Shadowing Practice: WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND Mind the Gap - Learn English Speaking with Video
Ders oluşturuluyor...
1
In today's podcast, I am going to talk about the English word,
2
mind, and about some expressions which contain the word, mind.
3
Your mind means the things which happen inside your head,
4
or inside your brain, your thinking.
5
In other words, we can say,
6
for example, that someone has a good mind,
7
that means they think clearly and logically.
8
Or we can say that someone has a mathematical mind,
9
they are naturally good at maths.
10
Or we can say about someone,
11
she has a mind of her own,
12
that means, she thinks for herself.
13
She does not just accept what other people say.
14
We also use mind as a verb.
15
To mind something means to be aware of something,
16
to be careful about something,
17
to have it in your mind.
18
If you have visited London,
19
I am sure you have traveled on the underground and seen the signs or heard the loudspeaker announcements,
20
which tell you to mind the gap.
21
There is often a gap between the railway carriage and the station platform.
22
If you mind the gap,
23
you think about the gap and take care when you get on or off the train.
24
If you don't mind the gap,
25
you may trip or fall and hurt yourself.
26
You can mind other things as well children, for example, or animals.
27
Joanne has a friend called Susan.
28
Susan looks after small children in her own home while their parents are at work.
29
She plays with the children,
30
she feeds them and she takes them for a walk to the park and to the shops.
31
She is what we call a childminder.
32
If we say mind out to someone, we mean be careful.
33
When Susan takes her group of little children for a walk,
34
they need to cross the road.
35
She holds the children by the hand and says to them,
36
mind out in case a car is coming.
37
Kevin, you may remember, is into 1980s punk rock.
38
One of his favorite bands is playing at a gig on Saturday.
39
He asks Joanne if she would like to go to hear them.
40
No way, says Joanne, who thinks that listening to 1980s punk rock is a form of torture.
41
Do you mind if I go with George?
42
Asks Kevin.
43
He means, does it cause you any problems if I go to the gig with George?
44
And Joanne says, no, of course I don't mind.
45
And then there is the expression,
46
to make up your mind.
47
This means, simply, to decide to do something.
48
If I make up my mind to sell my old car,
49
it means that I have decided to sell my car.
50
Joanne's friend Susan, the childminder, is always dithering.
51
She cannot decide what to do.
52
Should she wear a red jumper or a blue jumper?
53
Should she read a book or watch television?
54
Should she take a bus or walk?
55
She cannot decide.
56
Joanne sometimes says to her,
57
for goodness sake, make up your mind.
58
That means stop wasting time,
59
just decide what to do and do it.
60
And finally, let's meet the expression to change your mind.
61
If I decide to do something,
62
but then I decide to do something else instead, I change my mind.
63
Kevin has saved up some money,
64
has made up his mind to buy an iPod.
65
It is exactly what he needs to listen to his collection of 1980s punk rock music on the train.
66
But on his way to the iPod shop,
67
he passes a shoe shop.
68
In the window, there is a pair of green suede shoes.
69
They are, thinks Kevin, the finest,
70
the most beautiful green suede shoes in the whole world.
71
Suddenly, he is in love with the shoes.
72
He decides to buy the shoes and not the iPod.
73
He changes his mind.

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.
