1
so I'm here with Angela and in a previous interview we were talking about kids
2
and technology and devices and how these days often people look at their device
3
when they're with another person how do you feel about
4
that like if you're eating with somebody you're at dinner is it okay to check your phone
5
We have a rule in our house, no phones at the table.
6
Very nice.
7
Absolutely no phones.
8
Because you know, you see people, they meet in restaurants, they sit around a table, the food comes, but everybody's looking into their phone
9
and engaging with whatever they're doing on their phone and not talking to the people who have met them.
10
And you see people walking on the subway, the street, head in their phone.
11
It's, you know...
12
It is crazy.
13
It's really sad.
14
And if you think about it, we used to have, you know, manners, things you couldn't do.
15
For example, no elbows on the table, no hats inside the house I mean it sounds silly
16
but I remember those rules as a kid you know the one
17
that was really hard was the no elbows on the table yeah
18
so it's interesting
19
that we don't have new rules like we should reinvent them
20
like you can't have your phone on during the plane
21
when it takes off so your rule is a really good idea yeah
22
so you're an English teacher what do you think about phones in the classroom
23
if they're on a break I always call it their text break
24
because when I'm teaching English out here I find
25
that people have got their phone to their hand
26
and maybe they're googling a word or something
27
so it's not not too much of a distraction but
28
when you stop them for a break as soon as you
29
say let's have a break now they're all out with their phones
30
and they're sitting individually looking at their phones and it's silence I know you mean like I'll I'll teach.
31
And it used to be you would say, okay, take a break.
32
And it would be really loud.
33
They would start talking with each other.
34
And these days, it's just silence.
35
They just go and they do that motion of just flicking with their finger as they're scrolling down.
36
And I know I just sound like some old guy.
37
Hey, get off my lawn.
38
And I have the same problem.
39
I want to check my phone all the time.
40
But I have to admit, it's strange, I think.
41
Yes, yes.
42
And now you need to even check your phone.
43
You can just look at your Apple Watch or your watch on your wrist.
44
It's going to tell you if your phone needs your attention.
45
Well, it used to be where I would say things like, you know, as a teacher, you're teaching, and you can see if a student's looking down at their phone.
46
Yes.
47
And I would say, hey, don't check your phone.
48
But now these days, kids actually call me on it.
49
They're like, oh, I'm looking up a word, or oh, I'm checking something.
50
And they literally are checking something.
51
And the kids are good at using their phone as a learning tool.
52
Yes, I think that's fine.
53
So it's a gray area these days.
54
Yeah.
55
Yeah.
56
So when you're with somebody, you never pop out your phone.
57
I would admit that I would be guilty of checking my phone in my bag, but I would never get it out and go on Facebook or Instagram and stop Instagramming.
58
I would just look at it and put it away.
59
Yeah.
60
There's other things I've done.
61
I mean, it could be because I'm getting older.
62
But, for example, I try not to listen to my iPod so much anymore or my phone, radio, music, whatever.
63
I actually just try to listen.
64
I notice that when I'm always listening to everything, I kind of tune the world out and I might miss things.
65
You will miss things.
66
And, you know, you see people, I've been quite tempted some days to put my earphones in and walk to the BTS.
67
But actually I think, no, you'd miss the traffic noise, you'd miss the tuk-tuks, you'd miss a dimension of the world that's happening around you.
68
And then you get on the BTS and everybody in the carriage is head down in the same position on their phones.
69
yeah
70
and actually I don't do it just for that reason
71
because I notice that I'm missing out it's so tempting but I might see something

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。
