Luyện nói tiếng Anh bằng Shadowing qua video: Regional Managers RANKED By INSANITY - The Office US

I have an announcement to make.

Fraud was committed in...

Do you have an announcement?

I'm...

I was making it.

Everybody, David Wallace and I have talked, and we have decided to promote Jim to the position of co-manager.

Co-manager of what?

Of your butt.

And your butt, and your butt, and your butt.

All of the Scranton Branch butts.

What's happening to you, Michael?

What's happening to me?

I am also being promoted to co-manager.

We will be co-managers together.

Jim Halpert, welcome.

Thank you.

AHHHHH!!!!

Michael Scott, Head of Sales.

You gotta do something, man.

You can't just sit there.

Hey.

You know, it's funny.

I used to stand in here and wish I was out there.

Now I'm out there and I wish I was in here.

Well, the grass is always greener.

Yeah, except there's no grass out there.

It's just a farty dirt patch.

Well, it's what you wanted.

I really need my job back.

We made a terrible mistake here.

For the record, I fought this, all right?

And now, I'm not really sure what we do.

We make a poster that says, Happy Opposite Day, and she sees it on the way out.

That's stupid.

Oh, I wish we had one of those amnesia flashlights for Men in Black.

Just...

Hey, what was that movie where their boss was within earshot and they could have just gone and talked to her?

Lethal Weapon?

That's it.

I think we should do it with the Lethal Weapon line.

You two are grown-ass men.

What do I have to do?

Fire you and get two people in here who don't need so much management?

What?

What I say...

Michael's saying that he's better at being a manager, and I agree, because he's a better people person, weirdly.

And weirdly, I'm a good dog person.

Right guys?

See?

They love me.

Fine.

I don't care which one of you does which job.

Just stop meeting with me to talk about it.

Alright, alright.

Oh, I gotta take this.

Yep.

Finish walking my dogs for me.

And don't ride them.

A lot of people try to ride them.

Well, well, well.

Hmm.

Boss for.. what was it?

Oh, four and a half hours?

New record.

Whoa.

Previous record?

Henry Rosten.

Lost for nine years, four months, and he only left because he had family matters to attend to, and he...

What?

Michael?

Okay, that's what I'm talking about.

Big money, big money.

Yeah!

Mug duty?

Yes, you clean all the mugs in the sink.

This sucks.

Yeah, seriously, it's like everything on there's work.

I don't think you guys understand why we're doing this.

Yeah, and I don't think that you understand wheels.

I've been through several rounds of development with the team, and here's where we stand with the chore wheel.

We've got prizes.

Ten bucks, candy bar, manager for an hour, but there are also penalties.

I'm sure Robert will be with you as soon as he gets in.

That one looks empty.

No, it's Indy's office.

Oh, is it?

I have one simple philosophy in business.

If the seat is open, the job is open.

It's how I came to briefly race a Formula One car.

The three slowest laps ever recorded.

So, what is going on?

That does seem to be the question, doesn't it?

Hey, this is messed up, bro.

Who is this weird lady?

I know.

It's a lot.

So who knows what's going on?

Anyone?

100

You?

101

Yes.

102

Wait, I am very good at intuiting names. Is it...chumbo?

103

Jim, time for your review.

104

No, it's not, because you don't really work here.

105

Why are you so staunchly defending your friend who has abandoned you?

106

Wouldn't you rather come talk with me, maybe definitely get a raise?

107

See, that's the thing.

108

I don't know if you can even give raises.

109

Jim, have you ever heard of a character named Tinkerbell?

110

Yes.

111

I'm Tinkerbell.

112

Hello.

113

Mm-hmm.

114

I'm a magical fairy who floated into your office to bring a little bit of magic into your lives, to give you all raises.

115

And we are grateful.

116

But here's the thing about Tinkerbell, Jim.

117

Everyone has to believe in her, or she doesn't exist.

118

No, she dies.

119

She dies.

120

Now, who here believes in Tinkerbell?

121

Let's see it.

122

Show of hands.

123

I do.

124

Come on, everyone!

125

All right, guys, stop.

126

I already spent the money.

127

Hi.

128

Come on Tim you're killing her.

129

We believe.

130

We believe.

131

Look at this wonderful recognition of Nellie's leadership.

132

I believe.

133

After you make it sir.

134

The search committee finally decided after a lot of deliberation deliberation

135

on Robert California for the manager position who took one look around

136

and left he drove down to Florida

137

and convinced Joe to make him CEO CEO her own job he talked her out of her own job

138

and I don't really know how someone does that but anyway then the position was his to fill and he chose I...

139

It's unbelievable.

140

True, I may have been the second choice, but I was the first choice's first choice.

141

And about Dwight, I sensed that he might have some resentment about not getting the job, so I sat him down, we had a talk, and I told him, I need a really strong number two.

142

I want you to be my enforcer.

143

Smart, right?

144

Very smart.

145

This has got to stop.

146

I can't get down.

147

Hey.

148

Hey, so we saw the new billboard.

149

Yeah, pretty cool, huh?

