#超棒練聽力素材
#英文就是是要融入日常生活中啊
週末大家過得好嗎?有沒有睡飽飽?
我以前有睡眠的困擾,主要是白天工作用腦過度時,晚上會感覺思緒還在腦袋裡衝來衝去,沒辦法把它們抓住,整個頭冷靜不下來。後來我用Insight Timer,是一個有很多冥想療程的APP,才慢慢懂得控制這些暴衝的思緒,每次邊聽也會邊想說,哇這真的很好練英文聽力耶!(職業病發作哈哈)因為:
1. 這些音檔的聲音都非常清晰
2. 講話非常緩…慢……
3. 其實聽久了就抓得到脈絡,同樣的字會一直重複,頂多是不同的老師會有不同用字,但整體來說內容很接近,就算聽不懂也很好猜,聽久了自然而然就會了
剛開始若怕全英文聽不懂的話,可以找15~20分鐘的療程,因為老師在這20分鐘內只會講最重要的內容(也就是等一下會教的英文部分),若找30分鐘以上的,可能會帶個奇幻旅程的故事(走入青草地或在雲朵中翻滾之類的🤣 ),每個老師說的故事都不一樣可能會讓初學者緊張。
以下是幾個 improve your sleep系列的療程裡,很常出現的脈絡和用字,先有個概念後,再猜一猜應該也可以聽懂七成。
睡前冥想最主要目的就是要讓你讓身體放鬆、腦袋放空,所以都一定會有這些段落:
1. 找個舒服的地方躺好
🧘♀ Let’s begin by coming into a comfortable position lying down.
(找個舒服的地方躺下,我們即將開始。)
position: 位置
🧘♀ Please find comfort in a soft spot. Bring your eyes to a close.
(找個舒服的地方,將你的眼睛閉上。)
comfort: 舒服、舒適
2. 放鬆心情
🧘♀ Gently close your eyes.
(慢慢閉上你的眼睛)
🧘♀ Allow yourself to come into a state of complete stillness.
(讓自己不要動,靜止下來。)
stillness: 靜止不動的狀態
🧘♀ Remind yourself that there’s nowhere else you need to be. Nothing you need to do or think about. (提醒自己跟自己說,現在哪裡都不需要去了,什麼也不需要想了。)
🧘♀ Allow your body to rest a little more deeply, simply letting go.
(讓你的身體再更放鬆,不用管其他的事。)
let something go/let go of something 這用法幾乎每個療程都會出現,冰雪奇緣的主題曲那首 “Let it go~let it go~~”就是要叫Elsa放掉那些包袱、壓力,讓它走吧不要管了的意思。
3. 專注呼吸
🧘♀ Bring your attention to your breathing. Notice the gentle rise and fall of your belly as you breathe in and out. (專注在你的呼吸,感覺吸氣呼氣時,你的肚子微微往上、往下。)
bring your attention to... 把你的注意力帶到...
🧘♀ Just simply experience the air as it flows in and out of your body.
(感受空氣流入你的身體、再流出。)
flow (液體/氣體) 流動
4. 引導各個部位有意識的放鬆:
🧘♀ Guide your awarenee to your face.
(把你的思緒放在臉上。)
awareness: 意識
🧘♀ Notice your jaw. Notice if you’re holding onto any tension or tightness in your jaw. Let that go.
(感受你的下巴,有沒有緊繃、緊張的感覺,有的話放鬆。)
tension: 緊張、焦慮 tightness: 緊繃
🧘♀ Allow your entire mouth to soften.
(讓你的嘴巴都放鬆、變柔軟。)
soften: 使柔軟
🧘♀ Release any tension in your brow.
