1
Grace has the keys to her new apartment, but the boxes are everywhere, the landlord talks fast, and she does not know one single neighbor.
2
A new home means a lot of new English, too.
3
Today, follow Grace through her first two weeks.
4
Moving day, new neighbors, small problems, and her very first dinner in her new home.
5
Let's get started!
6
Meeting the Landlord Hello.
7
I am Grace.
8
I'm here for apartment 4B.
9
Hello, Grace.
10
Yes, I remember your name.
11
I'm Daniel, the Landlord.
12
Nice to meet you, Daniel.
13
I'm very excited about this apartment.
14
Good.
15
Come in, please.
16
First, we sign some papers together.
17
Okay.
18
Is the rent still $400 a month?
19
Yes, exactly.
20
And the deposit is also $400, one time only.
21
I understand.
22
When do I pay the rent every month?
23
On the first day of the month.
24
You can pay online or with a check.
25
Online is easier for me.
26
Thank you.
27
Perfect.
28
Now please sign here and here.
29
Okay.
30
Done.
31
Is that everything?
32
Beep.
33
Almost.
34
Just a few rules.
35
No loud music after 10 at night.
36
Okay.
37
That is easy for me.
38
I am usually quiet.
39
Good.
40
And trash day is every Tuesday morning.
41
Tuesday morning.
42
Got it.
43
I will remember that.
44
Any questions before we finish?
45
Yes.
46
One more thing.
47
Is there parking for tenants?
48
Yes.
49
One spot per apartment in the back lot.
50
Yours is spot 14.
51
Perfect.
52
That makes things much easier.
53
Here are your keys.
54
One for the building, one for your door.
55
Thank you so much.
56
This feels very real now.
57
Huh.
58
It is real.
59
Welcome home, Grace.
60
Can I ask one more question?
61
Where is the mailbox?
62
Downstairs, near the front door.
63
Your box number is 14.
64
Perfect.
65
Thank you.
66
I have so much to learn about this building.
67
Don't worry.
68
I'm here if you need anything.
69
That is very kind.
70
Thank you again, Daniel.
71
You're welcome.
72
Enjoy your new home.
73
Moving day.
74
Hi.
75
Thank you for coming today.
76
The boxes are all in the truck.
77
No problem.
78
Wow, you have a lot of boxes for one person.
79
I know.
80
I don't know how I have so many things.
81
Don't worry.
82
This is normal.
83
Everyone says that on moving day.
84
Can we start with the big boxes first?
85
Sure.
86
Where do you want the sofa?
87
In the living room?
88
Yes, please.
89
Near the window, if that is possible.
90
Hmm.
91
This sofa is big.
92
I'm not sure it goes through the door.
93
Oh, no. Really?
94
What do we do then?
95
Let's try one more time.
96
Turn it this way.
97
Okay, it fits.
98
Thank goodness.
99
I was very worried for a second.
100
Me too, honestly.
101
That door is small.
102
Where should we put the boxes with kitchen on them?
103
In the kitchen, of course.
104
Right here is good.
105
Perfect.
106
This is my first apartment alone, so everything feels new.
107
That's exciting.
108
I remember my first move too.
109
It was scary and fun.
110
Yes, exactly how I feel right now.
111
Okay, last box.
112
Where does this one go?
113
That one says books.
114
Put it near the small table, please.
115
Done.
116
That's everything unloaded from the truck now.
117
Would you like some water before you go?
118
It's hot outside today.
119
That would be great.
120
Thank you.
121
Moving boxes is tiring work.
122
Here you go.
123
Thanks.
124
That helps a lot.
125
Wow.
126
Thank you so much for your help today.
127
You're welcome.
128
Good luck with the unpacking.
129
I will need it.
130
Thank you again, Jake.
131
Anytime, Grace.
132
Enjoy your new place.
133
meeting a neighbor.
134
Hi there.
135
I am Grace.
136
I just moved into 4B.
137
Oh, hello.
138
Welcome.
139
I am Emma from 4C, right next door.
