1
I had just turned 22 when I finished my first semester of graduate school at the Iowa Writers' Workshop.
2
I was also taking classes in the printmaking program, ambitious young art-loving thing that I was.
3
I had flown from Iowa City to Chicago O'Hare, where I'd change planes and go home to Nashville for Christmas.
4
I had my Hermes 3000 typewriter with me, technically portable at 14 pounds, because I wrote stories.
5
I also had a shoulder bag of zinc plates, which I planned to engrave over the break.
6
Have you ever traveled with a bag of zinc plates?
7
They're a lot heavier than a typewriter.
8
In O'Hare, I got very, very lost.
9
I put my typewriter down, stood there lopsided, looking at my ticket, when a young man walked up and asked me if I needed help.
10
Time changes memory, but I remember him clearly.
11
He had on khaki pants and a pink Oxford shirt.
12
He had straight, sandy blonde hair and wire-rimmed glasses.
13
He looked like the young John Denver.
14
I gave him my ticket.
15
You are really lost, he said.
16
And then he took my extraordinarily heavy bag from my shoulder
17
and the typewriter from my hand and said he would walk me to my gate.
18
Side note, this was 1986.
19
I was shy and I was plain.
20
I was not the kind of girl whose typewriter was carried by men who look like John Denver.
21
And my heart expanded with the wonder.
22
Together, we traversed many concourses, and I began to worry about the time.
23
I said, he shouldn't risk missing his flight so that I could make mine.
24
That's when he told me he didn't have a flight.
25
I asked him if he worked in the airport, and he said, yeah, sort of.
26
He said he was a Hare Krishna.
27
What a beautiful world it was when you could still get lost in an airport,
28
when zinc plates sharp as meat cleavers filled your carry-ons, when Hare Krishnas, those dancing,
29
chanting members of a religious sect, roamed freely from gate to gate.
30
I was terrified. But of what?
31
That he'd kidnap me and make me a vegetarian?
32
I was already a vegetarian.
33
I had to keep walking with him because he had my typewriter, and I was in love with my typewriter.
34
In those days, there were no screens updating travelers as to departure times,
35
So I didn't know that my flight was two hours delayed until I reached the gate.
36
The Hare Krishna laid my burdens down and said he'd wait with me.
37
Would I have chosen to spend two hours in O'Hare with a Hare Krishna.
38
No. But I lacked the courage to bolt.
39
I decided that, given the circumstances, the only thing I could do was listen.
40
The ability to really listen to another person is an essential skill for a novelist.
41
It's an essential skill for all human beings.
42
And what the Hare Krishna told me was one of the most remarkable things I had ever heard in my life.
43
He said, imagine loving God so much
44
that you would be willing to stand in an airport all day so that you could tell people about God's love.
45
All day long, people rushed past him,
46
even after he had forsaken his traditional saffron robes to mitigate first impressions.
47
They buried their faces in their newspapers as soon as he started to speak,
48
and still he kept showing up because God's love was the greatest thing he had ever known,
49
and he wanted to share it.
50
When I finally made it home to Nashville, I told this story to everyone.
51
In fact, I told it for years.
52
Two hours in an airport with a Hare Krishna.
53
But as I got older, I could see myself becoming that Hare Krishna,
54
wanting to testify about the greatest love in my life, which is reading.
55
So great is my need to share this love that it outweighs my significant need for privacy.
56
I gave up printmaking when I left Iowa, but books have been my steadfast companions,
57
my solace, my teachers, my joy.
58
I can't imagine what life would be without reading.
59
And so pretty much every day, in every situation I find myself in, I'm out there sharing the good news.
60
For a long time, my love for books was more cloistered, less zealot.
61
But in 2011, all of that changed.
62
The two major bookstores in Nashville closed, and after waiting around for someone else to open a bookstore, I decided to do it myself.
63
This was not the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.
64
It was more like irritation.
65
People love to tell me that bookstores are dead,
66
that books themselves are hobbling towards the dust heap of cultural irrelevance.
67
Heresy, I say.
68
Books are the rock on which I built my church.
69
Like the Hare Krishna, I didn't do this because of what I needed.
70
I had books.
71
I would always have books.
72
I fought for books because you need them.
73
The summer before we opened Parnassus Books, I went on tour.
74
I've been going on tour regularly since 1992.
75
This one for a novel I wrote called State of Wonder was going to be my fact-finding mission.
76
I collected information from from all the booksellers I knew,
77
but the most valuable came from my friend Daniel Golden at Boswell Books in Milwaukee.
78
He told me people were desperate to buy anything that was hanging from the ceiling, which is true.
79
More importantly, he told me to put the children's section as far away from the front door as possible
80
so that when a child makes a break for it, you have the maximum opportunity to catch her.
81
Daniel talked a lot about the children's section, which was not a part of bookstores I knew much about.
82
If you want customers, he said, you have to raise them yourself. That made sense.
83
Small children coming to storytime, being read to, learning to read themselves, will grow up to be great customers.
84
Fifteen years later, I can attest that this is true.
85
We have raised up a raft of customers.
86
But over time, this charming bit of wisdom has changed.
87
I don't think of it as cultivating shoppers anymore.
88
I think of it as cultivating readers, and not just for the books I write or the books I sell,
89
but for all books.
90
I've come to believe that if you're interested in living in a society where people read, it's also your responsibility to cultivate readers.
