1
Hi, Coleman.
2
How are you?
3
Good, thanks.
4
I wanted to have a chat with you
5
because our friend Josh told me that you've joined a guitar group and it sounds interesting.
6
I'd really like to learn myself.
7
Why don't you come along?
8
I'm sure there's room for another person.
9
Really?
10
So, who runs the classes?
11
He's called a coordinator.
12
His name's Gary Matheson.
13
Let me note that down.
14
Gary.. how do you spell his surname?
15
It's M-A-T-H-I-E-S-O-N.
16
Right, thanks.
17
He's retired, actually, but he's a really nice guy and he used to play in a lot of bands.
18
Thanks.
19
So, how long have you been going?
20
About a month now.
21
And could you play anything before you started?
22
I knew a few chords, but that's all.
23
I'm sure everyone will be better than me.
24
That's what I thought too.
25
When I first spoke to Gary on the phone, he said it was a class for beginners, but I was still worried that everyone would be better than me.
26
But we were all equally hopeless.
27
Oh, that's reassuring.
28
So where do you meet?
29
Well, when I joined the group, they were meeting in Gary's home.
30
But as the group got bigger, he decided to book a room at the college in town.
31
I prefer going there.
32
I know that place.
33
I used to go to tap dancing classes there when I was at secondary school.
34
I haven't been since, though, and I can't remember what road it's in.
35
Is it Lock Street?
36
It's just beyond there, at the bottom of New Street, near the city roundabout.
37
Yes, of course.
38
The guitar club is on the first floor in room T347.
39
Right.
40
And when do you meet?
41
Is it at the weekend?
42
We meet on Thursdays.
43
It used to be 10.30 and that suited me well.
44
But now we meet at 11.
45
The class that's in there before us asked if they could have the room for another thirty minutes.
46
Oh, I see.
47
Well, I'd love to come, but I don't have a guitar.
48
Well, you can always buy a second-hand one.
49
There's a website called The Perfect Instrument that sells all kinds of guitars, violins and so on.
50
I'm sure you'll find something there.
51
So, what's a typical lesson like with Gary?
52
Well, he always starts by getting us to tune our guitars.
53
That takes about five minutes.
54
Uh-huh.
55
Some people have an app they use, but others do it by ear.
56
Gary goes round and helps them.
57
And while he's doing that, he tells us what he's going to do during the lesson.
58
Right.
59
First, we usually spend about ten minutes doing some strumming.
60
So, is that using...oh, what are they called?
61
Plectrums?
62
No, we just use our thumbs.
63
Much easier.
64
Gary reminds us where to put our fingers for each chord and then we play them together.
65
Sometimes we all just start laughing because we're so bad at keeping time.
66
So Gary starts clapping to help us.
67
Do you learn to play any songs?
68
Yes.
69
We do at least one song with words and chords.
70
I mean, that's harder than you think.
71
Oh, I'm sure it is.
72
That part of the lesson takes about 15 minutes.
73
He often brings a recording of the song and plays it to us first.
74
Then he hands out the song and if there's a new chord in it, we practice that before we play it together, but really slowly.
75
Do you do any finger picking?
76
That's the last ten minutes of the lesson, when we pick out the individual notes from a tune he's made up.
77
It's always quite simple.
78
That must be hard, though.
79
It is.
80
But people like it because they can really concentrate.
81
And if we're all playing well, it sounds quite impressive.
82
The only trouble is that he sometimes gets us to play one at a time.
83
You know, alone.
84
Oh, that's scary.
85
It is.
86
But I've got used to it now.
87
At the end, he spends about five minutes telling us what to practice for the following week.
88
Well, thanks, Coleman.
89
I'll go and have a look at that website, I think.

逐步影子跟讀指南
想要提高英語發音,不妨嘗試“shadowspeak”或“英語影子跟讀”技術。在學習這段對話時,可以按照以下步驟進行練習:
- 聽力理解 - 首先仔細聆聽對話內容,捕捉每個細節。可以藉助音訊材料反覆聽,從中理解對話的背景和氛圍。
- 文本閱讀 - 閱讀對話的文字稿,注意每個發音及語調,幫助理解句子的結構和含義。
- 模仿跟讀 - 使用影子跟讀技術,跟隨音訊朗讀。初次可以慢速跟讀,逐漸加快速度,確保每個詞的發音清晰無誤。
- 錄音反饋 - 錄下自己的聲音,與原音訊進行比較,找出發音的不同之處,並加以糾正。
- 定期練習 - 將此過程納入日常學習,選擇不同的對話材料,持續提升語言能力。
通過以上步驟,配合合適的學習工具和網站,可以有效提高英語發音,使您的交流更加流暢。挑戰自己的同時,請記得經常使用“shadow speak”和“shadowing site”來檢驗和提高自己的語言技能。

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。
