1
This is terrible.
2
Now I'll never get the stain out.
3
Actually, the stain is gone.
4
It is?
5
Yeah, so is the nose.
6
Oh no!
7
It turned out dogs like plum sauce.
8
And dragon noses.
9
After that dog! And playing chase.
10
Now it's really ruined.
11
George had an idea.
12
He'd broken a few things before, too.
13
George?
14
George?
15
George?
16
Okay, he'd broken lots of things.
17
And that's why he had lots of art supplies at home.
18
Uh, it's kinda close, George,
19
but it has to look the same as the old nose.
20
Why?
21
It's important.
22
It's a tradition.
23
George remembered the old nose had red and gold stripes, and it was curvy.
24
He didn't have anything like that, so he'd have to make the new nose.
25
out of red and gold yarn.
26
Good try, George.
27
But that nose is a little too.. droopy.
28
The trick was to find the right material.
29
Felt wouldn't do the job. And neither would Ribbon.
30
Ha ha!
31
Pipe cleaners!
32
Great idea, George!
33
They're strong and bendy!
34
Ha ha!
35
Perfect!
36
But the rest of the dragon head is covered in red cloth.
37
We need red cloth to cover the new nose. And fast!
38
The napkins were perfect.
39
And a little while later, the nose was as good as new.
40
The dragon looks wonderful. But it's too late.
41
The parade has already started.
42
Wait, you said the parade ends with the dragon dance.
43
Yeah, but it's so late, I'm not even sure we can make it before it ends.
44
Are you kidding?
45
We'll take a shortcut through the park.
46
With all the practice we've had, we're dragon masters now.
47
Okay, let's try.
48
So they were like a dragon.
49
It's nice and wide open here.
50
Nothing to watch out for.
51
They kept their eyes forward.
52
Ah!
53
Tree!
54
They stayed in a line...
55
...and kept an even distance.
56
Pum dragon!
57
Hi!
58
It's that dog again!
59
Run!
60
Me like a dragon!
61
Oh, my God.
62
Whoa!
63
Whoa!
64
Ah!
65
Whoa!
66
Yeah!
67
Excuse me!
68
Rex!
69
Thank goodness!
70
That dragon could have hurt my weirdo baby!
71
By the time they reached the other end of the park, the three were dragon masters.
72
We did it!
73
Great dragoning, guys.
74
You're an awesome tummy and tail.
75
Awwww.
76
Gracias.
77
Ah, where did she go?
78
Hey, Dad!
79
Lily, where have you been?
80
Never mind.
81
I have some bad news.
82
Your cousins are still stuck in traffic.
83
There's no one to help you be the dragon.
84
I'm sorry.
85
Hang on, I know a couple of experts!
86
Yeah!
87
Woohoo!
88
And that's how, with a little practice and the right materials, a monkey became a dragon.

為何這個片段是絕佳的英語口語練習素材?
《好奇喬治》裡的這段舞龍情節,對話生動自然,充滿日常口語表達,特別適合用來練shadowing。片段裡的句子簡短易懂,還帶著豐富的情緒變化,比如著急、驚喜、興奮,能幫助學習者模模擬實語境中的語調。而且內容圍繞“修復龍鼻子”展開,情節連貫,容易跟上,就算是新手也能快速進入狀態,是非常棒的shadow speak練習材料。
拆解自然表達,學習地道口語
我們來看看幾個讓對話聽起來超自然的句子:
- “This is terrible. Now I'll never get the stain out.” 前半句直接表達糟糕的情緒,後半句用“never”強化無奈,這種短句組合在口語中很常見,符合人在情急時的表達習慣。
- “Good try, George. But that nose is a little too... droopy.” “Good try”是鼓勵的常用語,後半句用省略號和“droopy”(下垂的)生動描述問題,既真實又親切,體現了對話中的互動感。
- “Are you kidding? We'll take a shortcut through the park.” “Are you kidding?”用來表示驚訝,緊接著提出解決方案,節奏緊湊,像極了日常聊天時的反應,適合練習口語的流暢度。
簡單實用的shadowing練習步驟
想要用好這個片段練口語,試試這個repeat-and-record的方法:
- 先完整看一遍影片,熟悉情節和語調。
- 逐句播放,每句暫停後模仿發音、語調和節奏,這就是shadowing的核心。比如練“With all the practice we've had, we're dragon masters now.”時,注意“we've had”的弱讀和“dragon masters”的重音。
- 用手機錄下自己的模仿,對比原音,找出語調或節奏的差異,反覆調整。
- 最後連貫播放片段,跟著全程shadow speak,感受自然對話的流暢感。
堅持用這個方法練習,你的英語口語會越來越地道。記得找個合適的shadowing site,多積累這類生動的素材,進步會更快哦!
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 | has already started · we've had · have you been |
| “will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測 | I'll never get · We'll take |
| 義務:must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的 | has to look · have to make |
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。
