Unit 6, Track 14 Hey Matt, are you coming out tonight?
2
I'd love to, Amy, thanks, but I've got too much work.
3
I need to get this psychology assignment in by Thursday.
4
Oh, what's it on?
5
Happiness, or specifically, the things that make people happy.
6
Wow, that's a big area.
7
How are you approaching it?
8
Well, I've been looking on the internet to see what various experts have to say on the subject
9
Did you find anything interesting?
10
Well, yes, I did Like?
11
Like, for example, there's a professor at Nottingham University, a guy called Richard Tunney And he suggests that the more close friends we have,
12
the happier we are And if you see these friends regularly, go out with them and so on, well, that's even better
13
I'd have thought that was fairly obvious I guess so The next one is a bit more interesting though Martin Seligman,
14
a professor of psychology at an American university Conducted a happiness experiment with his students What did he do?
15
Give everyone huge amounts of cash and then see how much they smiled That would help, wouldn't it?
16
Well, perhaps it would For a short while, anyway No, what he did was tell half his students to take part in fun activities,
17
like playing video games or going to the cinema, and the other half to do good things.
18
Good things?
19
You know, like visiting elderly people at a care home, or some other kind of voluntary work.
20
And it was those students who reported a more lasting feeling of happiness.
21
Hmm, that's interesting then there's george valent a psychiatrist
22
and professor at harvard medical school he's spent the past 60 years studying people
23
so i guess he probably knows a bit about them he certainly does according to him the thing
24
that really makes people happy is having something to aim for you know a goal in the future right
25
so i can say by the time i'm 30 i'm going to be a millionaire
26
and that will make me happy ah
27
but valent has a warning here you need to be realistic it's no good setting yourself impossible goals
28
because well because you'll only make yourself unhappy trying to achieve them exactly
29
so does anyone mention anything that people normally assume brings happiness like a healthy bank account
30
or an expensive house something more uh material funnily enough those
31
things aren't mentioned much here's another interesting one though melanie hodgson she's a professor at westbrook university claims
32
that people are happier when they're getting ready to go on holiday oh i love
33
that sitting on a beach relaxing sightseeing no not the actual holiday itself
34
which professor hodgson says can sometimes be quite stressful that's true they can
35
but the things you do leading up to it
36
deciding what you're going to take with you what you're going to see
37
and do packing your case
38
that kind of thing oh i get it yes i can see how that would work unit six track fifteen
39
I've also found one of those personality tests on the internet.
40
You know, answer these questions to find out how happy you are.
41
Oh, those.
42
They're a bit of a waste of time, aren't they?
43
I did one on how healthy are you, and the results were completely wrong.
44
But they're quite good fun, though, aren't they?
45
Well, yes, especially if you do them with friends.
46
I think it's important that you shouldn't take them seriously, though.
47
That's true Anyway, why should I do a test that tells me how happy or healthy or successful I am?
48
I mean, I already know the answers, don't I?
49
So I'm not likely to get any surprises, like Oh, according to this test, I'm happy I didn't expect that OK,
50
I take your point So what makes you happy?
51
Oh, I don't know Spending time with people I know and like, I guess I need people around me Me too.
52
But I need time on my own as well.
53
That doesn't really bother me.
54
I grew up in a big family, so I'm used to someone always being in the room.
55
If I wanted to be alone, to get away from people, I had to go out for a walk or something.
56
I still do that occasionally.
57
In fact, that's one thing that makes me happy.
58
A long walk in the countryside.
59
And the advantage is that you're getting some exercise too, which is something I don't usually do.
60
But you go running, don't you?
61
Sometimes, but only because I feel I have to.
62
Anyway, back to your assignment.
63
You've got all the information you need.
64
Not quite.
65
I need to do a bit more research first.
66
Okay, so you'll be off to the library then?
67
I would if I knew I could find something useful.
68
But you know how disorganised it is there.
69
It's impossible to find what you want, especially when it comes to psychology books.
70
Oh, I know.
71
No, give me a computer and the internet any day.
72
Well, good luck with that.
73
If you get bored and want a break, you know where to find me.
74
Thanks, but if I don't get this done, I'll be in trouble.
75
Why don't you email Tony?
76
He did a similar assignment last year, so he might have a few suggestions That's a good idea.
77
Have you got his email address?
78
Sure.
79
Give me a moment while I look it up Thanks

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
