Hey everybody, welcome to this B1 English listening practice video.
2
You can use this video to practice your listening and comprehension as I speak.
3
You ready?
4
So today, I'm going to talk about doctor's appointments.
5
This is not one of my favorite topics because honestly,
6
I hate going to the doctor.
7
I'm sure some of you can sympathize with me on this one.
8
Every time I have to go to the doctor,
9
I get nervous, anxious, and I just can't wait until everything's over.
10
But that said, let's talk a little bit about the process of going to the doctor in the US.
11
So first of all, it's important to talk about health insurance.
12
In the US, most people have health insurance because without it,
13
the cost of getting medical treatment can be astronomical.
14
But there's still a problem here because the insurance itself also costs a lot of money.
15
If you're single and you're just insuring yourself,
16
the average cost per month is well over $300.
17
However, if you're insuring your whole family,
18
the average cost is over $800 per month.
19
And even though you pay this huge amount of money for your monthly premium,
20
you still have to pay more money when you actually go to the doctor's office.
21
It's crazy, I know.
22
You might be thinking, why do people pay this much money?
23
Why don't they just not get health insurance?
24
Well if you don't go to the doctor much and you don't need any major operations,
25
that would be fine.
26
But if something major happens to you or you get in an accident,
27
you're going to pay thousands and thousands of dollars to get treatment if you don't have insurance.
28
So really, in my opinion,
29
the main point of having insurance in the US is to make sure you're covered for any major unexpected events.
30
So now let's talk about the doctor's office.
31
When you go to a new doctor for the first time,
32
the receptionist usually makes you fill out a long form with all your past medical history.
33
If you're a returning patient though,
34
you don't need to do this.
35
So before you see the doctor,
36
you've got to go with the nurse to measure your height,
37
weight, and blood pressure.
38
Since I get nervous at the doctor's office,
39
my blood pressure reading is usually high when they take it,
40
so it always appears to them that I have high blood pressure.
41
After they take your measurements and everything,
42
they leave you in the room alone and you have to wait for the doctor to come.
43
Then you usually get about a 15 minute consultation with the doctor and hopefully it's productive.
44
But of course I've had many appointments in my life that I felt were unproductive or rushed.
45
It really depends on where you go and which doctor you get.
46
So lastly, the doctor writes you a prescription if you need one and you pick up your medication at the pharmacy.
47
Also, if you need to see a specialist,
48
the doctor refers you to one,
49
and then you set up that appointment when you can.
50
Aside from all this, we also have private practice doctors that have their own offices outside of this general system.
51
They're usually much more flexible and can offer better care,
52
but their resources are more limited.
53
Okay that's all for today.
54
Leave a comment and tell me how much a doctor's appointment costs in your country.
55
I'll see you next time.
56
Thank you.

このレッスンについて

このB1レベルの英語リスニング練習ビデオでは、医師の診察に関するプロセスを通じて、リスニング能力と理解力を向上させることができます。ビデオ内では、アメリカの健康保険制度や病院での流れ、処方箋の取得などについて話し合います。この内容は、英語を学ぶ上で非常に実用的で、特に医療関係の会話に自信を持つための助けになります。

重要な語彙とフレーズ

  • health insurance(健康保険)

  • prescription(処方箋)
  • consultation(相談)

練習のコツ

このビデオで話されるスピードはB1レベルに適しており、初心者から中級者まで対応できます。shadowspeakを使用して、話者の発音を真似することが非常に効果的です。リスニングしながら自分の声で繰り返すことで、英語の発音を良くすることができ、実際の会話でも自然に応答できるようになります。

ビデオを複数回視聴し、それぞれのセクションでshadow speakを実践することで、リズムやイントネーションを学ぶことができます。また、特定のフレーズや単語が出てきたら、一時停止して繰り返してみることをお勧めします。これにより、IELTS スピーキング対策にも役立ちます。

さらに、重要なポイントをメモし、他の学習者に教えることで、さらなる理解を深めることができます。YouTubeで英語学習をする際は、ビデオの内容を自分の言葉でまとめる練習も効果的です。

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。
