1
Ah, I'm glad we're less than five hours late today.
2
That means that this time I actually have enough time to make my connection and get on the train I need.
3
Oh, is my train late?
4
Attention passengers, the next train to Saarbrücken Hauptbahn has been delayed by an unknown amount of time.
5
We ask for your understanding.
6
My train has been delayed.
7
I knew that would happen.
8
Ah, that's fine.
9
It can't take too long to arrive.
10
In the meantime, I'll get myself a little nice cup of- Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, no, no, no, no, no, please don't leave.
11
No, I need you so much, don't go without me.
12
You've got to be kidding me.
13
I spent 29 years waiting for that train, and I missed it.
14
To be fair, a 29-year late German train isn't actually too bad.
15
I'm impressed.
16
Yeah, I've personally been waiting for 54 quintillion,
17
398 quadrillion, 534- Oh, I can't wait to go on the TGV.
18
I've actually heard that it's the fastest train out there, though I don't actually know how fast it goes.
19
I guess we'll soon find out.
20
Haha!
21
Here's my seat.
22
Oh, hello French person.
23
Ooh, sorry, who are you?
24
Oh, I'm a tourist.
25
Are you ready for supersonic travel?
26
Wait, supersonic travel?
27
Oh, you must be joking.
28
Haha!
29
Right?
30
Right?
31
No way the TGV can actually go so quickly.
32
That's a...
33
AAAAAAAH!
34
Nope.
35
I think I had enough of that.
36
Wait, why am I back here?
37
You cannot escape the TGV.
38
Hang on.
39
AAAAAAAH!
40
No, no, no. You go first.
41
No, no. You can go first.
42
No, you go first, please.
43
No, you go first.
44
You can- Okay, fine.
45
How utterly disrespectful.
46
We were supposed to be discussing on who would go first for approximately five minutes.
47
Geez, some Canadians don't know what being kind actually means.
48
You know what?
49
I don't even want this train anymore with such a disrespectful woman.
50
What on earth is going on here?
51
I mean, I knew Australia was crazy, but I didn't know it was crazy because it had literal giants.
52
Good day mate.
53
No, no it's not a good day.
54
What's wrong?
55
Why is everyone so big?
56
Oh, haha, those are just a type of spider.
57
Exclusive to Australia.
58
Australia.
59
They're what?
60
They're spiders.
61
How on earth are they spiders?
62
And I am a spider too.
63
You're a spider?
64
Yeah, everyone here is just a spider.
65
We're actually very peaceful, don't worry.
66
But make sure to not go anywhere near the walking suitcases.
67
What?
68
Em.
69
The walking suitcases can be a very dangerous species.
70
Am I going insane?
71
You know what?
72
I'll just get onto my train, and everything will be fine.
73
I wonder what he was talking about though, when he mentioned walking suitcases.
74
Hello, namaste.
75
Oh, what the hap- Did the walking suitcase just teleport me?
76
Good day passengers.
77
This is the driver speaking.
78
Can the walking suitcases speak?
79
I just want to inform you
80
that we will not be moving anytime soon as there is a kangaroo playing subway surfers in front of our train.
81
What?
82
Oh, and it appears we have now flipped the right way up.
83
I regret going here so much.
84
Let's just get to the point, eh?
85
Why the hell are you so late?
86
Uh, wha- Ah, the Japanese railway can be so beautiful sometimes.
87
This line especially.
88
It is so slow, yet so pretty.
89
Oh, I think my phone vibrated.
90
Oh no!
91
Attention passengers, I...
92
I apologize for the traumatizing news that I'll have to now share with you but...
93
We are officially...
94
We are officially late.
95
And I think I'm kinda screwed.
96
Well look at who decided to show up.
97
You know, I think the Japanese railway should be ashamed that they only said sorry to us 5 billion times.
98
I know, right?
99
How disrespectful.
100
Oh my god, again?
101
This is like the 5 billionth time.
102
Attention please.
103
We unfortunately had to stop, as you probably have noticed.
104
Nah, really?
105
We have stopped in order to allow a freight train to pass us.
106
But once this freight train has passed us, however, we'll once again be able to move.
107
I apologize for the wait and peace.
108
No, not peace.
109
I don't feel peaceful at all.
110
AHHHHH!
111
I remember when I had freedom.
112
Nostalgia.
113
Hello there, wall.
114
Okay, you know what?
115
I'm getting tired of this.
116
I'm getting tired of being on this stupid railroad train with these stupid railroad seats and these stupid railroad everything.
117
I just want to be free.
118
I require freedom.
119
Is that too much to ask for?
120
Oh my!
121
Has the God of Abraham Lincoln blessed me?
122
No way, did I just see the end of that train?
123
No way.
124
Am I finally going to receive the American dream and freedom that I so desire by leaving this horrendous hell?
125
I need to see it with my eyes.
126
Oh, the God of Abraham Lincoln has indeed blessed me.
127
Let's go.
128
Well, I guess I should get back on the train to freedom.
129
Oh, wait a second.
130
My train has been cancelled.
131
Ah, another perfect day.
132
And it's about to become even more perfect.
133
Let's sit here.
134
I always forget how comfortable these seats are.
135
Imagine being on that German train over there.
136
I feel so bad for them.
137
Oh my lord, the scenery can't look any more beautiful.
138
Ooh, and would you look at that, it's my stop.
139
I love the Swiss railway network so much.
140
I wouldn't marry it if I could.
141
How busy can this station possibly be?
142
I swear there's like a billion people here.
143
Oh, what on earth?
144
Do they have the entire population of India on this train?
145
People are literally sitting on top of the carriages.
146
How am I ever going to fit inside?
147
Well, here goes nothing.
148
Oh my god, I'm hating this already.
149
There's literally someone's foot inside the door.
150
Oh, thank god we're leaving.
151
Welp, I may as well take a look around the train.
152
I swear someone's cooking something, but I can't really see.
153
Oh hang on a second, an available seat.
154
Oh my god, no way did I just find such a valuable treasure.
155
I must be the luckiest person alive.
156
Let's go, I'm finally at my stop.
157
Okay, now I just need to find the exit, and leave this train.
158
Aha!
159
Wait a second.
160
I don't think this is the exit.
161
Okay, I somehow managed to navigate the maze of 10 billion people and escape.
162
So now we have a new objective.
163
And that is to find our way out of this station.
164
I mean, I really must say, I'm really impressed on how dedicated everyone is.
165
Even if this is one of the weirdest abominations I have ever witnessed.
166
Wow, this is such an informational and definitely working departure board.
167
Oh my god, things really can't stop breaking on the UK railway.
168
Well, maybe... and

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。
