Colin's English for Life.

Listening.

Example I've got two younger sisters.

One I have two brothers and one sister, and they're all younger than me.

Two I've got two sisters.

I'm the youngest.

I have a twin sister and an older brother and sister who are also twins.

I have one brother and one sister, and there's quite a big age gap.

My brother's 14 years older than me, and my sister's 10 years older than me.

I've got one sister, younger sister, yes, so just one, there's just two of us, me and my sister.

My family are quite spread out as we're all grown up and left home now, but I live quite close to my brother, he lives in London as well,

and my older sister, she lives in Salisbury, so the three of us are quite close

but my twin sister lives in durham

so she's several hours away on the train

so i don't see her very much at the moment um

but uh yeah we try and meet up when we can especially christmas

and easter so holiday times really

and i mean we still like to play sport together occasionally

when we meet up we'll play tennis or or squash and hockey in particular really.

This summer, the four of us are meeting up for a hockey tournament in Boscombe.

Yeah, we try and make excuses to meet up still.

My mum lives in the north of England and I live in London now so I don't see her very often.

My dad, he lives the furthest away, he lives in India and I see him once a year.

I've got, yeah, I said I have two sisters.

So my older sister, she lives in the north as well.

She lives quite near my mum and she has two children.

She's quite funny.

She makes me laugh and she's really clever and she works very hard.

We get on really well.

She's training to be a teacher at the moment.

She's going to be a religious education teacher.

She works at a school quite close to her house.

I suppose in terms of personality we're quite similar because we both like teaching and I used to be a teacher.

She also, she's quite talkative like me.

I think I talk the most, though.

And she's very interested in languages.

I studied Spanish at university and she speaks Italian.

1. I usually get up at about 8 o 'clock.

2. I get up in the morning at 6 .30.

3. I normally get up at 6 .45 in the morning.

4. I usually wake up about 7 .15 and get up about 7 .30.

5. Sometimes I have to work at night.

When I get up at night, I get up at about 5 o 'clock in the evening.

Usually, the first thing I would do is put the kettle on to make a cup of coffee, and then I would jump in the shower, have a shave.

Sometimes I eat breakfast, but if I'm running late, which is usually the case, I would skip breakfast and then just head out towards the train station.

It takes about 45 minutes to get to work, and then I check my email and get started for the day.

I normally get up at 6 .45 in the morning.

I then have my breakfast and get dressed and leave for work.

I catch the train

and I normally get to work at about 8 .30 where I work in a clinic and also in a hospital.

I come home from work at about 4 .30

and I get back and I cook my dinner

and maybe go out for a walk or watch some TV and I go to bed at about 11.

I'm a journalist on a morning TV programme, so sometimes I have to work at night.

When I get up at night, I get up at about five o 'clock in the evening and I make my dinner

and then I watch some TV and I have a shower and I go to work.

And I work until nine o 'clock the next morning, so I work all through the night.

And then I come home, I have a bit of breakfast and I go back to bed.

One.

I was brought up in the countryside, so we had a really big garden.

And one summer, my brothers and sisters and I built a fantastic treehouse.

When I was five years old, I learned to ride a bike, and my dad every weekend would take me around the block on it.

One of the things I remember from my childhood was

when we had our pocket money and then myself

and my brother would go to the sweet shop

and we would spend our 50 pence each and we would be able to get bags and bags of sweets.

The house I grew up in was on the same street as the library.

So after school and at the weekends, I used to spend all my time reading in the library.

During my childhood, I spent every weekend at the beach because my grandparents lived there.

I grew up in the countryside, in kind of the middle of North Carolina, which is on the east coast of the United States.

And yeah, it was a great life actually, growing up in the countryside.

When I was a kid, I spent most of my time outside in the woods, camping, hiking, hunting, various things, fishing.

I think I had my first, you know, I had my own fishing gear

and my own kind of pellet gun and all my own camping gear probably by the age of 10.

And we were, it was our escape as children to get away from our parents for the weekend.

And we would go camping in the woods all weekend and everyone was perfectly okay with that.

That's normal where I come from.

And I think your parents are quite happy to see you off for the weekend.

And as a child, it's brilliant to have your independence, even if it is in the middle of the woods.

But yeah, we had a lot of interesting wildlife there.

So I spent most of my childhood trying to catch snakes and crayfish and various creatures that live in the woods.

So it was a colorful childhood.