(把你的額頭徹底的放鬆。)
release: 釋放、鬆開
🧘♀ 其他常被點名要放鬆的部位:
cheeks 臉頰
the crown of your head 頭頂
scalp 頭皮
throat 喉嚨
neck 脖子
elbows 手肘
forearms 前臂
wrists 手腕
the back of your hands 手背
palms手掌
fingers 手指頭
upper back 上背
lower back 下背
hips 屁股
pelvis 骨盆
thigh 大腿
calves 小腿
ankles 腳踝
feet 腳
knees 膝蓋
toes 腳趾
legs 腿
慢慢的一個部位一個部位引導放鬆、呼吸後,讓你的身心靈達到的狀態:
🧘♀ peaceful 平和的
🧘♀ comfortable 舒適的
🧘♀ calm 沈穩安靜的
我最近比較常聽的是一位叫Meg James的Relax Into Deep Sleep,不算是最好的但還是有成功讓我入睡,之前我很愛一位老師的冥想療程,但中間一度太久沒用,我現在竟然找不到那個音檔了,我那時真心覺得那個老師有魔力,他用斬釘截鐵又帶有磁性的聲音說 let go and fall asleep時,我真的就整個睡翻了😂 😂
不過大家也可以自己試試看不同老師的風格,我自己偏愛有小河流水那種大自然背景音樂,帶點英國腔更好,希望你們也找到適合自己的療程,然後就邊冥想邊練英文,讚!🤟
同時也有1部Youtube影片,追蹤數超過3萬的網紅AnJet Cat,也在其Youtube影片中提到,加入惡魔獵人的行列,見證他們的傳奇: https://store.steampowered.com/app/601150/Devil_May_Cry_5/ 昨天破完劇情以後馬上就被這首歌震撼到了, 真不愧是卡普空, 10老招牌被完美地傳承下來了! Legacy有傳承, 遺產, 遺留下來的事物等意...

Tip No. 41: You know those quirky little things you do and think? Collect them in a file or on paper. Even if you’re a storyteller, you can use these as details to add depth and distinction to your jokes.
你了解自己做或想的古怪小事嗎? 把他們記錄在紙上或檔案夾裡。即使你是講故事的人,也可以將這些內容作為細節,以增加笑話的深度和特色。

Tip No. 45: Don’t Hoard Jokes
Don’t worry about “burning” material on a special or album. Hoarding jokes may signal to your brain that you’re out of ideas. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” — Maya Angelou.
不要囤積笑話。不要怕在演出或專場用光自己累積的材料。囤積笑話會對你的大腦發出信號,暗示你已經沒有想法。如同Maya Angelou所說:”你無法耗盡創意。 你使用的越多,你擁有的就越多。”
Gary’s thoughts on Tip No. 45: This attitude has been crucial to an unprecedented streak of creativity over the last two years. I’ve written four hours of material, which is almost as much as I wrote in my first 23 years of comedy. Most important has been my health, this idea may be second.
Gary對此建議的想法: 在過去兩年中,這種態度對我的前所未有的創造力,有著至關重要的影響。我已經寫了四個小時的素材,這幾乎與我前23年的喜劇寫作一樣多。最重要的是我的健康,這個想法則排名第二位。
Tip No. 62: Look for inspiration everywhere. Paintings, music, poetry, rap, novels, nonfiction, short stories, theater, philosophy, etc. can all provide a spark for creativity. Cross-pollinate your work with broad influences and watch your creativity grow.
在各處尋找靈感。繪畫、音樂、詩歌、饒舌、小說、非小說、短篇故事、戲劇、哲學..等,都可以為創造力提供火花。以廣泛的影響力對你的工作進行異花授粉(原文:cross pollination,藉由風或昆蟲從別的花獲得繁衍的花粉),並觀察你的創造力增長。
Tip No. 63: Write it all down while the coffee is still telling you you’re mighty. Reread after you’ve turned back into Dr. Banner (yes he’s a genius, but not as self-confident in that condition). That buzz is so valuable but needs editing.
在咖啡發揮效果告訴你”你超棒”的時期,把所有想法寫下來。當你回復成原本的自我 (原文: Dr. Banner,也就是尚未變身成綠巨人浩克的班納博士,是個缺乏自信的天才)時,重讀一次剛才的寫作。思緒激昂(原文:buzz,也有微醺、很鏘的意思)很珍貴,但需要編輯。

Tip No. 90: After a Good Set, Brainstorm
You just had a great set. Instead of celebrating, use that hour or so after when the synapses are still firing and your confidence is soaring to voice record or write down the ideas that pop up during that especially fertile creative time.
如果你剛完成一場精采的表演,不用太早慶祝,要在大腦突觸仍在觸發、信心爆發、靈感特別豐腴的創作時間裡,把突然出現的想法錄音或寫下,再多花一個小時左右的時間繼續創作吧。
Gary’s thoughts on Tip No. 90: Huge help in making jokes that work longer and coming up with tangents and inspired ideas.
Gary對此建議的想法: 這建議在創作笑話的過程中提供巨大幫助,並提供變化和啟發性的想法。
Tip No. 92: Notice where you do your best thinking. The shower? Running? Listening to music? Not listening to music? Driving? Walking? Make sure to put yourself in the places where you’re doing your best thinking as frequently as possible.
