How to use Shadowing [with transcript for study】

In this episode, I'll show you how to introduce your family members to others.

Português com a Ana

Falar sobre a família | Talking about your family

JIM: Who’s the tall woman next to Barbara?
CHARLES: That’s her friend Mary. Didn’t you meet her at 
Steve’s party?
JIM: No, I wasn’t at Steve’s party.
CHARLES: Oh! Then let me introduce you to her now. Mary, this is
my friend Jim.
MARY: Hi, Jim. Nice to meet you.
JIM: You, too. Would you like a drink?
MARY: Sure, let’s go get one.


LANGUAGE NOTES
• “Who’s” is the contracted form of who is. It is pronounced the same way as “whose” (/
huwz/), but the meaning is different.
• Didn’t you meet her …? Notice that this is a negative question. Charles thought that Jim 
had met Mary before. He is now surprised that Jim does not know Mary, and so he uses a 
negative question to show his surprise.
• I wasn’t at Steve’s party. Notice that the emphasis here is on “at” although prepositions 
normally have weak stress. In this case, “at” means “there” (I wasn’t there).
• Mary, this is my friend Jim. This is a friendly way to introduce two people. It’s 
common to follow this with “Jim, this is Mary.” In this case, Mary says “Hi, Jim” first.
• Nice to meet you. This is a typical response after you’ve been introduced to someone.
• “Sure” is often used in informal conversation to mean “yes.”

“Burning the Midnight Oil”
Hi there! Have you ever heard the phrase “burning the midnight oil”?
It means working late into the night, often to meet a deadline. 
For instance, “I had to burn the midnight oil to finish my project on time.”
While it shows dedication, remember to balance hard work with rest.

El episodio de esta semana es un poco diferente, en él vamos a practicar, como siempre, la comprensión auditiva, pero vamos a hacerlo de manera muy activa. Hoy te voy a leer un texto y luego te voy a hacer unas preguntas relacionadas con lo que hemos leído para ver si puedes responderlas correctamente. Así que vamos a practicar tu habilidad para escuchar y retener, recordar información en español.
