I'm so happy to have you here.
0:00.00 – 0:01.64 (1.6s)
2
This is the first time having you on, so thanks.
0:01.14 – 0:04.00 (2.9s)
3
So I know you were nervous about the entrance.
0:03.86 – 0:06.56 (2.7s)
4
You thought, I think people feel like they're supposed to dance.
0:06.02 – 0:09.30 (3.3s)
5
And so, and I was really surprised, because I was here earlier today for your rehearsal, and then you abandoned it.
0:08.66 – 0:16.92 (8.3s)
6
But we should at least show them the rehearsal, because it was really good.
0:16.32 – 0:19.92 (3.6s)
7
Shout out to them people.
0:20.92 – 0:22.30 (1.4s)
8
People.
0:21.94 – 0:23.60 (1.7s)
9
People.
0:22.94 – 0:24.14 (1.2s)
10
I get it how I live it.
0:23.44 – 0:25.26 (1.8s)
11
I live it how I do it.
0:25.26 – 0:28.16 (2.9s)
12
Come to my, a pillow with a lemon.
0:27.68 – 0:31.46 (3.8s)
13
Not to smell a living.
0:30.84 – 0:32.40 (1.6s)
14
It's just your eyes, get a sitter.
0:32.10 – 0:34.70 (2.6s)
15
This ain't a scrimmage.
0:33.72 – 0:36.14 (2.4s)
16
My, she's scrimmage.
0:35.34 – 0:38.10 (2.8s)
17
I tell you we won't stop.
0:37.14 – 0:38.86 (1.7s)
18
It was good.
0:43.14 – 0:44.46 (1.3s)
19
Your daughter's looking at you like, I've never seen you dance like that.
0:49.98 – 0:53.06 (3.1s)
20
Hi.
0:54.46 – 0:55.54 (1.1s)
21
So the last time we saw each other, it was at the White House.
0:55.98 – 0:59.24 (3.3s)
22
We both were receiving the Medal of Freedom.
0:58.26 – 1:01.24 (3.0s)
23
And that was quite a day, wasn't it?
1:00.98 – 1:02.78 (1.8s)
24
That was an amazing group.
1:02.48 – 1:03.98 (1.5s)
25
Yeah, really, really fun.
1:03.56 – 1:05.46 (1.9s)
26
So you are here with your daughter, who is 21, right?
1:05.50 – 1:09.46 (4.0s)
27
And you were 21 when you became a billionaire.
1:09.48 – 1:12.86 (3.4s)
28
Is that right?
1:12.68 – 1:13.76 (1.1s)
29
Almost, yeah.
1:14.06 – 1:15.14 (1.1s)
30
All right, so around that age.
1:14.72 – 1:16.82 (2.1s)
31
You were like the youngest person to become a billionaire.
1:16.36 – 1:19.70 (3.3s)
32
Is that right?
1:19.34 – 1:20.38 (1.0s)
33
Yeah, in terms of my own, earning it on my own, yeah.
1:21.22 – 1:24.24 (3.0s)
34
Right.
1:23.78 – 1:24.56 (0.8s)
35
OK, so, well, it's just the most important thing, yes.
1:24.78 – 1:27.28 (2.5s)
36
So did you, when you were a kid, did you care about money?
1:27.10 – 1:32.12 (5.0s)
37
Or you just cared about technology, and that's, it just happened?
1:31.60 – 1:35.44 (3.8s)
38
Mostly I loved software.
1:35.92 – 1:37.78 (1.9s)
39
I do remember at the private school I went to, there were other kids whose families were better off.
1:37.76 – 1:42.70 (4.9s)
40
Like they had a Porsche or something.
1:42.50 – 1:44.66 (2.2s)
41
But it wasn't that big of a deal.
1:44.12 – 1:46.70 (2.6s)
42
My thing was that I just loved doing software.
1:46.48 – 1:49.66 (3.2s)
43
I loved hiring people.
1:49.12 – 1:50.88 (1.8s)
44
And I was stunned when it ended up being so valuable.
1:50.84 – 1:54.24 (3.4s)
45
Really?
1:54.18 – 1:55.10 (0.9s)
46
Yeah.
1:54.82 – 1:55.90 (1.1s)
47
It surprised you?
1:55.60 – 1:57.30 (1.7s)
48
Yeah, because I always had to be careful that we wouldn't hire too many people.
1:57.08 – 2:02.48 (5.4s)
49
I was always worried because people who worked for me were older than me and they had kids.
2:02.44 – 2:06.58 (4.1s)
50
And I always thought, well, what if we don't get paid?
2:06.04 – 2:08.72 (2.7s)
51
Will I be able to meet the payroll?
2:08.54 – 2:10.36 (1.8s)
52
So I was always very conservative about the finances.
