跟读练习: I Bought A 40 Year Old Firetruck - 通过视频学习英语口语

Guys, as you know, I'm all about safety.

And the thing is, I started thinking about it.

I'm like, you know what?

We need something around here to up our safety ratings.

And I was scrolling through an auction site and I found this bad boy.

That's right.

I bought a 50,000 pound fire truck.

Only gave five grand for this bad boy.

And the thing is, right?

We do know that it runs.

We do know that it drives, but we don't know if the water cannons work.

We don't know if any of the other stuff works on it.

I'll tell you this though.

All you gotta do is figure out how to put water in it.

And we're fighting fires.

We're going to the fire station?

Yeah, we're going to go to the fire station so they'll fill it up for us.

Do you know how to fill it up?

Yeah.

We bought this from an airport down in the Gulf of Mexico.

I guess the Gulf of America now.

We went down there, hauled it home, and the guy told us absolutely nothing about it except for they put new batteries in it, and they're like, it's ready to go.

You know, they say the road's good.

Yeah, it does.

Except for the fuel you can put in.

Well, it's a fire truck.

If we catch this fire, we can put it out.

All right, let's go ask them to fill it up in the water.

Hey, can I bother you guys for something?

My fire truck's empty.

Wondering if you guys could fill it up.

Oh my god.

Oh, don't get jealous now.

Aw, hell, I want one of those.

Imagine how many times you're not gonna have to come to my property and put out fires now.

Thank you for doing that.

Oh.

Can we fill that up somewhere?

Probably gonna have to go downtown and get a meter.

And then you're probably gonna have to go to the water plant to pick the meter up.

Sounds like a lot of steps.

I was just thinking if you guys had a wrench.

Actually, could you all show us how to use it?

Dude, I like how much they all like it.

They look like they're having fun in there.

Dude, we should go steal one of theirs.

Guess we gotta go someplace else.

The problem is when you got the camera on, can't really do sketchy things.

Don't worry about what's gonna happen as soon as the camera turns off.

Just know right now the fire truck has no water in it

and later the fire truck is gonna have water in it.

Like right.

Guys, it's currently all the way full of water.

We got about 2,000 gallons of water on board, which means this thing is absolutely ready to put out some fires.

Oh no!

Don't touch the horn anymore.

I got excited, I'm sorry.

I don't know how to read that gauge.

Does that gauge seem full to you?

Yeah, I think that's the good to go message.

Good to go.

It's giving me Morse code.

It says, I'm so full of fuel right now.

So what we're gonna do is we're gonna drive this thing all the way to the ranch.

Now the ranch in a normal truck is about 30 minutes.

And this thing, I have a feeling it might be a bit longer.

This right here, this is for your up top water cannon, right?

So you hit that button right there and it will blow water as far as you want to blow water.

And this thing has two water cannons on the front of it.

I'd be so terrified if I was other people on the road right now.

I'm terrified that I'm in here.

Oh, we have to turn that light off.

It's a felony if we don't turn it off.

Alright, I'll pull over and figure it out.

I thought everybody was lying about the blinky light actually being blinky.

The blinky light is blinking.

Still on.

Still going.

Well guys, good news is, we've made it about 10 miles into our journey to the range.

The fire truck is working, if anything, too good.

I've flipped every switch, and I mean every switch inside of the truck, and it won't turn off.

I've got an idea.

This is the best idea I have.

It's even stretching over it.

Oh, God.

Don't worry, I put new socks on this one.

It smells like s*.

What?

Yeah, look at that.

Yeah.

If we go to jail, I'll only have one sock, but whatever.

Alright, guys.

Felony avoided.

I feel like that's pretty ingenious.

Yeah, good idea.

I don't want to alarm any of y'all, but we're only six miles away from the ranch now.

She's gonna make it!

Hold on, this might get bumpy.

Woohoo!

100

Oh, f!

101

I've driven down this in a regular truck, and I can't tell if this is better or worse.

102

I think it might be better.

103

Oh, f*, maybe not.

104

I don't think it's ever gonna translate on camera!

105

I'm a big man, and my ass just left the seat.

106

Made it, baby!

107

Here we go.