你有注意過你在哪個’場景最能好好思考嗎。沐浴時?跑步時?聽音樂時?不聽音樂時?開車時?走路時?請盡量把自己放在最適合思考的場域。
Tip No. 132: I think you can limit frustration and discouragement by writing just a page on a new premise before trying it out onstage. See if there’s anything there before you spend a day on a new joke. But if you’re truly excited by the new idea, keep going!
我認為你可以在上台試笑話之前,先寫一頁的新前提,這可以限制你的挫敗感和沮喪感。在你花一整天開發新笑話之前,先研究前提是否可挖掘。但是,如果你真心對這個新點子感到興奮,那就放手去做吧!
Tip No. 143: Listen to strangers’ conversations. (I tell myself it’s not impolite if they’re being super-loud.) I got “How Dottie is that?” when a supercilious woman named Jodi bragged “How Jodi is that?” “So Jodi,” her friend replied.
偷聽陌生人的對談(我都告訴自己偷聽並不是沒禮貌的行徑,是他們講話太大聲了)。我有一次聽到一個名叫Jodi的膚淺女人吹噓"How Jodi is that?",她朋友回覆:"So Jodi",我因此想出了我的 “How Dottie is that?” 笑話。
Tip No. 157: Need new joke ideas? Be sensitive. If you’re uncomfortable with that word, use “irritable” (or grow up). A lot of good comedy comes from reaction to injustice or discomfort large and small, which requires being hypersensitive to those feelings.
需要新的笑話創意嗎?保持敏感。如果你對這個詞不滿意,請使用“煩躁”(或成長)。 許多優秀喜劇源自於對不平等或不適的大大小小的反應,產生這些感覺都需要保持敏感。
Tip No. 217: “All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.” — Federico Fellini. Purposefully mine your personal history for your act. Your life is a wellspring. Dig deep.
Federico Fellini說過:“所有藝術都是自傳。珍珠是牡蠣的自傳。”有目的得挖掘你的個人經歷,以作為你的演出。你的生活是靈感之源。請深入挖掘。
Tip No. 241: Many of your favorite writers include the same themes/subjects/objects/interests repeatedly in their work. Don’t be afraid to return again and again to your passions and obsessions to explore and expound.
你最愛的許多作家,都會在他們的作品裡重複探討相同的主題/目標/對象/興趣。不要害怕在你的熱情和沉迷之處,一次又一次得重複探索和闡述。
Tip No. 285: Explore unusual angles in a joke. Example: Examine things from the POV of a child or an Expert. My man Jimmy P and I still laugh over his “Martian response to high school football practice: Why are the hard-heads (players) taking orders from the small soft-heads (coach)?”
在笑話中探索不尋常的觀點。例如:從孩子或專家的視角觀看事物。我和我的兄弟Jimmy P仍會為他的笑話大笑:“火星人對高中足球訓練的反應:為什麼硬頭(球員)會從小型軟頭(教練)那裡得到命令?”
Tip No. 297: One of the miracles of comedy is that you can get redemption for suffering, small and large, by making something funny with it. When you are ready, try to write something funny about your mistakes, setbacks, or even tragedies.
喜劇的奇蹟之一是,藉由使事情變得有趣,你可以從大大小小的苦難中得到救贖。 當你準備就緒時,請嘗試寫一些有關你的錯誤、挫折甚至悲劇的有趣訊息。
Tip No. 298: Skim your life for the unusual events and activities that you can’t believe you were a part of or that people can’t believe you were a part of. Then write about it! Back row No. 93 MULLET:
No. 93後衛MULLET: “瀏覽你一生經歷過的、你或別人不敢相信你參與其中的奇特事件和活動。然後把它寫下來吧!“
Tip No. 310: When it comes to solving the puzzles that are our jokes, draw on every area of knowledge, expertise, and talent. It’s so gratifying to use a fact, a lesson, or a memory from elementary school, high school, or elsewhere to fill in the joke.
在解決我們玩笑的難關時,請利用各個領域的常識、專業知識和才能。用小學、高中或其他地方的事實、課業或回憶來充實笑話,會非常令人滿足。
Tip No. 311: Some of your best ideas will come to you in the shower. There’s science behind why it happens. Get a shower notepad if you have trouble remembering your ideas. Don’t listen to music. Listen to your thoughts. Ruminate on tonight’s set or a new joke.
洗澡時,你可能想到一些最好的點子。這現象的發生原因有科學依據。如果你難以記住自己的想法,請準備淋浴記事本。不要聽音樂。聽你的想法。用今晚的場景或一個新的笑話來反思。
Tip No. 313: Try teaching or informing the audience about something through some of your jokes. We love to learn while being entertained and vice versa. You have knowledge? Put it in your act! Just make sure it’s funny.
