Prática de Shadowing: I'm NOT Testifying Against My Mentor | Suits - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

Criando lição...
1
Tell me about your relationship with Cameron Dennis.
2
Vague.
3
Did you and District Attorney Cameron Dennis work closely together?
4
He was my boss.
5
He supervised all my cases.
6
And were you personally close?
7
Subjective.
8
A judge would allow it.
9
And yet there's not one here.
10
Do you really think by deposing him on the stand, you're going to intimidate him?
11
I think deposing him here will let him know what it will be like if this evidence is brought forward at trial.
12
You're not getting to trial.
13
If your client doesn't perjure himself right now, I won't have to.
14
Were you and Cameron Dennis close?
15
Personally?
16
He was my mentor.
17
It's a hard relationship to define.
18
Moving on, counselor.
19
All right.
20
We don't have to talk about Mr. Dennis.
21
Let's talk about you, Mr. Spector.
22
In two years, you handled 18,362 cases.
23
36 cases a day.
24
That's beyond impressive.
25
Thank you.
26
You took 147 to trial, winning them all.
27
Don't go to trial if you're not gonna win.
28
Why'd you leave?
29
An attorney by the name of Jessica Pearson helped me get through law school, and she felt that I could use trial experience.
30
But I always planned on ending up at her firm and paying her back by earning that firm outrageous settlements.
31
How am I doing?
32
Could do better.
33
You two think that this is a joke?
34
Argumentative.
35
You're damn right it's argumentative.
36
Because he knows that laws have been broken, and he has an obligation to report it.
37
Ms. Leeds...
38
But if this is the way you want to play it, the Attorney General has given me a broad mandate to uncover what went on.
39
And it need not be limited to Mr. Dennis.
40
Were you part of the problem, Mr. Spector?
41
Vague.
42
I'll rephrase.
43
In your capacity as Assistant District Attorney in the county of New York, did you knowingly suppress evidence in violation of the ABA Rules of Conduct,
44
the NDAA standards, and the New York State Bar Rule 8.4, Section C?
45
My client would like to exercise his Fifth Amendment rights at this time.
46
I hear you botched the settlement by negotiating against yourself.
47
I didn't...
48
You let Lewis know the one thing that was most important to our client.
49
Yes, I made a mistake, but Lewis made one too.
50
Well, he didn't mention that.
51
Yes, he knows what our client wants, but now we know the one thing his client wants.
52
She doesn't care about winning, Harvey.
53
She just wants our client to lose.
54
Okay, well, that's good.
55
So what's next?
56
We lose.
57
We give her the tabloid.
58
Well, how does that make our client happy?
59
We let Madison have the paper, and then we take everyone who works there and we start a new one.
60
They all love Kelsey.
61
Nothing but the truth is just a name.
62
We let Madison have it.
63
I've taught you a thing or two.
64
Well, I see that you're up to speed.
65
Well, as am I.
66
Um, I noticed there were some employee issues at the tabloid.
67
You know, contracts about to expire.
68
So I just want to let you guys know that I, uh, went ahead and locked up all the key employees.
69
Just to protect us.
70
Since we're all.. working on this together.
71
Right?
72
Mm-hmm.
73
Good.
74
He knows.
75
He can't.
76
He does.
77
I was careful.
78
I deleted every file from the server.
79
The only time any paper trail left my locked desk is when I faxed it to Kelsey.
80
You faxed it from the large machine
81
that stores all the information you put in it to be printed back later by anyone who has your code?
82
He can't do that.
83
We have a Chinese wall thingy.
84
Oh, God, he's gonna beat us, isn't he?
85
Look, he knows what we're up to, but he couldn't keep his tactics to himself.
86
So we can use that against him.
87
And that's how we'll crush Lewis.
88
Refresher course, Harvey.
89
You and Lewis aren't opponents on this one.
90
You're working together.
91
Like Captain and Tennille?
92
If so, he's Tennille. Who?
93
You need to come with me.
94
What, am I in trouble?
95
Yeah, Harvey.
96
You are.
97
You gonna buy me a drink before you screw me?
98
Sit down, Harvey.
99
I just know what she has to say.
100
You got me trembling in my boots.
101
You're a small fish, and you don't even swim in the pond anymore.
102
But if I have to eat you alive to get to Cameron Dennis, I will.
103
This is my case against him.
104
Falsifying DNA tests, coerced confessions, testimony buried.
105
You have all this, why do you need me? Because this is circumstantial.
106
You have the crimes, but you can't physically tie them to Cameron.
107
He's a dirty public servant, and I think it's why you left.
108
Your record was too good to just walk away.
109
Maybe I got greedy.
110
Harvey.
111
I'm not testifying.
112
You're being stubborn.
113
And this isn't one where you get to make the call.
114
I'm sorry.
115
I've done all I can.
116
It wasn't just his cases he cheated on.
117
Hector Avila, take a look.
118
You think you were really that great?
119
You think your great track record was because of your skill? because of your skill.
120
I got two theories here, Harvey.
121
Either you're wasting your time protecting a man who screwed you from the beginning, or you didn't just know he did this.
122
You participated, in which case I'll have you disbarred.
123
Thank you.

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.
