The Making
2
my way downtown, walking fast,
3
face this path and I'm homebound Stirring blackly hair,
4
just making my way, making my way through the crowd And I need you,
5
and I miss you And now I wonder if I could fall into the sky
6
Do you think time Would pass me by?
7
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you Tonight
8
There's always times like these When I think of you And I wonder if you ever think of me
9
Cause everything's so wrong, I don't belong Living in your precious memory Cause I need you,
10
and I miss you And now I wonder if I could fall Into the sky
11
Do you think time Went past me by now?
12
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I can just see you tonight
13
And I, I, don't wanna let you know I,
14
I, drown in your memory I,
15
I don't wanna look this far I don't Making my way downtown,
16
walking fast Face this path and I'm homebound Staring blankly ahead,
17
just making my way Making a way through the crowd And I still need you
18
And I still miss you And now I wonder If I could fall Into the sky
19
Do you think time would pass us by?
20
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you If I could fall into the sky
21
Do you think time won't pass me by?
22
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles So I can just see you If I can just hold you

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。
