1
You know, learning English makes swimming class less confusing.
2
SBS acknowledges the traditional custodians of country and their connections and continuous care for the skies,
3
lands and waterways throughout Australia.
4
You stand outside the pool, watching kids laugh and run past.
5
The bright blue pool looks big and a little scary.
6
You really want to swim.
7
But what if you don't understand the instructor?
8
You worry that your English isn't strong enough to follow every word.
9
I'm Josipa and my English isn't perfect.
10
But that's okay, I'm learning all the time.
11
I can do this, you tell yourself.
12
Before your first swimming lesson,
13
you've practiced some key words and phrases to help you feel ready and confident enough to join in.
14
Your heart beats faster, but excitement wins over fear.
15
Today you step closer to the water.
16
Today you know how to listen and how to speak during a swimming lesson.
17
Now, close your eyes and imagine yourself in the water.
18
Alan is the instructor, teaching Claire how to swim.
19
Let's start in the shallow end.
20
Try to do a back float.
21
I'll try, but I'm a bit scared.
22
Okay, I think I'm floating.
23
Fantastic.
24
OK, now let's jump in the deep end.
25
Well, done.
26
I'm tired already.
27
See?
28
Keep with it.
29
Eventually you'll be swimming freestyle.
30
Now just tread water to rest.
31
Claire worked hard to keep her head above water in her swimming today.
32
You can also say someone is keeping their head above water when they are managing, even if it's tough.
33
Actually, there is even a podcast with the same name, Head Above Water, where comedians and good mates,
34
Sashi and Surin, dive into what Australians love about water.
35
One of them loves swimming, the other doesn't even like getting wet.
36
I'll share a preview with you later in the episode.
37
Now, let's go through Alan and Claire's dialogue together so you can keep your head above water while learning new phrases.
38
Alan first said...
39
Let's start in the shallow end.
40
Try to do a back float.
41
Let's start in the shallow end.
42
The shallow end is the part of the pool where the water is not very deep.
43
If you don't know how to swim, that's exactly where you want to be.
44
Alan also asked Claire.
45
Try to do a back float.
46
Here Alan is asking Claire to lie on her back in the water and float without sinking.
47
A back float is when you lie on your back in the water.
48
Your face stays above the water.
49
Your body is relaxed.
50
Your arms and legs are spread out a little so you can stay on the surface.
51
That's what we call a back float.
52
You can also do a front float.
53
That is the opposite of a back float.
54
You lie on your stomach in the water.
55
You stretch your arms forward and keep your face in the water while you float.
56
When I do a front float, I hold my breath or blow bubbles to stay relaxed.
57
Clare then said, I'll try, but I'm a bit scared.
58
Okay, I think I'm floating.
59
We already heard that floating means staying on the surface of the water without sinking.
60
For example, you can say, I'm floating on my back.
61
Here, floating is a verb.
62
The word float can also be used as a verb.
63
I can float without moving my arms or legs.
64
But when we say afloat, it's a noun. For example.
65
I did afloat for a few seconds.
66
Next, Alan said...
67
Fantastic!
68
OK, now let's jump in the deep end.
69
The deep end is the part of the pool where you usually can't touch the bottom.
70
It's best for people who can swim well.
71
Beginners often start in the shallow end to practice floating, kicking and swimming before moving to the deep end.
72
At the end of the dialogue, Alan said...
73
See?
74
Keep with it.
75
Eventually you'll be swimming freestyle.
76
Now just tread water to rest.
77
Swimming freestyle.
78
Freestyle is a swimming style or we can say stroke.
79
Actually the word stroke also means one complete movement of your arms while you are swimming.
80
We can also use it to talk about different ways of moving in the water or different styles of swimming like freestyle.
81
So freestyle is a swimming style or stroke where you lie on your stomach
82
and move your arms forward one after the other while you kick your legs.
83
It's the fastest stroke or swimming style.
84
If that sounds like your style, you could say...
85
I mainly swim freestyle.
