1
Growing up in Toronto in the late 1950s, I remember most youth showing the elderly respect.
2
On public transportation, many demonstrated that respect by standing or rising up and offering a seat to a senior.
3
It was just taken for granted as a thing to do, a simple but meaningful way of honouring the hoary head.
4
Regrettably, that tradition is less common now.
5
What is often called the generation gap refers to differences in opinion
6
and preferences that seem to exist between one generation and another, often involving facets of life such as clothing styles,
7
music and entertainment, and the use of technology.
8
The previous generation is seen as a group whose time has passed to be supplanted by a newer
9
and improved generation that considers the seniors of society a financial burden.
10
Most people accept average life expectancy as a general gauge of a country's overall health.
11
In most parts of the ancient world, life was short, especially in cities.
12
Average life expectancy in the Roman Empire, as an example, was around 50 years, when excluding high infant mortality rates.
13
Flash forward to the mid -20th century, where improvements in sanitation, medicine,
14
and nutrition increased average life expectancy to around 60 years of age in many developed nations like Canada.
15
By 2011, that number had reached 81.
16
Today in Canada, the number of people 65 years old and over exceeds those 14 years old and younger.
17
According to the National Post, stat scans said that the latest figures were driven by a trend
18
that took root in 2011 and has continued to accelerate the aging of the baby boomers.
19
Baby boomers now account for 30 % of the senior demographic, the agency said.
20
The ever -growing baby boomer population strains and burdens Canada's pension support system.
21
The Eligibility Age for Old Age Security, OAS, and the Canada Pension Plan,
22
CPP, is 65 years, just a year younger than the average lifespan in Canada when the plan was first introduced.
23
Since then, the average lifespan has increased by almost 20 years.
24
The primary reason, however, as to why the large number of older baby movers are stretching the system is due to the fact
25
that younger generations are not having enough children.
26
Falling birth rates over the past 40 years mean fewer young workers and less contribution to the economy.
27
Is there discrimination toward the elderly, often referred to as ageism?
28
Does the generation gap reinforce the sentiment of scorn towards those who are advanced in years?
29
In a 2014 article, David Cates asks, what do you think of when we talk about seniors?
30
Do you think of someone who is rich with life experience?
31
Perhaps a grandparent working hard in the community to share his or her expertise and wisdom with younger generations?
32
Do you think of a poor, helpless old man or woman, isolated and unable to leave their house?
33
He goes on to illustrate that a severe problem has developed.
34
A 2013 report on ageism from the International Federation on Aging,
35
or IFA, illustrated that 63 percent of seniors aged 66 or older said they had been treated differently because of their age,
36
while a third of all respondents admitted to having treated someone differently because of their age.
37
Among Gen X and Y respondents, the number was 43 and 42 percent respectively.
38
Over 1 in 5 respondents furthermore said they believed older Canadians were a burden on society.
39
Cates points to Greg Shaw, the head of the IFA, who says that such unwarranted discrimination against the elderly is widespread in Canada,
40
something Shaw hopes to combat by bringing the young and the old together in shared activities.
41
In ancient Israel, instruction was given regarding respect for the elderly.
42
You shall rise before the grey -headed and honour the presence of an old man.
43
There was a time when the elderly were more highly regarded,
44
respected and consulted, but now they are too often neglected by a society that wishes to move on.
45
Are the oldest members of our society still a valuable resource?
46
Can they still be contributors in our society?
47
The growing number of seniors, a group referred to as the Hoary Headed,
48
have contributed greatly to the country and many are still gainfully employed.
49
Taking time to access the advice
50
An experience of people who have achieved much in their lives makes the minds
51
and memories of this demographic of great potential worth, if the young will value it.
52
Hopefully there will be a future when the generation gap will be no more, and when the old and young will mix together with mutual love and respect.

이 클립이 좋은 말하기 연습 자료인 이유

이 비디오는 IELTS 스피킹 준비에 딱 맞는 자료입니다. 세대 차이, 사회적 문제, 역사적 맥락 등 다양한 주제가 섞여 있어 실제 토론에서 필요한 논리적 표현과 어휘를 익힐 수 있습니다. 특히 "the hoary head"와 같은 고유 표현이나 통계 데이터를 활용한 문장 구조는 복잡한 주제를 다루는 능력을 키우는데 도움됩니다. 또한, 자연스러운 구어체와 논술적 표현이 조화롭게 섞여 있어 영상 영어 공부를 통해 말하기와 듣기 능력을 동시에 향상시킬 수 있습니다.

자연스러운 표현 분석

  • "It was just taken for granted as a thing to do" – "당연히 해야 할 일로 받아들여졌다"는 의미로, "take for granted"의 자연스러운 사용법을 보여줍니다. 이 표현은 일상 대화나 논술에서 자주 쓰이므로 외워두면 좋습니다.
  • "The ever-growing baby boomer population strains and burdens Canada's pension support system" – "증가하는 베이비 부머 인구가 캐나다 연금 시스템에 부담을 준다"는 뜻입니다. "strains and burdens"처럼 동사를 중복하여 강조하는 표현은 논리적 강도를 높이는 데 효과적입니다.
  • "Such unwarranted discrimination against the elderly is widespread in Canada" – "노인에 대한 이러한 부당한 차별이 캐나다에 널리 퍼져 있다"는 문장입니다. "unwarranted"는 "부당한"이라는 뜻으로, 정확한 어휘 선택이 표현력을 높이는 예입니다.

실전 연습 방법: Shadow Speak 루틴

shadow speak는 말하기 연습의 핵심입니다. 이 비디오를 이용한 연습 방법은 다음과 같습니다. 1) 비디오를 5초씩 재생하고 멈춥니다. 2) 들은 내용을 즉시 따라말하며 영어 발음 교정에 주의합니다. 특히 "life expectancy"나 "ageism"과 같은 어휘의 발음을 확인하세요. 3) 녹음하여 원본과 비교해 차이점을 찾습니다. 4) 10번 이상 반복하여 자연스러운 리듬과 억양을 익힙니다. 이 과정을 매일 15분씩 하면 shadowing site를 사용하는 것과 같은 효과를 볼 수 있습니다. 또한, 전체 내용을 1분 단위로 따라말하며 흐름을 익히면 IELTS 스피킹에서 요구하는 연속적인 말하기 능력을 키울 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.
