シャドーイング練習: Australia's social media ban explained - 動画で英語スピーキングを学ぶ
レッスンを作成中...
1
Australia's centre-left Labor government has just passed a world-first social media ban, making headlines across the globe.
2
Australia has now done something that no other country has been able to do.
3
They are all looking at what we are doing.
4
The Senate approved the world's strictest laws, and they are applauding what we are doing.
5
Anybody out there who's got kids, listen up.
6
The first country in the world to ban the use of social media apps for anyone under the age of 16.
7
That's pretty huge.
8
The ban will prevent children under the age of 16 from creating an account or using social media sites,
9
including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X and Snapchat.
10
At this stage, YouTube will be exempt, along with messaging services, online games like Roblox, and health or education apps,
11
but those details will be worked out over the next 12 months.
12
The hope is that the ban will protect children from the harmful side of social media.
13
It is about making sure that children have a childhood and parents have peace of mind.
14
When you limit social media use, depression and anxiety gets better.
15
77% of Australians support the ban, according to international research group YouGov.
16
Parents are scared and overwhelmed, and they don't know how to protect their children.
17
But there's been no shortage of opposition.
18
Social media has had catastrophic consequences for some young people.
19
But cutting it off altogether will have catastrophic consequences for other young people.
20
That parents over the summer holidays can tell their kids it's illegal to be on your phone.
21
It's illegal to be on social media.
22
Get off it.
23
It doesn't actually make social media safer for young people.
24
And that's the devastating thing about this.
25
Some raising concerns government is encroaching on what should be a parent's responsibility.
26
Ultimately it's a tool that parents can have, but they're still the determinant of how they raise their children, not government.
27
Booting them off social media isn't going to wind back the clock so that they can live the childhoods that we did.
28
It's going to invariably nudge them into darker, less safe corners of the internet the internet.
29
Labor's bill was introduced just over a week ago before going to a final vote today, but the process has been criticised by some as being rushed
30
in a bid to clear the federal government's agenda before the end of the parliamentary year.
31
We are not sure yet whether this hasty blunt attempt will do anything to reduce the social harms.
32
Clearly we should be doing something, but this is not the way to do it.
33
It eventually passed through Australia's parliament with support from both of the country's major parties but not without change.
34
One question remaining, how will tech companies actually verify the age of their users?
35
Some were concerned the ban would force Australians to hand over their government-issued ID, including passports and driver's licences, to prove that they're over the age of 16.
36
In response, last-minute amendments were made to prevent platforms from requesting digital ID unless they offer an alternate method of age verification.
37
That could take the form of experimental facial recognition technology
38
or linking a credit card to an account to prove you're over 18.
39
These amendments mean that no Australian will be forced to use government identification,
40
including digital ID, for age assurance on social media.
41
This is a rubbish bill, it has no substance.
42
And it doesn't even take place for another 12 months.
43
Giving 12 months for social media companies to develop the technology.
44
With a threat of a $50 million fine for non-compliance hanging over their heads, the onus is firmly on big tech to make sure this ban works.
45
Platforms now have a social responsibility to ensure The safety of our kids is a priority for them.
46
A digital duty of care has also been imposed, requiring platforms to delete any personal information collected.
47
It also sends a strong signal to social media platforms, treat Australians' privacy seriously.
48
We don't argue that its implementation will be perfect,
49
Just like the alcohol ban for under-18s doesn't mean that someone under 18 never has access, but we know that it's the right thing to do.
50
Big tech companies are unsurprisingly expressing concern over the new laws, drawing criticism from global tech giant Meta and the ire of Elon Musk.
51
Oh, look, I think we should treat the concerns of social media companies with the world's largest grain of salt.
52
Australian children can continue using social media for now.
53
The ban will come into effect in a year.
54
Thank you.

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。
