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.

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.
