1
Dramatic sky unfolding here in New York City, and I gotta say, this is one of the more creative places to do an interview.
2
So, Jen, what made you want to answer 73 questions in a Williamsburg mini golf course?
3
You know, during the pandemic, I was really jealous because my husband started golfing and he had like an outdoor activity.
4
And so I'm going to try to get really good at it today so that I too can have an outdoor activity.
5
Seems logical.
6
Plus I heard a storm was coming in.
7
I was like, let's get outside.
8
And this seems dangerously exciting.
9
Very.
10
So when was the last time that you played mini golf?
11
Never or like five years ago.
12
On a scale of one to ten, how would you rank your abilities?
13
One.
14
So you're telling me there's a higher than zero percent chance of a hole in one today?
15
No. Well, I hope I'm surprised.
16
Now, Jen, with everything that's going on between balancing your career and your personal life, what makes you happiest these days?
17
Uh, my family.
18
And what have you done for the first time recently?
19
Give birth.
20
Congratulations.

Ten years from now, what will you regret doing way too much of?
22
Interviews.
23

24
Chris Farley.
25
Who's the first person who left you starstruck?
26
The Verizon Wireless guy.
27
I was doing a commercial in Canada and it was my 16th birthday and the Verizon guy brought me my birthday cake.
28
I hope he can hear you now.
29
I hope he can.
30
What's one thing that you always have in your trailer, Jen?
31
A robe.
32
What is your favorite movie over the last five years?
33
Hereditary.
34
And what is your favorite movie of all time that you never get sick of?
35
I mean, the movie I've seen the most and watched for any occasion is Father of the Bride 2.
36
Now is there one type of film that you haven't done but you would love to do one day?
37
Comedy.
38
Now let's get a view of you from this Manhattan skyline behind you.
39
Woo!
40
I think there may be some lightning, so hopefully we're insured for this.
41
Moody. So moody.
42
Now you were discovered here on a spring break trip with your mom.
43

47
What's the best part about living in this city?
48
The energy.

53
So when do people...
54
Cheese.
55
Oh, got it.
56
Now when do people become real New Yorkers?
57
Either after 10 years or if you can talk trains.
58
And what do you say to anyone who insists that Los Angeles is better than New York City?
59
They're right.
60
Los Angeles is better in so many ways.
61
You have to be a real city rat rat to want to live here.
62
What's the craziest thing you've ever seen here?
63
Um, a.. well, speaking of rats, a rat about the size of a tabby cat walking very confidently through the subway, not afraid of anyone.
64
Well, it's time to walk confidently to our next hole.
65
All right.
66
What's your favorite wine?
67
Um, God, I don't really know.
68
I mean, just like a red.
69
And what is the perfect dessert to pair with that glass of red wine?
70
Not a huge dessert person, but I guess like a sorbet.
71
And dinner parties or after parties?
72
After parties.
73
And speaking of after parties, your first Oscars after party.
74
Was that as crazy as it seems?
75
What seems crazy?
76
Your first Oscars after party.
77
Oh yeah, I threw up.
78
Okay, Jen, you work with tons of talented actors.
79
Which actor is the most fun to be on set with?
80
The most fun I've ever had with actors on set is Josh and Liam on your games.

There's so many better directors than me, but maybe.
100
Really hope you do.

109
He's amazing on set.
110
He's just the sweetest man in the world, still very intimidating.
111
I invited him to my rehearsal dinner for my wedding, obviously expecting him not to come, and when he came, I said, Bob, you really don't have to be here, you can go home.
112
And he was like, thank you so much, I'm locked.
113
Oh, that's good.
114
Alright, let's golf.
115
We got a mini golf here.
116
So what's the strangest thing a journalist has ever asked you in an interview?
117
Um...
118
Let me just get out of the way here.
119
Well, this isn't a question, but when I was in China, they told me that my nickname in China translates to...
120
Oh!
121
Interesting time to fly!
122
I think it's safe to be flying in this weather.
123
Hope they don't get struck by lightning.
124
As you were saying, Jen.
125
Um, but they told me that my nickname in China translates to big elderly cousin.
126
What's the most bizarre thing that you've ever read about yourself?
127

