I only have a mobile.
45
Is that OK?
46
That's fine.
47
OK, it's 614381997.
48
But if you want to contact me, usually the best way is by email.
49
OK, what's your email address then?
50
It's susansmith at post .com.
51
Thanks.
52
Now, you said you're living in Australia.

58
Most people assume that or think I'm a doctor but actually I'm a chemist Oh, sorry That's OK When will you need the accommodation from?
59
Well, I don't start work until the 25th of February
60
but I'd like to give myself some time to settle in A couple of weeks would be nice let's say, from the 10th of February.
61
Our leases start from a Monday, and the Monday closest to that is the 8th of February, would that suit?
62
That's fine.
63
Before you hear the rest of the conversation, you have some time to look at questions 4 to 10 on page 2.
64
Now listen and answer questions 4 to 10.
65
You OK, let's talk about what kind of place you'd like to rent.
66
Hmm, I like the outdoors, so my dream would be a house that has its own garden.
67
Is there anything else you'd consider?
68
An apartment, for example?
69
I don't know.
70
They usually don't have an outdoor area.
71
But I guess, as an alternative, if you could find me one with a large balcony, I'd be happy.
72
How many rooms do you want?
73
Usually one -bedroom places are too small.
74
Two would be ideal.
75
Now, what would you like to have in the place when you move in?
76
I'm bringing most of what I need with me.
77
I have beds and sofas and a television, all that sort of stuff, so none of that is necessary.
78
Sounds like you want a partially furnished house with a washing machine.
79
Actually, I'm bringing that too.
80
All I really need in the place is a fridge.
81
I don't have one, so we'll definitely need one.
82
Okay.
83
Can you find something like that for around $350 a week?
84
Well, I'll certainly try.
85
I'll start looking for places that cost around $300 and see if there's anything suitable.
86
You definitely won't need to pay more than $400 for something like that.
87
Oh, that's good.
88
I couldn't pay more than that.
89
All right, I'll see what I can find.
90
You're working at the hospital.
91
Do you want to live somewhere near there?
92
Most people think it's strange, but I don't like living close to work.
93
But I'm a mad keen surfer, so it's important for me to be close to the beach.
94
OK.
95
Do you need to be near public transport?
96
No, I usually drive to work because I work a lot of shift work.
97
So wherever I live, we'll need to have parking close to the door so I won't have to walk far at night.
98
Anything else?
99
I've heard that power bills can get quite expensive, especially in the winter.
100
It'd be great if electricity was part of the rent.
101
OK, just one last question for our records.
102
Where did you hear about us?
103
You're calling...
104
That is the end of Section 1.
105
You now have half a minute to check your answers.
106
Now turn to section 2 on page 3.

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.