2:09.94 – 2:14.10 (4.2s)
53
And then when we did go public, what was I, 30 by then, then I was kind of stunned at what it multiplied out to.
2:13.74 – 2:25.50 (11.8s)
54
Right.
2:25.12 – 2:25.98 (0.9s)
55
So when you became a billionaire, at what point did you start relaxing?
2:25.66 – 2:30.88 (5.2s)
56
Were you still nervous when you became a billionaire, like, I got to watch this?
2:30.84 – 2:34.26 (3.4s)
57
Well, I always wanted to have enough money in the bank so that even if our customers didn't pay us for a year, we could still keep paying everybody and do the R&D.
2:34.70 – 2:43.92 (9.2s)
58
So I'd still be viewed as conservative.
2:43.40 – 2:46.26 (2.9s)
59
I don't have that many things that are extravagant tastes, so it didn't change too much.
2:47.78 – 2:54.30 (6.5s)
60
So nothing really changed?
2:53.58 – 2:55.24 (1.7s)
61
So you didn't say, oh, I'm going to buy a Porsche?
2:54.72 – 2:57.70 (3.0s)
62
I did.
2:57.24 – 2:58.06 (0.8s)
63
OK, all right.
2:57.76 – 2:59.08 (1.3s)
64
Yeah.
2:58.58 – 2:59.22 (0.6s)
65
You did.
2:59.10 – 2:59.96 (0.9s)
66
All right.
2:59.58 – 3:00.48 (0.9s)
67
Yeah, that was an indulgence.
3:00.46 – 3:02.88 (2.4s)
68
And then eventually, from my travel, I got a plane, which is a huge indulgence.
3:02.30 – 3:08.02 (5.7s)
69
So those are my two sins.
3:07.56 – 3:08.96 (1.4s)
70
Well, not really, because you travel all the time.
3:09.18 – 3:11.58 (2.4s)
71
So that's important that you have a plane.
3:11.06 – 3:13.50 (2.4s)
72
So you have a Porsche and a plane, and that's it.
3:13.20 – 3:15.74 (2.5s)
73
Well, in terms of crazy things, yeah.
3:16.28 – 3:18.82 (2.5s)
74
Yeah.
3:18.42 – 3:19.06 (0.6s)
75
There's not like any wild, like you didn't build an aquarium with sharks in it, or something like that?
3:18.92 – 3:24.22 (5.3s)
76
We have a trampoline room in our house.
3:24.36 – 3:26.22 (1.9s)
77
Oh, wow.
3:25.86 – 3:27.02 (1.2s)
78
The kids like that.
3:26.54 – 3:28.34 (1.8s)
79
Indoor trampoline.
3:27.36 – 3:28.88 (1.5s)
80
I recommend it.
3:28.50 – 3:29.74 (1.2s)
81
Just one giant trampoline?
3:31.48 – 3:33.52 (2.0s)
82
Yeah.
3:33.08 – 3:34.04 (1.0s)
83
Yeah, it's a room with a very high ceiling.
3:33.82 – 3:36.42 (2.6s)
84
Well, yeah, I hope.
3:36.14 – 3:37.56 (1.4s)
85
Yeah.
3:36.96 – 3:38.16 (1.2s)
86
That would be cruel if you didn't put a high ceiling in there.
3:37.46 – 3:41.26 (3.8s)
87
Go on, kids.
3:41.90 – 3:42.62 (0.7s)
88
All right, so let's talk about this.
3:43.84 – 3:45.74 (1.9s)
89
So you have already put $40 billion of your own money into your foundation.
3:45.28 – 3:52.12 (6.8s)
90
Yep.
3:51.92 – 3:52.54 (0.6s)
91
40 billion.
3:52.12 – 3:53.36 (1.2s)
92
And you've, I think, kind of encouraged other billionaires to do this as well.
3:54.06 – 3:58.56 (4.5s)
93
Because it really is kind of up to the people to fix the problems in the world, it seems, right?
3:58.44 – 4:04.84 (6.4s)
94
So what is your main focus right now?
4:04.98 – 4:08.40 (3.4s)
95
My wife, Melinda, and I picked global health as our big thing.
4:09.68 – 4:12.88 (3.2s)
96
The fact that still we have 5 million kids who die under the age of 5.
4:12.60 – 4:17.96 (5.4s)
97
Now, it was over 10 million when we got started.
4:18.44 – 4:20.76 (2.3s)
98
So there's been huge progress over the last 18 years.
4:20.34 – 4:24.66 (4.3s)
99
So things like malaria, diarrhea, coming up with new drugs and vaccines, and getting them out to all the kids in the world.
4:25.20 – 4:32.10 (6.9s)
100
That's our main thing.
4:31.80 – 4:33.72 (1.9s)
101
Our second biggest thing is all in the US, which is trying to help improve the education system here.
