3.2 Hi, David.
2
Have a seat.
3
Thanks.
4
I'd like to get an update on the project and check all the deadlines so far.
5
Sure.
6
Well, I've agreed the approximate equipment costings with finance.
7
That's good.
8
And did you place the order for the equipment yesterday?
9
No, I didn't.
10
As I said, the figures are only approximate.
11
that's because some departments haven't sent their requirements yet.
12
We can't order until we have their final requirements. Which departments?
13
Marketing and IT.
14
But they've had three weeks to decide.
15
I know.
16
I've just emailed them another reminder.
17
OK.
18
And what about the plans?
19
Has anyone given their feedback?
20
Yes, I've already received it.
21
What, from everyone?
22
Yes.
23
Everyone replied before the deadline, and overall they were very positive.
24
Thank you.

通过这段视频你能学到什么

这段商务对话是提升职场英语表达的绝佳素材,能帮你掌握两大核心口语技能:一是清晰汇报项目进展,比如如何说明延迟原因(“有些部门还没提交需求”)和已采取行动(“发了提醒邮件”);二是高效获取信息,像对话中用“Did you...?”“What about...?”等句式追问细节。这些技巧不仅适用于工作场景,对雅思口语练习中的“描述过程”类话题也很有帮助。

注意这些连读和弱读现象

native speaker 的口语之所以流畅,关键在于连读和弱读。视频中能听到:“Have a seat”连读为/hævə siːt/;“I'd like to”弱读成/aɪd laɪk tə/;“approximate equipment”中“t”和“e”连读为/tə/。这些发音技巧能让你的口语更自然,也是看YouTube学英语时需要重点模仿的部分。

像母语者一样说英语:节奏与重音

想要练好口语,英语影子跟读(shadow speak)是个好方法。模仿这段对话时,要注意节奏和重音:比如“the figures are only approximate”中,“only”和“approximate”需要重读,突出信息重点;“Everyone replied before the deadline”则要放慢语速,强调“before the deadline”的完成感。通过反复跟读,你能逐渐掌握商务英语的正式感与流畅度,让口语表达更具说服力。

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。
