쉐도잉 연습: Obama Candid Answers To Intern Questions- Full Video - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기

It's good to see you.

So we've heard a lot in the past speaker series that we've had with all the amazing staff about your relentless optimism.

I am.

I'm a relentless optimist.

I was wondering if you could talk a little bit more about that, how you remain optimistic, or maybe you're not, but people still think that you are.

Ah.

Some of this is temperamental.

People just have different temperaments.

I tend to be a pretty happy guy.

I'm pretty sure this is because I was born in Hawaii.

And so I spent most of my early years in really pleasant weather all the time.

Splashing in waves and things. That helped it helped.

As I get older, and certainly in this job,

what helps me a lot is taking the long view on things.

I think so much pessimism and so much stress arises out of looking at things in this very narrow here and now.

But the day-to-day sort of ups and downs and swings, It's like the weather.

I mean, you get an umbrella sometimes, sometimes you take off your jacket.

But if you can keep your eye on the long view, not only does that relieve stress, but it also allows you to make better decisions.

The things that last, the things that are important usually have to do with how did you behave?

How did you treat other people?

Did you work as hard as you could have?

Did you do your best?

The things that you have control over.

When I'm on my death bed, the things I will remember will be,

you know, walking a four-year-old Malia to the park.

I'm not going to remember some headline.

I think that's helpful.

But that's just me.

It's mostly the Hawaii thing.

What kind of legacy would you like to leave in the African American community?

It's hard for me to say what I've meant to the African American community.

I can say what Michelle's meant to the African American community.

Michelle's the bomb.

What concretely I can say is

that the work this administration has done has made a difference in the lives of people who are struggling.

And those folks are disproportionately people of color.

So whether it's the Affordable Care Act and making sure people have health care or it's

expanding Pell Grants or it's programs to deal with low-income communities to help them rebuild and provide better job training,

in each of those areas there are a lot of people

who are better off than they otherwise would have been because of the concrete actions that we took.

There's a second category of issues that have to do with government action and are specifically related to civil rights, voting rights.

We now have an outstanding civil rights division in the Justice Department

that is actively filing suits and winning lawsuits to make sure people have the right to vote, to make sure that discriminatory practices are rooted out.

another category.

I put in that same category the work we've been doing around criminal justice reform

and reshaping how we do commutations and how we are working with law enforcement around best practices for policing.

So that's a whole category of issues.

And then there's There's just the cultural and psychological issues.

It's interesting, I think the impact may be

not just with black kids taken for granted that somebody who looks like them can be president,

but their white peers taken for granted that somebody that doesn't look like them can be president.

All of you are young enough that in some ways it's plausible to you maybe that race relations have gotten worse,

but actually it's a testimony to how much better they've gotten that this shocks you.

Evidence that, you know, there may be racial bias in our criminal justice system, you're hurt.

Whereas 25, 30 years ago, that was is a given.

So sometimes progress involves improvement, but then raising expectations.

Things are a lot better, but now our expectations are a lot higher.

Look, we got a long way to go when it comes to racial issues.

You know, history can go backwards as well as forwards.

But the overall trajectory, I think, is positive.

And the caution I have for this cohort,

because there's probably some self-selection going on.

You guys, if you're interning here with Obama, then you're probably, you have certain, you're more likely to have certain political views.

So I just want to caution all of you all of you to make sure that in wanting to improve race relations,

you don't become so rigid and sensitive in terms of your own views that instead of opening up dialogue,

you sort of harden lines and divisions.

All right.

Guy's turn.

Yes, sir.

Right here.

How do you deal with knowing when to compromise, and how have you learned how to compromise, and how to more or less stick to your guns?

Maybe my rule of thumb is if the issue we're working on, I've got a particular objective,

and the compromise thwarts that objective, then that's a bad compromise.

If the compromise makes things better, but just not as good as I think they need to be,

then my instinct is that's a good compromise.

And probably the best example of this is the debate we had around health care.

Once we get the structure in place, it's like a starter home.

And it would be nice if we had, you know, granite, you know, countertops in the kitchen.

But we can't afford those yet.

There's no porch.

But it beats sleeping outside.

And I think I've been proven right on this because I've got 20 million people who have health insurance who haven't before.

Now, it's far from our ideal,

but every single step in social progress in this country has started with a starter home.

The political process in this country is incremental.

Democracies of our sort require reform as a general rule.

proposition and not revolution.

And that's okay.

You know, betters, there's nothing wrong with better.

Because you hold out for the best,

and that means that whoever was gonna be helped by better doesn't have healthcare that year,

or isn't getting as much help on going to college as they otherwise would have.

All right, well you guys have been great.

I always say this to all of you, So even though it's boilerplate, I'm gonna repeat it.

Don't get bored, don't get cynical.

You guys are the most privileged people at the most prosperous, secure period in human history.

And so, no griping and no moping.

The possibilities of what you can do are enormous.

100

And that doesn't mean, you know, becoming president involves a lot of luck.

101

Becoming, you know, Steve Jobs or, you know, Quentin Tarantino, you know,

102

that requires, there are certain amount of breaks that you get.

103

It's not because you're so much better than everybody else.

104

And being Picasso, it's because you're better than everybody else.

105

But a lot of times it's just, you know, happenstance or things worked out.

106

but being useful and having a satisfying life and making a contribution, that is entirely within your control.

107

Orient yourself towards having an impact and making a difference, and you will, and you'll be happy doing it.

108

All right, what have I got here?

109

You've just been waiting for this.

110

Oh, this is so nice.

111

Look at this, and like glitter on the sides.

112

You got help, didn't you?

113

Your parents helped you.

114

It's just like the science projects.

115

Absolutely.

116

This is so nice.

117

Well, thank you, everybody.

118

Yeah, happy birthday, almost.

119

All right.

120

Almost.

121

Good luck, everybody.

122

You're going to do great.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
