1
There are fears
2
that the war in Iran could escalate after Iranian-backed Houthi rebels
3
in Yemen said they have launched a second wave of missiles and drones against Israel.
4
Well, the Houthis have in the past attacked shipping in the Red Sea,
5
and there are fears they could target the Bab al-Mandab Strait,
6
a vital global shipping route.
7
Elsewhere, there have been attacks across the region,
8
including one on a US military base in Saudi Arabia,
9
injuring 12 American troops.
10
This report from our World News correspondent, Joe Inwood.
11
It has become a familiar sight.
12
Iranian Red Crescent rescue teams searching through the remains of shattered buildings.
13
The US and Israel have launched thousands of strikes right across the country.
14
They say they have all but destroyed Iran's military capabilities.
15
But still, the regime fires back.
16
Today they released this footage of what they said was their 85th wave of missiles.
17
And this was Kuwait airport,
18
after an apparent drone strike.
19
Dragging US Gulf allies into the conflict has been a key part of Iran's strategy.
20
And today another front seems to have opened.
21
Vast crowds took to the street in Yemen after the Houthis,
22
allies of Iran, launched missiles at Israel.
23
We are preparing for a multi-front war, including with the Houthis.
24
We know how to defend Israeli civilians and,
25
as I said before, we act, we don't talk.
26
Anyone who threatens Israeli civilians, we will strike them and we are now going to attack the nuclear war.
27
But there is a bigger concern that the economic war deepens.
28
Now, if the Houthis decide to start attacking shipping in the Red Sea,
29
it could have far-reaching economic consequences.
30
In order to avoid the Strait of Hormuz,
31
Saudi Arabia is currently diverting around 4 million barrels of oil
32
a day through a pipeline to Yanbu on the Red Sea coast.
33
Now that means the oil bound for the Asian market can then sail south in relative safety past Yemen.
34
But that's not always been a safe route.
35
For nearly two years the Houthis attacked international shipping, damaging around 30 vessels.
36
Now they say they could target commercial shipping again,
37
making the Bab al-Mandab Strait a key flashpoint,
38
blocking routes for for Saudi oil in both directions,
39
with huge implications for the global economy.
40
This is what democracy looks like.
41
This war is increasingly divisive in the US.
42
Today, huge protests took place.
43
But overnight, Donald Trump insisted it was a fight that needed to be had.
44
It was blackmail period.
45
Under my leadership, America is ending the threat posed by this radical regime.
46
There are diplomatic efforts to end the war.
47
Pakistan has said it will host talks with Egypt and Turkey,
48
a sign of just how widely the shockwaves are spreading.
49
But both sides seem to be talking at cross purposes.
50
The U.S has said Iran is defeated,
51
essentially calling for their surrender,
52
while the message coming from Tehran is equally uncompromising.
53
Trump and the commanders of the U.S.
54
Army must have clearly understood that the region will turn into a graveyard for American soldiers,
55
and they will have no option but to surrender.
56
All the while, the human cost of the war continues to grow.
57
The Iranian Red Crescent released this footage following what they said was an Israeli strike.
58
The US has said this could all be over in weeks.
59
How that will happen is far from clear.
60
Joe Inwood, BBC News.
61
Well, live now to our correspondent James Waterhouse,
62
who's in Jerusalem for us now.
63
And James, to what extent do you think the Houthi attack on Israel is an escalation of the war in Iran?
64
Well, Ben, the footprint of this already vast war is widening further.
65
Now, it was always likely that should Iran have asked the Houthis for help,
66
they would have said yes because of their longstanding relationship,
67
because of the military and financial aid the Houthis had received from Iran.
68
We have had two reported missile strikes or attempted missile strikes today.
69
Israel's air defenses aren't usually too troubled by missiles launched from the south.
70
But of course, it's also having to defend against salvo after salvo of Iranian missiles,
71
which make their way over.
72
And today has been no exception.
73
And so when you think about America's claim or wish that this war will be over in weeks rather than months,
74
when you consider Israel's own widening offensive in southern Lebanon,
75
where 1,100 civilians have been killed and counting,
76
there's very little sign here in Israel that the war is winding down in any way.
