Hey, what's up?

It's Alex.

Today we're going to look at a sample IELTS part 2 answer to the question, Describe a TV show that you watched but didn't enjoy.
4
Let's take a look.
5
Honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV.
6
Honestly.
7
We don't say honestly, that T disappears.
8
Honestly, honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV. So don't watch.
9
Don't watch.
10
That T becomes a glottal stop.
11
I don't watch a lot of TV.
12
A lot of.
13
So here I mentioned in a previous video that you can say a lot of TV or a lot of TV, depending on your mood and how formal you're being.
14
Here, I'm not speaking very formally.
15
This is a more relaxed answer, and it might be better to speak a little more formally in an IELTS exam.
16
Here I'm saying a lot of TV, just to give you an example of relaxed, casual speech.
17
A lot of TV.
18
Honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV, and I actually can't remember the name of this particular show.
19
An-I-actually.
20
An-I-actually.
21
So we're not saying and I.
22
We're linking and I to an I, and we're putting a y here.
23
I actually, I actually.
24
And I actually can't remember.
25
Can't remember.
26
That T becomes a glottal stop.
27
Can't remember.
28
The.
29
This the is spoken in a very low tone and it's reduced.
30
Can't remember the name.
31
Can't remember the name of this particular show.
32
Of this particular show.
33
Here I could say, the name of this, but that's a little bit too informal even for me.
34
The name of this particular show.
35
Particular.
36
Particular.
37
It's not particular, it's per.
38
Particular.
39
The name of this particular show.
40
But I do remember, but I.
41
These words are connected together, but I, with a tapped T, but I.
42
But I do remember that a few years ago, that a, same thing, the T is tapped, it's not a glottal stop.
43
I'm not saying but I, or that a, I'm saying but I, that a.
44
I do remember that a few years ago, I was watching TV with my friend, and we came across.
45
So the D in friend doesn't disappear.
46
It's not a glottal stop, but it's spoken really lightly.
47
Friend-en.
48
Friend-en.
49
But the d in and does disappear.
50
Friend and we came. And we. And we.
51
With my friend and we came across a new show.
52
Came across a.
53
Came across a.
54
This a connects to a cross.
55
Came across a new show that both of us just hated.
56
That both of us just hated.
57
That, here the word that is reduced.
58
That both of us, of us, is connected together.
59
Both of us just hated.
60
Just hated.
61
Since hated is stressed in the sentence, I don't reduce anything around it.
62
Just hated.
63
Full full pronunciation of just, just hated.
64
It was a cartoon about a family in the 1970s.
65
It was, this it is a glottal stop.
66
It was, it was a cartoon about a family, about a.
67
This t in about connects to the a, and it's a tap. About a. About a.
68

In the is reduced.
70
In the 1970s. In the.

75
I don't say might have been a.
76
I'm speaking more informally.
77
Might have been a factory worker.
78

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。
