1
I did not agree with many of the things
2
that you said right ahead of this
3
but I don't think that's my point to discuss here what
4
I want to ask is you are married to a woman
5
who is not Christian in her Wikipedia I mean I just looked
6
that up I wanted to know what her faith was I didn't know this before
7
but she still calls herself Hindu you are raising two kids three kids in internal racial,
8
cultural, racial, religious household.
9
How are you maintaining or how are you teaching your kids not to keep your religion ahead of their mother's religion?
10
Or how are you teaching them that your kind,
11
their dad kind, who got here just a few years
12
or a few decades ago is different
13
or is better than your mom's kind who got here just a generation before how are you balancing
14
that and when you talk about too many immigrants here what is
15
when did you guys decide
16
that number why did you sell us a dream you made us spent our youth our wealth in this country
17
and gave us a dream you don't owe us anything we
18
have worked hard for it then how can you as a vice president stand there
19
and say that we have too many of them now
20
and we are going to take them out to people who are here rightfully
21
so by paying the money that you guys asked us you gave us the path
22
and now can now how can you stop it
23
and tell us we don't belong here anymore so
24
and one more thing i'm sorry one more thing do you have to be a lot there i don't know
25
if i'm going to remember all this
26
but i will try i'm sorry i'm sorry i had to say all of this
27
and please take it with you i mean i'm saying all
28
of course no no go ahead i have no intention of causing a scene here
29
or anything but we're not close to causing a scene don't worry
30
but we talked about christianity all of this i'm I'm not even Christian and I'm here standing to sow support.
31
Why are we making Christianity one of the major thing
32
that you have to have in common to be one of you guys,
33
to so that I love America just as you do Why is that still a question?
34
Why do I have to be a Christian?
35
Okay, so I there was a lot there
36
and I'm gonna try to respond to as much of it as I can so on on the question of Immigration,
37
so first of all I can believe that we should have lower immigration levels,
38
but if the United States passed a law and and made a promise to somebody,
39
the United States, of course,
40
has to honor that promise.
41
Nobody's talking about that.
42
I'm talking about people who came in in violation of the laws of the United States of America,
43
and I'm talking about in the future reducing the number,
44
reducing the number of people.
45
Sorry, what?
46
Can I continue on that?
47
Because when you just said you are not stopping with the people who came here legally, right?
48
But you are pushing out policies that hurt us.
49
And these policies are not even solving the problems.
50
These policies are just creating chaos.
51
No, no, ma'am.
52
Okay, so again, I'm going to finish answering the question.
53
And then if I've answered all nine of your questions in less than 15 minutes,
54
then we can keep on going.
55
We got to have a little fun, right?
56
So here's the thing.
57
I can believe that the United States should lower its levels of immigration in the future
58
while also respecting that there are people who have come here through lawful immigration pathways that have contributed to the country.
59
But just because one person or 10 people or 100 people came in legally and contributed to the United States of America,
60
does that mean that we're thereby committed to let in a million
61
or 10 million or 100 million people a year in the future?
62
No, that's not right.
63
We cannot have, I'll go and finish,
64
we cannot have an immigration policy where what was good for the country 50
65
or 60 years ago binds the country inevitably for the future.
66
There's too many people who want to come to the United States of America,
67
and my job as vice president is not to look out for the interests of the whole world,
68
it's to look out for the people of the United States.
69
Now, you asked a personal question about our interfaith household.
70
And yes, my wife did not grow up Christian.
71
I think it's fair to say that she grew up in a Hindu family,
72
but not a particularly religious family in either direction.
73
In fact, when I met my wife,
74
we were both, I would consider myself an agnostic or an atheist.
75
And that's what I think she would have considered herself as well.
76
You know, everybody has to come to their own arrangement here.
77
The way that we've come to our arrangement is she's my best friend we talk to each other about this stuff.
78
So we decided to raise our kids Christian.
79
Our two oldest kids who go to school,
80
they go to a Christian school.
81
Our eight-year-old did his first communion about a year ago.
