It's very dusty.

I think it's safer if you wear a mask.

You are right.

Thank you.

You're welcome.
67
We can apply online for a program to help us pay for food.
68
I'm not sure.
69
I think it's a good idea.
70
Let me think about it.
71
That is a lot of soda.
72
Yes, it is.
73
Are you sure you want all of this?
74
Yes, I'm sure.
75
Why do you ask?
76
Mmm...
77
I was just thinking.
78
You know, about all that sugar.
79
You can keep canned vegetables for a long time.
80
Yes, and they're cheaper too.
81
Yeah, that's true.
82
Did you know we have a sale on broccoli in the fresh vegetable section?
83
That is a lot of ice cream.
84
Yeah, we're having a party.
85
What about fresh fruit too? Is it true?
86
Were you telling the customers what to buy and not to buy?
87
I was just trying to help.
88
I thought it was good customer service.
89
You are not their doctor, Suomi, are you?
90
No, I'm not.
91
And it's not your business to tell customers what to buy? Is it?
92
No. This is your first week.
93
I know you are trying to help people.
94
But please, do not do that again.
95
I looked up the food program we were talking about.
96
I found a website, foodhealth.nyc.
97
You can apply online, in different languages too.
98
There are so many people who don't have enough food to eat.
99
It's not fair.
100
Sometimes, even my family...
101
When I was your age, I started thinking about these things too.
102
Now that I have a market, I donate food to a food pantry.
103
I volunteer there too.
104
Wow, I read about food pantries.
105
They're free for everyone.
106
With immigration papers or without.
107
Actually, I'm going later this afternoon.
108
You can go with me after work if you want.
109
I think it will be a good experience for you.
110
I'd like that.
111
You know, Sumi, nobody needs to go hungry in New York City.
112
Who do you think comes here?
113
It could be anyone going through a difficult time.
114
People out of work, people with low income.
115
Anybody can have an emergency situation in their lives, Shumi.
116
Where should we put this?
117
Oh, let's put over there.
118
I used to only bring canned food, but now I also bring fresh food.
119
That's awesome!
120
What?
121
Do you know one of the volunteers?
122
No, it was a mistake.
123
I thought I saw someone I know.
124
Shumi, why are you so late?
125
Oh, hi, Ma.
126
Sorry.
127
I helped my manager to deliver some food to a food pantry.
128
I volunteered there.
129
A food pantry?
130
What is that?
131
It's a place where they give food to people who need it.
132
It's for free.
133
You volunteered?
134
What do you mean you volunteered?
135
I thought you were working.
136
Yes, I am working.
137
But I also volunteered with the manager to distribute food at a food pantry.
138
Shumi, you are doing too much.
139
You are working, you are volunteering.
140
You need to focus on school.
141
Don't worry, Ma.
142
I can handle it.
143
The manager said that volunteering is good to put on my resume too.
144
It's good for my future.
145
I'm worried about your present right now.
146
How was work?
147
It was great.
148
There was only one thing my manager didn't like.
149
What happened?
150
I gave advice to customers.
151
I told them what to buy and not to buy.
152
What?
153
You can't do that.
154
That's not your business.
155
That's exactly what the manager said.
156
She's right.
157
What advice did you give?
158
I encouraged people to buy healthy food.
159
Less sugar, less fat, more fresh fruits and vegetables.
160
You tell us the same thing all the time.
161
It's okay for me to tell you but not customers at a supermarket.
162
You're going to hurt her business.
163
I won't do it again.
164
I hope not.
165
What?
166
Shumi, sweetheart.
167
I know you meant well.
168
Gabriella.
169
Hello, Ume.
170
I brought you these.
171
Oh, you didn't have to do that.
172
I still have this one you gave me last week.
173
Please, take these.
174
Thank you so much.
175
I was a nurse in my country.
176
Are you a nurse here in New York?
177
No. I'm a home health aide.
178
I don't have the license for nursing.
179
Why don't you go back to school to get your nursing license?
180
It takes a long time.
181
I'm sure you can do it.
182
You know, I am a student.
183
Really?
184
What are you studying?
185
I study English at the library.
186
They have classes, free for everyone.
187
And I want to get my high school equivalency diploma.
188
That's wonderful.
189
You can study too.
190
Maybe there's a program for people who were nurses in other countries.
191
I am so busy working and taking care of my kids.
192
Me too.
193
Let's go and talk to my teacher.
194
He may have some ideas.
195
This says ground meat, right?
196
That's right.
197
But it doesn't say what kind of ground meat they ordered.
198
Is it ground beef or.. or ground turkey or something else?
199
