1
Hey guys, I'm Kaylee from LA.
2
Please like and subscribe.
3
Ever since I was a little girl, I've always loved to sing.
4
My grandma was a professional singer.
5
She sang around the world with the most prestigious orchestras and operas.
6
I miss her and her voice so much.
7
When I got to 10th grade, I became the singer of the family.
8
I went to the most prestigious performing arts school on the West Coast.
9
My favorite class was music, of course, and My favorite club so far was Show Choir.
10
We had been the best in the state for 14 years, with the trophies to prove it.
11
My best friend Addison is also in Show Choir with me.
12
He and I met in kindergarten and have been inseparable ever since.
13
He's the funniest guy I've ever known.
14
He's also gotten pretty cute over the years, too.
15
Or at least, that's what all the girls in school think.
16
But I just don't see him that way.
17
Hard to see someone that way when they used to sneak over from next door and put frogs in your bed.
18
One day, our show choir teacher, Miss Conrad, had big news for us.
19
We've been asked to compete at this year's National Show Choir Competition.
20
All right!
21
Yeah!
22
But to ensure we get top scores, the soloists will have to be chosen very carefully.
23
Miss Conrad told us
24
that we were going to have to audition for the big solo right in front of each other in one week.
25
My nemesis, Heidi, started bragging in front of the whole group.
26
We all know who's going to get it.
27
Me, of course.
28
Everyone knows I have the stage presence of a star.
29
I don't know.
30
I think Kaylee might give you a run for your money.
31
She's got star power and the voice to match.
32
The other's eyes widened.
33
Were they about to fight?
34
Just then, the bell rang.
35
As everyone left the class, I swatted Addison on the arm.
36
Don't start fights with Heidi.
37
She's my biggest competition.
38
That's exactly why you have to stand up for yourself in front of her.
39
I just don't want anyone to think I think I'm better than her.
40
Well then, I guess that's why I'm here.
41
To remind them for you.
42
What would I do without you?
43
Good thing we'll never have to find out.
44
I was so nervous, even though I'd sung in front of our choir before.
45
But the pressure was on.
46
The whole week leading up to auditions, I practiced.
47
In the shower, in the car, between classes.
48
I really wanted to beat out Heidi for the big solo at the end of the show.
49
Finally, audition day arrived.
50
I woke up, put on my cutest outfit, curled my hair, and took extra time with my makeup.
51
After all, if I'm gonna be a big star one day, I might as well start dressing like it now.
52
When I stepped out of my house to walk to school with Addison, his cheeks turned super red.
53
What's wrong?
54
Nothing.
55
You, uh, just look different is all.
56
Your hair is...
57
Oh no, does it look bad?
58
Maybe I should have worn it up.
59
I'll just go change.
60
No, no, leave it.
61
You look good.
62
Great.
63
When I arrived in class, Heidi was sitting in the front row looking totally perfect.
64
What was I thinking?
65
With her shiny hair, big eyes, and as much as I hated to admit it, her beautiful voice, why would anyone ever look twice at me?
66
But I just tried to remember what my grandma would always say.
67
It's not about who sings the loudest or looks the prettiest.
68
As long as your song comes from your heart, people can't help but listen.
69
So I took a deep breath and sat down next to Heidi right in the front row.
70
She gave me a once-over and rolled her eyes.
71
Who cared what she thought?
72
I knew I looked great.
73
Miss Conrad sat down at the piano and called Heidi up first.
74
After she finished singing, I applauded politely along with everyone else.
75
Then it was my turn.
76
I stood confidently and turned to face everyone.
77
Addison gave me a thumbs up from the back row.
78
Such a good friend.
79
Miss Conrad played the opening notes for my song when suddenly, the door to the classroom burst open behind me.
80
I turned to look, and standing in the doorway was the most handsome boy I'd ever seen.
81
Tall with long brown hair that fell perfectly into his eyes.
82
He looked just like a fairy tale prince.
83
My jaw dropped.
84
He handed a note to Miss Conrad.
85
Class, this is our newest addition, Patrick.
86
He waved to everyone, then put his hand on my shoulder, looked deep into my eyes and said, I'm so sorry I interrupted your audition.
87
Knock him dead.
88
Then he took my seat right in the front row.
89
I gulped.
90
Oh, now I was nervous again.
91
I shook off my nerves, took a deep breath, and nodded to Miss Conrad.
92
As she played, I could feel the music filling me up all the way to the top.
93
I opened my mouth to sing and let my song come from my heart.
94
When I finished, the whole class burst into applause.
95
I felt like I was walking on air.
96
Patrick got up to sing something last minute.
97
He was so good.
98
The next day, Miss Conrad put up the list, and I had gotten the solo.
99
And she'd even added a duet in the middle of the show for Patrick to sing with me.
100
Looks like it's you and me, Kaylee.
101
I'm so honored to be singing with someone as talented as you.
102
I felt my cheeks turn red, and he grinned.
103
You're so cute when you blush like that.
104
Be careful, or I might just fall in love.
105
He walked away with a wink at me.
