1
Order, personal statement, Sir Edward Heath.
2
Amen.
3
Mr Speaker, I was absolutely delighted,
4
as I'm sure was the right honourable gentleman,
5
the member for Chesterfield opposite,
6
by the glowing tributes which the Prime Minister Mr. Speaker,
7
the Prime Minister paid to us at the beginning of his remarks,
8
inspired, no doubt, by the first part of the speech of my right hon. friend,
9
the Leader of the Opposition.
10
The second half was not quite in the same vein.
11
And I should like to thank you,
12
Mr. Speaker, very much for allowing me to make this personal statement as my final contribution to these proceedings in this Parliament.
13
A final contribution which explains why I am using a script for the first time since I ceased to be Prime Minister.
14
As a retiring member,
15
I am grateful to the electors of Bexley for returning me as their representative in 14 successive general elections.
16
It has been an honour and a privilege,
17
as well as a pleasure to serve them.
18
I shall like to take this opportunity also to pay tribute to the staff of this House.
19
These are often forgotten people,
20
clerks, security staff, librarians, catering staff and others.
21
They ensure that this place runs so efficiently.
22
As father of the House,
23
I feel a certain responsibility to ensure that we do appreciate what they do and to pay tribute to them.
24
You, Mr Speaker, are also serving our thanks in allowing myself
25
and the Right Honourable Member for Chesterfield the freedom of the House
26
which you so kindly offered us in some of the facilities of this establishment.
27
It's over 51 years now since I became a member here,
28
and I remember full well the impact it made upon me in those early days.
29
In fact, I'd only been a member for a few months
30
when I was invited to become a whip and a member of the Conservative Opposition.
31
As a result of that,
32
I spent my first 25 years here on the front bench,
33
either in government or in opposition.
34
And following that, I spent the next 25 years on the front bench.
35
Below the gangway.
36
And during that time I learned a great deal,
37
particularly perhaps when I was first a whip,
38
or in fact the reason why I became a whip.
39
In those days the whips had a place at the door and if they wanted to they kept members in.
40
All that's passed.
41
But our whip was said to one of our members,
42
Have you got a pair?
43
No, he said, and went on.
44
Well, then you can't go out.
45
Get a pair.
46
No, I haven't got a pair.
47
Whereupon our enthusiastic whip jumped up,
48
gave him a hefty kick in the usual places,
49
and the man went flat on the floor.
50
He had to be picked up,
51
and when taken on his feet,
52
he went to the chief whip and complained.
53
As a result, the whip himself was changed.
54
and I was sent for and invited to take his place.
55
The result was a notice which appeared in the next day's Times which said,
56
Colonel Walter Bromley Davenport, Member of Parliament for Knutsford.
57
Majority 16,913.
58
He has resigned in order to give greater attention to his constituents.
59
His place is now being taken by Mr Edward Heath,
60
Member of Parliament for Bexley, majority 133.
61
That is how I began my climb to fame.
62
And I was taken the next day to see Churchill,
63
and he patted me on the shoulder and said,
64
Yes, of course you can be a whip.
65
And I quote his words,
66
It will mean much hard work,
67
and it will be unremunerated.
68
But so long as I am your leader,
69
it will never remain unthanked.
70
That was a guiding principle all the time.
71
And so after that, I had all the work involving so many different activities and so many different parts of the world.
72
It also entailed the relationship between Parliament and the executive, the government itself.
73
When I look back over my 51 years here,
74
I cannot help but be saddened by the increasing impotence of this House
75
and the decline in the esteem in which this place is held.
76
Speaking quite frankly,
77
the powers of Parliament to hold the executive to account have
78
been declining for over a century under governments of all political persuasions.
79
I can only hope that the next Parliament,
80
following us, will reassert its authority as well and robustly hold the executive to account.
81
I would like to say a word about standards in public life.
82
It is also the behaviour of us members that has undermined public confidence in parliamentary democracy.
83
As I noted during a previous debate,
84
when I entered the House in 1950,
85
every Member of Parliament was seen as a person of integrity.
86
Unfortunately, some reckless campaigning and an increasingly cynical media,
87
excessively focusing on a few examples,
88
one of the unparliamentary behaviour,
89
have led to serious and worrying decline in the public perception of Members of Parliament.
90
I also hope that the new intake
91
and existing members will take note of the need to set an example in these spheres.
92
I also hope that when the conduct of one or two members falls below the required standards,
93
the media will not try and tar all members in the House with the same brush.
94
Perhaps I may say a word.
95
Finally, about Europe.
96
Did I hear a rumbling on that?
97
As it's already been extensively dealt with tonight by my leader,
98
I have no doubt about continuing.
99
It is most appropriate I make the final points of my statement and my final remarks in this House on Europe.
100
I've been a committed European since my Oxford days.
101
My pro-European outlook was reinforced by my wartime experiences.
102
In 1945, as both the victors and the vanquished surveyed the devastation wrought upon the continent,
103
it became obvious that Europe could not afford another war.
104
Unfortunately, the case for British membership of the European community was not recognised by British governments in the 1950s.
105
And so this country lost the opportunity to be a founder member of the community.
106
However, its architects, Sean Monnet and Robert Schumann,
107
correctly recognised that the European community would not be complete without the United Kingdom.
108
My proudest achievement was to have successfully negotiated entry of the United Kingdom into the European community.
109
In January 1972, she fulfilled her destiny.
110
The United Kingdom has always been a European country.
111
We have a shared history and culture.
112
In the modern world, it is only right
113
that we should share our sovereignty with our European neighbours for the greater benefit of all.
114
Yes.
115
In due course, for the second time in a quarter of a century,
116
the British people are going to be asked to vote on whether
117
or not the country can remain a committed player in Europe.
118
I look forward to campaigning vigorously for a yes vote.
119
I have absolutely no doubt whatever that the united Europe is here to stay.
120
I believe it is in British interest
121
and I believe we should do everything we can to help it and to help its people.
122
We shall then be helping ourselves as a people and as a country.
123
And we shall be supporting our own continent and
124
that will also be for the good not only of Europe as a whole but also for the world.
125
And so for those who are going to follow us here tonight,
126
I wish them all well.