4:33.48 – 4:39.26 (5.8s)
102
Yeah, which needs, boy, right?
4:39.44 – 4:42.96 (3.5s)
103
I mean, and how do you do that?
4:42.36 – 4:47.18 (4.8s)
104
I always think you get what you pay for.
4:46.70 – 4:49.34 (2.6s)
105
So if you don't pay teachers, because most teachers are paying out of their own pocket to take care of these students.
4:48.36 – 4:54.62 (6.3s)
106
So how do you do that?
4:55.06 – 4:57.02 (2.0s)
107
Well, there are some really phenomenal teachers.
4:57.50 – 5:00.64 (3.1s)
108
And so the dream is that you could take that top 10% and have them help the others to get best practices, the best teaching ideas to spread all over the country.
5:00.06 – 5:11.40 (11.3s)
109
And how would, you know, we're listening to you, obviously, $40 billion does a lot.
5:11.10 – 5:16.84 (5.7s)
110
And there are other people that are helping.
5:16.56 – 5:18.92 (2.4s)
111
But what can we do?
5:19.10 – 5:21.42 (2.3s)
112
What is the best thing that you could say that just one person can do to help?
5:21.18 – 5:26.14 (5.0s)
113
Well, particularly with schools, the ability to go to the local public school or charter school and engage with the kids, mentor kids, talk about the kind of work you do, there's huge opportunities there.
5:26.10 – 5:38.86 (12.8s)
114
With the challenges, say, in Africa, part of it's people's voice.
5:39.42 – 5:45.12 (5.7s)
115
There's a real question now whether the US sort of takes this less than 1% of our budget that saves tens of millions of lives, some other we don't prioritize continuing that.
5:45.24 – 5:58.20 (13.0s)
116
So it's a hot debate in terms of is it good for America to be generous and help the rest of the world live a healthy life.
5:57.66 – 6:05.76 (8.1s)
117
Well, I mean, the fact that you're helping so many people all around the world, that you have this, because that to me is what money, when you have that kind of money, it's for.
6:05.40 – 6:14.84 (9.4s)
118
It's like that's the best thing you can do is actually you're making such a huge difference.
6:14.28 – 6:19.36 (5.1s)
119
So I'm glad you're a billionaire.
6:18.72 – 6:21.24 (2.5s)
120
All right.
6:24.92 – 6:25.30 (0.4s)
121
All right, you can learn more about the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation on the website and at gatesletter.com.
6:26.12 – 6:32.02 (5.9s)
このレッスンについて
「Bill Gates Chats with Ellen for the First Time」を使って、シャドーイングで英語を練習しましょう。
毎日15〜30分の練習で、IELTSスピーキングへの自信と実践的な英会話力が身につきます。
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。
ShadowingEnglishでの効果的な学習方法
- 動画を選ぶ: 自然で明瞭な英語が使われているYouTube動画を選びましょう。TED Talks、BBC News、映画のシーン、ポッドキャスト、IELTS模範解答などが最適です。URLをコピーして検索バーに貼り付けてください。短い動画（5分以内）や、自分が本当に興味を持てるテーマから始めるのがコツです。
- まず聞いて内容を理解する: 最初は1倍速でただ聞くだけにしましょう。まだ繰り返す必要はありません。文の意味を理解し、話者がどのように単語を強調し、音を繋げ、間を取っているかに注目してください。内容を把握してからシャドーイングに入ると、はるかに効果的です。
- シャドーイングモードを設定する:
- Wait Mode（待機モード）:
+3sまたは+5sを選ぶと、動画が一文を読み終えた後に自動で一時停止し、繰り返す時間が生まれます。完全に手動でコントロールしたい場合はManualを選んでNextを自分で押しましょう。 - Sub Sync（字幕同期）: YouTubeの字幕と音声がずれることがあります。
±100msで調整して、正確なタイミングで追えるようにしてください。
- Wait Mode（待機モード）:
- 声に出してシャドーイングする（最重要）: ここが練習の本質です。文が流れると同時に——または一時停止中に——はっきりと自信を持って声に出して繰り返しましょう。ただ単語を読むだけでなく、話者のリズム、強調、高低、連音をそっくりそのまま真似することが大切です。「影」のように話者に重なるのが理想。Repeat機能を使って同じ文を何度も繰り返し、自然に出てくるまで定着させましょう。
- 徐々に難易度を上げて続ける: 一つのパッセージに慣れたら、さらに挑戦してみましょう。速度を <code>1.25x</code> や <code>1.5x</code> に上げれば、高速の言語反射を鍛えられます。Wait Modeを <code>Off</code> にして連続シャドーイングするのが最も上級で効果的なモードです。毎日15〜30分継続すれば、数週間で目に見える変化を実感できます。
