- Hello everyone and welcome back to English with Lucy.
大家好，欢迎再次收听由露西主持的英语节目。
I have got such a treat for you today!
今天我有个特别棒的惊喜要告诉你！
I've been excited about this for such a long time.
我很久以前就对这件事感到非常兴奋了。
I am shortly going to welcome two lovely guests who have generously given their time to help teach you the differences between Australian English,
我马上要欢迎两位非常可爱的客人。她们慷慨地抽出时间来帮助大家了解澳大利亚英语与标准英语之间的区别。
American English, and British English.
美式英语和英式英语。
This is going to be a two-part series, today, we are going to focus on vocabulary and then in the next part of the video,
这将是一个分为两部分的系列文章。今天，我们重点讨论词汇；而在视频的下一部分中，我们将继续探讨其他相关内容。
we are focusing on pronunciation.
我们目前重点关注发音问题。
We may all speak the same language: English, but we have very different accents and we speak with different vocabularies.
我们可能都使用同一种语言——英语，但我们的口音差异很大，而且表达方式（即使用的词汇）也各不相同。
So this video is perfect for improving your vocabulary but if you want to improve your pronunciation and your listening skills even further,
因此，这个视频非常适合帮助你扩大词汇量。不过，如果你还想进一步提升自己的发音能力和听力技巧的话……
then I highly recommend the special method of combining reading books whilst listening to their audiobook counterpart on Audible.
因此，我强烈推荐这样一种特殊的学习方法：在阅读书籍的同时，通过 Audible 平台收听该书籍的有声书版本。
This is how you use the method.
这就是使用该方法的方法。
Take a book that you have already read in English or a book that you would like to read in English,
找一本你已经用英语读过的书，或者一本你想用英语读的书。
I've got plenty of recommendations down below in the description box, and read that book whilst listening to the audiobook version on Audible.
我在描述框中提供了很多推荐书目；你可以一边阅读这些书籍，一边在 Audible 平台上收听这些书的有声书版本。
Reading alone will not help you with your pronunciation because English isn't a strictly phonetic language.
仅仅阅读是无法帮助你改善发音的，因为英语并不是一种完全依赖语音规则的语言。
The way a word is written in English may not give you much indication at all as to how it's pronounced in English.
一个单词在英语中的书写方式，往往无法让你准确判断它的发音方式。
But if you listen to a word at the same time as reading it, your brain will start making connections.
但是，如果你在阅读文字的同时也尝试去理解每个单词的含义，你的大脑就会开始建立各种联系（即在不同信息之间建立关联）。
And the next time you hear that word, you'll know exactly how it's spelt, and the next time you see that word written down,
下次当你听到那个词时，你就会准确地知道它的拼写方式；而下次当你看到那个词被写下来的时候，你也会更加清楚它的样子了。
you'll know exactly how it's pronounced.
你就会清楚地知道它的发音方式了。
It is such an effective method and the best part is you can get one free audiobook, that's a 30-day free trial on Audible,
这是一种非常有效的方法，最棒的是你还可以免费获得一本有声书——Audible提供为期30天的免费试用服务。
all you've got to do is on the link in the description box and sign up.