150

What better way to announce our new slightly lower prices than with an ad campaign?

151

And what better face for an ad campaign than our new regional manager?

152

How'd it look?

153

You've seen it, right?

154

No. Andy, somebody defaced it.

155

What?

156

How?

157

Morning, Stanley.

158

There's this thing that people tend to do with billboards that people tend to do with billboards.

159

How do I put this?

160

If there's an opportunity for a graffiti artist to work in a phallic shape, interacting with the artwork, it'll happen.

161

And Andy gave them that opportunity.

162

Aaron, how long did we order those billboards for?

163

Six months.

164

Oh, good.

165

I need you to call the billboard company.

166

Great billboard.

167

Funny, edgy, right up to the line without crossing it.

168

Loved it.

169

Which one did you see?

170

Washington Street.

171

The one with like 20 dongs on it.

172

Okay, don't be gross.

173

What's going on?

174

Somebody deface the billboards we just put out in an inappropriate way.

175

Oh, that's funny.

176

Wade.

177

From the photo shoot with you and me?

178

Yeah, Dwight!

179

No...

180

No...

181

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

182

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

183

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

184

No!

185

So, coasting time is officially over.

186

Big changes are coming, and they're coming fast.

187

And if you don't like them, this is called a door.

188

You can walk right through it.

189

Alright?

190

I'm not here to be your friend.

191

I like my life outside of this place.

192

I live to leave at 5.

193

Change number one, Daryl, per your request, The company is sending you to business school at night.

194

Full ride.

195

Deal with it.

196

Seriously?

197

Stone cold seriously.

198

They are trying to figure me out, and I don't like it.

199

Once they figure me out, they start to tell me what I want to hear.

200

And I need to quickly figure out who's a good worker and who is simply a good mind reader.

201

Because as soon as I'm hearing what I want to hear, I'm not going to care.

202

Change to Toby, you're getting a new chair.

203

Thanks.

204

Don't thank me.

205

Hey, don't thank me, guy.

206

Okay?

207

And I don't care if you like it.

208

These sound like good ideas.

209

Why wouldn't we like them?

210

I don't care what your favorite flavor is.

211

Here's a bowl of ice cream.

212

You either like it or you don't.

213

That's my attitude right now in this room.

214

That's my attitude on Ice Cream Thursdays.

215

All right?

216

Clear?

217

Any questions?

218

Any questions?

219

This all sounds great to me.

220

But I could see how some people might think that they're bad.

221

I don't know what to think.

222

That is an astute observation, Kevin.

223

Kev's got me pegged.

224

Kevin, you do it.

225

Yes.

226

What are you doing?

227

Okay.

228

Here?

229

Someone want to sit in Kevin's lap?

230

Angela?

231

No. Oscar?

232

No thank you.

233

Okay, Jimmy, this is for you to show you that anything is possible.

234

Fantastic.

235

Right?

236

Yep.

237

This is also for the troops.

238

Doctor is in!

239

Now what?

240

How will your experience selling refinery equipment translate to our smaller scale here?

241

You don't work in sales, do you?

242

Human resources.

243

You see, I sit across from a man.

244

I see his face.

245

I see his eyes.

246

Now, does it matter if he wants $100 of paper or a hundred million dollars of deep sea drilling equipment.

247

Don't be a fool.

248

He wants respect.

249

He wants love.

250

He wants to be younger.

251

He wants to be attractive.

252

There is no such thing as a product.

253

Don't ever think there is.

254

There is only sex.

255

Everything is sex.

256

Do you understand that what I'm telling you is a universal truth, Toby?

257

Yes.

258

Okay, I'm almost a little concerned that you might be overqualified for the position.

259

Do you think that you are?

260

Do I look like someone who would waste my own time?

261

No. You are a man of great confidence.

262

Could you speak a little more to that?

263

And what the role of confidence...

264

would be in a dialogue with a support?

265

Will you be heard?

266

Will you have a voice?

267

Will I steamroll over you?

268

Do you feel heard right now, Jim?

269

Do you have a voice right now?

270

You can answer me.

271

Yeah.

272

That was your choice, not mine.

273

The fallacy is that it is up to the steamroller.

274

It is up to the object whether it will be flattened or not.

275

And I can tell just from the small interaction we've had already, you won't be flattened by anybody.

276

Do you agree with me, Jim?

277

Yes.

278

Yes, you do.

279

I declare...

280

Bankruptcy!

281

People say I am the best boss.

282

They go, God, we've never worked in a place like this before.

283

You're hilarious.

284

And you get the best out of us.

285

Um...

286

I think that pretty much sums it up.

287

I found it at Spencer Gifts.

288

There are 13 people working in this office, so 13 times a year,

289

Michael gets a cake and balloons and some sort of joke gift and makes a toast.

290

And there are two types of toasts.

291

One is a joke about how old you are.

292

Look at those wrinkles.

293

Blacks do crack.

294

Not crack the drug.

295

And the other is something inappropriate or horrible. Or both.

296

What else?

297

He only sings the high harmony to happy birthday.

298

And he is a very big believer in surprise parties.

