1
personal computers have become smaller yet increasingly more powerful today many daily
2
Early activities involve mobile communication and computer access both in and outside the home.
3
For some inventors, the next step is to integrate computers into accessories or into smart clothing, thus creating wearable computers.
4
Martin Kelly reports.
5
The concept of wearable computers is hardly innovative.
6
Early attempts at manufacturing them produced clumsy results.
7
The wearer had to wrap himself in wires
8
or strap a strange -looking device to his forehead and carry a backpack of computer equipment.
9
The technology didn't sell because in today's world, appearance is everything.
10
However, today's wearable computers may provide the solution.
11
Professor Tanya Carter is here to tell us more.
12
Wearable technology is evolving so fast that it has become not only extremely convenient, but a fashion statement too. For example,
13
handheld computers have been miniaturized enough to be strapped to the wrist like a watch not much larger than the average chronometer.
14
Though limited in applications, it is only a matter of time before the watch has full computing capacity.
15
This could eliminate the need to carry a laptop.
16
And rather than attaching all kinds of objects to a jacket, researchers are creating state -of -the -art textiles with electronics built in.
17
One such textile is composed of small patches of fabric into which minuscule computer chips have been embedded.
18
These patches are assembled with Velcro that conducts electricity to create a purse similar in appearance to an ordinary leather purse.
19
This purse provides you with information, such as the latest weather forecast.
20
It can also keep track of your wallet via a minute radio signaling chip attached to the wallet.
21
Sensors integrated into the purse's fabric transmit a message to alert you if the wallet is not inside.
22
This purse even allows you to upload your favorite music onto your music player, which, incidentally, could soon be inside your scarf.
23
I understand that scientists are creating accessories, but there are other innovations in the field of computer -integrated clothing, right?
24
What kind of initiatives are underway to adapt wearable computers for use in fields like health and emergency services?
25
Well, as monitors, wearable computers have many applications.
26
For example, a smart armband registers data about the wearer's physical condition.
27
It can help people lose weight by telling them how many calories they're burning at any given time during exercise.
28
Doctors could also use it to monitor the well -being of the elderly and infants, too.
29
One ingenious adaptation is a shirt made of a special fabric that has the capacity to analyze the wearer's heart rate,
30
respiration, and other key health indicators.
31
For example, it is being used today in medical research to examine the effectiveness of certain new heart treatments.
32
And since it can measure stress levels and body heat,
33
it could be used to monitor firefighters at a blaze or to allow a mother to check on her asthmatic child.
34
Another wearable item
35
that has proved remarkably helpful to runners who want to keep
36
fit is a sensor embedded into the sole of their running shoes.
37
The sensor relays information about the speed
38
and the distance you've covered to your iPod
39
and can change the music track to another song with a faster or slower tempo, thus encouraging you to accelerate your pace or reduce your speed.
40
The sensor is invisible and the earphones are the same as the ones on a regular iPod.
41
So fashion -wise, the wearer would not feel conspicuous.
42
Obviously, as technology advances, so will the wearable computer.
43
Ultimately, it could be a smart assistant that goes wherever we go, registering and analyzing data about us and our environment.
44
Number 1.
45
Why were the first wearable computers unsuccessful?
46
Number two.
47
What development has improved wearable computers?
48
Number three.
49
What is unusual about the new purse?
50
Number 4.
51
How have wearable computers helped medical research?
52
Number 5.
53
Why are wearable computers useful in fitness training?
54
The wearer had to wrap himself in wires
55
or strap a strange -looking device to his forehead and carry a backpack of computer equipment.
56
The technology didn't sell because in today's world, appearance is everything.
57
Wearable technology is evolving so fast that it has become not only extremely convenient, but a fashion statement too.
58
It can also keep track of your wallet via a minute radio signaling chip attached to the wallet.
59
Sensors integrated into the purse's fabric transmit a message to alert you if the wallet is not inside.
60
For example, it is being used today in medical research to examine the effectiveness of certain new heart treatments.
61
Another wearable item
62
that has proved remarkably helpful to runners who want to keep
63
fit is a sensor embedded into the sole of their running shoes.
64
The sensor relays information about the speed and the distance you've covered to your iPod.
65
Thank you.
66
Thank you.