108

Wanna see how far this goes?

109

Ready?

110

This is a fantastic water truck!

111

Water truck is like way more expensive than what he spent on

112

that and we were needing a water truck to do some of the ground work around here at Horsepower Ranch.

113

We've actually found something really useful accidentally that we could use this truck for.

114

Are you You having fun with your big water truck?

115

See guys, you might be wondering why we need a fire truck, right?

116

Well the thing is, imagine we're standing here at the ranch and then for no reason whatsoever, a car burst into flames.

117

Oh sh!

118

See, that is dangerous, right?

119

You gotta watch out for that.

120

What would you do if you didn't have a fire truck?

121

But don't worry, Champlin Fire Department is here to save the day.

122

Don't worry, I'm coming to the rescue!

123

It won't start.

124

Oh, that's really on fire now.

125

Start.

126

Please start.

127

Uh, Weston, that's looking kinda bad.

128

I get it!

129

I get it!

130

Hold on!

131

Hold on!

132

Give me one second!

133

Ooh, parking brake.

134

Yes!

135

Champlin Fire Department's on the job!

136

Some stuff's happening.

137

Here we come, boys!

138

Oh, stop!

139

Stop!

140

Okay, maybe I hit that one a little too hard.

141

Hold on.

142

All right, let's hit him with the double.

143

and yeah there we go

144

yeah a Kimbo style double water jet yeah and guys just like

145

that champ when fire department has got the fire out in no time I hit the brakes

146

and the brakes This did not work very well.

147

Damn, I did good.

148

See how fast I responded?

149

I seen that you ran into the car before you were supposed to save.

150

No, I was responding fast.

151

That's what happened.

152

At that point, did you realize, man, I might have f*ed up?

153

Yeah.

154

I see more fire there.

155

Don't worry, Champlin Fire Department's on the scene.

156

And guys, just like that, you can put out a car fire.

157

And don't worry, here at the Horsepower Ranch, if we have a car fire, we're safe because we got this bad boy.

158

This thing was $5,000.

159

And for five grand, I can launch water 200 feet into there and put out car fires.

160

How could you turn that down?

161

Now, the problem is I need about a 10 times bigger tank because it has 2,000 gallons of water.

162

And I just went through 2,000 gallons of water to put that car out.

163

But besides that, we did good.

164

Guys, as you know, we're pretty rough on stuff around here.

165

We're rough on our cars.

166

We're rough on our tools.

167

We're rough on our shoes.

168

But thanks to today's sponsor, well, we've got one of those things handled.

169

Guys, Brunt Workwear decided to sponsor us.

170

And you know what?

171

I've actually wore these boots before they ever decided to come on as a partner of the channel for a long time.

172

And I love these things.

173

I'm a man of a very large stature.

174

For me, I roll over my shoes always to the outside.

175

So I'll wear this edge down really, really fast and the whole boot will turn over

176

and I'll have to get a new set of boots every three to four months.

177

I've had these bad boys last up to a year.

178

Now, that might not sound like a long time.

179

But for me, that's a pretty good amount of time.

180

And another thing is Brunt boots are made for trade workers.

181

I know a lot of you guys are mechanics, truck drivers, stuff like that.

182

And the thing is, Brunt has a bunch of different options depending on what you need for your line of work.

183

They got waterproof, composite toe, soft toe, cowboy boots, slip resistant.

184

And Brunt is so confident in their boots.

185

They're going to let you guys try them out at your job.

186

And if you don't like them, all you got to do is send them back.

187

So for those of you guys that are out there and your boots are falling apart, use my link down here and use code WESTIN10 to get $10 off your first purchase over $60 on Brunt.

188

Brunt, thank you for sponsoring today's video.

189

Let's get back to the episode.

190

So guys, here's the thing.

191

We've got to the ranch here, right?

192

And we've got our fire truck here.

193

Now, ignore the knocking noises coming from the back of it.

194

That just started, and we're not sure why.

195

But the good news is she blows water, and I've got the perfect way to test out the water cannons.

196

What happens if one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine barrels were stacked up and on fire together, right?

197

Could we put them out?

198

Well, there's only one way to find out.

