1
Hi.
2
I have an appointment with Emily Charlton.
3
Andrea Sachs?
4
Yes?
5
Great.
6
Human resources certainly has an odd sense of humor.
7
Follow me.
8
Okay, so I was Miranda's second assistant, but her first assistant recently got promoted, so now I'm the first.
9
Oh, and you're replacing yourself.
10
Well, I am trying.
11
Miranda sacked the last two girls after only a few weeks.
12
We need to find someone who can survive here.
13
Do you understand?
14
Yeah, of course.
15
Who's Miranda?
16
Oh, my God.
17
I will pretend you did not just ask me that.
18
She's the editor-in-chief of Runway.
19
Not to mention a legend.
20
You work a year for her, and you can get a job at any magazine you want.
21
A million girls would kill for this job.
22
Oh, it sounds like a great opportunity.
23
I'd love to be considered.
24
Andrea, Runway is a fashion magazine, so an interest in fashion is crucial.
25
What makes you think I'm not interested in fashion?
26
Who's that?
27
Nobody.
28
Um, uh, well, Human Resources sent her off about the new assistant job, and I was sort of pre-interviewing her for you,
29
but she's hopeless and totally wrong.
30
Clearly, I'm going to have to do that myself, because the last two you sent me were completely inadequate, so center in.
31
That's all.
32
Right. Who are you?
33
My name is Andy Sachs.
34
I recently graduated from Northwestern University.
35
What are you doing here?
36
Well, I think I could do a good job as your assistant. And, um...
37
Yeah, I came to New York to be a journalist
38
and sent letters out everywhere and finally got a call from Elias Clark and met with Sherry up at Human Resources and...
39
Basically, it's this or Otto Universe.
40
So you don't read runway?
41
Uh, no. And before today, you had never heard of me?
42
No. And you have no style or sense of fashion?
43
Well, um, I think that depends on what you're...
44
No, no. That wasn't a question.
45
Um, I was editor-in-chief of the Daily Northwestern.
46
I also won a national competition for college journalists with my series on the janitor's union, which exposed the exploitation of...
47
Yeah, you know, okay.
48
You're right.
49
I don't fit in here.
50
I am not skinny or glamorous, and I don't know that much about fashion, but I'm smart.
51
I learn fast, and I will work very hard.
52
I've got the exclusive on the Cavalli for Gwyneth.

练习建议
在您进行shadowing练习时，建议您选择每天定时收听《穿普拉达的女王》的这段访谈，努力模仿说话者的速度与语调。起初，可以降低播放速度，这样您可以更轻松地理解每一个单词。确保注意角色的语气变化，例如在提问时的迟疑和坚定。使用 shadowspeaks 技巧时，请试着回放每一句话，先听后说，直到您的发音接近原声为止。
此外，可以尝试记录自己的声音，并与视频中的对话进行对比，從而识别出需要改进的地方。您可以在这个 shadow speech 练习中加入更多的背诵环节，以提高您的自信心和流利度。记住，持续的实践是提高口语能力的关键！
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。
