1
From VOA Learning English, this is the Science Report.
2
Scientists are developing pilotless planes or drones to gather weather information from the atmosphere.
3
The drones could help weather experts improve their predictions.
4
They already place satellites, drones,
5
and balloons at different levels in the atmosphere.
6
And they use radar and gather information from devices on towers.
7
But But that information only helps experts predict weather conditions for the next few days.
8
It does not help predict changes within hours.
9
So scientists at Oklahoma State University are developing new drones to gather information from more parts of the Earth's atmosphere.
10
This will help predict local weather conditions.
11
Jamie Jacob leads Oklahoma State University's Unmanned Systems Research Institute.
12
He and other scientists are developing small drones that do not cost a lot of money.
13
They can fly for hours,
14
gathering information from many atmospheric levels.
15
The scientists have developed a round drone that can fly,
16
roll on the ground, and then take off again.
17
This is important in stormy weather.
18
Philip Chilson is a professor at Oklahoma State University.
19
He says the drone can measure atmospheric conditions,
20
send live video to weather experts,
21
and help search for people hurt in storms.
22
Researchers say they still have a lot of work to do before the drones are ready.
23
That includes making sure the drones know how to stay away from other planes.

About This Lesson

In this lesson, you will practice your English listening and speaking skills by engaging with content about innovative weather drones developed by scientists at Oklahoma State University. The focus will be on understanding technical vocabulary related to weather technology, as well as improving your pronunciation and fluency through effective shadow speaking techniques. By the end of this lesson, you should feel more confident using terminology associated with weather forecasting and drone technology.

Key Vocabulary & Phrases

  • Drones - Pilotless planes used for gathering information.
  • Atmosphere - The layer of gases surrounding the Earth.
  • Predictions - Forecasts or estimates about future weather conditions.
  • Radar - A system that uses radio waves to detect objects and gather data.
  • Unmanned Systems - Technologies that operate without a human pilot on board.
  • Live video - Real-time video transmission used for monitoring and reporting.
  • Gather information - Collecting data for analysis and support.
  • Measure atmospheric conditions - Assessing various elements of the atmosphere, such as temperature and humidity.

Practice Tips

To maximize your learning experience with the content, consider using the shadowing technique. Listen closely to the audio of the video, and try to repeat what you hear as quickly and accurately as possible. This method, often referred to as shadowspeak, helps you pick up the natural rhythm, intonation, and pronunciation of English speakers.

Since the video features clear speech but may include some technical terms, don’t hesitate to pause and replay segments that are challenging. A useful shadowing app can assist in analyzing your speech for better alignment with the original. Focus on these key areas:

  • Listen for the inflection in the speakers' voices to understand emphasis.
  • Practice mimicking the speed; start slowly if necessary, gradually increasing pace as you become more comfortable.
  • Record yourself to compare and identify areas for improvement in your pronunciation.
  • Repeat segments multiple times to reinforce your memory of the phrases and vocabulary.

With continual practice, especially using the shadow speech method, you'll notice improvements not only in your pronunciation but also in your overall speaking fluency. Engage with the content regularly to strengthen your grasp of technical language within this field.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
