From BBC Learning English, this is Learning English from the News,
2
our podcast about the news headlines.
3
In this programme, Ebola outbreak spreads.
4
Hello, I'm Becca.
5
And I'm Georgie.
6
In this programme, we look at one big news story and the vocabulary in the headlines that will help you understand it.
7
You can find all the vocabulary and headlines from this episode,
8
as well as a worksheet on our website, bbclearningenglish.com.
9
So, let's hear more about this story.
10
An Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo was announced by the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday.
11
An outbreak is a sudden appearance of something,
12
especially of something dangerous or unpleasant.
13
Ebola is a serious disease caused by a virus caught from wild animals and is usually found in certain parts of Africa.
14
It spreads from person to person when they come into contact with infected body fluids such as blood,
15
urine and vomit.
16
Officials in Uganda reported that the deadly virus has spread in the DR Congo.
17
So far, it's thought that there have been 514 cases and 136 deaths.
18
This is the 17th Ebola outbreak in the DR Congo since it was discovered in 1976.
19
Let's have our first headline.
20
This headline is from Ars Technica,
21
a technology, science and politics website.
22
Ebola outbreak with uncommon strain erupts in Congo and Uganda, 65 deaths.
23
And that headline again from Ars Technica,
24
a technology, science and politics website.
25
Ebola outbreak with uncommon strain erupts in Congo and Uganda.
26
65 deaths.
27
This headline was from the 15th of May and since then the death toll has risen.
28
It highlights how quickly Ebola has spread in the DR Congo and Uganda.
29
Yes, the word we'll focus on,
30
which expresses the concept of spreading quickly, is erupt.
31
What can you tell us about erupt, Georgie?
32
Well, when something literally erupts, it explodes.
33
Now, the most obvious example of this is a volcano.
34
A volcano erupts.
35
We can also use erupt metaphorically to talk about something starting suddenly.
36
For example, we could say that the classroom erupted as soon as the teacher left.
37
That means that the students suddenly started getting noisier,
38
they started shouting as soon as the teacher left the room.
39
When we use erupt, it can sometimes express violence.
40
For example, we could say that violence can erupt between protesters and the police.
41
We can also use erupt in an emotional context to talk about a sudden
42
and intense release of a feeling that's been building up,
43
much like the pressure of a volcano.
44
For example, she couldn't hold back her joy any longer and she erupted in tears of happiness.
45
Now, we've heard lots of negative examples of erupt,
46
but this one is quite a positive one.
47
We've heard erupt, start suddenly and on a large scale.
48
For example, the crowd erupted when the rock star finally came on stage.
49
This is Learning English from the News,
50
our podcast about the news headlines.
51
Today we're talking about the spread of Ebola in the DR Congo and Uganda.
52
The total number of suspected cases means that this outbreak is already one of the largest on record.
53
It is thought that there were a series of challenges in detecting the virus in the DR Congo
54
that could have allowed the disease to spread east and across the border towards the capital of Uganda.
55
One challenge in particular came from local funeral practices.
56
It's known that Ebola can spread through contact with infected people,
57
even those who are no longer alive.
58
And that's what our next headline is about.
59
This headline is from Reuters, a news organisation.
60
Flawed tests and funerals allowed Ebola to spread undetected, sources say.
61
And that headline again from Reuters.
62
Flawed tests and funerals allowed Ebola to spread undetected, sources say.
63
This headline mentions how testing for detection was flawed or inaccurate.
64
This, alongside funeral practices, allowed Ebola to spread.
65
The word we're going to focus on here is undetected.
66
So if we look inside this word,
67
the key to understanding it is detect.
68
Now, you might know the job detective,
69
so think about the fictional character Sherlock Holmes.
70
A detective is someone who finds things or discovers them.
71
The adjective detected means found or discovered.
72
We use the prefix un with the adjective detected to make undetected,
73
which means the opposite, you can't find it.
74
The virus was undetected, not found,
75
and therefore it continued to spread.
76
We've had undetected, not found, noticed or discovered.
77
For example, the thieves were undetected for years.
78
They stole thousands of valuable items before getting caught.
79
This is Learning English from the News from BBC Learning English.
80
We're talking about the latest Ebola outbreak.
81
Last week, we reported on a different outbreak,
82
the Hantavirus outbreak, which started on a Dutch cruise ship.
83
However, this next headline talks about how this Ebola outbreak is far more concerning to public health.
84
Ebola is rare, but it's also deadly,
85
with an average death rate of 50%.
86
In some past outbreaks, as many as 90% of infected patients died.
87
Early symptoms of Ebola, such as fever,
88
muscle aches and fatigue, may be mistaken for other common illnesses.
89
Because of this, healthcare workers may not use appropriate protective equipment and become infected themselves.
90
That's what happened during the Ebola outbreak in West Africa between 2014 and 2016.
91
More than 800 healthcare workers became infected and two-thirds died as a result of mistaking the virus for other illnesses.
92
Let's have a look at this headline.
93
This headline is from The Washington Post,
94
a newspaper from the US.
95
Why Congo's Ebola outbreak is far more alarming than hantavirus.
96
And that headline again, Why Congo's Ebola outbreak is far more alarming than hantavirus.
97
And that's from the Washington Post.
98
We're going to look at the adjective alarming.
99
What do we know about this word, Georgie?
100
Well, the noun alarm is a loud sound.
101
It usually warns of danger or something concerning.
102
So imagine a smoke alarm.
103
It sounds when it detects smoke.
104
Yes, and we can sometimes add the suffix ing to a word to make it an adjective,
105
like with alarm and alarming.
106
If something is alarming, it's worrying or could cause concern.
107
Yes, other examples of this include interest and interesting,
108
amaze and amazing, and terror and terrifying.
109
And just a note, adjectives with the suffix ing describe the situation,
110
whereas adjectives with an ed suffix describe the emotion.
111
For example, the red lights were alarming.
112
I was alarmed by the red lights.
113
We've had alarming, worrying or concerning.
114
For example, I saw some alarming news about the rising sea levels.
115
That's it for this episode of Learning English from the News.
116
We'll be back next week with another news story.