199

I noticed you also have two of these.

200

Do you want to have a competition to see who can knock over their pile the fastest?

201

Yeah.

202

You wanna go first?

203

I don't even know how it works again, but sure.

204

Yeah, yeah, you'll go get in there You got it.

205

All right, okay.

206

You see that switch right there down there.

207

It says water What dude there's like literally 500 buttons in here right there in front of you

208

500 agent selector valve water or foam push it towards water what next it didn't kick in

209

All right wrap it up a little bit maybe Hmm I think I wrapped it down yeah By the way,

210

another problem with Weston's fire truck, we have brand new batteries in it, but it will not stay charged.

211

You have to jump it.

212

Okay, we'll be back momentarily.

213

Oh, maybe this needs to be tight.

214

Try it now.

215

I'm trying it.

216

Is it in neutral?

217

No. I think these new batteries we got are shit.

218

You know, have you ever considered maybe the batteries aren't the problem, but the truck might be?

219

Shut your mouth.

220

All right, listen, I don't talk shit about your G-Wagon.

221

My G-Wagon's over there running.

222

It's fine.

223

I actually think it might have ran out of diesel.

224

You know, it's a really, really good thing that we're not firefighters.

225

Well, you give us a day or two to get ready.

226

We'll be ready for the fire.

227

If it was like a pre-ordered fire, they're like, yeah, a day ahead of time, we would be the best firefighters ever.

228

But if it's an emergency, not the best, no. All right, try wrapping it up.

229

All right, flip the water off and then back on.

230

Should have a kick on that red light in the middle.

231

There you go.

232

There it goes.

233

All right, how do I fire it?

234

Did I do something?

235

Oh wait wait is it still going?

236

No, I hit the button again turn it off there.

237

It leaks a little.

238

Is the water supposed to come in here?

239

Yeah, it's a it's a water-cooled seat.

240

Is the thing waterproof?

241

Is what waterproof?

242

The fire truck?

243

I mean, I don't know.

244

I wasn't driving in the river.

245

What does this yellow thing do?

246

Oh, that runs the cannon on the front.

247

That cannon don't work as good as the one on the roof.

248

I still want to use it.

249

There's a handle by your right ass cheek.

250

Pull it forward.

251

Dude, it sounds like a machine gun from in here.

252

So are my barrels the one on the right or the left, do you think?

253

I'll take the one on the right.

254

What's the winner win?

255

Not having to eat a salad at lunch.

256

All right, we'll do that.

257

All right, start.

258

Go ahead. That feels great.

259

I can't tell if we knocked them over at all.

260

Oh, there's still this on there.

261

All right, that's the time.

262

How do I turn it off?

263

Over your shoulder push that thing back hit the no hit the red button hit the no hit the red button

264

Hit the red button now push that back behind you behind you push that back now No, the other thing the gold the gold thing yeah push that There you go.

265

It's good It's just got some it's got some quirks.

266

Oh, I forgot to stop this time One minute 14 one minute 1564 Timed it.

267

I don't know what to tell you.

268

You should have done it faster.

269

Why are you cheating?

270

I'm not cheating.

271

Add Zach!

272

I was also specifically disqualified because we told you to hit the left one.

273

Yeah, you knocked down mine.

274

You hit the right one.

275

No, I said I'm taking the ones to the right.

276

This is- Yeah, cuz they're closer.

277

Yeah, they are closer.

278

You can reposition when you go to do the other one.

279

Alright, fine.

280

Let me in there.

281

Let me see what I can do.

282

Guys, Garrett put down a very admirable time of 1 minute 15.

283

No way, it was way lower than 1 15.

284

No, I'm pretty sure it was 1 15.

285

All right, your time starts now.

286

Now?

287

Hey, what's my time?

288

You used a cannon.

289

What are you doing?

290

Oh, you're right.

291

I'm sorry.

292

I forgot.

293

Well, Weston's time was 20 seconds.

294

God damn it.

295

Disqualified.

296

He did not use the cannon all the way.

297

He knocked over most of them.

298

Just running them over.

299

All right, what was my time?

300

Are you serious?

301

I knocked over all your barrels too, by the way.

