值得反覆跟讀的句子

影片中簡短而完整的句子，可以直接用在日常對話裡：

  • How many questions did you ask yesterday?
  • I explained it simply, but he just asked, why?
  • I say, great question, let's find out together!
  • We've looked up spiders, volcanoes, and why cats purr.
  • Ask them, what do you think?

需要注意的發音

說話人用了 6 次縮略和弱讀形式，例如 don't, aren't, didn't。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。

中文母語者容易讀錯的音：

  • /v/ — 不要讀成 /w/，上齒輕觸下唇: twelve /twɛlv/, volcano /vɑlˈkeɪ.noʊ/
  • 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚，後面不要加母音: twelve /twɛlv/, reward /ɹɪˈwɔɹd/, scientist /ˈsaɪəntəst/, psychologist /ˌsaɪˈkɑl.ə.d͡ʒɪst/, teach /ˈtiːt͡ʃ/

如何用這段影片練習

  1. 先完整聽一遍影片，不要開口，記下不認識的單詞。
  2. 用正常速度逐句跟讀，每句重複到你的節奏與說話人一致為止。
  3. 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 reward, spider, scientist 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。
