1
So, there
2
are three questions that I love to ask my students.
3
I love to ask these questions because the answers give me a very interesting view of my students' culture.
4
I'm going to share these three questions and then I want to know,
5
how would you answer these questions?
6
Before we get started, if you're new here, hello, hello.
7
I'm Jean.
8
I'm an English teacher and content creator.

12
thank you and welcome back.
13
Please consider sharing this video.
14
It's the best way to support me for free.
15
Okay, question number one.
16
How are baby names chosen in your culture?
17
I love asking this question.
18
I always learn something interesting.
19
I mean, I learned something interesting from all of these questions, of course.
20
Baby names in the United States are typically chosen in one of two ways.
21
The first way is that the parents really like a particular name.
22
The name sounds good.
23
They like it.
24
It's not necessarily special.
25
It doesn't necessarily have a special meaning.
26
They just like it.
27
And usually the mother has a lot of power when it comes to naming their babies.
28
So if the mom doesn't like a name,
29
then likely the baby will not have that name.
30
The other way is that the name comes from a person or place.
31
It's common to give a baby a grandparent's name or the name of someone special.
32
It could also be a place.
33
It could also be the name of a character from a movie or book.
34
Grandparent names are also commonly given to babies as the middle name.
35
A lot of people in the United States have a first name,
36
a last name, and a middle name.
37
The middle name is usually only used on official documents or if you're in trouble.
38
Not everyone has a middle name though.
39
And there are other ways people choose baby names in the United States.
40
Those are just the two most popular ways.
41
Question number two.
42
How do you tell someone how far away something is?
43
Let me explain.
44
When someone asks, how far away is it?
45
Do you give a distance in terms of miles or kilometers?
46
Or do you give how much time it takes to get there?
47
The thing is, in the United States,
48
we usually tell people how much time it takes to get somewhere instead of giving a physical distance.
49
I'll give you an example.
50
Hey, let's go to that new bookstore I was telling you about.
51
Sure.
52
Where is it again?
53
I don't remember.
54
next to the Walmart.
55
It's only like 10 minutes from here.
56
Perfect.
57
Let's do it.
58
It's so common to do this,
59
in fact, that most people don't know how to think about physical distance.
60
For example, if you say to me, it's two miles away.
61
I have no idea what that means.
62
We talk about distance in terms of time,
63
specifically how much time it takes to drive there.
64
So when people want to know about the distance between here and South Florida,
65
I don't say it's almost exactly 1000 miles.
66
Instead, I say it's about an 18 hour drive.
67
Question number three.
68
What are typical meal times?
69
You might be shocked how fun this conversation topic can be.
70
I really enjoy talking about this with my Italian students
71
because the typical mealtimes in Italy are completely different from the typical mealtimes in the United States.
72
And when I talk to my Italian students about this,
73
both of us are shocked about the other.
74
In America, typical dinner time is between 5 p.m and 7 p.m.
75
Some cultures in the United States eat later.
76
When I lived in South Florida,
77
for example, it was more common for people to eat later around 8pm or 9pm because that's common for Latinos.
78
And there are a lot of Latinos in South Florida.
79
But I think in general,
80
typical dinner time is between 5pm and 7pm.
81
Not in Italy.
82
And some countries and cultures have common snack times.
83
In the United States, it might be common to have a snack in the afternoons,
84
especially for children after school.
85
But for other countries, it is a very serious thing to stop and have a small meal.
86
Some countries don't care so much about breakfast.
87
Breakfast can be super small,
88
just coffee and some kind of bread.
89
In America, breakfast is usually pretty important.
90
I heard that in Germany,
91
lunches are hot, but dinners are cold.
92
It's the opposite typically in America.
93
Usually lunches are cold and dinners are hot.
94
So it's not just the time you eat that's interesting.
95
There are so many interesting things we can talk about related to food.
96
So those are three questions I love to ask my students.
97
How are baby names chosen in your culture?
98
How do you tell someone how far away something is?
99
And what are typical mealtimes?
100
Can you choose one of these questions and leave your answer in the comments?
101
I would love to hear your answer.
102
That's it for today.
103
As always, thank you for being here, my friends.
104
Until next time, bye.

逐步跟读指南
对于想要提高英语发音和口语流利度的学习者，可以尝试“雅思口语练习”的方式，通过影子跟读（shadow speech）的方法提升自己的能力。以下是逐步的练习指南：
- 首先，观看视频并仔细听讲师的发声与语调。注意她在提问时的语气变化和重音位置。
- 选择一段对话，反复播放，并尝试模仿讲师的发音和语调。可以借助“英语影子跟读”练习来深入分析每一个音节。
- 在跟读的过程中，找到自己发音的薄弱点，记录下来以便后续集中练习。
- 在回答问题时，尽量运用视频中提到的短语和句型，从而更有效地提高语言的实际运用能力。
- 定期回顾并调整你的发音，借助相关的shadowing site来获得更好的反馈。
在运用这些技巧时，切记保持耐心，持续练习，你将会看到显著的进步。希望这些建议能帮助你在英语学习的旅程中取得更好的成果！
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
