1
Let me express my deepest gratitude for the privilege of addressing this convention.
2
Tonight is a particular honor for me because,
3
let's face it, my presence on this stage is pretty unlikely.
4
My father was a foreign student,
5
born and raised in a small village in Kenya.
6
He grew up herding goats,
7
went to school in a tin-roof shack his father,
8
my grandfather, was a cook,
9
a domestic servant to the British.
10
But my grandfather had larger dreams for his son.
11
Through hard work and perseverance,
12
my father got a scholarship to study in a magical place,
13
America, that shone as a beacon of freedom and opportunity to so many who had come before.
14
While studying here, my father met my mother.
15
She was born in a town on the other side of the world, in Kansas.
16
My parents shared not only an improbable love,
17
they shared an abiding faith in the possibilities of this nation.
18
They would give me an African name,
19
Barack, or Blessed, believing that in a tolerant America,
20
your name is no barrier to success.
21
They imagined me going to the best schools in the land,
22
even though they weren't rich,
23
because in a generous America,
24
you don't have to be rich to achieve your potential.
25
They're both passed away now.
26
And yet I know that on this night,
27
they looked down on me with great pride.
28
Tonight, we gather to affirm the greatness of our nation,
29
not because of the height of our skyscrapers,
30
or the power of our military,
31
or the size of our economy.
32
Our pride is based on a very simple premise,
33
summed up in a declaration made over 200 years ago.
34
We hold these truths to be self-evident.
35
That all men are created equal.
36
That they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights.
37
And among these are life,
38
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
39
That is the true genius of America.
40
A faith in simple dreams.
41
An insistence on small miracles.
42
That we can tuck in our children at night and know that they are fed and clothed and safe from harm.
43
That we can say what we think,
44
write what we think, without hearing a sudden knock on the door.
45
that we can have an idea and start our own business without paying a bribe,
46
that we can participate in the political process without fear of retribution,
47
and that our votes will be counted at least most of the time.
48
This year, in this election,
49
we are called to reaffirm our values and our commitments,
50
to hold them against a hard reality,
51
and see how we're measuring up to the legacy of our forebearers and the promise of future generations.
52
And fellow Americans, Democrats, Republicans,
53
Independents, I say to you tonight,
54
we have more work to do.
55
For alongside our famous individualism,
56
there's another ingredient in the American saga,
57
a belief that we're all connected as one people.
58
If there's a child on the south side of Chicago who can't read,
59
that matters to me even if it's not my child.
60
If there's a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for their prescription drugs and having to choose between medicine and the rent,
61
that makes my life poorer even if it's not my grandparent.
62
If there's an Arab-American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process,
63
that threatens my civil liberties.
64
It is that fundamental belief,
65
I am my brother's keeper,
66
I am my sister's keeper that makes this country work.
67
It's what allows us to pursue our individual dreams and yet still come together as one American family.
68
E pluribus unum, out of many, one.
69
Now, even as we speak,
70
there are those who are preparing to divide us.
71
The spin masters, the negative ad peddlers,
72
who embrace the politics of anything goes.
73
Well, I say to them tonight,
74
there is not a liberal America and a conservative America.
75
There is the United States of America.
76
There is not a black America and a white America and Latino America and Asian America.
77
There's the United States of America.
78
In the end, that's what this election is about.
79
Do we participate in a politics of cynicism,
80
or do we participate in a politics of hope?
81
I'm not talking about blind optimism here.
82
The almost willful ignorance that thinks unemployment will go away if we just don't think about it,
83
or a healthcare crisis will solve itself if we just ignore it.
84
That's not what I'm talking about.
85
I'm talking about something more substantial.
86
It's the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs.
87
The hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores.
88
The hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta.
89
The hope of a mill worker's son who dares to defy the odds.
90
The hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him too.
91
Hope in the face of difficulty.
92
Hope in the face of uncertainty.
93
The audacity of hope.
94
In the end, that is God's greatest gift to us.
95
The bedrock of this nation.
96
A belief in things not seen.
97
A belief that there are better days ahead.
98
I believe that we can give our middle class relief and provide working families with a road to opportunity.
99
I believe we can provide jobs to the jobless,
100
homes to the homeless, and reclaim young people in cities across America from violence and despair.
101
I believe that we have a righteous wind at our backs,
102
and that as we stand on the crossroads of history,
103
we can make the right choices and meet the challenges that face us.
104
America, tonight, if you feel the same energy that I do,
105
if you feel the same urgency that I do,
106
if you feel the same passion that I do,
107
if you feel the same hopefulness that I do,
108
if we do what we must do,
109
then I have no doubt that all across the country,
110
from Florida to Oregon, from Washington to Maine,
111
the people will rise up in November,
112
and John Kerry will be sworn in as president,
113
and John Edwards will be sworn in as vice president,
114
and this country will reclaim its promise,
115
and out of this long political darkness,
116
a brighter day will come.
117
Thank you very much everybody.
118
God bless you.
119
Thank you.

このビデオで話す練習をする理由
このバラク・オバマのスピーチは、英語を学ぶ上での素晴らしい教材です。オバマ氏は、自身の家族の背景やアメリカの価値観について語ります。彼のスピーチスタイルは、明確で感情豊かであり、話す力を高める上での最高の模範となります。このようなコンテキストで英語シャドーイングを行うことで、リスニング力や発音を向上させることができます。ビデオを通じて、言葉の選び方や感情表現について学ぶことは非常に有益です。
文法と文脈の中の表現
オバマ氏のスピーチから、以下のような重要な文法や表現が読み取れます：
- 「Let me express my deepest gratitude」：感謝の意を示す際に使われる表現。このようなフレーズを使用することで、自分の感情を伝えるスキルが向上します。
- 「It is a particular honor for me」：自分の感情を具体的に表す方法。特に「particular」と「honor」を組み合わせることで、特別な状況を強調できます。
- 「We hold these truths to be self-evident」：このような表現は、明らかな真実を強調するために有用です。「to be self-evident」というフレーズを学ぶことで、あらゆる文脈で使えるようになります。
一般的な発音の罠
このスピーチには、発音やアクセントにおいて注意を要するポイントがいくつかあります。例えば：
- 「pursuit」：この単語の発音は特に難しく、多くの学習者が誤って発音することがあります。正しい発音を反復練習することで、自信を持って使えるようになります。
- 「America」：アメリカの発音にも様々なアクセントがあります。リズムとイントネーションを意識してシャドーイングすることで、自然な発音を身に付けましょう。
- 「privilege」：この単語の発音も難しいポイントの一つです。音节に注意し、言葉をしっかりと区切る練習をすることが大切です。
これらのポイントを意識しながら、ビデオを使ってshadow speakingを実践することで、英語のスピーキングスキルが向上します。自分の声を録音し、オバマ氏のスピーチと比較することも効果的です。きっと、リスニング力や発音が大きく改善されることでしょう。
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。
