1
Hey, Afton!
2
Hey, Louise!
3
Whatcha doing?
4
I'm working on this character lesson, and honestly I'm struggling a bit.
5
How do you make an audience care about a character?
6
That's a really hard one.
7
You ever heard of the elevator test?
8
No, what's that?
9
So, when you're struggling with your character and you're trying to figure out who they really are, it helps a lot to put them in an elevator.
10
What was that?
11
Okay, it's okay.
12
Okay, Louise, how about you tell me about the elevator thing?
13
Oh, okay, yeah, um, so when you're trying to figure out your characters,
14
it helps to trap them in an elevator and see how they'd react in a crisis.
15
Get me out of the air!
16
Hey, are you out there?
17
The elevator's stuck!
18
Really, really stuck!
19
Let's try this one.
20
Okay, lights!
21
Okay, what's next?
22
Okay, we're late for meetings.
23
Um, someone will notice that we're gone.
24
Breathe in.
25
Must be a trapdoor somewhere.
26
Breathe out!
27
It's not working!
28
Okay.
29
Louise, are you okay?
30
I'm fine!
31
Hello?
32
Have you completed the exercise?
33
Uh, yeah!
34
Get us out of this elevator!
35
This is elevator.
36
Did my exercise help you think about your characters and how they might behave when they are in difficult situations?
37
You've got to be kidding me!
38
Let us out of here!
39
Well, hang on, Elise.
40
I think it actually worked.
41
I got good insight into what people actually do in a crisis.
42
How about you?
43
Oh, well, I, um...
44
Clearly, the exercise worked, and you discovered something different about each character.
45
And as a bonus, you've discovered that entertaining characters are often deeply flawed.
46
Don't worry, those flaws can also be the key to why audiences care about them.
47
Your characters will be the people, rats, fish, cars, or robots, that we follow through the whole story,
48
the lessons they learn, the challenges they face, and the feelings they feel will be shared by the audience.
49
And when you are struggling to create a character that the audience cares about, there are many other exercises you can try.
50
Right on, elevator!
51
That's what this lesson is all about, playing with character.
52
And remember, I'm always here to help you take your storytelling to the next level.
53
Bye elevator!
54
Bye elevator!
55
I sure hope my next passenger is a tidier character.

練習技巧
為了有效地進行英語影子跟讀，特別是在此影片的語速和語調下，您可以採取以下步驟：
- 模仿練習: 觀看影片時，跟隨說話者的語速，儘量模仿他們的發音和語調。這種shadow speak的方法能夠幫助您更好地內化語言的節奏和情感。
- 逐段跟讀: 將影片分成若干段落，每次集中精力練習一小段，以確保您能夠理解並正確發音每一句話。
- 情緒投入: 嘗試在練習時表演出影片中的情感，例如緊張或焦慮。這將有助於提高您在雅思口語練習中的表現。
- 記錄並回放: 自己閱讀時錄音，然後與影片中的原聲進行對比。看看在表達技巧和情感上，您可以在哪些地方進一步改進。
通過結合這些練習技巧，您將能夠提升自己的英語口語練習水平，讓自己在溝通中更加自信和流利。
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 | Have you completed · you've discovered |
| 現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事 | I'm working · you're struggling · you're trying |
| “will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測 | will notice · will be |
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。
