I want you to hear about it.

Oh?

Yes.

There are thousands of children in hospitals across the country.

Some of them are very sick, and they are spending months indoors and in bed.

Oh, I know about children in hospitals.

From your own experience?

Yes.

My nephew was in the hospital with cancer.
45
He was five years old.
46
Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear that.
47
Oh he's better now, thank goodness.
48
But the poor child spent eight months in bed.
49
And his uncle brought toys to him, right?
50
Yes, and he loved them.
51
They were his friends, his world, his life.
52
Then you're going to love my plan.
53
I want to ask toy companies to give toys to hospitals.
54
Do you think the manufacturers will want to help?
55
Yes, I think so.
56
It's good publicity.
57
And of course, everyone loves children.
58
You know, it might work.
59
But who's going to organize the program?
60
I am.
61
I'll contact all the children's hospitals in the country, and my volunteer helper will contact all the toy manufacturers.
62
That's a lot of work.
63
I have a computer, and I hope to have a very good helper, a very important powerful, intelligent man.
64
Also very busy.
65
Oh, remember your little nephew.
66
Yes, of course.
67
I'll gladly help.

Great!

Do you like tigers, Jimmy?

119
Thank you.
120
Oh, it's my pleasure.
121
How nice, Susan.
122
Where did you get it?
123
I had a wonderful meeting with the president of the American Toymakers Association, Mr. Martinez.
124
And he gave you this stuffed animal?
125
Dad, he gave me a thousand stuffed animals.
126
A thousand?
127
Wow.
128
We're working together on a marvelous project.
129
Oh?
130
We're asking toy manufacturers to give toys to children in hospitals.
131
Like me.
132
Right.
133
But I have a problem.
134
A problem?
135
I have to contact all the children's hospitals in the country.
136
Hundreds of them.
137
I can't call them all on the telephone, and I'm afraid that letters will go to the wrong people.
138
Is that all?
139
No. We also need to find volunteers to distribute the toys.
140
We can give the toys to them, and they can give them to the children.
141
Well, I have an idea.
142
Send a letter to our professional magazine, American Hospital magazine.
143
Explain your idea.
144
Tell them you need local volunteers.
145
Maybe they'll write a short article with your name, address, and phone number.
146
Perfect.
147
Thanks for the great idea.
148
Don't mention it.
149
The great idea was yours.
150
I'm just trying to help.
151
In fact, I'd like to help by organizing the program here at Riverdale Hospital.
152
What about me?
153
I want to help too.
154
Okay, you can be my assistant.
155
Wow!
156
And you're the best dad in the world.
157
What do you say when someone says thank you?
158
Today we're going to look at different things we can say.
159
Listen to Jimmy and Susan again.
160
Wow, a toy tiger.
161
Thank you.
162
Oh, it's my pleasure.
163
Susan said, it's my pleasure.
164
More often we say, you're welcome.

このビデオで話す練習をする理由
このビデオは、「アメリカのおもちゃ製造業者協会」での会話を通じて、実際のビジネスシーンでの英語を学ぶ絶好の機会を提供しています。英語スピーキング練習を強化するために、特に重要なのは、実際の対話を模擬することで自然な会話能力を磨くことです。また、ビデオで取り上げられるテーマ、つまり病院にいる子どもたちのためのおもちゃ寄付プログラムについて考えることは、社会的な問題にも関心を寄せるきっかけになります。こうした内容を学ぶことにより、英語の会話を通じて思いやりや共感を表現する方法も身につけることができます。
文法と表現の文脈
ビデオの中で、スーザンが使ういくつかの重要な文法構造や表現を見てみましょう。
- 「I want you to hear about it.」 - この表現は、相手に自分の考えを伝えたいという意図を明確にしています。
- 「There are thousands of children in hospitals across the country.」 - この文は、特定の数の主語を使った場合の文の構造を示しており、数の表現の練習に役立ちます。
- 「I'm glad you had time to see me.」 - 感謝の意を表すこのフレーズは、英会話での丁寧な表現として重要です。
これらのフレーズを使いこなすことで、IELTSスピーキング対策にも役立つでしょう。
一般的な発音の落とし穴
ビデオには発音やアクセントに関して注意が必要な単語やフレーズがあります。
- 「Marvelous」 - この単語は発音が難しいことがあります。「マーヴラス」と言いがちですが、正しい発音にチャレンジしてみましょう。
- 「Sick」 - 文脈によっては「シック」とも聞こえますが、正しいアクセントは「スィック」です。
- 「Toys」 - 音の変化により、特に速いスピードで話されると「トイズ」が「トイズ」、または「トイ」になってしまうことがあります。音のつながりに注意して練習を続けてください。
これらのポイントを押さえ、英語の発音を良くする練習をすることで、自分のスピーキングスキルを向上させることができます。ぜひshadow speechやshadowspeaksのアプローチを取り入れてみてください。
シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
