Welcome to my channel, let's practice your listening skills.

This is a B2 level,

and today's topic is calling in sick at work.

Now listen carefully.

Good morning, Mr. Carter.

I'm really sorry to call this early,

but I'm not feeling well today.

Not feeling well?

You sound fine to me.

What exactly is going on?

I understand it might not sound serious,

but I've had a fever since last night and it hasn't improved at all this morning.

Hmm, and you're only telling me now.

Why didn't you inform me earlier?

I wasn't expecting it to get worse,

so I thought I would still be able to come in today.

You know the policy.

You're supposed to notify at least a day in advance.

I understand the policy, but with all due respect,

it's difficult to predict being sick in advance.

That may be true, but we still need to manage the workload properly.

Of course, and I'm really sorry for the inconvenience this causes.

I just don't think I'm in a condition to work today.

We have a meeting this morning that you were supposed to handle.

What about that?

I was planning to handle that,

but I can send you my notes in the presentation outline so someone else can step in.

That would help, but it still puts the team in a difficult position at the last minute.

I understand, and I really don't like doing this on short notice,

but I don't think pushing through today would be a good idea.

Are you saying you're completely unable to work,

or just that you'd prefer to rest?

I could probably respond to urgent messages,

but I don't think I can handle meetings or anything that requires full focus.

Hmm, that's not ideal, but I suppose it's better than nothing.

If it helps, I can stay available for a few hours this morning in case something urgent comes up.

That might work, but you really should have informed me sooner.

I understand your point, but honestly,

I didn't realize how bad it would get until this morning.

Still, we can't run a team like this if people call in at the last minute.

I agree in general, but I think health situations are a bit different from other types of absences.

I'm not denying that, but there has to be some level of responsibility as well.

Of course, and I take responsibility for my work,

which is why I'm offering to support remotely where I can.

Alright, I can see you're trying to handle this properly.

I really am.

I wouldn't call in unless I felt it was necessary.

Fine.

Let's focus on what needs to be done now.

I'll send you the meeting materials within the next 15 minutes.

Good.

I'll ask Jason to take over the meeting.

That makes sense.

He's familiar with the project anyway.

Yes, but he wasn't expecting to lead it today.

I'll include detailed notes so he doesn't have to guess anything.

All right.

That should make things easier.

And if he has questions,

I'll keep my phone nearby.

Good.

Stay reachable at least for the first half of the day.

I can do that, as long as I don't get worse.

If you do feel worse, just let me know.

I will.

And again, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience.

It's not a deal, but we'll manage.

Thank you for understanding.

I wouldn't say I'm fully happy about it,

but I understand the situation.

That's fair.

I appreciate your flexibility.

Just make sure this doesn't become a pattern.

It won't.

I rarely take days off like this.

Alright, I'll take your word for it.

I'll make sure everything's ready before the meeting starts.

Good.

Send it as soon as possible.

I'm working on it right now.

Fine.

Keep me updated.

Will do.

And Laura?

Yes?

Next time, even if you're not sure,

just give me a heads up the night before.

I understand.

I'll keep that in mind.

It makes a big difference for planning.

That's fair.

I didn't think of it that way before.

Now you know.

Yes, and I'll handle it better next time.

Good.

That's all I need to hear.

I'll send the files shortly.

All right.

Take care of yourself.

100

I will.

101

Thank you.

102

And get some rest after that.

103

I plan to.

104

I really need it.

105

I can tell you don't sound great.

106

Yeah, I'm trying to stay composed, but it's not easy.

107

Then don't push yourself too much.

108

I won't.

109

I'll focus on the essentials only.

110

Good.

111

That's the right approach.

112

Thanks again for working this out with me.

113

All right.

114

We'll talk later.

115

Take care.

116

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.
