went home to your great-grandmother,

took the watch off, put an old coffee can,

So three days before the Japanese took the island,
50
your granddad asked a gunner on an Air Force transport named a Wanaki,
51
a man he'd never met before in his life,
52
to deliver to his infant son we'd never seen in the flesh, his gold watch.
53
Three days later, your granddad was dead,

but Warnocky kept his word.

he paid a visit to your grandmother,

delivering to your infant father his dad's gold watch.

This watch.

It'd be confiscated, taken away.

The way your dad looked at it,
64
this watch was your birthright.
65
You'd be damned if any slope's gonna put the greasy other hands on his boy's birthright.

So he hid it.

In one place he knew he could hide something, his ass.

Five long years he wore this watch up his ass.
69
Then he died of dysentery.

Give me the watch.

I hid this uncomfortable hunk of metal up my ass two years.
72
Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family.
73
And now, little man, I give the watch to you.

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。