140
Nice to meet you, Emma.
141
I hope I am not bothering you.
142
Not at all.
143
I saw the moving truck this morning.
144
Yes, it was a busy day.
145
My apartment is still full of boxes. That is normal.
146
It takes time to unpack everything.
147
Can I ask you something?
148
Is this building usually quiet?
149
Yes, mostly.
150
Sometimes the man downstairs plays music, but not too late.
151
Good to know.
152
Thank you.
153
Do you know where the laundry room is?
154
Yes, it is in the basement.
155
I can show you later if you want.
156
That would be great.
157
I have no idea where anything is yet.
158
Don't worry.
159
I felt the same way one year ago.
160
Really?
161
You seem so comfortable here now.
162
Time helps a lot.
163
You will learn everything quickly.
164
Is the elevator always this slow, or is it broken today?
165
No, it's always like that.
166
You get used to it.
167
Good to know.
168
I almost took the stairs instead.
169
Smart choice, actually.
170
Do you have any tips for a new person here?
171
Yes, the small market on the corner has good prices.
172
Oh, that is very helpful.
173
I need groceries soon.
174
If you need sugar or anything small, just knock on my door.
175
That is so kind.
176
Thank you.
177
I will remember that. Of course.
178
Welcome to the building, Grace.
179
Thank you, Emma.
180
I am happy you are my neighbor.
181
Me too.
182
Let's get coffee together sometime.
183
I would really like that.
184
Setting up the Internet Hi.
185
Come in.
186
Thank you for coming to install the Internet.
187
No problem.
188
Where do you want the router?
189
Maybe near the TV.
190
Is that a good spot?
191
Yes, that works well.
192
Let me check the connection first.
193
Okay.
194
How long does this usually take?
195
About 30 minutes, if everything goes well.
196
Great.
197
Can I ask, what is my Wi -Fi speed exactly?
198
You have the fast plan, so it is very good for movies and video calls.
199
Perfect.
200
I work from home sometimes, so I need it to be fast.
201
Then you chose the right plan.
202
By the way, how much does this plan cost every month?
203
It is $35 a month, and the first month is free.
204
Oh, really?
205
That is a nice surprise.
206
Okay, the router is ready now.
207
Already?
208
That was fast.
209
I do this every day.
210
Now let's set your Wi -Fi name and password.
211
Can the name be anything I want?
212
Yes, anything.
213
What do you want to call it?
214
How about Grace's Home?
215
Simple and easy to remember.
216
I like that.
217
And now let's choose a password.
218
Okay, I typed one.
219
Is that enough letters and numbers?
220
Yes, that is strong enough.
221
Let's test it on your phone.
222
Oh, it connects immediately.
223
That is amazing.
224
Perfect.
225
Everything works.
226
Do you have any other questions?
227
No, I think that is everything.
228
Thank you so much.
229
You're welcome.
230
Call the company if you have any problems later.
231
I will.
232
Thank you again for your help today.
233
No problem.
234
Enjoy your new apartment.
235
Setting up the electricity.
236
Hello.
237
I want to set up electricity for my new apartment, please.
238
Sure.
239
I can help with that.
240
Can I have your name, please?
241
Yes.
242
My name is Grace Miller.
243
Thank you, Grace.
244
And what is the address of the new apartment?
245
It is 14 Maple Street, apartment 4B.
246
Got it.
247
When do you want the electricity to start?
248
As soon as possible, please.
249
I already live here now.
250
Okay, I can start it tomorrow morning.
251
Is that good for you?
252
Yes, that is perfect.
253
Thank you.
254
Great.
255
Now, do you want paper bills or bills by email?
256
Email, please.
257
It is easier for me to find later.
258
Also, do you need us to close your old addresses account too?
259
Yes, please.
260
That was in a different city, so I forgot about it.
261
No problem.
262
I can close that today as well.
263
Thank you.
264
That saves me a phone call.
265
No problem.
266
And how much electricity did you use in your last home?
267
I am not sure exactly, but I lived alone, so not too much.
