2
I'm Rob.
3
And I'm Neil.
4
Hello.
5
Today we're talking about an unusual type of tourism.
6
Now, tourism is the business of providing services such as transport, or places to stay, or entertainment for people who are on holiday.
7
But instead of providing sunny holidays in a nice hotel by the sea, this is where tourists travel to sites of death, brutality and terror.
8
It's being called dark tourism.
9
Now, Rob, have you ever been to any dark tourist destination or place?
10
Yes, I visited Auschwitz in Poland.
11
A fascinating trip, but an obviously depressing place.
12
And next month I'm planning to go to visit Chernobyl, the site of a catastrophic nuclear accident back in 1986.
13
So these are not your typical sightseeing trips, but a visit to places that make you curious because of their significance significance, their importance in history.
14
Exactly.
15
We'll talk more about this soon, but not before I set you today's question.
16
Now, Robyn Island in South Africa is one dark tourism destination.
17
It's where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years.
18
But do you know in which year it finally closed as a prison?
19
Was it in A 1991, B 1996 or C 1999?
20
I don't know but I am going to guess A 1991
21
because I think he was released in 89 and surely they would have shut it down pretty quickly after that.
22
Well, I like your thinking.
23
I'll reveal the answer later on.
24
So let's talk more about dark tourism.
25
The word dark is used here because it relates to places that are connected with bad or sinister things, or things that could be considered morally wrong.
26
It's strange to want to visit places like these.
27
There is what we call a morbid fascination.
28
It's showing an interest in things connected with death and destruction, and these kinds of trips are on the increase.
29
Yes, there are organised tours to places like Ground Zero in New York, the killing fields in Cambodia and the nuclear power station in Chernobyl.
30
And there are the battlefields of World War I and II and the top security prison of Alcatraz.
31
There are also plans to turn the disaster site of the
32
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan into a tourist destination once the radiation is reduced.
33
But why do people want to visit these macabre sites?
34
Well, I mentioned curiosity and a chance to learn about history, but sometimes people just feel compelled to visit them.
35
But what about the ethics of dark tourism?
36
Is it wrong to make this trip?
37
Are we not just exploiting or making money or cashing in on someone suffering?
38
Dr Philip Stone is an expert in the subject.
39
He's director of the Institute for Dark Tourism Research.
40
He says this type of tourism isn't new.
41
People have been visiting these types of places for years.
42
He says it's always been there.
43
It's not new in the sense that we are fascinated by other death and the people's suffering,
44
but it's how it's packaged up by the tourist industry.
45
So, he says, dark tourism isn't new.
46
In fact, a medieval execution was an early form of dark tourism.
47
Maybe it's just human nature that draws us to these places.
48
Dr Stone says it's all about how these dark trips are packaged.
49
So it depends how they're sold and how tasteful they are.
50
Are they sensitive to the horrors of what has taken place?
51
Yes, being able to walk around a historic site or visit a museum is one thing,
52
but how about staying in a former prison in Latvia and paying to be treated like a prisoner?
53
Or how about crawling around Vietnamese war tunnels whilst people fire guns outside?
54
Hmm, maybe that's taking the experience too far.
55
Dr Stone says there's a blurred line between memorialisation and tourism.
56
He means it's hard to separate going to remember an event and the people who've died
57
with visiting somewhere as part of a holiday.
58
Another issue when visiting these places is how you remember your visit you must be respectful.
59
Perhaps taking photos, yes, but should you take a selfie?
60
And should you buy a souvenir or send a postcard home?
61
Yes, well you certainly wouldn't write on your postcard, wish you were here.
62
Anyway, let's now reveal the answer to the question I set you earlier.
63
Yes, this was about the former prison on Robben Island, which is now a popular destination for dark tourism.
64
I asked you when it finally closed as a prison.
65
Was it in A 1991, B 1996 or C 1999?
66
And I said A 1991.
67
you were wrong actually.
68
It was in 1996.
69
About 350,000 people now visit the site every year, which shows how much interest there is in a place that you would have once never wanted to go near.
70
Is it somewhere you would like to visit, Neil?
71
Err, I'm not so sure about dark tourism, to be honest.
72
OK.
73
Well, could you instead remind us of the vocabulary that we've heard today?
74
Yes, we heard...
75
...tourism, depressing, catastrophic, curious, morally wrong,
76
morbid fascination, macabre, compelled, ethics,
77
exploiting, human nature, tasteful, memorialisation, Respectful.
78
Thanks, Neil.
79
Well, we hope you've enjoyed today's programme.

  • I'll reveal the answer later on.
  • Perhaps taking photos, yes, but should you take a selfie?

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
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的being called · was imprisoned · was released
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it's always been · has taken · we've heard

需要注意的發音

說話人用了 15 次縮略和弱讀形式,例如 I'm, isn't, don't。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。

  • “sh” 和 “zh” 音: fascination /fæsɪˈneɪʃən/, memorialization /məˌmɔːɹi.əˌlaɪˈzeɪ̯.ʃən/
  • 長單詞——注意重音位置: fascination /fæsɪˈneɪʃən/, memorialization /məˌmɔːɹi.əˌlaɪˈzeɪ̯.ʃən/, catastrophic /ˌkætəˈstɹɑfɪk/, significance /sɪɡˈnɪfɪkəns/, brutality /ˌbɹuːˈtælɪti/

  • 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚,後面不要加母音: fascinate /ˈfæsɪneɪt/, macabre /məˈkɑb/, morbid /ˈmɔɹ.bɪd/, postcard /ˈpoʊstˌkɑɹd/, catastrophic /ˌkætəˈstɹɑfɪk/
  • /r/ 和 /l/ 的區別: memorialization /məˌmɔːɹi.əˌlaɪˈzeɪ̯.ʃən/, morally /ˈmɔɹəli/, respectful /ɹɪˈspɛkt.fl̩/, brutality /ˌbɹuːˈtælɪti/, crawl /kɹɔːl/

  1. 先完整聽一遍影片,不要開口,記下不認識的單詞。

  3. 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比,特別注意 compel, fascinate, fascination 這類單詞。

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。
