1
You described to us how you met Jim Sheridan.
2
Now this was the beginning of a real collaboration between you and Jim Sheridan.
3
And to me it seems to be also parallel in your life with a real affection for things Irish, for people Irish, for the culture Irish.
4
Do you think that that began with the relationship with Jim Sheridan?
5
Or do you think that your interest in Jim Sheridan and your interest in that story, and In the Name of the Father and the Boxer, part of your trilogy of Irish films,
6
Do you think that they came out of what was there already?
7
Well as much as I love Jim Sheridan and as Much as he has been a great influence in my life.
8
I couldn't really give him the credit
9
For that too it was really the other way around
10
because my father I suppose I was probably four years old when I first
11
Went with my father with my family to to the west of Ireland
12
He wasn't from the West actually was from from County Leash
13
which had been called Queens County in the old days and And from an early age, we began to think of it as being a place that was,
14
if not home, certainly as close to home and perhaps something almost better than home, which was a sanctuary, a place that you could escape to and always find what you were looking for,
15
a certain quietude.
16
And I grew up in England, and I mean, I am by culture and education an Englishman, and I've never tried to deny it,
17
but I suppose in some sense, and I might share this with a lot of people that work in the performing arts,
18
I felt a sense of alienation within my own society.
19
And something about the nature of the class system there appalled me, as it had done my parents too.
20
And Ireland always beckoned throughout the years, and I was fairly confident that at some time I would move over there.
21
Your dad was a successful writer of detective stories and also a poet,
22
but your grandfather started in the film industry when it was silent, 1922.
23
And for 40 years, Michael Balkin, later Sir Michael Balkin, literally dominated the industry.
24
He created Ealing Studios, where all those spectacular black and white films came from.
25
When you were a little boy, Anyway, was that where you were introduced to the movies through your grandfather?
26
I wasn't really introduced to movies, Richard.
27
I mean, I didn't know what my grandfather did until I was quite a bit older.
28
When I discovered the Ealing Commodays,
29
it was quite a revelation to me because my grandfather had long since retired from the business,
30
and I grew very close to him after my father died and grew very, very fond of him.
31
But as a young kid,
32
he was quite an intimidating character and I don't remember ever having many conversations with him. But really,
33
I suppose the theater was more of an influence through my
34
mother who had started out her life as an actress and when she married my father, she more or less put that to one side,
35
but still occasionally did things.
36
And it was, and her father, my grandfather, was appalled when she became an actress.
37
I mean, he thought it was the next thing to becoming a hooker as far as he was concerned.
38
It was that, you know, it was an absolutely unacceptable.
39
You're going on the stage.
40
You're going on the stage.
41
My daughter was going on the stage.
42
I know, it was outrageous.
43
Well, that caused a storm in the house.
44
But it was through my mom that I began to meet a few people.
45
And we lived, I watched from the top window of our house as they rebuilt from the ground up a cinema
46
that had been bombed during the war.
47
And they built it into a theater, which is now the Greenwich Theater.
48
And my mother always sort of made it clear to anyone
49
that was working at the theater that the house was open to them
50
if they wanted to just come and relax and spend a bit of time there.
51
And I got to meet some lovely people during that time.
52
One of the things I read that you wrote a long time ago is you said, as a youngster, I rather liked actors because I found them to be generous and warm-hearted people.
53
Well, now you know actors.
54
Do you still think that that's true?
55
Yes, I do.
56
You do?
57
Yes, I do.
58
Do you remember when you said to your folks, I think this is the career I've chosen.
59
I think I want to go into theater.
60
I want to be an actor.
61
I think I kind of kept it to myself for a while.
62
I think it was more of a kind of private decision I made when I was around 12.
63
But it seemed to be a decision made out of necessity, because at that time I was just really a layabout
64
and the only time I ever really used energy it more
65
or less got me into trouble some kind or another and
66
and like many people the theater seemed a forgiving trade
67
and my first boarding school that I was sent to
68
which was absolutely unforgiving in pretty much every respect all the reprobates congregated in the art room not
69
because we were artists
70
because there was just this tiny little corridor of of of liberty of some kind in that place and so
71
um it began there strangely in this hugely restrictive environment where the world seemed pretty bleak
72
because a boarding school is your world whatever lies outside of
73
it is eclipsed by the by by the the day-to-day horror
74
and i was struggling i mean i was really struggling to keep my head above water
75
so so the theater seemed you know without knowing anything about it the The theater seemed to be the life for me.
76
Excuse me.
77
And I had one moment, I suppose you could call it, as people often talk about defining moments, and mine would seem to have an unpromising orator
78
which was that I was given a bit part in a production of Cry the Beloved Country.
79
Does that play mean anything to you?
80
It's set in South Africa.
81
Yeah, it was a play about the horrors of apartheid.
82
That's exactly right, yeah got it um
83
and i was cast as a little black boy
84
because of course woe betide that there should be any black children in this school
85
or if they were they were hidden away in some in the east wing
86
or something and so i had to and i had a little tiny little t-shirt and a pair of skimpy shorts,
87
and that meant that I had to cover my body in makeup and my face and wear a little wig.
88
And the thing that I really loved about this, for that two hours a night,
89
you walked onto a place that was flooded with light in an otherwise dark world
90
and it was as simple as
91
that even from the very beginning working in the theater I understood certain things about myself
92
and again I'm very grateful for that because it's not it's not invariably true
93
that you understand what it is that you need is an early stage
94
because there's so much you're impelled to do so many things that go against the grain very often.
95
It's you know it's gonna be a tough life
96
and from my point of view I assumed I was gonna have a life in the theatre
97
because very few English actors at that time were getting a chance in movies.
98
Much as I loved films it never really occurred to me that that would be a part of my life.
99
We all really thought we were gonna work in the theatre
100
and maybe do a bit of TV to pay the bills
101
now and then so
102
and the theater world is very different you know the theater
103
world is not it's you know you may I suppose gain some recognition
104
but it's just not it's not in the say you know
105
what I'm talking about it's not to the same degree you go out
106
and you play to 800 people right 900 yeah night here a movie goes out
107
and you're that big to most of them as well If they've got the cheat sheets, you're like, you need binoculars to see who you are.
108
So, you know, and that was my early years spent working in the theater.
109
I knew that the capacity to do this work was something that was a delicate thing.
110
Whatever it was at one's very core that led one to do this work,
111
I knew that it was not indestructible and that if I kept putting myself in situations that made me uneasy,
112
which could be doing work that i didn't believe in even when i didn't have a choice in the matter
113
or having to hulk myself around even auditions this sounds like horribly arrogant
114
but open auditions i did a couple of those for the rsc
115
and the national where you sit in a room with 50 other
116
miserable actors working on a piece of shakespeare and then you walk into a room with seven
117
men all puffed up with self-importance and you know you strut around
118
and they they look at you like a specimen of some kind.
119
And I went up.

