20
Welcome back.
21
So, while I was working on the last video, I realized...
22
You know, I made a lot of videos about my family and what they did to me when I was a kid,
23
but I haven't really made a video about the stupid and annoying things I did to them when I was a kid.
24
I'm gonna make a video about it.
25
I was a stupid and annoying kid.
26
It's my reputation in our family.
27
I drop a lot.
28
I forget a lot.
29
Made mistakes a lot.
30
But most of the stuff I did, I've already forgotten, so I had to do some research.
31
And of course, the only person who has all of the stupid and annoying things I did recorded is my mother.
32
She said I had the funniest childhood out of all her children.
33
but when I asked her what are the stuff I destroyed when I was a kid, she replied, So when I was a kid,
34
every Sunday we would go to a Jollibee for family day, and I always order Chicken Joy.
35
But this time I thought, let's be unpredictable.
36
I'm gonna get Chicken Joy with sweet spaghetti.
37
I was around 7, so I was already a pro with spoon and fork, and I didn't mind using them.
38
But then I saw the poster on the window.
39
The guy was eating the chicken with his bare hands.
40
So of course I thought, well, I didn't know you could do that.
41
For me, it made so much sense.
42
I don't have to use the spoon and fork that were way too flimsy.
43
And I can really get in there and clean that bone up.
44
So I asked my mom, ma, can I use my hands to eat this chicken?
45
Of course, just wash your hands first.
46
So I went to the restroom, washed my hands.
47
Did you use soap?
48
I went back to the restroom, washed my hands again, stood there for a bit longer.
49
Now, can I eat?
50
Yep, just make sure not to drop your chin.
51
I know I was stupid, but I was also a very curious kid, especially during traveling.
52
That's why I was a nightmare to travel with, because I got no chill.
53
My sister on the other hand, she was a sleeper.
54
Me, I like to observe things.
55
I like to ask a lot of questions.
56
Are we there yet?
57
How far are we?
58
Are we there yet?
59
And there was this phase in my life when I thought our city was always on fire.
60
Let me explain.
61
It started when we were on our way home and I experienced heavy traffic for the first time.
62
And of course, it freaked me out
63
because a five-year-old me was trying to make sense of how it's possible
64
that a never-ending road can be filled with cars so close together, barely moving.
65
And what freaked me out the most was it looked like while we were driving into our city,
66
everyone else was trying to get out from our city.
67
And out of all the possible explanation for this to happen, my brain came up with this.
68
Our city is on fire!
69
Why are you still driving?
70
Let's go back with everyone!
71
The city is on fire!
72
Speaking of first times, when we went to the cinema for the first time, I don't really know how it worked.
73
All I knew was the screen was so much bigger than our TV and I could get to watch with other people.
74
Plus popcorn
75
I love popcorn
76
So after the movie we went out And
77
while we were at the hall going out I saw a bunch of people coming in And I thought Oh,
78
this poor people They just missed the movie All that's left are the words going up
79
So I thought to myself As a good citizen I have to do what's right Hey, the movie is over It's over,
80
you're too late, go home It's done, the movie is over You just missed it people.
81
Oh my gosh.
82
Well at least I'm not the kid who was screaming Spider-Man died.
83
I hate that kid.
84
I also had this face when I told stupid lies to other people.
85
We were at the bank and I saw the guard looking at me.
86
And I thought, why is he looking at me?
87
Is he trying to scare me?
88
Is he trying to scare me with his guns?
89
Well, well, well.
90
Hey, we have guns too, you know.
91
so many guns like 10 bigger and longer guns.
92
Of course we didn't.
93
We didn't have guns.
94
We never had guns.
95
But nothing confused me more than action movies because I thought whenever a guy dies,
96
he is really dead in real life.
97
As if he gave his life for the movie.
98
I also did the typical stupid things that most of us did as a kid.
99
You know you did this.
100
Like, I thought I was an airbender.
101
I controlled the wind by whistling and airbender moves.
102
I tried moving stuff by looking at it.
103
I tried making Powerpuff Girls, you know, sugar, spice, and everything nice.
104
Well, that's it.

为什么要通过这个视频练习口语?

这个动画视频不仅有趣,还提供了丰富的口语练习机会。通过观看和模仿视频中的说话者,您可以学会如何用轻松愉快的方式表达自己。这种方法能帮助您在极具娱乐性的环境下提高英语发音和流利度,特别是在谈论个人经历和趣事时。这样的主题可以引导您分享自己的童年故事,从而练习更自然的语言表达和句子结构。

语法与短语分析

视频中的说话者使用了一些有趣的语法结构和表达方式,以下是几个关键的例子:

  • 直白的提问:“我可以用手吃这只鸡吗?”使得对话更加生动和真实。这种提问形式在日常对话中非常常见,适合用于与朋友或家人交流。
  • 时间状语的运用:“当我还是孩子的时候,我总是……”。这种结构可以帮助您描述过去的经历,有助于提高雅思口语练习中的叙述能力。
  • 强调行为:“当然,我要洗手”。通过这种强调,增强了说话的自信,也正是口语练习中一个重要的技巧:自信表达。

常见发音陷阱

在观看视频时,会发现有些单词或短句可能会让非母语者感到困难。例如,“Chicken Joy”的发音可能会因不同的方言而有所不同,特别是“ch”音可能对某些学习者来说比较棘手。此外,在快节奏的对话中,像“just”和“wash”这类单词可能会被快速连读,导致听者难以分辨。通过反复模仿这种对话,您可以提高英语发音,巧妙地避免这些常见的发音陷阱。

总之,练习通过这个视频提升您的提高英语发音和口语流利度,是一项既愉快又有效的方法。建议您尝试shadowspeak(影子演讲)技巧,跟随视频中的对话进行shadow speech(影子说话),帮助您在实际口语交流中变得更加自信与自然。

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。
