Hello boys and girls and welcome to Brain Bank.
2
My name is Melanie and I'll be your teacher for today.
3
Now in this lesson we're going to read a book called Night Shift.
4
Night Shift.
5
And this book is by Josh Ryan.
6
He is the author of this book.
7
Now, does anybody know what night shift is?
8
Yes.
9
We see two words, night and shift.
10
So I think everybody knows what night is, right?
11
Night is the opposite of day.
12
Usually at night, you are sleeping, right?
13
Well, not in this case.
14
A night shift is when somebody works at night.
15
So we can say that this man is working the night shift.
16
He is not sleeping.
17
He is working.
18
And what is his job?
19
Can we see what his job is?
20
Well, it's a little bit hard to see, but down here I see an airplane.
21
And so I can guess that he is an air traffic controller.
22
He is looking at the computer, and he's looking out his window,
23
and he is helping pilots take off and land their planes.
24
So he has a very important job.
25
Somebody has to do that during the day, but we also need somebody to do that at night.
26
So this man is working the night shift.
27
Very good.
28
So once again, night shift.
29
Let's all say it together, shall we?
30
Night shift.
31
Night shift.
32
And once again, a night shift is when you're working at night.
33
So here we see daytime and nighttime.
34
Some people work during the day.
35
Most people work during the day.
36
But there are a lot of people who work at night.
37
And they work the night shift.
38
Very good.
39
Now, here we see a very important job, a very important person.
40
What do you think she is doing?
41
Yes, she looks like a doctor.
42
She has a stethoscope around her neck, and she's listening to a patient's chest.
43
And we can say, doctors work at night.
44
Can we read that all together?
45
Doctors work at night.
46
Yes, they do.
47
Because sometimes when people get sick or people get hurt, we need a doctor to help us, whether it's daytime or nighttime, right?
48
So yes, doctors work at night.
49
And what do we call a person that the doctor is helping?
50
Very good.
51
We call that person a patient.
52
A patient.
53
Can everyone say patient?
54
Patient.
55
Very good.
56
Now, this also kind of looks like a doctor, but she is not a doctor.
57
She is a nurse.
58
And also, do you think nurses work at night?
59
Yes, they do.
60
Because just like doctors, people get sick at all times of the day and the night.
61
So they need some help.
62
Nurses work at night.
63
Let's read it all together.
64
Nurses work at night.
65
Very good.
66
Next, we have another job.
67
Does anyone know what she does?
68
I see many dials and buttons.
69
Hmm, I see a big window.
70
Aha!
71
I think she is a pilot.
72
Yes, I was right.
73
Pilots work at night.
74
Let's read it all together.
75
Pilots work at night.
76
Yes, sometimes people have to travel at all times of the day and night.
77
So we need someone who can drive the airplane, in this case, a pilot.
78
Very good.
79
Ah, here we have another kind of job.
80
What do you think these men are doing?
81
Yes, down here I see lots of fish.
82
Ah, it's a clue, the fish.
83
These men are fishermen.
84
Fishermen work at night.
85
Fishermen work at night.
86
They work in the day and they work at night too.
87
While fishermen work at night.
88
And here it looks like these fishermen caught a lot of fish, huh?
89
All of these fish are in what?
90
Did these fishermen go fishing with a fishing pole?
91
No, they used something else.
92
This is called a net.
93
They used a very large net to catch their fish.
94
Okay, here we have another job.
95
He looks like he has a tool.
96
He looks like he is building or fixing something.
97
Let's see what his job is, shall we?
98
Ah, railroad workers work at night.
99
This job is very important, and it should be done at night at night because during the day is when most trains are running.
100
So if the railroad needs to be repaired or it needs to be built, most railroad workers work at night.
101
So let's read it all together, shall we?
102
Railroad workers work at night.
103
Yes they do.
104
Okay, now here we have another kind of job.
105
We have a man and he is driving, is it a car?
106
Not a car, this is a very large truck.
107
He is a truck driver.
108
Truck drivers work at night.
109
Let's say it all together, shall we?
110
Truck drivers work at night.
111
Now a truck driver's job is very important also
112
because in their truck they have lots of goods or products and they must take those things from one place to another.
113
So truck drivers must drive sometimes all day and sometimes all night.
114
Very important job.
115
This is another very important job.
116
Does anyone know what these men are doing?
117
They're wearing yellow like the fishermen, but they are not fishermen.
118
Yes, back here we can see a fire.
119
A fire.
120
So these men are firefighters.
121
And it looks like they are saving this little girl from the fire.
122
Firefighters work at night.
123
Let's read it all together.
124
Firefighters work at night.
125
Yes, they do.
126
Now a firefighter sometimes works in the day, sometimes works at night.
127
It all depends on when the fire is.
128
And as we know, fires are emergency situations, so we can't always know when the fire will happen.
129
So firefighters have an important job because they must always be ready.
130
Okay, here's another important job for the safety of people.
131
You can kind of see she has a patch on her shirt
132
and it gives a hint as to what her job is.
133
Does anyone know what she does?
134
Yes, she is a police officer.
135
Police work at night.
136
Let's read it all together.
137
Police work at night.
138
They work during the day and at night.
139
They have many, many duties to do.
140
Ah, here's another job, very different from a police officer.
141
What are they doing?
142
These look like newspapers.
143
Ah-ha!
144
They are printers.
145
Printers make newspapers and other magazines or publications, and sometimes they have to work at night.
146
Printers work at night.
147
Let's read it all together.
148
Printers work at night.
149
Sometimes they have to work at night to get the newspaper printed on time for the next morning
150
because people want their news ready when they wake up.
151
And ah, I like this man.
152
He is a baker.
153
He is baking lots of bread.
154
Did you know that bakers also work at night?
155
They do.
156
Bakers work at night.
157
Bakers work at night.
158
Now bakers must work at night because in the morning people come in and they want fresh bread.
159
So in order for the bread to be fresh, the bakers sometimes have to work all night.
160
So yes, bakers work at night.
161
And this is also an important job.
162
Some people don't think of it as a job, but it's important.
163
This is a mommy.
164
She is a parent or a mommy of this little baby.
165
Parents work at night too.
166
If this little baby cries, somebody has to take care of her.
167
Somebody has to feed her.
168
So also a very important job is being a parent.
169
Parents work at night too.
170
Did you enjoy this story?
171
I enjoyed it as well.
172
I'll see you next time.
173
But in the meantime, study hard, okay?
174
Bye-bye.
175
you

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。
