视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构，并附上视频中的原话：

结构视频中的用法
现在完成进行时 have/has been + -ing — 以前开始、现在仍在继续的动作have you been learning
现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事have you lived · I've lived
现在进行时 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在发生的事You're chatting

中文母语者容易读错的音：

  • 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚，后面不要加元音: trick /ˈtɹɪk/, confused /kənˈfjuːzd/, bonus /ˈbəʊ.nəs/, stretch /stɹɛt͡ʃ/, chat /ˈt͡ʃæt/
  • /æ/ — 嘴张大，不要读成 /e/: calendar /ˈkæl.ən.də/, chat /ˈt͡ʃæt/

如何用这段视频练习

  1. 先完整听一遍视频，不要开口，记下不认识的单词。
  2. 用正常速度逐句跟读，每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
  3. 录下自己的声音并与原声对比，特别注意 trick, confused, bonus 这类单词。

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。