106
I couldn't believe he'd just said that.
107
And neither could Heidi, who'd been listening around the corner.
108
Don't get too comfy with that solo.
109
Once Miss Conrad figures out that you'll cave at the first sign of pressure, I'll be ready to step in.
110
Eavesdrop much?
111
Jealousy isn't your color, Heidi.
112
The next day, we started rehearsing for nationals.
113
Everyone was working so hard, and Patrick and I sounded great together.
114
But when it came to our dance, it was like I'd suddenly grown a second left foot.
115
No, Kaylee, no. Once more from the top.
116
Miss Conrad, I'm happy to come up front and show Kaylee how it's done.
117
Not necessary, but thank you, Heidi.
118
Just here for the team.
119
After I knocked Patrick over by mistake for the third time, Miss Conrad called it a day.
120
Kaylee, please go home and practice, practice, practice.
121
Ugh, I could have wiped that smug look off of Heidi's face.
122
Everyone went to start packing up their bags, and I started to head backstage to get my bag when Patrick came up to me.
123
Hey, gorgeous.
124
Wanna stay in practice a little with me?
125
Then it'll be perfect by tomorrow.
126
Oh, I wouldn't want to impose.
127
Your toes must be all bruised.
128
That's okay.
129
I really don't mind.
130
And I wouldn't mind spending a little quality time with my co-star.
131
Well, if you insist.
132
Just then, Addison came up to us.
133
Hey, Kaylee.
134
Ready to go?
135
That's okay.
136
I should really practice a little longer.
137
I can practice with you.
138
I could use a few run-throughs myself.
139
Oh, um, well, Patrick already offered to stay behind and practice with me here.
140
He did, did he?
141
How are you gonna get home?
142
I can drive her.
143
Oh, do you live in our neighborhood?
144
No, but...
145
I mean, if it's not really convenient for you...
146
I'm not spending time with Kaylee, cause it's convenient.
147
Neither am I.
148
I'm spending time with her because she's cool.
149
My face turned bright red.
150
Did he really mean that?
151
Addison, I'm gonna stay here too, just for a bit to practice.
152
I'll see you later, okay?
153
Fine, if you insist.
154
I'll, uh, see you when you get home.
155
He turned on his heel and walked out.
156
Patrick turned to me with a grin on his face and held out his hand. Shall we?
157
We practiced more and I was finally getting good.
158
Patrick swung me out for our final spin, then pulled me in close and dipped me.
159
That's when I noticed his face was just so close, his ice blue eyes staring deep into mine.
160
Was he gonna kiss me?
161
Just then, all the lights in the theater went out.
162
Patrick dropped me in shock, and I shrieked.
163
All of a sudden, the lights came back on, and Miss Conrad stepped back on stage.
164
Oh, hey kids, I'm so sorry.
165
I didn't realize you were still here.
166
Ugh, I couldn't believe she'd interrupted our moment.
167
Still, we waved goodbye to her and headed out.
168
A little while later, when Patrick dropped me off, he got out of his car to open my door.
169
Such a gentleman.
170
It was nice hanging out tonight.
171
I'll see you tomorrow, superstar.
172
Then he wrapped his arms around me and gave me a big hug.
173
Is this what heaven smelled like?
174
Then I headed up the front walk to my door.
175
So do you like him or something?
176
I whipped around and saw Addison waiting on our front porch swing.
177
I don't know, maybe?
178
He's so cute and really talented.
179
Um, okay.
180
Cool, I guess.
181
Do you still want to practice?
182
That's okay.
183
I think I got it now.
184
Okay, then.
185
Well, um, then I guess I'll see you tomorrow.
186
Here, I got you a milkshake.
187
Hey, thanks.
188
He started crossing the yard towards his house. Is it?
189
Cookies and cream.
190
Your favorite.
191
Thanks.
192
I'll see you tomorrow?
193
You know it.
194
Then it was finally time for nationals.
195
As we arrived at the concert hall, I was overwhelmed by all the other groups here and overheard one girl say to another, She was a little flat at the end.
196
I couldn't believe it.
197
What if I lost us the whole competition?
198
All night and throughout all our warm-ups the next day, it was all I could think about.
199
If I messed up again, I'd be letting everyone down, including myself.
200
And there were several famous music industry people judging the competition.
201
What if I ended my career as a singer before it even started?
202
And then, it was almost time to go up.
203
I tried to calm down, but I was shaking like a leaf.
204
Miss Conrad, Kaylee doesn't look so good.
205
Miss Conrad came over.
206
She looked pretty nervous herself.
207
Kaylee, you look terrible.
208
Are you going to be able to perform?
209
Of course, I...
210
Because if you're sick, I can always put Heidi on.
211
I'm ready to go, Miss Conrad.
212
Just then, I spotted Patrick warming up down the hall.
213
I just need a minute.
214
I raced down the hall towards him.
215
He was stretching, shaking out his hands, jumping up and down.
216
Patrick?
217
His expression was so strange.
218
Was he nervous too?
219
I'm so nervous.
