跟读练习: Virat Kohli: Visualizing successes - 通过视频学习英语口语

In what ways would you say you're an aggressive batsman?

Well, I've always liked to take control of the situation.

I've always been a kind of a player who would walk into a situation

and turn the situation towards in the favor of my team.

And that's why I think I'm an aggressive batsman, because a lot of people, they would go in and they would be wary of the situation, whether they want to attack or not.

My game is totally counter-attack.

My game is, if I look at spaces in the field,

I think of the fact that I can score runs here and I don't feel like I might get out.

So, you have two ways of approaching your skill.

Either you give in to the opposition's plans and their mind games, or you believe in yourself and say, everyone's looking at this as a pressure situation, but I look at it as an opportunity.

So I go in with that mindset, and 8 out of 10 times, it happens in a way that I'm able to counterattack.

And explain the role that angles play.

Angles play a huge role in terms of batsmanship as well.

Sometimes you have to...

So basically what we have in cricket is we have the batting crease,

which is a line, which traditionally you stand either side of the line and that's the normal setup of a batsman.

But sometimes when, so if you play in England, the ball swings, it moves around.

You know, when the bowler bowls the ball.

So in baseball, you don't have the ball moving around so much.

But in cricket, you have a lot of variation with the ball where the ball has a seam stitch to it.

So when it pitches on the surface, it can go either way.

It swings in the air because of the conditions, because of the shine on the ball.

So there's so many variables that you need to counter

and batting is about a split second of a decision

if I make the wrong decision I sit outside

and I clap all day So the precision of

that split second has to be so good

and you have to keep countering it

and keep being in the right Mindset every ball of the game every second of the game.

It's starting at the end of the day as well mentally

But to counter those kind of things

if you stand in your normal sort of traditional position you have more chances of getting out.

So sometimes you cut angles in a way that you stand in a different place to make the bowler do something different.

So those are the things that work really well in your favor in cricket.

How does visualization help with that?

It is everything for me.

How so?

So if you're going to play an overseas tour, say to Australia or England or something like that, I literally sat down two,

three months before, and I've made a decision in my head that I'm going to take their best bowler on.

And when I train in the gym, when I'm practicing, regularly there are visuals running in my head,

me dominating that bowler.

When I train, I have music on, I'm putting myself in a situation where that guy is bringing the heat on to me, and I'm countering that, and you know, that becomes such a reality in your head.

And invariably, when I went into that situation, I ended up dominating that guy in their own home conditions.

And what specifically are you seeing when you're visualizing it?

Um, I'm actually seeing smashing that bowler all over the field.

So I actually feel that emotion in my heart, and I can feel that this is going to happen.

And you tune your head or you tune your mind in a way

that it's so convincing in your mind that when you're in that situation, your body just takes over because it's already registered in your mind.

And when that happens, you feel like, wow, man, this is so powerful.

Because if something looks difficult and if you don't convince yourself to go out there and achieve the opposite, you're never going to be able to do it.

You can't just land in a place and say, I'll see what happens.

that way your chances of succeeding become very, very low.

Your first year in the IPL, you're playing with some of the best players in the world.

Your coach Raj Kumar said that your shortcoming was overconfidence.

How so?

It was.

I lost my way.

I drifted quite a bit, and eventually I had the worst season I could have, and I had discipline issues,

and I actually lost my way pretty badly.

You know, I just saw this whole frenzy and this attention on me

and suddenly playing with the biggest stars in the world and they make you feel welcome.

They make you feel friendly and you feel like I'm the man, you know, I'm everything and I can do anything I want.

So, yeah, I did lose my way and again, he pulled me up.

He called me, he's like, you need to get your act right.

Is that what he said specifically?

Yeah, he said, I've heard things

and you need to be careful you need to stay away from all this stuff that's been happening.

And what was the stuff?

Just being distracted, just partying, just not that focused, not focusing on my training, my diet, nothing.

My graphs just kept going down.

And I didn't realize it.

I was like, I got so carried away just wanting to be around these people and doing, you know, anything just to be socially accepted and,

you know, just to be part of groups and wanting to hang out with cool people and stuff like that.

And after that, I realized that I was heading into a totally wrong direction.

In what ways do you think you struggled at times handling hecklers?

Well, I've had many instances where I lost my cool with people who would sort of poke me

or urge me to lose my temper.

What would get to you the most?

I think the stuff that would get to me the most was bad sledging.

Like if someone, so sledging, I don't know if you know about sledging.

Sledging is basically when you're playing on the field

and people say nasty things to you just so you can get out and make you lose your focus.

So when those kind of nasty things happen, I just lost my cool completely.

And people would get personal as well.

A lot of the time they would get personal.

And these are other players?

Other players from other countries.

And I would totally not.

Like what would they say?

