1
Hello there, I'm Tighe Enright.
2
We're starting in the United States,
3
where at least 10 people have been killed in the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles,
4
that death toll having been revised upwards just over an hour ago.
5
Around 180,000 people have been ordered to leave their homes.
6
Many neighbourhoods have been left unrecognisable.
7
Residents have described the firestorm as apocalyptic.
8
Officials say that thousands of homes and other structures have been damaged or destroyed.
9
AccuWeather estimates the damage is expected to be worth at least $135 billion.
10
It could go as high as $150 billion.
11
And the National Guard has been deployed amid reports of looting.
12
The biggest fires have been burning into a third night.
13
Fierce winds have eased, giving firefighters some respite.
14
Police say they believe one of the blazes in the west of the city We started deliberately.
15
They're treating it as a crime scene.
16
A suspect is in custody and will be questioned.
17
Our North America correspondent, David Willis.
18
Forgive me, we're going to go across live now or hear the latest from our correspondent, Helena Humphrey.
19
I watched this house burn down live on the news.
20
Yeah, this was a beautiful home.
21
Had a lot of good times here.
22
It's hard to put into words the level of devastation here.
23
But the L.A.
24
County Sheriff put it bluntly.
25
In some areas, he said,
26
it looks like a bomb had been dropped.
27
So far, land more than twice the size of Manhattan lies in ruins.
28
And still, these fires rage out of control.
29
There is a new fire,
30
unfortunately, in West Hills, pushing into Ventura County.
31
and we are expecting this fire to rapidly spread due to high winds.
32
This is a reminder that this is a very dynamic situation that can change quickly.
33
On Thursday, a brief lull in those fierce Santa Ana winds allowed aircraft to streak across the skies,
34
dropping water and fire retardant onto the flames.
35
But there's no guarantee that that calm will last,
36
with forecasters warning more winds could fan these infernos even further.
37
The wind definitely played the biggest part,
38
especially with the flying ambers.
39
I mean, when we're seeing ambers,
40
it's shooting over my head like,
41
oh my gosh, that's somebody's house,
42
that's someone's property, just balls of fire.
43
Some residents have ventured back,
44
bracing themselves for what they'd find,
45
only to discover their homes reduced to little more than ash.
46
Many told us they're simply too devastated to speak on camera.
47
These fires don't discriminate, tearing through every kind of neighbourhood,
48
from lavish mansions to humble bungalows.
49
All of them wants a place of safety for someone.
50
This looks like the apocalypse.
51
It just doesn't feel like the normal things that happen in your life.
52
This is something very unusual.
53
And for others, the scope of this catastrophe confirms their growing fears about the changing climate.
54
This is obvious that stuff like this is happening
55
because of global warming and people
56
that just want to deny it just don't know science and don't know how to research those things.
57
So I think that humans are funny because they think anywhere they move in this world they'll be safe,
58
but the entire world has global warming.
59
I guess pick your disaster and live there.
60
What disaster makes a human feel most comfortable?
61
Because that's the world we're living in at this point.
62
Here in Altadena, fire crews are out battling these hot spots.
63
You can see that many homes like this one are still smouldering.
64
And you can see here that this entire neighbourhood,
65
this entire community has essentially been wiped out.
66
We've been speaking to families here who have lived in these homes for generations
67
and in just a matter of hours they've lost everything.
68
And in some of the hardest hit areas a night time
69
curfew is in place as some try to profit from the chaos.
70
Looting has already led to multiple arrests.
71
Meanwhile President Biden has pledged his support for all those affected.
72
To the families who have been impacted by this disaster,
73
you're living through a nightmare, I know.
74
And I promise you, we're going to help you get through this and eventually recover and rebuild.
75
But rebuilding is hard to imagine right now,
76
when all these residents can do is wait,
77
hoping and praying that the next gust of wind won't stoke the embers back into an inferno.
78
Helena Humphrey, BBC News, Los Angeles.
79
I spoke to our North America correspondent David Willis a short
80
time ago who brought us up to date on what's happening where he is in Altadena.
81
There is an eerie silence at this,
82
the site of the Pasadena, Altadena fire.
83
Behind me is all that remains of what was once a wood-framed family home.
84
You can see, really, it is just the staircase leading to what was the upper floor.
85
Over there is a family car that is completely burnt out
86
and there is not a property on this street that has not been either completely destroyed or very badly damaged.
87
Now earlier today another fire broke out,
88
a very fast moving fire to the west of us here.
89
That was very swiftly brought under control though after it spread
90
to encompass about a thousand acres of land after firefighters used the dropping of water from helicopters and planes overhead.
91
Now, police here are investigating the cause of that particular fire
92
and they are questioning a man on suspicion of possibly committing arson.
93
Now, the biggest blaze of all is,
94
of course, the Pacific Palisades fire.
95
That grew to about 17,000 acres or so.
96
The good news there is that there is,
97
I hear, some containment that's taken place.
98
About 6% of that massive fire that,
99
of course, destroyed hundreds of multimillion-dollar properties a few nights ago has now been contained.
100
But there is a lot of work still to do there.
101
And officials have been pinning their hopes on the fact
102
that the winds were due to stay fairly calm for the next few hours before potentially whipping up again over the weekend,
103
which could, of course, make their job all the more difficult.
104
The disaster management efforts, these fires are burning into a third night.
105
We've been hearing some firefighters have been struggling to get access even to water.
106
How has that operation been ramped up?
107
Well, it's going to ramp up considerably in the next few days.
108
Indeed, it has over the last few hours and my colleague Ben is behind the camera at the moment,
109
came here, traveled here from Nevada.
110
He saw a convoy of fire trucks coming in from the state of Nevada,
111
as indeed they are being drafted in from states all around here,
112
Oregon, Arizona, Washington state, and so on.
113
We're talking about mechanisms as well as machinery and mechanisms as well as manpower.
114
400 additional firefighters have been brought in over the last few hours
115
and the federal agencies and the White House are saying
116
that whatever is needed here will be provided in order to get these sort of communities back on their feet.

