正在创建课程...
1
Hello guys, in this lesson we will learn about two reading strategies, skimming and scanning.
2
Skimming is a reading technique that allows you to get a quick overview of a text without reading it word for word.
3
Skimming is like when you go to the mall and go window shopping.
4
You look at glens and gather quick information.
5
Then, when you find something that interests you, you will stop and consider buying it.
6
How do you practice skimming?
7
Number 1.
8
Read the title, subtitles, and subheadings.
9
Number 2.
10
Look at any diagrams, pictures, or illustrations.
11
Then, read the first sentence of each paragraph and look for key information like dates, names, and places.
12
Scanning is a technique you use when you are searching for specific information,
13
like looking up words in the dictionary or the time that a train departs.
14
Scanning is like when you go to the bookstore for something specific, such as buying a novel,
15
so you will go straight to the novel section and buy the one you want.
16
How do you practice scanning?
17
Number one be clear about information you're looking for and focus on the keywords.
18
Number two scan the entire text before you start to read.
19
Start at the top of the page and then move your eyes quickly towards the bottom.
20
Look at the table of contents, index, topic headers, photo captions,
21
etc. If you are looking for a certain date, quickly read the paragraph looking only for numbers.
22
And last, examine graphs, tables, and charts and take note of the information they're giving you.
23
Knowing these reading skills is very useful when you need to find information or make reading comprehension easy.
24
But to master these skills, you must continue to practice.
25
Thank you and till next time.

为什么这个视频是学英语的好材料?

看YouTube学英语是很多人喜欢的方式,这个讲“略读与扫读”的视频就是个好例子。它不仅内容实用,而且语言简单易懂,语速适中,非常适合用来练习“shadow speech”(影子跟读)。视频里用了很多生活中的例子,比如“逛商场橱窗”“书店找小说”,把抽象的阅读技巧讲得很生动,跟着读的时候容易代入,能更快掌握自然的表达节奏。

拆解地道表达,学最自然的说法

视频里有几个句子特别值得细品。比如“Skimming is like when you go to the mall and go window shopping.” 用“like”来打比方,口语里很常用,比“is similar to”更自然。再比如“Scanning is a technique you use when you are searching for specific information.” 这里“you use”后置定语的用法,简洁又地道,避免了复杂的从句。还有“Knowing these reading skills is very useful when you need to find information.” 用“Knowing... is useful”的结构,直接表达“掌握……很有用”,符合英语的表达习惯。这些句子结构简单但实用,跟着练能让你的口语更流畅。

简单有效的影子跟读练习法

想要用好这个视频练“shadowspeak”,可以试试这样的步骤:首先,完整看一遍视频,熟悉内容和语速。然后,逐句播放,每句话听完后暂停,立刻跟着重复,尽量模仿语气和节奏。比如读到“Skimming is like window shopping”时,注意“like”的轻读和“window shopping”的连读。重复3-5遍后,打开录音功能,自己读一遍并录音,再和原视频对比,找出发音或节奏的差异。每天花10-15分钟,坚持一周,你会发现自己的口语流畅度和听力理解都有进步。记住,影子跟读的关键是“即时模仿”,不要害怕出错,多练才能掌握要领。

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
动词 + -ing enjoy、keep、stop… + -ing — 后接 -ing 形式的动词consider buying · practice skimming · practice scanning
现在进行时 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在发生的事are searching · you're looking · are looking
“will” 表将来 will + 动词 — 决定、承诺或预测will learn · will stop · will go
义务:must / have to / need to 表示某事是必要的need to find · must continue

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。
