Shadowing Practice: Stop Start in Love - Learn English Speaking with Video
Ders oluşturuluyor...
1
Let's try to understand one of the oddest, most painful, most widespread phenomena in love.
2
It's going on right this moment between a couple, let's say he a dentist, she a nutritionist in Rio de Janeiro.
3
Two teenagers are at it in Canberra, there's a pair involved in the rigmarole in downtown Dakar, another in Svalbard, another still in Winnipeg.
4
If every time it happened a light went on, most of the earth would be a glow from space.
5
We can refer to the phenomenon as push-pull or stop-start or sometimes distance management.
6
The structure is identical and fairly predictable.
7
Growing intimacy, then retreat.
8
Altitude, then a drop.
9
Two good days, then a fight.
10
Five warm messages, then silence.
11
A weekend away, then a call for time alone.
12
It can seem like a horrible, but ultimately mysterious curse.
13
It is, in fact, an almost logical phenomenon with a singular purpose – to protect one
14
or both of the parties from a generally unconscious but violent fear that love might work out, that happiness might become real,
15
that a true partnership could build, that vulnerability might be created and then, when the shield was lowered, when one had grown to depend on someone completely,
16
that everything might go catastrophically wrong.
17
The other party could change their mind, they might abscond, they could die.
18
To prevent such worries, the mind of the stop-start lover looks around for ingenious solutions
19
and finds one in a committedly dispiriting game.
20
Older than chess, more harmful than poker, this game would have been played in ancient Egypt.
21
The Aztecs were at it.
22
The rules state that love can happen, but that it must never pick up velocity.
23
There can be intimacy, but always within bounds.
24
The exits must remain forever open.
25
can't be too much security that would paradoxically generate an untenable impression of danger.
26
In practice, the game requires a vigilant monitoring of every exchange and repeated quiet injections of disappointment.
27
If last night was beautiful, this morning has to be moody.
28
Tuesday was good, Wednesday must be awful.
29
If the dialogue is getting very cosy, there has to be some disappearance.
30
What cannot be allowed to occur was what almost certainly once occurred a very long time ago.
31
An unprocessed, unexplored letdown, in which cosiness was achieved and then torn away.
32
Mummy was the best mummy in the world, before the doctor said she wasn't well.
33
Daddy was the sweetest, then Jill came on the scene.
34
The holidays were nice, except for when the drinking began.
35
Let's believe that someone interested in stop-start love isn't doing it on purpose.
36
The lover who keeps needing to pause isn't aware, as they put down the phone and decides not to answer a message for four hours,
37
that they are interrupting the flow of affection in the name of self-protection and along the way, devastating a fellow human being.
38
The most potent players of this stop-start game have no real insight into their tactics.
39
They just register an overwhelming need not to type anything back, not to be free tonight
40
and not to say I love you too at the end of a call or evening in bed.
41
What can we, the victims of stop-start, do?
42
For a start, feel extremely sorry for ourselves in our misery.
43
We don't need to compound our pain by making light of it, or indeed hoping it can ever easily end.
44
It would be hard to explain all this to a group of six-year-olds.
45
When you're older, you're going to form something called relationships.
46
You'll meet a nice person, a special friend.
47
Some days your special friend will call you and on others they'll just vanish.
48
One might not want to make it to adulthood after a class like that.
49
The sole effective weapon we have against stop-start game playing is knowledge.
50
To describe the phenomenon accurately the moment it appears, to provide a succinct explanation as to why it might be doing so,
51
to give the other party a few chances at reform, and then to walk away, because we know what we're up against,
52
and we recognise that lonely calm truly is better than continually agitated togetherness.

Bu dersin kelimeleri ve konuşma notları
Bu C1 seviyesindeki konuşma dersi “Stop Start in Love” videosuna dayanıyor. Bu videoda gölgeleme çalışması için 52 cümle ve 707 kelime var. Konuşma bölümü 4:24 sürüyor. Konuşmacı dakikada yaklaşık 160 kelimeyle, günlük konuşmaya yakın doğal bir hızda konuşuyor. Kelimelerin yalnızca %81’i İngilizcede en sık kullanılan 3.000 kelime arasında, bu yüzden kelime dağarcığı zorlayıcı.

Dikkat edilecek telaffuzlar
Konuşmacı isn't, you're, can't gibi kısaltılmış biçimleri 10 kez kullanıyor. Bunları duyduğunuz gibi kısa söyleyin.
- “sh” ve “zh” sesleri: nutritionist /njuːˈtɹɪʃ.ənɪst/, vanish /ˈvænɪʃ/, affection /əˈfɛk.ʃən/, unconscious /ˌʌnˈkɑnʃəs/, injection /ɪnˈd͡ʒɛk.ʃən/
- Uzun kelimeler — vurguyu doğru yere koyun: intimacy /ˈɪn.tɪ.mə.si/, nutritionist /njuːˈtɹɪʃ.ənɪst/, paradoxically /ˌpɛɹəˈdɑksɪkli/, vulnerability /ˌvʌln(ə)ɹəˈbɪlɪti/, disappearance /dɪsəˈpɪəɹəns/
Türkçe konuşanların zorlandığı sesler:
- Kelime başındaki ünsüz kümesi — araya ünlü eklemeyin: nutritionist /njuːˈtɹɪʃ.ənɪst/, predictable /pɹəˈdɪktəbləl/, glow /ɡloʊ/
- /æ/ — “e”den daha açık: agitate /ˈæ.d͡ʒɪ.teɪt/, vanish /ˈvænɪʃ/, altitude /ˈælt.ɪˌtjuːd/, accurately /ˈæk.jə.ɹɪt.li/
Bu videoyla nasıl çalışılır
- Videonun tamamını konuşmadan bir kez dinleyin ve bilmediğiniz kelimeleri not edin.
- 0,75× hızla başlayın, cümle cümle tekrar edin ve kolaylaşınca normal hıza dönün.
- Kendinizi kaydedin ve orijinaliyle karşılaştırın; mummy, intimacy, abscond gibi kelimelere özellikle dikkat edin.
Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
