The show is called Young Larry.
40
It's about my life when I was like 24, 25.
41
I lived in Brooklyn with my parents and my uncle, Mo, lived upstairs with my grandmother.
42
Mo was in his 70s.
43
He pushed racks in the garment centers, would take the subway every day.
44
He never spent a nickel in his life, so he had over a million dollars saved up.
45
So one day, Uncle Mo comes up to me and he says, I'm moving into the city and I want you to live with me,
46
and if you live with me, I'll leave all my money to you." Wow.
47
Wow.
48
So in the show, I move in with Uncle Mo,
49
and, uh, I do everything that I can to accelerate his.. demise.
50
So how does he try to kill him?
51
Subtly.
52
You know, like, giving him terrible food to eat, Ruben sandwiches, you know, making him climb up six flights of stairs, telling him the elevator's broken,
53
you know, things like that.
54
So young Larry, what's going on in his life right now?
55
Like, what is he doing?
56
Okay, very good question.
57
Thank you.
58
He's a private chauffeur.
59
He drives for an old woman.
60
I was a private chauffeur.
61
I drove this old lady around.
62
She was blind.
63
I never cleaned the car.
64
She had no idea.
65
And so he has this huge Cadillac limousine at his disposal that he uses all the time.
66
And I was trying to be a stand -up comic.
67
So I was just starting out doing my act.
68
Oh, that's really interesting.
69
You know, we'll see him do stand -up.
70
Sure.
71
When he's not chauffeuring or whatever and trying to kill his uncle.
72
Wow.
73
I love this.
74
I think this is great.
75
Really?
76
I think we want to do this show.
77

78

79
Yes, in.
80

81
Really?
82
Absolutely.
83
Look at that.
84

Purell?
86
How about that?
87
I'm good for now.
88
I'm good for now, but thanks.
89
I'm not a Purell hoarder.
90
Remember the pandemic, the hoarders?
91
Oh, yeah.
92
Nasty people.
93
Terrible.
94
They're like horse thieves in the Old West, aren't they?
95
Okay.
96
You'll find that I'm a pleasure to work with?
97
Eh, don't give me any notes.
98

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。
