1
Learn English through stories, with shadowing and conversation.
2
Mary Lennox was a very unhappy and angry little girl.
3
She lived in India with her parents, but they were always busy and never played with her.
4
When Mary was ten years old, her parents sadly died of a terrible illness.
5
Mary had to travel all the way to England to live with her uncle Mr. Craven.
6
Mr. Craven lived in a huge, dark and gloomy house called Mistlethwaite Manor.
7
He was a very sad man because his beautiful wife had died ten years ago.
8
Mary felt lonely in the big house.
9
She didn't know how to dress herself or play because her servants in India did everything for her.
10
But a kind young British servant named Martha started to help her.
11
Martha told Mary to go outside and explore the gardens.
12
Martha also told her a secret.
13
There is a secret garden.
14
When Mrs Craven died, Mr Craven locked the door and buried the key.
15
No one has been inside for ten years.
16
Mary was very curious.
17
She walked around the large walls looking for a door.
18
One day she met an old gardener named Ben Weatherstaff and a friendly little bird with a red chest called a robin.
19
The clever little robin hopped on the ground and showed Mary something shining in the dirt.
20
It was an old rusty key.
21
The next day, the wind blew hard and pushed away some thick green ivy on the wall.
22
Behind the leaves, Mary saw an old wooden door.
23
Her heart beat fast.
24
She put the rusty key into the lock and turned it.
25
The heavy door slowly opened.
26
Mary stepped inside and closed the door behind her.
27
She was finally inside the secret garden.
28
The secret garden looked dead and brown.
29
There were dry branches and tall weeds everywhere.
30
But when Mary looked closer, she saw tiny green plants pushing through the earth.
31
She started pulling out the weeds to give the little plants room to breathe.
32
Working in the fresh air made Mary feel happy and strong for the first time in her life.
33
A few days later, Mary met Martha's brother, Dickon.
34
Dickon was a kind outdoor boy who loved nature and could even talk to animals.
35
Mary trusted Dickon and showed him the secret garden.
36
They kept it a secret and worked together every day to bring the garden back to life.
37
One rainy night in the big dark manor, Mary heard a strange sound.
38
Someone was crying.
39
She took a candle and walked through the long dark corridors.
40
She opened a door and saw a pale thin boy crying in a big bed.
41
It was Colin, her cousin, and Mr Craven's son.
42
Colin was a very spoiled and angry boy.
43
He never left his bed because everyone told him he was sick and would soon die.
44
Mary was not afraid of him.
45
She told him to stop crying and began telling him beautiful stories about the secret garden.
46
Colin was so interested that he wanted to see it.
47
When spring arrived, Dickon and Mary put Colin in a wheelchair and pushed him outside.
48
They took him quietly into the secret garden.
49
The garden was now completely alive.
50
There were pink roses, green leaves and beautiful flowers everywhere.
51
Colin took a deep breath of the fresh, sweet air.
52
The magic is making me strong.
53
I am not going to die.
54
With the help of Mary and Dickon, Colin slowly stood up from his wheelchair.
55
Every day they worked in the garden and Colin grew stronger and healthier.
56
A few months later Mr Craven returned home from a long trip.
57
He went to the garden wall and heard children laughing.
58
Suddenly the door flew open and a healthy running boy bumped right into him.
59
It was Colin!
60
Mr Craven was shocked and cried tears of joy.
61
The secret garden had healed them all.
62
Now let's do some shadowing together.
63
Listen carefully and repeat each sentence naturally with me.
64
She found an old rusty key near the garden wall.
65
She found an old rusty key near the garden wall.
66
Mary opened the secret door and entered the garden.
67
Mary opened the secret door and entered the garden.
68
Mary and Dickon worked together every day.
69
Harry and Dickon worked together every day.
70
Colin felt stronger after spending time in the garden.
71
Colin felt stronger after spending time in the garden.
72
The secret garden brought happiness to everyone.
73
The secret garden brought happiness to everyone.
74
Now, let's listen to Olivia and Harry talk about the story and some of the key words from it.
75
Hello everyone and welcome back!
76
And wow, a massive, massive thank you to Margaret for that absolutely gorgeous narration.
77
Yes, thank you so much, Margaret.
78
You always manage to bring these stories completely to life.
79
And guys, what a classic we have today.
80
The Secret Garden.
81
Oh, it's brilliant, isn't it?
82
I mean, who doesn't love a bit of mystery combined with a really heartwarming ending?
83
It's just a fantastic tale of transformation.
84
Exactly.
85
We start with these two incredibly miserable, angry kids, Mary and Colin, who are just… Well, let's be honest,
86
they're not very likeable at first.
87
Not at all.
88
They're absolute nightmares.
89
But that's the beauty of it.
90
The fresh air, getting their hands dirty in the soil, and building a genuine friendship.
91
It literally heals them.
92
Makes me think I should probably spend a bit more time in the garden instead of playing video games on the sofa.
93
You definitely should, Harry.
94
Your house plants are barely surviving as it is.
95
Hey, I watered them.
96
Last month.
97
Anyway, moving swiftly on.
98
Let's talk a bit about the genius behind this story.
99
The Secret Garden was written by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
100
