쉐도잉 연습: Barack Obama's Inspirational Speech with Subtitles | One of The Greatest Speeches Ever by President - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

I am so proud of each and every one of you.

We are here today because every single one of you stood tall and said yes we can.

Yes we can learn, yes we can succeed.

You decided you would not be defined by where you come from but by where you want to go, what you want to achieve,

by the dreams you hope to fulfilled.

For we gather here tonight in times when the very foundations of our lives,

the old order has been shaken, the old ideas and institutions have crumbled,

and a new generation is called upon to remake the world.

And let me be clear, when I say young, I'm not just referring to the date of your birth certificate.

I'm talking about an approach to life, a quality of mind and a quality of heart.

We need people like you to step up.

We need your daring, we need your enthusiasm, we need your energy, we need your imagination.

A willingness to follow your passions regardless of whether they lead to fortune and fame.

A willingness to question conventional wisdom and rethink old Douglas.

A lack of regard for all the traditional markers of status and prestige,

and a commitment instead to doing what's meaningful to you, what helps others, what makes a difference in this world.

We're engaged in two wars, a struggle against terrorism.

The threats of climate change,

nuclear proliferation, the pandemic, defy national boundaries and easy solutions.

For many of you, these challenges are also felt in more personal terms.

Perhaps you're still looking for a job.

You're struggling to figure out what career path makes sense.

Now, in the face of these challenges,

it may be tempting to fall back on the formulas for success that have been peddled so frequently in recent years.

It goes something like this.

We too often let the external, the material things serve as indicators that we're doing well,

even though something inside us tells us that we're not doing our best.

That we're avoiding that which is hard, but also necessary.

That we're shrinking from, rather than rising to, the challenges of the age.

And the thing is, in this new hyper-competitive age, none of us, none of us can afford to be complacent.

That's true whatever profession you choose.

Professors might earn the distinction of tenure, but that doesn't guarantee that they'll put in the long hours

and late nights and have the passion and the drive to be great educators.

The same principle is true in your personal life.

Being a parent is not just a matter of paying the bills, doing the bare minimum.

It's not just bringing a child into the world that matters,

but the acts of love and sacrifice it takes to raise and educate that child and give them opportunity.

I'm standing here as president because of the education that I received.

I know it's not always easy to do well in school.

I know a lot of you have challenges in your lives right now.

I get it.

I know what it's like.

My father left my family when I was two years old.

And I was raised by a single mom who had to work

and who struggled at times to pay the bills and wasn't always able to give us the things that other kids had.

There were times when I missed having a father in my life.

There were times when I was lonely and I felt like I didn't fit in.

So I wasn't always as focused as I should have been on school.

And I did some things that I'm not proud of.

And I got in more trouble than I should have.

My life could have easily taken a turn for the worse.

But my mother, my grandparents, they pushed me to excel.

But I was lucky.

I got a lot of second chances, and I had the opportunity to go to college and law school and follow my dreams.

You can't let the past get you down.

You have to let it motivate you.

Everybody here has got a unique story like that to tell.

Each of you knows what it took for you to get here.

But in reaching this milestone, there's a common lesson shared by every graduate in this hall.

It's not where you are, or what you are, it's who you are.

Because life will throw some things at you.

Truth is, not a single one of the graduates here today has had his easy.

Not a single one of you had anything handed to you on a silver crown.

You had to work for it.

You had to earn it.

Most of all, you had to believe in yourselves.

Yes, you've always been underdogs.

Nobody's handed you a thing.

But that also means that whatever you accomplish in your life, you will have earned it.

Whatever rewards and joys you reap, you'll appreciate them that much more because they will have come to your own sweat antiques.

Products of your own effort and your own talents.

You've shown more grit and determination in your childhoods than a lot of adults ever will.

That's who you are.

We need everyone to broaden their ideas about what is possible.

We need parents, politicians, and the media to see how success is possible.

How success is happening every day.

So that's why I came here today.

Because if success can happen here, you have everything you need to get started.

You've got no excuses.

You have no excuses not to change the world.

Did you study business?

Go start a company.

Or why not help a struggling not-for-profit find better, more effective ways to serve folks in need?

You study nursing?

Go understaff clinics and hospitals across this country are desperate for your help.

You study education?

Teach in a high-needs school where the kids really need you.

Give a chance to kids who can't get everything they need maybe in their neighborhood, maybe not even in their home,

but we can't afford to give up on them.

Prepare them to compete for any job anywhere in the world.

We study engineering, help us lead a green revolution,

developing new sources of clean energy that will power our economy and preserve our planet.

Find somebody to be successful for.

Raise their hopes.

Rise to their needs.

That's what's made a difference in our lives, and it's going to make an even greater difference in your lives.

Not just for your own success.

Because we live in a new world now.

The hard road does not end here.

100

Your journey has just begun.

101

It won't protect you against every setback or challenge or mistake.

102

You'll make some, I promise.

103

You're going to have to keep working hard.

104

You're going to have to keep pushing yourselves.

105

And you'll find yourself sometime in situations where folks have had an easier time.

106

They're a little bit ahead of you and you're going to have to work harder than that.

107

And you may be frustrated by that.

108

You may have setbacks and you may have failures, but you're not done.

109

You're not even getting started.

110

And if you ever forget that, just look to history.

111

Colonel Sanders didn't open up his first Kentucky Fried Chicken until he was in his 60s.

112

Winston Churchill was dismissed as little more than a has-been who

113

enjoyed scotch a little bit too much before he took over as Prime Minister and saw Great Britain through its finest hour.

114

When you read a great story, or you learn about an important moment in history,

115

it helps you imagine what it would be like to walk in somebody else's shoes, to know their struggles.

116

Each of them, at one point in their life, didn't have any title or much status to speak of. But they had passion.

117

A commitment to following that passion wherever it would lead, into working hard every step along the way.

118

But if you do push yourselves, and you build on what you've already accomplished here, then I couldn't be more pounter about your futures.

119

I'm hopeful and I'm excited about what all of you do.

120

And I know that armed with the skills and experience and love that you've gained, you're ready to make your mark on the board.

121

Thank you.

122

Thanks for inspiring me.

123

I know starting your careers in troubled times is a challenge, but it is also a privilege.

124

Because it's moments like these that force us to try harder

125

and dig deeper and to discover gifts we never knew we had.

126

To find the greatness that lies within each of us.

127

So don't ever shy away from that endeavor.

128

I can promise that you will be the better for that continued effort.

129

Congratulations.

130

God bless you.

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.
