Welcome to Spotlight. I’m Liz Waid.
2
And I’m Colin Lowther.
3
Spotlight uses a special English method of broadcasting.
4
It is easier for people to understand, no matter where in the world they live.
5
Have you ever had a problem?
6
You are a person, so of course you have!
7
Maybe your motorbike would not start.
8
Maybe you needed to fix a toilet.
9
Maybe you did not know how to download something to your smartphone.
10
All people have problems.
11
But what was the first thing you did to solve your problem?
12
If you can connect to the Internet, one of the first things you probably did was search there for an answer.
13
There, you can find information and videos to help you with almost any problem.
14
These how-to videos are very popular.
15
That is because more and more people are interested in doing things themselves.
16
More people are becoming interested in growing, making, and fixing things.
17
This growing interest is known as the maker movement.
18
Today’s Spotlight is on the maker movement.
19
The maker movement includes a lot of different people and ideas.
20
It includes people working independently to invent, create or design.
21
Makers are people who design and create their own clothes or grow their own food.
22
Many makers look at things in the world and say, “I could make that.” Or they may say, “I think I could make that better.” Or they dream of something they wish existed.
23
And when they do not find it, they try to create it.
24
People have always made things.
25
Ancient people made baskets, bowls, and tools.
26
One generation of people taught the next.
27
Parents taught children.
28
This was how people shared knowledge, experience, and wisdom with each other.
29
But things started to change.
30
Machines made it easier to grow food.
31
So, fewer people needed to work on farms.
32
So they moved to cities.
33
They found work in factories.
34
But then factories started to use machines.
35
It started to cost less money to buy a new thing than to fix an old one.
36
People began to forget how to grow food, create things, or fix things when they broke.
37
And many people are tired of this.
38
They do not want to throw things away.
39
They want to be able to fix things that break.
40
They want to grow their own food.
41
They do not want to depend on factories or stores.
42
They want to use knowledge and skills instead of spending money.
43
In this way, the maker movement is a kind of return to the way things used to be.
44
The maker movement includes traditional work like weaving cloth, making things out of wood, and growing your own food.
45
But it also accepts and uses new technologies.
46
Computers are now much less frightening to people than they used to be.
47
More people understand how they work.
48
Children learn to write code for computers in school.
49
The Internet provides training and a way to connect to other makers.
50
People in the maker movement come together to make things.
51
Maker Faires are gatherings of these people.
52
They spend a few days together talking, planning, inventing, and solving problems.
53
These Faires began in the United States, but have spread to every continent.
54
For example, in 2016 there was a Maker Faire in Shenzhen, China.
55
At the Faire people taught wooden knife making, drawing, and how to build a robot out of LEGO building bricks.
56
There was even a clothes fashion show.
57
Much of the clothing was wearable technology.
58
It had built-in computers, lights, or body sensors.
59
Another kind of gathering of makers is called a Repair Café.
60
People bring their broken things to the Repair Café.
61
The Café has tools and supplies to fix things.
62
There are also experts who offer to teach people how to fix what they have brought in.
63
But whenever possible, the people must do the work themselves.
64
Repair Cafés began in Amsterdam, but have also spread around the world.
65
There are Repair Cafés in Egypt, Kenya, Ghana, Thailand, Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Azerbaijan, China and many other countries.
66
And the maker movement is still growing.
67
It is even starting to change education.
68
Some schools are creating “maker spaces.” In these places, children can invent, combine, and discover.
69
Jim Tiffin is a teacher in New York, in the US.
70
His students do not just sit and listen to him talk.
71
In the maker-space, they do things.
72
He told the Scholastic website, "It has had the most empowering effect on students of any of the courses that I have taught.
73
Students are taking the experiences from this class and using them in their other classes." Experts say that any school can be a maker space like this.
74
They do not need high cost equipment or supplies.
75
They can use paper, broken toys, string, clay or tape.
76
Any materials will work. Students just have to make things!
77
But schools are not the only places interested in the maker movement.
78
Some big businesses also try to use the maker movement to sell more products.
79
The clothing company Levis sells millions of pairs of blue jeans around the world.
80
Many people do not consider them to be part of the maker movement.
81
But Levis tries to find people who are making creative things.
82
Then they put these things on their website.
83
Big businesses like this tell the stories of these makers.
84
People like the stories and buy more clothing.
85
This way they try to seem like they are part of the maker movement even if they are making clothes in big factories.
86
Many people do not want to just use things and throw them in the garbage.
87
They want to use their hands. They want to learn.
88
They want to be independent and in control.
89
Tim Bajarin wrote about the maker movement for Time Magazine.
90
He wrote: “The more I look into it, the more I believe that the maker movement is very important to America’s future.
91
It may be able to turn more and more people into makers instead of just people who use things.
92
I know from history that when you give makers the right tools and good ideas, they can change the world.” Do you like to learn new things?

Trong thế giới hiện đại, việc tự tay làm những điều mình yêu thích trở nên phổ biến hơn bao giờ hết, và đây chính là cơ hội để bạn luyện nghe nói tiếng Anh qua video một cách hiệu quả.
5 Câu Nói Hữu Ích Trong Giao Tiếp Hằng Ngày

Hướng Dẫn Shadowing Bước Từng Bước
Để cải thiện khả năng nghe nói và phát âm tiếng Anh chuẩn theo video này, bạn có thể áp dụng phương pháp shadow speech. Dưới đây là các bước đơn giản để luyện tập:
- Xem video một lần: Hãy xem toàn bộ video mà không cần phải dừng lại, để bạn có cái nhìn tổng quát về nội dung.
- Luyện nghe: Xem lại video và chú ý đến cách mà Liz và Colin phát âm. Nghe thật kỹ cách họ ngắt quãng và nhấn âm trong câu.
- Bắt chước theo: Dừng video sau mỗi câu và cố gắng nói theo. Bạn có thể sử dụng phương pháp shadowspeak để đồng hành với họ, cố gắng sao cho âm thanh và nhịp điệu của bạn gần giống nhất với người nói.
- Ghi âm lại: Ghi âm giọng nói của bạn khi luyện tập và so sánh với giọng của diễn giả. Điều này giúp bạn nhận ra những điểm yếu trong phát âm của mình.
- Thực hành đều đặn: Lặp đi lặp lại quy trình này với nhiều đoạn khác nhau trong video để tiến bộ hơn trong kỹ năng nói tiếng Anh của bạn.
Việc áp dụng kỹ thuật luyện nghe nói qua video sẽ giúp bạn cải thiện khả năng giao tiếp trong tiếng Anh, đồng thời khám phá và hiểu rõ hơn về phong trào sáng tạo đang ngày càng phát triển.
Ngữ pháp trong video
Những cấu trúc người nói dùng nhiều nhất, kèm đúng cụm từ trong video:
| Cấu trúc | Trong video |
|---|---|
| “Used to” used to + động từ — thói quen hoặc tình trạng trong quá khứ nay không còn | used to be |
| Thì hiện tại hoàn thành have/has + quá khứ phân từ — việc đã xảy ra nhưng còn liên quan đến hiện tại | have always made · have spread · have brought |
| Câu bị động be + quá khứ phân từ — nhấn vào việc xảy ra, không phải người làm | is known · is called · were adapted |
| Mệnh đề quan hệ who / which + mệnh đề — thêm thông tin về người hoặc vật | people who design · people who are · people who use |
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.
