6 Minute English from bbclearningenglish.com Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English.
2
I'm Neil.
3
And I'm Rob.
4
Now Rob, you look like you enjoy a good meal.
5
Ha!
6
Well, I do like eating out and I like to think I know a good meal when I have one.
7
Well, that should give you an advantage with today's quiz.
8
In 2016, which is the last year we have statistics for,
9
how many restaurants and mobile food services were there in the UK?
10
Was it a about 75,000,
11
b about 83,000 or c about 93,000?
12
Well, I know there are a lot,
13
so I'm going to say 93,000,
14
but that is just a guess.
15
I'll reveal the answer a little later in the programme.
16
Today we're talking about being a foodie.
17
Rob, what is a foodie?
18
Well, I would describe a foodie as someone who has a strong interest in food.
19
They like preparing it as well as eating it.
20
They like using good ingredients and they're probably not fans of fast food.
21
Angela Hartnett is one of Britain's top chefs.
22
In the BBC podcast, The Bottom Line,
23
she talked about this topic.
24
In this first clip, how does she describe people who say they are foodies?
25
I think people who say they're foodies buy the books,
26
watch TV and will cook a little bit.
27
She's saying that people who say they are foodies may not actually know that much about food.
28
They buy books and watch cookery programmes on TV and will cook a little bit.
29
A little bit is a common phrase that means a small amount and if you do something a little bit,
30
it means you don't do it a lot.
31
You could just say a little,
32
but adding bit to the phrase makes it very natural.
33
Well, we heard a little bit of Angela Hartnett there.
34
Let's hear more now.
35
What's her description of a foodie?
36
My idea of a foodie is the very European idea that people go and shop every day.
37
They understand one end of a pig from another.
38
And maybe that's a bit romantic,
39
but I look at my mother and I look at my grandmother and our background,
40
you know, they made food.
41
They knew about what was expensive,
42
they knew about quality and stuff like that.
43
Rob, do you know one end of a pig from another?
44
Well, I hope so.
45
But the point Angela Hartnett is making is that a true foodie has a good understanding,
46
for example, of the different parts of an animal that are used in cooking and what they're used for.
47
She says that idea might be a bit romantic.
48
We normally think of the word romantic when we're talking about love and relationships,
49
but that's not what it means here, is it?
50
No. Romantic can also describe a pleasant ideal,
51
an imaginary perfect way of life that forgets about the difficult things of everyday existence.
52
Let's hear some more from chef Angela Hartnett now.
53
What is she worried about?
54
I think we think we're foodies,
55
but I think food is expensive in this country.
56
I don't think it's affordable for lots of people.
57
And I think we are in danger of not knowing,
58
you know, how to cook any more,
59
how to make a meal for a family of four for £5.
60
So Rob, what is Angela Hartnett worried about?
61
She commented that food was very expensive here in Britain.
62
Many people don't have enough money to buy it.
63
As she said, it's not affordable.
64
She thinks we might be in danger of not being able to feed our families cheaply.
65
Can you say a bit more about the phrase, in danger of?
66
Sure.
67
The phrase to be in danger of is followed by a gerund
68
and it means that there is the possibility of something bad happening.
69
It's not happened yet, but it could happen.
70
Thanks, Rob.
71
Right, well, we're in danger of running out of time,
72
so let's get to the answer to the question I asked at the start of the programme.
73
I asked how many restaurants or mobile food services there were in the UK in 2016.
74
And I said, it was a guess, 93,000.
75
But was I right?
76
I'm afraid you're 10,000 out.
77
The answer is approximately 83,000.
78
Right.
79
Well, I've still got a few more to get to before I can tick them all off my list.
80
Me too.
81
Well, before we go, let's recap the words and phrases we talked about today.
82
The first was foodie.
83
Yes, foodie is a modern word to describe someone who is very interested in all aspects of food,
84
from buying, preparing and cooking to eating and someone who may or may not know which end of a pig is which.
85
Well, I think you're being a little bit silly there, aren't you?
86
Well, a little bit was our next phrase, wasn't it?
87
Yes, a little bit.
88
A very simple but a very natural conversational phrase that means a small amount.
89
The next word was the adjective romantic.
90
Not used in the context of love here though, was it?
91
No, it wasn't.
92
A romantic idea here is one that is not realistic but is an imagined perfect situation.
93
For example, we have a very romantic view of our childhoods
94
when every Christmas was a white Christmas and every summer holiday was baking hot and spent on the beach.
95
Of course, it wasn't like that at all.
96
In reality, both Christmas and summer were cold and rainy.
97
Then we had the adjective affordable,
98
for something we have enough money to buy.
99
Finally, the phrase to be in danger of.
100
Yes, meaning the possibility of something bad happening.
101
Well, that's it for this programme.
102

103

105
Thanks for joining us and goodbye!
106
Bye-bye!
107
Well, I have to say,
108
I'm a little bit hungry and if I don't get some food soon I'm in danger of getting very grumpy.
109
You're always grumpy, Neil, but there is a very affordable cafe around the corner.
110
Let's head over there now, shall we?
111
Hmm...
112
you

文脈と背景

この動画は、食べ物や料理に関する「フーディー」というコンセプトについてのディスカッションです。ネイルとロブという二人のスピーカーが、食べ物に対する興味や情熱を持つ人々について語ります。特に、どのようにしてフーディーが料理や食材に対して深い理解を持つのか、またその背景にある文化的な要素に焦点を当てています。彼らの対話を通じて、食に対する考え方や日常会話でのフレーズを学ぶことができます。

日常コミュニケーションで使えるトップ5のフレーズ

  • I like eating out.(外食が好きです)
  • What is a foodie?(フーディーとは何ですか?)
  • I think that might be a bit romantic.(それはちょっとロマンティックかもしれません)
  • They like using good ingredients.(良い食材を使うのが好きです)
  • I hope so.(そうであればいいですね)

これらのフレーズを積極的に使うことで、英語スピーキング練習がより自然で効果的になります。特に「フーディー」という言葉を通じて、食文化についての会話を深めることができます。

ステップバイステップ シャドーイングガイド

英語のシャドーイングは、リスニング能力とスピーキング能力を同時に向上させるために非常に効果的な練習法です。以下の手順を参考にして、YouTubeで英語学習を行いましょう。

  1. 動画を視聴し、全体の内容を把握します。
  2. 最初は音声を聞きながら、内容をメモします。この時、特に気になるフレーズや単語に注目してください。
  3. 次に、音声を一時停止し、フレーズを繰り返します。声のトーンやリズムを意識することが大切です。
  4. 一度、全体を通してシャドーイングを行い、実際の会話の流れを体感します。この作業を何度も繰り返すことで、自然な英会話を身に付けることができます。
  5. 最後に、自分の録音を聞いてみて、発音やイントネーションをチェックします。特にIELTS スピーキング対策としても有効です。

この方法で練習すると、フーディーについての会話がよりスムーズになります。英語シャドーイングや英語スピーキング練習を通じて、自然な会話のスキルを高めていきましょう。

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。
