 minutes of daily practice, you'll build real-world speaking confidence.

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.
