1
Hi, I'm Taylor.
2
Last time I was in a stadium this size, I was dancing in heels and wearing a glittery leotard.
3
This outfit is much more comfortable.
4
I'm 90% sure the main reason I'm here is because I have a song called 22.
5
And let me just say, I am elated to be here with you today as we celebrate and graduate New York University's Class of 2022.
6
So as a rule, I try not to give anyone unsolicited advice unless they ask for it.
7
I guess I have been officially solicited in this situation to impart whatever wisdom I might have to tell you things that have helped me so far in my life.
8
The first of which is, life can be heavy, especially if you try to carry it all at once.
9
Part of growing up and moving into new chapters of your life is about catch and release.
10
What I mean by that is knowing what things to keep and what things to release.
11
Oftentimes the good things in your life are lighter anyway, so there's more room for them.
12
One toxic relationship can outweigh so many wonderful, simple joys.
13
You get to pick what your life has time and room for.
14
Be discerning.
15
Secondly, learn to live alongside cringe.
16
I'd like to say I'm a big advocate for not hiding your enthusiasm for things.
17
It seems to me that there is a false stigma around eagerness in our culture of unbothered ambivalence.
18
This outlook perpetuates the idea that it's not cool to want it.
19
The people who don't try are fundamentally more chic than people who do.
20
Never be ashamed of trying.
21
The people who wanted it the least were the ones I wanted to date and be friends with in high school.
22
The people who want it the most are the people I now hire to work for my company.
23
I started writing songs when I was 12, and since then, it's been the compass guiding my life, and in turn, my life guided my writing.
24
Everything I do is just an extension of my writing.
25
And this might sound like a very songwriter-centric line of discussion, but in a way, I really do think we are all writers and most of us write in a different voice for different situations.
26
It's just a continuation of the idea that we are so many things all the time.
27
And I know it can be really overwhelming figuring out who to be and when, who you are now and how to act in order to get where you want to go.
28
I have some good news.
29
It's totally up to you.
30
I have some terrifying news.
31
It's totally up to you.
32
My experience has been that my mistakes led to the best things in my life and being embarrassed when you mess up it's part of the human experience.
33
Getting back up, dusting yourself off, and seeing who still wants to hang out with you afterward and laugh about it, that's a gift.
34
The times I was told no or wasn't included.
35
Wasn't chosen, didn't win, didn't make the cut.
36
Looking back, it really feels like those moments were as important, if not more crucial, than the moments I was told yes.
37
I know I sound like a consummate optimist, but I'm really not.
38
I lose perspective all the time.
39
Sometimes and everything just feels completely pointless.
40
I know the pressure of living your life through the lens of perfectionism.
41
And I know that I'm talking to a group of perfectionists because you are here today graduating from NYU.
42
So this might be hard for you to hear.
43
In your life, you will inevitably misspeak, trust the wrong person, underreact, overreact, hurt the people who didn't deserve it, overthink, not think at all, self-sabotage, create a reality where only your experience exists, ruin perfectly good moments for yourself and others deny any wrongdoing not take the steps to make it right feel very guilty let the guilt eat at you hit rock bottom finally address the pain you caused try to do better next time rinse repeat now you leave the structure and framework of school and chart your own path.
44
Every choice you make leads to the next choice, which leads to the next, and I know it's hard to know which path to take.
45
There will be times in life where you need to stand up for yourself.
46
Times when the right thing is actually to back down and apologize.
47
when the right thing is to fight, times when the right thing is to turn and run, times to hold on with all you have, and times to let go with grace.
48
Sometimes the right thing to do is to throw out the old schools of thought in the name of progress and reform.
49
Sometimes the right thing to do is to sit and listen to the wisdom of those who have come before us.
50
How will you know what the right choice is in these crucial moments?
51
You won't.
52
The scary news is you're on your own now.
53
But the cool news is you're on your own now.
54
I leave you with this.
55
We are led by our gut instincts, our intuition, our desires and fears, our scars and our dreams.
56
And you will screw it up sometimes.
57
So will I.
58
And when I do, you will most likely read about it on the internet.
59
Anyway, hard things will happen to us.
60
We will recover.
61
We will learn from it.
62
We will grow more resilient because of it.
63
I hope you know how proud I am to share this day with you.
64
We're doing this together, so let's just keep dancing like we're the class of 22.
65
Thank you.

- pick what your life has time for - 选择你生活中值得珍惜的事物
- never be ashamed of trying - 永远不要害怕尝试
- trust the wrong person - 相信错误的人
- every choice you make leads to the next choice - 每一个选择都引导到下一个选择
这些短语不仅在日常交流中可以使用,在提高英语发音和雅思口语练习中也非常有帮助。学生们可以通过shadowspeak的方式来加强对这些句子的理解与发音,提升口语表达能力。
逐步跟读指南
为了帮助学生在观看泰勒·斯威夫特的演讲时有效提高英语发音,以下是针对这段视频的逐步跟读指南:
- 听懂内容:先完整观看一次视频,尽量理解演讲中的主题和情感。
- 分段跟读:将视频中的内容分成小段,反复收听每一段并大声跟读。在此过程中,注意你的发音和语调。
- 录音对比:用手机录下自己的跟读声音,然后与原视频进行对比,找出差距并加以改正。
- 重复练习:不断重复以上步骤,直到你能够流利地朗读出整段演讲内容。尝试改变语速与音调,使表达更具感染力。
- 融入对话:将所学短语融入到日常对话中,尝试在不同情境下运用这些表达,提升实际交流能力。
若能依照shadow speech的方法进行练习,不仅可以提高英语发音,还能培养更自然的口语表达技巧。这对准备雅思口语的学生尤其重要,帮助他们在考试中取得更好成绩。
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。
