Addicted to Distraction.
4
David Strayer never texts or talks on a phone when he is driving.
5
Strayer is a cognitive psychologist at the University of Utah who specializes in attention.
6
His research shows that when driving, using a phone can be as dangerous as drinking alcohol.
7
Strayer and other scientists warn against multitasking
8
When we do many things at the same time Strayer says our brain becomes tired easily We make mistakes
9
and lose focus yet multitasking is increasingly common especially on a phone or computer
10
Dr. Gloria mark a digital media researcher has found
11
that people in the United States switch tasks on their computers
12
566 times a day this type of multitasking is especially common among teenagers on average a teenager spends between seven
13
and eleven hours a day in front of a screen doing
14
homework texting watching videos often all at the same time phones tablets
15
and laptops are all useful tools and we may feel more productive when we use them.
16
However, when we spend hours on digital devices, constantly switching between activities, our overall productivity decreases.
17
Why?
18
Many digital activities require high levels of concentration.
19
When we text or email someone, for example, or even play games, we have to focus.
20
When we do this, our brain uses energy.
21
When we multitask, which is hard for the brain to do, we use even more energy.
22
Excessive multitasking reduces our ability to think clearly and creatively, and to remember information.
23
This, in turn, can result in stress.
24
What is the best cure for our overstressed minds?
25
David Strayer says the answer is simple.
26
Spend some time in nature.
27
A natural remedy.
28
Strayer and other scientists are studying nature's effect on our brains and bodies.
29
When we are in natural environments, the prefrontal cortex, the brain's control center, relaxes.
30
Studies show that when people can see trees and grass, they are calmer and do better in school.
31
Indeed, people even relax when they look at photos of nature.
32
Consequently, they do better on different cognitive tasks.
33
Other psychologists are also studying nature therapy.
34
In a study at Chiba University in Japan, 84 subjects went for a 15 -minute walk in seven different forests.
35
The same number of people walked around different city centers.
36
Researchers then took blood from each person.
37
The forest walkers had a 16 % decrease in the stress hormone cortisol all.
38
In addition, they had a 2 % drop in blood pressure and a 4 % drop in heart rate.
39
All did better than the city walkers.
40
Lead researcher Yoshifumi Miyazaki has an explanation for these results.
41
Our bodies relax in pleasant natural surroundings, he says.
42
Humans evolved in that environment, not in places with tall buildings and lots of traffic.
43
Psychologist Stephen Kaplan and his colleagues have done similar research.
44
In one study, people took a 50 -minute walk in a public garden.
45
In a test conducted afterwards, their short -term memory improved.
46
When the same people walked on a city street, it did not.
47
Kaplan says it is the visual details in nature, sunsets, streams, butterflies, that reduce stress and mental fatigue.
48
We enjoy them without having to concentrate on them.
49
This allows our brains to rest and recover from the stresses of modern life.
50
Imagine a therapy that was readily available and could improve your cognitive functioning at zero cost, Kaplan says.
51
It exists.
52
It's called interacting with nature.

Was du lernst

Dieses Video hilft dir, komplexe Informationen flüssig nachzusprachern und sachliche Inhalte mit Klangverständnis zu verarbeiten. Du übst, langsamere Sätze zu folgen, ohne den Fokus zu verlieren, und lernst, wie du Stressszenarien und Lösungen in Englisch ausdrückst – perfekt fürs Shadowing!

Horch nach diesen Klängen

Achte auf Verbindungen zwischen Wörtern, z. B. "switch tasks" → "swi-tasks" oder "natural environments" → "natu-ralenvironments". Reduktionen wie "they're" statt "they are" oder "it's" statt "it is" treten oft auf. Übe, diese flüssigen Übergänge zu hören – das macht dein Sprechen nativer!

Sag es wie ein Native

Der Sprecher nutzt eine ruhige, informative Rhythmus – kopiere ihn! Betone Schlüsselwörter wie "Kognition", "Stresshormon" oder "Naturtherapie", um die Bedeutung klar zu machen. Nutze Pausen nach langen Sätzen, wie im Video: "Our bodies relax in pleasant natural surroundings, he says." So klingst du nicht nur verständlich, sondern auch überzeugend. Probier's mit Shadowing: Wiederhole den Text direkt nach dem Sprecher, und beachte die Betonung. Plattformen für Shadow Speak oder Shadowspeak können dir hier helfen, deinen Fluss zu verbessern. Englisch lernen mit Videos und Shadowing ist eine tolle Möglichkeit, dein Sprechen schnell zu verbessern – also los, probier's aus!

Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?

Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
