You were right.

111
I don't think you would tower over me.
112
No, 5'1".
113
As we get older, things get harder, right?
114
I'm just having to come to face with the fact that I think I'm a little sensitive.
115
I think you're too hard on yourself.
116
I think you just feel things and that's good.
117
Yeah.
118
You're like, I'm sensitive.
119
You're just, you're a person with feelings. For sure. For sure.
120
I gotta ask you, what's like the toughest challenge that I'm like? getting dressed, getting fed.
121
No, so I'm actually not confined to the chair.
122
I can do a little bit of walking, but I walked a lot as a kid, and I only started using the wheelchair when I was in high school.
123
But I grew up with my parents being fearful of my future, you know?
124
Like, I don't know how she's gonna make it in the world.
125
And they would say things to me like, well, we wanna get a house that we can have like an apartment that you can live in, like a basement apartment.
126
I'm like, I don't need to live with you.
127
I can do this on my own.

Carolyn, it was really nice meeting you.
131

  • Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: jeans /d͡ʒiːnz/, visualize /ˈvɪʒuəˌlaɪz/, likewise /ˈlaɪkˌwaɪz/, hug /hʌɡ/

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.