They would say stuff which was, oh, this is the last time he's going to ever play for his country and you know, this is it and you're never going to see his face again.

And those kind of nasty things.

And he felt like, yes, you want to get someone out, but you can't snatch someone's life away from them by saying stuff like that.

If a young guy comes in and he actually believes in it, you could destroy his whole life.

I can understand people lose their temper and they fight against each other, they swear at each other.

But you don't wish that someone never comes back to play the sport that they've loved playing since they were kids.

So those kind of things would rile me up and then the crowd plays a big role as well.

The crowd riled me up as well a few times.

And one time I flicked a finger.

I flicked the middle finger at the crowd as well.

100

And it was so funny in Australia.

101

I had had enough of the crowd coming at me every time.

102

And I would hear stuff which was so nasty.

103

And I was like, man, this is so bad.

104

I never thought this was going to be the case, playing cricket at the highest level.

105

So I flicked the middle finger.

106

And then next day I come in, the match referee, the guy who's in charge of the code of conduct.

107

He gave you a pass.

108

He called me into the office and he said, so what happened yesterday?

109

And I said, nothing.

110

What happened?

111

He said, what happened at the boundary line yesterday?

112

I said, nothing happened.

113

It was all good.

114

The crowd was saying some things and I just went on with it.

115

I didn't say anything.

116

And then, boom, he drops this newspaper in front of me.

117

I have a 14, 15 inch long picture of myself on the front page of

118

an Australian newspaper with my middle finger right up there and it was in your blood.

119

And immediately I said, I'm sorry.

120

I immediately accepted.

121

I said, I'm so sorry.

122

Please don't ban me.

123

I will never do this again.

124

And so he took half of my match piece away, and then he warned me, and then he was like, you should be careful.

125

You're young.

126

You don't want to spoil your career.

127

But I kept learning with my mistakes.

128

Why did an Australian newspaper call you the Donald Trump of world sport?

129

Yeah, a lot of nasty things happened back in the day.

130

I think both sides were quite naive.

131

I was quite naive to lose my temper.

132

They were quite naive to form a judgment so quickly.

133

And we always think that our side of the story is right.

134

So that's exactly what happened in that situation.

135

They really took it to the next level.

136

And I was like, well, it is what it is.

137

And I've called it upon myself.

138

Why did your mom give you a locket and gold chain to help with your temper?

139

Well, it's something.

140

It's a sea pearl stone, which is supposed to be calming.

141

People in India believe in wearing a lot of stones.

142

It has a scientific meaning to it as well

143

because of the elements of the stone and the magnetic field around us

144

and how it impacts certain characteristics in us as well.

145

So she gave me one saying, this is going to help you with your temper.

146

I don't know to what extent it helped me, to be honest.

147

But yeah, the effort was certainly there, but I kept losing my temper.

148

Why do you think you've since had so much success in calming yourself down?

149

Well again you learn.

150

After a while you feel like you really don't have any competition.

151

It's just all made up in your own head and at the end of the day you're just competing with yourself.

152

So my main focus now is to not disappoint myself first as a person

153

and then impact the people immediately who are connected to me immediately.

154

So they see if I have a downfall and things will become negative around me.

155

So I become more aware of my mistakes.

156

I become more aware of if I mess up at any time, I need to be the first one to correct it rather than someone having to come and say,

157

you're going down the wrong direction.

158

So I think acceptance and awareness has certainly changed my life.

本节课学习要点

通过观看板球运动员维拉特·科利的访谈视频，你将练习听懂自然的英语口语表达，学习如何用英语描述运动策略与心理技巧。同时，还能借助视频内容进行英语口语练习和shadow speech训练，提升发音与语感。无论是备考雅思口语，还是日常交流，这种结合真实场景的学习方式都很有效。

核心词汇与短语

counter-attack：反击（文中指在比赛中主动出击）
split second：瞬间，一刹那（形容决策的紧迫性）
visualization：可视化，想象训练（心理准备技巧）
dominate：支配，压制（文中指在比赛中占据优势）
mindset：心态，思维模式（影响表现的关键因素）

练习技巧

视频中科利的语速中等，语气坚定且富有感染力，非常适合shadow speech训练。建议先逐句跟读，注意模仿他的重音和停顿，比如在“8 out of 10 times”时的自然节奏。想要提高英语发音，可以重点练习“seam stitch”“swings in the air”等短语的连读。此外，尝试用自己的话复述“可视化训练”的方法，这对雅思口语练习中的“描述经历”类话题很有帮助。看视频学英语时，不妨边看边记录关键观点，再对照原文检查理解，逐步提升听力与口语的同步能力。

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构，并附上视频中的原话：

结构	视频中的用法
现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事	I've always liked · I've always been · I've made
定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物	people who would · stuff which was · stone, which is
被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么，而不是谁做的	being distracted · are connected

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。
