Luyện nói tiếng Anh bằng Shadowing qua video: I Got a Pet Dinosaur (kinda)
Đang tạo bài học...
1
Apparently, there's this rare species of lizard that not only looks like a dinosaur, but acts just like one.
2
The name of it is a thrilled dragon, and it looks very deadly.
3
But despite how dangerous it looks, I found this website that sells legal exotic animals, including this dinosaur, for $800.
4
So yeah, basically, I'm gonna buy this, build it at home, and try to keep it as a pet.
5
And I don't know how hard that is gonna be because as you've already seen this thing is
6
Literally that that thing's a demon.
7
I mean look at that But anyways, let's just buy this thing
8
and in this video I'll be judging how good of a
9
pet a dinosaur actually is by doing stuff like taking it outside like a dog Yeah, this video is crazy.
10
But before any of that I first have to wait for it to be delivered
11
which is going to take about a week So in the meantime, let's build this thing its dream home with everything it could possibly want and to do that Well, I've got a lot of stuff.
12
I first put together the glass enclosure to build the dream home inside of.
13
And anyways, now it's time to actually build the dream home
14
and to do that there's five steps starting with creating the background.
15
To create the background, I sprayed a ton of foam all along the glass
16
so I could stick a ton of wood to it.
17
You see, I'm basically recreating a forest in here since that's where frilled dragons live in the wild.
18
And to complete the forest look, I covered it in a ton of dirt and wood chips so it'd look nice and natural, you know.
19
As you can see this tank is already looking very very beautiful
20
and natural with all that wood and dirt But it's also looking a bit brown and lifeless too.
21
So let's get to doing some more stuff starting with the
22
floor Now I know I was just complaining about everything being brown
23
but to make the floor we do got to use some brown dirt
24
So yeah the cheapest way to get a bunch of quality
25
dirt is to use one of these compressed coconut fiber bricks Which may not seem like a lot of dirt, but if we add a huge tub of water to it well Now it's a lot of dirt.
26
Finally, I mixed in a bunch of other types of ground stuff because that's what forest floors got, you know?
27
Alright, this is starting to look almost like a forest, but we're still missing some key things.
28
So let's move on to step three, plants and decorations.
29
Now first of all, I've got two different types of moss
30
which to start I'll use carpet moss which comes conveniently packaged in this box.
31
Now I always thought moss was just like dead grass or something, but it's actually an alive organism that over time is gonna grow and overtake the entire terrarium.
32
Pretty cool.
33
And I also spread a different type of moss around to add a little bit more variety in this tank.
34
Now this moss is absolutely fantastical, you know, it really brings the whole thing to life.
35
But I'm gonna need way more plants if I'm gonna make this thing look like the dinosaur's actual habitat, which means I'm gonna go get some actual plants with leaves and flowers on them and stuff like that.
36
Yeah.
37
So of course I got in my car to go to the best plant store in town.
38
Bro, which
39
if you see my channel before you already know where I'm
40
going baby place your item I had some people shaming me
41
for going to Walmart for plants in a previous video
42
But clearly you guys don't understand the fantastical selection of plants they got I mean look at all these
43
Thanks Walmart for all these good plants
44
So I got a couple small plants and I also got one big one
45
that should make the dinosaur nice and happy and
46
while I was walking around There I also saw they had some plant Lego sets
47
which you know I like Lego of course I bought some, baby.
48
When I got home, I figured I should just build the Lego set real quick to see how those plants look.
49
So I put that all together, and then I put each of the plants inside of the enclosure and check these out.
50
Yo, this looks so cool.
51
I'm just kidding.
52
This actually looks pretty stupid.
53
I don't know why I spent $50 on this.
54
Get this trash out of here.
55
Instead, I of course got out the plants I bought and planted them around the tank.
56
There we go, this tank is starting to come together well now.
57
But in order to complete the decorations, I need to add a huge piece of wood
58
that goes diagonally from the bottom of the tank to the top of the tank, so that the dinosaur will be able to have easy access to the heat lamp that will be at the top.
59
And this is the only wood I have right now, definitely not enough to get to the top.
60
So in order to get some more wood, I went outside to find some.
61
Okay, so I basically just need to get some sort of branch that's nice and thick and long, and that's kind of too thin.
62
I need something that's not gonna snap under the pressure of the dinosaur, and yeah, that kind of sucks too.
63
But oh, this one actually looks pretty good.
64
Look at this, it's my hand kind of wraps around it.
65
That's good thickness.
66
So I went inside and grabbed the biggest knife from my kitchen, and I got to sign.
67
This should only take like 30 minutes.
68
I'll be done soon.
69
Eventually, I was able to get this fantastical piece of wood that would work perfectly.
70
So I quickly hosed it down to remove dirt and insects and stuff and brought it back inside.
