1
Today I'm with ZSL, the Zoological Society of London, as they carry out their annual census of seals on the Thames.
2
Now unfortunately the best way to do that is by using one of these.
3
Hello, Theo.
4
- Hi, Andy.
5
Hi there.
6
Come on in.
7
Thank you, sir.
8
See, I see a map of the Thames estuary here.
9
Is that where we're going to go today?
10
Yeah, so Andy's going to take us up over the Thames, over the sand banks and the coastline, and we're going to check out how many seals we can see.
11
Now Andy, I understand you've been flying this part of the world for 20 years.
12
And in that 20 years, you've seen the seals the whole time?
13
Yeah, I have.
14
I think it came as a surprise to everybody that there were so many in the estuary.
15
But of course you live around here, do you think most of the population know about the seals on their doorstep?
16
Most people do not know there's any seals out there at all.
17
And of course the $64 ,000 question, will we see some today?
18
Previously when doing these kinds of surveys we've seen good numbers and we're doing this survey at the right time of year.
19
So fingers crossed, we'll see plenty today.
20
Let's go spot some seals.
21
We head out to Margate Sands looking for grey and harbour seals.
22
I must not go to sand over there, so it's whatever the one is next to it.
23
It's not long before we spot our first group of seals.
24
I think I can see some seals on the end of this picture anyway.
25
Right on that bend there, there's maybe about ten seals.
26
Wonderful.
27
Real variation in colour as well.
28
Thea takes pictures of the seals to analyse later.
29
And I'm using a GPS unit to help identify where each group is found.
30
- What's your weight point?
31
- Weight point 224.
32
I counted 19 seals there.
33
They all look like harbour seals.
34
This is cutting edge conservation work on seals and it doesn't really get much more exciting than this.
35
The seals are coming up again.
36
- It's well there, some pups, beer.
37
Back on the ground and Thea is already analysing the results.
38
After each survey, we take all the photos and we go through them all, identify the species for each bank or point on the coastline.
39
And we come together to ensure that if there's any discrepancy between number or species ID, then we work that out together and make sure that we've got as close to an accurate count.
40
as we possibly can.
41
What more can you tell from just that picture alone?
42
We look at each individual seal and we look for features that indicate what the species is.
43
So for a harbour seal, For example, Generally you'd see the eyes on the front of the head and a shorter snout,
44
whereas for a grey seal you'd see usually like they call it a Roman nose, so it's sloping, the eyes further back and to the side.
45
And that's a harborsie, a much more dog -like with funny little nostrils and angle as well.
46
Since ZSL began monitoring the sales six years ago, numbers have doubled.
47
with an estimated 3 ,500 of them living in the Thames.
48
We take the increase in seals that we're seeing as a positive sign of the health of the ecosystem.
49
We should be very proud of the Thames, it's incredibly biodiverse, it is full of life.
50
It's not just brown, underneath there is plenty of fish and all sorts of other exciting species.
51
What's particularly exciting is the harbour seals are actually breeding in the Thames estuary.
52
first ever pup count.
53
We recorded 138 pups which is great news.
54
There was a survey back in 2011 by the Sea Mammal Research Unit
55
and they recorded in the region of 40 pups So that does suggest an increase.
56
It's strong evidence that obviously the Thames is a breeding site for these animals.
57
The river has come a long way from 60 years ago, when it was declared biologically dead.
58
London and the Thames at Wandsworth illustrates a quaint facet of the river pollution.
59
It seems a nationwide demand for clean rivers is the only hope.
60
We're much more careful about what goes into our river, so Sewage treatment works as an example of that.
61
And we really have come a long way.
62
That's why we see all this life, but that's not to say we don't still have some way to go.
63
to keep maintaining this trajectory of a healthier Thames.
64
Pfff.
65
The cleaner water is providing fish for the seals, which are now being spotted across the capital.
66
How far are we seeing seals moving up the towns?
67
- So we're seeing them go all the way up until the tidal limit in Teddington.
68
So they're traveling all through central London
69
and there are kind of hotspots around London where people see them
70
and they are generally where you get a higher footfall or you have taller buildings.
71
So Canary Wharf is known for a bit of a hot spot for spotting seals.
72
And people having interactions with them as well.
73
Yeah, there are some interesting videos that have popped up of them climbing aboard the front of a kayak or a canoe.
74
We don't know necessarily where this behavior comes from, but they're curious and inquisitive and highly intelligent animals.
75
But it's not just seals that are turning up in the Thames.
76
There have been recent reports I've harbored porpoise.
77
Dolphins and even seahorses as well.
78
But perhaps most astonishingly, in 2018, Benny turned up.
79
The first ever beluga whale in British waters was found just down there.
80
Amen.
81
Oh The whale, nicknamed Benny the Beluga, living in a stretch of the Thames, may be able to survive there, according to experts.
82
Our very own wildlife cameraman Russell Savory was lucky enough to capture these shots of the beluga.
83
Cruise ships, the bulk carriers and things were going up and down the Thames and this beluga just bobbing around there.
84
Obviously fishing I guess but to be able to get a beluga in the Thames, it's just unreal.
85
while undoubtedly the best way to sense the seals is from the air.
86
If you want to get up close and personal, you're going to need another form of transport.
87
I want a boat.
88
We never used to see them, but over the last ten years they've started off from about six seals, and now they've just gradually got more and more seals around the coast.
89
Where we go, six seals are now 120.
90
Stuart Barnes runs sail tours on his boat along the Thames estuary.
91
Hopefully I can get you in the region of about 10 to 15 metres.
92
Yeah, let's go do it.
93
Ten minutes from Grumsgate Harbor and a magical sight awaits us.
94
These are all harbour sales, getting the most wonderful views.
95
The thing that I'm amazed by is the colour variation.
96
Some are black, some are grey, some are blonde, some are ginger, some are variegated and spotted all over.
97
And there's a few youngsters that were obviously born maybe five, six, seven weeks ago, just on the water's edge.
98
It just goes to show the Greater Thames Estuary is in pretty good mig.
99
We won't know the results from this year's SEAL survey for a few months.
100
But from what we've seen, the population here is thriving.
101
And so, is the Mother Thames.