220
Do you think we could practice?
221
Kaylee, I'm kind of busy.
222
What if we...
223
I really just need some space here, Kaylee.
224
Yesterday, you said we were a team.
225
That doesn't feel like a team to me.
226
I can't do this right now.
227
Could you leave me alone?
228
Fighting back tears, I ran down the hall and found a corner backstage.
229
I couldn't let anyone see me so upset, especially not Miss Conrad or Heidi.
230
What was I going to do?
231
Suddenly, Addison stepped out of the shadows.
232
He looked so handsome in his costume.
233
Um, Kaylee, are you okay?
234
I threw my arms around him.
235
He caught me and squeezed tight.
236
I'm so nervous.
237
I overheard one of the other teams say I sounded bad.
238
Miss Conrad is ready to replace me with Heidi.
239
Patrick isn't any help and there's amazing industry people out there and ugh.
240
You sounded amazing in rehearsal.
241
Those other teams were just jealous.
242
Forget about Patrick and Heidi.
243
Remember why you love to sing.
244
What was it your grandma always said?
245
Sing from your heart?
246
Exactly. Do that.
247
I took a few deep breaths, and Addison was right.
248
Will you just run the last part of the number with me? Of course.
249
And there, in our little corner of the theater, we stepped, we twirled, we kicked in time together.
250
Addison took my hand, spun me around, and dipped me low.
251
I felt his arm slip.
252
He was dropping me.
253
But right before I was sure I'd hit the ground, he caught me with a twinkle in his eye.
254
I swatted his arm.
255
You tricked me.
256
I'd never drop you, and even if I did, I'll always be here to catch you.
257
Thank you, Addison.
258
Then he smiled at me so genuinely, and my heart fell into my stomach.
259
What was that?
260
Places, please, students, places.
261
Kaylee, are you ready?
262
Yes, Miss Conrad.
263
As we all rushed to take our spots to start our number, Addison shot me a wink.
264
Knock him dead, superstar.
265
You too.
266
As soon as the lights came up on stage, I felt a little thrill of excitement.
267
We danced, we sang, we twirled.
268
Everyone had brought their A-game.
269
When it came time for my duet with Patrick, we totally nailed it.
270
But any spark that had been there was gone.
271
As the opening chords of my solo began, the lights shined down on me and I opened my mouth.
272
And the music poured from my heart.
273
I knew my grandma was right there with me.
274
I hit my final note and held it out forever as everyone finished their steps behind me.
275
As we struck our final pose, the crowd erupted into applause.
276
A standing ovation!
277
I beamed.
278
We totally nailed it!
279
That night, after all the points had been tallied, all the teams gathered on stage behind the judges, Addison reached for my hand and I squeezed back.
280
Thanks for the pep talk.
281
I could have never done it without you.
282
Of course you could have.
283
I'm just here to remind you.
284
You're always there for me.
285
He leaned in close, and I felt a flutter in my stomach as he whispered in my ear.
286
And I always will be, if you let me.
287
I turned to look directly in his eyes.
288
Kaylee, I have to tell you.
289
Just then, the announcer started announcing the winners.
290
Second place, runner-up.
291
Our whole team clasped hands and took a deep breath together.
292
And the grand prize for this year's National Show Choir Competition goes to...
293
As they said our name, the crowd roared.
294
It was so loud I could hardly think.
295
Confetti rained down on us as Miss Conrad stepped forward to accept our trophy.
296
I threw my arms around Addison and he picked me up, swinging me in a circle.
297
We did it!
298
We did it!
299
As we packed up our things in the dressing room and said goodbye to the new friends we'd made at the competition, one of the judges knocked on our dressing room door.
300
He was an exec for a record label back in L.A.
301
I was so impressed with you.
302
Your vocals were so clear, and you've got some real presents up there.
303
Give me a call if you think you'd be interested in recording a single.
304
He handed me his card, and I shook his hand, totally awestruck.
305
Maybe dreams really do come true.
306
I felt so relieved.
307
Not only had I not let everyone down, but I'd made myself proud.
308
On the bus, Addison dropped down in the seat beside me, running a hand through his hair.
309
When he saw me watching him, he grinned and the butterflies were back.
310
I'm totally beat, aren't you?
311
Definitely.
312
I, uh, got you something.
313
Oh yeah?
314
I pulled out a bag of gummy worms.
315
Your favorite.
316
You're the best, Kay.
317
He ripped open the bag and dug in.
318
Hey, Addison, what was it you were gonna tell me earlier?
319
Um, I, uh, I don't know.
320
I don't remember.
321
Well, I have something I want to tell you.
322
I- Yeah?
323
I like you.
324
Really?
325
Really?
326
I like you too.
327
I have for a while now.
328
Really?
329
Really.
330
He took my hand and I know my cheeks turned pink.
331
I got something for you too.
332
Ooh, okay.
333
I love presents.
334
And then he put his hand on my cheek, leaned in close, and kissed me.
335
It was the perfect end to a perfect day.
336
Thank you.

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。
