How are you getting to college?
13
It's already five to nine.
14
You've missed the bus.
15
Are you going to walk?
16
No. I'm borrowing your car, remember?
17
Oh, Matthew, I need it today.
18
If you want to borrow the car, you need to ask me several days before.
19
Sorry, you're going to have to walk.
20
It just isn't convenient today.
21
But I did ask you.
22
We talked about it last week, don't you remember?
23
I've promised to help Alan move all his books and things after my lecture today.
24
He's moving to a new flat and his car's broken down.
25
I've got to help him move his things.
26
He can't stay in the old flat after today.
27
I promised him.
28
All right, all right.
29
Of course you must keep your promise.
30
I remember now you did tell me, but I thought you said next Wednesday.
31
You said the 9th, and that's next week when I'm in Birmingham for a meeting, so I shan't need the car.
32
I didn't ask for it next Wednesday.
33
I've got an exam next Wednesday.
34
I can't help Alan when I'm doing an exam, can I?
35
No, I suppose not.
36
Well, I expect you're right.
37
I didn't write it down, so it's my fault.
38
Next time, we must both write it down and make sure we write down the same date.
39
OK.
40
So, can I have it today?
41
I need to go or I'll miss my lecture.
42
Well, what am I supposed to do?
43
I need to be at work in half an hour.
44
Well, I'll give you a lift there on my way to college.
45
How about that?
46
I suppose I haven't got much choice.
47
Come on, then.

Now listen again.

シャドーイングのステップバイステップガイド

この会話は、shadowing siteやshadow speechの練習に最適ですが、少し速いスピードと自然な発音が難しい点です。以下の方法で効果的に練習しましょう!

  1. 1回目:全体を聴く - 会話の流れとトピックを理解し、マシューと母親の問題点(車の貸し出しのトラブル)を把握します。
  2. 2回目:フレーズをメモる - 先ほど紹介した5つのフレーズや、「I suppose」「Well」などの間投詞をメモし、発音を確認します。
  3. 3回目:シャドーイングを試す - 1秒遅れで発話し、イントネーションやリズムを真似ます。特に「What am I supposed to do?」のような疑問文の発音に注意しましょう。
  4. 4回目:録音して比較する - 自分の発音を録音し、元の会話と比べて、スピードやアクセントの違いを確認します。
  5. 5回目:ゆっくりと復唱する - ゆっくりと会話を復唱し、自然な表現を身につけます。「We must both write it down」のような文は、単語のつながり(write it → ライト・イット)を練習しましょう。

この方法でshadowspeakの技術を向上させ、日常会話での自信をつけましょう!

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。
