Reviewer: Mirjana Čutura Good afternoon, everybody.
2
I am April.
3
Eight years ago, I got the biggest and best present ever, of my life.
4
After reading me books every night since I was about two, my mom opened a children's bookstore.
5
I still remember the day I stepped into the warm, lovely place, sunshine glowing on the bookshelves, and I smelled the scent of books.
6
And I still remember the happy moment my mom held me in her arms and read me a book.
7
"In an old house in Paris That was covered with vines, Lived twelve little girls In two straight lines." Time passed, and I grew from a little kid who was often mistaken for a boy to a big girl standing in front of you on this stage.
8
However, the love of reading has been kept unchanged, except that I don't suck my fingers anymore while I'm reading.
9
Having the freedom to read and the freedom to choose is one of the best gifts my mom ever gave me.
10
Although running a bookstore is not always a good choice for making money, mom never regrets quitting her high-salary job and devoting herself to the small bookstore.
11
She is very proud of her work, that brings a passion for reading to me and other children.
12
Surrounded by books, I am enthusiastic about reading.
13
I bring a book with me wherever I go.
14
I read in restaurants while I'm waiting for a meal.
15
I read in the metro on my way to school.
16
I read every night before I go to sleep.
17
To read is to voyage through time, to visit places you would never otherwise know, to experience a world of imagination, adventure, and discovery.
18
Take Alice in Wonderland as an example.
19
When I read that book, I fell with Alice into her Wonderland.
20
It's so weird, so visual.
21
There, rabbits can talk, playing cards can watch, and cats can vanish at will.
22
As I read that book, my mind kept wanting to return to Wonderland and experience all this nonsense again.
23
So I drew this picture.
24
I drew the Cheshire Cat, the Caterpillar on the giant mushroom, and the girl.
25
I didn't know if the girl was Alice or myself.
26
I was too young when I drew that picture, but I really wished that I could've lived inside that book.
27
So you can see in the book, bored Alice followed a rabbit and tumbled down to Wonderland, whereas in the real world, a book can always lead you to escape the boredom of everyday life and enter a magic world.
28
For example, we can take the Magic School Bus to explore the human body, or we can escape into nature by reading Fabre's Book of Insects.
29
We can even travel back to ancient Greece or Rome in the series of Horrible Histories.
30
With a book, we can go anywhere and be anything.
31
Reading is also a good way for us to connect with others.
32
It's amazing how when you're reading a book on a train, a stranger next to you says, "Hey, I love that book too." This is a true story between me and Yoyo.
33
We then immediately started a discussion about characters in that book.
34
Yoyo's mom and my mom also found that they had a lot in common.
35
Last year, our families took a trip to Singapore together.
36
This is us on our first day in Singapore.
37
We went to a big bookstore and spent half a day there.
38
This is not the only story.
39
When I share fun "Did you know?" book facts with my friends or help other readers my age find the book that's just right for them, we build up relationships and get to know each other better.
40
Also, I believe that when parents read to their children, it brings back good memories from their own childhood.
41
This is a strong relationship that can get rid of gaps in between generations.
42
Another amazing thing about reading is, when you're reading, in a way, you're engaging in a conversation with the author.
43
One of the authors I admire very much is Bill Bryson, who is humorous and witty.
44
When reading his great book "A Short History of Nearly Everything," I feel like I'm accompanying the author as he travels through space and time, from the Big Bang to the rise of civilization.
45
His deep curiosity of the world we live in and encyclopedic knowledge of these topics impressed and touched me.
46
Another beloved author is Roald Dahl, whose hilarious, breathtaking books are so attractive that I don't even want the story to end.
47
I have read all of his books for children, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, The BFG, and many others.
48
When asked in an interview, "How do you get your story ideas?" the author answered, "I always start with a little seed of idea, a little germ.
49
Every time I get a great idea, I would pull out a notebook and write it down, or else it would disappear like a dream." These tips helped me a lot when I first started writing.
50
I use my idea notebook to write down my seeds of ideas.
51
And in the stories of The Minpins, Roald Dahl told us, "Watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places." I was inspired when I read this.
52
I've taken it as advice not only from the great author but also from a wise man who had a keep insight into our world.
53
Just like Roald Dahl's character the BFG, Big Friendly Giant, whose job was to collect and blow pleasant dreams to small children, Roald Dahl, Bill Bryson, Sheldon Allan Silverstein, Dr. Seuss, and other writers, they had blown big dreams to me and every other reader.
54
I dreamed that, one day, I can make magic of my own as an author, for myself, my friends, my kids, and other children.
55
Here, I want to share a poem I wrote on a kite I made in an art class.
56
Soaring above us like a bird Is a big, amazing kite.
57
The wind is howling, Making it dance.
58
What a beautiful sight!
59
Yes, what a beautiful sight.
60
But I know making this dream come true will be a very long and slow process.
61
I will keep on reading and writing every day and, above all, keep watching with glittering eyes the whole world around me, just like Roald Dahl.
62
And there's one thing I know for sure: reading will be a life-long love for me.
63
I read because loving one life is just not enough.
64
Today I stand here to share my reading stories with you because I believe that reading can light up the whole world.
65
So, why not surround yourself with books, sit down quietly, and enjoy the words, the pictures, and how they fit together so beautifully.
66
As an end of my speech, I would like to recite one of my favorite poems.
67
"No one believes a whole book Could ever come From something as simple as butterflies, That don't even live that long.
68
But on paper, things can live forever.
69
On paper, a butterfly never dies." Thank you.
70
(Applause)

