professionally.

I can see why.

Then a week later I was riding a wave after school one day and I I fell.

I was driven into a coral reef.

I was out of the water for a few months

because I had a lot of stitches and I lost my front teeth.

That was when I started playing guitar, a little more than just as a kind of a hobby.

I played for years, so it wasn't a new thing for me, but I had never given it too much time.

After the accident, I played to fill in the hours that I used to surf every day.

I was just good enough to put together chords and make melodies, but after those two months were up, I was back on the water just as much as I had been before.

I do admit it had a psychological impact.

It humbled me and it slowed me down.

I like to joke that I hit my head so hard that's why I'm so mellow, but I think it did mellow me out in a positive way,

The ocean is a real source of calm in my life, and it is in a sense contradictory that it It nearly took my life.

I heard that your voice was suddenly discovered.

How did you find out all of a sudden that you could sing?

It kind of came from not really trying to sing, but just whispering out the words, I think.

At college in California, I started to put together sets with a few of my songs on.

Initially, these were only for Kim, my girlfriend, but I did a few for my friends on surfing trips, and before long, I was being approached for more.

Then I switched my major from Maths to Film Studies, and that really sparked an interest in me.

Of course, it was logical for me to make surf films, and we'd be out filming with a guitar on the boat, and we wrote lyrics for background tracks.

That spread the word a little more in the surfing world.

Then I wrote a track for G -Love.

I didn't realize that he was a surfer, too, and it just took off from there.

It became a hit, and through him I met producers and managers and saw recording studios.

It was really exciting for me, but it was really just a chance meeting.

But five years ago I could barely sing loud enough for someone sitting next to me to hear.

It was more getting a little confidence with time and trying to build this thing a little louder.

Kim is now my wife, and she's always been a great supporter of my music.

There was a lot of major label interest in your music.

Why did you choose a small startup company like Enjoy to distribute your music?

Oh, just the fear factor.

I wasn't sure if it was really something I wanted to do, and I didn't want to sign a contract

that was going to be hard to get out of two months down the line, and just to kind of maintain control over my style and my sound.

In most of the meetings when I was talking to those major record label guys, they would have some ideas and try and give it a change what I did.

It's not the fact that they liked the little bit of what they heard, but they had some ideas of how they could market it and change it.

I just didn't want to do that.

Well, it really paid off for enjoy.

Are you still enjoying it?

So far, and if I stop enjoying it, I'll stop performing.

I do find the long tours hard.

I get completely haunted and actually started having recurring dreams when I was away for long periods. About what?

In my most vivid dream, I'm standing on the beach with a guitar, gazing into the shore break.

The stage crew is there, the band is set up, everything is normal, but the ocean is where the crowd should be,

and I'm thinking, "What's going on here?" We play on as the tide creeps in, it's knee -deep, then waist -deep, and we're still playing.

I look at the faces of the guys playing around me, and they start to fade as the light goes, and...

I feel like When do we stop?

Hmm, and do you still have these dreams?

I'm a lot more in control of what I do now.

But you've got to listen to your dreams.

In the past, I've made myself less than popular with promoters by canceling gigs to return home early after having one of those dreams.

Now I travel for no more than four weeks set a stretch, and winter tours have been scrubbed from the calendar.

That's when the waves pick up on the North Shore in Hawaii.

If I could just go canoe paddling or swimming in the ocean while I'm on tour, I wouldn't be itching to get home so badly.

But I've become dependent on it.

It's hard when you start an addiction at the age of five.

You're renowned for being a pioneer for green issues in the music industry.

Have you always had a political bent and does that manifest itself in your music?

As you grow older and learn about things, it eases into the music a little bit more.

Content -wise, I wasn't really trying to tackle too much with my first songs.

The new songs deal more with environmental issues and industrialization.

It's just one of those things.

Whatever's been on your mind for the last few years is what you end up writing the songs about.

Looking back, it's fairly transparent to see where I was at different stages of my singing career.

There are periods when love songs truly dominate, and there's a spell of lyrics about the responsibilities of parenthood.

Of course, the ocean played a major role for a long time, too.

I think it's pretty easy to see that it's always been about stuff that's important to me.

Is it possible to be really green in the music industry?

And how do you maintain those principles when you're on tour?

I wouldn't say it's easy.

We've worked hard to get where we are.

Our studio in L .A is entirely powered by solar energy, so we're pretty pleased with that.

We're on the road a lot, so our buses and trucks run on biodiesel, but a tour has a pretty large footprint, if you're not careful.

Every year we raise the stakes and learn from the last tour and learn from other musicians.

It's a leapfrog thing, you know.

We hear about bands like Pearl Jam or Neil Young doing something, and we want to do that and implement it in our tour, and then we'll make some progression that other bands will use.

It's a kind of mutual, unspoken agreement.

We're all so passionate about it.

One thing we're trying to do with our current tour is really empower the fans to get active in their communities.

And we're going to have vote the environment out on the road with us.

That is a group that gives out information on where the politicians stand on which issues.

And so it's not like we're not being dictatorial, but we're letting them get educated in which candidates back the environment in which areas, who's green and who's not.

We're also going to have Climate Council with us on tour.

They do a report card on companies, and you can look on this website, climatecouncil .org.

It's basically a list of all these companies

and how they rate as far as climate change goes and what they're doing to better their companies.

Is there anything you do that goes against these principles?

I'd like to say not, but I do have an eco -syn.

My eco sin is riding surfboards.

The surfboard industry is a pretty dirty industry.

It's big business.

Every year somebody wants a new board, the designs are changing so much, it couldn't really be worse in that respect.

To get the best waves, you need the most developed shape for your board, the right thin.

Boards become obsolete pretty fast.

But it's in a place right now that people are discouraging that.

where boards are built to last longer.

But even the materials they use, the resins and other materials, "They're not great.

In fact, they're terrible, although there's been a slight improvement over the years in some of the core materials."

So that's definitely my Ecosyn.

100

I have a different board for all different conditions.

101

I think I have about 15.

102

Yeah, that's my sin.

103

Now listen to the third part of the test again.

104

Ten years ago, Jack Johnson was virtually unknown outside the surfing fraternity.

105

Now, with five best -selling albums under his belt and worldwide sellout tours, those days of anonymity seem a world away.

106

He's also the number one selling artist in iTunes history, and we welcome him today.

107

So Jack, which came first for you, surf or song?

108

Or definitely surf.

109

That goes way back to when I was around five.

110

My dad was a surfer and all my friends were surfers, without exception.

111

So when and how did the music come in to challenge surfing as number one priority?

112

Well, that's quite a long story.

113

It was the Pipeline Surfing Championship in Maui in 1992.

114

I was the youngest competitor to make it to the finals, so I created a bit of a stir among the other surfers who looked on me as an outsider.

115

I saw the competitiveness and the.. egos and the anger that is involved in competition.

116

I caught two waves and, in fact, had the best tube in the heat, but the reaction of the others was to force me out of getting a third.

117

I can still see my friends on the shore cheering me on and screaming, "You're a winner !" and I can remember that passion for victory burning in me.

118

Anyway, I was eventually disqualified for failing to catch three waves in thirty minutes.

119

I'd expected more camaraderie from the fraternity, and it felt like I'd been cheated.

120

It was the first thing that turned me off surfing.

121

professionally.

122

I can see why.

123

Then a week later I was riding a wave after school one day and I fell.

124

I was driven into a coral reef.

125

126

134

135

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
