Music What do smoke detectors,

emergency lights, and nuclear power all have in common?
3
Radiation.
4
But what exactly is radiation?
5
Thanks to high school science class, most of us have heard about radiation.
6
But many of us may not know exactly what it is.
7
I'm Julie, and I work for the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission.
8
Simply put, radiation is the release of energy in the form of moving waves or streams of particles.
9
This energy can be low -level, like microwaves and cell phones, or high -level, like x -rays or cosmic rays from outer space.
10
These are known as non -ionizing and ionizing radiation.
11
But if we really want to understand radiation, we need to go inside the tiny world of the atom.
12
Remember that high school science class?
13
Atoms are the microscopic building blocks of all matter in the universe.
14
Everything around us is made up of atoms, from the largest galaxies to our own bodies.
15
The center of the atom is called the nucleus.
16
That's where the word nuclear comes from.
17
There is a tremendous amount of energy inside.
18
The nucleus of an atom is made up of two particles, protons, which carry a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no charge.
19
Outside the nucleus are electrons, which carry a negative charge the attraction of these negative electrons to the positive nucleus is what keeps the atom together.
20
Now, every element in the periodic table has a specific number of protons and neutrons, but sometimes an atom will have too many or too few neutrons.
21
When this happens, it becomes unstable or radioactive.
22
An unstable atom is called a radioisotope.
23
For example, two extra neutrons in a hydrogen atom creates the radioisotope tritium.
24
That's the stuff that helps make exit lights glow in the dark.
25
Radioactive atoms want to become stable again, so they release energy until they get back to a balanced state.
26
This process is known as radioactive decay, and there are three main types, alpha, beta, and gamma.
27
Alpha particles are heavy and travel small distances.
28
Beta particles are lighter and travel further.
29
And gamma radiation is actually a wave, and it travels the farthest of all.
30
The time it takes for half of the radioactive atoms of a radioisotope to decay is called a half -life.
31
Half -lives can range from a fraction of a second to billions of years.
32
Let me give you an example of how half -lives come into play in nuclear medicine.
33
Doctors inject patients with the radioisotope Technetium -99M, which emits gamma radiation.
34
A gamma camera can then take pictures of the patient's insides to help with the diagnosis.
35
The relatively short half -life of six hours for this radioisotope makes it ideal for these types types of tests.
36
Let's pretend these jelly beans are the nuclei of TEC -99M.
37
After one half -life, half the atoms still in the body remain unstable or radioactive.
38
After two half -lives, one quarter of the atoms remain radioactive.
39
After three half -lives, well, you get the idea.
40
After 24 hours, almost all the radioactivity is gone, thanks to radioactive of decay and the body's natural, shall we say, processing?
41
And that ends our science class on radiation.
42
Congratulations, you passed.
43
Now for the bonus question.
44
Can you tell me who keeps an eye on the nuclear sector in Canada?
45
That would be us, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission.
46
We regulate the use of nuclear substances and materials and ensure that all nuclear materials are used for peaceful purposes.
47
We also work to protect your health and safety, as well as that of the environment.
48
The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission.
49

이 레슨에 대해
"What is radiation?"으로 쉐도잉 기법을 사용해 영어를 연습합니다.
매일 15~30분 꾸준히 연습하면 IELTS 스피킹에 대한 자신감이 길러집니다.
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.
