1
What you send out always comes back.
2
Mom, I need a new backpack for school because this one is falling apart.
3
It's too old.
4
And most of my clothes don't fit anymore.
5
I need a larger size.
6
Unfortunately, I can't afford to buy you anything new, Emma.
7
You know money is a bit tight at the moment.
8
You'll have to wait until I find a new job.
9
I hope that won't last long.
10
But it's been two months already since you've been laid off.
11
Why does it take so long for you to find a new job?
12
Well, it's not easy to find a proper job.
13
But let's better go to the grocery store to buy some food.
14
Hey, Sybil!
15
Glad I bumped into you,
16
because I've been meaning to talk to you.
17
I need to remind you that you haven't paid the rent in two months.
18
Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
19
I've just had some financial struggles,
20
but I'm sure things will get better soon.
21
Could you please give me more time?
22
Well, if you are unable to pay the rent within two weeks,
23
I'm afraid you'll have to move out.
24
Thanks, Brian.
25
That's all I need.
26
Mom, are we going to be evicted if we don't pay?
27
We're going to be homeless?
28
Don't worry, sweetheart.
29
Let's be positive.
30
Things will work out in the end.
31
You'll see.
32
Hey, what's happening here?
33
What are you doing to my car?
34
Hi, are you Sybil Stansel?
35
Yes, I am.
36
Well, I'm booting your car.
37
You're behind three months of payments,
38
so we're repossessing the car.
39
A tow truck is coming within an hour to take it.
40
Oh, no. That's exactly what I needed right now.
41
You'll be able to recover the car by paying the back-do payments.
42
How are we supposed to go to the grocery store now, Mom?
43
We're going to take the bus.
44
Living without a car is hard,
45
but it's not the end of the world.
46
Come on, let's go to the bus station.
47
Mom, is that what I think it is?
48
Is that a wallet?
49
Yeah, so it seems.
50
Oh my gosh!
51
It's packed with credit cards and money.
52
What are the odds of finding money when you just needed it desperately?
53
This is the answer to our prayers.
54
We are saved!
55
We can pay for the car with this money and the rent for the house.
56
We're not going to be evicted anymore.
57
No way, Emma.
58
This money doesn't belong to us.
59
We can't keep it.
60
We have to return the wallet to its owner.
61
But, Mom, we could just take the money and return everything else.
62
We can say that's how we found it.
63
No, honey, that's not how I raised you.
64
We must not lie nor steal.
65
We need to be honest and do the right thing.
66
Yes, but we're in a desperate situation and that's not stealing.
67
We found this money on the ground,
68
so we should be allowed to keep it.
69
Look, here's a business card with the owner's contact information.
70
If you find a wallet full of cash and an ID,
71
you cannot keep the cash because the owner is recognizable.
72
Life is like a boomerang.
73
Whatever you throw out there will always return.
74
Or it's like an echo.
75
What you send out always comes back.
76
You must have a clean heart to be happy.
77
So let's see who this belongs to.
78
The owner is a woman,
79
Evelyn Topper, who lives about six miles away in Mill Valley.
80
There's also a driver's license here and several credit cards.
81
This woman is probably beside herself not knowing where all her stuff is.
82
Just put yourself in her shoes.
83
Try to feel what she is going through.
84
Yeah, I haven't thought about this.
85
It must be tough to lose so much money in cards.
86
Come on, let's go to Mill Valley.
87
Hello, are you Evelyn Topper?
88
Yes, I am.
89
Can I help you?
90
We found your wallet today lying on the ground,
91
and we would like to return it to you.
92
Oh, my wallet!
93
I thought I'd never see it again.
94
Thank you so much.
95
Glad we could help.
96
Please come in, make yourself at home.
97
Thank you.
98
I had stopped by a store to pick up some items.
99
After paying for them, I tucked my wallet into my vest pocket,
100
which I forgot to zip up.
101
When I got home, my pocket was empty,
102
and the wallet was nowhere to be found.
103
I called the store immediately,
104
but they told me the wallet was not there.
105
I tore apart my car and my house.
106
I knew it must have dropped somewhere on the road.
107
On top of losing my bank cards,
108
cash, and driver's license, I also lost irreplaceable personal mementos and notes from my late mother who passed away last year.
109
I'm so grateful to finally have these priceless notes and memories returned to me.
110
They mean the world to me.
111
Oh, I can imagine how desperate you must have been.
112
You have no idea.
113
I kept them in the wallet because I wanted to carry them everywhere with me.
114
How can I repay you for your kindness?
115
Forget it.
116
It was nothing.
117
There's no repayment needed.
118
I'm sure anyone would have done the same thing.
119
Anyway, please accept this reward as a token of my gratitude for what you've done.
