1
As the summer comes to an end, I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment.
2
The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown.
3
The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you.
4
With humility, it also brings you face to face with your own vulnerabilities in a way you have never considered before, and with that, a new perspective on everything.
5
This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved.
6
Doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.
7
I am however looking forward to being back at work and undertaking a few more public engagements in the coming months when I can.
8
Despite all that has gone before I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life.
9
William and I are so grateful for the support we have received and have drawn great strength from all those who are helping us at this time. Everyone’s kindness, empathy and compassion has been truly humbling.
10
To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey – I remain with you, side by side, hand in hand. Out of darkness, can come light so let that light shine bright.

练习技巧
在进行“shadowspeak”练习时，建议你在观看视频时，主动跟读凯瑟琳公主的发言。由于她的语速较慢而且语调清晰，你可以轻松跟上。以下是一些具体的建议：
- 首先，观察她在关键短语中的停顿与重音，尝试模仿这些语调以提高你的语音准确性。
- 可以关闭字幕，专注于听和模仿她的发音，特别是在情感富有的句子中，这将帮助你更好地理解情感表达。
- 重复某一句话多次，直到你能毫不费力地说出相同的语调和情感。这样的“shadow speak”练习可以有效提升你的英语流利度。
- 每次练习后，记录下你的发音，反复听取，与你的原声进行对比，找出需要改进的地方，从而不断提高你的发音水平。
通过观看YouTube视频练习，比如这段来自凯瑟琳公主的信息，你将能在真实的交流情景中学习，同时提高你的英语口语能力。这不仅是语言学习的乐趣，也是自我表达的重要途径。
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。