86
There are many different strokes of swimming.
87
Perhaps you have seen them when watching the Olympics.
88
Have you heard of the backstroke?
89
I usually swim backstroke.
90
Or the breaststroke?
91
I want to practice breaststroke.
92
There's also the butterfly stroke.
93
I try butterfly sometimes, but it's really challenging.
94
At the end of our dialogue, Alan also said...
95
Now, just tread water to rest.
96
To tread water means to stay in one place in the water without sinking.
97
You move your arms in small circles and kick your legs gently to keep floating.
98
When I feel tired in the water, I tread water and take a break.
99
Now that you have learned some key phrases and vocabulary, let's listen to Alan and Claire's dialogue one more time.
100
After that, we can test the waters ourselves.
101
By the way, to test the waters means to slowly and carefully try out something new before fully committing.
102
Just like when we think the water in the pool might be very cold, so we test it out with one foot before jumping in.
103
But you can use this expression to test the waters in many different situations.
104
For example, before starting a new hobby, I like to test the waters by watching tutorials online.
105
Maybe your new hobby could be listening to our bonus episodes,
106
designed so you can practice speaking by repeating after Alan and Claire.
107
Not sure yet?
108
Why don't you test the waters first?
109
I'll give you a chance to practice soon.
110
But first, let's hear the dialogue.
111
Let's start in the shallow end.
112
Try to do a backflow.
113
I'll try, but I'm a bit scared.
114
OK, I think I'm floating.
115
Fantastic.
116
OK, now let's jump in the deep end.
117
Well, done.
118
I'm tired already.
119
See?
120
Keep with it.
121
Eventually, you'll be swimming freestyle.
122
Now just tread water to rest.
123
It's time to practice.
124
See if you remember the meaning before hearing the answer.
125
What does it mean to keep your head above the water?
126
To keep your head above water means to manage things, even when it's tough.
127
What does it mean to test the waters?
128
To test the waters means to try something new carefully before fully committing.
129
Now it's your time to speak.
130
Just repeat after Alan and Claire.
131
Let's start in the shallow end.
132
I did a float for a few seconds.
133
I mainly swim freestyle.
134
I usually swim backstroke.
135
Before I go, I'd like you to check out a podcast called head above water.
136
It answered a lot of my questions about Australian waters, whether it's lakes, rock fishing, or even dealing with a fear of swimming.
137
We lost 323 people to drowning incidents in Australia,
138
and a big percentage of those people who lost their lives were from multicultural backgrounds.
139
Australia is surrounded by water.
140
Wherever you look in this country, there's a new place to explore.
141
There's so much coastline.
142
There's rivers and waterfalls.
143
It can be exhilarating, breathtaking.
144
Or sometimes, to be honest, a little bit scary.
145
What do you find scary, Saren?
146
Well, the most terrifying thing in the world to me is I go to the beach
147
and I end up on Bondi Rescue, wearing cargo pants.
148
What about you, Sashi?
149
I always worry as soon as I can't feel the ground beneath my toes when I'm swimming.
150
Always makes me panic.
151
Some of the things Aussies take for granted about water culture have made us laugh and scratch our heads.
152
I could not get over the shark siren on Cottesloe Beach.
153
Yeah, or those tiny little bathers.
154
What do they call them?
155
Budgie smugglers?
156
I'm Sashi Pereira, a second generation Sri Lankan Australian comedian, writer, and recovering lawyer.
157
And I'm Saran Jiamana.
158
I'm also Sri Lankan Australian and I have never learnt to swim.
159
Like, I'm a grown man.
160
I'm 38 years old.
161
I've got a bank account and a job.
162
I know how to change a tyre, but I don't know how to swim.
163
Don't worry, Saren.
164
I'm going to help you and other new Australians to learn how to be more comfortable in and around the water.
165
You can find the Head Above Water series as part of the Australia Explained podcast from SBS Audio.

170

- 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, swim, freestyle, shallow 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
