It threw me off for a second.
97
And I'm actually 29.
98
29?
99
Wow.
100
I was really off.
101
You were right.
102
I actually am Asian, which no one guesses.

111
I don't think you would tower over me.
112
No, 5'1".
113
As we get older, things get harder, right?
114
I'm just having to come to face with the fact that I think I'm a little sensitive.
115
I think you're too hard on yourself.
116
I think you just feel things and that's good.
117
Yeah.
118
You're like, I'm sensitive.
119
You're just, you're a person with feelings. For sure. For sure.
120
I gotta ask you, what's like the toughest challenge that I'm like? getting dressed, getting fed.
121
No, so I'm actually not confined to the chair.
122
I can do a little bit of walking, but I walked a lot as a kid, and I only started using the wheelchair when I was in high school.
123
But I grew up with my parents being fearful of my future, you know?
124
Like, I don't know how she's gonna make it in the world.
125
And they would say things to me like, well, we wanna get a house that we can have like an apartment that you can live in, like a basement apartment.
126
I'm like, I don't need to live with you.
127
I can do this on my own.
128
It was nice to meet you, Oshie.
129
Yeah, it was nice to meet you too.
130
Carolyn, it was really nice meeting you.
131
I honestly had a great experience just talking to you.

133
Yeah.
134
That's just awesome.
135
It was fun.

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。
