Hi! I'd like to return this smart watch, if that's possible.

Sure. Was it a Christmas present, or did you buy it yourself?

Just the gift receipt, which was tucked inside the box.
只有禮品收據，是夾在盒子裡的。

9
Also, all items must be returned within thirty days of purchase.
另外，所有商品都必須在購買後30天內退回。
10
That's fine. He bought it just before Christmas, so there's plenty of time.

Wait, this box has already been opened!

20
That's fair enough. Let me scan the gift receipt and see what comes up.
您說得有道理。我掃一下禮品收據，看看能查到什麼。
21
It scanned fine, but nothing's showing up, which is a bit odd.
掃是掃上了，可什麼都沒顯示，有點奇怪。
22
Oh no. It must have been bought online, then.

28
It's clearly never been worn, so I won't worry about the opened box.

Great choice! So your uncle's gift is still paying for them, technically.

33
True! I just wish he'd asked me what I wanted first.

影片中的語法

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was tucked · be exchanged · must be returned

中文母語者容易讀錯的音：

  • 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚，後面不要加母音: receipt /ɹɪˈsiːt/, electronics /ɪˌlɛkˈtɹɑ.nɪks/, approve /əˈpɹuːv/, refund /ɹɪˈfʌnd/, headphones /ˈhɛdfoʊnz/

如何用這段影片練習

  2. 先用 0.75 倍速逐句跟讀，熟練之後再回到正常速度。
  3. 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 uncle, complain, electronics 這類單詞。

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。