302

It was 20.63.

303

Damn, I'm good.

304

Well, you know, we had a competition.

305

The best man won.

306

Yeah, you're really a lot more skilled at barrel bowling.

307

Do you think there's else to this thing?

308

Could like, we use this to justify buying a 100,000 pound fire truck?

309

Oh yeah, I got multiple ways to justify it.

310

You know how much of a pain that ass it is to clean your RV?

311

Yeah, it's actually a massive pain in the ass.

312

It takes for all afternoon.

313

Not anymore.

314

So guys, here's the thing, right?

315

Obviously, this fire truck is very handy in multiple scenarios.

316

Fires?

317

Yes.

318

Knocking down barrels?

319

Yes.

320

But what happens, say, if you got your RV here and it's dirty and you need to clean it off real quick?

321

Yeah, that RV's not dirty, though.

322

Nah, it's...

323

Look, it's filthy.

324

Hold on.

325

Oh, .

326

Look how clean it's getting!

327

Oh, .

328

There goes the AC unit!

329

Clean the out of that one!

330

You just simulated a hurricane.

331

Ooh, I feel like I might have damaged the front window there, Garrett.

332

Well, at least we got insurance.

333

At this rate, you might as well clean the interior.

334

You want to open up the door?

335

Oh, don't worry.

336

I'll go around to the other side.

337

I only got one side done.

338

All right, guys.

339

Now, this is the best way there is to clean an RV.

340

Now on, and just a little thing there and...

341

Dude, it's like brand new.

342

I know.

343

So guys, here's the thing.

344

Kennedy is our assistant and she started work for us years ago, right?

345

And she's kind of more from an assistant to now she kind of handles everything that happens behind the scenes.

346

The reason why people's emails get responded to and all of the stuff

347

that we need to get done on a daily basis with business happens is because of Kennedy.

348

Merchandise, website, YouTube, schedules.

349

I mean, the list is literally endless.

350

So, guys, her CRVs wore out.

351

Got 250,000 miles.

352

Thing dies when she comes to a stoplight.

353

She needs a new car.

354

So we got her a new car.

355

Da-da-da!

356

Uhhhhhhhhh Now, as far as like fancy cars go, it's not a Ferrari

357

But she is brought up for like what maybe the last

358

two weeks how bad she wants to go get a new

359

car The other day she pulled up to talk to me

360

and her CRV died in the middle of the street And then she's like you know, I really think like the Mazda CX-5's those are nice cars Those are like really really good cars.

361

I've been looking at one of those.

362

So that's what we got her!

363

Look at this rig!

364

It's got 80,000 miles.

365

It's a 2017

376

377

I didn't say a single thing about her birthday.

378

Not a damn thing.

379

Well, you know what's funny?

380

She said something yesterday about like, I forgot her birthday.

381

Let's take it for a rip.

392

What is he swimming?

393

Screw to the tires.

394

I mean, this thing's nice.

395

The other thing about this test drive here is you want it to just be completely uneventful.

396

Don't want to be too fast.

397

Don't want it to break down.

398

Yeah, pretty uneventful.

399

This is an action movie now, guys.

400

Oh, they can't outrun them.

401

Okay, we got to put a turbo on this thing.

402

416

I think we ought to pull it down to the warehouse.

417

Once it's in the warehouse, we'll show Parker.

418

Now we've got to figure out how to surprise Kennedy with it.

419

Also, on top of that, just to make sure this thing is dialed and ready, And we got some goodies to take and decorate a car.

420

So we got Pikachu.

421

She loves Pokemon.

422

Like, Kennedy absolutely loves Pokemon.

423

So we got Pikachu.

424

We got a Pokeball or whatever they're called.

425

Pink steering wheel cover.

426

Soft, furry seatbelt covers.

427

Here, hold that.

428

That's your color.

429

I like this.

430

Why is there a disco ball?

431

Anyway, we got all this stuff.

432

So we're going to go show Parker the car, see what he thinks of it.

433

And then while I'm doing that, do you want to decorate this, Batgirl?

434

What do you think behind this door?

435

I don't know, dude.

436

Parker doesn't know anything about the Secret Society.

437

You have to initiate him.

