Hey, hey. Hope you're having a wonderful day wherever you are in this world. I'm Ky Wire. This is CNN 10. Happy Friday Eve. I have a lot of interesting stories for you this Thursday, March 26th. But first, some breaking news. Yesterday, a California jury found Meta and YouTube liable on all counts in a case that accused the social media companies of creating an intentionally addictive product. The case centers around a now 20-year-old woman named Kaye and her mother who sued Meta, Google's YouTube, Snap, and Tik Tok, accusing them of intentionally luring her to the platforms as a young teen, saying that caused her to develop mental health problems. This is a landmark case that could set the precedent for a myriad of other lawsuits, but it will also likely change the way young people are able to access and participate in social media going forward. Tomorrow, we will bring you more on the reaction to the verdict and its potential ramifications. To Iran now, where the war with the US and Israel is having major ripple effects on things like businesses and schools, having people stay home in order to save electricity, gas, etc. The ongoing conflict has effectively closed the straight of Hormuz, the key shipping lane through which nearly 20% of the world's daily oil shipments typically pass. Iran previously vowed to attack any vessels that attempted to traverse it, leaving hundreds of ships stranded on both sides of the straight. Earlier this week, however, officials signaled the country was in talks to allow certain vessels to pass safely through the straight. Again, I have to clarify that other states that has nothing to do with this act of aggression against Iran can pass through the straight of Hormos after necessary coordination with Iranians authorities.

As of this taping, it appears a handful of ships have made the trip through the straight. That's according to tracking data CNN has yet to independently verify. But even if shipping partially resumes, the prolonged closure has already wre havoc on global supply chains. Asia, which consumes 80% of the oil that crosses through the strait, has been hit particularly hard. Our Christyl Stout has more on how countries across the region are dealing with this unprecedented crisis.

The Philippines has become the first country in the world to declare a state of national energy emergency thanks to a war thousands of miles away. Long lines snake out of Manila's gas stations, and soaring fuel prices have left some of Manila's Jeep drivers uncertain how long they can stay on the road.

It's all down to the US and Israel's war with Iran, which has closed the Straight of Hormuz to all but a handful of ships.
2:53.68 3:01.12 (7.4s)

Asia is especially vulnerable to the supply shocks that's caused. It consumes more than 80% of the oil that crosses the street.

In South Korea, the president has called for a 12point countrywide energy saving campaign. People are being asked to take shorter showers, charge their phones during the day rather than overnight, and only use their washing machines and vacuum cleaners at weekends.

Fuel shortages have also caused some of Asia's flagship carriers to consider suspending flights while India's textile industry has been impacted. India imports around half of its oil from the Middle East and shortages have started to cause some factories to close or use carbon fuels and some residents to abandon their kitchens.

Pop quiz hot shot. What is the most widely grown crop in the US by acreage?
4:19.84 4:23.60 (3.8s)

Years ago, pesticides exploded in popularity among farmers. A simple chemical application saved crops from insects, rodents, fungi, and in turn revolutionized the way agricultural industries prevent food waste and save money. Well, research over the last 20 years proves many of these chemicals can be harmful to our health. So, organic produce options started to really grow on some consumers as a result. But pesticides are so pervasive in the US food supply, it can be difficult to avoid them. And organic foods might make your grocery bill feel a little hard to swallow. Enter the Dirty Dozen, an annual report that specifies exactly which fruits and veggies retain the most pesticides, even after washing. CNN's medical correspondent Meg Terrell tells us which ones made the list. The new study found that about 3/4 of non-organic produce still had pesticide residues even after washing. We learned three key facts to keep in mind. Some fruits and vegetables carry more pesticides than others.
4:46.40 5:48.40 (62.0s)
16
Strawberries have sort of been at the top of the list for a little while.
5:49.20 5:51.68 (2.5s)
17
That list comes from the Environmental Working Group, which each year uses data from the US Department of Agriculture to figure out which non-organic fresh fruits and veggies have the most pesticide residue left after a quick wash. A lot of these are very tender fruits and vegetables that don't have a hard casing that you might um peel. And they also are very close to the ground or in other ways need a lot of pesticides in order to be grown properly.

I'd love to buy my kids all organic, but that's expensive. So, there is a more affordable way to think about it.
6:19.92 6:25.76 (5.8s)

First, consider what your family enjoys eating. Then, compare that to fruits and vegetables that are high in pesticides.

20
you might want to choose organic for just those.
6:34.32 6:35.76 (1.4s)
21
The EWG also lists the produce with the least pesticide residue.
6:36.56 6:39.92 (3.4s)
22
Looking at the Clean 15, which have nearly 60% of samples with no detectable residues, is a way for consumers to balance that. You know, getting a lot of fruits and vegetables in their diet without compromising on pesticide exposure. No matter what, wash, wash, wash. It doesn't get rid of all the residue, but it helps if you do it right. EWG's Alexis Tempmpkin says special washes have not been shown to help. And even if you got something with a peel, you should still wash it.

