How radioactive are your teeth?
2
In the 1950s, American dentists collecting baby teeth found that they were dangerously radioactive and levels were rising every year.
3
This is bad news.
4
Radioactive teeth means radioactive bones.
5
Where was all this radioactivity coming from?
6
Not from their neighborhood, but nuclear weapons testing thousands of miles away.
7
As tensions escalated in the Cold War, The United States and the Soviet Union designed increasingly powerful nuclear weapons, many of which were detonated on their own soil.
8
Nuclear fission produces dozens of nuclei, most of which are radioactive themselves.
9
Atmospheric tests at the Nevada test site carried radioactive debris east where it would fall out of the air onto pasture.
10
Cows would eat this grass, making their milk slightly radioactive.
11
When this milk is given to children, radioactive elements are built into bones and teeth, accumulate in the thyroid and are incorporated into every cell.
12
When a radioactive nucleus decays in the body, it spits out high-energy particles, which break chemical bonds in cells,
13
mutate DNA, and ultimately cause cancers like leukemia.
14
And there were lots of tests.
15
Altogether, over 2,000 nuclear weapons have been detonated, more than 500 of them above ground,
16
spreading the radioactive fallout of 545 megatons of explosions.
17
And there's no cleaning it up.
18
This fallout is everywhere in the environment, causing cancers and potentially killing as many or more than the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
19
Ultimately, the discovery of radioactive teeth convinced the US and Soviet Union to sign the partial test ban treaty,
20
so the good news is that above-ground testing mostly stopped during the Cold War, and the dangerous radioactive nuclei are slowly decaying away.
21
But many of these nuclei have half-lives of decades to centuries, so even people born today, long after testing has stopped,
22
may be killed by the fallout from last century's tests.
23
While testing has mostly stopped, it could return unless the nuclear weapons states formally adopt a UN treaty to ban it.
24
You have a choice.
25
You can demand that the governments of the world ban nuclear testing and even nuclear weapons, or you can look in the mirror and ask yourself...

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचनावीडियो में
Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता हैwere detonated · is given · have been detonated
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी हैhave been detonated · has stopped

ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण

  • “th” की ध्वनियाँ: thyroid /ˈθaɪ.ɹɔɪd/, altogether /ɔl.tuˈɡɛð.ɚ/
  • लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: radioactive /ˌɹeɪdioʊˈæktɪv/, accumulate /əˈkjuːmjʊˌleɪt/, leukemia /luːˈkiːmi.ə/, radioactivity /ˌreɪdɪəʊakˈtɪvɪti/, atmospheric /ˌætməsˈfɛɹɪk/

इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें

  1. पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
  2. 0.75× गति से शुरू करें, एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें, और सहज लगने पर सामान्य गति पर लौटें।
  3. अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर radioactive, nucleus, decay जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।

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।