438

I was just writing emails and now I'm here.

439

Oh, no, no. Here, come here.

440

No. Her.

441

Yeah.

442

What?

443

Dude, she's going to freak out.

444

Yeah, I know.

445

Her car is falling apart.

446

Yeah, I know.

447

You know, the other day, we were up the street and she stopped.

448

And I think it died.

449

No, it doesn't die.

450

It almost just almost dies almost not yeah I think you mentioned a CX-5

451

or maybe she did like all the CX-5s are good cars.

452

Yeah, so I found one You did that was literally like two days ago.

453

I'm good at my job We had to move quickly to get it.

454

That's sick dude.

455

What the heck?

456

Here's the keychain

457

My thought is we have to make your day a little worse before we make it better

458

I was thinking about sending Josiah to go borrow a car

459

and then putting it down here by the big bump

460

and Taking the front tires off

461

and laying it down on the ground now as soon as

462

she sees her car like out there She's immediately gonna be like something's going on.

463

Well, we're gonna have to hurry up or she's gonna drive down Yeah, all right.

464

467

Okay Is that clean title?

468

471

I'm not gonna fold.

472

I just can't promise you that I'm gonna be convincing.

473

All right, let me pretend to be her real quick.

474

Where the f* were you?

475

Uh, Weston bought you a new car.

476

I f*ing know!

477

I knew it!

478

I knew it!

479

Alright, lock him in the building!

480

What if I just get in the driver's seat and you get in behind me?

481

And I'm like, Kennedy, come on, we gotta go.

482

Yeah, we could be like, people love your CRV, so hop in.

483

We're gonna take it for a rip.

484

And then we'll just drag on it the whole time.

485

And we just f*ing send it, dude.

486

Yeah.

487

Keys aren't in it.

488

Go ask for them.

489

Yes!

490

This thing is a piece of sh.

491

At least that was for me.

492

I don't know.

493

Man, this thing has no power.

494

God dang.

495

Is there a handbrake in this thing?

496

Oh, there is and it works.

497

You want to see a handbrake slide in this thing?

498

Dude!

499

This thing's a good drifter.

500

It's a guy that's pretty kidding, he's CRV.

501

I need to make sure it slides for when we get down here when we get down here.

502

Oh, this thing hates that.

503

I feel like he's gonna fall apart.

504

What?

505

What's that?

506

What is that?

507

Drive to the yard a bit.

508

What are you doing?

509

Shh, shh.

510

Kenway.

511

What?

512

Why'd you loan Weston your car to go rally racing?

513

I didn't.

514

Weston's using your car as a rally car right now.

515

Literally, Josiah said...

516

Well, I need to say this.

517

Josiah lied.

518

Josiah lied?

519

Yeah, he's retaining the rally course.

520

Come on.

521

No, you're not!

522

Yes, we are!

523

Dude, look how bad I'm sweating in this thing.

524

It is so hot.

525

She drives this thing every day.

526

It's the AC, uh, god damn.

527

You're gonna do all the talking when she comes out.

528

I just needed an oil change.

529

Hey!

530

What are you doing?

531

I'm changing oil in your car!

532

You feel overqualified for that job!

533

She's gonna get so pissed when I drive it up on the side of you.

534

Hey, look at us, buddy!

535

No!

536

It's like Nash!

537

It's squeaking the whole way.

538

It's like, what is going on here?

539

I don't know.

540

The tent is coming off.

541

The paint is coming off.

542

Sorry, I can't hear you over the rattling.

543

What'd you say?

544

The paint is coming off.

545

The tent is coming off.

546

Okay, get in.

547

My car cannot see me.

548

Stop.

549

It is not equipped for this.

550

You're not even looking at the front.

551

I don't even think you know what this thing's capable of.

552

It's not capable.

553

Really?

554

You sure?

555

What?

556

I think it's mine!

557

What?

558

Goddamn!

559

We almost got out of real access!

560

Oh my god!

561

Don't worry, we're not f*ing up, it's fine.

562

You have insurance, don't you?

563

Yes, but there is a bump coming up.

564

Oh, there is a bump!

565

Oh no!

566

Oh, that soaked it up!