Now to some intriguing news from Major League Baseball. Yesterday was opening day, and the Giants and Yankees played in the first ever regular season game with the new automatic ball strike system, aka the Robo Ump. Batters, pitchers, and catchers are allowed to challenge a pitch if they think it was called incorrectly by tapping their head. And tech support is called in to help them make the call. Our Hannah Kaiser gives us an inside look at this striking new tech.
7:07.84 7:33.60 (25.8s)
24
It's baseball's opening day and robo have arrived. Let me explain. After years of extensive testing in the lower levels, she wants to challenge. Major League Baseball is set to debut the automated ball strike system in real regular season big league games.
7:34.40 7:49.04 (14.6s)
25
Oh, but he got clipped.
7:49.84 7:50.34 (0.5s)
26
But we're not going full robot takeover.
7:51.12 7:53.12 (2.0s)
27
Human umpires will still call like normal.
7:53.92 7:55.28 (1.4s)
28
Matteo caught looking. He wants to challenge him.
7:56.08 7:57.28 (1.2s)
29
But this year, if a player disagrees with a call, they can do more than just gripe about it. The batter, pitcher, and catcher can all challenge calls by tapping their head or helmet, but they'll have to do so pretty much instantly and without getting any input from coaches or anybody else in the dugout. Challenge calls will be referred to technology that tracks the path of the ball relative to a two-dimensional strike zone over the center of home plate.
7:58.08 8:19.52 (21.4s)
30
Challenge twice and he's been incorrect twice. It's kind of like those Kzone boxes you've seen on broadcasts at home, but critically way more precise and customized to the exact height of each individual batter. Teams start games with two challenges a piece.
8:20.32 8:34.96 (14.6s)
31
Well, let's see. This is where the drama begins.
8:35.76 8:37.04 (1.3s)
32
And if the challenge is correct and the call is overturned, they'll retain those challenges.
8:37.84 8:41.84 (4.0s)
33
Nicely done.
8:42.64 8:43.44 (0.8s)
34
If the umpire's call is upheld, they'll lose the challenges.
8:44.24 8:46.16 (1.9s)
35
Minnesota has one challenge remaining.
8:46.96 8:48.16 (1.2s)
36
I'd be a little embarrassed.
8:48.96 8:50.40 (1.4s)
37
Because of the extensive testing of this system, we already know a little bit about how some things will play out. For instance, teams are likely to unofficially ban pitchers from challenging any call because, as it turns out, it's hard to be impartial about a pitch you throw.
8:51.20 9:04.40 (13.2s)
38
Catchers are better than batters at challenging. And on the whole, players were correct with their challenge calls about 52% of the time. The challenge just to make sure that the most important calls are correct and without totally giving the game over to robots.
9:05.20 9:19.44 (14.2s)
39
He still doesn't believe it.
9:20.24 9:24.28 (4.0s)

Today's story getting a 10 out of 10 proves beauty is definitely more than skin deep. Students at JFK High School in New York spending time with senior citizens on their day off.

What's your name?

I truly enjoy this.

A day off from school, but still a lesson learned. That kindness never goes out of style. These folks really nailed it. I have a shout out today going to Mr. Emerson and our friends at Otto Peterson School in Scapus, Oregon. Thank you for making us a part of your day.
10:04.48 10:20.16 (15.7s)

Dicas de Prática para Este Vídeo

Para otimizar sua prática de inglês oral com este vídeo, recomendamos a técnica de shadowing. A velocidade da fala neste vídeo varia de moderada a rápida, típica de reportagens de notícias, o que é excelente para desenvolver agilidade na fala. O sotaque é predominantemente General American, ideal para quem busca uma prática de pronúncia padrão.

  • Foco na Velocidade e Ritmo: Tente imitar a velocidade e o ritmo dos apresentadores e repórteres. Eles falam claramente, mas rapidamente, o que é um ótimo desafio para sua fluência em inglês. Pause e repita frases mais complexas ou rápidas.
  • Imitação da Entonação: Preste atenção à entonação e ao "stress" das palavras. Os apresentadores de notícias usam a entonação para enfatizar informações importantes. Isso é crucial para que sua prática de pronúncia soe mais natural.
  • Expansão de Vocabulário Contextual: Como o vídeo abrange múltiplos tópicos, use-o para aprender vocabulário em contexto. Anote palavras ou frases que você não conhece em cada segmento (política, economia, saúde, esportes) e tente usá-las em sentenças próprias.
  • Dificuldade de Tema: Os temas são atuais e informativos, o que pode aumentar um pouco a dificuldade, mas também é uma excelente oportunidade para se familiarizar com a linguagem de notícias e debates complexos, preparando-o para o IELTS speaking. Não hesite em usar legendas em inglês se precisar de apoio inicial.
  • Prática de Paráfrase: Após cada segmento de notícias, tente resumir o que você ouviu com suas próprias palavras. Isso não só reforça a compreensão, mas também ativa seu vocabulário e a capacidade de formulação oral.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.

Como praticar de forma eficaz no ShadowingEnglish

  1. Escolha seu vídeo: Escolha um vídeo do YouTube com inglês claro e natural. TED Talks, BBC News, cenas de filmes, podcasts — todos funcionam bem. Cole a URL na barra de pesquisa.
  2. Ouça primeiro, entenda o contexto: Na primeira vez, mantenha a velocidade em 1x e apenas ouça. Não tente repetir ainda. Concentre-se em entender o significado.
  3. Configure o modo Shadowing:
    • Modo de espera: Escolha +3s ou +5s — após cada frase, o vídeo pausa automaticamente para você repetir.
    • Sinc. legendas: Legendas do YouTube às vezes estão adiantadas ou atrasadas. Use ±100ms para alinhar.
  4. Faça Shadowing em voz alta (a prática principal): Assim que a frase tocar — ou durante a pausa — repita em voz alta, clara e confiante. Imite o ritmo, ênfase, tom e sons conectados do falante.
  5. Aumente o desafio: Quando um trecho ficar confortável, aumente a velocidade para <code>1.25x</code> ou <code>1.5x</code>. Pratique 15-30 minutos por dia para resultados visíveis em poucas semanas.
