The thing about pregnancy is people treat you differently.
2
Like you're a kid almost.
3
They lose all sense of boundaries.
4
They start acting weird, telling you things that clearly aren't true.
5
I know it sounds nuts, but I think Dwight is the only one who's telling me the truth.
6
Dwight, am I hot right now?
7
Why would I or anyone else think that you're hot right now?

I can't impregnate you, and that's the driving force between male-female attraction.
9
What about before?
10
Was I attractive before?
11
Meh.
12
You were at your most attractive when you were 24, with a slight gradual decline.
13
And a steep drop-off when you got pregnant for the first time.
14
Gradual recovery and, uh...
15
Well, now, obviously, you're at an all-time low.
16
Hmm.
17
I think Jim's lying to me about not being attracted to Kathy.
18
You think Jim's lying?
19
That's so cute.
20
I know he's lying.
21
Five bucks if you can get him to admit it.
22
Done.
23
I never touch a pregnant woman.
24
Yep, that's the Dwight I need.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
