recording 12 good morning everyone what you can see on the screen behind me is Sydney Harbour
2
and it may surprise you to learn
3
that this horrible rubbish lying at the bottom of the harbour
4
was actually put there intentionally as part of a conservation project
5
now the idea of putting rubbish into the harbour instead of cleaning it out may seem absurd to you
6
but allow me to explain Two years ago, I was involved in a study with the University of Sydney.
7
We were asked to try to calculate the number of fish and different species living in Sydney Harbour.
8
During this study, the divers noticed that in the areas cleared of rubbish, very little life remained, whereas the old cars
9
and other debris lying on the sea floor actually provided a
10
rich habitat for an abundance of creatures including up to 20 species of fish crabs
11
and seahorses and amazing plants such as sea tulips with bright red bodies we realized that
12
if you remove all of the rubbish contained in the harbour
13
then you also take away the homes of the creatures living
14
there earlier this year with the help of the sydney harbour
15
federation trust we reached a decision to expand our study and start putting rubbish back into particular areas of the harbour.
16
So far, we have used things like old car tyres and rope,
17
but we have a plan to carry out a more detailed study to test out a variety of artificial structures
18
and see whether the sea creatures in the harbour find these as attractive a home as the rubble of the past.
19
We'll also catalogue the creatures living there, and the data collected from the sites will be analysed to
20
establish whether these artificial reefs have in fact helped to increase the volume of fish in the harbour.
21
In the meantime, if you have any suggestions of other possible sites with submerged rubbish that would be suitable for our research,
22
please speak to me after the lecture.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
