1
Hi, I'm Dolly Parton and today I'll be doing the Wired Auto Complete Interview.
2
I don't Google myself because I pretty much know what I'm up to
3
and if I don't know all I gotta do is pick up a National Enquirer magazine.
4
Yeah right.
5
Now let's see what the internet is asking.
6
First question is, is Dolly Parton a a soprano.
7
You mean mafia?
8
No, but if you're talking about my voice, I would say I'm a soprano.
9
That means very high, and I'm a very high singer.
10
The next question is, is Dolly Parton country music?
11
Well, absolutely.
12
I'm a country girl, and I started out in country music.
13
That's my favorite.
14
Of course, I like to think that I can do all sorts of music now.
15
I've been accepted all over the world.
16
I've had several pop records and all sorts of styles, but I'm a country girl, so yes, I'm country music, no doubt.
17
Next question, is Dolly Parton godmother to Miley Cyrus?
18
Well, everybody knows that.
19
I actually say I'm the fairy godmother of Miley Cyrus.
20
Is Dolly Parton still Magnolia?
21
I think I'm a still Magnolia, strongest steel of my faith and pride.
22
Like so many good, strong women, I really relate to that.
23
As a matter of fact, I wrote a song called Eagle When She Flies for that movie.
24
They didn't use it, but it has lines like gentle as the sweet magnolia, strong as steel, her faith and pride.
25
She's an everlasting shoulder.
26
She's the leaning post of life.
27
And I'd like to think that's who I am.
28
So I am definitely a steel magnolia.
29
The next question, is Dolly Parton married?
30
Well, yes, I am married.
31
I have been married for 54 years this year, 2020, and I have been with my husband for 56 years.
32
We dated for two years before we married, so we've been together most of our lives, and we're still happy.
33
Can you believe that?
34
Next question is, who Dolly Parton?
35
Well, I don't know.
36
Dolly Parton's a whole lot of things.
37
I'd like to think that I'm a good friend, a good daughter, a good aunt, a good sister.
38
And I love my fans, so I'm just all kinds of things.
39
I'm a girl of many colors.
40
Who does Dolly Parton look like?
41
Well, a clown?
42
Well, I actually patterned my look after what they called the town tramp in my hometown when I was a little girl.
43
This woman that used to walk the streets, had all this makeup and hair, high-heeled shoes.
44
I thought she was so beautiful.
45
And everybody used to say, oh, she ain't nothing but trash.
46
And I used to say, well, that's what I'm going to be when I grow up, trash.
47
And that's kind of how I look.
48
But I like to think I'm a little more than that.
49
Question, who did Dolly Parton write songs for?
50
Well, I always write songs for everybody.
51
I know a lot of people out there have all these feelings, and they're not as lucky as me to be able to have the gift of rhyme
52
or to be able to sing songs and write songs.
53
So I write for myself, but I write for you as well.
54
Moving on to the next search, which is what Dolly Parton.
55
What is Dolly Parton up to?
56
Well, I'm up to my neck at work right now.
57
I've got a new Christmas album called A Holly Dolly Christmas, and it's starring all sorts of great singers and great people like Jimmy Fallon,
58
Michael Buble, Miley Cyrus, Willie Nelson, Billy Ray Cyrus, my brother Randy, Rondon, Darren Vincent.
59
Lord, I just got all kinds of people on this album, and I hope you're going to enjoy that too.
60
Next question, what is Dolly Parton's favorite color?
61
Well, you know what?
62
My favorite color is a no color.
63
It's white.
64
I love to wear white when I'm performing on stage.
65
It just makes me feel like all white and airy.
66
So it's a no color, but I do love all colors.
67
What is Dolly Parton's favorite food?
68
Well, that's easy.
69
Potatoes.
70
Every diet I've ever fell off of has been because of a potato.
71
Either french fries or mashed potatoes or baked potatoes.
72
Potato, potato, potato.
73
I never met a spud I didn't like.
74
What is Dolly Parton's hair color?
75
Black and white.
76
Actually my little nephew said that about my sister Stella.
77
He was in school
78
and the teacher was asking the different children what color is your mama's hair ones said brown
79
or red and my little nephew said black and white
80
and we got such a kick out of that because my sister Stella's like me, even though our hair is not black, we do have our hair blonde so it looks very dark at the roots.
81
But I'm actually a dirty blonde.
82
I just keep it bleached.
83
I started bleaching it early but I was born white-headed.
84
I was kind of a cotton top when I was little.
85
What was Dolly Parton's first song?
86
Well, the first song actually was before I started writing before I could write it down.
87
I was about five years old.
88
I had a little cob doll that mama made me, and I named her Tiny Tassel Top because she had corn tassels for hair.
89
So I wrote a little song.
90
Little tiny tassel top.
91
I love you an awful lot.
92
Hope you never go away.
93
I want you to stay.
94
Ta-da.
95
But I started writing songs when I was young, and my first record was called Puppy Love when I was 10 years old.
96
Next search is Can Dolly Parton Cook?
97
You better believe it.
98
I'm a really, really good cook.
99
I'm not a gourmet cook.
100
My food is not pretty, but it's good.
101
I cook like my mom, my grandmas, and my aunts.
102
I'm still one of those people that really can cook like the old days, that soul food cooking.
103
And that's the kind I like best.
104
I can't eat it all the time anymore because it does have a lot of calories in it.
105
But yes, I love to cook, and yes, I can cook.
106
Can Dolly Parton still sing?
107
Lord, I hope so.
108
Got a new album out, singing every day.
109
Actually, I try to sing all the time, and they say if you keep your pipes all cleaned out, you can always sing, and I try to always stay busy.
110
So if I ever could sing, I still can.
111
Can Dolly Parton yodel?
112
I guess I can.
113
Yodel a little a-hoo.
114
Everybody can do that one, right?
115
Actually, I kind of have a form of a country yodel that I do, like incorporate it in different songs, like a song I had out years ago called Mule Skinner Blues,
116
and I kind of yodel at the ends of some of the songs.
117
I'm not a true yodeler, like that kind of sound where they really do that from the Swiss Alps.
118
Not that kind of yodeler, but I can yodel.
119
Next search is, does Dolly Parton do concerts?
120
Well, I have been doing concerts all of my life, for the most part.
121
And I have not toured for the last couple of years.
122
Of course, nobody's touring right now.
123
But I do love to be in concert because I love that feeling I get from my audience, that energy and that love we kind of swap off to one another.
124
And I have to say, although I have not been in concert lately, I really miss it and can't wait to get back to where I can actually have some interaction with my fans.
125
Does Dolly Parton drink coffee?
126
Yes, I do, and I drink tea as well.
127
But I'm one of those people, I like to get up in the morning, tumble out of bed and stumble to the kitchen, pour myself a cup of Ambition.
128
And usually that Ambition is a cup of coffee.
129
I'm good with a cup and a half of coffee every morning.
130
After that, I'm ready for the day.
131
Does Dolly Parton write her own music?
132
Well, I write the biggest part of it.

Does Dolly Parton have a new album?
135
Well, yes I do.
136
It's a Christmas album.
137
It's called A Holly Dolly Christmas.
138
What else?
139
How corny is that, right?
140
Or cute, I thought.
141
Anyway, I've always loved the song A Holly Jolly Christmas.
142
And I thought, well, I'm doing a Christmas album.
143
I need a good, clever title.
144
And I thought that was just perfectly appropriate.
145
Well, thank you, Internet, for all those questions.
146
I hope maybe you learned something.
147
And I hope I answered them properly for you.
148
If not, we'll do it again sometime, and I'll fix it.

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。