71
After breaking it down so it would fit I put it in place
72
and covered the bottom with some more wood and boom the decorations are Complete in here, but of course I'm not just gonna leave the tank like
73
this We've got a first added some technologies to make this
74
the best enclosure ever starting with some water Technologies the first water technology I got is this little box
75
which is actually an automatic humidifier You see for all dragons
76
need the humidity in their enclosure to be pretty high
77
and basically this well You know it humidifies the enclosure by spraying water everywhere nice second water technology.
78
I got is extremely high-tech It's a water bowl.
79
Yeah, so you know the dinosaur can get a drink of water and stuff
80
Now even though I added in this amazing water dish Frildragons
81
actually never drink from it actually just use it as a bathroom Yeah, so to allow the dinosaur to actually get a drink of
82
water I got up this water pump put it in a container of water
83
and linked it up with some tubing now
84
when I turn it on It creates this nice little flow of water
85
which frilled dragons will actually drink from well Now there's just
86
one more thing to build before I add the frilled dragon in
87
and that is And basically what
88
that means is I need to recreate the Sun in this enclosure to do
89
that I got a heavy-duty heat lamp and an expensive top-quality UV bulb
90
that recreates the same UV rays at the sun does I also got another lamp with a high-intensity heat bulb
91
because frilled dragons like it to be extremely hot in their
92
homes To test the temperature I hooked up a thermometer
93
and as you can see it reached up to 100 degrees in the basking spot, which is perfect.
94
Finally, I put a bit of aluminum foil on top to keep the heat and humidity inside Okay, well the frilled dragons home is now complete
95
and well It's time to add it inside
96
and the next day I got a notification on my phone saying the package was ready for pickup
97
So I drove out to FedEx.
98
All right, so I just got back from FedEx and I just picked up this box, which is probably the frilled dragon.
99
I mean, it says live animal.
100
Hopefully it didn't give me the wrong package.
101
But anyways, I'm gonna take this thing inside and put it in the cage and oh, nope, there's some chickens right there.
102
Bruh.
103
I might gotta show these guys to the dinosaur.
104
They're gonna be good friends.
105
But before I do anything like that, let's just start by opening up this box.
106
Oh my gosh, I can kinda see the dinosaur right now and well, it's definitely a dinosaur.
107
Now that I have the frilled dragon, I'm gonna find out if dinosaurs are actually good pets by doing stuff like feeding it, taking it outside, and even more.
108
But first, let's get this guy in the enclosure.
109
Now, this may not look like a dinosaur just yet, but that's because its thing on its neck only comes out on special occasions.
110
But trust me, I will be showing you exactly what it looks like later in the video.
111
Okay, well, the dinosaur is in its enclosure right now, and honestly, I'm still scared to get within a five-foot radius of this thing.
112
Like, I have no idea if this is as ferocious as those videos made it out to be, But, uh, I guess we're gonna find out.
113
For now, I already know this guy is very hungry and thirsty from spending a day in that shipping container.
114
And as you can see, his water bowl is already messed up because he was, like, jumping around and pooping in there like I thought he would.
115
So to give him a drink of water, I turned my water pump on a very low setting, which made little drops of water fall above the dinosaur.
116
Immediately, he started to stick out his tongue and take little sips of it, which is actually pretty cool to watch.
117
Then, he just started to bask in it like he was taking a shower.
118
Dang, maybe this guy isn't as ferocious as I thought.
119
He actually looks pretty chill right now.
120
What?
121
Now, to feed the furled dragon, I asked the guy I bought it from which insect is the dinosaur's favorite.
122
And he said crickets are one of the best.
123
So, I got a bag of some pretty big crickets.
124
Bruh, what are these guys all running around in here for?
125
It's not like you guys gonna escape.
126
They're just jumping around.
127
Are you guys stupid?
128
And literally immediately after I put a bunch of them in, the dinosaur started to go crazy, as you can see jumping all around the enclosure to get a nice juicy meal.
129
And to show you just how cool it is when the frilled dragon hunts, I hired a professional nature documentary narrator to tell you what's going on.
130
Look at this.
131
In this small, recreated, prehistoric world, a cricket enjoys a quiet meal of moss.
132
But nearby, the frilled dragon, a creature with roots deep in ancient history, has spotted the movement.
133
Suddenly, the dragon's head snaps towards the cricket.
134
In an instant, it leaps forward, jaws closing around the cricket with precision.
135
The cricket's meal is cut short, now being completely devoured by one of nature's best hunters.
136
Now as you can see, that was very cool, and the dinosaur is a very good hunter.
137
So to rank how good of a pet this dinosaur is, I'm gonna rank a bunch of different factors, and because it was super cool watching this guy drink and eat,
138
I'm gonna give Care a 9 out of 10.
