Well, let's join Emma Vardy,

who's in Los Angeles for us.

Emma.
15
Well, among all that devastation here,
16
as well as people's homes,
17
are a number of schools and churches also now lying in rubble.
18
And today, on a Sunday,
19
congregations have been finding new places to come together.
20
Meanwhile, of course, that monumental firefighting effort is now being helped by new crews coming in from Mexico and from Canada
21
as LA tries to sustain its resistance against the flames as this crisis continues.
22
The race to stay ahead of the deadly fires enters a sixth day.

He just got caught burglarizing a home.

we are going all around town.

The community is pulling together to weather this disaster,
51
but there are fears over how some are being affected.
52
You know, people can take the land and they can buy the land,
53
so we want to make sure they remain the landowners and they continue to retain their property.
54
My concern is mainly for the underserved and the at-risk,
55
which are the elderly and then also the children.

The scale of the destruction in neighborhoods is vast.

As you know, our beloved South Campus has been severely damaged by the recent fires.

63
up the hill and down into the valley too.
64
There's helicopters flying just above us,
65
just dropping water now, trying to keep those flames at bay.

16 people have now died in these fires.

Emma Vardy, BBC News, Los Angeles.
71
Well, despite the major ongoing challenges,
72
firefighters have told the BBC that they are cautiously optimistic that they're beginning to gain the upper hand.
73
The crucial difference, they say,
74
has been the ability to bring in aircraft as the wind speeds dropped.
75
Over the past week, our correspondent John Sudworth has spent days and nights watching the work of the fire crews up close,
76
and he sent this report.
77
In this unprecedented disaster, fire crews have faced an unprecedented fight.
78
An overwhelming wildfire ripping through one of America's most densely populated cities,
79
fueled by hurricane force winds.
80
Let us know for you in your way too, OK?
81
All right.
82
Cool.
83
Thanks, guys.
84
But battalion chief Brent Basqua now believes their fortunes are shifting for one main reason.
85
We're cautiously optimistic because it's not going to be 70 mile an hour winds.
86
The rug got swept out under us from the winds downing our aircraft.
87
They're just, we can't use them.
88
It's too unsafe for the pilots
89
and the retardant doesn't even make it to the ground when it's over 50 miles an hour.
90
So we had to ground our aircraft.
91
The helicopters did what they could,
92
but it still just shows you how important it is to have
93
that coordinated effect with the firefighters on the ground and the ones in the sky.
94
Now, as those wind speeds have dropped,
95
the aircraft have been able to get off the ground,
96
bombarding the fire with water and fire retardant.
97
For the past two days they've been flying sortie after sortie,
98
right around the clock.
99
In coordination with the ground teams,
100
the hills around this city have been turned into into a smouldering moonscape
101
as they begin to get on top of the fight.
102
On Wednesday night we saw for ourselves how firefighters,
103
without the air support, were left helpless.
104
Facing water shortages as pressure dropped,
105
this crew was forced to watch these homes burn while trying desperately to save the other side of the street.
106
Two days on and the fires here have finally burned themselves out.
107
As expected, every single property here now a gutted shell.
108
This is where the fire truck was that night and the extraordinary thing is,
109
against the odds, they won the battle they were fighting.
110
Their careful use of the small amounts of water they had,
111
saving every property on this side of the street.
112
Many thousands were not so lucky,
113
left facing a crisis on unimaginable scale.
114
But in the fight against the fire at least,
115
they're now daring to hope the worst may be over.
116
This is still no time for complacency.
117
Everybody is certain of that.
118
There are still some 4,000 firefighters on this one fire alone,
119
the fire they are calling the Palisades fire.
120
There are more than 100,000 people across this city of Los Angeles under evacuation orders.
121
And everybody is keeping a careful eye on those forecasts for strengthening winds later into the week.
122
But here is the crucial difference, Rita.
123
Those forecasts from late Monday through to Wednesday suggest we will
124
see wind speeds with gusts of around 50 to 55 miles an hour.
125
That is a long way short of the 100 mile an hour gusts we were getting on Monday and Tuesday.
126
It's within the normal range of the Santa Ana winds.
127
The kind of things these crews here say they are well used to dealing with,
128
and it should also mean absolutely crucially,
129
they can keep those aircraft that you can hear going overhead up in the skies,
130
getting above the fire.
131
So, you know, growing confidence,
132
not complacency, but growing confidence that they are still retaining the upper hand.

연습 팁
이 영상을 보고 나서, 영어 쉐도잉 기법을 사용하여 상황에 맞는 대화를 반복해 보세요. 영상 속의 대화 속도는 빠르지만, 감정이 담긴 억양을 따라 하는 것이 중요합니다. 영상 내용을 여러 번 듣고, 유튜브 영어 공부를 통해 각 문장을 정확하게 따라 해보세요. 문장별로 분할해서 연습하는 것도 좋은 방법입니다.
특히, 경찰의 경고나 소방관에 대한 설명이 있는 부분에서는 그들의 말투와 감정을 잘 표현하는 것이 중요합니다. 정해진 시간에 따라 연습을 진행해보면, 영어 발음 교정에 큰 도움이 될 것입니다. 한 번씩 다양한 각도로 상황을 상상하며 연습해보세요.
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.
