1
Representative, my name is Regina Vellamasta and I'm a graduate student at the Harris School of Public Policy.
2
As a Latina and a former waitress and bartender,
3
it's such an inspiration and an honor to hear you speak.
4
My question is about immigration.
5
A record 45 billion has gone into immigration enforcement.
6
How will the average American family benefit from this investment and how do Democrats shape immigration reform moving forward?
7
I think we're hard pressed to see how the average American's going to benefit from rounding up innocent people,
8
building a mass surveillance state,
9
giving impunity to folks that are shooting Americans dead in the street.
10
We need to abolish ICE.
11
And I can't tell you how the average American's gonna benefit from it,
12
but I can tell you how we are gonna pay the price.
13
We're gonna pay the price
14
because a trillion dollars was gutted out of our healthcare care system to pay for an extrajudicial force
15
that is building a mass surveillance database of everyday Americans,
16
scanning your face, observing your online activity,
17
looking at your purchases without so much as a judicial warrant when they decide to bust into people's houses.
18
But on a deeper level,
19
what this is going to cost us also in our economic outlook and our humanity.
20
First in our economic outlook,
21
one of the only reasons that the United States
22
outperformed the rest of the developed world in terms of how we weathered the COVID pandemic,
23
because while it was hard for us,
24
the rest of the world had it way worse.
25
And one of the only reasons that we fared the way that we did was because of immigrants.
26
When you think about how immigrants show up in your life,
27
whether they are your friends,
28
your co-workers, etc. Our health care system stands to collapse without immigrants.
29
Our food system stands to collapse.
30
Our housing system stands to collapse.
31
That's the economic point.
32
Then there is the human point.
33
What is it costing us?
34
as human beings and as a society,
35
to look the other way when women and children and innocent people and young men of promise
36
are ripped off the street and thrown into a van and disappeared and you never see them again.
37
There's what that costs them,
38
but think about what it costs you to look the other way.
39
What does it cost us as a society that starts to normalize looking the other way?
40
Then we start looking the other way as women bleed out in parking lots in states that have banned abortion.
41
We start looking the other way as VRA districts start to get stripped out of our Congress.
42
We start looking the other way as the free press becomes consumed
43
and intimidated by the very powers that they exist to check.
44
What does it cost us and you as a human being to look the other way?
45
And so there's the economic cost.
46
your health care is going up long term care for our parents
47
and grandparents are going to skyrocket it is costing us it's already costing us
48
and then there's what does it cost our soul and that you know in a political context people think that that's
49
naive flowery talk I don't think it is
50
because what is all of this for
51
if it is not to live a dignified life in a community and country of integrity.

語法與表達結構分析
在影片中，亞歷山大·奧卡西奧-科爾特斯使用了多種有效的英語表達方式，以下是一些關鍵的句子結構：
- 條件句: 她使用了“如果……那就……”，這類句結構可在討論假設情況下的邏輯推理時幫助提升口語表達的層次。

常見發音陷阱
在這個影片中，有幾個單詞的發音可能會造成困惑。首先，"immigrants"（移民）可能因其多音節而難以準確發音。其次，“surveillance”這個詞包含複雜的音節組合，也需要重點練習。此外，發音時的重音和語調也非常重要，要關注她在強調整個句子時所使用的語氣。通過這種方式，您可以在練習時更好地掌握髮音的細微差別。

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。
