Today I'd like to talk about a sample answer to the IELTS question, Describe a person who you think dresses well.
4
Let's take a look.
5
There's a famous actor, Idris Elba, who I think is a great example.
6
Who, why, why?
7
We add a little wha sound between who and I. Who I.
8
Who I think is a is a is a is a great example.
9
Here is a kind of gets reduced and spoken as one little unit.
10
Is a is a.
11
Who I think is a great example.
12
Great a great example.
13
Here the T in great gets turned into a tap.
14
Great example.
15
Great example of a man who dresses well a great example of a man who dresses well.
16
Here, of a has the same thing happen as is a.
17
It gets reduced into one little word, of a, who I think is a great example of a man who dresses well.
18
He's an actor.
19
He's an actor.
20
Here, he's an, zan, the z sound in he's connects to an, And the vowel in AN reduces to just AN.
21
And also, the N in AND connects to the next syllable.
22
He's an actor.
23
He's an actor.
24
So of course.
25
So of course.
26
Now here we could say so of course, but in rapid speech, so of course is a little more complicated to say with a wuh in it.
27
So we omit the wuh and we just say, so of course, so of course,
28
so of course he dresses better.
29
Now here when we speak quickly, he turns into just ee.
30
So So of course he dresses.
31
So of course he dresses.
32
The H gets removed.
33
But this only happens if you're speaking very quickly.
34
If you speak a little bit more carefully, so of course he, of course he, see, of course he dresses better.
35
There's a real H sound before E.
36
So of course he dresses better than the average person, than the average.
37
So here, than turns into then, and the N in than connects to the th sound in the.
38
The average has a little y in the middle.
39
The average person.
40
And here, average.
41

42
It's not average.

48
But I think he tends to be, but I, there's a tap there for the T in but,
49
but I think he, we connect the think he together, and again, when we speak quickly,
50
the h sound in he gets removed.
51
But I think he tends to be.
52
Tens.
53
There's no d sound in tens.
54
Tens to be.
55
Tens to be a little bit be.
56
There's a little y between b and uh. Be.
57
I think he tends to be a little bit more bold.
58
Little bit more.
59
The T in bit turns into a glottal stop before more.
60
Little bit more.
61
Little bit more bold with his clothes.
62
Bold with his clothes. With his.
63
Here the TH kind of goes over the H and we don't hear a separate H sound. With his.
64
With his clothes.
65
The TH sound in clothes can just be removed.
66
Close, close, like close a door.
67
Close, than most actors.
68
Then, then, again, than turns into then.
69
Most actors.
70
That T in most doesn't get removed, but it gets connected to the next syllable.
71
Than most actors.
72
You know, you know, this is a chunk and so it's connected into one kind of word there.
73
You know, you know, like, you know, like sometimes he'll wear something more artistic at an awards show.
74
At an awards show. At an...
75
So here in at, there's a tapped T.
76
Edan, edan, and the vowel in at gets reduced to a very light at an awards show.
77
Now here the N in an connects to awards at an awards show.
78
Finally awards show turns into awards show.
79
The d sound comes before the sh sound.
80
We don't have a separate sound in the middle when we're speaking quickly.
81
It's not awards show, it's awards show, awards show, and it really catches the eye.
82
And it really, so here the D in and disappears, the T in it turns into a glottal stop,
83
and let's look at the vowel in really.
84
It could be, and it really catches, or it could be, and it really catches.
85
Really, really.
86
Both are okay.
87
I, E.
88
Both vowels are acceptable.
89
And it really catches the I.
90
The I.
91
There's a little I sound in between the and I.
92
The I.
93
The I.
94
There's a famous actor, Idris Elba, who I think is a great example of a man who dresses well.
95
He's an actor, so of course he dresses better than the average person, but I think he tends to be a little bit more bold with his clothes than most actors.

You know, like sometimes he'll wear something more artistic at an awards show, and it really catches the eye.

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。
