1
Good morning! Can I ask you a question?
2
Who succeeds in life? Is it the most talented people?
3
Angela Duckworth wanted to find out.
4
Her answer became a famous book called Grit.
5
Before she was a scientist, Duckworth was a maths teacher.
6
And she noticed something strange.
7
Some of her smartest students didn't do very well.
8
And some students who struggled at first did brilliantly!
9
Later, she studied new cadets at West Point, a famous army academy.
10
Their first summer there is incredibly tough.
11
Some cadets quit after just a few weeks.
12
So who stayed? Not the strongest, and not the smartest.
13
The ones who stayed had grit.
14
Grit means passion and perseverance for long-term goals.
15
In simple words, you love something, and you don't give up.
16
Duckworth also says effort counts twice.
17
First, effort turns your talent into skill.
18
Then, effort turns that skill into real success.
19
Her family even has a fun rule. They call it the Hard Thing Rule.
20
Everyone must do one hard thing, like the violin or ballet.
21
And you can't quit in the middle. You finish the season first.
22
So, if you're not the most talented person, don't worry.
23
Find something you love, and keep going.
24
Especially on the hard days!

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。