Quite a contrast, I think, to people who live in the city um for me it's even today it's interesting

when I think of people who put

so much effort into making a camping trip for the weekend

or something and I know

that just as a as a 12 year old boy I could pack a backpack

and and survive all weekend in the woods on very little um

so yeah it was a very different kind of life than I think most people are used to

but uh it was a healthy lifestyle and uh yeah I hope

that if I have kids one day that they'll have the same opportunity I grew up in Hong Kong.

It's a big city, Hong Kong, and I've always liked cities.

We lived in a little house, a bungalow, so I had no upstairs and just a downstairs.

And it was on the edge of the city and had a little garden, which is quite unusual for Hong Kong because most of Hong Kong is lots of big flats.

I really loved it.

The weather was just beautiful.

So because it was warm, you were outside most of the year just playing in the garden and things.

We had lots of friends there, and I'm from a big family.

100

I'm one of six children.

101

So there were always children to play with, and we were always outside swinging on swings or playing in the garden.

102

I liked going into the city too.

103

Hong Kong's got so many wonderful markets and that's where we used to do all our shopping for food or clothes,

104

just to walk around the markets and look at all the vegetables and choose different fish and things for dinner.

105

It was a lovely life.

106

I really enjoyed it.

107

I got my first job in London about five years ago and that was probably the biggest life -changing job so far.

108

My life changed greatly when I had children,

109

so I have now one son who is eight years old and one daughter who is four years old.

110

At the moment, I'm single, but my life is going to change very soon because I am getting married in the next few months.

111

I recently moved out of my parents' house to the city, so it was a big change,

112

but it's made me much more independent.

113

I used to live in New York, but two years ago I moved to England, to London.

114

So that was a major life change, but for the better.

115

Well, before I had children, my work was everything to me.

116

I loved what I did, and through every spare moment I had into my work, really

117

when I had the children although my work was still very important to me

118

and I was traveling a lot

119

and still was furthering my career I think my priorities changed

120

and I started to see things in a different way and as they've grown up it's been difficult to juggle

121

and balance out work and home life and where I used to be perhaps more concerned with

122

the hours that I was spending in the office and all that kind of thing.

123

I think now I try to put things in balance

124

and not take things too seriously and not to let things just get out of perspective.

125

About five or six years ago, I was a lawyer.

126

I found the job a lot of hard work

127

and it was very stressful

128

and it took up a lot of my time over the

129

weekends as well as late evening hours during the week

130

and I wanted to make a change so I did a course in painting and I did a course in writing

131

and I started to enjoy it and I started to write books part -time

132

while I was working in law so I'd find a time on a Saturday

133

or something and then I found I enjoyed it more

134

and more and in the end I decided to leave law

135

and I went back to university and started an art degree

136

and started writing more and more and now I write books for children

137

and I'm really pleased

138

that I made the change I enjoy the work a lot

139

more it's a lot more creative I'm my own boss and I work in the way that I like working.

140

So for me, it's been a really successful change.

141

Yeah, friends are very important to me.

142

I've had different friends as I've grown up.

143

So I started off with my primary school and secondary school friends

144

that I don't see as often now as I do my current friends from uni.

145

They're so important to me.

146

It just, it would be a very lonely, lonely world if you didn't have someone outside of your family to communicate with.

147

I have one sort of best, best friend that I've had since I was in primary school, actually.

148

We went through a stage, we were really close growing up, we went to secondary school together.

149

And then when we went to uni, we didn't talk very much at all.

150

And I think it was about four years that we were still we were still close and we talk now and then.

151

But it was difficult because we were sort of located in opposite ends of the country.

152

So that was quite a hard time.

153

When you go to uni, you meet a lot of people and people kind of come and go in your lives.

154

But there are always certain people that stay.

155

Jeremy.

156

So I'm an expatriate here.

157

So I've got a huge network of friends all over the world.

158

I have friends from America, from California, who are my great friends, and I'll always keep in touch with them, but I just talk to them really online nowadays.

159

Then I have my friends who live in London, and they're guys I see on the weekend, really.

160

But I also have friends who I live with, who are my housemates, who I didn't know them before I moved in with them, But they're all international as well,

161

so they're from France and Spain and Poland.

162

Without friends, I think I'd go crazy.

163

I just wouldn't know what to do with myself or my time.

164

So it's good to have people you can relate to and catch up with, express your views.

165

My friends are very important to me.

166

Some of my friends live quite far away from me now, even in different countries.

167

So I don't see them very often but when we do see each other it's like no time has passed.

168

I feel very lucky to have such a wonderful group of girlfriends.

