正在创建课程...
1
Social science is really the study of society
2
and as social scientists we're trying to understand why society is the way it is, why are there rich people,
3
why there poor people, why have we got inequality, what makes a society flourish?
4
It's a collection of academic disciplines that are orientated to investigating our or experiences of the human world.
5
Social science is the study of people, all the way from their individuals, so their thoughts, feelings and behaviours,
6
to groups in society, to the institutions that govern their behaviour.
7
So government, markets, economies, all these things capture social sciences.
8
It's the science that tries to explore society and understand society.
9
It's kind of a nosy Parker's charter, it's how do we all work?
10
How do we fit together?
11
It encompasses everyday life because you're always interacting with people, so I just think it's a really broad, fascinating thing that kind of everyone will have some kind of innate interest
12
and be able to relate to on a daily basis.
13
Almost all aspects of society fall under the remit of one or other social sciences.
14
Some subjects, if you study them, you're studying really a very narrow set of skills,
15
whereas social science gives you a very broad range of skills which is very attractive to a wide range of employers.
16
The key thing that distinguishes a social science degree is that you get a set of analytical skills.
17
You learn how to approach a problem analytically, you learn some critical thinking skills and these things are marketable.
18
It can take you everywhere you want so you can work for governmental organisations
19
or for private companies or set up your own business.
20
It can take you in a lot of different directions.
21
I'm currently working in market research so that's obviously really related to social science because I'm studying people in a marketing perspective.
22
It really doesn't narrow your range of options
23
and that's one of the very attractive things I think about it
24
because employers from industry to commerce through to charities through to
25
research there are opportunities for you to go into all of those areas.
26
You can do social research for government you can do it for private firms
27
and then you can do kind of any kind of job
28
that just requires good people skills and being able to think analytically
29
and kind of all the things that you get from being a graduate and going to university.

真实场景：探讨社会科学的核心
视频中，讲述者围绕“社会科学是什么”展开对话，从社会现象分析到学科应用，用通俗语言解释其内涵与价值。这样的场景常见于学术讨论、求职面试或日常交流，需要清晰表达观点并结合实例，是练习英语表达逻辑与流畅度的优质素材。
实用表达与搭配
- capture social sciences：涵盖社会科学（例：政府、市场等话题均能“capture social sciences”）
- broad range of skills：广泛的技能（社会科学专业能培养“broad range of skills”）
- analytical skills：分析能力（雇主看重“analytical skills”在问题解决中的作用）
- critical thinking skills：批判性思维能力（“critical thinking skills”是社会科学学位的核心优势）
- marketable：有市场价值的（这些技能在就业中很“marketable”）
影子跟读挑战：提升口语流畅度
打开视频，选择20秒片段（如“Social science is the study...govern their behaviour”），进行“英语影子跟读”练习。先听3遍熟悉节奏，再逐句跟读，注意模仿语调与重音。完成后，用“shadow speak”方式复述整段内容，录音对比原版。若想找更多素材，可搜索“shadowing site”获取类似对话。坚持10分钟，你会发现口语连贯性与语感显著提升。记住，“shadowspeak”的关键是“同步”与“模仿”，多练才能掌握！
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。
