1
Sometimes it's the little things that infuriate you the most.
2
This happened on a train in Italy.
3
Yeah, the
4
conductor seems to have mysteriously forgotten to check a couple of tickets there.
5
Another form of white privilege we all get to enjoy.
6
Respondents noted a similar thing happening all across Europe.
7
In France, in Finland, in Germany.
8
Have you witnessed this kind of thing where you live?
9
Let me know in the comments.
10
In fact, in the state of Thuringia in Germany, train conductors were told not to check the train tickets of migrants to keep the peace.
11
Keep the peace being a euphemism for not being violently attacked.
12
A German newspaper was contacted by a married couple who had recently travelled on a Sud-Thuringian barn train
13
and noticed that those they assumed to be foreigners were not having their tickets checked, while German commuters were still scrutinised.
14
The train company initially denied it, but then admitted it was their policy that conductors had the discretion to not demand proof of valid tickets,
15
if they consider the situation is at risk of escalation and they feel threatened or intimidated.
16
And for good reason.
17
In a letter to the government, the same train company made clear why they were forced to adopt the policy.
18
State and federal politics repeatedly talk about integration and tolerance towards migrants' refugees.
19
We ask you seriously, how can you expect citizens of this country to be open to the refugee policy being practiced when they have to witness,
20
practically every day and not just on public transport, such violence, brutality and absolute contempt and mockery of our laws and society,
21
including its so-called values?
22
A study out of Italy confirmed that non-European immigrants are more likely to evade fares, primarily because they're more likely not to be asked for proof that they've paid.
23
Fair evasion on the London Underground also seems to be a speciality reserved for certain demographics.
24
This is the moment a suspected migrant in a Gucci jacket pushed straight through tube barriers without paying.
25
Two men believed to be staying at the taxpayer-funded Holiday Inn were seen dodging the fair
26
while everyone else tapped in as normal.
27
In France, asylum seekers can get 50 to 75% off the price of public transportation tickets.
28
That's their reward for illegally entering the country.
29
Your reward for being a law-abiding, tax-paying citizen?
30
Pay up or get off.
31
Still, I guess you can always get a taxi instead, right?
32
Maybe not.

为什么要通过这个视频练习口语?

在学习英语的过程中,口语表达是一个重要的环节。观看像这个视频一样的内容,不仅能够增强你的听力理解,还可以提高你在真实情境中使用英语的能力。通过视频中的对话与情境,学习者可以掌握日常交流中的语言结构与表达方式。此外,视频中涉及到社会现象和文化背景,能够帮助学习者在真实语境中更好地应用所学的语言,这对于雅思口语练习尤为重要。

语法与表达在语境中的分析

视频中使用了几种语言结构和表达,这些对于提高你的英语能力非常有帮助:

  • 情态动词的使用:视频中提到“可以”和“应该”等情态动词,帮助表达可能性和建议。例如:“你能告诉我......”。
  • 过去时和完成时的结合:讲述过去的事件时,使用了过去时与现在完成时。例如:“我注意到那些......”。这种结构可以让你有效地叙述经历。
  • 比较级和最高级的表达:在讨论不同国家和情况时,使用了比较级来强调差异。这能帮助学习者在雅思口语中进行比较。

常见的发音陷阱

在视频中,有一些单词和口音可能会对学习者造成发音上的困难:

  • “conductors” - 这个词的重音在第二个音节,很多学习者可能会发错。
  • “tickets” - 注意这里的发音,尤其是后面的“ts”音,不要吞音。
  • 地方名称(如“Thuringia”)- 这些地名通常发音复杂,可能会导致误读。

练习这些词汇时,可以尝试使用shadow speak方法,通过模仿视频中的发音,来提高你的英语发音水平。

通过观看此类内容,结合提高英语发音的努力,你会发现自己在与他人交流时变得更加自信。而看YouTube学英语,也能让你接触到多种不同的口音与表达方式,丰富你的学习体验。

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。
