Music Which
2
part of United States are you from?
3
Illinois.
4
Oh, Illinois.
5
And how long have you been living in France?
6
Uh, four months.
7
How did you get so lucky to move to Paris?
8
I wanted to improve my French.
9
I work here now.
10
I have a job with a French marketing firm.
11
I work for a big marketing firm in Chicago that acquired a smaller marketing firm here.
12
I'm kind of like the American point of view.
13
Oh, so you're studying French now?
14
Yeah, I've been studying at my office.
15
Uh-huh.
16
Did you study French in U.S.?
17
I did, yeah.
18
Two years at high school and three years at university.
19
So you're pretty good at French now.
20
Uh, I wouldn't say that.
21
My spoken French isn't that great.
22
I'm better at reading and writing than I am at speaking.
23
Really?
24
Yeah.
25
So, how's the Paris office treating you?
26
They're a fun bunch.
27
I'm fitting right in.
28
Did you experience any culture shock when you arrived?
29
Uh, yeah, some.
30
In what way?
31
Manners are incredibly important for the French people.
32
This was one of the biggest culture shock examples in France for me.
33
There's always a merci or s'il vous plaît tacked on to any interaction at a store.
34
And people are addressed as madame or monsieur.
35
It's cute.
36
What do you like about living in France?
37
The food is so delicious.
38
I'm obsessed with French cheeses and croissants,
39
which are buttery, crispy and delicious for breakfast.
40
The fashion is so chic.
41
The lights, so magical.
42
What do you find difficult about living in France?
43
The language.
44
Even though I've studied French for five years,
45
I find it really hard to communicate.
46
I think in general French people expect the visitors to speak really good French.
47
And they look annoyed if you get something wrong.
48
What impressed you the most so far?
49
Everything is impressive in Paris.
50
The small cheese shops, meat shops,
51
baguette stores, wine shops, people sitting on sidewalk cafes.
52
Have you been to Louvre Museum?
53
I have.
54
It was excellent.
55
Fantastic.
56
Do you miss your home?
57
Of course.
58
I love France and feel grateful to have the opportunity to live here.
59
But at the end of the day,
60
there's no place like home.
61
Does it always rain so much here?
62
Yes, it usually does.
63
Where I'm from, it rarely storms.
64
Oh, it doesn't often storm here, but it rains frequently.
65
That's good.
66
I don't like storms because they usually scare me.
67
It's the lightning and thunder that bother me.
68
And the strong winds.
69
That's what does the damage in a storm.
70
I get extremely nervous.
71
I'm never scared of storms.
72
Well, what are you afraid of?
73
I am scared of spiders.
74
And how long have you had this phobia?
75
I've had it since I was about seven.
76
Did something happen to start the phobia?
77
I remember a very big spider in the apartment that we lived in at the time,
78
coming out from under the television and going across the room,
79
and me being absolutely terrified.
80
And that's the first time I remember being scared.
81
How does it affect your life?
82
In the past, it was really awful.
83
I mean, I couldn't sit in the same room as a spider,
84
and I always had to keep all the doors and windows shut,
85
because I was frightened that spiders might come in.
86
But now I can sit in the same room as a spider
87
and I can put it in a glass and take it outside myself if I have to.
88
If there's nobody else there.
89
So it doesn't affect me as badly as it did before,
90
but I still don't like them.
91
What other things are you afraid of?
92
Uh, let me think.
93
How about clowns?
94
No, clowns do not usually scare me.
95
What about big dogs?
96
Yes, big dogs always scare me.
97
I always get afraid whenever one of them gets too near me.
98
That makes two of us.
99
You don't look so well lately, Dan.
100
Are you okay?
101
Well, I've been feeling out of sorts lately.
102
I've not been sleeping well at all, and I can't concentrate.
103
Maybe I should see a doctor.
104
You need to take care of yourself.
105
You need to make your body strong.
106
How can I possibly do that?
107
It's not that hard.
108
First, you should eat healthy food.
