쉐도잉 연습: Pathways - Unit 1: Living for Work (PartA) - The Interview with Annie Griffiths - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

Welcome back, viewers.

I'm your host, Ray Bellows.

Today, we have the opportunity to talk with Annie Griffiths.

She's a photographer for the National Geographic Society, and she travels the world to places such as Africa,

Australia, the Middle East, and North and South America.

The photos you'll see throughout the interview were all taken by Annie.

Sometimes her work takes her to dangerous places like on top of mountains, under the water or in jungles,

but she says her experiences in places where there are wars going on are more frightening than any wild animals

or faraway places.

Welcome to the show, Annie.

Thank you, Ray.

I'm glad to be here.

Now, you travel a lot.

What's your favorite part of the world?

Well, I love Southern Africa.

I like the energy of the people and the wildlife.

I also love the Galapagos Islands and Mexico.

You know, actually, I love so many places that it's hard to choose a favorite.

I can understand that.

And why do you like to travel and explore the world so much?

Oh, I love to travel because it allows me to learn about different cultures and, you know, different views of the world.

I spend most of my time with ordinary people and I get to experience how people in different places live their lives.

I also love taking pictures of wildlife and landscapes.

Well, your job really is an adventure.

My job keeps me sitting in this room day after a day.

Now, I've read that you've traveled with your children.

Why did you take them with you?

Oh, I took my children along on my travels for many reasons.

My assignments were often two or three months long, and I couldn't bear to be away from them for so long.

Also, I wanted them to be able to see the world themselves.

They have become great travelers and have a great perspective now on the world.

What was their favorite place?

My children loved the Middle East.

They had so much fun being part of the Bedouin community there.

They rode camels and donkeys and learned to milk goats.

They also loved Australia because they got to go to the beach almost every day.

Those do sound like wonderful experiences, but how do you communicate with people in so many places?

Say, if you don't speak the language, for example, how do you make friends?

I think the key is to get over my own shyness.

I start, you know, by smiling and talking to people, even if I don't know the local language,

I'll gesture or smile and be a little silly so that people feel more relaxed around me.

And that helps you to get your amazing pictures, I'm sure.

So, what advice do you have for someone who wants to become a photographer?

Do they need any special skills?

I actually think the most important thing a photographer needs is curiosity.

You've got to wake up every morning wanting to experience something new or learn more about something familiar.

It's also important to love being creative and to enjoy seeing things in new ways.

That makes sense.

Viewers, does that sound like you?

Could you be a photographer?

Okay, one last question, Annie.

What's your favorite photo and what's the story behind it?

My favorite photo is of a man standing on top of Victoria Falls in Zambia.

The light is so beautiful

and it brings back memories of an unforgettable day at one of the most amazing places on earth.

That is a beautiful photo.

It's one of my favorites, too.

Well, that's all the time we have.

Thanks very much for being here today, Annie.

No problem.

Nice talking to you, Ray.

Thank you.

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.
