Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Today we're going to look at the sentence rhythm and intonation in my sample answer for the IELTS question, Describe a Journey You Remember Well.
4
Let's take a look.
5
When I was 15, when I was 15, 15, I went with my family,
6
I went with my family.
7
kind of go down on family, but keep went with my at a higher tone.
8
I went with my family on a long trip.
9
Long trip.
10
So we don't go all the way down on trip.
11
It's not long trip.
12
Long trip.
13
Just a little bit down.
14
Long trip around a.. long trip around a bunch of national parks in the western United States.
15
A bunch of National Parks in the Western United States.
16
Western U.
17
Western United States.
18
We have to go low on U in United so that we can make a rhythm for the sentence.
19
Western United States.
20
I can't really remember.
21
I can't really remember.
22
Can't really.
23
We keep that at an even tone.
24
I can't really remember how much time we spent at each one.
25
We spent.. we spent at each one.
26
How much time we spent at each one?
27
We.
28
We goes lower, again to break up the rhythm of the high tone sentence.
29
How much time we spent at each one?
30
But the whole trip took about three weeks in total.
31
But the whole trip took about three weeks in total.
32
So three weeks.
33
We go down a little bit on three weeks, but we don't go all the way down.
34
It's not three weeks in total.
35
Three weeks in total.
36
Three weeks in total.
37
At that time, at that time, at that time, I was just beginning.
38
I was.
39
So I was goes lower here, even though we rose on time.
40
At that time I was just beginning.
41
So just is quite high.
42
I was just beginning to take pictures as a hobby.
43
Take pictures, take pictures as a hobby.
44
Take pictures as a hobby.
45
So I love seeing all the different landscapes.
46
So I, so I goes very low at the beginning of this sentence.
47
So I love seeing all the different landscapes.
48
Landscapes.
49
We go much lower to finish that sentence.
50
Landscapes.
51
All the different landscapes.
52
That was also, that was also when I first got to practice,
53
first got to practice, got to, got to practice, got to practice,
54
first got to practice driving a car.
55
That was also when I first got to practice driving a car.
56
My parents let me try driving, My parents let me try driving for a few minutes.
57
My parents let me try driving for a few minutes.
58
My.
59
Let me.
60
Furrah.
61
All of those are low to break up the rhythm of the sentence.
62
My parents let me try driving.
63
Driving for a few minutes.
64
For a few minutes.
65
Out on a really lonely road in a desert.
66
Out on a really lonely road in a desert.
67
Really lonely road in a desert.
68
In a desert.
69
So we have three kind of high tones, but we don't go all the way low yet.
70
Until in a.
71
Really lonely road in a desert.
72
Really lonely road in a desert.
73
Where it was safe.
74
Where it was.
75
Now those three words are connected together, and they're spoken in a low tone, where it was safe.
76
Where it was safe.
77
It's been a long time.
78
It's been a long time since I've been to parks like that, and I'd definitely like to see them again.
79
It's...
80
We start that sentence with a low tone.
81
It's been a long time.
82
It's been a long time since I've been to parks like that.
83
Been to parks.
84
T is unstressed, and so it goes with a low tone.
85
Since I've been to parks like that, and I'd definitely like to see them again.
86
That takes a falling then rising tone.
87
Parks like that, that, parks like that, and I definitely like to see them again.
88
And I, and it takes a low tone, and I definitely like to see them again.
89
So I'm stressing definitely in my answer, definitely like to see them again.
90
Like to, like to.
91
It's not like to, definitely like to.
92
It's not like that, it's definitely like to.
93
Definitely like to see them again.
94
So we kind of go up and down very quickly in this sentence. When I was 15,
95
I went with my family on a long trip around a bunch of national parks in the western United States.
96
I can't really remember how much time we spent at each one, but the whole trip took about three weeks in total.
97
At that time, I was just beginning to take pictures as a hobby, so I loved seeing all the different landscapes.
98
That was also when I first got to practice driving a car.
99
My parents let me try driving for a few minutes out
100
on a really lonely road in a desert where it was safe.
101
It's been a long time since I've been to parks like that, and I'd definitely like to see them again.

练习技巧
在进行英语影子跟读时，模仿视频中的发音及语调是提升口语能力的关键。建议你选择视频中的一小段进行反复练习，注意句子中的轻重变化和音调起伏。例如，在短语“long trip”中，重音应稍微降低，而在“Western United States”中，要让“U”音调降低以创造句子的节奏。在你模仿时，可以尝试跟随视频的节奏，逐步提高自己的语音流畅度。
此外，保持一致的速度是确保你能够自然表达的重要因素。开始时可以慢一些，确保掌握连读和语调，然后逐渐加快步伐。通过这些方式，结合对于不同场景的描述，你将更好地为雅思口语练习做好准备。请记得，良好的跟读练习不仅能提高发音，还能帮助你更自信地进行日常对话。
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。