Yes, and it was published as a book way back in 1911.
101
Can you believe it's over a century old?
102
It's mad, isn't it?
103
And yet it remains one of the most famous and beloved pieces of children's literature in the entire world.
104
It's been adapted into films, TV series, theatre plays, you name it.
105
I think the reason it's so globally famous is its universal theme, the idea that nature and human connection can heal sadness and trauma.
106
It doesn't matter what era you live in, It's something everyone can relate to.
107
Spot on, Liv!
108
Now, I think it's time for our favourite part of the show, the language breakdown.
109
For all of you learning English out there, this text is an absolute goldmine.
110
It really is.
111
Let's start with some of the specific vocabulary our listeners asked about.
112
The first one is a great noun, corridors.
113
Ah, yes.
114
In the story, Margaret read, She walked through the long, dark corridors.
115
A corridor is essentially a long passage in a building from which doors lead into different rooms.
116
Exactly.
117
You might also hear the word hallway, especially in American English.
118
But corridor is very common here in the UK.
119
Think of a school or a hotel.
120
You walk down a corridor to find your room.
121
Right.
122
And the word itself gives a bit of a spooky, echoey feel in this story, doesn't it?
123
Long, dark corridors.
124
Very dramatic.
125
Definitely.
126
Right, our next word is an adjective – spoilt.
127
The text says, Colin was a very spoiled and angry boy.
128
Ooh, a spoilt child.
129
We all know one, don't we?
130
If a child is spoilt, it means they're allowed to do or have absolutely anything they want,
131
and because they never hear the word no, they behave quite badly.
132
Exactly.
133
Because Colin's father was grieving and absent, the servants just gave Colin whatever he wanted to keep him quiet.
134
They basically ruined his character.
135
Oh, and a quick tip for our listeners.
136
In British English, you can also write and say spoilt with a t at the end.
137
Both are perfectly fine.
138
Fun fact, guys!
139
We also use spoilt for food.
140
If you leave a bottle of milk out of the fridge for three days, it becomes spoilt.
141
It goes bad.
142
Just like a child's behaviour goes bad if you never set rules.
143
Great comparison, Harry!
144
Okay, let's look at a phrasal verb now.
145
Bumped into.
146
Near the end of the story, a healthy Colin bumped right into his father.
147
This is a brilliant one.
148
Literally, to bump into someone or something means to physically hit them by accident.
149
Like, if you're texting on your phone while walking down the street and you hit a lamppost.
150
Guilty as charged!
151
But here's the really useful part for our learners.
152
In everyday spoken English, We use bump into metaphorically all the time to mean meeting someone by chance.
153
Yes!
154
For example, I bumped into my old school teacher at the supermarket yesterday.
155
I didn't physically tackle the poor man, I just saw him unexpectedly.
156
Exactly.
157
Such a natural phrase to use.
158
Now, did you catch any other interesting language points in the text, Harry?
159
I did, actually.
160
I want to talk about a specific preposition.
161
Early in the story, it says Mary's parents died of a terrible illness.
162
Oh, good catch.
163
Students often make the mistake of saying died from or died by, but when someone passes away because of a disease or illness,
164
the most natural collocation in English is died of.
165
He died of a heart attack.
166
She died of cancer.
167
Exactly.
168
And before we wrap up, Liv, there's one more pronunciation goldmine in this text.
169
It's the difference between a noun and a verb that confuses almost every learner.
170
Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about.
171
Breath and breathe.
172
Spot on.
173
In the story, Margaret said Mary gave the plants room to breathe.
174
And later, Colin took a deep breath.
175
Right, so B-R-E-A-T-H is the noun – breath.
176
It has a short E sound, like in the word bed, and ends with a soft, quiet TH sound.
177
You take a deep breath.
178
But the verb is breach-E.
179
It has an E at the end.
180
We pronounce it breathe.
181
It has a long e sound, like tree, and a vibrating, buzzing th sound, like in the words the or brother.
182
I breathe the fresh air.
183
Such a crucial difference!
184
Well, I think that wraps up our vocabulary session for today, doesn't it?
185
It does indeed!
186
We hope you enjoyed diving into the secret garden with us.
187
Make sure you practice those words – corridors, spoilt, bumped into, and the difference between breath and breathe.
188
And try using bumped into the next time you see a friend unexpectedly.
189
Thanks for tuning in, everyone.
190
See you in the next episode.
191
Cheers, guys.
192
Bye.

需要注意的发音

说话人用了 14 次缩略和弱读形式，例如 doesn't, they're, didn't。请按听到的简短形式来说。

  • “sh” 和 “zh” 音: collocation /ˌkɑ.ləˈkeɪ.ʃən/, narration /ˌnæɹˈeɪ.ʃən/, preposition /ˌpɹɛpəˈzɪʃən/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, shine /ʃaɪn/

中文母语者容易读错的音：

  • /v/ — 不要读成 /w/，上齿轻触下唇: verb /vɝb/, servant /ˈsɝvənt/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, adjective /ˈæd͡ʒ.ɪk.tɪv/, grieve /ɡɹiːv/
  • 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚，后面不要加元音: bump /bʌmp/, verb /vɝb/, servant /ˈsɝvənt/, wrap /ɹæp/, leaf /lif/
  • /r/ 和 /l/ 的区别: learner /ˈlɜɹnəɹ/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, wheelchair /ˈ(h)wilt͡ʃɛɹ/, phrasal /ˈfɹeɪzəl/, miserable /ˈmɪz(ə)ɹəbəl/

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 breathe, corridor, noun 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。
