1
Emily, do you know what time it is?
2
No, what time is it?
3
It's pizza time!
4
Mmm, yum!
5
Hey, wait!
6
Today we're going to learn how to tell the time with the pizza.
7
Oh, okay!
8
Okay, before we start we have to know a couple of things.
9
This is a clock, right?
10
Yes.
11
And these are its hands.
12
The little hand shows us the hours.
13
And the big hand shows us the minutes.
14
When the big hand is pointing to the 12th, we say it's o'clock.
15
Now it's four o'clock.
16
So, Emily, what's the time now?
17
Now it's five o'clock.
18
Very good!
19
When the big hen is pointing to the three, we say it's quarter past.
20
Why do we say it's quarter past?
21
Because a quarter of the hour has passed.
22
So, what's the time?
23
Now it's quarter past five.
24
Perfect!
25
When the big hen is pointing to the 6, we say it's half past.
26
Because half of the hour has passed, so now it's half past 5.
27
Fantastic!
28
And finally, when the big hen is on the 9, we say it's quarter to.
29
So now it's quarter to 6.
30
Perfect!
31
Perfect!
32
But what happens when the big hand isn't on the 12, the 3, the 6 or the 9?
33
Pfft, I don't know.
34
Well, we count the minutes in fives.
35
So, now it's 5 past 6.
36
It's 10 past 6.
37
It's quarter past 6.
38
It's 20 past 6.
39
It's 25 past 6.
40
It's half past 6.
41
Wait a minute.
42
After half past, it changes.
43
Then we count how many minutes there are before the next hour.
44
It's 25 to 7.
45
It's 20 to 7.
46
I see.
47
It's quarter to 7.
48
It's 10 to 7.
49
That's right!
50
What time is it?
51
I'm hungry.
52
It's pizza o'clock.
53
Yes!
54
We hope you have fun learning to tell the time with us.
55
Goodbye!
56
We say it's quarter too.
57
For other times, we count the minutes in fives.
58
That's it!
59
Now you can practice telling the time.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
