you Thank you.
2
Bro, what a drag!
3
- Oh fuck, who the hell is calling now?
4
Hi, Prenuris Car Insurance Agency, this is Joshua.
5
How may I help you today?
6
So I've been dealing with this issue since last June and I really need your help.
7
Let me get all the facts down for you.
8
So I was in a car accident
9
and what happened was a car pulled out of his driveway
10
and to avoid hitting that oncoming car I swerved and side swiped another car and my car got messed up.
11
I called your insurance company and they said I would get a $600 payout
12
and a courtesy car while they investigated the case.
13
Since then, I haven't heard from you guys, nor have I gotten a payout.
14
It's really frustrating.
15
Everything is at stake right now, my job and my finances.
16
Well, first and foremost, thanks for letting us know about your case.
17
We duly apologize for all the inconvenience this matter may have caused you.
18
But could you kindly tell me your full name so that I can address to you properly?
19
Marixa Perus.
20
No big St .Pero's.
21
Okay, Marixa, could you kindly tell me the incident number that was assigned for your case?
22
- I will say.
23
- TKS 72 -96 -54.
24
Okay, that's good.
25
Great, please hold on I'll pull it up to take a look and see the resolution.
26
Thank you.
27
Thank you.
28
- - Mm -hmm.
29
Good one.
30
I see.
31
Amen.
32
This will be a problem.
33
Thank you.
34
Mariksen, please believe me.
35
Believe me when I say that this is one of these days
36
when I don't really enjoy being on the other side of the fence.
37
Because I totally empathize with you since the same thing happened to me a couple of months ago.
38
but this is my job and I have to tell you this upfront Unfortunately, your case doesn't meet the requirements to be fully covered by our company,
39
since it infringes an important clause on the insurance contract.
40
But let me explain why.
41
After going into a piece of evidence provided by the police department, we observed on a security footage that you went through the red line,
42
which undoubtedly led you to hit the incoming car.
43
Consequently, it has been determined that we are not paying out any funds to cover your loss, given the fact that you incurred in reckless driving.
44
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
45
uh marisa i totally understand i really want to put myself in your shoes
46
But are you sure You like to talk to my manager because all he can do won't be further than I can.
47
No. This is ridiculous.
48
Transfer me right now to your supervisor.
49
Okay.
50
Okay.
51
Let me put you through.
52
Come in.
53
Chief, for the interruption.
54
How are you doing, Joshua?
55
Yeah, come in.
56
Don't worry.
57

58

59
I'm doing well.
60
What about you?
61
I'm great.
62
Thanks for asking.
63
So, how can I help you?
64
What seems to be the matter at this moment?
65
Sir, I was trying to get a hold of you since I got a customer on hold.
66
She wants to know about a specific case.
67
I already told you about the situation, but she doesn't want to understand.
68
Okay, don't worry.
69
Have you been calling me by the way?
70
Yeah, sir.
71
I apologize.
72
I've been firmly busy over here.
73
I have a lot of cases that I've been working on and I was in a different phone call.
74
Okay, okay.
75
But just go ahead and transfer the call and don't forget to send me the case number.
76

77
Wonderful.
78
I appreciate it.
79

80
All right, welcome.
81
Hello, this is Emmanuel the manager.
82
How can I have seizure today?
83
Hi Emmanuel.
84
Okay, look, all I'm asking for is to get the full indemnity insurance.
85
And all I have been getting from you guys is you guys are disregarding me and ignoring me in my case.
86
Okay, good.
87
Allow me just a moment so I can review the case resolution.
88
What I'm going to do is to put you on hold and I'll be right back.
89
Okay.
90
All right, so I'm going to review this case.
91
See if I have the case number over here.
92
Okay, wonderful.
93
Okay.
94
Okay.
95
Without any doubt, he hit the other car.
96
There is no shadow without.
97
Okay, okay.
98
Alright, here is what I'm gonna do.
99
I'm gonna let her know that her payout approval has been denied.
100
TODAY.
101
Hello Maritza, thanks for holding.
102
I do appreciate your time while being on hold.
103
As the previous representative fully explained to you, we did find out that you got a red light
104
and the security footage displayed the moment you hit the other car on auto brake business.
105
Okay, it all boils down to legal dispute, I see.
106
I'm going to contact my lawyer, he's going to contact you, and I'm going to make sure he gets me the money that you promised me.
107
Yes, goodbye.

この動画で身につくスキル

この怒りのある顧客と保険会社の対話を通して、実践的なスピーキングスキルが身につきます。まず、感情を表現しながら明確に主張する方法。顧客は「This is ridiculous」などと怒りを表しつつ、要求を伝えています。次に、相手の反論に応じて応答するテクニック。保険会社のスタッフは「I totally empathize with you」と共感しながらも、会社の方針を説明しています。さらに、フォーマルな場面での丁寧な語彙の使い方も学べます。これらはIELTS スピーキング対策にも役立つ実用的なスキルです。

聞き取りに注意すべき音のつながり

自然な英語の発音では、単語がつながって発音されることが多いです。この動画では特にリダクションやリンキングが顕著です。例えば、「what a drag」は「wha-da-drag」のようにつながり、「I haven't heard from you guys」は「I haven' heard from ya guys」となります。また、「could you」は「cud-ya」、「tell me」は「tel-me」と発音されるので、注意して聞き取りましょう。これらの音のつながりを覚えることで、より自然な会話が理解できるようになります。

ネイティブのように話すコツ

ネイティブのようなリズムとストレスを身につけるには、shadow speak(シャドースピーキング)の練習が効果的です。この対話を何度も聴き、すぐ後に同じように繰り返してみましょう。顧客の怒りのある発言では、「No, no, no, no」のように速くて強いリズムがあり、スタッフの応答では「I totally understand」の「totally」にストレスを置いて共感を表しています。また、「Transfer me right now to your supervisor」の「right now」を強調することで、要求の切実さが伝わります。これらのリズムとストレスを真似ることで、より自然な発音が身につきます。shadow speakの練習を続けると、IELTS スピーキング対策だけでなく、日常会話もスムーズになりますよ。

さあ、今からこの動画を使ってshadow speakの練習を始めましょう。少しずつでも大丈夫です。ネイティブのような会話力が身につく日が近いですよ!

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。
