1
I'm on the go again.
2
I'm Joseph.
3
This is Input English.
4
I'm at a county park and there'll be a lot to show you.
5
You might wonder why I go to parks like this.
6
Of course, I enjoy the atmosphere and it allows me to create an informal atmosphere for you.
7
This is not didactic learning of grammar and vocabulary.
8
Hopefully you're not studying anything.
9
But if you listen, listen carefully to what I'm saying,
10
and if you understand what I'm trying to communicate,
11
then you will absorb the language.
12
This is a magnificent way to overcome the barriers in language learning.
13
Our brain is actually designed for this approach.
14
Our brain is not designed to absorb boring rules of grammar and memorize long lists of vocabulary.
15
My experience over decades tells me that that traditional method simply doesn't work.
16
but listening to clearly spoken language that's a little slower does work.
17
So welcome to this episode.
18
In the United States we have lots of different kinds of parks.
19
We have national parks.
20
They are run by the U.S federal government.
21
The next level down is the state park and that's run by each of the 50 states.
22
Here in California we have many state parks.
23
This is not one of them.
24
The next tier down from the state park would be a county park and then indeed there are also city parks.
25
This is a county park.
26
We are in Santa Cruz County.
27
We're on the Pacific Coast.
28
I'm up on the top of a cliff.
29
I'm up on a bluff and I can look down and see the Pacific Ocean below me.
30
So here is the Pacific Coast.
31
As you can see, I'm up on the cliff at the top of the cliff looking down at the surf.
32
The surf is breaking on the beach.
33
There's no obvious way to get down to the beach.
34
However, I did my homework.
35
I did a little research and I have some information.
36
We should be able to get down to the beach.
37
This county park in Santa Cruz County is called greyhound rock.
38
Why would we call something greyhound rock?
39
Perhaps there's a grey rock down there.
40
Indeed.
41
It's a descriptive term.
42
It was a name applied to a monolith,
43
a big piece of stone in the ocean.
44
And when you see its shape, you'll understand the name.
45
So I'm going to walk from here down toward the beach and hopefully get you up close and personal with Greyhound Rock.
46
You might notice that I'm wearing a different hat.
47
That's because it's very windy here.
48
This hat has a better fit to be less likely to blow off.
49
My Panama hat has a large rim that would catch the wind
50
and it doesn't fit tightly enough that I would be secure that I would not lose it.
51
So I'm wearing this hat today because it's less likely to blow off.
52
It also has a feature that may be useful.
53
It has a chin strap.
54
I consider a chin strap on a hat like this a bit of a fashion What's that?
55
A fashion crime is a casual expression that refers to some style that one is displaying that is not in fashion,
56
is not satisfactory.
57
So I think that wearing a chin strap on this hat would be a fashion crime.
58
It's a lighthearted expression.
59
No real crime is being spoken of.
60
Here's our first glimpse here on the trail of Greyhound Rock.
61
Greyhound Rock, you could construe,
62
is shaped a bit like a dog laying on the floor.
63
It's longer than it is wide.
64
So someone decided that that should be called Greyhound Rock.
65
The trail is amazingly good.
66
Compared to my most recent hike in this area, this trail is amazing.
67
It is paved with asphalt.
68
It's a little uneven.
69
There are areas where the asphalt has been damaged or destroyed.
70
But in general, this is a very satisfactory hiking trail.
71
One could almost bring someone down here in a wheelchair.
72
I don't recommend that.
73
It's a little too steep for that.
74
But they have put effort into making this accessible for people.
75
People could easily bring their family down here.
76
This trail is not dangerous.
77
From this vantage point, you can see the beach.
78
We're quite a bit lower than we were.
79
I was up on the bluff to the left when I started this video,
80
and now I'm getting down close to the beach.
81
I made it down to the beach.
82
It was not difficult at all.
83
There are very few people here.
84
I'm here on a Thursday around noontime.
85
Sometimes when you go to the beach,
86
you might want to time your visit based on the tide.
87
The level of the ocean rises and falls,
88
and there are charts, there are ways of looking up whether it will be low tide or high tide.
89
Looking at the vegetation on the beach and the way the waves are breaking,
90
this does not appear to be low tide
91
because the waves are coming up nearly to the level that the vegetation is deposited it.
92
As you look here, you can see the waves are breaking on the beach
93
and the vegetation that was deposited at the recent high tide is only slightly further up on the beach.
94
Based on that, I believe it's nearly high tide.
95
It's certainly not low tide.
96
That's important here because of a feature in this park.
97
I will show you.
98
This was part of the trail that I did not come down.
99
You can see that the hillside has eroded and the trail is falling apart.
100
That handrail has collapsed down toward the ocean.
101
Above this level, an informal trail has developed
102
and people have walked on this smaller trail to get down here to the ocean.
103
It looks like the county government will need to do some repairs to this trail if it's going to be usable.
104
Here you can see the hillside.
105
It is heavily eroded.
106
My scientific training is not strong in geology.
107
I've always been interested in geology,
108
but I did not take a lot of courses and develop much expertise in geology.
109
In the United States, if someone is interested in geology as a hobbyist,
110
they might collect stones.
111
They might collect interesting stones.
112
And someone who does that as a hobby in the United States is called a rock hound.
113
I went through a phase when I was a teenager that I was a bit of a rock hound.
114
When we traveled on summer vacations,
115
we would collect a lot of stones.
116
But we didn't do so as scientists.
117
We didn't do so with a great deal of expertise.
118
We did so as hobbyist enthusiasts.
119
So the house where I grew up actually had stones that we brought home from all over the country,
120
and they were used as decorations in the garden.
121
When we sold that family house,
122
those stones conveyed with the house.
