Hi, Mr. Kimball.
2
How are you doing this afternoon?
3
I'm fine.
4
How are you?
5
I'm doing good.
6
Even when I'm doing bad, I'm doing good.
7
Sounds pretty deep.
8
Have a magnificent day!
9
You know what?
10
Um...
11
I wasn't being honest with you, produce.
12
I'm not fine.
13
But are you sick?
14
I don't think so.
15
Maybe you just need to smile.
16
A careful heart is good medicine.
17
Where'd you get that, a bumper sticker?
18
You told me that I was smart, remember?
19
Yeah.
20
Yeah?
21
Do you wanna see how smart I am?
22
Uh, well, I'll tell you what.
23
Maybe not today, because I gotta...
24
I gotta...
25
Pick up that melon.
26
All right.
27
They label one of these fruits and vegetables with some numbers on them.
28
But I know the number on the top of that melon.
29
Okay, go.
30
4329. Yeah, 4329.
31
That's correct.
32
That's impressive produce.
33
Good job.
34
Peel.
35
Orange juice.
36
4422. Yep, correct.
37
Banana.
38
That's the easy one.
39
Everybody likes bananas.

9669. Tangerine.
43
3144. Greenish, Miss Apple, 417.
44
Yep.
45
Here we go.
46
I'm really impressed.
47
I mean, you're kind of like Rain Man or something.
48
Except I made a bat, man.
49
Oh!
50
Ow.
51
You're proud of me because I'm smart.
52
I'm sorry, Mr. Campbell.
53
It's all right.
54
He didn't realize he was bugging you.
55
What did I tell you about hugging the customers?
56
Now, you get back to work, young man.
57
You have a nice day, Mr. Campbell.
58
You too, Dexter.
59
Oh, you too, Dixie.
60
I'm sorry about the hug.
61
Like I said.
62
Hey, produce.
63
I'm impressed.
64
Frank?
65
Hi, Susan.
66
Is Milt here? Is everything okay?
67
Yeah, it's good.
68
I just need to talk to him.
69
Yeah, come in.
70
Come in.
71
You doing all right?
72
Yeah, nice to see you.
73
You too.
74
Uh, Mills.
75
Hey buddy, what's up?
76
What's up, man?
77
What's up?
78
You all right?
79
Yeah, what's going on?
80
Okay, um, there's no easy way to ask you this, so.
81
Okay.
82
I need to borrow some money for a hotel room.
83
It's not long, I'll pay you back.
84
What happened?
85
I got evicted.
86
Hadn't paid in a while, so I kinda had it coming.
87
Well, you're not getting in any hotel, all right?
88
You stay here, all right?
89
You got plenty of room.
90
You're like a family.
91
Yeah, I...
92
No, no, no, no. Stay here.
93
We got plenty of room.
94
So I got some towels if you want to take a shower and help yourself to anything in the kitchen.
95
Thank you.
96
You're welcome.
97
Oh, cold.
98
Hang on.
99
What's going on?
100
Just slow down.
101
What the hell are you doing?
102
I'm cold.
103
Come on, take that jacket off, get back in bed.
104
You know how many girls want to get with me right now?
105
Here I am, I'm trying to be faithful to you.
106
I just wanted to be special for my first time.
107
Wait, so you're a virgin?
108
Yeah.
109
But you said that you'd been...
110
I know.
111
I lied.
112
I just wanted you to like me, so I said it.
113
This is awesome, you know that?
114
Listen, I got some wine out of my Jeep.
115
Okay, it's in a box, so you don't need an opener or anything.
116
That's special, right?
117
You don't get it.
118
No, you don't get it, Katie.
119
You can't just tease a guy like this.
120
I said just lay back down.
121
Katie?
122
Hey, Katie.
123
Hey, Katie.
124
Hey, Katie Bear.
125
I just want to come say goodnight.
126
What?
127
Hey.
128
What are you doing with your jacket on and your bed, huh?
129
Hey, what's wrong?
130
Is there something I could do to help?
131
Please get out.
132
Okay.
133
Hey, Mr. Campbell, how you doing?
134
Where's the shopping cart?
135
I don't know.
136
I'm not here to shop.
137
I guess I just, uh...
138
I guess I just came to talk. To me?
139
Yeah, to you.
140
I guess I could use some of that magical happiness that you always seem to have. So what's your secret?
141
It's not a secret, but the Kimball.
142
You're doing something right.
143
You're doing a heck of a lot better than I'm doing.
144
Do you think that I'm smart enough to do anything?
145
Anything in the whole bad world?
146
Look.
147
Where are we going?
148
All right.
149
Where are we going, buddy?
150
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
151
Look, I'm not authorized personnel.
152
I can't go back, but...
153
Please, come up.
154
Please.
155
Come on.
156
All right.
157
Come on.
158
What are we doing?
159
What is this?
160
I'm not small enough to be the employee of the month.
161
Oh, shoot.
162
Yeah, you are.
163
Really?
164
Let me ask you a question.
165
Do you think that Colt can name every fruit number on every piece of fruit in the store?
166
But I can name all the vegetables, too.
167
Yeah, exactly.
168
That's my point.
169
He can't do that.
170
Hey, produce.
171
Sometimes...
172
Well, sometimes life.. is not fair, you know?
173
And sometimes we don't get what we want.
174
What do you do for work?
175
Well...
176
I've done a...
177
I don't know, done a few things.
178
Here and there.
179
I used to play baseball.
180
Wow!
181
Really, you told me how?
182
Well, you know what, I haven't played baseball in a long, long time, produce.
183
I've always wanted to play baseball.
184
You really want to learn how to play?
185
Yeah!
186
Okay.

練習のヒント

この対話を練習するためには、shadowing siteを利用して音声に合わせて声に出すことをお勧めします。特に、対話のスピードは自然で、日常会話に似ていますので、英語スピーキング練習に最適です。また、相手の感情やトーンを観察しながら声に出すことで、shadowspeakの効果を得られます。

聞き取ったフレーズを何度も繰り返し、自分の発音を録音することで、英語シャドーイングの練習にも役立ちます。特に感情的な表現を大切にし、言葉のリズムやイントネーションを意識することが大事です。さらに、友達や家族に対話を演じてもらい、実際の会話の中で使うことを想定して練習するのも効果的です。こうした実践を通じて、より流暢な英会話ができるようになるでしょう。

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。
