6 Minute English from bbclearningenglish.com Hello.
2
This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.
3
I'm Georgie.
4
And I'm Neil.
5
In this programme, we're talking about the immune system,
6
which is the body's natural defence against getting ill.
7
Now Georgie, is there anything you do to boost your immune system?
8
Yes.
9
I try to eat lots of oranges,
10
which apparently have lots of vitamin C.
11
And there are lots of things people do to try to improve their immune system and stay healthier,
12
like eating certain foods, taking vitamins or even activities like swimming in cold water.
13
We'll find out how useful some of these techniques are in today's programme.
14
But first, Georgie, a question.
15
We all know the common cold.
16
Now that's the illness that makes you cough and sneeze,
17
have a sore throat and headache.
18
But how many colds does the average adult get in the UK each year?
19
Is it A, 2 to 3,
20
B, 4 to 5, or C, 7 to 8?
21
Hmm...
22
8 would be a lot.
23
I'm going to go with A,
24
2 to 3 colds a year.
25
Well, we'll find out at the end of the programme if you're right.
26
Now, many people can become ill over the winter with diseases like colds, flu and COVID-19.
27
Host of BBC Radio 4 programme Inside Health,
28
James Gallagher, gathered some experts to talk about immune systems,
29
and he started off by asking whether they'd had more illnesses than usual this winter.
30
Hello.
31
Hi.
32
Right, how has everyone been this winter?
33
Because I've had a rotten one and I have felt constantly ill since about November.
34
John?
35
I have not had anything yet, touch wood.
36
OK, let's see what I can infect you with by the end of the show.
37
Margaret?
38
I was pretty unwell in September.
39
I had what I presumed to be Covid,
40
but I've been all right since, mild snuffles aside.
41
Eleanor, I really need someone to back me up.
42
Er, no, sorry, I've been absolutely 100% tickety-boo.
43
Unlike James, Professor John Tregoning hasn't been ill.
44
John uses the expression, touch wood,
45
which is an informal phrase said in order to avoid bad luck.
46
Dr Margaret McCartney was unwell in September but has only had a few snuffles since.
47
Snuffles is an informal word used to describe minor illnesses that affect your nose.
48
We can also say sniffles.
49
Host James is surprised that nobody has been ill and says to Professor Eleanor Riley,
50
back me up.
51
If you ask someone to back you up,
52
you're asking for them to say something which supports your opinion.
53
But Eleanor has had a healthy winter too.
54
She's been tickety-boo, which is an informal phrase meaning everything's fine or in good order.
55
Throughout the winter, many people try different techniques,
56
like taking supplements or eating certain foods to boost their immune system,
57
to improve their body's natural defences against disease.
58
Host of BBC Radio 4's Inside Health,
59
James Gallagher, asks Dr Margaret McCartney whether some of these products are successful.
60
OK, quick fire round, Margaret.
61
Echinacea?
62
No. Turmeric?
63
No. Ginger shots?
64
No. This is a very, very good quiz.
65
What about the stuff you squirt up your nose when you're at the beginning of an infection?
66
Interesting, but not any better than normal saline spray, just salt water.
67
In fact, according to Margaret,
68
there isn't enough evidence that many popular health products can actually change the way your immune system works.
69
Another popular health trend in the UK is cold water swimming.
70
People who swim in cold water say it's good for their mental health
71
and they also believe it makes them less likely to get ill during the winter months.
72
But scientists aren't sure about the benefits of cold water swimming for the immune system yet,
73
as Professor John Tregoning explains to BBC Radio 4's Inside Health.
74
The social element actually is really important and it probably is beneficial to do,
75
you reduce stress and cortisol dampens the immune system.
76
So actually, if you're stressed,
77
then maybe you are more prone to infection,
78
and that may be why that benefit of being with people,
79
nice people that you like in nice places, is helping.
80
But I don't think it's unique to cold water swimming.
81
I think you could probably get it from dancing or singing or going for a run.
82
John says that cortisol, a chemical associated with stress, dampens the immune system.
83
Here, dampens means makes weaker.
84
We also have a common expression,
85
dampen someone's spirits, which means to make them less enthusiastic about something.
86
John says that there is evidence that people who are stressed are more prone to infection.
87
If you're more prone to something,
88
it's more likely to happen to you.
89
It could be that cold water swimming reduces stress and so it helps people's immune systems work well.
90
But there are lots of other activities that could have the same effect and help people have fewer colds over winter.
91
Which reminds me of my question, Georgie.
92
I asked how many colds the average UK adult has a year.
93
And I said two to three.
94
And that is the correct answer, so well done!
95
Thank you!
96
OK, let's recap the vocabulary we've learnt starting with touch wood,
97
which is an expression used,
98
often in speech, to avoid bad luck.
99
Snuffles are minor illnesses that affect your nose.
100
If you ask someone to back you up,
101
you want them to say something to support your opinion.
102
The expression tickety-boo means fine and in good order.
103
If you dampen something, you make it weaker.
104
And the expression dampen someone's spirits means you make them less enthusiastic about something.
105
And if you're more prone to something,
106
it's more likely to happen to you.
107
Once again, our six minutes are up,
108
but you can test what you've learned with the free interactive quiz on our website.
109
Bye for now.
110
Goodbye.

이 수업에 대하여

이번 수업에서는 면역 시스템에 대해 이야기합니다. 면역 시스템은 몸이 병에 걸리지 않도록 자연적으로 방어하는 역할을 합니다. 여러분은 식습관이나 운동을 통해 면역력을 높이는 방법을 배울 수 있습니다. 이 수업을 통해 영어 쉐도잉 기술을 활용하여 발음, 억양 및 자연스러운 대화를 연습할 수 있습니다. 흥미로운 표현과 용어를 배우고, 이것들을 실제 상황에 적용하는 데 중점을 둡니다.

주요 어휘 및 구문

  • 면역 시스템 (Immune system) - 신체의 질병에 대한 자연적인 방어 메커니즘
  • 비타민 C (Vitamin C) - 면역력 강화에 도움을 줄 수 있는 영양소
  • 감기 (Cold) - 일반적인 호흡기 질환, 기침과 재채기를 유발함
  • 스니플 (Sniffles) - 코에 영향을 미치는 경미한 질병
  • 좋은 운을 빌다 (Touch wood) - 불운을 피하기 위한 비격식적 표현
  • 건강 유지 (Stay healthier) - 더 나은 건강을 위하여 노력하는 것

연습 팁

이번 수업의 내용을 영어 쉐도잉으로 연습할 때, 다음 사항을 고려해보세요:

  • 비디오를 처음 보고 나서 주요 문장을 들으면서 연습하세요. shadowspeak 기술을 사용하여 발음을 따라 해보세요. 발음을 따라 하는 것은 자신의 발음 억양을 개선하는 데 도움이 됩니다.
  • 천천히 발음 연습을 한 후, 점점 속도를 높여가며 자연스러운 억양을 익히세요. 특히 비디오의 톤과 리듬을 살려서 shadow speech를 연습하면 실제 대화에서의 유창함을 높일 수 있습니다.
  • 각 문장을 반복할 때는 강세와 억양에 유의하며 연습하세요. 이렇게 하면 듣기와 말하기 모두에서 이해력을 향상시킬 수 있습니다.
  • 종종 필요한 표현들을 반복적으로 연습하여 자신의 기억에 장기적으로 남도록 하세요. shadowspeaks 기술을 통해 각 문장의 의미를 명확히 이해하게 됩니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
