Are you serious?

What about your job then?

I can quit later.

183
and he wanted to know whether I could come up with the other half.
184
How much exactly?
185
$40,000.
186
What?
187
Where on earth are we going to get that kind of money?
188
Well, we have $25,000 saved up,
189
and we could, um, take out a bank loan for the rest.
190
I don't know what to say.
191
It's a huge risk.
192
I'm sure it's going to be a very successful business.
193
Does David know anything about setting up a business?
194
Of course he does.
195
He majored in business.
196
Look, he's given me a copy of his business plan.

205
and it's past the due date.
206
We are being charged a late fee of 10%.
207
I have the notice right here in this drawer.

Take a look.
209
There must be some mistake.
210
The due date is in one week, next Friday.
211
I'll call and talk to customer service first thing in the morning.
212
I'm sure it's a mix-up.
213
I really hope so.
214
The last time we were late with the payment,
215
I told them that the check was in the mail,
216
but they didn't buy it That's different.
217
Don't worry about it I'm sure I'll get it straightened out Worst comes to worst,
218
we're only a month late I know I can count on you to take care of it Yes,
219
leave it to me.
220
I'll take care of it tomorrow.
221
It's as good as done Okay, darling Good morning, doctor.
222
Good morning, Alex.
223
How can I help you?
224
The side of my face is swollen again,
225
and it's got an itchy rash on it.
226
It appeared a few days ago.
227
I had already come to see you about this a few months ago, if you remember.
228
Yes, I remember.
229
I gave you some ointment then, I think.
230
What happened to the rash when you put it on?
231
It cleared up after a month or so,
232
but it's come back again I see,
233
are there any animals in your house by any chance?
234
Well, I take care of my neighbor's cat when she is away And I suppose she's away at the moment, right?
235
Yes, that's right Were you also looking after it when you last had the rash?
236
Yes, I was actually You might be allergic to cats Really?
237
It never crossed my mind that I might be allergic to cats So what do you advise me to do about it?
238
You should try to avoid the cat Can't you ask somebody else to take care of it while your neighbor is away?
239
Yes, I can I'll try to find somebody else then to look after it Fine I'm also going to prescribe two medicines,
240
a cream and some tablets.
241
The tablets should reduce the swelling,
242
and the cream should clear up the rash.
243
How should I take the tablets?
244
Take one tablet in the morning and one tablet in the evening,
245
30 minutes before meals.
246
What about the cream?
247
You should apply it twice a day.
248
Squeeze out a fingertip-sized amount of cream and spread it in a thin layer over the area of irritated skin.
249
How long is it likely to be before the rash clears up?
250
If it hasn't gone in two weeks,
251
come back and see me.
252
Thank you, Doctor!

Praticar conversação em inglês utilizando vídeos é uma excelente maneira de desenvolver suas habilidades de fala de forma prática e dinâmica. Neste vídeo, passamos por diálogos cotidianamente usados, permitindo que você compreenda não apenas o vocabulário, mas também a fluidez e a entonação natural. Ao se envolver em conversas reais, como as apresentadas, você ganha confiança e aprende a se expressar de maneira mais eficiente em situações inesperadas. Com a técnica de shadowing, você poderá repetir as falas enquanto ouve, aprimorando sua pronúncia e ritmo. Essa abordagem é ideal para quem deseja aprender inglês com YouTube, aproveitando o conteúdo autêntico disponível na plataforma.
Gramática e Expressões em Contexto
- Who were you talking to just now? - Esta pergunta demonstra o uso de passado contínuo, uma forma importante para se referir a ações que estavam ocorrendo em um momento específico.
- He's going to leave next month. - Aqui observamos o uso de "going to" para expressar intenções futuras, uma estrutura essencial para conversas sobre planos.
- How did he get that job? - O uso do passado simples na forma interrogativa é crucial para fazer perguntas sobre eventos que já ocorreram.
- Is it your first time here? - Essa expressão é frequentemente usada em diálogos, ajudando a suavizar a conversa e a tornar o ambiente mais amigável.

Armadilhas Comuns de Pronúncia
No roteiro do vídeo, algumas palavras e expressões podem apresentar desafios de pronúncia. Palavras como assistant, company e conference possuem sons que não são encontrados em português e podem gerar confusão. Além disso, o sotaque pode variar; escutar diferentes falantes é essencial para a prática de shadowspeak. Escutar e repetir frases como “He’s going to work in St. Louis” pode ajudá-lo a se familiarizar com a sonoridade do inglês falado e a evitar erros comuns. Tente prestar atenção à entonação e ao ritmo ao praticar, uma parte fundamental do método shadow speaks.
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