268
Okay, then I estimate about $40 a month for now.
269
That sounds reasonable.
270
Is there a deposit too?
271
Yes, a small deposit of $50, one time only.
272
Okay, I understand.
273
How do I pay that?
274
I can take your card information right now if you want.
275
Sure.
276
One moment.
277
Okay, here is my card number.
278
Perfect.
279
Thank you.
280
Everything is set up now.
281
Thank you so much.
282
This was easier than I thought.
283
You're welcome, Grace.
284
Welcome to your new home.
285
Thank you.
286
Have a good day.
287
You too.
288
Goodbye.
289
The Broken Fridge Hi, Tom.
290
Thank you for coming so fast.
291
My fridge is not cold.
292
No problem.
293
Let me take a look.
294
When did you notice this?
295
This morning.
296
My milk was warm and I got worried.
297
Okay, let's see.
298
Hmm, the light inside is not working either.
299
Is that a big problem or a small one?
300
I think it is small.
301
Maybe just an old part inside.
302
That is good to hear.
303
I was afraid I needed a new fridge.
304
Not yet.
305
Let me try something first.
306
Okay, take your time.
307
I will wait in the kitchen.
308
This building is old, so small problems happen sometimes.
309
How old is this building exactly?
310
About 40 years now, but it is still strong.
311
Older than me.
312
No wonder small things break sometimes.
313
Exactly.
314
But nothing I can't fix.
315
I understand.
316
Everything else in the apartment seems fine, though.
317
Good to know.
318
Okay, I think I found the problem.
319
Really?
320
Already?
321
Yes.
322
One small part was loose.
323
Now listen.
324
Do you hear that sound?
325
Yes, it is working again.
326
Perfect.
327
Give it one hour and it will be cold again.
328
Thank you so much, Tom.
329
I really appreciate your help.
330
You are welcome.
331
I like fixing small things like this.
332
Well, you are very good at your job.
333
No problem.
334
That's my job.
335
Call me if you have any other problems.
336
I will.
337
Is there a number I can call directly?
338
Yes.
339
It's on the paper near your front door.
340
Perfect.
341
Thank you again for coming so quickly.
342
You are welcome.
343
Enjoy your cold milk tonight.
344

I need coffee, milk, bread, and maybe some vegetables.
350
Okay, the coffee and milk are in aisle two, over there.
351
Thank you.
352
And the bread?
353
Bread is at the back of the store, near the bakery section.
354
Got it.
355
I am new to this neighborhood, so I don't know the store yet.
356
Oh, welcome.
357
Did you just move here?
358
Yes, just this week, actually.
359
My apartment is very close.

Actually, yes.
369
What time does the store close?
370
We close at 10 every night, even on Sundays.
371
Perfect.
372
That is very convenient for me.
373
Do you need help finding the vegetables too?
374
Yes, please, if you have a minute. Of course.
375
Follow me.
376
They are right this way.
377

378

379
Everyone says that the first time.
380
You'll learn it quickly.
381
I hope so.
382
Thank you again for all your help.
383
No problem.
384
Welcome to the neighborhood.
385
The neighbor downstairs.
386
Knock, knock.
387
Excuse me.
388
Hi.
389
I am Henry from downstairs, apartment 3B.
390
Oh, hello, Henry.
391
Is everything okay?
392
Well, last night there was a lot of noise, quite late.
393
Oh, no. I am so sorry.
394
I was moving furniture last night.
395
Ah, that explains it.
396
I thought maybe a party or something like that.
397
No party, just me and some heavy boxes.
398
I did not think about the time.
399
It's okay.
400
I understand.
401
Moving is a lot of work.
402
I promise it will not happen again.
403
I am truly sorry.
404
Don't worry about it too much.
405
It was just one night.
406
Thank you for understanding.
407
I really did not want to bother anyone.
408
Smiling.
409
No hard feelings.
410
Welcome to the building, by the way.
411
Thank you.
412
Have you lived here long?
413
About three years now.
