6 Minute Vocabulary from bbclearningenglish.com Hello and welcome to 6 Minute Vocabulary.
2
I'm Rob.
3
And I'm Catherine.
4
And this programme is all about linking words.
5
That's the words and phrases we use to connect ideas and events when we speak or write.
6
Yes, we call them linking words and phrases.
7
They help people to follow what we're saying by showing how ideas are connected to each each other.
8
First, we'll look at some examples.
9
Next, there will be a short quiz.
10
And finally, we'll leave you with a top tip for learning vocabulary.
11
But to start with, let's listen to Angela talking about a lucky escape she had.
12
While you listen, try to answer this question – who or what saved Angela in the end?
13
Here's Angela.
14
So Angela, tell us, what did you escape from?
15
shark.
16
Wow, really?
17
Yes.
18
What happened was, I was swimming off the coast, when all of a sudden I saw a huge black shape coming towards me.
19
To begin with, I thought it was a dolphin.
20
But it wasn't.
21
So, what happened next?
22
Well, I then quickly realised it was a shark.
23
Luckily, I'm a very far swimmer, but in the end it was a boat that saved me.
24
Oh, that's an incredible story.
25
We asked who or what saved Angela? it was a boat.
26
Angela said, in the end, a boat saved me.
27
Lucky lady!
28
Now, Angela helps us to follow her story by using linking words and phrases to tell us what happened,
29
when it happened and how she felt about it.
30
Let's have a look at some of them.
31
OK.
32
Right, now the first one was right at the beginning.
33
Angela said, what happened was.. and this is a really good way to introduce a story
34
because it grabs the listeners' attention and it tells them to get ready to hear a story.
35
Have a listen.
36
What happened was, I was swimming off the coast
37
when all of a sudden I saw a huge black shape coming towards me.
38
OK, good start.
39
Now, another way to tell your story clearly is to use words that show the order of events.
40
Catherine and I did this at the beginning of this programme when we said words like first, next and finally.
41
when we said, first we'll look at examples...
42
Next there'll be a short quiz...
43
And finally, we'll leave you with a top tip.
44
Exactly!
45
Now let's listen to how Angela used words and phrases like these.
46
What happened was, I was swimming off the coast, when all of a sudden I saw a huge black shape coming towards me.
47
To begin with, I thought it was a dolphin.
48
But it wasn't.
49
So, what happened next?
50
Well, I then quickly realised it was a shark.
51
Luckily, I'm a very far swimmer but in the end it was a boat that saved me.
52
So, when you get to the end of your story, use a phrase like in the end or finally to show that your story is about to finish.
53
But in the end, it was a boat that saved me.
54
OK.
55
Now let's hear Angela tell us about how the boat saved her.
56
Fortunately, the boat had already seen the shark and fired a rocket which scared the creature off.
57
That was lucky!
58
Wow!
59
So, Angela uses the adverb fortunately as a linking word to comment on this.
60
Yes, and in the first clip, Angela said said, luckily I'm a fast swimmer.
61
And other comment adverbs you may hear include, unfortunately, sadly and so on.
62
And we can also use adverbs and adverbial phrases like suddenly or all of a sudden, which we heard in the first clip, to say how things happen.
63
We're listening to BBC Learning English.
64
We're talking about words and phrases that link different sentences and parts of a story.
65
Yep, and it's time for a quick recap.
66
So, to start a story we had...
67
Well, what happened was...
68
For ordering events...
69
First of all, to begin with.. then.. next.. after that...
70
To finish a story...
71
Finally, in the end...
72
To make a comment...
73
Luckily...
74
Unfortunately...
75
Sadly...
76
And lastly we had...
77
Suddenly...
78
All of a sudden...
79
Great!
80
Now it's quiz time!
81
Choose a correct linking word or phrase to fill the gaps.
82
Ready?
83
Number one.
84
I tried for weeks to get a ticket to the final.
85
I gave up.
86
Is it A in the end or B next?
87
It's A in the end.
88
Well done.
89
Now number two.
90
It started to rain.
91
I had an umbrella with me.
92
Is it a suddenly or b luckily?
93
It's b luckily.
94
Yep.
95
And finally, number three, which is the correct phrase to introduce your story?
96
Is it a what happened was or b what happened it?
97
And it's a what happened was.
98
It is indeed and well done to you if you got those right.
99
Now before we finish, here's Rob with a quick tip for learning vocabulary.
100
Yes.
101
Why not make a note of new linking devices when you hear other people speak English?
102
On the bus, waiting in a queue or watching TV?
103
Note them on your phone or just write them down somewhere and then try to use them yourself.
104
Top tip, Rob, thank you.

日常交流中的五个常用短语

  • 首先 (First): 用于引入故事或事件的开始。
  • 接下来 (Next): 用于描述事件的后续发展。
  • 最后 (Finally): 用于总结故事或事件的结束。
  • 一开始 (To begin with): 用于阐明故事的初始情况。
  • 但是 (But): 用于引入与前述内容相对立的观点或情况。

逐步影子跟读指南

如果你想通过这个视频来提高你的英语发音和口语能力,以下是一个逐步的影子跟读方法,帮助你更好地掌握其中的内容:

  1. 观看与聆听: 首先,看YouTube学英语,注意Angela讲述她的故事,关注她的语音语调和语速。
  2. 暂停与模仿: 在关键短语出现时暂停视频,尝试模仿Angela的发音和情感表达。这可以帮助你提高英语发音。
  3. 重复练习: 逐句地重复Angela讲的内容,力求跟上她的速度。在重复的过程中,集中注意口腔的发音位置和气息的掌控。
  4. 使用链接词: 特别留意链接词的运用,例如“首先”,“接下来”和“但是”,学习如何自然地将其融入到自己的叙述中。
  5. 分享与应用: 最后,尝试在与他人交流时运用你学到的短语和结构,进行英语口语练习,提高自己的口语能力。

通过以上方法,相信你可以有效提升自己的英语水平,并在日常交流中更加自信地使用英语。

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。