82
That's the way that we have come to our arrangement.
83
But thank you.
84
My eight-year-old was also very proud of his first communion.
85
Thank you guys.
86
I'll tell him that Ole Miss wishes him the best.
87
But I think everybody has to have this own conversation when you're in a marriage.
88
I mean, it's true for friends of mine who are in Protestant and Catholic marriages,
89
friends of mine who are in,
90
you know, atheist and Christian marriages.
91
You just got to talk to your,
92
the only advice I can give is you just got to talk to the person that God has put you with,
93
and you've got to make those decisions as a family unit.
94
For us, it works out.
95
Now, most Sundays, Usha will come with me to church.
96
As I've told her, and I've said publicly,
97
and I'll say now in front of 10,000 of my closest friends,
98
do I hope eventually that she is somehow moved by the same thing that I was moved in by church?
99
Yeah, I honestly do wish that because I believe in the Christian gospel,
100
and I hope eventually my wife comes to see it the same way.
101
But if she doesn't, then God says everybody has free will,
102
and so that doesn't cause a problem for me.
103
That's something you work out with your friends,
104
with your family, with the person that you love.
105
Again, one of the most important Christian principles is that you respect free will.
106
Usha's closer to the priests who baptized me than maybe I am.
107
They talk about this stuff.
108
My attitude is you figure this stuff out as a family,
109
and you trust in God to have a plan,
110
and you try to follow it as best as you can.
111
And that's what I try to do.
112
I want to make a final point.
113
So I don't want to cut you off.
114
I want to be respectful to all the people behind you in line.
115
But I want to make this point about immigration, okay?
116
if you ask the question,
117
what is the exact right number of immigrants for the United States to let in,
118
it is just very specific on the context.
119
If you go back to the 1920s,
120
the United States passed an Immigration Reform Act
121
that effectively cut down immigration to close to zero for 40 years in this country.
122
And what happened over those 40 years?
123
The many, many people who had come from many different foreign countries and different foreign cultures,
124
they assimilated into American culture.
125
And there was an expectation that they would assimilate into American culture.
126
I think we have two problems in our immigration system today.
127
And my guess is you're probably a slightly more leftist political persuasion,
128
liberal political persuasion, maybe not.
129
But here's the thing.
130
I remember back in my establishment GOP days,
131
when I was still very early getting involved in Republican politics,
132
I remember a conservative think tank person who told me that one of the reasons why immigration was really good
133
is that if you had enough diversity in a country,
134
people would mistrust each other and they wouldn't join labor unions.
135
Okay?
136
So when I see a lot of left-wing people who theoretically support organized labor saying,
137
we need to flood the country with a limitless number of immigrants,
138
they're unwilling to set any limitations on it,
139
my response to that is,
140
you are destroying the very social trust on which American freedom and prosperity was built.
141
And that is really important to me.
142
So the honest answer to your question,
143
what is the exact number of immigrants America should accept in the future?
144
Right now, the answer is far less than we've been accepting.
145
We have got to become a common community again.
146
And you can't do that when you have such high numbers of immigration,
147
which is one of the reasons why we have the immigration policy we do.
148
Thank you.

练习技巧
在观看视频时，建议学习者使用英语影子跟读的方式进行练习。由于演讲者的语速较快，学习者可以尝试以下步骤：
- 首先，观看视频一次，了解演讲者所表达的主要观点和语境。
- 然后，分段播放视频，暂停并回放较难的部分，确保理解每句的意思。
- 接下来，跟随演讲者的发音、语调和节奏进行英语口语练习。可以尝试在沉默的间隙中复述演讲内容，以增强记忆和口语能力。
- 利用shadow speaks的技巧，尽量模仿演讲者的语气和情感，这有助于提高发音和语言的自然性。

通过这种方式，不仅可以提高口语能力，还能更深刻地理解移民文化背景，增强与他人谈论相关话题的自信。记得在练习时可以多看看看YouTube学英语的视频，选择适合自己的内容进行重复训练。
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。
