哈囉，我是Steve Kaufmann。

on the bell for notifications so as you know i  consider input listening and reading to being  

今天

to be the keys to learning a language you have  to get the language into you it has to come from  

我想來談談聽力的技巧

outside you have to get your brain used to a new  language this is best achieved through listening  

聽力技巧，我們如何讓聽力變得更好及如何運用

and reading reading helps you acquire more words  but listening gets your brain used to the language  

透過聽力去學習一門語言

and of course listening comprehension is a  tremendously important skill because if you're  

記得，如果你喜歡這部影片的話，麻煩請訂閱並按下

speaking to someone and we all want to speak  in the language if you can't understand what  

小鈴鐺(以利後續相關訊息通知)

they're saying what the other person is saying  then it's very uncomfortable and you can't have  

所以說，你知道的，我認為不斷的透過聽力與閱讀的方式輸入，是

a very meaningful conversation so how do you  use listening to get better in the language and  

一個關鍵，就學習一門語言來說

what are the tips to get better  at listening first of all

你必須沉浸在這門語言或享受它

it depends on each each person but i cannot  sit down and just listen if i were to sit  

這必須來自外部

and i've tried it so i have whatever lesson i'm  listening to and i sit down in a comfortable chair  

你必須讓你的大腦習慣這門新的語言

and i say i'm going to spend half an hour  listening to this podcast or whatever it  

聽力和閱讀是最好的辦法去達到/取得

might be i'm incapable of doing that my  mind mind wanders so i can't concentrate  

閱讀能幫助你學到更多的字

if i have dedicated study time then i'm going to  read or i'm going to work on my ipad with link  

但聽力才能讓你的大腦去習慣一門語言

so where does the listing  come in listening has the  

當然，聽力的理解是一項非常重要的技巧，因為

tremendous advantage that we can do it wherever  we are i don't have my air pods handy but  

如果當你正跟某人說話時，我們當然都希望用同一種語言溝通，如果你

i have my airpods and i recently bought a new  kind of airpod that sits outside the ear and  

不能了解他們說什麼，或其他人說什麼，接著

they work really well i went jogging yesterday  and i could hear very well and i don't have  

會你會感到非常不愉快(舒服)，而且你也不能有一段有意義的對話。

these things actually plugged into my ear but  i can listen first thing in the morning i get  

所以，你要如何利用聽力去增強語言呢? 且有什麼

up i have a little seven minute exercise routine  i listen i make breakfast i listen if i exercise  

訣竅是可以增強聽力呢?

during the day i listen if i'm in the car i listen  so you've got all this time to listen all right  

首先，這端看個人，但我可以

so then people say well when you're listening do  you always focus all right it is impossible to 100  

不坐下，然後只聽。

focus while listening you have to like so much in  language learning you have to accept imperfection  

假設我在已經很累時坐下，我有一堂不管是什麼樣的課程

so when you speak you're going to make mistakes  when you listen there's going to be lots of areas  

我現在正在聆聽的，接著我會坐在舒服的椅子上，然後說，我將要

you don't understand there are also going to  be moments when you are not focused on what  

花半小時去聽廣播之類的。

you're listening to you lose track you your mind  wanders off somewhere else that's fine as long as  

我無法那麼做。

you come back and so let's say for a period of 30  minutes that i'm in the car listening to something  

我會走神。

maybe i'm only focused on what i'm listening to  for half that time or i don't know what the number  

所以我可以專注，再投入研究時間的時候，接著我會去閱讀，或

is because i don't worry about it but i know it's  not a hundred percent of the time but for whatever  

我會去使用LingQ透過我的iPad。

percentage of the time i'm listening i'm exposing  my brain to the language and i am getting used to  

所以聽力從哪裡來?

the language now one of the things that's very  important is you cannot continue to listen to

聽力有個最大的優勢是在於你可以隨時隨地去做這件事

your target language and not understand anything  or only understand five percent that is very  

我的AirPods並沒有隨時在身邊，但我有，另外我最近買了

inefficient in my experience so if i listen to  something obviously at the early stages in the  

一個新的AirPod，是那種掛在耳朵外的，它們運作的相當好

language i don't understand anything but then i  will read it i will look up the words i'll review  

我昨天去慢跑，聽的很清楚，而且我並沒有

them in link read it again then i'll listen and  i still don't understand even though i understood  

讓這些東西插進耳裡，但我聽得到

kind of when i was reading and looking up words  when i go to listen i don't understand but that  

早上起床第一件事，我都會做一下

doesn't bother me i know that from personal  experience that in time what initially is just  

七分鐘的伸展操

noise for me by a process of reading and listening  and going back and reading again and looking up  

我邊做早餐邊聽

words again and listening again eventually  more and more of this becomes comprehensible  

我聆聽

don't listen to the same lesson over and over  and over again at one sitting in other words  

一天中，我邊做運動邊聽

the brain as i've said many times requires  repetition and novelty so you can listen  

若我在車上，也會聽

to an item a few times then move on to the  next item even if you don't fully understand  

所以你就有這些時間去聽

the first so you have lesson one and you listen  and you listen and you read it then you listen  

好了

again and you understand twenty thirty percent  move on to the next one don't try to you know  

