What makes you happy?
9
For thousands of years, people all over the world have discussed these questions,
10
and expressed different opinions.
11
We begin today's program with some of their thoughts.
12
Aristotle was a great thinker who lived in Greece over 2,000 years ago.
13
He said, "'Happiness depends on ourselves.'" Thucydides also lived in Greece at about the same time.
14
He was a military man who studied history.
15
He said, "'The secret of happiness is freedom.
16
And the secret of freedom is courage." William Gladstone was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in the 19th century.
17
He said, Be happy with what you have and are.
18
Be open-handed with both and you will not have to hunt for happiness."
19
Charles Spurgeon also lived in the United Kingdom at about the same time.
20
He was a religious speaker.
21
And he said, It is not how much we have,
22
but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.
23
Today's Spotlight is on happiness.
24
People all around the world think that happiness is important.
25
In 2012, the United Nations even passed a resolution about happiness.
26
All 193 member states agreed to the resolution.
27
They recognized happiness as a global human goal.
28
And they decided to make the 20th of March the International Day of Happiness.
29
On the 20th of March, 2015, the Secretary General of the United Nations,
30
Ban Ki-moon, wrote a special message.
31
In it, he said, I wish everyone around the world a very happy International Day of Happiness.
32
The search for happiness is a serious business.

Let us give thanks for what makes us happy.
40
And let us give our efforts to filling our world with happiness.
41
But what makes people happy?
42
Many people think that happiness depends on being rich and beautiful.
43
But scientists and experts have studied happiness.
44
They know this is not correct.
45
Good and bad things happen to everyone.
46
Many scientists and experts believe that happiness is something we can choose.
47
They believe that happiness is not always about what happens to you.
48
They believe that much happiness is about how you choose to react.
49
You can choose to react to events in your life in a positive way.
50
Dr. Amit Sood is an expert at the Mayo Clinic in the United States.
51
He said, Happiness is a habit or custom.
52
Some of us are born happy, but most others have to choose it.
53
We often, however, do not understand we have that choice.
54
We also do not know how to exercise that choice.
55
As a result, we push happiness away.
56
Do not let that happen to you.
57
So, how can we choose to be happy?
58
What do we need to do?
59
Experts have a lot of different advice.
60
But they agree that gratitude, or being thankful, is very important.
61
You will learn to be happy, or happier, by being thankful.
62
Dr. Robert Emmons is a leading expert on gratitude.
63
He suggests many ways to become more thankful.
64
One method he suggests is keeping a gratitude journal or book.
65
Every day, write down things for which you are thankful.
66
These things may be about you, events, or people.
67
He also suggests that you use the language of thankful people.
68
You can use words like gifts, givers, blessings, and blessed.
69
What things are people most grateful for?

Bupa is a health organization in the United Kingdom.
71
Bupa did some research about the things that make people feel happy.

संदर्भ और पृष्ठभूमि
आज का विषय है "खुशी", जो पूरी दुनिया में एक महत्वपूर्ण चर्चा का विषय है। स्पॉटलाइट में, लिज़ वाइड और एдам नविस संवाद स्थापित करते हैं और हमें यह बताते हैं कि खुशी का अर्थ क्या है और यह हमारे जीवन में क्यों आवश्यक है। प्राचीन ग्रीक दार्शनिकों से लेकर आधुनिक वैज्ञानिकों तक, लोगों ने खुशी को समझने और उसे परिभाषित करने की कोशिश की है। उनके विचारों में यह स्पष्ट होता है कि खुशी केवल भौतिक वस्तुओं पर निर्भर नहीं करती; यह एक ऐसी भावना है जिसे हम व्यक्तिगत रूप से चुन सकते हैं। इस चर्चा में, हम सीखेंगे कि कैसे खुशी और सकारात्मकता के विचारों का तात्पर्य हमारे जीवन की गुणवत्ता को बेहतर बना सकते हैं, और इसके माध्यम से हम अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास भी कर सकते हैं।
दैनिक संवाद के लिए शीर्ष 5 वाक्यांश
- क्या आप खुश हैं? (Are you happy?)
- खुशी हमारे अपने ऊपर निर्भर करती है। (Happiness depends on ourselves.)
- खुशी की कुंजी स्वतंत्रता है। (The secret of happiness is freedom.)
- खुशी का आनंद लेने के लिए हमें खुला हाथ रखना चाहिए। (Be open-handed to enjoy happiness.)
- हमारे पास जो कुछ है, उसके लिए हमें आभारी होना चाहिए। (We should be thankful for what we have.)
चरण-दर-चरण शैडोइंग गाइड
अंग्रेजी उच्चारण में सुधार करने और अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करने के लिए, आप इस वीडियो से शैडोइंग तकनीक का उपयोग कर सकते हैं। यहाँ एक सरल गाइड है:
- विडियो को ध्यान से सुनें: पहले पूरी बातचीत को ध्यान से सुनें। इससे आपको विषय और उच्चारण समझने में मदद मिलेगी।
- शब्दों की नकल करें: वीडियो के संवाद को धीरे-धीरे दोहराने का प्रयास करें। आप "शैडो स्पीच" तकनीक का उपयोग कर सकते हैं, जहां आप वक्ता के साथ-साथ बोलते हैं।
- रफ्तार पर ध्यान दें: बात करने की रफ्तार और उच्चारण पर ध्यान दें। आवश्यकतानुसार धीमा करके अभ्यास करें, फिर धीरे-धीरे गति बढ़ाएं।
- मुखरता पर ध्यान दें: अपनी आवाज़ को स्पष्ट और मुखर बनाएं। शब्दों को स्पष्टता से बोलने का प्रयास करें।
- अभ्यास करते रहें: नियमित प्रभावित करने वाले मामलों की स्थिति में अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करें। यह आपकी आत्म-विश्वास और प्रवाह में सुधार करेगा।
उपरोक्त तकनीकों का पालन करके, आप अपनी अंग्रेजी बोलने की दक्षता में सुधार कर सकते हैं। खुश रहने और सकारात्मकता बढ़ाने के लिए इन विचारों को अपने जीवन में शामिल करें।
शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
