1
Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Today we're going to look at a TOEFL Task 6 sample text called Why We May Remember Some Things Better Than Others.
4
When we think about the past, when we try to remember the past, we remember some things better than others.
5
Think about.
6
We want to link the K and the A together.
7
Think about the past.
8
Think about the past.
9
If I'm speaking more formally, I may not link about the together.
10
In other videos, you've seen casual speech where I always link about the, but in a more formal context,
11
that kind of link might not always happen.
12
When we think about the past.
13
When we think about the past, when we try to remember the past, try to, the to becomes reduced.
14
Try to remember.
15
Try to remember the past.
16
We remember some things better than others.
17
Better than than others.
18
Then here is reduced a lot.
19
Better than others. Than others.
20
We remember some things better than others.
21
Why is that?
22
Well, there are a few different explanations.
23
There are.
24
Some people write this as a contraction.
25
There-er.
26
I don't normally write like that, and that's not really standard in American English writing.
27
Even if we say there-er, we always write there-er.
28
In speech, it's more connected.
29
There-er.
30
There are a few.
31
There are a few.
32
There are a few.
33
There are a few different explanations.
34
Different explanations.
35
We have a n before a t, so that t disappears.
36
Different explanations.
37
One explanation is that, that, is that we remember something better if we already have some previous knowledge about it,
38
some previous understanding of it. Of it. Of it.
39
In a formal situation, I would probably pronounce the T at the end of it, at the end of a sentence or a clause,
40
like about it, of it.
41
If I'm speaking less formally, I'd probably just make them into glottal stops. About it. Of it.
42
For example, let's say, let's say, we want to connect those two S's together.
43
Let's say you're going to go to a classical music concert.
44
If you don't know anything, if you don't know anything, that T at the end of don't is a glottal stop.
45
Don't know anything.
46
Now we link know anything together.
47
We add more of a strong wuh sound.
48
Don't know anything.
49
If you don't know anything about classical music before you go to the concert, go to the, go to the,
50
to the, go to the concert, go to the concert, we link to
51
and the together go to the concert you probably won't remember probably is pronounced probably when it's read in even formal speech
52
probably won't remember won't remember won't remember that's a glottal stop there Won't remember many details of the concert later on.
53
Again, of the is connected, and they're both kind of reduced.
54
Details of the concert.
55
Details of the concert.
56
You probably won't remember many details of the concert later on.
57
When we think about the past, when we try to remember the past, we remember some things better than others.
58
Why is that?
59
Well, there are a few different explanations.
60
One explanation is that we remember something better if we already have some previous knowledge about it, some previous understanding of it.
61
For example, let's say you're going to go to a classical music concert.
62
If you don't know anything about classical music before you go to the concert, you probably won't remember many details of the concert later on.

このレッスンについて

このレッスンでは、「なぜ私たちは何かを他のものよりもよく記憶するのか？」というテーマに基づいたTOEFL Task 6のサンプルテキストを用います。過去について思い出そうとする際に、私たちはある事柄を他の事柄よりもよく思い出すことがあるという誤解について学びます。この内容を通じて、アメリカ英語の発音や話し方の特徴、特にカジュアルな表現とフォーマルな表現の違いを探求します。学習者は、英語の発音を良くするための具体的な技術を習得し、正確な発音やリズムに慣れることができます。

キーワードとフレーズ

  • 記憶する (remember)
  • 以前の知識 (previous knowledge)
  • 異なる説明 (different explanations)
  • コンサート (concert)
  • カジュアルな話し方 (casual speech)
  • フォーマルな文脈 (formal context)
  • 連結 (linking)
  • グロッタルストップ (glottal stop)

練習のコツ

このビデオでの話し方の速度やトーンに合わせてシャドーイングを行うことをお勧めします。特に、カジュアルな会話においては、音を連結して流れるように話すことでリスニング力とスピーキング力が向上します。たとえば、shadowspeakの技術を使って、話の各部分を繰り返し聞きながら追いかけてみましょう。文の中の重要な接続部分、特に「don't know anything」や「go to the concert」などを意識して、このフレーズを滑らかに発音できるように練習します。さらに、発音を良くするための練習として、グロッタルストップにも注目しましょう。まずは、ゆっくりとした速度で練習し、徐々にスピードを上げることで自然なペースが掴めます。

この練習を定期的に行うことで、あなたの英語の発音や流暢さが向上し、異なる文脈での表現力が豊かになります。是非、ぜひシャドーイングサイトの利用を検討しながら、日々の学習に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。
