Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Today we're going to look at the sentence intonation and pitch changes in the lian du video, Describe a TV program that you didn't like.
4
Let's take a look.
5
Honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV.
6
Honestly, honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV.
7
A lot of TV.
8
A lot of TV.
9
And I actually can't remember the name of this particular show.
10
This particular show.
11
So here we can have this particular show kind of going up and down.
12
Or we could go very flat, of this particular show, this particular show.
13
Both ways are okay.
14
Honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV, and I actually can't remember the name of this particular show.
15
But I do remember, but I do remember, we stress do here to show that we are contrasting with the previous point.
16
And we go up on remember to show that we're going to continue the sentence.
17
But I do remember that, now because we went up on remember, we go way down on that.
18
That I do remember that, I do remember that a few years ago,
19
that a few years ago, I was watching TV.
20
A few years ago, I was watching TV.
21
Here, ago also rises to show that we're continuing the rest of the sentence.
22
A few years ago, I was watching TV.
23
I was watching TV.
24
I was low, watching, high, TV, falling.
25
I was watching TV with my friend.
26
Again, we rise to show that we're continuing the sentence.
27
and we came across a new show, and we came across a new show, a new show that both of us,
28
both of us, both of us just hated.
29
Now we're stressing both and hated, so we use falling tones here.
30
Both of us just hated.
31
It was a cartoon.
32
It was a cartoon about a family.
33
It was a cartoon about a family.
34
Car-toon.
35
Not cartoon.
36
It was a cartoon.
37
It was a cartoon about a family in the 1970s.
38
So here, tune, family, 70s.
39
Those syllables have the stress in this first half of the sentence, and they're kind of even.
40
It was a cartoon about a family in the 1970s.
41
It kind of evenly spaces the stress around the sentence.
42
And I think the dad might have been a factory worker.
43
Here I'm going up with the tone of my voice so that I can show that I'm not sure about it.
44
This is a little bit informal of a way of speaking, but it's still really commonly used.
45
And I think the dad might have been a factory worker,
46
might have been a factory worker, might have been a.. all of those are spoken quickly with a low
47
or medium low tone.
48
Might have been a factory worker, might have been a factory worker.
49
I don't remember much of the plot, much of the plot.
50
We rise here to show that we're continuing the rest of the sentence.
51
But I do remember, same thing, stress on do remember, and go up to continue the sentence.
52
But I do remember that none of the characters, that none of the characters,
53
that none of the characters were interesting at all.
54
Interesting at all.
55
We go low, then we rise and fall again.
56
Interesting at all.
57
None of the characters were interesting at all.
58
And none of the jokes, and none of the jokes really landed.
59
And none of the jokes really landed.
60
Really landed.
61
We rise and fall toward the end there.
62
Really landed.
63
We sat through a few episodes.
64
We sat through kind of a high and even tone.
65
We sat through a few episodes.
66
Episodes.
67
Rising to show that we're continuing our idea.
68
We sat through a few episodes to see if it would get better.
69
So, episodes, better, those show that I'm continuing the sentence and I'm definitely going to go down later.
70
And instead, it just got worse.
71
We sat through a few episodes to see if it would get better, and instead it just got worse.
72
So we fall on that low tone at the end.
73
Just got worse.
74
It just got worse.
75
Honestly, I don't watch a lot of TV, and I actually can't remember the name of this particular show.
76
But I do remember that a few years ago, I was watching TV with my friend, and we came across a new show that both of us just hated.
77
It was a cartoon about a family in the 1970s, and I think the dad might have been a factory worker.
78
I don't remember much of the plot, but I do remember that none of the characters were interesting at all, and none of the jokes really landed.
79
We sat through a few episodes to see if it would get better, and instead, it just got worse.

练习技巧

在进行英语影子跟读(shadowspeak)练习时,请注意以下几点,以确保您有效地提升您的口语水平:

  • 首先,播放视频并仔细聆听发音和语调的变化。查看不同句子在语调上的起伏,这对于掌握美式英语的连读十分重要。
  • 其次,慢慢模仿说话者的节奏和语气。特别关注“我不记得”和“我喜欢”这样的关键短语,以及如何在连续句子中自然过渡。
  • 再次,尝试大声朗读,同时录下自己的声音。之后,您可以与原始视频进行对比,发现需要改进的地方,这将在雅思口语练习中非常有帮助。

通过运用这些方法,您能够在实际交流中更加流利自如,使您的英语口说能力不断进步。

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。