接著大家會說，嗯，如果你在聽時，你總是保持專注的嗎?

master any particular lesson or content item it's  all exposure it's all helping the brain get used  

好

to the language remember you need repetition  and novelty after a while if you're listening  

這是不可能百分之百專注的，當你聽得時候

to the same thing over and over again the  brain is picking up less and less and less  

你必須

so you have to move to the next lesson and to  the next lesson so keep pushing yourself forward  

像是學習那麼多語言時，你必須接受不完美

maintain that balance between repetition and  novelty and there's all kinds of research into  

所以當你說話時，你會犯錯

how the brain learns that sort of block learning  that third fourth fifth time we read something  

當你聽時，將會有一堆你不懂的領域

or we listen to something we are in fact learning  less and less so you have to keep moving forward  

也會有一些時刻，你是不專心

now so don't worry about losing focus  don't worry about what you don't understand  

在你所聽的東西。

keep challenging or rewarding your brain with  new material but do have enough repetition  

你失去那個節奏，你的心飄向別處去

so that you start to notice certain things  that you didn't notice the first time  

那沒關係

and this is the next point about listening i  can listen to a mini story that i've listened to  

只要你回的來

30 40 times before so i know the mini story and  yet i will suddenly notice a structure a verb  

所以，我會說我三十分鐘在車上聽

pattern verb form that i hadn't really noticed  before even though i knew the rule vaguely but  

一些東西，或許我只會專注聽一半時間在我正在聽的

the 31st time that i listened to that i notice it  in a different way so give yourself a chance to  

或我也不知道時間是多少，因為我不在乎，但我知道

notice things when you go back for that additional  pass through the same material so you're again  

不是百分百的時間

you're maintaining that repetition and novelty but  when you're on your in your repetition activity  

但無論有多少比率的時間是我有在聽的，我讓我的大腦沉浸

allow yourself to notice certain things you don't  have to notice everything you can lose focus but  

在語言裡，而我也習慣了這門語言。

there will be times when you notice certain  things in there that will help you in your  

現在，有一件非常重要的事情是，你不能一直

gradual acquisition of the language and remember  that listening comprehension here is the goal  

去聽，ㄜ，你想學的語言且聽不懂任何事，

it's not going to be perfect but it will  gradually improve and the better your listening  

或只懂百分之五

comprehension the better your ability to have  conversations but again give yourself you know  

在我的經驗，哪事非常沒效率的

a variety between repetition repetitious material  and new challenging material combine reading with  

所以假如在初階段，我聽一些東西

listening try to focus in on certain aspects of  pronunciation that you maybe didn't notice before  

我不了解任何事，我會去讀它

be aware that some of the things that  you didn't notice on the first time  

我會去查字

listening or the second or the fifth or the tenth  time you may notice the 20th time you listen  

我會看完它們

so the the process of acquisition of a language is  gradual so if you listen and you don't understand  

再讀一次後，然後我再聽還是不懂，就算我懂了

don't get frustrated if you listen and read  and listen and read and still don't understand  

一些字在我透過閱讀跟查字時，我去聽，我不

don't get frustrated that's normal and at least  in my own case i prefer to be listening and doing  

懂，但那不影響我

something else cleaning up the garage whatever it  might be listening fading out focusing in again  

我知道，從個人經驗來說，剛開始時會有一段時間只有

that works better for me than trying to sit  down and say okay for the next half hour i'm  

枯燥無聊，就我個人而言，讀完聽完，再回去讀

to listen to this all right  the exception of that of course  

一遍，然後再查一次字，再聽一次，最後一遍又

is if you're watching a movie which is a form of  listening but you're watching and listening at  

一遍的做，就能理解。

the same time and it's rewarding because it's fun  to watch a movie and you can see the people you  

別在一段時間重複聽一樣的教材

can almost feel as if you're participating with  this family that's why series you know on netflix  

換言之，我們的腦，我說過很多遍，需要

are so great if it's if it's the same group of  people interacting all the time in the series  

重複和新的東西

and you watch them and you feel you're a part of  them and you're getting that sense of being in  

所以你可以聽一個項目幾次後，跳下一個項目。

that cultural you know uh sphere um all of that  is good but i wouldn't you know i consider the  

就算你第一次不是全盤理解

the sort of video movies tv series that's more  of a reward that's fun you have to develop the  

所以說你的第一課，你聽、聽，然後讀它，接著

ability to be able to listen without seeing what's  going on uh initially sort of repetitious material  

你在聽一次，你會了解20-30%，跳下一個

like the many stories eventually audiobooks where  just hearing the words conjures up meaning for  

別去專精於特定的課程或內容項目。

you so that you're automatically converting you  know words in the target language into meaning  

就只需暴露在那樣的環境

and so as you build up to that level of of  listening comprehension you are preparing yourself  

這全是幫助腦袋席官一門語言

to become fluent in the language so that's my  advice treat listening and listening comprehension  

記住，你必須每過一陣子，重複並保持新鮮感

not only as a primary goal in language learning  but as an important way of helping your brain  

如果你正在一遍又一遍聽一樣的東西，大腦是

become accustomed to the language so i hope  that was helpful thank you for listening
