1
Part 4.
2
You will hear an interview with a man called Guy Reardon who works as a stuntman performing dangerous scenes in movies.
3
When you see a fight or a car chase in a movie,
4
it's often a stuntman or woman taking the risks, not a real actor.
5
Guy Reardon's a top stuntman.
6
Guy, do you usually work individually or in a team?
7
It depends.
8
In my first job I was part of a team of other stuntmen.
9
Several of us had to jump off a fourth floor rooftop together and get caught by the group on the ground.
10
That involved relying on everyone else to do things properly,
11
which wasn't something I enjoyed.
12
Despite that uncertainty, I hoped my strength and sense of timing would get me through.
13
Audiences rarely appreciate the lengths we go to to provide their entertainment.
14
Obviously it's dangerous, but what's the most challenging thing for you about the work?
15
It's a wonderful job, but like any career,
16
you have to have tools.
17
For a stuntman it's his or her body,
18
and if a stunt goes wrong you can end up badly hurt.
19
If I thought about that though,
20
I'd never do the job.
21
But it's the never-ending process to up your game,
22
to expand and extend what you're good at, that's the toughest bit.
23
Of course there's a lot of competition in the stunt world,
24
that makes it exciting.
25
What was it like working on the movie Raw Stuff?
26
It's based on a true story about soldiers in action,
27
so it was extremely important that the stunts didn't look like standard movie action sequences.
28
The mountains we were filming in were stunning,
29
which made up for having to hike up with 25 kilos of equipment on our backs.
30
You just didn't notice the weight.
31
The view from the top was sensational.
32
The tricky part was tumbling onto rocky mountain ledges so
33
that the camera could be as close as possible and the audiences would see and feel what those soldiers went through.
34
You've often acted as a stunt double for the actor Marty Walker.
35
Yeah, Marty and I get on.
36
He varies his size drastically from one movie to the next.
37
He can go from athletic action hero to skinny professor in some major body transformations.
38
His dedication to doing that's amazing.
39
It affects me as well.
40
I had to put on weight for his last movie.
41
Marty wanted to do the motorbike stunts himself,
42
but we persuaded him not to.
43
It involved jumping off at high speed.
44
Pretty silly for an untrained person to try and do,
45
or even a stuntman.
46
Which movie do you remember filming most?
47
Light at Dawn.
48
They wanted me to say some lines, real acting.
49
After a few attempts, I gave up and asked for someone else to do it.
50
The director, Peter Levine, was very ambitious.
51
Some things he asked for hadn't been tried before.
52
It was truly a pleasure when we got things right.
53
We filmed all over the world.
54
Everyone on what was a huge film crew was completely exhausted flying from one place to the next.
55
How long have you been in the movie industry?
56
Twenty years.
57
I've seen some changes.
58
There's more technology these days,
59
but there's just as great a need for stunt actors.
60
Some things can only be performed by a real human.
61
I've worked with some great people in some great locations and had a lot of laughs,
62
something that's increasingly missing these days because there's so much at stake.
63
But that does mean the financial rewards for those who get into the big movies are generally worth it.
64
I can't say I've been unlucky in that respect.
65
What would you advise someone wanting to do your job?
66
Stunt work's become highly specialised over the years.
67
There's high falls, fight scenes,
68
horse stunts, car chases, the list goes on.
69
There's no easy answer to the question of whether it's better to become skilled at one thing or be diverse.
70
I don't try and discourage people from getting into stunts,
71
but I do try to convince them to have another source of income to fall back on.
72
Most stuntmen I know also do things like construction,
73
security, web design, and though everyone has an agent to find them work,
74
it's so often about your own contact rather than anything else.

為什麼要通過這個影片練習口語？
通過觀看 看YouTube學英語 的影片，學習者能夠在真實的對話環境中練習口語，尤其是像本次與特技演員Guy Reardon的訪談。Guy在訪談中分享了他的工作經驗和挑戰，這為學習者提供了豐富的語言語境。學習者可以模仿他的發音與表達方式，通過shadow speak的技巧，來提升他們的口語流利度和自信心。
語法與表達的語境分析
在此次訪談中，Guy Reardon運用了多種關鍵語言結構，學習者可以從中受益，以下是幾個重點:
- 一般現在時和過去時的運用： Guy在描述自己的工作經歷時，頻繁使用一般過去時（"我曾經是一個團隊的一部分"）和現在時（"這是一份美好的工作"），這有助於學習者理解時間表達的不同用法。
- 條件句的使用： 他提到“如果我想到這些，我就永遠不會做這份工作”，這個表達幫助學習者形成條件結構的思維模式，用於討論假設和結果。
- 從句的使用： Guy提到“這很重要，因為特技的表現不能看起來像標準的電影動作”，瞭解如何使用從句可以幫助學習者增強他們的句子複雜度。
常見發音陷阱
在這一訪談中，英語學習者可能會遇到一些發音挑戰，尤其是對特定單詞和短語的發音。例如:
- stuntman（特技演員）：音節較長，初學者可能會在發音上出現困難，需注意母音的清晰度。
- equipment（裝置）：這個詞的重音在第二音節，初學者若重音錯誤，可能導致無法被理解。
- tumbling（翻滾）：此詞中的“tum”發音容易被混淆，準確的發音對情境理解至關重要。
通過反覆練習這些發音並結合 提高英語發音 的訓練，學習者能有效克服這些發音陷阱，進一步提升他們的口語能力。
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構，並附上影片中的原話：
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | You've often acted · have you been · I've seen |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼，而不是誰做的 | been tried · be performed |
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。
