Hi, Ben.
3
How are you?
4
We haven't caught up with each other for ages.
5
What's new?
6
Hi, Anna.
7
I'm fine.
8
I've been thinking a lot about my family recently.
9
It's interesting how people from different generations live their lives differently.
10
I agree.
11
My family has people of all ages, from an infant to an elderly great -grandmother.
12
My little cousin is still a toddler, while my parents are middle -aged adults.
13
That's a big family.
14
How was your childhood?
15
Where did you grow up?
16
I was brought up by my parents in a small town.
17
They taught me to respect elderly people and get on with people of different ages.
18
When I was a child, I thought adults always knew what was best for everyone.
19
Really?
20
I used to think the same thing.
21
But now that I'm an adult and in my 20s, I realize that adults can make mistakes, too.
22
My parents didn't always agree with each other.
23
Did they ever think about getting divorced?
24
Yes, they went through a difficult period.
25
They argued a lot and nearly split up.
26
My father even threatened to walk out on the family.
27
But eventually, they decided to work on their relationship.
28
They didn't want to give up on their marriage.
29
I'm glad they worked things out.
30
Some couples get married because they love each other.
31
But they aren't always prepared for the challenges of married life.
32
Exactly.
33
My older cousin recently got engaged to his girlfriend.
34
They're planning to get married next year and start a family when they're financially ready.
35
That's wonderful.
36
I think people should settle down when they feel ready, rather than doing it just because their parents expect them to.
37
Young people shouldn't have to live up to everyone else's expectations.
38
You're right.
39
Right.
40
My grandparents got married when they were very young.
41
My grandmother left home at 18, left school early, and got her first job to help her family.
42
That sounds difficult.
43
Did she have a chance to go to university?
44
No, she didn't.
45
She had to put up with many difficulties.
46
Later, she had a change of career and started a small business.
47
When her father passed away, she inherited some money, which helped her expand the business.
48
Your grandmother sounds incredibly hardworking.
49
Did she ever consider emigrating abroad?
50
Yes.
51
She once wanted to emigrate to another country, but she decided to stay because she wanted to look after her elderly parents.
52
She retired from work at 65, and now she enjoys spending time with her grandchildren.
53
That's lovely.
54
My great -grandmother is a centenarian.
55
She's over 100 years old.
56
She has lived through so many changes in society.
57
Ben, wow, she must have some amazing stories to tell.
58
Does she get on well with the younger generations?
59
Most of the time, yes, but sometimes she finds it difficult to understand modern technology.
60
She doesn't always fit in with the way young people communicate, and she can't understand why we spend so much time online.
61
I can understand that.
62
Every generation has its own habits.
63
Young people sometimes run out of patience when older people don't understand their choices, while elderly people may struggle to keep up with rapid changes.
64
That's why we should try to understand each other.
65
We shouldn't judge people just because they belong to a different generation.
66
Absolutely.
67
My younger sister recently signed up for a cooking course because she wants to learn some traditional family recipes.
68
She says she doesn't want our family traditions to disappear.
69
That's a great idea.
70
I'd love to do something similar.
71
Perhaps I could sign up for a course with my grandmother and learn how to cook her favorite dishes.
72
You should!
73
Spending time together can help different generations become closer.
74
I agree.
75
In the end, whether we're infants, teenagers, middle -aged adults, or elderly people, we all need love, support, and understanding.
76
Exactly.
77
And we shouldn't rush through life.
78
We should make our own decisions, learn from our mistakes, and appreciate our families.
79
Well said, Ben.
80
Now let's go and catch up over lunch.
81
I'm starving!
82
Great idea!
83
Let's go!

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。