169

You know, on the weekends we enjoy hanging out at the beach and getting together for barbecues.

170

I try to spend time with friends because I think it's important to keep in contact, but I'm often busy at work.

171

So I use social media like Facebook and Twitter.

172

Modern technology is really good for that, I think.

173

I Skype and tweet a lot, really.

174

I actually have an old best friend who lives a long way away,

175

but I Skype him at least twice a week.

176

The weirdest thing about moving to London was leaving my friends behind.

177

So I try and keep in touch with them as much as possible, even to the fact that they visit quite a lot.

178

They come and use my couch and I use their couch whenever.

179

I text them once in a while.

180

It's not too expensive to call them, but I think it's nicer.

181

Whenever I land in Dublin, I basically just drop into my friends, just surprise them.

182

Maybe 9 o 'clock in the morning, maybe 7 o 'clock in the morning.

183

But it's just nice to catch up with people without Facebook sometimes.

184

Because with Facebook, you kind of know everything about them, but you don't know anything.

185

So I spend a lot of time with them.

186

I normally just go to some gigs,

187

just eat a lot of food, hang out, that's it.

188

Yeah, since I moved to London, I've found a lot of international friends as well.

189

So I'm friends with a lot of Spanish people, a lot of French, Spanish, Italian, American,

190

like less Irish people than I've ever been surrounded with before

191

and I mean to be honest with with modern technology you spend a lot of time with your iPhone

192

and WhatsApp and Twitter and Facebook and emails and basically it's a lot easier to keep in contact with people

193

okay

194

so Hull what do you think like the ingredients for a

195

really good friendship like are um I think honesty is really

196

important what do you think yeah I think that's true

197

because I'm just thinking there's a lot of times before I

198

leave the house where I'll go up to your room just to get your opinion on what I'm wearing

199

because I know especially

200

if it's a special occasion then you'll definitely be honest with me yeah even even

201

if I don't want to hear it

202

yeah but I wouldn't want you to go out of the house in something

203

that I didn't think you'd be comfortable in and yeah exactly no

204

and that's what's really good about having such a close friend it's

205

because you can be honest with me

206

and I won't begrudge you for it yeah

207

so I'm the same as well I know that I can trust you and I can trust your opinion

208

and I think that's really important yeah

209

and I think that's often why I'll listen to your advice as well

210

because you know me really well it's more difficult to trust them

211

because they don't know me as well so i think that's something

212

that really comes with time yeah yeah i i agree

213

and i think being able to give advice and

214

and listen as well at the same time is important yeah

215

you're a really listener i think i i go to you for advice a lot

216

because i know i can trust you and

217

and hopefully i can give you useful advice as well yeah you do so i think that's really important

218

um what else um well i think something that's particular

219

to us is because we live together it's sort of important we we make time for each other

220

but we also make time for ourselves

221

because it's it can be very I suppose like tempting to always go

222

and like knock on your door as soon as I get in

223

but sometimes I know that you'll just want time just to read a book

224

or to speak to someone on the phone and I think

225

because we've lived together now for quite a long time then we're very good at judging

226

when you might want your own space and

227

when you might want to spend time with friends and

228

so I think that's something

229

that we're pretty good at now yeah I agree I think that's true I think it's easy to try

230

and do everything together and if I'm seeing another friend I would love to invite you along,

231

but I know it is important not to be on top of each other all the time.

232

Yeah, not to always be a pair.

233

Yeah, I think that's, I think that's a really good, a good point.

234

One.

235

I live in an apartment with my husband.

236

It's just us, no pets, no other family, just us.

237

Two.

238

I live with my wife, and our two children, and our three chickens.

239

So there's three people in my flat.

240

There's me, my husband, and my three -year -old son.

241

I live in a house with my partner and my two children.

242

I share a house with three other people.

243

My flatmates are two French girls and a girl from England.

244

I live in a really nice terrace house with two other girls.

245

I find the biggest challenge in share living would probably be the distribution of chores,

246

cleaning up the kitchen, doing the cleaning generally, the washing machine, hanging your washing out.

247

I think when you're living with people you don't know or you've just met, you have different backgrounds, different cultures,

248

I think the best way to deal with that is communication.

249

The best points about living with other people would be making new friends, just having people around when you just want to hang out, have a chat,

250

someone to come home to

251

and yeah I think the friendship aspect of it they have

252

friends you have friends it kind of brings two big circles together.

253

I do the cooking and he does the washing up afterwards

254

but when it comes to cleaning we disagree on how to clean the house.

