1
I don't know anything about technology so I never speak about tech on this channel.
2
You'll hear some tech related words from me today.
3
This tab is here as a tab by Anika Yasmin.
4
So if you want to at least this way, I've got everything beneath it.
5
I have this little to-do list.
6
I bought a new iPad.
7
So today we are going to be unboxing the ipad air the ipad air 11 inch
8
which has an m4 chip and 256 gigabytes of data
9
or storage of storage and oh god
10
and an apple pencil pro i'm super excited we are going
11
to start with unboxing the ipad itself first thing we have to do is rip off these strips here
12
and now we can open the box itself
13
so I'm just going to lift this oh my god this
14
little tab this here is a tab I'm gonna pull this
15
and it has this like sort of matte paper cover over the top
16
so I'm just going to take that off as well
17
this is it i got the what color is it blue
18
does it have a special name i got the oh whatever
19
i got the blue one it looks quite silver on camera
20
but it's like this super light blue this light blue color it's
21
so beautiful just for reference against my macbook which is silver It's kind of more or less very similar,
22
just slightly more blue.
23
So I have not turned this on or anything.
24
It's so beautiful and it's so thin.
25
Look how thin.
26
Also in this box, we have this like little leaflet here.
27
And underneath that, this is the charger.
28
So I'm going to put this to one side.
29
and then this is the charging cable right here.
30
I bought the Apple Pencil Pro because I'm going to be doing quite a lot of drawing on the iPad.
31
I'm going to rip open this little tab here and then open the box.
32
in terms of a case I bought this one I bought this blue case
33
which has like a one of these folding screens to match the iPad
34
So let's put this on before we do anything else.
35
And now I'm going to swipe and set everything up.
36
English, UK, because I am British. if you didn't know
37
if you couldn't tell I'm uh I'm from the UK right
38
now the iPad is downloading like a software update I have
39
some time to explain like what this video is I have seen on Pinterest people decorate their iPads like
40
so beautiful they have such gorgeous iPads and I want to do that as well.
41
Right now it's it's got the case on.
42
It's this gorgeous blue.
43
I think it's so pretty and it's got this blue case as well.
44
While this updates, it's going to take 10 minutes.
45
I am going to watch one of these videos on YouTube about like how the girls are decorating their iPad.
46
I want to see.
47
I have my iPad now like all set up,
48
everything is is set up so I wanted to give you a little bit of a tour of how I've arranged everything.
49
My lock screen looks like this, it has this kind of cloud background which I found on Pinterest.
50
I also have this big clock on there as well with my calendar over here.
51
I then have on here, I have two pages.
52
The first page I see as being more like my social media page and then the second page,
53
which we will look at more in a minute, so ugly, is more like work.
54
On my main page here, I have the calendar widget up in the top left hand corner
55
so these are widgets these like big these big screens
56
and I tried to make everything very practical very useful
57
because I think lots of people have widgets that are like little games
58
and things like this honestly I I waste so much time already
59
that I do not need a game on my iPad
60
so I haven't got that I've got my main calendar up here which shows kind of my
61
my present day and the exact time and the upcoming days as well
62
and then just beneath it I have this little to-do list widget
63
which I can just tick things off as I do them.
64
Just beneath that I have the notes section, it's still really new like I'm still starting to use my iPad
65
but normally I use notes all the time and I have the weather in the top right corner,
66
a clock and then access to my Notion page over here.
67
Notion is an app and a website where you can kind of create your own pages
68
and keep track of certain things so I use
69
that a lot at university in particular I then only have
70
one decorative decorative decorative decorative decorative I only have one decorative
71
widget which is this one here of this girl reading a book with a cat in the rain.
72
I thought it was cute.
73
And then I have my Google apps just on the bottom.
74
My social media is in here.
75
This is Instagram, YouTube studio which is where you keep track of your channel as a creator.
76
TikTok, I fucking hate TikTok. And YouTube.
77
I've started uploading my videos on TikTok recently because
78
somebody else was like stealing them and posting them
79
so I was like okay now I have to
80
and I just don't like I don't really know what to post over there
81
so if you guys have something in particular
82
that you would like to see from me on TikTok maybe
83
something different let me know next to this I have my my I have a group of apps
84
that are more creative so this is procreate canva which I use to make my thumbnails.
85
I make all of my thumbnails here and some Instagram posts as well
86
and this is GoodNotes which I've been using to read papers and things like this.
87
I've been doing a bit of reading on applied linguistics so just know that I am studying.
88
When you watch these videos there is some there is some kind of thought going into them.
89
I am trying to make these useful to the way that we acquire and learn a language.
90
Hopefully it feels fun to you, but I'm working.
91
And that's basically everything on this front page.
92
I think I like the colour, I really like the colour blue, so I think it looks cute.
93
And then on the next page here,
94
this is like the horrible work kind of admin side of my iPad.
95
Like if page one, this is the creative side, this side is the admin side.
96
On here I have the stocks which I don't understand
97
because I don't invest but they are there because I needed to fill that space.
98
I needed to fill that space.
99
Just above it again is my calendar and then I have some apps here in the middle.
100
So I have Reddit here.
101
I use Reddit to keep track of the different language learning subreddits.
102
I actually enjoy reading them but I like to know what language learners are talking about.
103
I see what's going on.
104
This is a really good way to see how learners are feeling.
105
So I try and keep an eye on that.
106
Down here, this is Substack.
107
I don't have a Substack,
108
but I'm thinking of making a Substack because people keep saying that Substack is the next new big thing with social media,
109
that Substack is going to be like the next biggest social media platform.
110
So I thought I should make one, but as you can see by my to-do list over here, I have not done that yet.
111
So let me know, are you on Substack?
112
Because I was thinking of maybe writing some articles on like language learning
113
or to do with English just to give you guys some reading practice.
114
Let me know if that's interesting to you.
115
Above here I have LinkedIn.
116
I also do not post on LinkedIn but I should post on LinkedIn which is why it's here.
117
And then DJI.
118
This is an app which pairs with my camera with you.
119
I can see my screen and yeah just make sure I'm filming everything properly.
120
This widget here contains my banking information so it has the calculator app and this is my taxing,
121
where I pay taxes and this is my bank account here.
122
To the right I have a timer app
123
so this is like a Pomodoro timer
124
so I can set a timer here for 25 minutes
125
if I want to study and this is from the app called sessions
126
and just below I have a little playlist shortcut to play some lo-fi music
127
which I really like to listen to when I'm working so
128
when I work I usually listen to lo-fi
129
and honestly every other app I just keep in the library because they're ugly
130
so if an app is ugly it's just here in the app library I can swipe to the side
131
and just search for anything in particular that I want
132
and yeah this is my iPad
133
and this is how I have everything laid out I've been
134
using my iPad now for I think it has been one week and honestly
135
I love it I love my iPad it's been really good
136
for me to separate like my phone from my work
137
because with my job now being partly social media it was
138
really easy for me to just sit on my phone
139
and work at night and then it was making me sleep worse it was making me sleep worse
140
at least this way I've got everything separated a little bit more
141
and yeah this is my this is my iPad
142
and I'm super happy with it I actually I really like this flip case it's a flip case
143
because the screen flips open um and it protects the screen as well
144
so I'm happy with the case I'm happy with the iPad I love the Apple Pencil as well
145
and yeah thank you so much for watching I we'll see you in the next one bye

