I'm Jake.
7
How are you today, Judy?
8
I am very happy today.
9
Do you know why?
10
Why?
11
Because I tried a new restaurant last night.
12
The food was so good.
13
I had pasta with tomato sauce,
14
and the bread was warm and fresh.
15
Oh, that sounds amazing.
16
I love pasta.
17
And you, Jake?
18
How are you?

I am hungry.
20
Very, very hungry.
21
Hungry?
22
Did you eat breakfast?
23
Yes, I had toast and an egg,
24
but that was three hours ago.
25
And now you are talking about pasta and warm bread.
26
My stomach is not happy.
27
Sorry, Jake.
28
I did not mean to make you hungry.
29
Too late.
30
I can almost smell the pasta right now.
31
Well, actually, your hunger is perfect for today.
32
Perfect?
33
Why?
34
Because today, you and I are going to a restaurant.
35
Really?
36
Right now?
37
Well, not a real restaurant.
38
We are going to practice restaurant English together, right here.
39
Oh, that sounds fun.
40
So we will role play.
41
Yes, but today is different from our normal episodes.
42
Today, we are not just talking.
43
We are practicing together.
44
You and me and everyone at home.
45
Everyone at home, too?
46
Yes.
47
Today is a shadowing practice episode.
48
Shadowing.
49
I know this.
50
I listen and I repeat.
51
Exactly.
52
I will say a sentence, you repeat it.
53
And everyone at home, you repeat it too.
54
Say it out loud.
55
Use your voice.
56
So we all practice together?
57
Yes.
58
We will have a conversation at a restaurant.
59
And after every few sentences,
60
we stop, we pick the most useful sentences,
61
and we practice them together.
62
So it's like a real conversation plus a workout.
63
Yes, a speaking workout.
64
By the end of today,
65
you will have eight real sentences.
66
Eight sentences you can use in any restaurant in any English-speaking country.
67
Eight sentences.
68
That sounds great.
69
I like this idea.
70
Let's do it.
71
We will go step by step.
72
First, arriving at the restaurant,
73
then ordering food, and finally,
74
paying the bill and leaving.
75
Ready?
76
Ready.
77
Let's go eat.

91
Imagine we are walking into a restaurant.
92
The door opens.
93
A waiter says hello.
94
What do we say?
95
Um, hello.
96
Table for two?
97
Almost.
98
Let's make it a little more polite.
99
We say, hi, a table for two, please.
100

101
That sounds nice.
102

112
Hi, a table for two, please.
113

114
Perfect.
115
Everyone at home, say it out loud with Jake.
116
One more time.
117
Hi, a table for two, please.
118
Hi, a table for two, please.
119
Wonderful.
120
See how easy that was?
121
Three small pieces.
122
And now you have one complete sentence.
123
You can walk into any restaurant and say this.
124
It feels very natural now.
125
Not scary at all.
126
Good.
127
Now the waiter shows us some tables,
128
but Jake, you want to sit in a special place.
129
Yes, I want to sit near the window.
130
I love looking outside when I eat.
131
Good.
132
So you say, can we sit near the window?
133
Oh, that is a nice sentence.
134
Can you say it again?
135
Of course.
136
Listen carefully.
137
Can we sit near the window?
138
Can we sit near the window?
139
Yes.
140
Very good.
141
Everyone at home, repeat.
142
Can we sit near the window?
143
I like this.
144
We walk in, we ask for a table, we choose our seat.
145
Easy.
146
And you already have two sentences.
147
Two real sentences you can use in any restaurant in any country.
148
Hi, a table for two, please.
149
And can we sit near the window?
150
Yes, and you can change the words, too.
151
If you have three people,
152
a table for three, please.
153
If you want to sit outside, can we sit outside?
154
Oh, same sentence, different words.
155
I see.
156
Very flexible.
157
Exactly.
158
Okay, the waiter takes us to a nice table by the window.
159
We sit down.
160
Let's look at the menu.
161
Okay, we are sitting at our table now.
162
The waiter gives us a menu.
163
Jake, what do you do first?
164
I look at the menu.
165
There are many things.
166
Chicken, fish, pasta, salad, soup.
167
Good.
168
But you are not sure what to order,
169
so you ask the waiter for help.
170
You say, what do you recommend?
171
Recommend?
172
What is recommend?
173
Recommend means what do you think is good?
174
What is the best choice?
175
When you ask what do you recommend,
176
you are asking for their suggestion.
177
Ah, like what is your favorite thing on the menu?
178
Exactly.
179
Let's practice this.
180
I will say it slowly first, then at normal speed.
181
You follow me both times, okay?
182
Okay.
183
Slowly.
184
What do you recommend?
185
What do you recommend?
186

192
Slowly first.
193
What do you recommend?
194
And now, normal speed.
195
What do you recommend?
196
That feels good.
197
Okay, so the waiter recommends the chicken.
198
Yes.
199
The waiter says, The chicken with rice is very popular.
200
Sounds delicious.
201
I will order that.
202
Good.
203
When you order food, you say,
204

206

207
It is very polite, right?
208

209

210
More polite than I want.
211
In a restaurant, always use I would like.
212
Got it.
213
I would like, not I want.
214
More polite, more friendly.
215
Yes, and waiters hear this every day.
216

238

关于本课程
在本课程中，学习者将通过模仿对话练习在餐厅的英语交流。我们将进行角色扮演，模拟真实的餐厅场景。这不仅可以帮助你提高英语口语能力，还能加深对常用短语的理解。在这个环节中，你可以与我们一同练习，感受“英语影子跟读”的魅力，从而增强你的发音技巧和交流自信。
关键词汇与短语
- hungry - 饿
- pasta - 意大利面
- warm bread - 热面包
- breakfast - 早餐
- restaurant - 餐厅
- try a new restaurant - 尝试一家新餐厅
- food was so good - 食物太好吃了
- role play - 角色扮演
练习技巧
在进行“英语影子跟读”时，保持专注是非常重要的。你可以尝试以下技巧来提高你的英语口语练习效果：
- 重复听每一句话。当你听到我们说的句子时，及时模仿、跟读，确保你的发音与语调尽量一致。
- 选择适合你当前水平的句子。如果感觉某些句子难以跟上，可以尝试分段练习，逐句跟读。
- 使用“shadowspeak”技术，先听句子，再试着复述。这样可以加深记忆，同时改善语音语调。
- 录音并回放自己的发音，与原声进行比较，找出需要改进的地方，这对于“提高英语发音”尤其有效。
- 在家中安全的环境中进行练习，鼓励自己多说，哪怕是独自一人，逐渐培养自信。
通过这些实践技巧，你将逐步提高你的英语口语能力，并有效地为将来的真实交流做好准备。欢迎在我们的学习网站上持续练习，建立起良好的英语基础！
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。