255

When we were living together for two years I realised

256

that he'd only cleaned the bathroom once and I said it wasn't acceptable

257

so I made us get a cleaner and now we don't argue about the cleaning anymore.

258

i like living in manchester because it's a small city

259

and you can walk everywhere there's lots of stuff to do

260

and there are lots of art exhibitions

261

and lots of things on at the cinema the worst thing

262

about manchester is there's very little green space there aren't very many parks near where i live

263

and if i want to go and sit in the sunshine i have to get on the train

264

yeah london is just incredible i mean the weather's not

265

that great um the weather's awful but the people are fantastic and there's always something happening.

266

I think that what I like most about living in town, living in the city, is the ability to explore things very easily.

267

I like going to new coffee shops and new restaurants and it's easy to meet my friends and to meet new people.

268

I think one of the things I dislike most about living in town is the noise

269

and I don't like the cost of life in the city and also it's very busy.

270

Living in a big city there's lots to do on any one day

271

so maybe on a typical day off I would get up

272

and I would go to the corner shop to buy my breakfast

273

because I don't need to plan ahead and then I would

274

when I've had my breakfast I could go to my local part of town

275

and go to the market there which is a really vibrant market with lots of clothes and kitchenware and

276

fresh fish and everything there, mobile phones, anything you could want.

277

I could wander around there.

278

Then in the afternoon, I might meet some friends for lunch, and then I might go to a museum,

279

or I might have a wander in one of the beautiful parks that London has.

280

That's a real positive of London, it has some beautiful parks.

281

One When I think of the countryside I think of animals, sheep and cows.

282

Two When I think of the countryside, I think of beautiful rivers and peace and quiet.

283

Three When I think of the countryside, I think of there's no cars and no pollution.

284

I think about horses in a field because that's what I saw from my window when I was growing up.

285

I think of long country lanes with flowers and wildlife.

286

I'm from the country originally and often go back to my hometown in the New Forest.

287

I think what I like about it is that it's quieter and the air is really clean.

288

there are beautiful views and I live near the coast

289

so I really like being able to go to the sea and see a horizon.

290

The people are friendly there's less to do in the evenings but more to do during the day.

291

I like outdoor activities like hiking and horse riding

292

so it's the ideal place to go and going home feels like going on holiday sometimes.

293

I'm from a seaside town called Tynmouth in Devon.

294

I was born in Tynmouth, went to school, grew up there, lived there for 18 years.

295

Tynmouth is a typically English seaside town.

296

So you have the beach, you have a river, you have the countryside.

297

It's maybe 20 ,000 people um and it's a great place to grow up

298

but when you grow up you want to leave

299

so uh it's um it's got a slow rhythm

300

and it it comes alive in summer a bit more

301

because you get people that come on holiday they stay in uh hotels

302

and guest houses and um and the fair comes to town

303

and there's the there's the fiesta in the harbour

304

but most of the time you know what life is like in

305

that in Tynmouth but it's very pretty and I think

306

when you go back to visit now when you're older you appreciate just how pretty it is and what a nice town.

307

I think when you live in a city you really miss the um you miss nature um

308

when I was a child you you know I took it for granted

309

that when I woke up every morning you'd see the sea

310

and you'd see trees and you'd see birds well you'd hear birds um

311

but you don't see that every day when you live in London um

312

when you live in the city um

313

but it makes you appreciate it more I mean yes there are parks yes there are lots of trees in London.

314

But when you grow up in the countryside or on the coast, you're surrounded by it more.

315

So, yeah, I think that's what I miss.

316

I lived in Japan for a year as part of my university degree.

317

I was born in London but

318

when I was six years old my parents moved to Hong Kong and so from the age of six to sixteen,

319

so for ten years I lived in Hong Kong.

320

I lived and worked in Argentina for six months just before I went to university.

321

I moved to Germany when I was about two years old with my family and I lived there until

322

I was about seven when I was sent to boarding school in the UK.

323

I was born in Sydney and then moved to London about five years ago now.

324

When I was 17 years old, I left New Zealand and went to Austria,

325

which is about a 36 -hour flight away.

326

And I lived there with a family for one year

327

and I went to school there and this has changed my life completely

328

because I learned to speak another language and I got to know another culture

329

and I think this has changed what has happened in my life

330

and my life would have been very different if I didn't go away to Austria when I was 17.

