Hi.
5
I'm in a new shopping centre with some guys who've been finding out a bit more about the place.
6
Kerry.
7
Yeah, first let me tell you where it is.
8
You know you'd expect to drive for miles out into the countryside to a place among green fields.
9
When they build them in the country, everyone has to get there by car, but at least then the parking's easy.
10
This new one's taken over some abandoned industrial land on the outskirts of the city and it's pulling in young people, families, everyone, so there's a really great atmosphere.
11
So why do you think they went for this particular site, Salim?
12
Well, apparently they were offered a place in the country and the plans were approved, but they chose this place for its convenient access from the station and the motorway.
13
The locals did start kicking up a fuss about traffic noise
14
and fumes and that sort of thing
15
So it took quite a long time to get things started
16
But they managed to get permission in the end But why do you think there are such masses of people here now?
17
What's behind its popularity?
18
Well, you see, people don't just come to shop They come to spend the
19
day There are tons of good stores with branches here So even though you end up spending quite a bit In general,
20
the stuff's good quality and there's something here for everyone.
21
It caters for every taste, including people like myself, who'd rather not shop at all, but would prefer to take in a film or hit the gym instead.
22
So, you see lots of families having fun here too, without having to hang around with each other the whole time.
23
Dad goes off to look at sports equipment or electronics, while Mum hunts for clothes, you know, that sort of thing.
24
From where I'm standing now I can see trees and fountains.
25
There are cafes, music for chilling out and even a free fashion show.
26
It's a bit of a change from your normal high street
27
isn't it yeah it's incredible isn't it you know these places
28
are pretty safe i mean i know some rough lads come here
29
but with all the security staff around there's never any trouble
30
but what i really like is
31
that the place feels a bit like a palace you know
32
i can spend all day here with my friends surrounded by
33
all this expensive stuff without it costing me a penny people treat you pretty well
34
and you don't have to spend anything unless you want to.
35
We're always hearing about families having arguments when they go shopping.
36
Why's that?
37
Apparently it's because they're spending the day together and their tastes in how to spend their free time are different.
38
So they get irritable with each other and this breaks down into arguments about which shops to go to and so on.
39
And this place is organised to cater for different tastes, isn't it?
40
Well, yeah, what they've done is organised the shops, cafes and other places, so there's a wide range of quite different shops in each section.
41
This means that families can still be fairly close to each other, even though they're up to different things.
42
You know, Mum can wander into the clothes shop if that's what she wants to do, while Dad can pop into the computer shop next door, and the kids can go to a game shop or a music shop.
43
They're all nearby and they can find each other easily.
44
And what else have they done, Salim?
45
Well, they've come up with ways of making shopping less tiring.
46
You know, a day's shopping wears people out.
47
They thought of hiring out small electrically driven cars to shoppers to cut down the amount they walk.
48
They came up against problems of space.
49
There just wasn't enough room for them all.
50
So they also thought about those moving walkways you see at airports, and that would have involved redesigning everything.
51
What they actually came up with is a new technology which sends everything you've bought to your exit point
52
and you just pick it up there.
53
Awesome.
54
Thanks Kerry and Salim.
55
Cheers.

你的影子跟讀挑戰
開啟影片,找到對話中討論“家庭購物不爭吵”的部分(從“我們總聽說家庭購物時爭吵”開始)。使用shadowing site的方法,逐句跟讀,注意模仿說話人的語調和節奏。完成後,用自己的話總結“購物中心如何避免家庭爭吵”,錄音並對比原對話。這個練習能有效提升shadowspeak能力,讓你在真實場景中更流暢地表達。
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 | they've done · have they done · they've come |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | were offered · is organised |
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。