123
The new owner has custody of those stones
124
that we laboriously collected from all over the United States and Canada to decorate that yard.
125
Now we are down at the level of Greyhound Rock.
126
The reason I was talking about the tide is you can see
127
that the water between the beach and Greyhound Rock is not very deep.
128
It would be easy to understand that if the tide were to go out and the water level were to drop,
129
that it would be easy to walk out to Greyhound Rock.
130
If you tried to do that today,
131
you would get rather wet.
132
However, when the tide is low,
133
I think that is a very realistic goal.
134
This material here on the beach is the remnant of mollusks,
135
which have washed up on the shore and died.
136
This is all that remains of them.
137
This is a more recent arrival that has not decayed yet.
138
A moment ago I referred to these as mollusks,
139
but I did not feel right about that.
140
I was not certain that they were mollusks.
141
Unfortunately, that was a guess, and I guessed wrong.
142
These are cnidarians.
143
They're more closely related to jellyfish.
144
and the specific organism that washed up here is called by the wind sailor.
145
It floats on the surface of the ocean,
146
feeds on small marine animals,
147
but these met their demise by washing up on the shore,
148
being stranded on the shore,
149
and dying in the sun.
150
These are related to jellyfish.
151
This is the view to the north.
152
It's an absolutely gorgeous view on the Pacific coast.
153
In the distance, the land projects out into the ocean,
154
and that is the state park, Año Nuevo State Park.
155
I made a video at that location last year.
156
Today on the Pacific Coast,
157
it's a windy and cold day.
158
I'm glad I brought a jacket and I'm glad I brought a hat.
159
When I was growing up,
160
we didn't put much emphasis on sun protection.
161
Solar protection is important because human skin exposed to the UV rays of the sun can be damaged.
162
Sun exposure can give us risk of several different types of skin cancer
163
and can cause a lot of changes in the skin that we associate with aging.
164
When I went on scuba diving trips,
165
it quickly became clear that I needed solar protection because we were exposed to the sun during our surface intervals.
166
And without sun protection we would all be badly burned.
167
One of the things I noticed as I applied sunscreen was that they were frequently very irritating.
168
They were irritating to my skin.
169
So as I'm trying to be responsible and apply sun protection,
170
I've had a difficult time finding sunscreens that suit me.
171
There's no easy answer.
172
It's trial and error.
173
In general, the sunscreens that are mineral-based are less irritating,
174
but that's not a certainty.
175
The sunscreens that I have used that have chemical filters rather than mineral filters seem to be more irritating to me.
176
From this vantage point, one can see Greyhound Rock here in the foreground.
177
And then as I pan around to the left,
178
you can see the beach and how it extends on to the south.
179
The direction you're looking right now is to the south.
180
In the United States, we have a lot of coastal locations where people can visit the ocean.
181
These beaches and coastal locations around the country are very different.
182
I grew up on the East Coast and spent a lot of time in Florida.
183
The beaches in Florida could be the Atlantic Coast,
184
the Gulf Coast, or the Florida Keys.
185
The Atlantic Coast of the United States and Florida tends to have bigger waves like this,
186
and the water may be a little cooler.
187
Conditions obviously vary based on the weather,
188
but we think in terms of the bigger waves on the East Coast being from the Atlantic Ocean.
189
In contrast, if you go to the Gulf of Mexico,
190
the waves are much smaller most of the time,
191
and the water is usually warmer.
192
If you go further down to the tip of Florida,
193
to the Florida Keys, the water tends to be very warm and the waves not very large.
194
You could say that the Florida Keys are rather Caribbean.
195
The atmosphere in the Florida Keys suggests the Caribbean rather than the rest of Florida.
196
When I arrived in California,
197
I had a preformed idea that perhaps I would go swimming in the Pacific Ocean.
198
That idea was very short lived because the Pacific Ocean in California is very cold.
199
I have never gone swimming in this Pacific Ocean because it's too cold.
200
I did go scuba diving in Monterey Bay.
201
That was with several layers of wetsuit,
202
and it was still uncomfortably cold.
203
If you look at the map of the United States,
204
you can see that population centers tend to gather around or near water.
205
Certainly there are large cities inland,
206
but the population disproportionately concentrates near the water.
207
My wife used to say that she really needed to live close to the water.
208
She had no intention of living far inland.
209
When one comes here to the beach and sees this natural beauty,
210
you can feel that draw of the ocean.
211
It's very inviting.
212
I hope you enjoyed this short video.

연습 팁
이 비디오의 속도와 톤에 맞춰 shadowspeak 기법을 활용하여 연습하는 것이 중요합니다. Joseph의 말은 조금 느린 속도로 진행되어, 초보자도 쉽게 따라할 수 있습니다. 다음의 방법들로 연습해보세요:
- 비디오를 여러 번 반복해서 듣기: 한 번 듣고 이해하기 어렵다면, 여러 번 반복하여 듣고 각각의 표현을 익히세요.
- 따라 말하기: Joseph의 발음과 억양을 주의 깊게 듣고, 직접 따라 말해보세요. 영어 쉐도잉은 발음 및 유창성을 향상시킵니다.
- 중요한 구문 찾기: 주요 어휘와 구문을 노트에 적어, 반복적으로 사용해보세요. 이를 통해 IELTS 스피킹과 같이 실제 대화에서 사용할 수 있는 표현력을 키울 수 있습니다.
- 자연환경을 경험하기: 가능한 한 자연 속에서 영어로 대화할 수 있도록 시도해 보세요. 자연의 배경은 영어를 배우는 즐거움과 동기를 높여줍니다.
이와 같은 방법을 통해 영어 말하기 능력을 발전시키고, 자신감을 얻어 보세요!
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.