인기 동영상

왜 이 비디오로 말하기 연습을 해야 할까요?

읽기의 힘을 강조하는 이 영상은 영어 회화 연습에 매우 유용합니다. April Qu는 독서가 어떻게 개인의 상상력과 창의력을 키우는지에 대해 이야기하면서 말하기의 맥락을 제공하고 있습니다. 그녀의 경험담을 통해 우리는 어떻게 영어를 사용하여 일상적인 이야기를 나누고, 깊은 감정을 표현할 수 있는지를 배울 수 있습니다. 영어 쉐도잉 기술을 활용하여 그녀의 발음을 따라 해보세요. 이는 영어 발음 교정과 함께 스크립트에 담긴 어휘를 이해하는 데 큰 도움이 됩니다. 또한, 다른 사람들과의 대화를 통해 더 나은 대화 능력을 기를 수 있습니다.

문맥 속 문법 및 표현

April의 강연에서는 여러 가지 유용한 문장 구조와 표현이 사용됩니다. 여기서는 그 중 3가지 주요 구조를 분석해 보겠습니다:

  • “I remember the day…” - 과거의 특정 사건을 회상할 때 사용되는 표현으로, 자신이 어떤 것을 경험했는지 공유하는 데 유용합니다.
  • “Having the freedom to read…” - 현재 분사 구조를 사용하여 배경 정보나 이유를 제시할 때 유용한 표현입니다.
  • “It’s amazing how…” - 놀라운 사실이나 경험을 강조할 때 사용하는 표현으로, 다른 사람들에게 자신의 감정을 전달하는 데 도움이 됩니다.

이러한 구조를 활용하여 자신의 경험이나 감정을 표현하며, IELTS 스피킹 시험 대비에도 효과적입니다.

자주 틀리는 발음 및 억양

이 영상에서 주목해야 할 발음 트랩이 몇 가지 있습니다. 특히 'wonderland'와 같은 단어는 빠르게 발음할 때 흔히 놓치는 경우가 많습니다. 'wonder'의 'w' 발음과 'land'의 'l' 발음이 잘 연결되어야 자연스럽게 들립니다. 또 다른 예는 'adventure'로, 중간의 'd'와 't' 소리가 명확하지 않으면 출력이 부자연스러워질 수 있습니다. 영상을 함께 보며 올바른 억양과 발음을 연습하면 영어 회화 연습에 큰 도움이 됩니다.

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.