91
What does that even mean?
92
Well, reading to children the same way people read to us,
93
you can buy books for children who are in Title I schools who might not have books of their own.
94
We do a lot of this at Parnassus.
95
You can speak out against book banning.
96
Because books are not the things endangering our children.
97
and speak up for teachers and librarians who are doing the jobs that they've been trained for.
98
Also, you can just read a book.
99
Do you wish that people read books instead of, say, constantly scrolling on their phones?
100
Then read books.
101
Do you want your children to be readers?
102
then model that behavior.
103
Of course you're going to read to them, but they also have to see you read.
104
Like all the people who told me not to open a bookstore, you may be wondering if books are even relevant in this golden age of technology.
105
Think of it this way.
106
Every piece of information coming out of your computer or phone is a single thread.
107
At any given moment, you are holding countless threads which range in quality from vital to worthless.
108
What a novelist does is takes all of those threads and weaves them into a tapestry.
109
Maidens, unicorns, pear trees.
110
This is no small job, but when it's done right, the outcome is both beautiful and enduring.
111
Novels teach us empathy by putting us into another person's life,
112
and they define our history by showing us how we've changed and will continue to change.
113
Think of Harriet Beecher Stowe.
114
Now, think of John Updike.
115
And if this wasn't reason enough to love books, they also help us develop and preserve of what I like to call a long-format brain.
116
The problems of the world cannot be seen one thread at a time, nor can they be solved.
117
The ability to think with depth and complexity is greatly enhanced by reading more than 280 characters at a time.
118
If you haven't read a novel in a while, it may feel strange at first, but stick with it.
119
What you put in is what you'll get back.
120
What surprised me most about owning a bookstore
121
and practically everything about it surprises me is that it's not just books people come in for.
122
Reading that solitary endeavor has proven to be a means of connection.
123
Our monthly book club at Parnassus is now so large, we've broken it into three sections.
124
We also have a classics book club and a romance book club, and once a year, those two groups come together to read a classic romance.
125
Most recently, Pride and Prejudice.
126
Our author events have ranged from Jeff Kenney to Percival Everett, to Barbara Kingsolver to RF Kuang, to Ina Garten to Bono.
127
And whether it's presidential histories or mysteries, What we see is that books give people the means by which to connect.
128
The conversations may start with books, but they go everywhere.
129
Reading shines the light that disrupts the dark isolation so many people find themselves in.
130
Go to your local bookstore and see what I'm talking about.
131
Every time I change planes in O'Hare, I think about the Hare Krishna,
132
a person I was afraid of, a person I had nothing in common with,
133
a person whose only intention was to help me,
134
both to find my gate and to find a force in the world greater than myself.
135
Through experience, we had both come to see that we were part of the larger human fabric.
136
He, through his faith, and me, through a different kind of faith.
137
Maybe this time we would sit at the gate a little bit longer, and I would ask him what he was reading.
138
I would tell him how much I admired the courage of his convictions.
139
I would thank him for helping me find my way.

이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 하는 이유
이 비디오는 Ann Patchett의 TED 강연을 바탕으로 한 이야기입니다. 이 영상은 일상적인 상황에서의 대화, 감정 표현, 그리고 소통의 중요성을 강조합니다. 영어를 배우는 데 있어, 다양한 주제를 다루는 실제 이야기를 통해 말하기 연습을 하는 것은 매우 유용합니다. 특히, 영어 쉐도잉을 활용하여 발음을 개선하고 자연스러운 억양을 익힐 수 있습니다. 이 비디오를 통해 배우는 인사이트는 IELTS 스피킹 준비에도 효과적입니다. Patchett의 솔직한 이야기와 감정 표현 방식을 모방하면서 자신의 영어 능력을 한 단계 끌어올릴 수 있습니다.
문맥 속의 문법 및 표현
Patchett는 이야기 속에 여러 중요한 표현 구조를 사용했습니다. 이들 중 일부를 분석해보면:
- “I was terrified. But of what?” - 이 표현은 감정의 불확실성을 보여줍니다. 감정 상태를 영어로 표현하는 좋은 예입니다.
- “Would I have chosen to spend two hours...” - 가정문을 활용하여 개인의 선택에 대한 이야기를 전개합니다. 이러한 구조는 자신의 생각이나 의견을 제시하는 데 유용합니다.
- “He kept showing up because...” - 이유를 설명하는 방식으로, 이유절과 결과절의 연결을 통해 말하기 능력을 향상시킬 수 있습니다.
일반적인 발음 문제
비디오에서 Patchett의 발음을 따라하며 연습할 때 주의해야 할 몇 가지 단어와 억양이 있습니다:
- “airport” (공항) - 발음할 때 'aer' 부분이 부드럽게 연결되는지 확인하세요.
- “vegetarian” (채식주의자) - 중간의 'ge' 부분에서의 발음이 쉽게 틀어질 수 있습니다. 혀의 위치에 유의하세요.
- “Hare Krishna” - 간결하게 발음하는 것이 중요합니다. 특히 'Hare' 부분의 강세를 조절하여 자연스럽게 연습하세요.
비디오를 반복적으로 듣고, shadowspeaks를 활용하여 자신의 음성을 녹음해보세요. 이를 통해 영어 발음 교정에 효과를 볼 수 있습니다. 연습을 반복하면 자연스럽게 자신감 있는 발음을 얻게 될 것입니다.
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.
