1
This house is a mess.
2
Where are you going, Trisha?
3
I'm going roller skating with Sarah.
4
I have a better idea.
5
I'd like you to tidy up a bit first.
6
Your things are all over the house.
7
I almost fell over your hair dryer on the way to the bathroom.
8
And then I almost stepped on your headphones when I got there.
9
And your tablet was on the stairs.
10
Mom, I'll do it after I come back.
11
You'd better do it now.
12
You need to be more tidy and put things away after use.
13
So from now on, try to pick things up and put them where they belong.
14
Okay, great.
15
I'll go and get them.
16
And then you can tidy the living room.
17
There are magazines all over the table.
18
I also saw a lot of crumbs on the sofa.
19
Oh, yes, I ate a sandwich there,
20
but I haven't gotten around to clean up yet.
21
It completely slipped my mind,
22
but I'll do it now.
23
Oh, and there's also a pile of trainers and shoes near the front door.
24
I think they all belong to you.
25
Don't forget to put them on the shoe rack, okay, Trisha?
26
Fine, Mom.
27
I'll take care of those, too.
28
Dad's Job Dad, tell me about your work.
29
You work in a bank, right?
30
Yes, that's right.
31
I'm a bank teller.
32
What do you have to do?
33
Take cash, checks, debit cards,
34
and other payment forms from customers.
35
exchange customers money for foreign currency, things like that.
36
Is it hard?
37
It's pretty hard work.
38
I sure am tired at the end of the day.
39
Is it a stressful job?
40
Yes, it is.
41
There is a significant amount of risk when dealing with large sums of cash.
42
I must follow procedures very carefully.
43
Lines can get long, and some customers take a lot of time to wait on,
44
with lots of questions and transactions.
45
Meanwhile, those in line are becoming impatient and irritable.
46
Is banking a boring job?
47
Well, yes, it can get boring sometimes.
48
Why don't you get an easier job?
49
I love this job because it pays well enough to provide the very best for you.
50
We don't need very much.
51
Why don't you just take it easy?
52
I have to save every penny I can for your college.
53
If I get into college,
54
Dad, I promise I'll do my best.
55
That's a big relief.
56
Study hard, and that will be my best reward.
57
Negotiation Reaching Agreement Negotiation.
58
Reaching agreement.
59
Look guys, I'm the only one in this house who does the washing up,
60
and that's not fair.
61
Okay Matt, how about if we take turns to do it?
62
Or we could just do our own washing up.
63
Since we don't often eat together,
64
that would make more sense.
65
Yes, you're right.
66
What do you say, Rob?
67
Okay, I agree.
68
On one condition.
69
What's that?
70
You spent too much time in the bathroom in the morning, Matt.
71
I missed my first lecture the other day.
72
Well, I needed to take a shower.
73
Can't you take a shower after we leave?
74
You don't have to be at college first thing in the morning like us, do you?
75
That's a very good idea.
76
I'm in a hurry too in the morning.
77
What do you say, Matt?
78
Yeah, I suppose I could do that.
79
But while we're talking about these things,
80
Thomas, if I use the bathroom later,
81
could you stop playing computer games every evening?
82
You make too much noise.
83
And I can't concentrate when I'm trying to study.
84
But my major is developing computer games,
85
and playing them is what I must do.
86
It's required for my degree.
87
Well, maybe you could wear headphones and keep the volume very low in the evening.
88
Is this acceptable for you?
89
I'll agree to that.
90
That's okay.
91
Great.
92
The matter is settled.
93
Soccer is not for girls Mom,
94
can I join the soccer club?
95
I'm not sure, Lucy.
96
What do you think, Dylan?
97
Soccer?
98
It's not really for girls, is it?
99
Come on, Dad.
100
Lots of girls play soccer these days.
101
She's right, Dylan.
102
Don't be so old-fashioned.
103
Hmm.
104
I think it's a demanding and challenging sport.
105
There's a high risk of injury in soccer.
106
Can't you rather join a dance club?
107
That's more suitable for a girl.
108
Are you kidding, Dad?
109
Dance is not my thing.
110
I've never liked it.
111
I've always been into soccer.
112
Well, you can play soccer with your friends in the backyard.
113
It's not the same thing, Dad.
114
I want to be in a team.
115
It is a good way for Lucy to meet new people and make new friends.
116
Oh, okay.
117
I guess you can give it a try if you love soccer so much.
118
You're the best, Dad.
119
What do you do?
120
What do you do, Mark?
121
I'm a magazine editor.
122
Oh, really?
123
And when do you work?
124
Monday to Friday, 9 till 5.
125
What time do you get up in the morning?
126
6 a.m.
127
I get up early to work out and have some extra time before work.
128
Yeah, it sounds like a great way to start off the day.
129
Indeed.
130
I never regret an early morning workout.
131
I feel energized and focused when I get to work.
132
And what time do you go to bed?
133
Around 10 o'clock.
