6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.

Hello, this is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.
3
I'm Neil.
4
And I'm Georgie.
5
Do you know the five tastes which give food its flavour, Neil?
6
There's sweet...
7
Yes, and sour.. bitter... And salty.
8
Everyone knows that salt makes food taste better by enhancing the flavours of the ingredients.
9
There's even a phrase you'll see in many recipes – add a pinch of salt.
10
But exactly how much salt makes a pinch of salt?
11
The World Health Organisation, or WHO,
12
recommends a daily salt intake of less than 5 grams,
13
about the same as a teaspoon.
14
In fact, the human body needs salt – at least one gram a day to survive.
15
But most of us eat far too much,
16
increasing the risk of high blood pressure and heart disease.
17
In this programme, we'll be asking how much salt is too much?
18
And as usual, we'll be learning some useful new vocabulary as well.
19
Great!
20
But first, I have a question for you, Neil.
21
The reason it's difficult to know how much salt you consume is that it's hidden in food,
22
especially processed food.
23
So which of the following everyday foods do you think contains most salt?
24
Is it a meat, b bread or c pasta?
25
Well, I'm going to guess that meat is the saltiest of those foods.
26
OK, Neil.
27
I'll reveal the answer later in the programme.
28
Marian Sambiva lives in Astana,
29
the capital of Kazakhstan, a country where people eat on average 17 grams of salt a day.
30
That's more than three times the amount recommended by the WHO.
31
Here, Marian explains some of the reasons behind this to BBC World Service programme, The Food Chain.
32
We consume lots of salt,
33
which is due to historical heritage,
34
because when we were nomads for centuries and centuries,
35
we traveled and wandered across the steps.
36
And here we had to carry lots of meat,
37
which could be preserved only adding salt.
38
And even the milk products,
39
the dairy products are also very much salty for the same reasons.
40
Besides improving its flavour, salt can be used to preserve food,
41
to stop it from going bad.
42
Traditionally, people in Kazakhstan were nomads.
43
They travelled from place to place with their animals,
44
rather than living in one place all the time.
45
Treating food with salt gave them enough to eat during the long winter months.
46
They even did it with dairy products – foods which are made from milk,
47
such as cheese and butter.
48
So, salt has a long and useful history.
49
But there's a big difference between traditional Kazakh nomads and the health problems associated with modern processed food.
50
When we eat too much salt,
51
the body dilutes it by retaining water.
52
And as a result, the heart works harder to pump liquid around the body.
53
This causes high blood pressure,
54
which over time can lead to heart disease.
55
Globally, governments are fighting this health risk in different ways.
56
The Australian government reduced its recommended salt intake to 6 grams a day,
57
while the British government has passed laws forcing food companies to reduce the amount of salt they use,
58
and now recommends just 5 grams of salt per day.
59
Claire Collins is Professor of Nutrition at the University of Newcastle in Australia.
60
Here, she explains more about these salt recommendations to BBC World Service programme, The Food Chain.
61
I think you've just got to take a step back and look at the bigger picture.
62
Like arguing whether it should be 5 grams or 6 grams,
63
the issue is that around the world,
64
salt intakes are very high,
65
contributing to high blood pressure,
66
blood pressure contributing to premature strokes,
67
premature mortality, and we need to address it in a way that's culturally appropriate for each country.
68
Instead of arguing over grams of salt,
69
Professor Collins thinks we should take a step back and look at the bigger picture.
70
She uses two idioms, take a step back,
71
which means to temporarily withdraw from a situation in order to think about it more calmly.
72
And look at the bigger picture,
73
to consider the overall meaning of something, not just the details.
74
Yes, the problem remains that over consumption of salt is causing premature health problems – problems
75
which are happening sooner than they should.
76
By limiting salt and processed food,
77
most people can enjoy long, healthy lives.
78
And if you don't like your food unsalted,
79
try adding herbs and spices instead.
80
Well, speaking of salty foods,
81
I think it's time to reveal the answer to my question, Neil.
82
If you remember, I asked you which everyday food contains most salt.
83
And I guessed it was meat.
84
Which was the correct answer.
85
meat contains the highest amount of salt,
86
around 19%, followed by bread with 14% and pasta with 7%.
87
OK, let's recap the vocabulary we've learned in this programme,
88
starting with the verb to preserve food,
89
meaning to do something to stop it rotting so it can be eaten later.
90
Nomads are people who travel from one place to another,
91
often with animal livestock, rather than living in one place all the time.
92
products are foods such as cheese and butter,
93
which are made from milk.
94
If you take a step back,
95
you temporarily remove yourself from a situation in order to re-evaluate it.
96
The idiom to look at the bigger picture means to consider the overall meaning of something rather than the specific details.
97
And finally, the adjective premature describes something which happens too soon or before the proper time.
98
Once again, our six minutes are up.
99
Goodbye for now.
100
Bye.

인기 동영상

이 영상으로 스피킹 연습을 해야 하는 이유는?

이 BBC Learning English의 6분 영어 영상은 건강과 소금 섭취에 관한 흥미로운 내용을 담고 있습니다. 이를 통해 영어를 배우는 과정에서 다양한 어휘와 표현을 익히고, 실제 대화 맥락에서의 스피킹 연습을 하는 것이 중요합니다. 소금의 역할과 세계 건강 기구의 권장 섭취량에 대한 내용을 통해 IELTS 스피킹과 같은 시험에 대비할 수 있는 기회를 제공합니다. 실제 대화에 기반한 연습은 학습자들이 영어 말하기 능력을 향상시키는 데 큰 도움을 줍니다.

문맥 속의 문법 및 표현

  • 이유를 설명하는 방법: "The reason it's difficult to know how much salt you consume is that it's hidden in food." 이 문장에서는 'why'와 'because'의 사용으로 원인과 결과를 분명히 합니다.
  • 추정하기: "I'm going to guess that meat is the saltiest of those foods." 여기서는 'guess'라는 표현을 사용하여 추측을 나타내고 있습니다. 이는 실제 대화에서 유용하게 사용할 수 있는 구조입니다.
  • 과거와 현재 비교하기: "But there's a big difference between traditional Kazakh nomads and the health problems associated with modern processed food." 이 구조는 비교하는 방식을 통해 스피킹에서 깊이 있는 논의를 가능하게 합니다.

일반적인 발음 함정

이 영상에서 발음이 어려운 단어 중 하나는 "consume"입니다. '칸슈미'로 발음하는 것이 일반적이지만, 실제 대화에서는 빠르게 '컨줌'처럼 들릴 수 있으니 주의해야 합니다. 또한 "processed food"라는 표현은 자주 등장하는 만큼 정확한 발음을 익혀야 합니다. 이러한 단어들을 연습할 때는 shadow speech 기법을 활용하면 좋습니다. 영어 발음 교정 연습 시, 본 영상의 발음을 따라 하는 것이 효과적입니다. 특히, 각 단어의 억양이나 강세를 맞춰보는 것도 중요한 팁입니다.

공식적인 shadowing site를 활용하거나 shadowspeaks와 같은 다양한 자료를 통해 연습하시면 더욱 효과적인 학습이 가능합니다. 중요한 것은 지속적으로 반복하며 자연스럽게 발음과 문장을 익히는 것입니다.

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.