수업 개요

이번 수업에서는 최근 로스앤젤레스에서 발생한 산불에 대한 기사를 바탕으로 영어 회화를 연습합니다. Learners will focus on comprehension and speaking skills through the use of real-life dialogue and vocabulary. 이 수업을 통해, 우리는 어휘력을 늘리고, 자연스러운 발음을 연습하여 보다 효과적인 shadowspeak 능력을 개발할 것입니다.

주요 어휘 및 구문

  • Death toll - 사망자 수
  • Wildfires - 산불
  • Evacuate - 대피하다
  • Destructive - 파괴적인
  • Damage - 피해
  • Apocalyptic - 종말론적인
  • Crime scene - 범죄 현장
  • Dispense - 배포하다

연습 팁

이번 비디오에서 다루는 내용은 특히 긴박감이 느껴지며 빠른 발음이 특징입니다. 따라서 shadow speech 연습 시, 다음과 같은 팁을 활용하십시오:

  • 천천히 반복하기: 처음에는 속도를 늦추어 발음과 억양에 집중하며 반복합니다. 이해가 가는 대로 점차 속도를 높여보세요.
  • 감정 표현 연습: 연기하듯이 발음하면서 화자의 감정을 느껴보세요. 긴박한 상황에서는 목소리의 높낮이를 조절하여 더욱 실감 나게 표현할 수 있습니다.
  • 부분적으로 나누어 반복하기: 긴 문장을 작은 부분으로 나누어 각 부분을 빠르게 반복합니다. 이렇게 하면 문장의 구조를 이해하고 기억하는 데 도움이 됩니다.
  • 비교와 대조하기: 원본 비디오와 함께 자신의 목소리를 녹음하여 비교해 보세요. 목소리의 발음과 억양 차이를 찾아보는 것이 좋습니다.

이러한 연습을 통해, IELTS 스피킹 능력을 더욱 향상시킬 수 있습니다. 각 문장마다 감정을 담아 연습하며, 자연스러운 영어 회화 연습을 이어가세요!

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.