背景與脈絡

在這段影片中,主講者分享了她開箱和設置新iPad的過程。她提到自己對科技不太了解,因此這支影片中將出現一些科技相關的詞彙。主講者介紹了她所購買的iPad Air,包括其顏色、儲存量及配件。這段內容對於不熟悉科技術語的英語學習者來說,提供了一個實用的語境讓他們能夠接觸並學習相關英文語彙。

日常交流五大短語

  • "I bought a new iPad." - 我買了一個新iPad。
  • "This is it." - 就是這個。
  • "Look how thin." - 看看有多薄。
  • "It's downloading like a software update." - 它正在下載軟件更新。
  • "I want to see." - 我想去看看。

這些短語對於日常交流非常有用,尤其是在談論科技產品時。學習並掌握這些短語,可以幫助你在類似的情境中更加自信地使用英語。我們建議你在觀看影片的同時,跟著主講者重複這些短語,進行shadow speech練習。

逐步影子練習指導

對於這段影片的影子練習,你可以按照以下步驟進行:

  1. 初步觀賞: 首先完整觀看一次影片,了解內容大意和主講者的語調。
  2. 選擇片段: 尋找一小段(約1-2分鐘)重點片段,方便進行逐字練習。
  3. 停頓重複: 播放每個短句後按暫停,嘗試複述主講者的話。這就是shadow speak的基本方法。
  4. 模仿發音: 特別注意主講者的語速和發音,盡量模仿她的語調和情感,這將提升你的口語流利度。

透過這樣的shadowing練習,你不僅能提升聽力,也能在日常交流中更加自然地使用所學的英語。看YouTube学英语是一個極佳的學習方法,善用影片中出現的例句,能加強你的言語能力。

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。