इस पाठ की शब्दावली और बोलने के सुझाव

यह स्पीकिंग पाठ वीडियो “TOEFL Listening Practice” पर आधारित है। सबसे ज़्यादा दोहराए गए शब्द ये हैं: computer, wearable, sensor, wallet, purse। इस वीडियो में शैडोइंग के लिए 66 वाक्य और 810 शब्द हैं। बोला गया हिस्सा 8:04 लंबा है। वक्ता धीरे बोलता है, लगभग 100 शब्द प्रति मिनट, इसलिए हर ध्वनि की नकल करने का समय मिलता है। केवल 74% शब्द अंग्रेज़ी के 3,000 सबसे आम शब्दों में से हैं, इसलिए शब्दावली कठिन है।

इस वीडियो की मुख्य शब्दावली

वीडियो के 15 सीखने लायक शब्द, उच्चारण और अर्थ के साथ:

शब्दउच्चारणअर्थ
wallet संज्ञा/ˈwɑl.ət/बटुआ
purse संज्ञा/pɚs/पर्स, बटुआ
monitor संज्ञा/ˈmɑ.nɪ.tɚ/पर्यवेक्षक
strap संज्ञा/stɹæp/बद्धी
clothing संज्ञा/ˈkloʊðɪŋ/वस्त्र, कपड़े
helpful विशेषण/ˈhɛlp.fl̩/मददगार
wire संज्ञा/ˈwaɪɚ/तार
alert विशेषण/əˈlɝt/सतर्क, सजग
sole संज्ञा/səʊl/तलवा
shoe संज्ञा/ˈʃu/जूता
wrap क्रिया/ɹæp/लपेटना
examine क्रिया/ɪɡˈzæmɪn/जाँचना, जाँच करना
runner संज्ञा/ˈɹʌnɚ/धावक, रनर
convenient विशेषण/kənˈviː.niənt/सुविधाजनक
forehead संज्ञा/ˈfɔɹ.hɛd/माथा, माथ

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

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

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

ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण

वक्ता 5 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे didn't, you've, they're। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।

  • “th” की ध्वनियाँ: clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, leather /ˈlɛðɚ/
  • “sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: shoe /ˈʃu/, unusual /ʌnˈjuːʒ(u)əl/, initiative /ɪˈnɪʃ.ə.tɪv/, innovation /ˌɪn.əˈveɪ.ʃən/, adaptation /ˌæd.æpˈteɪ.ʃən/
  • लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: effectiveness /ɪˈfɛk.tɪv.nɪs/, remarkably /ɹɪˈmɑɹkəbli/, accessory /əkˈsɛs.(ə.)ɹi/, unusual /ʌnˈjuːʒ(u)əl/, electricity /ɪˌlɛkˈtɹɪsɪti/

हिंदी भाषियों के लिए मुश्किल ध्वनियाँ:

  • /v/ और /w/ का फ़र्क़ — /v/ में ऊपर के दाँत निचले होंठ को छूते हैं, /w/ में होंठ गोल होते हैं: wallet /ˈwɑl.ət/, wire /ˈwaɪɚ/, convenient /kənˈviː.niənt/, effectiveness /ɪˈfɛk.tɪv.nɪs/, evolve /ɪˈvɑlv/
  • /z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: examine /ɪɡˈzæmɪn/, analyze /ˈæn.əˌlaɪz/, invisible /ɪnˈvɪzəb(ə)l/, blaze /bleɪz/, asthmatic /æzˈmætɪk/
  • शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: strap /stɹæp/, scarf /skɑːf/

इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें

  1. पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
  2. सामान्य गति पर एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें और हर वाक्य तब तक दोहराएँ जब तक आपकी लय वक्ता से न मिल जाए।
  3. अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर wallet, purse, monitor 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।
