Vietnam has come so far in the last 50 years
2
and I hope that in the coming years this is something that can be improved.
3
Xin chào khách bán, mi lạ Brooklyn day.
4
Hi everyone, my name's Brooklyn and today we're gonna talk about culture shock.
5
So when I say culture shock,
6
I just mean all the little things that make it different than my home.
7
It's more like, hmm, that's different.
8
I wouldn't see that in America.
9
I realize that people here do things a certain way because it's worked well over decades.
10
I would say that my first month here,
11
I was in culture shock,
12
but now it's progressed to culture stress.
13
So it's a little better.
14
All right, let's highlight a few things that really stood out to me during that culture shock period.
15
I noticed how Vietnamese people are so creative and ingenuitive.
16
People here will pile things up on a really small motorbike.
17
For example, I once saw a woman,
18
Cole, driving, transporting a gigantic pile of plastic waste on her small motorbike.
19
People in America, if they were in a similar situation,
20
needing to transport something very large and they only had a small vehicle,
21
would probably just give up and say that it's not possible.
22
Similarly, I once saw a teenage boy,
23
probably about 13 years old,
24
riding a tiny bike made for kids on the main road.
25
With traffic zooming around him,
26
he was just cruising without fear.
27
He didn't seem to be scared,
28
but I was quite scared for him.
29
People here will just do what they gotta do,
30
and I think that you guys are much stronger than we are as Americans.
31
The small things sometimes get on my nerves,
32
and at first they rub me the wrong way.
33
For example, one morning I got up on the wrong side of the bed and was just irritated at the world.
34
It wasn't my husband's fault.
35
He hadn't done anything wrong.
36
I was just feeling off that morning.
37
And sometimes the decorations will get on my nerves and irritate me,
38
like my mother-in-law's curtains that I never would have chosen.
39
Or I get frustrated how people will roast dogs on the roadside at a be ahoy shop.
40
Or it makes me sad how people will keep their dogs on a short leash in the hot sun for long hours.
41
I'm not judging.
42
Well, let's say I understand that this is just the way of life for a small group of people here,
43
but it still makes me sad.
44
But I find that these feelings can quickly melt away.
45
That day, as soon as I walked into an air-conditioned coffee shop with my husband,
46
I immediately felt better and it was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.
47
I was able to laugh at the small things in life again,
48
like my husband tripping over a chair and getting a nasty bruise on his knee.
49
That's right, you heard it.
50
My silly husband was in a rush to beat the rain
51
and ended up on the floor with the whole coffee shop watching him.
52
I wasn't a very supportive wife in that moment.
53
I have been amazed how the street vendors here will work together in a community.
54
One Saturday afternoon, my husband,
55
my mother and sister-in-law, and I went on an outing to get plants in the Hadong district.
56
While we were still shopping around for a pot,
57
the pot store owner allowed us to take the not-yet-purchased pot over to test out the size at the plant vendor.
58
After we finally made a decision,
59
the plant store owner took the plant
60
and arranged it in the pot for us better than I ever could have and for free.
61
I was so thankful for these gestures and I was struck by the thoughtfulness of this community.
62
Every day as my husband and I go out,
63
it's almost like I'm in whiplash because an area of the city can change so quickly from affluent to poor.
64
A very nice and fancy house can be right next to
65
or in the middle of a boisterous local market where people are haggling and calling out to get customers.
66
and my American mind just can't make sense of it.
67
In America, we compartmentalize and we use zoning laws to do it.
68
The rich live almost completely separate lives from the poor,
69
almost acting like they don't exist.
70
If you ask me which I'd prefer,
71
I'd have to say American zoning laws,
72
but I do understand that it is important to be in the midst of people in all walks of life.
73
At most street food spots I go to,
74
the servers are young teenagers.
75
They should be in school,
76
but their family needs them to contribute and there are no laws to keep them in school,
77
so they work long hours almost every day.
78
My heart breaks for them.
79
I want to give them the world,
80
but I realize I can't do this for everyone.
81
Vietnam has come so far in the last 50 years,
82
and I hope that in the coming years,
83
this is something that can be improved.
84
Culture shock and culture stress takes a toll on the body.
85
because everything is new to me.
86
It's like warning bells are constantly going off in my head.
87
It's exhausting.
88
I find I need more sleep than I normally would.
89
And I'm realizing that it's important to do things that are restful and rejuvenating for me.
90
Things like reading a book,
91
watching an old TV show,
92
calling friends and family from back home,
93
or spending time reading my Bible.
94
A few years ago when I lived in another foreign country,
95
I wasn't very good at giving myself grace in these things.
96
I was constantly beating myself up that I wasn't meeting my impossible standards I had made for myself.
97
This time around though, I'm doing it differently.
98
I'm going easier on myself.
99
After all, this is my first time living in Vietnam,
100
so I'm not supposed to automatically know how to fully function here.
101
And this also applies to you guys because several of you are going through big changes like studying abroad,
102
moving to a new job,
103
or just going to a new school.
104
This is new, something you're unfamiliar with,
105
but I know you're strong,
106
so I hope you will give yourself grace and persist.
107
These things take time, but in time,
108
you will look back and realize that you are now comfortable in your new phase of life.
109
Okay, that's all for today.
110
Goodbye for now, and I'll see you in the next one.

背景与环境
在这段视频中，讲者Brooklyn分享了她在越南生活的经历，特别是她所感受到的文化冲击。她提到在越南的生活与她在美国的生活有很大的不同。尽管一开始她感到文化震惊，但随着时间的推移，这种感觉逐渐转变为文化压力。Brooklyn通过具体的日常例子，深入探讨了这些文化差异及其对人的影响，尤其是她对人们生活方式和创造力的观察。
日常交流的五个重要短语
- 文化冲击 - “文化冲击”是指当人们接触到与之熟悉的文化截然不同的经历时所感受到的困惑和不适。
- 创造力与独创性 - Brooklyn提到越南人非常有创造力，能够在日常生活中找到独特的解决方案，如用小摩托车运输大型物品。
- 小事烦人的时刻 - 生活中的小细节有时会让人烦恼，尤其是在跨文化背景下。
- 适应生活 - 适应不同的生活方式是移居国外者的一项重要技能。
- 文化差异 - 理解和接受文化差异，是走出文化冲击的重要一步。
一步一步的影子跟读指导
通过对Brooklyn的分享进行英语影子跟读的练习，你不仅能提高英语发音，还能增强对文化差异的理解。以下是一个步骤指南，帮助你有效应对视频中的内容：
- 选择合适的片段：从视频中挑选一小段，大约1-2分钟，确保内容与你的理解水平相符。
- 听取原音：首先不带任何字幕，集中注意力听Brooklyn的口语表达，感受语调和节奏。
- 阅读转录稿：参考转录稿，帮助你理解不熟悉的词汇和短语，同时注意发音。
- 影子跟读：尝试跟随讲者的语音进行影子跟读。在跟读时，注意其发音和语调，这是提高英语口语练习的有效方式。
- 反馈与改进：录下自己的声音，对比讲者的语音，找出差距并加以改进，持续练习直到更自然流畅。
通过这种方法，不仅可以增强英语口语能力，还能更好地理解文化交流的重要性。在日常生活中多加练习，定能帮助你克服语言障碍。
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。
