I'm very well, thank you, Neil.
0:31.24 – 0:32.96 (1.7s)
8
How are you?
0:32.96 – 0:33.58 (0.6s)
9
Oh, I'm a little tired.
0:34.08 – 0:35.82 (1.7s)
10
I didn't sleep very well last night.
0:35.82 – 0:38.92 (3.1s)
11
Today's episode is all about sleep.
0:39.78 – 0:43.64 (3.9s)
12
We'll be talking about our sleep habits and also our dreams.
0:43.64 – 0:49.52 (5.9s)
13
Lovely.
0:50.10 – 0:51.02 (0.9s)
14
So, Neil, you said that you didn't sleep well last night, so that's not so lovely.
0:51.02 – 0:57.42 (6.4s)
15
Does that happen very often?
0:57.18 – 0:59.32 (2.1s)
16
It happens all the time, Beth.
0:59.88 – 1:02.10 (2.2s)
17
I don't sleep very well.
1:02.10 – 1:03.98 (1.9s)
18
Oh dear.
1:04.18 – 1:04.82 (0.6s)
19
How many hours do you sleep at night, Neil?
1:04.82 – 1:07.36 (2.5s)
20
I think probably six and a half hours.
1:07.02 – 1:11.46 (4.4s)
21
Really?
1:11.24 – 1:12.02 (0.8s)
22
How about you?
1:12.54 – 1:13.84 (1.3s)
23
Well, if I sleep less than eight hours, then I'm exhausted.
1:14.04 – 1:19.00 (5.0s)
24
I really like to sleep quite a lot.
1:19.00 – 1:21.68 (2.7s)
25
Ah, you are exhausted.
1:22.20 – 1:23.66 (1.5s)
26
What does exhausted mean, Beth?
1:23.66 – 1:25.84 (2.2s)
27
It means that you are really tired.
1:25.70 – 1:28.84 (3.1s)
28
Yes.
1:28.34 – 1:29.94 (1.6s)
29
Like you, after last night because you didn't sleep very well.
1:29.34 – 1:33.30 (4.0s)
30
Are you exhausted?
1:33.30 – 1:34.42 (1.1s)
31
I am, Beth.
1:34.40 – 1:35.28 (0.9s)
32
I am absolutely exhausted.
1:35.28 – 1:38.20 (2.9s)
33
What time do you usually go to bed, Neil?
1:39.88 – 1:42.26 (2.4s)
34
About 11.
1:43.38 – 1:44.68 (1.3s)
35
I go to bed about 11.
1:44.68 – 1:46.36 (1.7s)
36
I usually go earlier, but about ten o'clock.
1:46.60 – 1:49.40 (2.8s)
37
And do you have dreams?
1:49.70 – 1:51.26 (1.6s)
38
Do you dream often?
1:51.26 – 1:52.70 (1.4s)
39
Yeah, I do, but I find it quite hard to remember my dreams.
1:52.98 – 1:58.24 (5.3s)
40
But sometimes I have nightmares and then they are easier to remember, so I might wake up in the middle of the night and feel a bit scared or worried.
1:58.72 – 2:10.88 (12.2s)
41
Can you tell us about a strange dream that you've had?
2:10.88 – 2:14.52 (3.6s)
42
Yeah, I had a weird dream a couple of nights ago.
2:15.06 – 2:19.02 (4.0s)
43
I was at my auntie's house in the kitchen and then suddenly the floor was very wet and there were three robbers that were going to come and open the front door.
2:19.02 – 2:31.78 (12.8s)
44
So I had to run across the wet kitchen and lock the front door.
2:31.78 – 2:36.28 (4.5s)
45
It was a bit scary and weird.
2:36.28 – 2:39.60 (3.3s)
46
Yeah, that sounds like a really scary dream.
2:38.94 – 2:42.58 (3.6s)
47
Yeah, so a scary dream we can call a nightmare.
2:42.88 – 2:46.27 (3.4s)
48
So I had a nightmare, a bad dream the other night and I was in a foreign country, I think somewhere like Italy, a European place, and I couldn't find my family and I was running around the streets trying to find them them and I couldn't find them.
2:47.21 – 3:10.65 (23.4s)
49
But then, after a while of looking around the streets, I saw people in my family and I felt much better.
3:10.65 – 3:21.09 (10.4s)
50
So it sounds like it started as a nightmare but then it kind of went into a dream.
3:21.67 – 3:27.55 (5.9s)
51
Yeah, it was just a normal happy dream by the end.
3:27.83 – 3:30.57 (2.7s)
52
Good.
3:30.65 – 3:31.29 (0.6s)
53
Well, I noticed there that you used the past simple and the past continuous to describe your dream.
3:31.29 – 3:38.67 (7.4s)
54
You said, I was running around, which is the past continuous.
3:38.67 – 3:43.13 (4.5s)
55
And then you said, I found them, which was the past simple.
3:43.13 – 3:46.15 (3.0s)
56
And this is really common language that we use when we're describing things in the past, like dreams.