139
Yeah, 9 out of 10.
140
That's a pretty good score.
141
Good job, bro.
142
Factor that goes into a pet being good is how friendly it is and whether
143
or not I let you handle it now dogs are the perfect example of this You know they're super fluffy
144
and nice and they pretty much never bite you But for dragons on the other hand Yeah, I mean based off the videos I've seen they are not friendly at all.
145
All right.
146
This is the moment of truth I'm gonna figure out
147
if this guy's gonna let me hold him
148
and to make sure I don't get bit I've got some hand protection as you can see.
149
I'm just gonna go start by trying to pet him.
150
Okay, there we go Okay, we're petting him, and it seems like he's chill with that.
151
I'm just gonna be very gentle.
152
Oh!
153
Okay, I got very scared there for a second but
154
so yeah i was too scared to pick him up with my hand
155
so i just picked up the log he was sitting on
156
there you go good boy good boy okay we're doing it okay
157
so we're just gonna start by putting him on the kitchen table let's see stay right there
158
and there we go look at him
159
when he's out of his cage he's doing good he's just sitting there dang
160
but he's actually being a good boy
161
and the craziest thing is is you see the frill on his neck it hasn't even come out Yeah, so usually they put the frill out on their neck when they're super angry,
162
but this guy he doesn't even put it out once He's like super chill with me.
163
So he's just letting me pet him.
164
He's a good boy, bro And since the dinosaur was doing
165
so good just chilling inside I decided I would try
166
and bring him outside to let him explore the world and I'm outside with the frilled dragon Look at this.
167
He's just basking in the Sun.
168
This is awesome.
169
It's actually pretty cool He's like blending in with the log.
170
I'm pretty sure he does that to avoid any birds of prey.
171
He's normally in the wild They're like scared of birds attacking them, but right now he's just blending in with the log He's not even scared at all
172
and like I said I was going to show the frilled
173
dragon to the chickens I don't want him to get too stressed out, but I'm just gonna kind of let him see the chickens and see him over there Yeah, yeah, you see the chickens aren't they so cool?
174
Oh, they look pretty scared and oh, okay.
175
They're just running away Yeah, I think they're scared of them Okay I'm just gonna bring him back inside
176
that actually went very well and the dinosaur didn't even get mad at me once
177
but to be fair I was too scared to hold him
178
so because of that I'm giving friendliness a seven out of ten
179
And now for the final thing
180
that determines how good a pet is is to seize the reaction of my mom So yeah, I'm gonna show it to my mom, but real quick I just want to let you know
181
that only 5% of people are actually subscribed
182
And I know every youtuber says this and I said the same thing last video, but it is a real statistic So please just subscribe if you like this video.
183
Thank you very much mom.
184
Can you come in?
185
Have you seen my new pet?
186
All right, so the lizard is in this giant enclosure right here.
187
Do you see it?
188
Yeah, so yes, basically right there and And, uh, or do you know what kind of lizard it is, though?
189
It looks like a little dinosaur.
190
A dinosaur, yeah.
191
Yeah.
192
That's the, that's why I got it.
193
It looks like a dinosaur.
194
And guess how much it costs?
195
Hmm.
196
I don't know.
197
It costs $800.
198
No, it did not.
199
It costs $800.
200
That's not even funny.
201
It did, but this is the new addition to the family.
202
All right.
203
What's the name?
204
It doesn't have a name.
205
Oh, Mr. Prehistoric.
206
You want to name him Mr. Prehistoric?
207
Mr. Prehistoric.
208
That's a stupid name.
209
So what are you rated out of 10?
210
You're pretty cool for historic 10 10 out of 10 10 out of 10.
211
Okay, bye thanks So she actually ended up liking it
212
and gave it a 10 out of 10
213
That means the average score for the pet dinosaur is 8.7 out of 10
214
So that means this is actually a very very good pet I recommend it to anybody
215
that can afford it which is nobody because who's gonna spend $800 on the lizard?
216
Anyways, I know I said
217
that the dinosaur would be showing his neck frill a lot in this video
218
Which he hasn't yet so to try
219
and make him do it I got a scary picture on my phone and showed it to him and
220
He didn't really care so I tried getting another picture of a bird predator this time which Yeah, he didn't care about that either.
221
So sorry guys.
222
I lied.
223
Mr Prehistoric is not going to show his role in this video
224
But that is a good thing anyways because it means he likes me
225
and he isn't stressed at all So thank you everybody for watching today.
226
We figured out that dinosaurs are actually very good pets.
227
It's pretty cool Yeah, make sure you subscribe click the video on the screen and yeah, bye.
228
He's a good boy.
229
He's a good boy.
230
You're a good boy, bro.

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.
