쉐도잉 연습: What Is Life? Is Death Real? - 영상으로 영어 말하기 배우기
레슨 만드는 중...
1
Life is fundamentally different from dead stuff, or is it?
2
Physicist Erwin Schrödinger defined life this way.
3
Living things avoid decay into disorder and equilibrium.
4
What does this mean?
5
Let's pretend that your download folder is the universe.
6
It started orderly and got more and more chaotic over time.
7
By investing energy, you can create order and clean it up.
8
This is what living things do.
9
But what is life?
10
Every living thing on this planet is made of cells.
11
Basically, a cell is a protein -based robot too small to feel or experience anything.
12
It has the properties we just assigned to life.
13
It has a wall that separates it from the surroundings creating order.
14
It regulates itself and maintains a constant state.
15
It eats stuff to stay alive, it grows and develops, it reacts to the environment, and it's subject to evolution,
16
and it makes more of itself.
17
But of all the stuff that makes up a cell, no part is alive.
18
Stuff reacts chemically with other stuff, forming reactions that start other reactions, which start other reactions.
19
In a single cell, every second, several million chemical reactions take place, forming a complex orchestra.
20
A cell can build several thousand types of protein, some very simple, some complex micromachines.
21
Imagine driving a car at 100 km an hour
22
while constantly rebuilding every single part of it with stuff you collect from the street.
23
That is what cells do.
24
But no part of the cell is alive, everything is dead matter moved by the laws of the universe.
25
So is life the aggregate of all these reaction processes that are taking place?
26
Eventually, every living thing will die.
27
The goal of the whole process is to prevent this by producing new entities.
28
And by this, we mean DNA.
29
Life is, in a way, just a lot of stuff that carries genetic information around.
30
Every living thing is subject to evolution, and the DNA that develops the best living thing around it will stay in the game.
31
So, is DNA life then?
32
If you take DNA out of its hull, it certainly is a very complex molecule, but it can't do anything by itself.
33
This is where viruses make everything more complicated.
34
They are basically strings of RNA or DNA in a small hull and need cells to do something.
35
We're not sure if they count as living or dead.
36
And still, there are 225 million cubic meters of viruses on Earth.
37
They don't seem to care what we think of them.
38
There are even viruses that invade dead cells and reanimate them so they can be a host for them, which blurs the line even more. Or mitochondria.
39
They are the power plants of most complex cells and were previously free -living bacteria that entered a partnership with bigger cells.
40
They still have their own DNA and can multiply on their own, but they are not alive anymore they are dead
41
so they traded their own life for the survival of their DNA
42
which means living things can evolve into dead things as long as it's beneficial to their genetic code
43
so maybe life is information that manages to ensure its continued existence
44
but what about AI artificial intelligence by our most common definitions we are very close to creating artificial life in computers
45
It's just a question of time before the technology we build gets there.
46
And this is not science fiction either.
47
There are a lot of smart people actively working on this.
48
You could already argue that computer viruses are alive.
49
Hmm, okay, so what is life then?
50
Things?
51
Processes?
52
DNA?
53
Information?
54
This got confusing very fast.
55
One thing is for sure, the idea that life is fundamentally different from non -living things
56
because they contain some non -physical element or are governed by different principles than inanimate objects turns out to be wrong.
57
Before Charles Darwin, humans drew a line between themselves and the rest of living things.
58
There was something magical about us that made us special.
59
Once we had to accept we are, like every living being, a product of evolution, we drew a different line.
60
But the more we learn about what computers can do and how life works, the closer we get to creating the first machine that fits our description of life,
61
the more our image of ourselves is in danger again.
62
And this will happen sooner or later.
63
and here's another question for you
64
if everything in the universe is made of the same stuff does this mean everything in the universe is dead
65
or that everything in the universe is alive
66
that it's just a question of complexity does this mean we can never die
67
because we were never alive in the first place is life
68
and death an irrelevant question
69
and we haven't noticed it yet is it possible we are
70
much more part of the universe around us than we thought
71
don't look at us we We don't have any answers for you, just questions for you to think about.
72
After all, it's thinking about questions like this that makes us feel alive and gives us some comfort.

- 0.75배속으로 한 문장씩 섀도잉을 시작하고, 익숙해지면 보통 속도로 돌아갑니다.
- 자신의 목소리를 녹음해 원본과 비교하고, virus, artificial, react 같은 단어에 특히 주의합니다.
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.