3:46.15 – 3:52.81 (6.7s)
57
So we've talked about how long we sleep for, and we've talked about dreams and nightmares, but I have a big question for you, Neil.
3:52.81 – 4:02.01 (9.2s)
58
Do you snore?
4:02.01 – 4:04.77 (2.8s)
59
You do!
4:04.77 – 4:07.89 (3.1s)
60
That is snoring.
4:09.19 – 4:10.63 (1.4s)
61
Do I snore?
4:10.63 – 4:11.69 (1.1s)
62
I don't think I do, but my wife says that I do.
4:11.69 – 4:18.33 (6.6s)
63
So you do snore?
4:17.53 – 4:19.65 (2.1s)
64
No, I've never heard myself snore.
4:19.65 – 4:22.37 (2.7s)
65
Let's have a look at the language we learned in this conversation.
4:28.65 – 4:33.25 (4.6s)
66
We learnt nightmare, which is a bad or scary dream.
4:33.77 – 4:38.25 (4.5s)
67
We heard exhausted, very tired.
4:38.17 – 4:42.37 (4.2s)
68
And we learnt a way to talk about dreams using the past simple and the past continuous.
4:43.69 – 4:49.83 (6.1s)
69
For example, you dreamt that you were running around trying to find your family and then you found them.
4:50.43 – 4:57.63 (7.2s)
70
I did.
4:59.45 – 4:59.75 (0.3s)
71
Thanks for listening to Real Easy English.

本课简介
在本课中，我们将围绕“睡眠”这一主题进行讨论。通过与“Real Easy English”的对话，学习者将练习如何用简单的英语表达自己的睡眠习惯和梦境体验。这将帮助您熟悉与睡眠相关的词汇与表达，同时提升您的口语能力，是提高英语发音和雅思口语练习的极佳机会。
关键词汇与短语
- 疲惫 (exhausted) - 意思是在经过长时间的活动后感觉非常疲倦。
- 梦 (dream) - 在睡眠中经历的想象和意识状态。
- 噩梦 (nightmare) - 一种令人害怕或焦虑的梦，常让人惊醒。
- 入睡 (go to bed) - 指准备就寝，通常是晚上休息的时候。
- 记忆 (remember) - 回忆或保持在脑海中的信息。
- 异国 (foreign country) - 指与自己家乡不同的国家，通常有不同的文化和语言。
练习技巧
对于这段对话的练习，建议采用英语影子跟读的方式。首先，您可以慢慢地听完整段对话，注意发音和语调。接下来，尝试在不暂停的情况下重复或模仿说话者的声音，这种shadow speech技巧有助于您提高语速和流利度。此外，由于对话的语速相对较慢，特别适合进行shadowing练习。您可以在熟悉词汇和短语后，逐渐加快跟读的速度。
请记住，进行这种练习时，专注于每个单词的发音，保持流畅的语调，这对提高您的英语发音质量至关重要。定期进行此类练习，尤其是结合雅思口语练习，将有助于您在实际对话中更加自信。
最后，如果您遇到困难，可以尝试将对话段落分成小部分，逐句练习，这样会更容易掌握每个表达的用法和语感。通过这种方式，您将能更有效地应用您所学的内容，并在与他人交流时更加自然。
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。
如何在ShadowingEnglish上有效练习
- 选择您的视频： 挑选一段语音清晰、自然的YouTube视频。TED演讲，BBC新闻，电影片段，播客或雅思口语范例都很好。将URL粘贴到搜索栏中。从较短的视频（短于5分钟）以及您真正感兴趣的内容开始——兴趣是最重要的导师。
- 先听，理解上下文： 第一次听的时候，将速度保持在1倍速并仅仅倾听。还不要尝试重复。专注于理解其含义，收集新词汇，并注意讲话人如何强调单词，连读声音及使用停顿。
- 设置跟读模式：
- 等待模式：选择
+3s或+5s——在每句话播放完毕后，视频会自动暂停以便您有时间大声重复它。如果您想完全控制并在每次重复后由您自己点击下一步，请选择手动。 - 字幕同步：YouTube字幕有时会在音频前或后略微出现。使用
±100ms使它们完美对齐以助您准确跟读。
- 等待模式：选择
- 大声跟读（核心练习）： 这是真正发生改变的一步。当一个句子播放出来立刻——或在暂停期间——大声、清晰且自信地重复出来。千万不要只是张张嘴：要模仿说话者的准确节奏、重音、音高和连读。力求听上去就像说话者的影子，而不仅是逐字背诵。使用重复功能多次练习同一个句子，直到感觉自然为止。
- 提高难度： 当练习段落变得相对舒适后，就去挑战自我。将速度增加至 <code>1.25x</code> 或甚至 <code>1.5x</code> 以训练高速语言反射。或者将等待模式调整为 <code>关闭</code> 以进行连续跟读——这是最进阶同样收益最大的模式。持续的每日15–30分钟的练习将可以在几周内产生可见的效果。