It's not checked.
200
Sometimes those forms are missing some information.
201
Su Mi!
202
Hello, Miss Wu.
203
Why did you change the customer's order?
204
What do you mean?
205
He ordered ground beef, but you sent ground turkey.
206
Oh, that.
207
Yeah.
208
The order said ground meat, but it didn't say what kind.
209
I chose turkey, because turkey is healthier.
210
I told you not to do this, but you didn't listen.
211
If you don't understand the order, you need to speak to me.
212
I just wanted to help.
213
I like your spirit, but I can't let you ruin my business.
214
Sumi, I'm sorry.
215
But I don't think you can work here anymore.
216
Your home early?
217
I think I lost my job.
218
Why?
219
I did it again.
220
I couldn't help it.
221
What were you thinking?
222
I don't know.
223
I was just trying to be helpful.
224
You have to go back right now and apologize to your manager.
225
You have to ask for your job back.
226
I don't want to, Ma.
227
And if we need help with food, we can go to a food pantry or apply for food programs.
228
We can't depend on that kind of thing.
229
Why not?
230
We pay taxes, don't we?
231
Someone told me immigrants shouldn't apply.
232
That's not fair and that's not true.
233
Let me help you with those.
234
Oh, thank you.
235
Are you going home?
236
Yes, I live a few blocks away.
237
How cool!
238
So we're neighbors.
239
Yes, we are.
240
Do you only work in our building?
241
No, I clean a few buildings in this area.
242
You were probably going home too.
243
Actually, my mother and I had a little argument.
244
I left the apartment to get some fresh air.
245
It happens.
246
But your mother is a great woman.
247
A very kind woman.
248
I know.
249
She works so hard too.
250
You know, your mother and I are going to go to school together to school together.
251
Really?
252
Yes, at the library.
253
I always wanted my mother to go back to school.
254
Thank you, Shumi.
255
You're welcome.
256
Shumi, I saw you at the food pantry the other day.
257
I thought I saw you, but I wasn't sure.
258
Do you work there?
259
No, I was helping my manager.
260
I volunteered.
261
That's great.
262
A food pantry is a big help to a lot of people.
263
And thanks to people who give food and volunteer.
264
Like you.
265
Me?
266
I just brought some food there with my boss.
267
I never expected to see someone I know there.
268
Is it safe for immigrants to go to a food pantry?
269
Yes, a food pantry is for anybody.
270
I thought so.
271
Anyone can go through difficult times.
272
Right now, my husband is waiting for a job.
273
A food pantry is a lifesaver in an emergency.
274
Ma, you were right.
275
I'm going to apologize to the manager tomorrow.
276
And I'm sorry I got angry.
277
I know you want to do the right thing.
278
How come you never told me you are going back to school?
279
Who told you I'm going back to school?
280
the lady who cleans our building.
281
You mean Gabriella?
282
We're just going to the library to ask what kinds of programs they have.
283
That's fantastic!
284
Miss Wu, I'm really sorry for what I did.
285
I shouldn't advise customers about what to buy.
286
Next, Gabriela is going to say a poem.
287
Thank you, Mr. Quintero.
288
I am going to say a poem by Langston Hughes.
289
He was an African-American poet in the 1900s.
290
Let America be America again.
291
Let it be the dream it used to be.
292
Let it be the pioneer on the plain.
293
Seeking the home where he himself is free.
294
To build a homeland of the free.
295
Maybe I will let you know.
296
And I am the immigrants,
297
clutching the hope I seek. That was beautiful, Gabriela.
298
All right, everybody, let's take a five-minute break.
299
That was incredible, Gabriela.
300
Thank you.
301
Well, let's go speak to Mr. Quintero.
302
Come on.
303
Good night.
304
Mr. Quintero, Ume was a nurse in Bangladesh.
305
Do you know if there is a program to help her to get a license here?
306
That's a really good question.
307
I'm working as a home health aide now.
308
It would be wonderful to work as a nurse again.
309
I think the City University of New York may have a program for you.
310
We'll find something.
311
Thank you so much.
312
You see, you can't do this.
313
Excuse me, it's my daughter.
314
Hey Ma, I spoke to my manager.
315
I don't know if she's going to give my job back, but I think so.
316
I hope so.
317
That's very good.
318
Listen, I'm at the library and I just met Gabriela's teacher.
319
Miss Wu, this is the last box.
320
Thank you, Sumi.
321
Is it OK if I go?
322
I have to help my mother.
323
She's filling out an application for school.
324
That's great, Sumi.
325
Please take some of this gufoo for home.
326
You're very kind, Miss Wu.
327
So are you, Suomi.
328
I will see you at the supermarket this weekend.
329
Thank you.
330
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.
