Can you name this man?

Anthony Albanese!

Do you know who this guy is?

Nah, I've got no clue.

That's the opposition leader.

Do you know who this man is?

His name starts with an M, I think.

I don't know.

What's the name of the celebrity seal that visits Tasmania?

Is it Neil the Seal?

Neil the Seal.

Which country hosted the 2026 Pacific Islands Forum?

Um...

If you find you're not exactly on top of the news, well, you're not alone.

Do you keep up with the news?

No, I do not.

Sometimes, sometimes I do.

A lot, actually.

I watch all the deep dives.

If it pops up on my TikTok or, like, social media.

Some adults also don't like watching the news because it is so, well, boring.

If I'm at the TV, yes, I watch it.

I've never watched it in my life.

A recent survey of 1,027 young people aged between 10 and 17 found that young people's news engagement has dropped since 2023.

Fewer are following up on news stories they hear about, fewer are following news stories on social media, and fewer are checking news websites or apps.

Get your morning paper, Morning Star.

There was a time when the news was part of the daily routine.

Newspapers at breakfast, the 6 o'clock news at night.

Hello there.

Then, in the 90s, the internet took off.

And the way we consumed our news started to change.

That's the sound of the internet, by the way.

Over the last decade, social media has been a big source of news, especially for young people.

But then this happened.

If you're under 16, you're no longer allowed to have a social media account.

A significant consequence here is the social media ban.

This is Professor Tanya Notley, one of the researchers from the study.

She says the social media ban has probably had an impact on news consumption.

A lot of the news that young people get on social media is incidental.

It's news they weren't looking for it, but they came across it.

And that then might lead them looking at other sources because they found out about something.

That said, social media is still a pretty popular place to get news, coming in third after family and friends,

above-life TV, news websites and radio.

Meanwhile, a fairly small but growing number of young people say they're using AI to find out about the news regularly.

Like, sometimes we use Google AI to find out something, if it's, like, true or not.

I don't know, I just need something quick.

I'll just chuck in AI so it gives me the answer.

Do you find it reliable, then, for news?

Oh, absolutely.

I use AI a lot for like housework.

For example, like, um, like air fried hash browns are not very crispy, so I like, I try to ask ChatGPT how I can like make them more crispier.

So it's very helpful, very helpful.

Yeah, but what about the news?

Oh, uh, where?

So if you type the news into Google, would you trust it?

No, no way.

The use of AI as a news source has some people worried for a couple of reasons.

For starters, people using AI for their news aren't necessarily clicking through to news websites, which means those websites don't get as much traffic, which can rob them of income.

Then there are worries about accuracy.

Last year, a big study found that AI assistants misrepresent news content 45% of the time, regardless of where you live in the world.

Less than half of young people are confident that they can verify information to work out if news is reliable or not.

But then when we asked about the steps young people take, most young people are not looking at multiple sources, checking the source is reliable.

They're not doing things like a reverse image search

or any of these techniques that you might use to check if news is reliable or not.

So that is a concern when using generative AI.

So I guess the big question is, does any of this matter?

Do you need to know about world leaders, regional forums or transient seals?

They need to keep up to date with the news because, like, they don't know what's, like, out in the real world if they don't look at the news.

You don't want to just be spreading, like, false information to people and telling people, oh, did you hear about this, when it didn't.. might not have even happened.

There could also be important stuff, like, if there's danger around that area or something's happening near where they go, to keep them safe.

Yeah, it is actually pretty important important for all those reasons.

Plus, soon you'll be voting, so it's important to get an understanding of what's happening and how those decisions could affect you.

Which is why experts say it's pretty important for people like

us to do what we can to get people like you interested in the news.

What do you think should be done to make news more engaging for young people?

I feel like making it somehow more interesting and engaging.

There's not stuff that affects high schoolers

or people going from primary to high school there's not enough that's relevant to us to make it interesting.

I think more positive local news instead of more international stuff, unless it's really big events.

If it still was engaging, I don't think young people would still watch it, because they need that dopamine hit.

So, like, Subway Surf is in the bottom.

Like, they need that dopamine hit.

Yeah, I think if they posted positive things about kids and stuff, it would be like, yeah, I'd watch that more.

FOR YOU

你能學到什麼

這段影片能幫你提升兩項實用口語技能：一是日常對話中的資訊詢問與回應，比如如何用自然的語氣表達“不知道”或“有點印象”；二是討論社會現象時的觀點陳述，像影片中年輕人談論新聞消費習慣時，使用“有時候”“其實”等連線詞讓表達更流暢。這些技能非常適合英語口語練習，能讓你在實際交流中更自信。

注意這些發音現象

影片裡有不少連讀和弱讀的例子，比如“got no clue”中“got”和“no”連讀成/ɡɒt nəʊ/，“don't like watching”中“don't”弱讀為/dəʊnt/。還有“social media”的連讀，“social”尾音/l/與“media”開頭的/m/自然銜接。這些連讀技巧能讓你的發音更像母語者，也是提高英語發音的關鍵。

像母語者一樣表達

模仿影片中的節奏和重音很重要。比如“Nah, I've got no clue”，重音在“Nah”和“clue”上，節奏輕快，體現出隨意的語氣；“A lot, actually”中“actually”重讀，強調真實情況。練習時可以用shadowing site進行shadow speech訓練，即邊聽邊跟讀，注意捕捉語氣的起伏。此外，影片中“如果它出現在我的TikTok上”這樣的句式，適合用於看影片學英語時積累，能讓你的表達更貼近生活。

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	I've never watched · has dropped · has been
用 “might / may” 表可能 might/may + 動詞 — 有可能但不確定的事	might lead · might use · might not have
過去進行時 was/were + -ing — 過去某一時刻正在進行的動作	weren't looking · was engaging
現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事	are following · they're using · are not looking

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。