맥락 및 배경

이번 비디오는 BBC Learning English에서 제공하는 뉴스 이해를 돕기 위한 팟캐스트입니다. 진행자 Becca와 Georgie는 에볼라 바이러스의 확산에 대한 중요한 뉴스 스토리를 소개하면서, 관련된 어휘와 표현을 통해 청취자들이 보다 잘 이해할 수 있도록 돕습니다. 이 프로그램은 에볼라가 콩고 민주 공화국에서 어떻게 퍼지고 있는지를 설명하며, 그와 관련된 여러 통계와 예를 제공합니다. 이러한 배경 지식은 영어를 학습하는 데 도움을 줄 뿐만 아니라, 현재 이슈에 대한 이해도를 높이는 데도 기여합니다.

일상 대화를 위한 상위 5개 표현

  • Outbreak - 갑작스러운 발생
  • Erupt - 갑자기 시작하다, 폭발하다
  • Spread - 퍼지다, 확산되다
  • Reported - 보고되다
  • Infection - 감염

이 표현들은 에볼라와 같은 공중보건 이슈를 논의할 때 유용합니다. 특히 spread와 erupt와 같은 단어를 활용하여 상황의 긴급성과 심각성을 강조할 수 있습니다. 영어를 학습하는 동안, 이러한 표현들을 연습하여 IELTS 스피킹에서도 활용할 수 있습니다.

단계별 섀도우잉 가이드

이번 에피소드를 사용하여 영어 발음 교정을 위해 섀도우 스피치 기법을 적용해봅시다. 아래의 단계에 따라 연습해보세요:

  1. 비디오 시청: 처음에는 전체 비디오를 그대로 시청하여 내용과 흐름을 익힙니다.
  2. 부분 나누기: 스크립트를 활용하여 비디오를 작은 부분으로 나누고, 각 부분별로 반복하여 들으며 익힙니다.
  3. 섀도우 스피킹: 각각의 문장을 따라하면서 발음과 억양을 연습합니다. 최종적으로는 자연스럽게 이어질 수 있도록 노력합니다.
  4. 감정 표현하기: 대화의 감정을 느끼며 읽어보세요. 예를 들어, erupt 같은 단어를 사용할 때는 강한 감정을 담아 발음해 보세요.
  5. 녹음 및 비교: 자신의 목소리를 녹음하여 원본과 비교해보세요. 개선할 부분을 찾아 보완하는 것이 중요합니다.

이 과정을 통해 영어로 자연스럽고 유창하게 대화할 수 있는 능력을 기를 수 있습니다. 꾸준한 연습이 중요하며, shadowspeaks 기법을 활용하여 매일 한 단계씩 발전해 나가세요.

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.