331

I lived with a family with a mum and a dad

332

and I had a host brother and sister who were eight

333

and ten years old when I was there and I lived in a very small village with only 620 people

334

so it was very different to what I was used to in Wellington

335

and the people in the village were very friendly

336

and welcoming there were lots of festivals on all the time

337

and i didn't get very homesick because everybody was so warm and friendly

338

a lot of british students between finishing what they call their a levels

339

and moving to university do something called a gap year where they often work to earn enough money

340

and then sometimes they go traveling.

341

So for my gap year I went to Japan

342

and I stayed with a Japanese family who are friends of friends

343

and I lived with them and I knew that

344

when I was out there I would be able to teach English

345

and so I'd be able to earn enough money to survive.

346

So before I went out I worked at a company to earn enough money to pay for the flight

347

and then when once I was out there I was able to earn money teaching English

348

and it for me it was the first time I've been

349

away from my family for a long period of time so I was 18 and I

350

was away for a whole year

351

and I was living with a Japanese family who were very different from my family

352

and it really opened my eyes to the differences between Japanese culture and also made me look at English culture.

353

It allowed me to look in depth into Japanese culture

354

and also English culture and made me think about who I am and my identity and why I do things.

355

And it really also made me appreciate my family

356

because I found the family that I lived with quite a little bit difficult.

357

They were very, very strict and they didn't allow their children.

358

They had two children of their own, a boy and a girl, and they didn't allow them much freedom

359

or independence whereas my parents allowed my sister and I much more independence

360

and I think overall I think that's a good thing and

361

so it made me appreciate my family and family life a lot more.

362

One.

363

Excuse me, is the Apollo Theatre around here?

364

Two.

365

Excuse me, where's the closest movie theater here?

366

367

Three Hey, excuse me, do you know where the hospital is?

368

Four Excuse me, I'm meeting a friend at the hotel.

369

370

Five Excuse me, I'm trying to get to the sports grounds.

371

How do I get there?

372

One Excuse me, is the Apollo Theatre around here?

373

Yeah, it is.

374

It's, if you carry on north up this road, about 700 metres, and then it's on the left -hand corner when you reach the T -junction.

375

Okay, great.

376

Thank you very much.

377

Anytime.

378

Two Excuse me, where's the closest movie theatre here?

379

Oh, you mean the cinema?

380

Yes, yes.

381

Right, you go up this road here, past the park, take the first left,

382

then you're right, take the first right, and it's on the left, and it's called Riverside Studios.

383

Perfect, thank you very much.

384

You're welcome.

385

Hey, excuse me, do you know where the hospital is?

386

Oh, yeah, sure.

387

You just go straight down this road, walk for about five minutes, and then it's on the right.

388

It's a really big, great building.

389

You can't miss it.

390

Okay, great.

391

Thank you very much.

392

You're welcome.

393

Excuse me, I'm meeting a friend at the hotel.

394

Which way is it from here?

395

Okay, if you walk to the end of this road and take a right, and it'll be on your left.

396

You need to find a road called Shortlands.

397

Okay, perfect.

398

Thank you very much.

399

No problem.

400

Excuse me, I'm trying to get to the sports grounds.

401

How do I get there?

402

Okay, quite a bit distance.

403

You're going to have to head back to the bus station and possibly get a bus directly from there over the bridge.

404

Okay.

405

And then it will be on your right -hand side.

406

Walk for about five minutes.

407

2 Take the first right 3 Over the bridge 4

408

Pass the park 5 It's on the left -hand corner 6 Go straight down this road

409

7. T -Junction.

410

8. Carry on north up this road.

411

Hello?

412

Hey, how you doing?

413

Sean, hi.

414

Have you arrived?

415

I have, I have.

416

I just got through customs passport control.

417

I'm just standing here in the middle of the airport, just need some directions to your house.

418

Fantastic, fantastic.

419

It's really easy to get to my place.

420

So if you've come out of customs and you've got your bag and everything, if you head for the tube stop,

421

you'll see signs for the underground and it'll take you down to Heathrow tube stop, down to the Piccadilly line.

422

Okay.

423

Can you see them just now?

424

Yeah, I see the tube stops right in front of me, so I'm going to take that down right now.

425

And then once I'm down there, where do I go?

426

So there's only one line because he throws the left stop.

427

So if you take the Piccadilly line, it's the dark blue line, that'll take you towards me.

428

You don't have to change.

429

Okay.

430

It's just, you just sit on the train for about half an hour and it'll take you to Hammersmith.

431

That's my stop.

432

Okay.

433

And then when you get to Hammersmith, the tube station is in a shopping centre.

