First, I'll give you a bit of basic background.

In 2001, we focused on monkeys and their capability to either fashion crude tools or take advantage of naturally occurring ones.

then in 2007 we turned our thoughts to higher level thinking
6
and in particular numeracy we conducted a significant piece of research
7
to find out whether birds are in fact able to count the findings amazed everyone

and caused quite a stir around the world this helped to spur us on

periods gaining the animal's trust in terms of resources it can

a large number of supplementary staff to assist us for the length of the study

We often have to try to find more space just to simply house the animals, which can be quite an arduous chore.

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。