이 비디오로 배울 영어 회화 실력

이 영상을 통해 영어 회화 연습에 필수적인 두 가지 실력을 키울 수 있습니다. 첫째, 자연스러운 대화에서의 정보 전달 방식을 배우고, 둘째, 전문 용어와 일상 표현을 섞어 사용하는 법을 익힐 수 있습니다. 예를 들어 "annual census"처럼 전문적인 표현과 "fingers crossed" 같은 구어체를 함께 사용하는 것을 관찰하며, IELTS 스피킹에서 요구되는 다양한 표현 능력을 기르세요.

들어야 할 연결 발음과 축약형

영어 발음 교정에 도움이 되는 연결 발음과 축약형이 이 대화에 많습니다. "come on in"에서 "come on"이 /kʌm ɑn/이 아니라 /kʌmɑn/으로 연결되고, "it's not just"는 /ɪts nɑt dʒʌst/가 아니라 /ɪts nɑdʒʌst/로 축약됩니다. 또한 "plenty of"는 /plenti ʌv/가 아닌 /plentiəv/로 발음되어 연결됩니다. 이런 소리 변화를 주의깊게 듣고, shadow speech로 연습해보세요.

원어민처럼 말하는 법: 리듬과 강세

원어민처럼 말하려면 리듬과 강세를 따라하는 것이 중요합니다. 이 비디오에서 화자들은 "incredibly biodiverse"에서 "incredibly"를 강조하고, "full of life"에서 "full"에 강세를 둡니다. 또한 "the $64,000 question"이라는 구에서 "64,000"을 강조하여 중요성을 나타냅니다. 이런 강세 패턴을 관찰하고, 자신의 목소리로 따라해보세요. 유튜브 영어 공부를 할 때 이렇게 실제 대화의 리듬을 분석하면, 영어 회화 실력이 빠르게 향상됩니다. 특히 IELTS 스피킹 준비에 도움이 될 것입니다.

이 비디오는 영어 학습뿐만 아니라 Thames 강의 생태계에 대한 흥미로운 정보도 제공합니다. 대화를 듣고, 발음과 리듬을 분석하며, shadow speech로 연습하다 보면 자연스럽게 영어 실력이 향상될 것입니다. 계속해서 유튜브 영어 공부를 하며, 다양한 대화를 분석하고 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.
