1
Hey everybody, so this is my new character guy who becomes Southern When he holds broccoli...
2
Thank you.
3
Hello?
4
I am a normal person.
5
Except when I hold broccoli.
6
I become Southern.
7
- Yeah.
8
And when I'm not holding broccoli...
9
I'm not Southern.
10
But when I am, I am Southern.
11
Thank you.
12
Um...
13
And it's very interesting because, you know, I wouldn't say that it's particularly...
14
debilitating because...
15
I don't really hold broccoli very often.
16
I'm not in very many situations where I'm forced to hold broccoli.
17
- Yeah.
18
But.. you know, if I'm at a
19
party or there's a veggie platter and then it's going to be kind of fun to be like "Hey, I have to show you something." You know,
20
when I pick up broccoli, I become Southern, but I'm not Southern when I'm not holding it.
21
Thank you.
22
Thank you.
23
Yeah!
24
Thank you.
25
So it's very strange because the doctor,
26
I went to a psychiatrist and explain the situation.
27
And most people think that I'm doing a bit
28
you know and they're like well can you just stop doing that And I'm like, no, I can't because it's involuntary.
29
and most of the time - man - and - and most of the times people laugh at first
30
but then it I keep doing it and they don't understand that I'm not doing it on purpose.
31
So they're like, okay, stop, you know.
32
That was funny for a while, but can you stop, please?
33
And I have to be like, no, I swear, I can't help it.
34
It happens if I can't control that when I hold broccoli, I turn southern.
35
I wish I didn't.
36
I wish that it didn't happen.
37
you know, and I wish that it, you know, it was something that the doctor said that Um...
38
you know he didn't really know what was going on.
39
But I could tell that he thought, he didn't think it was a legitimate medical issue.
40
And maybe it's not.
41
You know, my psychiatrist said, well, obviously this is some psychosomatic thing where you feel compelled to do bits.
42
And I said, no. Ah.
43
This is just who I am.
44
I don't know why it happens.
45
It's happened since I was a young man.
46
And it still happens even when I'm an adult.
47
- Yeah. And...
48
It happens in my other hand, too.
49
But what's really interesting is if I throw it up in the air, this happens.
50
So if I throw it up in the air, then this happens.
51
And if it's not in my hand for a certain period of time, then I become not southern when it's not in my hand.
52
Thank you.
53
Thank you.
54
Thank you.
55
Thank you.
56
you Thank you.
57
Thank you.
58
Thank you.
59
Okay.
为什么要通过这个视频练习口语？
在学习英语的过程中，口语流利度是非常重要的。这个视频展示了一位男士变得“南方口音”的有趣场景，适合用来进行英语影子跟读练习。通过模仿他的发音和语调，学生能够清晰地感受到口音的变化与语境的搭配，这对提高口语能力尤其有帮助。
通过跟随视频中的角色，并尝试重复他的话，学习者可以练习如何在特定的情境下自然表达自己。这种练习不仅使你对口语的掌握更为牢固，也有助于你在社交场合中自信地表现自己。
语法与表达的语境分析
在视频中，讲者使用了若干有趣的句型。以下是几个关键结构：
- I become Southern when I hold broccoli. - 这个句型展示了因果关系，适合用来表达条件句。
- It happens if I can't control that. - 这是一个经典的条件句，适合讨论无法控制的状况。
- I wish that it didn't happen. - 这里用到的虚拟语气表示对现实的期望与愿望，非常适合用来表达对过去或现在的想法。
- Most people think that I'm doing a bit. - 这个表达展示了他人对自我行为的看法，能够帮助学习者学习如何描述他人的反应。
常见的发音陷阱
这段视频中，讲话者的口音变化是重中之重。这里有几个需要注意的发音陷阱：
- Southern - 发音时注意 /ˈsʌð.ərn/，容易和其他地区的发音混淆。
- Broccoli - 确保清楚地发出 /ˈbrɑː.kə.li/ 这个词，很多学习者可能会发错音。
- Happens - 注意最后的 /z/ 音，可能在快速对话中被忽略。
熟悉这些发音后，通过shadow speak练习，你将能够更得体地表达自己，提高口语流利度。试着在日常生活中寻找机会练习这些结构和词汇，使你的英语表达更为自信。
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。
