Is tourism destroying cities?
2

3

There are four ways that tourism can affect cities.

Overcrowding, pollution, bad behavior, and rising prices.

13

27
Like with Airbnb, an accommodation app where users can share their homes with tourists.
28
It has grown enormously with over 5 million lodgings across 81,000 cities.
29
But it has its downsides.

43
Thank you.

Dicas de Prática

Para melhorar a pronúncia em inglês, sugerimos que você utilize a técnica de shadowing enquanto assiste ao vídeo. Preste atenção à velocidade e ao tom do falante original. Tente seguir a fala imediatamente após ouvi-la, imitando a entonação e a pronúncia. Focar na shadow speech de qualidade irá ajudá-lo não apenas a memorizar o vocabulário, mas também a internalizar a forma natural de expressão dos falantes nativos.

Se você perceber que o ritmo está rápido, comece pausando o vídeo após cada frase e repetindo em voz alta. Com a técnica do shadowspeaks, você pode repetir as falas múltiplas vezes até se sentir confortável. Além disso, preste atenção à forma como o falante expressa emoções e ênfases; isso é crucial para a sua própria forma de se comunicar.

Por fim, não esqueça de praticar regularmente. A utilização consistente da técnica de shadowing em inglês permitirá que você melhore gradualmente sua fluência e confiança ao falar. Boa prática!

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.