134
Do you like your working hours?
135
I don't mind them.
136
It's true that I can't really have a social life during the week because I go to bed at 10,
137
but that's okay.
138
I try to make up for it on the weekends.
139
And what do you usually do on weekends?
140
I like to hang out with my friends or family.
141
What do you eat in a typical day?
142
I eat homemade granola, eggs,
143
and other healthy stuff every morning.
144
I usually have lunch in a restaurant near the office with people from work.
145
I prefer eating something healthy,
146
so I go to restaurants which serve organic food.
147
And for dinner, I eat out a lot too.
148
Do you ever cook?
149
Once in a blue moon,
150
because I'm not a very good cook.
151
Do you ever eat unhealthy food?
152
Well, I don't eat a lot of sweet things,
153
but I drink a lot of coffee every day.
154
Are you trying to cut down on anything at the moment?
155
No. I eat healthily, and I do exercise regularly.
156
So I don't think I need to cut down on food.
157
Cultural Gaps How are you adapting to the life in the US, Francesco?
158
I am really enjoying my current job here.
159
But still, it's been difficult in many respects.
160
I feel like I am out of my element.
161
Sometimes I get dizzy and feel like the room is spinning.
162
You're probably experiencing culture shock.
163
Don't worry, things will get better in time.
164
I do miss my family,
165
home-cooked meals, my little peaceful town,
166
to mention a few things.
167
Life is pretty different here.
168
What was the biggest shock for you here?
169
fact that everything is big.
170
Costco, Best Buy, Walmart, even the seats in the cinemas,
171
the products in the stores,
172
and the portions at restaurants.
173
Really?
174
I didn't even realize that.
175
What else was shocking for you?
176
The American custom of treating complete strangers as if they were friends.
177
Strangers speak to each other while waiting in line.
178
Clerks in stores ask me about my day.
179
And people I don't even know tell me they like my outfit.
180
Yeah, we are pretty friendly, aren't we?
181
People are great, but I still miss my life in Italy.
182
Want to rent an Italian movie?
183
That might cheer you up.
184
That's a good idea.
185
My heart is heavy for home,
186
so that just might work.
187
How about going to Bella Notte Ristorante tomorrow for some authentic Italian food?
188
I would love that.
189
Thanks for inviting me.
190
No problem.
191
If you ever need someone to talk to, I'm always available.
192
What kind of clothes do you like to wear?
193
What kind of clothes do you like to wear?
194
It depends on my mood.
195
At home, I wear anything I like,
196
usually jogging trousers and a t-shirt.
197
At work, sometimes I like to wear casual clothes,
198
like jeans and a comfortable blouse.
199
Other times, I like to wear a nice dress and high heels.
200
What about you?
201
I like to wear cotton clothes most of the times and natural fabrics.
202
I like plain colors best.
203
Me too, but I also like to wear floral designs in bright colors like red or blue.
204
What do you usually wear on a cold day?
205
I wear pants or jeans and a sweater.
206
I also like to wear a trendy cropped blazer.
207
I prefer leather jackets to keep me warm and jeans.
208
I love trench coats.
209
They are so elegant.
210
Do you try to keep up with the latest fashions?
211
I like to wear what fits me well,
212
not what the magazines tell us to wear.
213
I really like getting dressed up.
214
It feels good to make an effort.
215
I like to experiment with clothes and see what looks good.
216
Me too.
217
But I also like to look fashionable and stylish.
218
That's why sometimes I dress with the current fashion trends.
219
Do you enjoy buying clothes?
220
Yes, it's very relaxing for me to shop for clothes.
221
I feel the same way.
222
Do you think the brand of clothing is important?
223
Personally, I don't really care about the brand of clothing as long as what I buy has a good quality
224
and looks nice.
225
Most brands coming from fashion houses are too expensive for me,
226
so I will rarely buy them.
227
Shopping for clothes Hello, I'd like to try this shirt on.
228
No problem, I'll show you where the fitting room is.
229
Follow me.
230
I think this shirt will look better in another color.
231
Do you have it in green or blue?
232
Yes, we do.
233
We also have it in blue, green, yellow, and burgundy.
234
Which do you prefer?
235
I will try on the green shirt.
236
What size do you take?
237
Medium should fit.
238
Here's the green shirt.
239
Please try it on.
240
Thank you.
241
How is it?
242
Unfortunately, it's a bit tight around my shoulders and chest.
243
Do you have a larger size?
244
I'm afraid we only have it in blue in large size.
245
Okay, no problem.
246
I'd like to try that one too.
247
Wow, this one fits me perfectly.
248
I think it looks great on you.
249
Yes, and it looks much better than the green one.
250
The material is so soft and comfortable.
251
I'd really like to buy it.
252
Is it on sale?
253
Yes, today is a clearance sale.
254
Everything in this section is 25% off.
255
That's awesome!
256
How will you pay for that?
257
I'll pay by card.
258
it back.

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.