77
All right, James, thank you very much indeed.
78
Three Lebanese journalists have been killed in a targeted Israeli airstrike on their press vehicle in southern Lebanon.
79
Among those killed was a well-known correspondent for Almanar TV,
80
a station affiliated to the Iranian-backed Lebanese armed group Hezbollah.
81
The Israeli army claimed he was a Hezbollah member who had been exposing Israeli military positions without providing evidence.
82
Well, also today,
83
a funeral was held for a boy who was among five
84
people killed in two airstrikes in a town in southern Lebanon yesterday.
85
And from there, our Middle East correspondent,
86
Hugo Boshega, sent us this report.
87
This war is destroying not only Lebanon's present,
88
it is also taking away part of its future.
89
This was the funeral today for Jawad Yunis,
90
killed in an Israeli airstrike as he played football with his cousins.
91
He was 11.
92
His mother was devastated.
93
My son is gentle and pure.
94
He loved the idea of martyrdom.
95
And when he grew up,
96
he wanted to be with the resistance.
97
He wanted to resist the enemy Israel, who killed him.
98
Israeli bombs have pounded towns and villages across Lebanon.
99
In the south, Israeli troops are pushing ahead with their invasion.
100
Israel says it is targeting Hezbollah,
101
which has continued to launch attacks against Israel.
102
But here, often, it's civilians who were killed.
103
This is the location that was hit
104
and the scale of the destruction gives us an idea of the power of the attack.
105
This house has been completely destroyed.
106
There's a lot of damage in this building on this side.
107
And people here say that this attack happened at around 1 o'clock in the afternoon and that it came with no warning.
108
And this is the fear that many have across this country of not knowing
109
when and where the next Israeli attack will hit.
110
The Israeli military is yet to explain why it attacked this building.
111
Lebanese officials say more than 120 children have been killed by Israeli attacks in this war,
112
with hundreds more wounded.
113
And then my back.
114
Jawad's aunt, Zainab, survived the attack.
115
She has a broken spine and fractured leg,
116
but doctors believe she will fully recover.
117
Had you ever imagined that something like this could happen to you?
118
No, at all.
119
There's nothing for Israel to bomb us,
120
because I'm sitting with my husband and with my children.
121
We're playing football with me and my cousins,
122
and then Israel will do this thing.
123
Israel and Hezbollah are vowing to keep on fighting.
124
And while innocent children will be lost to a war,
125
they're too young to understand.

为什么要通过这个视频练习口语？
通过观看此视频并进行练习，您可以在实际情境中提升英语口语能力。视频中涉及的内容不仅包含重要的时事信息，还展现了真实的对话环境，这对学习者至关重要。练习口语时，您可以尝试使用影子跟读的技巧，通过跟随视频语音来提高语速和流利度。此外，该视频中复杂的国际关系及冲突背景，有助于您更好地理解如何在不同语境中使用英语表达更深层次的观点。
语法与表达在情境中的运用
在视频中，有几个重要的结构和表达方式值得学习：
- 被动语态：如“美国和以色列发起了数千次攻击”，这个结构强调了动作的接受者，而非执行者。
- 条件句：在谈到“如果胡塞武装决定攻击红海的商业船只”的句子中，使用了虚拟语气，适合表达假设或不确定的情况。
- 直接引语：许多情况下，谈话者使用了直接引语来加强信息的传递，比如“我们知道如何保护以色列平民。”这种表达方式使得语言更具生动性和真实性。
运用这些结构，您可以更好地进行英语口语练习，使您的交流更加清晰和准确。
常见的发音陷阱
在视频中，有一些词汇和口音可能会对学习者造成发音挑战：
- “Houthi”：这个词的发音对于非母语者来说可能有些困难，可以反复模仿视频中的发音。
- “missiles”：许多学习者在这个词中经常混淆元音的发音，注重两个重音音节的清晰发音。
- “civilian”：这个单词中的重音位置是发音的关键。适当的语调和节奏可以让您说得更自然。
通过不断的英语影子跟读练习，您可以克服这些发音障碍，使您的口语表达更加流畅。
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。
