1
Nico Rossberg.
2
Where's his journey taking him?
3
At 24 years of age, he's already been all over the world.
4
Formula One makes it possible.
5
And almost wherever he goes, he gets by well.
6
No wonder, as he speaks four languages fluently.
7
Nico Rossberg, an exemplary racing driver.
8
Born with speed already in his veins, thanks to Father Kiki.
9
My father raced himself.
10
He was a Formula 1 driver himself.
11
In fact, winning the world championship in 1982 with Williams.
12
So literally in the same position I'm in now, more or less.
13
And so I grew up with it really.
14
I was always there watching him and it always fascinated me.
15
So I thought one day I'd like to do it myself.
16
So then step by step I tried go-karts and enjoyed that and then started doing some competitions and started winning.
17
And that's when it really gets you hooked onto it because winning is just an amazing feeling.
18
And that's how I just progressed step by step all the way to where I am now.
19
In the 2006 season, Nico Rosberg then ultimately got his first Formula One drive, racing for the Williams team.
20
Although it was acknowledged that he had great talent, he failed to make a lightning start, often due to bad luck and the car at his disposal.
21
Nevertheless, his star began to rise, if only modestly.
22
The greatest success to date for the Wiesbaden board driver, second place in the 2008 night race in Singapore.
23
After many disappointments, a reason to smile and an incentive to push on in 2009.
24
Last year in general it was quite a poor season for us.
25
We had some highlights which were nice but in general it was a bit of a struggle.
26
So we can definitely do better this year
27
and I hope we can do a lot better this year which would be really nice for the whole team.
28
Indeed, he's very much a team player.
29
Smart, technically clued up, and a guy with a good work-life balance.
30
Monaco is where he calls home.
31
He enjoys living, relaxing and training here in the sun of southern France.
32
When I grew up here, I came here when I was very young, just a toddler.
33
Then I went to school here.
34
All my friends are here and all my regular haunts.
35
So this is quite simply home and that's why I also really like spending my time here. to make it.
36
smile a little bit because there are some of the characteristics of youth.
37
You know, I know it all and I can get the job done.
38
But the truth is he does know most of it and he does get the job done.
39
And in that respect, considering his age to say someone 20 and 40 years ago of the same age,
40
he is so much more advanced in his career and in terms of maturity.
41
In other words, I guess I'm saying the youth of today has seen more,
42
done more, will achieve more by the age of 21 than they probably would have done 20 and 40 years ago.
43
And Nico is typical of that new type of young man.
44
That sounds like a very satisfied team boss.
45
And this year Nico Rosberg can continue to employ his talents for Williams' benefit.
46
However, which team he'll be racing for in 2010 is still an open question.
47
His contract with Williams is up.
48
And despite some minor successes this year, Rosberg's hunger for victory seems certain to take him to one of the top championship contenders.

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。
