http://www.geocities.jp/k_kobuta/images/kuma_wel.gifhttp://www.geocities.jp/k_kobuta/images/usagi.gif毎日、新聞読む感覚で・・シャドウイング・・メモのような、単語帳のようなものです。

・・・そう言えば、前に自由の女神遠巻き見学したときは足元工事中だったような・・・・
VOAヘッドラインニュースをmp3playerに落として「T」を指折り数える。
ftp://8475.ftp.storage.akadns.net/mp3/voa/english/nnow/NNOW_HEADLINES.mp3

「T」数えて、前頭葉封鎖?? 音を耳の後ろの後頭部に送り込んで言語野を活性化??
1.【Tを指折り数える】←音聞きながらTを指折り数えます。残りは耳の後ろのあたりで無意識に聞いている感じ。
2.【シャドウイングをする】←Tを数えた記事のスクリプト見ながらシャドウイング(音読)。
   ←慣れてきたらシャドーを2重3重にすると生英語の記憶(音のまま記憶して後で考える)領域
    が広がって行く・・

母音は捨てて「T」を意識したシャドウイングをする。
  米語→舌を奥ののどちんこに向かって反って「うーうー」とうなるような感じ。
  英語→「えア」と言って、口の形をキープしたまま、閉じずに、喉の奥の方まで「えア」にする感じ。

・母音を意識すると、日本語のあいうえおが勝ってしまう上、英語、米語、方言によって
微妙に違うので対応が難しい。しかし、「T」なら、方言の影響をほとんど受けない。

・これは、はやりの脳トレに近い。脳の前頭葉?で「T」を含む単語を集中して聞き分けて数えるのと、脳の違うところ言語野?で何となく意味をとる脳のマルチタスクトレーニングでちょっと頭がしびれてくるような感覚だ!

・集中切れても、すぐ復活できる。途中でわからなくなっても、「T」を捜して、すぐに復活できる