299

Maybe even arguably, possibly to a fault.

300

Happy birthday!

301

Happy birthday!

302

Happy birthday!

303

Happy birthday!

304

So I think, yeah, I think getting these out of the way might be productive.

305

Well, if you take a look at this, I tented my pants.

306

I've made myself a nice pants tent shelter.

307

And this little guy may be done under Mifflin paper someday.

308

Nothing to worry about, just using the scope.

309

Safety is.. on.

310

Unfortunately a flock of birds has eaten the bait that I put out so I've had to turn elsewhere to find sustenance.

311

And under this tree I think I struck the mother lode.

312

These are nature's best mushrooms.

313

Wild.

314

And I have to say, these little buggers are damn tasty as well.

315

No!

316

No!

317

No, Michael!

318

No!

319

No!

320

No!

321

Give him up!

322

Dude, there is no way that Jim is just back here to hang out with Pam.

323

Oh, you did not just say that.

324

You don't know Pam.

325

She is really cool.

326

All I'm saying is forget about my chair.

327

He wants the manager's chair.

328

I thought you wanted that job.

329

Yeah, I did.

330

But I made too many mistakes.

331

It's out of my reach now.

332

Besides, I think Jim would be a fine manager.

333

I'd be happy to see Jim as manager.

334

So, the reason I called you in here is because Andy is moving on.

335

Again.

336

Again.

337

And I'm looking for a new manager.

338

And with his performance this year, I have been considering Dwight. Am I crazy?

339

Not at all.

340

It should be Dwight.

341

You sure?

342

You're gonna want to invest in a lot more liability insurance, but, uh...

343

Hey, if there's someone who loves paper more than Dwight, I definitely don't want to meet that person.

344

Say it again.

345

Will you be the new manager? Where? Where?

346

What branch?

347

Here.

348

Scranton.

349

Come on.

350

Come on, Dwight.

351

Just get up.

352

Let's go.

353

It's good news.

354

I'm sorry.

355

I've just waited for this moment my entire life.

356

I mean, I was interim manager once, but then I shot that gun.

357

What?

358

But this isn't interim manager.

359

No. It's Dwight K.

360

Schrute.

361

Manager.

362

Why do you already have this?

363

In case Michael or Andy ever got killed in a traffic accident and it was a trade show on the same day.

364

You will not regret this decision, David.

365

No. I will never, ever let you down.

366

I know, Dwight.

367

I know.

368

Okay.

369

Okay.

370

All right.

371

You're gonna do great.

372

You three are my search committee.

373

You're in charge of finding me my next manager.

374

All righty?

375

Yep.

376

Yep.

377

Till then, we need a new acting manager.

378

Now, who's got the most experience in this office?

379

Uh, well, we probably don't want to go just on seniority.

380

Who is it?

381

Hey, Dwight.

382

What's up?

383

Shut up.

384

Okay, well, you do know that Joe was right to take the job away from me, right?

385

There's no debating that.

386

But I will say, in your one week, every single one of the orders went out on time.

387

And I think that is shagadelic, baby.

388

It's a beautiful morning at Dunder Mifflin, As I like to call it, Great Bratton.

389

Keep it running.

390

Do I love being manager?

391

I love my kids.

392

I love real estate.

393

I love ceramics.

394

I love my job.

395

I love wrestling.

396

Find out what language this is.

397

My family care.

398

The cloth near my star's emers.

399

These are bad stuff.

400

Okay, team building.

401

On this side of the room, Stanley, Phyllis, Jim, Phyllis, Jim, Ted, Elroy.

402

And this side of the room, Pam, Meredith, Phyllis, Creed.

403

He never called a meeting.

404

Bo-body, Bo-body.

405

What does the first B stand for?

406

What are we doing?

407

We're making acronyms.

408

Okay, what does the first B stand for?

409

Um, business.

410

I like it.

411

Business, good, Kevin.

412

All right, the O.

413

We need a new manager.

414

First of all, I want to thank you for your years of patronizing our company.

415

I've got some bad news.

416

We're going out of business.

417

Saving face.

418

Yep, yep.

419

I understand that.

420

Basically everything is falling apart here.

421

How is this on me?

422

Hang up.

423

Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture.

424

Indel has told us there were at least seven.

425

Okay, I already see one.

426

Give me...

427

Okay.

428

They're the same picture.

429

Get me our biggest client on the phone right this instant.

430

Who is our biggest client?

431

Uh, just put him through to me.

432

Okay.

433

Hello, this is the client.

434

It's Creed.

435

FYI, I'm starting my own paper company.

436

Looking to poach some chumps.

437

You in?

438

Yes.

439

Cool.

440

Let's keep this on the QT, okay?

441

I want you to be a dead mama-jama.

442

Great.

443

Thank you.

Ngữ pháp trong video

Những cấu trúc người nói dùng nhiều nhất, kèm đúng cụm từ trong video:

Cấu trúc	Trong video
Thì hiện tại hoàn thành have/has + quá khứ phân từ — việc đã xảy ra nhưng còn liên quan đến hiện tại	have talked · I've been · has abandoned

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.