120
Thank you.
121
Please help yourself to some of these delicious cakes and some lemonade.
122
Thank you.
123
Wow.
124
These are really good.
125
They're from my own bakery.
126
My husband and I opened a bakery a few weeks ago.
127
Oh, my mom used to work in a bakery, too.
128
She was laid off because the owner had to sell it.
129
Oh, really?
130
So you have no job now?
131
Well, I don't, unfortunately, but I'm hoping to be able to find something else soon.
132
How about you work at my bakery as a cake decorator?
133
Would you like that?
134
Do you have experience in cake decorating?
135
Yes, she does!
136
My mom can decorate cakes, cupcakes, and cookie sandwiches.
137
Yes, that's right.
138
That was always something I really enjoyed.
139
Wonderful!
140
You've got yourself a new job!
141
Thank you.
142
I appreciate it so much.
143
That's amazing, Mom.
144
We'll be able to pay the rent and the car.
145
You were so right about the boomerang.
146
What you send out always comes back.
147
Hi, George.
148
How are you?
149
Hi, Mom.
150
I'm fine.
151
I was just thinking about you.
152
Guess what?
153
Your dad and I are coming to your place tomorrow for a visit since it's your day off.
154
We're dying to see your new house.
155
Is that okay with you?
156
Oh, I am so looking forward to seeing you, Mom.
157
Of course it's okay.
158
Will you be able to pick us up at the train station at about ten?
159
Yes, sure.
160
You can count on it.
161
I'll be there.
162
Great.
163
See you then.
164
Shoot!
165
I forgot my wallet and my car keys.
166
Oh no!
167
Where's my key?
168
I locked myself out of the house!
169
How am I supposed to get to the train station to pick my parents up?
170
This is definitely not my lucky day.
171
Hi David.
172
I've got a huge favor to ask.
173
I hope you'll be able to help me.
174
Sure, what's wrong?
175
Unfortunately, I've locked myself out of the house,
176
and I'm supposed to pick my parents up at the train station.
177
They arrive in ten minutes.
178
The problem is, my car keys and my wallet are inside,
179
so I can't even take a taxi because I don't have any money.
180
Could you please go and pick them up in my place?
181
I'm afraid I can't.
182
I'm at work right now.
183
At work?
184
Wasn't this supposed to be your day off?
185
Well, I'm covering for a colleague who called in sick.
186
Can't you ask somebody else?
187
Everyone else is busy.
188
I thought you were the only one available.
189
Well, let me call my sister.
190
Maybe she'll be able to do it.
191
I'll call you back in a few minutes.
192
Great.
193
Thanks.
194
Hey, Pam, what are you doing right now?
195
I was heading to the gym.
196
Listen, can you do me a favor?
197
Sure.
198
What is it that you need?
199
George is supposed to pick his parents up at the train station,
200
but he locked himself out of the house and doesn't have his car keys nor money for the taxi.
201
Do you think you can go pick them up for him?
202
Sure.
203
No problem.
204
I'll do it.
205
Thanks a bunch.
206
Hey, George.
207
Pam will go and pick them up.
208
Wonderful.
209
You're a lifesaver.
210
I owe you one.
211
And how are you going to get into the house?
212
I'll check for any unlocked windows.
213
Shouldn't you rather just call a locksmith?
214
No. There's no time for that.
215
Who knows how long I'll have to wait for him to come.
216
Hi, Mom!
217
Hi, Dad!
218
Glad to finally see you!
219
Pam, thanks for picking my parents up.
220
No problem, George.
221
It was my pleasure.
222
George, what are you doing up there?
223
Well, I took a ladder and started climbing up the house
224
because I wanted to reach the window over the door and see if it's open.
225
While I was checking the window,
226
a gust of wind came through that was strong enough to shift the ladder Before you could say St. Nick,
227
the ladder fell all the way to the ground,
228
leaving me stranded on the roof I put up the ladder.
229
You can step down now Thanks,
230
Dad Please be careful You shouldn't have done that You could have been hurt
231
I guess you haven't found any open window How are we supposed to enter the house then?
232
Well, guess what?
233
While I was up there I remembered
234
that there was a spare key under the doormat I had completely forgotten about it Oh,
235
George Yeah, I was in such a rush that I messed up everything I woke up late and had to dash off.
236
I've had a really chaotic morning.
237
Oh, George, you're always in a rush.
238
Had you been more organized,
239
all this could have been avoided.
240
What have I always told you?
241
Haste makes waste.
242
So take time for all things because hurrying causes mistakes.
243
You need to try to be more organized and learn to manage your time better.
244
I know.
245
You're right.
246
I'll work on that.

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.