414
It is a good building, quiet usually.
415
That's good to hear.
416
I hope to be a good neighbor.
417
I'm sure you will be.
418
Just maybe finish moving furniture before 10.
419
Yes, definitely.
420
Lesson learned.
421
If you ever need anything, my door is right below yours.
422
Thank you.
423
That is very kind after last night.
424
It's really no problem.
425
We all make noise sometimes.
426
Would you like to come up for coffee sometime to say sorry properly?
427
I would like that, actually.
428
I'm usually free on weekends.
429
Perfect.
430
Let's plan something soon.
431
Smiling.
432
I would really like that.
433
Well, thank you for coming to talk instead of just being angry.
434
Talking is always better.
435
Okay, I should go now.
436
Have a good day.
437
You too, Henry, and sorry again.
438
It's already forgotten.
439
Bye, Grace.
440
The package makes up.
441
Excuse me, are you the mail carrier for this building?
442
Yes, that's me.
443
Can I help you with something?
444
I think I got a package for apartment 4C, not 4B.
445
Oh, really?
446
Let me check the name on it.
447
It says Emma, and I am in 4B, so this is not mine.
448
You are right.
449
I am sorry about that.
450
New building numbers confuse me sometimes.
451
No problem at all.
452
Emma is actually my neighbor, so it's easy to fix.
453
oh that's lucky can you give it to her directly sure i don't mind her door is right next to mine
454
thank you so much
455
that saves me another trip upstairs happy to help do these mistakes happen a lot sometimes especially with new buildings
456
and new tenants like you does this happen with regular mail too
457
or just packages sometimes with mail too especially for new apartment numbers like yours Good to know.
458
Thank you.
459
I am actually waiting for my own package, too.
460
What is it?
461
Maybe I have it in my bag.
462
A small box.
463
Some kitchen things I ordered online.
464
Let me look.
465
Yes, here it is.
466
Grace Miller, 4B.
467
That's me.
468
Thank you so much.
469
You're welcome.
470
Sorry again for the small mix -up earlier.
471
It's really okay.
472
Thank you for fixing it so quickly. Of course.
473
You have a lot of packages for someone who just moved in.
474
I know.
475
I ordered a lot of things for the new apartment.
476
No problem.
477
Have a great rest of your day, Grace.
478
You too.
479
Thank you again.
480
The first dinner at home.
481
Come in, come in.
482
Welcome to my new apartment, finally.
483
Wow, Grace.
484
This place looks amazing.
485
It's so different from two weeks ago.
486
I know.
487
Remember all those boxes everywhere?
488
I remember.
489
I was worried you would never finish unpacking.
490
Me too, honestly.
491
But look, everything has a place now.
492
The sofa looks perfect by the window.
493
Was it hard to move in?
494
A little.
495
It almost did not fit through the door.
496
Hahaha, that sounds exactly like something that happens to you.
497
Very funny.
498
Come, sit down.
499
I made dinner for us tonight.
500
What did you make?
501
It smells incredible in here.
502
Just pasta, nothing fancy, but it's my favorite comfort food.
503
This smells wonderful.
504
You really feel at home here already.
505
I do, actually.
506
My neighbor Emma is so kind, and even Henry downstairs is friendly now.
507
Henry?
508
Didn't you have a small problem with him?
509
Yes, about noise.
510
But we talked, and now we say hello every day.
511
That's really nice.
512
New places feel scary at first, but you did great.
513
Thank you.
514
Two weeks ago, I did not know anyone in this building.
515
And now you know the landlord, your neighbors, even the mail carrier.
516
True.
517
This city feels like home now.
518
To your new home, then.
519
Cheers!
520
Cheers!
521
Thank you for coming tonight, Lucas.
522
Thank you for having me.
523
I'm really happy for you, Grace.
524
So, what is next for this place?
525
Any plants?
526
Maybe some plants and a small table for the balcony.
527
That sounds lovely.
528
I can't wait to see it finished.
529
Me too.
530
This already feels like the start of something good.

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.
