1
Yeah.
2
This is crazy, Ben.
3
Two deaths are not going to fit in here.
4
I promise.
5
I'll stay out of your way.
6
That's impossible because now I don't have room for.
7
Hi.
8
This is good, right?
9
I like this arrangement.
10
Becky, I want you to let Ben give you a hand, OK?
11
And CC him on all my emails.
12
Did we get yesterday's numbers?
13
Uh, yes, we did.
14
I saw them here.
15
Here you go.
16
Thanks.
17
And I need to go over the data on customer purchase patterns.
18
Let Ben take a look at that too.
19
Actually, let Ben take a look at that first.
20
Okay.
21
Don't worry, Becky.
22
Backup's good.
23
Ping me when Cameron gets in.
24
Becky?
25
I've been here nine months, Ben, and she never asked me to take a look at anything for her ever, okay?
26
I hear you.
27
That's frustrating.
28
I mean, totally.
29
I graduated from Penn.
30
I have a business degree, but I never seem to do anything right around here, and you're, like, 50 years older than me, and you're deaf.
31
I happen to think you do a lot of things right.
32
You do so much.
33
Oh.
34
I know.
35
I know that.
36
Mm-hmm.
37
But she doesn't.
38
I mean, I bust my ass for her 14 hours a day, and she never notices.
39
Oh, oh, my God.
40
I hate girls who cry at work.
41
How about if you, just as an experiment, try letting me help you?
42
A lot of your stress is going to be lifted once you're out from under this mountain of work.
43
And maybe you should consider leaving here at a normal hour once in a while.
44
See your friends.
45
Have a little fun.
46
Mm-hmm.
47
I can offer my assistance in this area.
48
I would love to, actually.
49
I just don't want her to think that I can't do my job and I need an intern to help me.
50
Okay, you're not gonna want to hear this, but I heard women who sleep less than seven hours a
51
night gain 38% more weight than women who sleep more than seven hours a night.
52
What?
53
I leave here at 11, I get back at 7, I sleep, like, five hours a night, and now I'm gonna get back?
54
Let's get through this stuff.
55
Let's do it together.
56
Let's clean slate it.
57
Let's just do it.
58
Oh, very nice, St. Louis.
59
Oh, a sway jacket in D.C.
60
I'm so happy.
61
Beautiful Miami.
62
Thank you.
63
Oh, look at Chicago.
64
She put the same boots in her cart as the woman from Houston.
65
Okay, let's see what she does at checkout.
66
She's not buying them either.
67
Okay, maybe check the delivery cost on those boots?
68
Now talk.
69
Hey.
70
Hi.
71
I took a look at the data purchase patterns.
72
Should I come back?
73
No, no, come on in.
74
That was fast.
75
Well, I enlisted Becky's help.
76
It seems the most expensive place you're advertising is actually bringing in the customers who are spending the least,
77
and the channels you're least investing in are adding enormous value in segments that currently appear to have low value, but actually have the highest spending potential.
78
That's what I could tell so far.
79
Whoa, Ben, can you, like, deal with that for me?
80
Maybe come up with a better plan?
81
I mean, if you have the time.
82
Happy to.
83
The man spent 40 years in business.
84
Yeah, no, I get it.
85
And, Jules, Becky was a huge help in this.
86
You know she has a business degree from Penn?
87
I know.
88
I mean, I forgot, but I know.
89
I'll say something to her.
90
That would be very nice.
91
Thank you.

このレッスンで学べること

このビデオの会話は、職場での日常的なやり取りを描いたもので、英語のスピーキング練習に最適です。ベッキーとベンのやり取りから、職場でのストレスや協力の重要性、さらには自然な口語表現を学べます。特に「shadowing（シャドーイング）」を使って、リズムやイントネーションを磨くことができます。英語シャドーイングの初心者でも、短いフレーズから始めて徐々に慣れていきましょう！

重要な語彙とフレーズ

  • CC him on all my emails：すべてのメールに彼をCCする（職場でよく使われる表現）
  • bust my ass：必死に努力する（くだけた表現で、ストレスを表す時に使われます）
  • ping me：私に連絡する（簡単な言い方で、メールやメッセージでよく使われます）
  • backup's good：バックアップは大丈夫だよ（安心を与える表現）
  • normal hour：通常の時間（退社時間を指す場合が多い）

シャドーイングの練習コツ

このビデオの会話は、日常的なスピードで進行しているので、shadowspeak（シャドースピーク）の練習に最適です。まずは短いフレーズから始めて、「I'll stay out of your way.」や「Did we get yesterday's numbers?」などを繰り返し聞き、すぐに真似して発音してみましょう。イントネーションにも注意して、ベッキーのストレスやベンの優しさを表す調子を再現してみます。

英語スピーキング練習のために、shadowing siteを利用するのもいいですが、このビデオを使って自分で練習するのも効果的です。1文ずつ止めて、自分の声を録音してみて、原音と比べてみましょう。少しずつリズムが合ってきたら、2文、3文と繋げていきます。継続することが大事で、毎日5分でも練習すれば、すぐに成果が見られますよ！

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。
