Đang tạo bài học...
1
You had Obama make those comments about the subject of aliens.
2
They're real, but I haven't seen them.
3
They're not being kept in Area 51 unless they hid it from the President of the United States.
4
I think he was joking when he said there are aliens he's just never seen.
5
No, no, no, no, no, no. Obama is scientifically literate.
6
But if you have the aliens and you don't want the President to know, the President's not going to know.
7
So do you believe there's intelligent life in the universe?
8
Well, we have whistleblowers saying we have actual aliens.
9
People testified we have aliens, that we have alien crash parts.
10
So I don't see why they wouldn't be given the size of the universe.
11
- What is the most pressing question that people are asking right now about the universe?
12
And the first thing I wanted to ask is, why are people so interested in going to the moon?
13
- It's geopolitical.
14
China says they're going to the moon, 50 years after we go to the moon, and we all of a sudden decide we want to go to the moon?
15
- Is there an economic upside to it?
16
- No!
17
- Talking about data centers?
18
- No, no, no, no, no, no!
19
I already answered you!
20
I said, we don't want them to go to the moon without us going to the moon.
21
- And there's no laws up there, is there?
22
- Space law is a wild west at this point.
23
It's like, who owns the moon?
24
- Maybe.
25
- Well, they're trying to figure that out.
26
But don't delude yourself into thinking we ever went to the moon for science, then or now.
27
Okay, next.
28
Do you believe that we're in a simulation?
29
I'm whiny about that, and I'll tell you why.
30
And then, can you explain what a black hole is, like, if you get sucked in?
31
Okay, so, you will see the entire future history of the universe unfold.
32
And then, the difference in gravity between your feet and your head gets greater and greater and greater.
33
Eventually, you'll snap into two pieces, likely separated at the base of your spine.
34
And that's not even the worst part.
35
And we'll get to that.
36
you can recall.
37
Has your view of religion changed through all that you've learned about the universe?
38
And what is the point of life?
39
Wow!
40
You asked a good question.
41
So let's get into this.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