131
Hmm.
132
And what's one of your favorite memories of being on set?
133
Damn it.
134
You'll get the next part.
135
Chris Pratt one time told me a story on the set of Passengers that involved the word cut.
136
And so I couldn't make it through an entire scene because every time I heard cut, Yes!
137
Oh my god!
138
Wow.
139
Got Arnold Palmer over here.
140
Let's keep going!
141
So, what's one memory...
142
Go where?
143
Oh, well, we'll mosey on down to the next hole.
144
We'll figure it out.
145
Alright.
146
What's one memory from shooting that still makes you laugh?
147
Ummmmmm...
148
A memory from shooting that still makes me laugh.
149
Well, one time I accidentally took an Ambien instead of my thyroid medication in the morning before the Hunger Games.
150
Oh, God!
151
And speaking of Hunger Games, did anything intimidate you about your role in that first film?
152
Everything intimidated me.
153
I'm not exactly like...
154
a physically, like, you know, I'm not.. like, I don't have any athletic prowess, you know?
155
Ah!
156
Okay.
157
Alright, give it a swing.
158
I'll be behind this melting iceberg because it's a climate change themed mini golf course.
159
Did it go in?
160
Uh, yeah, yeah.
161
Did it go in?
162
Yeah, definitely.
163
Sick.
164
Okay, if a fan must come up to you and has to interact with you, what do you suggest they say or do?
165
Um, any kind of like conversation that doesn't involve like, can I take a picture with you is always wonderful.
166
That's an important message for your fans.
167
Now, Jen, which of your red carpet looks was your favorite?
168
Which of my what was my favorite?
169
Your red carpet looks.
170

172
What do you look for in a red carpet look?
173
Um, uh...
174
Whoa.
175
To not retain water in my face and cinching.
176
Lots of cinching.

179
And what do you try to avoid in a red carpet look?
180
Um, anything that exposes the top of my arms.

184
Oh, you don't?
185
Okay, let me toss you a spare.
186
Here you go.
187
Hey, oh, nice catch!
188
I'll stab myself in the diaphragm.
189
Well, maybe it is unsafe that you're holding a metal club in this weather.
190
Let me get that off your hands.
191
I think it's time for me to show my skills.
192
And, ooh, sorry.
193
Let's get back to the questions.
194
Do you have any advice for anyone who wants to do a pixie cut?
195
I mean, first off, that's mean.
196
Obviously, my advice is don't do it.
197
Think everything through.
198
And if I could have the internet scrubbed of those photos, or not scrubbed, just add extensions to them.
199
If anybody knows how to do that, that'd be great.
200
Okay, find a hole, Jen.
201
It's time for me to give this one a go.
202
I brought my lucky turquoise ball with me.
203

Well, I would love to.
220
Well, I ask three quick questions.
221
What's that earth made of?
222
Why is this golf course climate change themed?
223
And are there any other causes that you think are important?
224
They're using reused bottle caps.
225
This golf course raises money.
226
Well, it doesn't raise money, but it donates some of the profits to climate change efforts.
227
And another organization that I'm very passionate about is Represent Us.
228
We got a big storm coming, Jen.

I guess the pro is everybody's, you know, a lot cleaner and washing their hands and everything.
274

275
I mean, just normal work and stuff. Being tired.
276
It's been hard on everyone.
277
It's crazy.
278
Yeah.
279
But mostly me.
280
How have you seen Hollywood change since Time's Up was launched?
281
I've seen huge changes.

303
I can see how you still need to do that.
304
Do you ever get stage fright?
305
Yes, I have tremendous stage fright.
306
Ah, so that's why you come off as so shy.
307

308
So when did you first feel famous?
309
Um, when I went to Whole Foods and there were paparazzi everywhere and I was like, oh my god, who are they here for?
310
And it was me.
311
That was you.
312
It was the beginning of it all.
313

324
Wow, feels like I'm in Frankfurt right now.
325

330
Thank you!
331
Thank you so much for endangering my life.
このビデオで話す練習をする理由は？
「73 Questions With Jennifer Lawrence」というビデオは、実際のインタビュー形式で進行されるため、英会話の実践に非常に役立ちます。インタビューという設定は、リアルな会話の流れを体験できるため、聞き取りや話す力を鍛えるのに最適です。特に、英語シャドーイングを行うことで、発音やイントネーションの向上が期待でき、英語の自然なリズムを身につける助けになります。また、内容がカジュアルで親しみやすいため、楽しみながら学ぶことができます。YouTubeで英語学習を進めたい方にとって、ぴったりの素材です。
文法と表現のコンテキスト
このビデオでは、いくつかの重要な文法構造や表現が使われており、特に以下の例が注目されます：
- 過去形の使用：「Never or like five years ago」などのフレーズで、過去の経験を振り返る際に簡潔に表現する方法を学べます。
- 比較の表現：スケールを用いて能力を評価する場面で「on a scale of one to ten」が使われており、数値による比較表現の実用例となっています。
- 条件文の活用：「If you could resurrect one person from history...」のように仮定を用いた文で、想像をもとにした対話が展開されています。
一般的な発音の罠
ビデオに登場する中で、いくつかの発音において注意が必要です。特に、名前や特定の地名、スラングが含まれることがあります。例えば、「Williamsburg」や「Applebee's」といった単語は、初めて聞くと発音が難しく感じるかもしれません。これらの単語を正確に発音することで、英語の発音を良くする練習が可能です。そして「Verizon Wireless」というブランド名を耳に傾けることで、異なるアクセントやリズムに慣れることができ、実践的な発音練習ができます。
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。
