正在创建课程...
1
Tell me about your relationship with Cameron Dennis.
2
Vague.
3
Did you and District Attorney Cameron Dennis work closely together?
4
He was my boss.
5
He supervised all my cases.
6
And were you personally close?
7
Subjective.
8
A judge would allow it.
9
And yet there's not one here.
10
Do you really think by deposing him on the stand, you're going to intimidate him?
11
I think deposing him here will let him know what it will be like if this evidence is brought forward at trial.
12
You're not getting to trial.
13
If your client doesn't perjure himself right now, I won't have to.
14
Were you and Cameron Dennis close?
15
Personally?
16
He was my mentor.
17
It's a hard relationship to define.
18
Moving on, counselor.
19
All right.
20
We don't have to talk about Mr. Dennis.
21
Let's talk about you, Mr. Spector.
22
In two years, you handled 18,362 cases.
23
36 cases a day.
24
That's beyond impressive.
25
Thank you.
26
You took 147 to trial, winning them all.
27
Don't go to trial if you're not gonna win.
28
Why'd you leave?
29
An attorney by the name of Jessica Pearson helped me get through law school, and she felt that I could use trial experience.
30
But I always planned on ending up at her firm and paying her back by earning that firm outrageous settlements.
31
How am I doing?
32
Could do better.
33
You two think that this is a joke?
34
Argumentative.
35
You're damn right it's argumentative.
36
Because he knows that laws have been broken, and he has an obligation to report it.
37
Ms. Leeds...
38
But if this is the way you want to play it, the Attorney General has given me a broad mandate to uncover what went on.
39
And it need not be limited to Mr. Dennis.
40
Were you part of the problem, Mr. Spector?
41
Vague.
42
I'll rephrase.
43
In your capacity as Assistant District Attorney in the county of New York, did you knowingly suppress evidence in violation of the ABA Rules of Conduct,
44
the NDAA standards, and the New York State Bar Rule 8.4, Section C?
45
My client would like to exercise his Fifth Amendment rights at this time.
46
I hear you botched the settlement by negotiating against yourself.
47
I didn't...
48
You let Lewis know the one thing that was most important to our client.
49
Yes, I made a mistake, but Lewis made one too.
50
Well, he didn't mention that.
51
Yes, he knows what our client wants, but now we know the one thing his client wants.
52
She doesn't care about winning, Harvey.
53
She just wants our client to lose.
54
Okay, well, that's good.
55
So what's next?
56
We lose.
57
We give her the tabloid.
58
Well, how does that make our client happy?
59
We let Madison have the paper, and then we take everyone who works there and we start a new one.
60
They all love Kelsey.
61
Nothing but the truth is just a name.
62
We let Madison have it.
63
I've taught you a thing or two.
64
Well, I see that you're up to speed.
65
Well, as am I.
66
Um, I noticed there were some employee issues at the tabloid.
67
You know, contracts about to expire.
68
So I just want to let you guys know that I, uh, went ahead and locked up all the key employees.
69
Just to protect us.
70
Since we're all.. working on this together.
71
Right?
72
Mm-hmm.
73
Good.
74
He knows.
75
He can't.
76
He does.
77
I was careful.
78
I deleted every file from the server.
79
The only time any paper trail left my locked desk is when I faxed it to Kelsey.
80
You faxed it from the large machine
81
that stores all the information you put in it to be printed back later by anyone who has your code?
82
He can't do that.
83
We have a Chinese wall thingy.
84
Oh, God, he's gonna beat us, isn't he?
85
Look, he knows what we're up to, but he couldn't keep his tactics to himself.
86
So we can use that against him.
87
And that's how we'll crush Lewis.
88
Refresher course, Harvey.
89
You and Lewis aren't opponents on this one.
90
You're working together.
91
Like Captain and Tennille?
92
If so, he's Tennille. Who?
93
You need to come with me.
94
What, am I in trouble?
95
Yeah, Harvey.
96
You are.
97
You gonna buy me a drink before you screw me?
98
Sit down, Harvey.
99
I just know what she has to say.
100
You got me trembling in my boots.
101
You're a small fish, and you don't even swim in the pond anymore.
102
But if I have to eat you alive to get to Cameron Dennis, I will.
103
This is my case against him.
104
Falsifying DNA tests, coerced confessions, testimony buried.
105
You have all this, why do you need me? Because this is circumstantial.
106
You have the crimes, but you can't physically tie them to Cameron.
107
He's a dirty public servant, and I think it's why you left.
108
Your record was too good to just walk away.
109
Maybe I got greedy.
110
Harvey.
111
I'm not testifying.
112
You're being stubborn.
113
And this isn't one where you get to make the call.
114
I'm sorry.
115
I've done all I can.
116
It wasn't just his cases he cheated on.
117
Hector Avila, take a look.
118
You think you were really that great?
119
You think your great track record was because of your skill? because of your skill.
120
I got two theories here, Harvey.
121
Either you're wasting your time protecting a man who screwed you from the beginning, or you didn't just know he did this.
122
You participated, in which case I'll have you disbarred.
123
Thank you.

你能学到什么实用口语技巧?

这段视频对话充满了法庭辩论的紧张感,能帮你快速掌握两项关键技能:一是如何用模糊回答避开尖锐问题,比如用“Subjective”(主观的)或“Vague”(模糊的)巧妙回应;二是在高压下清晰表达观点,像“我的当事人将行使第五修正案权利”这样的句式,既专业又有力。这些技巧不仅适用于正式场合,也能让你在日常对话中更从容。

注意这些连读和弱读现象

native speaker 说话时,很多音会自然连读或弱读,比如视频里的“it's a hard relationship”,“it's a”会连读成/itsə/;“don't go to trial”中“don't”弱读为/dəʊnt/。还有“you're not getting to trial”里的“not getting”,连读成/nɒtˈɡetɪŋ/。这些细节能让你的口语更地道,快用“英语影子跟读”法模仿起来吧!

像母语者一样掌控节奏和重音

想要说得像视频里的律师一样有气势,关键在于节奏和重音。比如“36 cases a day. That's beyond impressive.”,重音落在“36”和“beyond impressive”上,节奏先快后慢,突出惊讶感。再比如“Argumentative. You're damn right it's argumentative.”,重音在“damn right”,语速加快,表现出强烈的情绪。试试“shadow speech”训练,跟着视频逐句跟读,注意模仿语气和停顿,很快就能找到感觉。

无论是“shadowspeaks”还是“shadowing site”,核心都是通过模仿提升口语。每天花10分钟跟读这段对话,你会发现自己的发音、节奏和表达能力都在悄悄进步!

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:

结构视频中的用法
现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事have been broken · has given · I've taught
被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么,而不是谁做的is brought · have been broken · be limited
定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物everyone who works · anyone who has · man who screwed

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。
