1
There are 202 species of chameleon in the world that scientists know about.
2
42% of these different types of chameleons live in Madagascar.
3
These creatures are famous for their ability to change color.
4
For a long time, scientists thought chameleons changed color to hide from other animals.
5
But now they know that the main reason chameleons change color is to communicate with each other.
6
Chameleons can change color to attract other chameleons or to warn them to go away.
7
They can use their colors to show that they are angry or scared.
8
Sometimes, their colors also change because of changes in the temperature.
9
So, if chameleons don't change colors to hide from predators,
10
how do they stay safe?
11
It turns out that chameleons stay safe by moving back and forth in a strange way.
12
By following this odd system of movements,
13
the chameleon looks less like a moving animal and more like a leaf being blown by the wind.
14
A chameleon's tongue is very long and moves very fast.
15
To catch food, a chameleon hides in the trees until an insect walks by.
16
Then, it shoots out its tongue to catch the insect.
17
A chameleon can catch insects as far away as two times its body length.
18
A chameleon's tongue is made of bone and muscles.
19
And the end of its tongue is very sticky.
20
The muscles at the back of the tongue prepare the sticky parts to shoot out,
21
just like how a person pulls back the string of a bow to get ready to shoot an arrow.
22
Then they let go.
23
The tongue shoots forward at a great speed,
24
and the insect is caught in the blink of an eye.
25
Chameleons are amazing creatures, but like many other animals, they're in trouble.
26
Many species of chameleons are endangered.
27
This is because the forests and other areas where they live are disappearing or are being changed by people.
28
And when the area is changed too much,
29
it becomes hard for chameleons to live there.
30
Scientists are working to help endangered chameleon species by learning as much as they can about these colorful creatures.

關於本節課
在本節課中,學習者將通過觀看關於變色龍的精彩影片,練習英語口語。通過了解變色龍的習性及其生存技巧,您將學習如何用英語表達複雜的概念,並增強您的語言組織能力。同時,這一內容也將幫助您積累有趣的詞彙和短語,提升您的英語表達能力。
關鍵詞彙與短語
- 變色龍 (chameleon) - 一種以變化顏色著稱的爬行動物。
- 棲息地 (habitat) - 變色龍所生活及生長的環境。
- 如風吹動的葉子 (like a leaf being blown by the wind) - 描述變色龍移動方式的比喻。
- 捕食 (catch food) - 變色龍獲取食物的動作。
- 粘性 (sticky) - 形容變色龍舌頭的特性,有助於捕蟲。
- 瀕危 (endangered) - 描述某些變色龍物種面臨的生存威脅。
- 科學家 (scientists) - 研究和保護變色龍的專業人員。
練習技巧
在進行英語口語練習時,使用您所學的關鍵詞彙和短語是非常重要的。觀看影片時,可以嘗試通過 shadowspeak 的方式,跟隨影片中的發音和語調進行模仿。注意變色龍的介紹節奏,影片的語速比較適中,適合進行 英語口語練習。
在重言詞句時,儘量模仿講話者的感情和語調,幫助您更好地掌握自然對話的能力。您也可以多次播放相同片段,通過 shadowing site 實踐不同的句子。此外,您可以嘗試停頓並思考如何用自己的話來解釋變色龍的習性。這種方式不僅鍛鍊您的口語能力,還能提升您的理解能力。
如需進一步練習,請嘗試在同伴面前複述影片內容,或者錄製自己的練習,回放時注意改進自己的語音和語調。這樣可以讓您逐漸自信,並提高您在 shadow speaks 式對話中的表現。
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。
