Last spring, I was packing up my old bedroom at my parents' house.

At the bottom of a box, I found an envelope in my handwriting.

Wait... it was addressed to Hannah, my best friend from school!

I sat on the floor and read it for the first time in eleven years.

我坐在地板上，十一年來第一次讀了它。

Oh, it was so silly, so dramatic, so nineteen!

But at the end, I'd written... you're the sister I never had.

可是在信的最後，我寫著……你就是我從沒有過的姐妹。

And I started crying, right there between the boxes.

Well... I didn't even know if she still lived in Edinburgh.

I bought a stamp, wrote a short note, and posted the old letter.

Then I waited. One week... two weeks... nothing.

然後我等啊等。一個星期……兩個星期……什麼都沒有。

What if she was still angry? What if she'd forgotten me?

萬一她還在生氣呢？萬一她已經把我忘了呢？

Then one morning, guess what was on my doormat?

然後有一天早上，你猜我家門口的地墊上有什麼？

A letter from Hannah! I opened it with shaking hands.

是Hannah寄來的信！我雙手發抖地拆開了它。

Inside was a photo of us at sixteen, laughing on a beach.

So, if there's a letter you never sent... maybe it's not too late.

所以，如果你也有一封從未寄出的信……也許還不算太晚。

Write it, post it, and see what happens.

寫下來，寄出去，看看會發生什麼。

詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚，後面不要加母音: stamp /stæmp/, dramatic /dɹəˈmætɪk/, shake /ˈʃeɪk/, envelope /ˈɛnvə(ˌ)loʊp/, laugh /læf/
/æ/ — 嘴張大，不要讀成 /e/: stamp /stæmp/, dramatic /dɹəˈmætɪk/, handwriting /ˈhændɹaɪtɪŋ/, laugh /læf/, angry /ˈæŋ.ɡɹi/

如何用這段影片練習

先完整聽一遍影片，不要開口，記下不認識的單詞。
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。
錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 litter, stamp, bedroom 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。
