Hello, I'm Rob.
3
Welcome to 6 Minute English.
4
With me today is Finn.
5
Hello, Finn.
6
Hello, Rob.
7
Now, Finn, I'd like to start by asking you a question.
8
Would you eat a purple-coloured tomato?
9
Purple.
10
Well, that depends.
11
Is it a naturally-coloured tomato?
12
Where does it come from?
13
Is this an artificial tomato?
14
Rob, tell me more.
15
Artificial, yes.
16
You mean, is it man-made and trying to copy something that is natural?
17
Well, in a way, yes, because scientists have developed a genetically modified purple tomato.
18
They took red tomato plants and changed their genetic patterns, so they now produce new purple tomatoes.
19
Yes, so this would be an example of GM, genetically modified food.
20
It's something we'll be discussing more soon and, of course, looking at some related vocabulary.
21
But here's another question for you, Finn, that hasn't been modified or changed in any way.
22
Not a GM question.
23
No. GM food has been researched and experimented with for many years,
24
but do you know when the first genetically modified food was first sold commercially? Was it in A.
25
1974, B.
26
1984 or C.
27
1994?
28
Well, we think of GM food as a recent thing, so I'll say the opposite.
29
A 1974.
30
Okay we'll find out if you're right later on.
31
Now let's talk more about genetically modified food or GM food.
32
It's called this because the food's genes have been changed.
33
This means the way it grows is different from the way it grows when it isn't touched by humans.
34
Yes so growing GM food or crops is quite controversial.
35
Some Some scientists think it's needed to meet the world's growing demand for food.
36
Yes, GM food can resist or stop the effects of some pests or bad weather.
37
It can grow more quickly, meaning even more crops can be cultivated or grown.
38
But opponents of GM food, people who argue against it, say we don't know enough about its effect on the environment.
39
And then there are the fears about who controls what's grown.
40
Yes, but despite this, GM food has become an important part of food production.
41
Crops like sweet corn, rape plants, wheat and tomatoes have all been genetically modified.
42
Yes, like the purple tomato, which was recently developed in the UK.
43
It has a dark pigment or colour which gives it the same potential health benefits as blueberries.
44
Well, that sounds like a good thing.
45
And not only that, it has an antioxidant.
46
That's a substance that stops the decaying process, which tests show could help fight cancer.
47
One day we could see these purple tomatoes on pizzas or in our tomato ketchup.
48
Let's hear from Professor Cathy Martin, who's a plant biologist from the John Innis Centre, who developed this tomato.
49
What does she say is good about this new food?
50
So with these purple tomatoes you can get the same compounds
51
that are present in blueberries and cranberries that give them their health benefits,
52
but you can apply them to foods that people actually eat in significant amounts and that are reasonably affordable.
53
So, she says, the good thing about this development is we can get health benefits from something we eat significant amounts of,
54
so lots of, and they will be reasonably affordable, so it'll be cheap.
55
Yes, but there's still maybe a problem with the colour.
56
We are affected by the colour of stuff we put in our mouths.
57
I mean, who eats blue food?
58
That's true.
59
And also, because the European Union has restrictions on growing GM food, this tomato has to be grown in Canada,
60
where rules are more supportive of GM foods.
61
OK.
62
Well, Professor Nick Pidgeon, who is an environmental psychologist, says In the UK, there is some distrust of GM food.
63
He says some people are concerned all this is messing with nature, it's not natural, and maybe we don't know what the long-term consequences are.
64
And a big concern is that large corporations will have control over the technology,
65
and this could mean they control food prices too.
66
You know, Rob, I think this is a debate that will just go on and on and on.
67
Indeed.
68
But it's now time to reveal the answer to today's question.
69
OK.
70
Earlier, I asked you if you knew when the first genetically modified food was first sold commercially.
71
I said A 1974.
72
Interesting.
73
The answer is actually 1994.
74
Oh, come on.
75
OK.
76
A company called Calgene sold a product that delayed the ripening of tomatoes.
77
Oh, OK.
78
Well, I guess that means the fruit could last longer and it would stop it going soft.
79
That was the idea.
80
Now, before we go, Finn, could you remind us of some of the vocabulary that we've heard today?
81
Yes, I will.
82
Artificial.
83
Genetically modified.
84
Genes.
85
Resist.
86
Pests.
87
Cultivated.
88
Pigment.
89
Antioxidant.
90
Significant.
91
Affordable.
92
Distrust.
93
Ripening.
94
Well, that brings us to the end of today's Six Minute English.
95
We hope you've enjoyed today's programme.
96
Please join us again soon.
97
Bye-bye.
98
Bye.

이 비디오로 스피킹 연습하는 이유

유튜브 영어 공부에서 실용적인 주제는 필수입니다. 이 비디오는 "유전자 변형 토마토"라는 현실적인 주제를 다루며, 일상 대화뿐만 아니라 과학 용어도 포함해 다양한 말하기 상황을 연습할 수 있습니다. 특히 쉐도잉 연습에 좋은데, 로브와 핀의 자연스러운 발화 속도와 억양을 따라하기 쉽고, 논쟁적인 주제로 인해 의견을 표현하는 표현도 배울 수 있습니다. shadowing site나 shadowspeaks에서 이 영상을 활용하면, 실제 의사소통에서 필요한 유창성과 정확성을 동시에 키울 수 있습니다.

문맥 속 문법 & 표현

  • "It depends.": 상황에 따라 달라진다는 뜻으로, 의견을 피하지 않고 유연하게 답변할 때 사용합니다. 예: "Would you eat GM food?"에 "It depends on the research results."처럼 쓸 수 있습니다.
  • "in a way": 어떤 면에서는 라는 뜻으로, 부분적으로 동의하거나 설명을 덧붙일 때 유용합니다. 비디오에서 "in a way, yes"처럼 사용되며, "This book is difficult, but in a way, it's interesting."와 같이 활용합니다.
  • "despite this": 이에 불구하고 라는 접속사구로, 반대되는 상황을 연결할 때 사용합니다. "Opponents argue, but despite this, GM food is popular."처럼 논리적인 흐름을 만들 수 있습니다.

발음 트랩

  • "genetically modified": /dʒəˈnetɪkli ˈmɒdɪfaɪd/로 발음하되, "genetically"의 'ti'가 /ʃ/로 발음되는 것을 주의하세요. 쉐도잉할 때 너무 빨리 말아서 'geneticaly'로 잘못 발음하지 마세요.
  • "antioxidant": /ˌæntiˈɒksɪdənt/로, 'anti'가 /ænti/가 아니라 /ænti/로 발음되며, 'oxidant'의 'x'가 /ks/로 들립니다. 영어 쉐도잉할 때 이 단어의 강세가 'oxi'에 있다는 것을 기억하세요.
  • "pigment": /ˈpɪɡmənt/로, 'g'가 강하게 발음되지 않고 부드럽게 /ɡ/로 발음됩니다. 'pigmant'로 발음하지 마세요.

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.