試試看通過講笑話來教導或告知聽眾新知識吧。我們喜歡在娛樂的同時學習,反之亦然。你有新知識嗎?把它放在你的演出!只要確保它很有趣就行。
Tip No. 327: Going home for Thanksgiving? Take copious notes! Your family is unique. Being reminded of the dynamics and adding new memories will be great resources for your act. “Family isn’t a word. It’s a sentence.”
逢年過節你會回家和家人團聚嗎?做大量筆記!你的家人是獨一無二的。記住動態場景並添加新的記憶,這會是你表演的寶貴資源。“家庭不是一個詞。 而是一個句子。”
Tip No. 331: There are great stories from our lives that we’re not able to translate into stand-up. Don’t throw them out. Collect those stories in a file for radio and TV and other interview situations.
我們生活中有許多很棒的故事,但我們無法將其轉化為脫口秀。可是不要把它們丟掉。要將這些故事收集在資料夾裡,以後在進行廣播和電視或採訪時可能用的到。
Tip No. 340: Volunteer! Especially if you don’t have a day job. There are so many opportunities to help. You will do good and have something new to write about. In NYC we have New York Cares. One year we decorated an elementary school for Halloween.
如果你沒有正職工作,當志工吧!你會有很多機會能幫助別人。你會做得很好,並有新的事情能寫。在紐約,我們設有紐約關懷中心。今年我們為萬聖節裝飾了一所小學。
Tip No. 358: I have recently started audio recording all notes sessions (for projects), and next time I pitch jokes with a friend I will record that too. It’s very helpful. You will be surprised at what you forgot when you listen back. Ask permission first.
我最近開始錄製所有筆記會話(用於專案)的錄音檔,並且下次我與朋友開玩笑時,我也會錄音。這非常有幫助。當你回聽時,你會驚訝於你忘記了什麼。但錄音前請先徵得許可。
Tip No. 360: Spending holidays with kids? Pay attention to them. Listen to them. Take note and embrace their curiosity and enthusiasm within your writing. (Also avoid the “kids these days” writing. It’s lazy.) Merry Christmas from your second favorite long-haired Jew.
和孩子一起度假嗎?注意觀察他們。聽他們說話。寫下你觀察到的東西並注意,並在寫作中懷抱孩子們的好奇心和熱情。(不要流水帳的寫“現在的小屁孩都如何如何”。這很懶。)你第二喜歡的長髮猶太叔叔在此祝你聖誕快樂(註,原作Gary是猶太人)。

發射這座青春火箭
純屬用信念去充電
撇下老掉了的經驗
奇遇便發現
궁금해 불안해
도대체 다른곳은 어떤건데
생각보다 아름다울까
아님 그걸로 날 속았을까
뜨겁게 태워도 나는 계속해
눈앞에 뭐가 있건 난 돌파해
내가 궁금했던 모든걸 다 알아버려
그림자 보이는 세상을 원해
(好奇 不安)
(到底其他地方是怎麼樣)
(是比想像中漂亮)
(還是給它的表面騙了)
(灼熱地燒到我也繼續前進)
(眼前有任何阻擋我都會突破)
(我要知道所有我好奇的)
(為求一個能看見影子的世界)
高溫燒滾了我 一切
無論宇宙壓力都將我壓低
推翻思想慣性 複製
無論笑匠戲謔我想法失禮
高溫燒滾了我~
In the dark I wanna be your saviour
Light up your life with flames and ember
Escape from this space and time I will
Hunt down the truth till my dream’s fulfilled
Still looking at you girl
Even we’re in different worlds
Can’t get out the zone,
Tired of being alone,
With our feelings unknown,
Buried deep in our bones
Ringa linga Ling ~~

加入惡魔獵人的行列,見證他們的傳奇:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/601150/Devil_May_Cry_5/
昨天破完劇情以後馬上就被這首歌震撼到了, 真不愧是卡普空, 10老招牌被完美地傳承下來了!
Legacy有傳承, 遺產, 遺留下來的事物等意思, 而在惡魔獵人的故事中, 我個人覺得"傳奇" 一詞更能體現這首歌想表達的意境, 畢竟惡魔獵人們所遺留下來的, 正是他們的傳奇故事...
英文原文歌詞:
When those voices deep within
Bring you down to your knees again
Redemption calls onto
All of those who persist
With the strength of the few
Don't come to question
All that you've known
Remember, you are not alone
I will be here
Standing beside you
There is no mountain
Too tall to overcome
We will be as one
You will rise again
This is your legacy
Rise again
This is your legacy