434

So if you take the exit marked for the bus station, you don't actually have, I don't know, do you have a lot of luggage with you?

435

No, no, I just have two backpacks, so I'd rather walk.

436

Okay, that's fine.

437

But take the exit for the bus station anyway, because that's the right exit.

438

And then you'll come out into the shopping centre.

439

If you pass the supermarket, it should be on your list.

440

And that'll take you out the right exit of the shopping centre.

441

Okay.

442

When you get out of the shopping centre, you come to Soham Palace Road.

443

Yep.

444

And that's the main road in my area of Hammersmith.

445

You just walk straight down that road.

446

Okay.

447

So it's about, I think, maybe a 10 -minute walk.

448

You probably walk quite quickly, so it'll be 10 minutes at the most.

449

It shouldn't be a problem.

450

Okay, great.

451

You'll pass a park on your right, and then after about five minutes, you'll see a huge, big concrete building.

452

That's the hospital.

453

It's called Charing Cross Hospital on your left.

454

Okay.

455

then my house is about two or three minutes walk from there.

456

It's called Ellaline Road.

457

I think it's four streets after the hospital, and it's on the right -hand side.

458

Okay.

459

My house is the second one from the end.

460

It's got a blue door, but if you want, you can just call me when you get there.

461

Yeah, definitely.

462

So just to confirm, I'm going to take the Piccadilly line all the way to Hammersmith, get off at Hammersmith, go through the mall, take the bus exit.

463

Don't get on the bus, obviously, because I want to walk.

464

Walk all the way down for about 10 minutes, four streets after the hospital, make a right on the road,

465

on the street, and yours is second from the end.

466

On the left, you said, with a blue door or on the right?

467

It's on the left.

468

On the left.

469

So second house from the end on the left is a blue door and I'll give you a call when I'm outside.

470

Okay, great.

471

Fantastic.

472

I can't wait to see you.

473

Perfect.

474

Me either.

475

Have a safe trip.

476

Okay, bye.

477

Thanks.

478

I'll see you soon.

479

Bye.

480

Bye.

실생활 시나리오: 가족과 하루 일과 이야기

이 비디오의 대화는 가족 구성원과 그들의 거주지, 성격, 그리고 하루 일과를 이야기하는 일상적인 장면입니다. 가족 관계, 일상 생활 습관, 직업 등을 다루고 있어 영어로 실제 대화를 나눌 때 자주 사용되는 주제입니다. 특히 "나이 차이", "휴가 때 만나다", "아침 일과" 등의 내용은 생활 영어 실력 향상에 매우 유용합니다.

외우면 바로 쓸 수 있는 유용한 표현 모음

quite a big age gap: 상당히 큰 나이 차이. "My brother's 14 years older than me, and my sister's 10 years older than me."처럼 가족 간 나이 차이를 설명할 때 자주 사용됩니다.
meet up: 만나다. "We try and meet up when we can especially Christmas and Easter."와 같이 특정 시간에 함께 모일 때 쓰입니다.
skip breakfast: 아침을 거르다. "If I'm running late, I would skip breakfast."처럼 시간이 없을 때 아침을 못 먹는 상황을 표현합니다.

지금 당장 할 수 있는 쉐도잉 챌린지!

영어 발음 교정과 말하기 속도를 늘리는 가장 좋은 방법은 shadow speech입니다. 이번 챌린지는 비디오에서 "I usually get up at about 8 o'clock. Usually, the first thing I would do is put the kettle on to make a cup of coffee..." 부분을 골라서 쉐도잉 해보는 것입니다. 다음 단계를 따라 해보세요:

비디오를 1~2번 듣고 발음과 억양을 잘 살펴봅니다.
녹음기를 켜고, 화자가 말한 직후 1~2초 뒤에 따라 말합니다. 이때 목소리 높이, 속도, 강세를 최대한 비슷하게 따라합니다.
녹음한 자신의 목소리를 들으며 원본과 비교해보고, 다른 부분을 찾아 다시 연습합니다.

이렇게 반복하면 영어 쉐도잉 실력이 빠르게 향상될 뿐만 아니라, 자연스러운 표현도 익힐 수 있습니다. 매일 5분씩 연습하다 보면 몇 주 안에 분명한 변화를 느낄 수 있습니다! 더 많은 연습이 필요하다면 shadowing site를 찾아 다양한 대화를 연습해보세요.

이 영상의 문법

화자가 가장 많이 쓰는 문형을 영상 속 실제 표현과 함께 정리했습니다.

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.
