1
Do you like celebrating your birthday?
2
When I was a kid,
3
birthdays were a really big deal.
4
My parents would always make me and my siblings feel really special on our birthdays.
5
My mom would make our favorite meal
6
and she would also make a huge cake and our whole family would come over to celebrate together.
7
I come from a relatively big family,
8
so sometimes birthdays felt like the only day you could get all the attention you were craving
9
and it was always something to look forward to.
10
But now with each year that I get older,
11
I feel like my birthday is more of a day for self-reflection and looking back at the past year in my life.
12
What did I accomplish?
13
Did I do everything I wanted to do?
14
If 10-year-old me could look at myself now,
15
would she be proud of me or even think that I was cool?
16
This past year, I really pushed myself to do things I never thought I would have been able to do.
17
and I think a big reason for why I was able to do them was
18
because I started to become more independent and I also gained more self-confidence.
19
From sharing my stories online,
20
I found that there were a lot of people who had experiences very similar to mine,
21
and even though I might not have that many people around me in real life,
22
it just felt really good to know that people could relate to me or that people even liked watching my videos.
23
When I started to express how introverted and shy I am online,
24
a lot of people started commenting and saying
25
that people who are really shy or really introverted wouldn't even dare to post these kinds of videos online.
26
And that was the case for me in the beginning.
27
When I first started making these videos,
28
I would just open my camera on my phone
29
and just stare at myself without even being able to say a single word
30
because I literally felt so embarrassed and so self-conscious.
31
I even used to be way too nervous to even hold my phone up in public
32
and record myself or even the things around me but the more
33
that i pushed myself to do this i started to feel less
34
and less awkward and actually i found that this is a perfect way for me to express myself.
35
Because in real life, not everyone has the patience to fully listen to all of my ideas
36
or to listen to how I'm feeling.
37
And sometimes I don't even know how to communicate to other people how I'm feeling.
38
But once I found my own way of expressing myself,
39
I started to understand myself more and I started gaining confidence in everything that I do do.
40
So when I reflect on this past year in my life,
41
I feel like I've been able to gain a lot more confidence and independence,
42
and I've also been better at adapting to all the changes around me.
43
A year ago, I had just moved to a new city,
44
and it was a really hard time for me because I didn't know anybody there,
45
and I was feeling really lonely all the time.
46
And also within the first week of moving,
47
there were so many instances of people being not very friendly towards me,
48
like the time that I was struggling to get my car out of a parking spot
49
and there was just a group of girls outside of my car pointing at me
50
and laughing at me instead of actually trying to help me.
51
And if that had happened to my old self,
52
I would have been really depressed and really upset for a long time.
53
But over time, as I've grown up,
54
I've slowly come to realize that I can't control what other people do or say,
55
but I can control how I react and how I let things affect me.
56
And the most important thing is that I'm doing things
57
that I feel proud of and living a life that makes me happy.
58
And I do feel proud of myself for how far I've come in my journey of self-improvement.
59
And now here I am a year later,
60
I've just moved to another city again,
61
and I have so many things that I want to accomplish and share with all of you.
62
I want to encourage people to follow their dreams and find their passions in life,
63
even when other people tell you that you can't.
64
I think instead of believing other people when they tell us this,
65
we can use it as inspiration to make ourselves better and prove them wrong.
66
And you never know what you can accomplish if you never try.

背景與環境
生日通常被視為特別的日子,是個人慶祝生命的一次機會。在這段錄音中,講者分享了自己對於生日的看法,以及如何隨著年齡的增長,生日變成了自我反思的時刻。她回顧了過去一年的成就與挑戰,反映了自我獨立與自信的提升。這段經歷不僅讓她感受到生日的意義,也幫助她在社交場合中更自如地表達自己。

- 獨立與自信:“過去一年,我變得更加獨立,並且獲得了更多自信。”
- 面對挑戰:“我經歷了一些困難,但我學會了適應變化。”
- 分享交流:“通過分享我的故事,我發現有很多人都有相似的經歷。”
逐步跟讀指導
為了提高英語發音和口語能力,我們建議您採取以下步驟,使用錄音內容進行shadow speak練習,增強您的英語口語技巧。
- 首先,觀看影片,注意講者的語調與表達,尤其是在討論個人經歷時的情感。
- 接著,暫停影片,與講者的說話同步,用“shadowspeak”技術進行跟讀練習。模仿他們的發音和節奏,這將幫助提高英語發音。
- 在每個短語後面停頓,嘗試複述,確保準確表達每個句子的含義和情感。
- 逐漸增加跟讀的速度,以增強自己的口語流利度。
- 最後,可以錄下自己的聲音,與講者的聲音進行對比,找出需要進一步改進的地方。
通過這種系統的練習方法,您將能在“看YouTube學英語”的過程中,提升自己的英語口語能力,增強自信心,讓表達變得更加自如。記得定期反思您的進步,這樣可以持續激勵自己前進。
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 · I've also been · I've grown |
| 定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物 | people who had · people who are |
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。
