We went to the airport together.

I was sad, but I was also happy.
79
I thought.
80
I will be with my son now.
81
At the airport, Daniel said, Mother, wait here.
82
I will bring a wheelchair.
83
The way is too long.
84
You cannot walk so far.
85
I will be back in five minutes, I said.
86
Okay.
87
I sat on a chair.
88
Ten minutes passed.
89
Daniel did not come back.
90
I thought maybe the line was long.
91
I waited.
92
Thirty minutes passed.
93
Still, he did not come.
94
I felt scared.
95
I looked at the big door again and again, but Daniel was gone.
96
Now it had been 45 minutes.
97
I was still sitting there.
98
I looked at every face, but none was my son.
99
I told myself, Daniel cannot leave me.
100
He is my son.
101
One hour passed.
102
My heart began to beat fast.
103
Just then, a police officer saw me.
104
He walked toward me and said, Ma'am, are you waiting for someone?
105
I said, Yes, my son.
106
He is bringing a wheelchair for me.
107
We are going to Canada.
108
The officer asked, do you have his photo?
109
I took out Daniel's picture from my bag.
110
I also showed my ticket.
111
The officer nodded.
112
He said, please wait here.
113
I will check inside.
114
I said, thank you.
115
I waited again.
116
After a long time, the officer came back.
117
His face was serious.
118
He sat next to me.
119
He said softly, ma'am, I am sorry.
120
Your son has boarded the flight.
121
He has gone.
122
The plane has already taken off.
123
He did not take a wheelchair.
124
He went alone.
125
I froze.
126
My heart stopped for a moment.
127
I said very slowly, no, that is not true.
128
My son Daniel loves me.
129
He said he will take me with him.
130
The officer said, I saw everything.
131
He gave his passport.
132
He entered a plane alone.
133
Tears came to my eyes.
134
My heart broke.
135
I cried and cried.
136
The officer's eyes also became wet.
137
He said, some people forget their hearts.
138

Robert called his wife, Olivia.
145
He said on the phone, I found an old woman at the airport.
146
She is all alone.
147
Her son left her.
148
Can she stay with us?
149
I could hear Olivia's voice.
150
She said, Yes.
151

She spoke to me like a daughter.
155
I cried in my room.
156
I missed Daniel.
157
I missed my house.
158
But these strangers gave me love.
159
The next morning, Robert got a phone call.
160
He went to another room.
161
He spoke in a low voice.
162
Later, he came to me.
163
I asked, is everything okay?
164
He smiled and said, yes, everything is fine.
165
But I saw pain in his eyes.
166
What I did not know was this.
167
The flight that Daniel took had crashed.
168
There were no survivors.
169
Daniel was gone.
170
But Robert did not tell me.
171
He knew that I still loved my son.
172
Even after what he did, I still prayed for him.
173
I still hoped that one day he would come back.
174
The days passed slowly.
175
I stayed with Robert and Olivia.

183
I only prayed.
184
I prayed for Daniel's soul.
185
I prayed for the children he left behind.
186
I prayed that no mother feels what I felt at the airport.
187
One day Robert asked, Do you ever think about going back to that house?
188

Советы по практике

Для эффективной практики, воспользуйтесь методом shadowing, который поможет улучшить ваше произношение и интонацию. Слушайте видео, следя за речью Линды и Даниэла, и старайтесь повторять их слова сразу же после того, как вы их услышите. Обратите внимание на скорость и тональность речи — они важны для передачи эмоций, которые содержатся в рассказе.

Подключите shadowspeak: повторяйте фразы сначала медленно, а затем с увеличенной скоростью, чтобы привыкнуть к естественному темпу языка. Вы можете делать паузы, чтобы обдумать и произнести фразы, затем попробуйте говорить без остановок. Это позволяет не только учить английский, но и накапливать уверенность в своих способностях говорить на живом языке.

Постарайтесь делать такие занятия регулярными, и вы заметите, как ваш уровень английского языка значительно улучшится. Использование таких shadowing сайтов как shadowspeaks помогает создать эффективную языковую практику, которая приводит к долгосрочным результатам. Начинайте уже сегодня и погружайтесь в изучение английского!

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.
