1
Do you ever think that your disability somehow could be an advantage in a competition like this
2
or just in cooking in general?
3
Yes, chef.
4
Please excuse my chewing.
5
Yes, it is.
6
Because I can't see, I won't be worrying about what other people are doing.
7
I love the fact that you're tasting everything.
8
I have to.
9
I can't see.
10
I'm Christine from Houston, Texas, and I'm a graduate student.
11
My husband's here supporting me.
12
He's my biggest fan.
13
I love food.
14
I love eating it.
15
I love creating it.
16
I feel like regardless of what your background is, your gender, your religion, food is something everybody has in common in this world,
17
and so I think food is what connects people together.
18
I'm definitely a competitive person.
19
I really want to get this apron.
20
I am here for a reason.
21
I'm supposed to be graduating in school, but I've set aside my thesis to get an apron and become the next MasterChef.
22
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
23
Um, welcome.
24
Thank you.
25
Um, first name is?
26
My name is Christine.
27
Christine, in the history of MasterChef, we've never had a blind contestant.
28
Welcome.
29
Thank you.
30
Thank you, Chef.
31
The gentleman with you.
32
That's my husband.
33
His name is John.
34
Right.
35
Great.
36
What are you cooking?
37
I'm cooking Vietnamese comfort food.
38
It's a catfish braised in a clay pot, and I pickled vegetables to go with it and some rice.
39
Okay.
40
Okay.
41
Christine, you've got five minutes to complete that dish.
42
Thank you.
43
Just in front.
44
Just in front?
45
No, you were there.
46
Just a little bit higher, darling.
47
Okay, thank you.
48
There we are.
49
Thank you.
50
Christine?
51
Yes, chef?
52
Were you born blind?
53
No, no, chef.
54
When I was, maybe about ten years ago, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that affected my nerves,
55
my spinal cord and my optic nerves, and so I lost my vision gradually over the past ten years.
56
In your mind, you're visualizing what you put on a plate.
57
Yes, that's correct.
58
You know, I felt the plate and things like that before, and a lot of it is obvious by memory.
59
Do you ever think that your disability somehow could be an advantage in a competition like this
60
or just in cooking in general?
61
Yes, chef.
62
Please excuse my chewing.
63
Yes, it is.
64
Because I can't see, I won't be worrying about what other people are doing.
65
I love the fact that you're tasting everything.
66
I have to.
67
I can't see.
68
One of my teaching methods with young chefs today is that we put a blindfold on them and they understand the texture,
69
the taste, which is accelerated quicker when your eyes are closed and you're concentrating purely on the senses.
70
Yes, correct, chef.
71
I'm gonna do it.
72
My rice did not turn out to par, so I'm not serving it to you.
73
Okay, I guess I'm done.
74
Thank you.
75
The catfish, how did you cook it?
76
With some caramel that I made by just caramelizing sugar on the stove and using coconut soda as well.
77
And with shallots and garlic.
78
And the base of the broth is made up of what?
79
Fish sauce.
80
I love the fact that you kept the fish on the bone.
81
Why?
82
Catfish is just, it's really tender and I didn't want to pick it apart and make it look unappetizing, so I left it as a steak.
83
I think it looks more appealing and that's just the way Vietnamese people eat.
84
You know, you're gonna be judged like everybody else in this competition.
85
Yes, chef.
86
Um, the dish does need the sort of stability.
87
It's a staple done beautifully, but missing the rice.
88
Yes, chef, I understand.
89
I'm sorry.
90
Thank you.
91
Thank you.
92
So, what's the idea behind cooking it in the clay pot?
93
It's supposed to aid with the, uh, quicker caramelization and braising of the, uh, product you put inside, chef.
94
Okay.
95
It's got a beautiful aroma.
96
Thank you, chef.
97
Okay.
98
Well, thank you so much.
99
Thank you, Chef.
100
Hi.
101
Hi, sir.
102
I'm Joe, obviously.
103
I've heard you give mean looks, but luckily I can't see it.
104
You have a great advantage.
105
As you talk about your food, not only are you able to express it in words, but your face speaks volumes.
106
Yes.
107
Your eyes beam with happiness and pride and passion.
108
And you have a lot to be proud of.
109
Thank you, sir.
110
It's an amazing, amazing accomplishment.
111
Thank you, sir.
112
Okay.
113
Joe, yes or no?
114
100% yes.
115
Thank you, sir.
116
Graham, yes or no?
117
Um, everybody has a story and has things that they have to overcome.
118
Judge solely on that dish.
119
Yes, chef.
120
I'm a yes.
121
Oh, God.
122
Thank you, chef.
123
Your personal challenge aside, for me, that's one of the most delicious dishes I've tasted in this competition so far.
124
Do you know what I'm gonna give you?
125
A white apron.
126
A white apron.
127
Congratulations.
128
Thank you.
129
I'll come and get it.
130
Congratulations.
131
Thank you so much.
132
I mean, really, good job.
133
Thank you.
134
Well done.
135
Thank you.
136
Wow.
137
I'm so touched that they all complimented me on my food and they believed in me so I feel ecstatic.
138
For everyone in America, you can overcome anything you want to overcome
139
and get what you want to get and I'm going to be the next MasterChef.

Grammatica in deze video

De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:

StructuurIn de video
Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog teltI've set · we've never had · I've heard
Lijdende vorm be + voltooid deelwoord — het gaat om wat er gebeurt, niet om wie het doetwas diagnosed · is accelerated · is made

Uitspraak om op te letten

De spreker gebruikt 36 samentrekkingen en verkorte vormen, zoals I'm, can't, you're. Spreek ze kort uit, zoals je ze hoort.

  • De klanken “sh” en “zh”: chef /ʃɛf/, dish /dɪʃ/, catfish /ˈkætfɪʃ/, shallot /ˈʃælət/, visualize /ˈvɪʒuəˌlaɪz/
  • Lange woorden — let op de klemtoon: disability /dɪsəˈbɪlɪti/, caramelize /ˈkaɹ(ə)məlʌɪz/, accelerate /ɪkˈsɛl.əˌɹeɪt/, accomplishment /əˈkɑm.plɪʃ.mənt/, beautifully /ˈbju.tɪ.fə.li/

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:

  • Stemhebbende eindmedeklinker — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ niet verscherpen: braise /bɹeɪz/, nerve /nɝv/, blindfold /ˈblaɪ̯ndfɔʊ̯ld/, caramelize /ˈkaɹ(ə)məlʌɪz/, visualize /ˈvɪʒuəˌlaɪz/
  • /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: catfish /ˈkætfɪʃ/, caramel /ˈkæɹ.ə.mɛl/, ecstatic /ɛkˈstætɪk/, shallot /ˈʃælət/, gradually /ˈɡɹæd͡ʒuəli/
  • /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: diagnose /ˈdaɪ.əɡˌnoʊs/, garlic /ˈɡɑɹlɪk/, gradually /ˈɡɹæd͡ʒuəli/, graham /ɡɹæm/

Zo oefen je met deze video

  1. Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
  2. Spreek zin voor zin na op normale snelheid en herhaal elke zin tot je ritme gelijk is aan dat van de spreker.
  3. Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als chef, apron, dish.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
