You ready?
6
So today, I'm going to talk about natural disasters.
7
This is an interesting topic because, depending on where you live, you might have to deal with natural disasters on a regular basis.
8
Let's go through some of the most notable disasters that occur throughout the world.
9
First, let's talk about earthquakes.
10
For a lot of people, this might just be the scariest disaster because it can strike at any moment without any notice.
11
That being said, the vast majority of earthquakes are minor and cause little to no damage.
12
As a California native, I've obviously witnessed my share of earthquakes, but I've only ever really experienced one major earthquake.
13
It just so happens that I was at the gym and when the earthquake started, all the weights and machines started shaking.
14
I was definitely a little freaked out.
15
But that's really the only time I've been in a big earthquake.
16
If you live in certain parts of the world, you might never have experienced an earthquake in your whole life.
17
For example, my Brazilian students usually tell me that they've never been in an earthquake before.
18
But on the other hand, my students from Chile and Japan tell me that they feel an earthquake almost every week.
19
For most of us, that seems insane.
20
And what about you?
21
Have you ever been in an earthquake before?
22
Okay, so now let's talk about hurricanes.
23
Hurricanes can be some of the most destructive events imaginable.
24
Take Hurricane Katrina, for instance.
25
This category 5 hurricane absolutely devastated the city of New Orleans and caused almost 2,000 deaths and over $125 billion in damage.
26
Of course, not all hurricanes are this catastrophic, but all hurricanes cause some damage when they hit land.
27
Thankfully, I've never been affected by a hurricane before, since I'm from the west coast of the US, which is never affected by hurricanes.
28
But for people living on the south and east coasts, these storms pose a constant threat.
29
I can't imagine what it would feel like to know that there's a hurricane headed straight in my direction.
30
I hope I never find out.
31
Alright another natural disaster that can cause all kinds of damage is a tornado.
32
Tornados are a phenomenon that happen in the middle of the US, in states like Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska, where the landscape is really flat.
33
You might have seen tornadoes featured in American movies before, where the people have to take shelter underground and wait for the tornado to pass by their town.
34
I'm glad that I've never gotten caught in the path of a tornado before.
35
Alright one more natural disaster that affects people all over the world is floods.
36
can happen in all kinds of different places.
37
If you live in a city that doesn't have a high level of infrastructure, it's likely that you've seen some flooding before.
38
In Mexico, for example, many parts of the big cities flood every time there's heavy rain.
39
The parts of the city that are at a lower altitude become like lakes and rivers and drivers have a hard time navigating.
40
Sometimes the cars just stop and wait for the rain to subside and for the water to clear out.
41
As you can imagine, the traffic becomes a complete mess.
42
I really hate the rainy season in Mexico because all of this is a normal occurrence.
43
Floods may not be the scariest natural disaster, but they can be a huge inconvenience and they can become dangerous.
44
Which natural disaster seems the scariest to you?
45
Alright that's all for today.
46
Leave a comment and tell me if you've ever experienced a natural disaster.

이 레슨에 대해
"B1 English Listening Practice - Natural Disasters"으로 쉐도잉 기법을 사용해 영어를 연습합니다.
매일 15~30분 꾸준히 연습하면 IELTS 스피킹에 대한 자신감이 길러집니다.
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.
