Kids Health presents How the Body Works with Chloe and the Nerds.
2
Whoa, that was a big one.
3
I'll say.
4
Hey, where did the brain go?
5
That nose tornado scattered the brain all across Bodylandia.
6
Hello, children.
7
I am the Cerebrum.
8
Oh, hi friend.
9
Do you know where we could find the brain?
10
You're going on a marvelous adventure to find four important parts of the brain.
11
Wow.
12
I am the biggest part of the brain,
13
the thinking part of the brain,
14
and the part that controls your voluntary muscles.
15
Without me, you wouldn't be able to dance or talk to your friends.
16
No dancing.
17
Oh dear.
18
I am the cerebrum.
19
I store your memories and make it possible for you to have feelings and emotions.
20
I'm located right here.
21
By weight, I'm more than 85% of your brain.
22
I'm split into two halves.
23
The right half of the cerebrum controls the left side of your body,
24
and the left controls the right side.
25
You need different parts of the cerebrum to do different things.
26
Everything from doing a math problem to playing the piano.
27
Oh, that's amazing.
28
I am kind of amazing.
29
Now, on with the adventure.
30
Just follow the brainy brick road.
31
We will already!
32
You don't have to be all pushy about it.
33
Boo.
34
Ha ha, I'm the brain stem.
35
AAAAAAAA!
36
I connect the brain to the spinal cord. Could you stop yelling?
37
Sorry, we scared easily.
38
I'm located at the base of the brain,
39
where I connect the brain to the spinal cord.
40
The spinal cord is a bundle of nerves that is protected by the spine.
41
The spinal cord is the main pathway for information to flow from the brain to the rest of the body.
42
Wow.
43
Nice to meet you, Brainstem.
44
I'm in charge of all the functions your body needs to stay alive,
45
like breathing air, circulating blood, and digesting food.
46
And that you do.
47
Hm, hm, hm, hm, hm.
48
Hey, Nurbin Chloe.
49
Hi, Bridge.
50
Well, I guess you could say I'm sort of like a bridge.
51
I'm part of the brain called the corpus callosum.
52
I'm a thick band of nerve fibers.
53
They connect the two halves of the brain.
54
That's impressive.
55
Oh, hi, friend.
56
Nice to meet you, friends.
57
I'm the cerebellum.
58
I control your balance, movement, and coordination.
59
I'm located at the back of the brain, right over here.
60
It's my job to keep you balanced.
61
Oh, that's amazing.
62
Well, let's see.
63
Cerebrum, corpus callosum, brainstem, cerebellum.
64
I think we've done it, Chloe!
65
That's right!
66
Your adventure is complete!
67
Now, just click your heels and you can go home!
68
Click my heels?
69
That's not very scientific!

About This Lesson

In this lesson, you will practice your English speaking skills by exploring how the brain functions. By engaging with the video transcript, you will enhance your understanding of the complex roles different parts of the brain play in our everyday abilities. This lesson will also allow you to improve your English pronunciation through context-specific vocabulary and interactive shadowing exercises. As you learn, remember to listen carefully to the tone and speed of the narration, which will help you adjust your own speech patterns and rhythm.

Key Vocabulary & Phrases

  • Cerebrum: The part of the brain responsible for thinking, voluntary muscle movements, and emotions.
  • Brain stem: The structure connecting the brain to the spinal cord, controlling essential life functions such as breathing.
  • Spinal cord: A bundle of nerves that transmits information between the brain and the body.
  • Voluntary muscles: Muscles that you can control consciously, like those used when dancing or talking.
  • Emotions: Feelings such as joy, sadness, or anger that are influenced by the cerebrum.
  • Memories: Information and experiences stored in your brain that influence your thoughts and behavior.
  • Adventure: An exciting journey or exploration, which in this lesson reflects your learning experience.

Practice Tips

For effective learning, try shadowspeaking while listening to the transcript. Focus on shadowing the speaker's words: repeat them immediately after you hear them, mimicking their speed and intonation. Given the energetic tone of the video, you might find it beneficial to practice in short segments. This will allow you to grasp the pronunciation and rhythm without feeling overwhelmed.

As you proceed with your shadow speak practice, pay special attention to how emotions and thoughts are conveyed through tone. For instance, when discussing the role of the cerebrum, notice how the voice conveys excitement and importance. Try to replicate that same enthusiasm in your speech, as it can make your English sound more natural and engaging.

Engaging with educational videos like this one is a fantastic way to learn English with YouTube. Make sure to revisit challenging sections and refine your pronunciation until it feels comfortable. Consistent practice will not only boost your vocabulary but also enhance your overall communication skills!

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.