이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 하는 이유는?

이 비디오는 에드워드 히스 MP의 마지막 하원의원 연설을 담고 있습니다. 이러한 개인적인 발언은 정치적 상황을 넘어 인간적인 경험과 감정을 전달합니다. 영어 회화 연습에 있어, 실제 정치인의 연설을 통해 정중하고 공식적인 의사 표현 방식을 배울 수 있습니다. 이를 통해 학생들은 다양한 언어적 환경에서 상황에 맞는 표현을 익히고 자신감을 얻을 수 있습니다. 또한, IELTS 스피킹 시험 준비 시에도 유용한 연설 스타일을 접할 수 있습니다.

문맥 속의 문법 및 표현

  • As a retiring member, I am grateful to the electors... - 이 구문은 "퇴직하는 의원으로서 유권자들에게 감사하다"는 의미로, 감사의 표현이 중요한 상황에서 어떻게 활용될 수 있는지를 보여줍니다.
  • It has been an honour and a privilege... - 이러한 표현은 공적 위치에서의 겸손함과 존중을 나타내며, 감사의 감정을 강조하는 데 효과적입니다.
  • During that time I learned a great deal... - 이는 경험을 바탕으로 배운 점을 정리하며, 비즈니스나 공식적인 상황에서 유용하게 쓰일 수 있습니다.

이러한 구조를 사용해 학생들은 보다 자연스럽고 효과적으로 자신의 생각을 전달하는 법을 배울 수 있습니다. 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 다양한 표현을 실제 상황에 맞게 적용하는 방법을 연습해보세요.

일반적인 발음 함정

이 비디오에서 주목해야 할 발음의 특징은 강세와 리듬입니다. 예를 들어, "privilege"와 같은 단어는 발음이 어렵고 발음 방식에 따라 의미가 달라질 수 있습니다. 이러한 단어들을 연습할 때는 영어 발음 교정에 유의하며 발음의 음절에 강세를 주는 것이 중요합니다. 또한, 정치적 맥락에서 자주 사용하는 단어들이 특정 억양을 가지고 나타나므로, 이러한 억양을 따라 하는 것도 좋은 연습이 됩니다. 히스 의원의 연설을 반복하여 따라해보며 음성을 조정하는 것도 효과적인 방법입니다. shadowspeak 기법을 적용하여 반복 연습을 통해 더 좋은 발음과 유창함을 얻을 수 있습니다.

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.
