Prática de Shadowing: Ice Cube - It Was A Good Day - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

I'm going to go to the next video.

Just waking up in the morning, gotta thank God I don't know, but today seems kinda odd No barking from the dog,

no smoke And mama cooked the breakfast with no hug I got my grub on, but didn't pig out Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out

Hooked it up for later as I hit the door Thinking will I live another 24?

I gotta go, cause I got me a drop top And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop Had to stop at a red light Looking in my mirror,

not a jack or in sight

And everything is alright I got a beat from Kim

And she could do it all night Called up the homies at a I'm axing y'all.

Which part are y'all playing basketball?

Get me on the court and I'm troubled.

Last week messed around and got a triple-double.

Freaking brothers every way like MJ.

I can't believe today was a good day.

Drove to the pad

and hit the showers Didn't even get no static from the

cowards Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me Saw the police and they roll right past me No flexing,

didn't even look in a brother's direction as I ran the intersection Went to show Dog's House, they was watching yo MTV raps What's the haps on the craps?

Shake em up, shake em up, shake em up, shake em I'm in a circle of homies and watch me break them with a 7,

7-11, 7-11, 7 even back door little jump, I picked up the cash flow,

then we play bones, and I'm yelling domino, plus nobody I know got killed in South Central LA, today was a good day

Left my homie's house paid Picked up a girl, been tryna dig since the 12th grade It's ironic,

I had the boo, she had the chronic The Lakers beat the Super Sun

Felt on the big fat fanny Pulled out the jammy And killed the Poonani And my Jimmy runs deep So deep,

so deep Put her butt to sleep

Woke her up around 1 She didn't hesitate To call Ice Cube the top gun Drove her to the pad

and I'm coasting Took another sip of the potion Hit the

three wheel motion I was glad everything had worked out Dropped the vert off and then chirped out

Today was like one of those five dreams Didn't even see

a berry flash in those high beams No helicopter looking for

the murder Two in the morning got the fat burger Even saw the lights of the Goodyear blip

And it read ice cubes a pinch

Drunk as hell but no throwing up Halfway home

and my page is still blowing up Today I didn't even

have to use my 8k i gotta say it was a good day

The thing And

it Move!

Put your hands in my mouth!

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.