567

It actually wasn't bad.

568

Why are you- Woohoo!

569

No!

570

Why are we destroying my car?

571

We're not destroying it, Kennedy!

572

The thing is, I had to get the oil hot before we change it.

573

It has 230,000 miles, and it's not made- No. Hamburgers, right?

574

No!

575

That does not feel good.

576

I thought we were going over here.

577

Oh, sorry.

578

Oh, yeah, alright.

579

Oh, shit!

580

What was that?

581

That was a bad sound.

582

I'm sorry.

583

I didn't mean to do that.

584

That was not good.

585

You want to take her on the rally course?

586

Yeah, let's go!

587

No!

588

What are you doing?

589

What?

590

Why are you destroying my car?

591

I'm not destroying her.

592

I'm trying to help you.

593

You said you wanted an oil change.

594

I'm trying to get her warmed up before we change the oil.

595

I do not even know how it changes.

596

You know, I just normally put it in the garage and...

597

You brought this thing?

598

That's a damn knock and sewing machine under there.

599

You hear that?

600

If you put a can right here, it likes to rattle a lot.

601

Alright, hold on.

602

Let me go ahead and turn around and go back.

603

Oh, that sounds horrible.

604

That's awful.

605

What are you doing?

606

Happy birthday, Kennedy.

607

Happy birthday.

608

What was it?

609

Look at that!

610

You're joking, dude.

611

You think I would destroy your car on a regular day?

612

Yes, I actually would!

613

I probably would.

614

You're joking.

615

Did you get it at the auction?

616

Yes, but it's a nice car.

617

You said I forgot your birthday, Kennedy.

618

What the hell? the hell you didn't tell me happy birthday

625

Oh, happy birthday.

626

Garrett bought it.

627

You mentioned you wanted a CX-5 like four days ago.

628

I did.

629

And I know you was looking for a car because, well, this thing's got 80,000 miles on it.

630

Runs and drives great, good tires.

631

I just drove it.

632

It's like buttery smooth.

633

But here's the question, right?

634

We can borrow it at any time to go rally racing.

635

No, no you cannot.

636

What are you talking about?

637

We're not doing that.

638

No way.

639

You absolutely kill it.

640

You make sure that we all get all of our stuff done.

641

You somehow handle all the logistics that it takes to run what we do every day.

642

I'm in shock.

643

Like, I actually don't even know what to say, because I am in shock.

644

This one, AC blows and stuff doesn't rattle out of the cup holder.

645

I know, I just, it's not even making any sound.

646

I know.

647

Oh my gosh, you guys!

648

You're doing way too much.

649

Okay, we can do less.

650

Happy birthday.

651

Thank you.

652

Dude.

653

Get in, go for a drive.

654

Guys, Kennedy has done a fantastic job for all the years that she's worked for us and she 100% deserved it.

655

And more than anything, she's not going to break down

656

so I don't have to come get her on the side of the highway, which is good.

657

Man, this thing's nice.

658

It has leather seats, dude.

659

It's got leather seats.

660

I mean, for a Mazda, I think it's pretty much fully loaded.

661

There you go.

662

This is awesome.

663

I can't believe it.

664

Well, I was telling everybody in the video before you got

665

here how much work it is to make basically a television episode once a week.

666

A lot of a lot of calls a lot of ordering a lot of figuring out where things are scheduling

667

and so much stuff that goes into it

668

That nobody ever sees hopefully we're showing

669

that like they can appreciate a little bit

670

because yeah That's why we got 14 people here you help wrangle the whole mess together

671

and make it happen You're part of the reason why that every week people get to see these videos.

672

So happy birthday.

673

She's gonna love that thing I actually don't think it's hit her that it's actually hers.

674

Yeah I didn't think that thing was

675

that bad till I moved it right there And

676

so you can't even tell if it's in gear cuz it just shakes so bad Guys, Kennedy's done a fantastic job for us over the years, and she does a really, really good job for the company,

677

and she 100% deserves something like this.

678

There she goes.

679

She's got a new car.

680

Boom.

681

By the way, if a repo man comes after it, just park it in the garage.

682

Park it in the garage.

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。
