Cooking a chicken with a particle accelerator?
2
How would that work?
3
First we need a raw chicken.
4
That's easy.
5
Then we need a particle accelerator.
6
So let's put a chicken in it.
7
To avoid collisions between air molecules
8
and beam particles We have to pump out all the air in the beam pipe before we even turn it on.
9
As the air pressure drops to near vacuum Moisture
10
and other molecules vaporize leaving the outer layer of the chicken dried and brittle.
11
Then as we cool down the magnet any water remaining freezes
12
When the beam is turned on magnetic fields focus it to the width of a hair
13
So it only collides with a narrow strand of chicken
14
But it completely obliterates every atom in its way the tremendous energy of the collisions burns the meat around it
15
Or it would if there were any oxygen for it to burn
16
and the space around this hole doesn't stay raw rather it becomes radioactive
17
When we finally pull our chicken out of the accelerator, it's not exactly raw But it's certainly not cooked you can take a bite once it thaws,
18
but we're not fans of food poisoning or radiation poisoning so we can't recommend.

需要注意的發音
說話人用了 3 次縮略和弱讀形式，例如 can't, doesn't, we're。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。
- 長單詞——注意重音位置: accelerator /əkˈsɛl.əˌɹeɪ.tɚ/, obliterate /əˈblɪtəˌɹeɪt/, radioactive /ˌɹeɪdioʊˈæktɪv/
中文母語者容易讀錯的音：
- /v/ — 不要讀成 /w/，上齒輕觸下唇: radioactive /ˌɹeɪdioʊˈæktɪv/, vacuum /ˈvæ.kjuːm/
- 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚，後面不要加母音: collide /kəˈlaɪd/, obliterate /əˈblɪtəˌɹeɪt/, strand /ˈstɹænd/, radioactive /ˌɹeɪdioʊˈæktɪv/, magnet /ˈmæɡ.nɪt/
- /r/ 和 /l/ 的區別: accelerator /əkˈsɛl.əˌɹeɪ.tɚ/, particle /ˈpɑɹtək(ə)l/, brittle /ˈbɹɪtəl/, obliterate /əˈblɪtəˌɹeɪt/
如何用這段影片練習
- 先完整聽一遍影片，不要開口，記下不認識的單詞。
- 先用 0.75 倍速逐句跟讀，熟練之後再回到正常速度。
- 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 accelerator, particle, molecule 這類單詞。
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