109
I eat only healthy food,
110
but I still don't feel good.
111
Oh, yeah?
112
What do you eat?
113
In the morning, I eat frozen waffles, muffins, and flavored yogurt.
114
Then, at noon, I eat a hamburger or a pizza.
115
For dinner, I almost always have salty french fries with lots of ketchup.
116
Ketchup is very healthy, you know.
117
It comes from tomatoes.
118
For dessert, I eat ice cream,
119
which contains milk, so it's very healthy too.
120
That doesn't sound very healthy to me.
121
Maybe you should improve your diet.
122
Well, how should I do that?
123
First of all, maybe you can add in a big salad once a day.
124
You know, a big salad with lots of fresh vegetables.
125
Okay, I can do that, I guess.
126
I can have a big salad with lots of fresh vegetables once a day.
127
I know you have a job that requires you to sit all day.
128
Do you ever work out?
129
Unfortunately, I never find time to fit that goal into my schedule,
130
so I have a pretty sedentary lifestyle.
131
You don't need a gym membership or an exercise machine in your basement to stay active.
132
Instead of cramming into your office's crowded elevator every morning,
133
you can take the stairs!
134
Use this as an opportunity to get some exercise.
135
Park your car further away from your workplace or home to seize the chance to sneak in an extra few steps.
136
Thanks for the tips.
137
I'm sure they'll be very helpful.
138
Are you a morning person, Susan?
139
Yes, I am.
140
On weekdays, I get up very early, at 5.45.
141
Why?
142
Do you have to be at work so early?
143
No, I start work at 9.
144
So why do you wake up so early then?
145
First of all, early morning is quiet.
146
Nobody phones me at 6 a.m.
147
There aren't any important emails or messages to answer.
148
There aren't any meetings.
149
There aren't any people.
150
The morning is my time.
151
I prefer to do things in the morning when I have energy.
152
I do exercise for 30 minutes in my home gym and have a big breakfast.
153
Then I get ready for work and drive to the office.
154
When I get to the building where I work,
155
I go for a walk around a local park.
156
Then I go inside to start work at 9 o'clock.
157
And on Thursdays, I get up even earlier,
158
at 5.20am, to study German.
159
Getting up early helps me do more during the day.
160
I'm usually tired in the evening after a day at work.
161
And when I'm tired, the last thing I want to do is to exercise,
162
or to study, or to practice a musical instrument.
163
I find it impossible to get up early.
164
How can you do it?
165
You can start by setting your alarm five minutes earlier than you usually get up.
166
And the next day, set it five minutes earlier again.
167
After three weeks, you'll have nearly two hours that you never had before.
168
Getting up early is a big help if you have a lot of things to do.
169
It's better to go to bed early and have shorter evenings and longer mornings.
170
I don't think I want to change my schedule and my lifestyle.
171
I love to go to bed late and spending time watching TV,
172
seeing my friends, and spending time on social media.
173
Do you ever tell lies, Trisha?
174
I do sometimes, but only little white lies.
175
You know, like telling my sister her new hairstyle is great,
176
when I really don't like it?
177
Stuff like that.
178
Oh yeah, I also told my mom that I loved the gift she got me for my birthday,
179
even though I actually really hated it.
180
So, you've never told any bad lies?
181
Well, to tell you the truth,
182
I did tell a bad lie last year.
183
I wanted to borrow my friend Judy's blouse to wear it at my school dance,
184
but she refused to lend it to me.
185
Really?
186
Yes, but I didn't want to give up.
187
So I lied to her that I was sick and that I might have to go into the hospital the following week,
188
so I didn't know when I'd be able to go to a dance again.
189
She felt sorry for me and decided to lend me her blouse.
190
That was a bad lie indeed.
191
You're right.
192
Then, as if that wasn't bad enough, there's more.
193
I was dancing with my friends when someone bumped into me and spilled a drink all over I'm so sorry.
194
It was strawberry juice.
195
And the blouse was white!