關於本課

在本課中,學習者將通過觀看Daniel Day-Lewis與Jim Sheridan的對話,探索與愛爾蘭文化相關的英語表達方式。同時,學習者將練習如何有效地運用陰影語音(shadow speech)技術,提升他們的英語口語技能。我們將特別關注如何在生活經驗和文化背景中提取語言要素,通過這種語境化學習,提高英語發音和口語流利度。

關鍵詞彙與短語

  • 合作 (collaboration) - 意指與他人一起工作的過程。
  • 影響 (influence) - 指對某人的思想或行為產生改變的力量。
  • 文化 (culture) - 一個社會的共同價值、信仰、藝術和習俗。
  • 外國 (alienation) - 在自己的社會中感到疏遠的狀態。
  • 避風港 (sanctuary) - 指一個讓人感到安全和放鬆的地方。
  • 劇院 (theater) - 進行表演和觀賞戲劇的場所。
  • 演員 (actress) - 參與演出戲劇或電影的女性。
  • 電影院 (cinema) - 放映電影的場所。

練習技巧

為了最大化你的學習效果,建議在觀看影片時運用陰影語音(shadowspeak)技術。首先,將影片的播放速度調整至適合你的水平,通常建議從慢速開始。其次,嘗試逐句重複說話者的每一句話,注意模仿他們的語調和節奏。這樣的練習有助於提高英語發音和英語口語練習的自信心。

在進行影子練習時,給予自己適當的時間來反應和模仿,而不是急於跟上。比如在觀看Daniel Day-Lewis的訪談時,可以暫停影片,反覆練習他說的每一句,尤其是涵蓋文化方面的表達。通過這樣的沉浸式學習,你將能夠在輕鬆的氛圍中提高你的語言能力。

最後,建議你在學習過程中,結合相關的文化背景深入理解使用的語言,讓你的學習不再侷限於語言本身,而是融入到更廣闊的文化交流中。通過看YouTube學英語,你將能夠得到更為生動、真實的口語學習體驗。

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had been called · were introduced · wasn't really introduced
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has been · I've never tried · I've chosen
定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物home, which was · theater, which is

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。
