1
So my first question to you today is how would you define marriage?
2
Well many people might say something like it's a union of two
3
or more people who are legally recognized by the government or it's a couple that lives together and has and raises children.
4
Sound good?
5
Both of these ideas are true in many but not all cultures.
6
Actually, most anthropologists, including myself,
7
agree that there is no single definition that adequately describes all of the types of marriages found throughout the world.
8
But whatever the definition, some form of marriage is found in every society.
9
And I'd say that marriage serves an extremely important function in society.
10
So let's first look at some of the benefits of marriage to society.
11
Now a universal benefit of marriage is that it creates relationships or alliances among families.
12
Now some anthropologists believe that this is the main reason why marriage developed in human society.
13
This idea is summed up in what is known as the Alliance Theory,
14
which simply says that marriage increases social cooperation through the relations that develop between people and their in -laws.
15
And this kind of human network is in turn good for society as a whole.
16
A second benefit of marriage concerns children.
17
Compared with animals, humans take an extremely long time to mature, from infancy until adulthood when they become independent.
18
Because of this, children need parents to care for them for the first few years of their lives.
19
And marriage increases the likelihood that a child would be properly cared for
20
and that the child would receive the support and protection of both parents over a long period of time.
21
Obviously, this is quite important to the survival and development of a society.
22
Now, children also play a role in the third and final benefit we'll discuss.
23
You see, in most cultures, marriage establishes the legitimacy and rights of a child because it establishes who the child's father is.
24
Now, this is known as the legitimacy argument, which says that in order for a child to be recognized and respected by the community,
25
the child must be linked to a father who is legitimately married to the child's mother.
26
This is particularly true in most modern societies, where there is a strong pressure for couples to get married if the woman becomes pregnant.
27
However, I might add that this kind of pressure is lessening in some Western countries.
28
Alright, so I hope that we agree that marriage benefits society in many ways.
29
Next I'd like to consider who marries whom and why.
30
Any guesses?
31
Well, statistics clearly show that most people marry someone similar to themselves in terms of race, level of education, social class, and interests.
32
This social phenomenon is called homogony.
33
For instance, more than 90 % of Americans marry someone from their own racial group
34
and about 75 % marry someone from their same social class.
35
Now why is the phenomenon of homogony so prevalent?
36
Well there's a very logical reason.
37
People tend to marry people they've met in their daily lives
38
and And most people tend to live near and socialize with people from their own racial group, their own social class, and with similar levels of education.
39
I suspect that the many married couples you know confirms that homogamy is the norm.
40
However, recent research suggests that this trend in marriage is changing and that marriages will look different in the future.
41
To talk about the future of marriage, I'd like to focus on some figures from the U .S., although these ideas certainly apply to countries throughout the world.
42
The strongest major trend that we'll see in marriages of the future is a gradual decline in racial homogamy.
43
In 1980, 1 .3 % of marriages in the U .S were interracial.
44
By 2002, the number had risen to 3%, And by 2005, the number of interracial marriages had risen to 7 .5%.
45
So, as you can see, this trend is accelerating rapidly, and we have many reasons to believe
46
that the number of interracial marriages in the U .S will continue to increase for some time to come.
47
One reason is a rise in racial tolerance.
48
A recent poll showed that 86 % of blacks,
49
79 % of Hispanics, and 66 % of whites would accept their children or their grandchildren marrying someone of a different race.
50
Another reason anthropologists believe interracial marriages will become more common is related to anticipated increases in the Hispanic
51
and Asian populations in the U .S.
52
These two groups account for many of the interracial marriages that we now see.
53
So as these populations grow, we can assume so will interracial marriages.
54
Now I hope you'll agree that this trend is a very welcome one.
55
Remember that one universal characteristic of marriage is that it creates alliances.
56
And what better way to bring down racial and nationalistic barriers than through interracial and international marriages?

ماذا ستتعلم

في هذا الفيديو، ستحسن مهاراتك في المحادثة من خلال التركيز على ثلاثة أمور رئيسية. أولاً، ستتعلم كيفية التعبير عن أفكارك حول موضوع الزواج، مما سيساعدك على تبادل الآراء بشكل دقيق ومفيد. ثانياً، ستكتسب القدرة على مناقشة فوائد الزواج وتأثيره على المجتمع، مما يتيح لك استخدام لغة أكثر تعقيدًا وثقافة. أخيرًا، سيساعدك الفيديو في فهم الأنماط السلوكية المتعلقة بالزواج وكيف يؤثر ذلك على الأفراد والمجتمعات.

استمع إلى هذه الأصوات

عند الاستماع إلى الحوار، ستلاحظ بعض تقنيات النطق المهمة. التركيز على اللغة المرتبطة يمكن أن يساعدك في فهم المحادثات بشكل أفضل. انظر إلى كيفية ربط الكلمات، مثل "to" و"the"، حيث تُنطق بشكل أسرع عند استخدامها معًا. أيضًا، ستسمع بعض الاختصارات التي تتكرر، مثل "gonna" بدلاً من "going to". محاولة تقليد هذه الأنماط في ممارسة المحادثة الإنجليزية الخاصة بك ستجعلك تبدو أكثر طبيعية.

قلها مثل الناطقين الأصليين

لتحسين نطقك، حاول محاكاة إيقاع المتحدثين الأصليين. في هذا الفيديو، يمكنك ملاحظة كيفية استخدامهم للتوتر في الكلمات. على سبيل المثال، في جملة تتحدث عن فوائد الزواج، لاحظ كيف يضعون الضغط على الكلمات الأساسية. استخدم تقنية shadow speaking، حيث تقوم بتكرار ما تسمعه في الوقت نفسه، مما سيساعدك على تحسين إيقاعك ونطقك. تذكر أن shadow speech ليست مجرد تقليد، بل هي أداة فعالة لتطوير مهاراتك في التحدث.

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