196
Oh, what a bad luck.
197
I guess the blouse was ruined, right?
198
Exactly.
199
And not only the blouse was ruined, but our friendship too.
200
Because Judy found out that my story about the hospital was just a lie.
201
She just wouldn't let it slide.
202
That's too bad.
203
Maybe she would forgive you one day and trust you again.
204
I surely hope so.
205
I learned my lesson, though.
206
I would never lie to a friend like that ever again.
207
Did you like school, Anthony?
208
I didn't hate school, but I don't think I liked it very much.
209
I used to enjoy P.E.
210
I quite liked English and Spanish,
211
but there were lots of subjects I didn't like.
212
I didn't like math very much.
213
History was boring, and I found science difficult.
214
I had a small group of friends,
215
and I used to spend time with them,
216
talking about sport, talking about music.
217
So it wasn't too bad,
218
but I didn't like it very much.
219
What about you?
220
Did you like school?
221
Yeah, most of the time.
222
I always really looked forward to getting back to school.
223
What did you like about it?
224
Well, I had some good friends,
225
and I liked learning things.
226
But there were some subjects that I didn't like very much,
227
and I hated P.E.
228
I used to invent a lot of excuses,
229
like saying that I was ill,
230
because I didn't want to do it.
231
Elementary school was all fun,
232
and we had great teachers.
233
High school was harder work,
234
and we used to have lots of exams and tests.
235
But we had really inspiring teachers My favorites were in math and biology And overall,
236
yeah, I really liked it Did you have a favorite or least favorite teacher at school?
237
Yes, I liked the Spanish teacher
238
She was my favorite teacher because she was Spanish And she taught us to speak with a very good Spanish accent
239
Did she inspire you?
240
She did, and I'm still learning Spanish And I go to Spain pretty often What's your biggest regret about school?
241
Well, I wish I'd been more involved in school clubs
242
Our school had lots of clubs Where you could do things Like dance,
243
or learn to play an instrument Or play chess,
244
things like that It's a shame,
245
because I would have learned Some really useful skills,
246
I'm sure

为什么要用这个视频练习口语？
在日常生活中，进行简短的对话是学习英语口语的重要环节。这个视频展示了两位在美法两国生活的人之间的对话，提供了丰富的交流情境，适合进行英语口语练习。通过视频中的对话，学习者能够模仿母语者的发音、语调和节奏，从而提高英语发音。此外，参与这种对话能够帮助学习者在实际交流中更自信地表达自己，减少口语表达时的紧张感。
语法与表达方式分析
视频中的对话包含了多种常用的表达方式和语法结构，以下是其中几个关键点：
- 询问和回答：对话开头的“Which part of United States are you from?”展示了如何询问对方的来源地，为其他学习者提供了一个良好的句型模仿。
- 表述时间：使用“How long have you been living in France?”这样的结构，让学习者了解到如何询问居住时间，促进对生活经历的分享。
- 比较优劣：在讨论语言能力时，听者提到“I’m better at reading and writing than I am at speaking”，这个句型有助于学习者在日常交流中表达自己的优缺点。
- 文化冲击：换句话说，“Manners are incredibly important for the French people”能让学习者理解文化背景在交流中的重要性。
常见发音陷阱
在视频中，某些单词和表达可能对英语学习者构成发音挑战。例如：
- “merci”和“s'il vous plaît”：这两个法语词虽然是外语，但在跨文化对话中需要正确发音，避免让法语为母语的人感到困惑。
- “chic”：在表达时，应注意发音中的重音，尤其是在描述时尚时，这样才能传达出所需的语气。
- “impress”：在句中使用时，要特别注意这个词的重音和发音，确保在交流中被正确理解。
通过观看这个视频并进行模仿练习，学习者可以在参与雅思口语练习和提高英语发音方面获得巨大的帮助。利用“看YouTube学英语”的方式，反复练习会让您的口语能力显著提升，真正达到流利交流的目标。
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。
