1
Have you ever wondered how plants eat?
2
How they grow with just water and sunlight?
3
Or how they are able to produce oxygen?
4
In today's episode, we'll learn all that and a secret way to make a mini greenhouse.
5
Plants begin as seeds.
6
Inside every seed is a tiny baby plant.
7
When the seed receives water, warmth, and air, it begins to open.
8
We call this germination.
9
The tiny seed enjoys the warmth and water.
10
The seed begins to crack open.
11
Tiny little roots begin to form, and eventually, we'll see a tiny shoot from the surface appear.
12
The roots grow underground and help the plants stay in place.
13
The roots are also used to absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
14
The stem holds the plant upright.
15
It carries water from the roots to the leaves.
16
It also carries food from the leaves to the rest of the plant.
17
A plant does not eat food like people or animals.
18
Instead, they make their own food through a process called photosynthesis.
19
Plants need three main ingredients.
20
Sunlight, water and carbon dioxide from the air.
21
Carbon dioxide is an invisible gas that we breathe out of our bodies.
22
It's also the magic ingredient that makes soda bubbly.
23
The leaves use these ingredients to make a type of sugar that gives the plant energy to grow.
24
As a result of photosynthesis, the plant releases oxygen into the air.
25
Oxygen is very important to us.
26
We use it to breathe.
27
So next time you see some plants or trees, make sure to thank them for making oxygen for us.
28
Another interesting thing about plants is that they're mostly green.
29
This is due to a green material inside the leaves called chlorophyll.
30
Chlorophyll captures energy from the sunlight and helps the plant make food.
31
That is why most leaves appear green.
32
When you put it all together, you get a growing plant.
33
Eventually, this plant will produce flowers, fruit, and new seeds.
34
Those seeds may eventually grow into brand new plants, beginning the plant life cycle again.
35
We need plants and they need us.
36
So to help us grow more plants, I want to show you how to create a mini greenhouse.
37
A greenhouse is a cozy glass house for plants.
38
It lets the warm sunlight in and traps the heat inside making a nice environment for plants to grow.
39
First we'll need a few ingredients.
40
A ziplock bag, a paper towel, water, and the seed we want to grow.
41
We'll want to wrap a wet piece of paper towel and lay the seed in or on it.
42
Place the paper towel and seed inside the ziplock bag and you have yourself a greenhouse.
43
You'll want to make sure not to close the bag completely.
44
And when the roots come out, plant the seed in soil.
45
Thanks for learning with us today.

需要注意的發音
說話人用了 6 次縮略和弱讀形式，例如 we'll, they're, you'll。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。
- “th” 音: breathe /bɹiːð/, warmth /wɔɹmθ/, photosynthesis /ˌfoʊ.toʊˈsɪn.θə.sɪs/
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: capture /ˈkæp.(t)ʃɚ/, germination /ˌdʒɜːɹ.mɪˈneɪ.ʃən/
- 長單詞——注意重音位置: ingredient /ɪnˈɡɹiːdi.ənt/, invisible /ɪnˈvɪzəb(ə)l/, photosynthesis /ˌfoʊ.toʊˈsɪn.θə.sɪs/, germination /ˌdʒɜːɹ.mɪˈneɪ.ʃən/
中文母語者容易讀錯的音：
- /v/ — 不要讀成 /w/，上齒輕觸下唇: adventure /ədˈvɛn.t͡ʃə/, invisible /ɪnˈvɪzəb(ə)l/
- 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚，後面不要加母音: leaf /lif/, sunlight /ˈsʌnˌlaɪt/, greenhouse /ˈɡɹːnˌ(h)aʊs/, ingredient /ɪnˈɡɹiːdi.ənt/, seed /siːd/
- /æ/ — 嘴張大，不要讀成 /e/: capture /ˈkæp.(t)ʃɚ/, crack /kɹæk/, trap /tɹæp/, wrap /ɹæp/, absorb /æbˈsɔɹb/
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。
- 用正常速度逐句跟讀，每句重複到你的節奏與說話人一致為止。
- 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 leaf, oxygen, sunlight 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。
