Hi guys! My name’s Sophia and this video is for the British Council’s LearnEnglish Teens website and their YouTube channel. In today’s video I wanted to share my thoughts of why it’s important to travel.
2
Travelling is a passion of mine.
3
I love meeting new people and exploring new cultures.
4
Travelling is a great way to interact with a culture which might be completely different to your own, and there are so many great ways to do this.
5
You can do this through eating food ... erm, exploring the arts, music, history, architecture or simply just walking through the streets.
6
When you travel you expose yourself to the possibility of meeting different people who have a completely different outlook on life – and it’s a great learning experience for both you and the other person because you can share and exchange your own ideas and opinions on a range of topics.
7
For example, on one of my travels I met an Iranian philosopher and we talked about the nature of magic.
8
A lot of his ideas were shaped by his Iranian background and Iranian philosophy and also Sufism, which is a mystical form of Islam.
9
It was a really interesting discussion.
10
The world we live in today is very global and international so I think it’s very important to learn to see things from other people’s perspective and also to challenge your own ideas.
11
Travelling might just convince you to move to another country.
12
Before I moved to Sicily I had travelled around the whole of Italy, the south and the north, and I absolutely fell in love with the culture and the language so I was inspired to learn the language and also to move here.
13
And here I am now, living in Sicily.
14
Travelling will make you a really good storyteller.
15
When you get back home you’ll have lots and lots of stories to tell your friends and family.
16
Even if things don’t go to plan, erm, on your travels, it will be funny to look back and laugh at those awkward or harsh moments.
17
For example, I was travelling with a group of friends in Pisa and we took the wrong bus to get to the beach area, so we ended up being soaked in the rain and having to walk back.
18
At the time it wasn’t very fun, but now when I look back I laugh because we had soggy pizza and we were just eating and walking at the same time.
19
Travelling is the realisation of home, and what that means is that when we travel we learn to appreciate our home more – and that’s because, being away from home, we realise how much we miss our friends and our family and how much we miss the small things that perhaps we take for granted.
20
It’s all lovely travelling and it’s great to explore new and exciting places, but it’s also a lovely feeling to know that when you return home you’re going to be returning to your dear ones and the things that you love about your home.
21
Since I’ve been away from London, I’ve come to appreciate the little things that I used to take for granted, like our amazing transport – everything runs on time, everything runs well – so sometimes it takes being away from home to realise how much you absolutely love it.
22
I hope you’ve enjoyed this video.
23
Please comment below and let me know if you like travelling – and if you do, where you’ve been and where you would like to go in the future.
24
I’ll see you guys in my next one.
25
Take care, bye-bye!

練習提示
在觀看本影片的時候,請注意語速和語調。由於影片中Sophie的說話風格自然流暢,建議您進行shadow speak練習。儘量跟隨她的語音模仿,這樣不僅可以提高您的英語發音,還有助於理解句子的結構和語境。
對於旅行相關的討論,您可以嘗試複述她分享的經歷,並結合自己的旅行故事進行練習。在您的練習中,注重清晰的發音,尤其是一些重要的關鍵詞彙,例如“文化”和“故事”。通過這種方式,您將能夠逐步提高雅思口語練習的能力,並在實際交流中更加自信。
最後,記得定期反思自己在旅行中學到的東西,加深對這些詞彙的理解,並在不同的社交場合中靈活使用它們。
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 | I've been · you've enjoyed · you've been |
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | were shaped · was inspired · being soaked |
| 定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物 | people who have · Sufism, which is |
| 過去進行時 was/were + -ing — 過去某一時刻正在進行的動作 | was travelling · were just eating |
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。
