10
I've just been to something I'm sure I'll remember all my life.
11

12
It was just the perfect setting, a square surrounded by elegant historic buildings.
13
Quite a severe location in some ways, but that suited their style.
14
The bit I'll personally always treasure was how taken my son was by it all.
15
Usually he's a bit dismissive of my tastes in songs, but he agreed to let me drag him along
16
and it was clear from his face
17
that he found it spellbinding i've now agreed to go along to watch a cricket match with him
18
and hope i'll be equally surprised to find it enjoyable
19
speaker two it was an absolutely extraordinary evening well worth the
20
long rail journey i'd had to make to get there the speakers were excellent managing to be both moving
21
and witty in a way that seemed totally appropriate given the nature of the occasion,
22
a hundred years since the halls that had housed such a major national exhibition had burnt down.
23
But I remember the event also for personal reasons.
24
I bumped into a friend I hadn't seen for a good ten years, a guy I used to play football with before we both headed off to university.

26
Speaker 3 When you think back over the memorable events in your life,
27
I think sometimes it's relatively ordinary ones that can stand out more than the big public occasions.
28
My grandfather becoming 80, for example, had a surprisingly significant impact on my life.
29
A famous actor who'd been to school with Grandpa, gave a very touching speech about the importance of roots, and it came to me with total clarity
30
that I really did want to move back to the town where I grew up.
31
I'd been turning the idea over in my mind for quite some time, but might never have got round to doing anything about it had it not been for that speech.
32
Speaker 4 I met Fiona when we were both on a train going to the airport last month, and we started talking about where we were heading.

but this time because she had to attend a conference in connection with her work as an architect.
35
I explained
36
that I was off to the city where I'd had the
37
luck as a child to go to the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics.

The thing that struck me most then were the fireworks over the snowy mountains.
39
I don't think I've ever seen anything more stunning in the twenty years since.
40
Speaker 5 I was a bit late coming home last night because I'd had to hand in a piece of lost property.
41
I'd found a purse on the floor of the auditorium.
42
You remember I was going to see one of my favorite plays it was an excellent performance
43
but i think i'll remember the evening most because of that purse
44
when i looked inside it the credit card had the name of a really famous political figure on it
45

Enough to buy a new car.

FOR YOU
推薦影片
這個影片適合誰看?
如果你正在備考CAE,或是想提升英語口語練習能力,尤其是想通過“shadow speech”(影子跟讀法)掌握自然表達,那這個影片再合適不過了。它包含真實對話場景,話題圍繞“難忘事件”,既能積累實用詞彙,又能模仿 native speaker 的語調節奏,是看影片學英語的優質素材。
值得“偷學”的詞彙和習語
- spellbinding:令人著迷的。比如影片中“he found it spellbinding”,形容事物極具吸引力。
- turn over in my mind:反覆思考。“I'd been turning the idea over in my mind”,表達對某事的斟酌。
- bump into:偶然遇見。“I bumped into a friend”,比“meet by chance”更口語化。
這些表達生動且高頻,融入日常對話能瞬間提升語言質感。
如何練好口音?
影片中說話者的語調起伏自然,尤其是講述難忘經歷時的情感變化,很適合用來練習“shadowing”。建議先逐句跟讀,注意shadow speech的關鍵:延遲0.5秒,模仿發音、重音和停頓。比如“the bit I'll personally always treasure”,“treasure”的重音要突出,表現出珍視的情感。另外,對話中的連讀(如“agreed to”)和弱讀(如“had to”)也需重點關注,多聽多練就能掌握地道節奏。
想要高效練習?不妨利用shadowing site的資源,結合影片反覆模仿,堅持一週就能明顯感受到進步。記住,口音練習貴在“像”,而影子跟讀法正是快速接近 native 水平的秘訣!
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 |
|---|---|
| “used to” used to + 動詞 — 過去的習慣或狀態,現在已不再如此 | used to play |
| 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 | I've just been · i've now agreed · I've ever seen |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | has been handed |
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。
