レッスンを作成中...
1
G'day!
2
Today we're going to take a look at, in my opinion, one of the most fascinating birds of all, hummingbirds.
3
These tiny birds are the smallest of all birds.
4
The smallest, the bee hummingbird is just 5cm long, about the length of your finger, and weighs just 2 grams,
5
about the weight of a paper clip.
6
Let's take a look at the different parts of a hummingbird.
7
They have a beak, two eyes, two feet, two wings and a tail.
8
A hummingbird's needle-like beak and long tongue helps it to feed on nectar, a sweet liquid found inside flowers.
9
Some also eat small insects and spikes.
10
Hummingbird's wings beat fast, really fast, more than 70 times in one second.
11
This makes the humming sound that hummingbirds are famous for.
12
Another cool thing I learned about hummingbirds is that they are the only bird that can hover and fly backwards.
13
Some can even fly upside down!
14
Amazing!
15
Oh, and on that note, gotta fly!
16
See you next time!
17
Thank 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。
