Lecture 3 模拟演练在线视频

Hello everybody

welcome back

I’m your lecturer Catherine

In last two lectures

we introduced the skills of active listening

and logical analysis

In today’s lecture

we’ll apply theories to practice

We have Jeff here to give us demos

Welcome Jeff

Hi nice to meet you

I’m a senior student and also a learner in interpreting

It’s a great pleasure to learn interpreting with you

Today

we have two tasks

related to the previous two lectures

You’ll be given two audio materials

After listening to both materials

you’re supposed to do retelling

for one of them and logical analysis for the other

That sounds quite challenging

but I believe it’s a good way to

enhance my skills

You’re right

Now

let’s get started

Are you ready？

Yes

I’m ready

Ok

please listen to the first audio

and try to retell the general meaning

in the source language

Can you share with us your understanding

of this material?

Yes

This audio is about

the importance of exercise

and whether people should

keep doing exercises when they are sick

The speaker starts by saying

exercise helps to keep us in good health

Doctors of American Heart Association suggest that

people should do at least 150 minutes

of exercise every week

It’s not hard for those

who have an exercise routine every day

However

people have no idea

whether they should continue exercising

when they’re not feeling very well

A doctor of a clinic says that

mild to moderate exercise

does not bring bad results

if people have the habit of exercise

For instance

if you have symptoms like running nose

sneezing

nasal congestion or minor sore throat

it’s ok for you to exercise

Nice job!

You got all the key points

How did you make it?

Well

actually it largely depends on my

existing knowledge of exercise

I’ve been keeping the habit of exercise

for almost ten years

I once had the same doubts

as to whether it’s good to exercise when I was ill

So I searched for relevant information

and got a similar answer as given in this audio

When I found the audio was about exercise

I quickly recalled what I knew about it

In this way

I was able to connect my personal knowledge

with the audio

That’s wonderful

I believe I’m not the only one who is impressed

You actually used the skill in lecture one

activation of relevant knowledge

What Jeff did just now is a good example of active listening

In your practice

try to make use of skills to increase

the efficiency of your listening

Now

let¡¯s move on to another practice

You’ll listen to the second audio

and work out the logical relations

Ok

If you are watching this lecture

please take your pen and do it together with me

Are you ready to share with us?

Yes

The logic of this audio is clear and simple

The speaker put forward three arguments

and there is a topic sentence for each argument

The three topic sentences

can be summarized into one

namely

eyebrows play an important role

It’s really a good demo

I’m sure the other learners

have learned something from you

It gives me pleasure

to learn with others and share my experience

with them

The end of our practice

brings a close to this lecture

and also Unit Two

Two additional audios

will be given to you to practice the skills

Don’t forget to listen to them

See you next time
