1
Ahem.
2
Good morning, everyone.
3
Today we are going to learn about the periodic table.
4
Think of it as a map of all known elements.
5
Just like a map helps you find places, the periodic table helps scientists organize the building blocks of matter.
6
Let's get started.
7
Let's begin with a simple comparison.
8
The English language has only 26 letters.
9
Yet, those 26 letters can create millions of words and sentences.
10
Nature is very similar.
11
About 118 elements combine to create everything around us.
12
So where can we find all these elements?
13
We can find them in the periodic table.
14
Let's begin with our learning objectives.
15
By the end of this lesson, you will understand what the periodic table is.
16
You will learn about atomic number and atomic mass.
17
You will also identify groups and periods.
18
Finally, you will recognize metals, nonmetals, and metalloids.
19
So what is the periodic table?
20
It is a chart that organizes all known elements.
21
Each element has four important pieces of information.
22
Its name, its chemical symbol, its atomic number, and its atomic mass.
23
Now let's look more closely at these numbers.
24
The atomic number is like an ID card.
25
It tells us exactly which element it is.
26
For example, hydrogen has an atomic number of one.
27
Carbon has an atomic number of six.
28
has an atomic number of 1.
29
Carbon has an atomic number of 6.
30
Gold has an atomic number of 79.
31
The atomic mass tells us how heavy an atom is compared with a hydrogen atom.
32
Not all elements are the same.
33
Scientists divide them into three main categories.
34
Metals Metals are usually shiny and conduct electricity well.
35
Nonmetals do not conduct electricity well.
36
Metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
37
Each category has its own unique properties.
38
Now let's learn how to read the periodic table.
39
The horizontal rows are called periods.
40
The vertical columns are called groups.
41
Here is an important idea.
42
Elements in the same group have similar properties.
43
They behave in similar ways during chemical reactions.
44
Let's look at a few examples.
45
Group 1 contains the alkali metals.
46
They are very reactive.
47
Group 17 contains the halogens.
48
They are reactive non-metals.
49
Group 18 contains the noble gases.
50
These elements are very stable and rarely react with other elements.
51
Let's review what we have learned today.
52
The periodic table organizes all known elements.
53
Each element has an atomic number and an atomic mass.
54
The table is arranged into periods and groups.
55
Elements in the same group have similar properties.
56
The periodic table helps scientists understand and compare all known elements.
57
Thank you for listening.

本課的詞彙與口語要點
這節 B1 級別的口語課以影片“Science in English”為素材。 影片中反覆出現的詞有:element, atomic, table, periodic, metals。 這段影片共有 57 個句子、427 個單詞可供跟讀。 講話部分時長為 3:40。 說話人語速平穩,每分鐘約 117 個詞,很適合跟讀。 只有 81% 的單詞屬於英語最常用的 3,000 詞,詞彙難度較高。
影片中的重點詞彙
影片中最難的 15 個單詞,附發音和釋義:
| 單詞 | 發音 | 釋義 |
|---|---|---|
| atomic 形容詞 | /əˈtɑː.mɪk/ | 原子 |
| periodic 形容詞 | /ˌpɪɹiˈɑdɪk/ | 週期的 /週期的 |
| organize 動詞 | /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/ | 組織 /組織 |
| scientist 名詞 | /ˈsaɪəntəst/ | 科學家 /科學家 |
| metalloid 名詞 | /ˈmɛtəlɔɪd/ | 類金屬 /類金屬, 半金屬 /半金屬 |
| atom 名詞 | /ˈætəm/ | 原子 |
| hydrogen 名詞 | /ˈhaɪdɹəd͡ʒ(ə)n/ | 氫 /氫 |
| alkali 名詞 | /ˈæl.kəˌlaɪ/ | 鹼 /鹼 |
| halogen 名詞 | /ˈhæl.ə.d͡ʒən/ | 鹵素 /鹵素, 鹵族 /鹵族 |
| horizontal 形容詞 | /ˌhoɹəˈzɑn.təl/ | 水平, 橫的 /橫的 |
| behave 動詞 | /bɪˈheɪv/ | 為人 /為人 |
| arrange 動詞 | /əˈɹeɪnd͡ʒ/ | 安排, 佈置 /佈置 |
| divide 動詞 | /dɪˈvaɪd/ | 分, 分裂 |
| combine 動詞 | /kəmˈbaɪn/ | 結合 /結合, 組合 /組合 |
| vertical 形容詞 | /ˈvɝ.tɪ.kəl/ | 豎的 /豎的, 垂直 |
值得反覆跟讀的句子
影片中簡短而完整的句子,可以直接用在日常對話裡:
- Let's begin with a simple comparison.
- Let's begin with our learning objectives.
- Let's look at a few examples.
- Let's review what we have learned today.
影片中的語法
說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:
| 結構 | 影片中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的 | is compared · are called · is arranged |
| “will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測 | will understand · will learn · will also identify |
需要注意的發音
- 長單詞——注意重音位置: periodic /ˌpɪɹiˈɑdɪk/, horizontal /ˌhoɹəˈzɑn.təl/
中文母語者容易讀錯的音:
- /v/ — 不要讀成 /w/,上齒輕觸下唇: reactive /ɹiːˈæktɪv/, behave /bɪˈheɪv/, divide /dɪˈvaɪd/, vertical /ˈvɝ.tɪ.kəl/
- 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚,後面不要加母音: atomic /əˈtɑː.mɪk/, periodic /ˌpɪɹiˈɑdɪk/, organize /ˈɔɹɡənaɪz/, scientist /ˈsaɪəntəst/, metalloid /ˈmɛtəlɔɪd/
- /æ/ — 嘴張大,不要讀成 /e/: reactive /ɹiːˈæktɪv/, atom /ˈætəm/, alkali /ˈæl.kəˌlaɪ/, halogen /ˈhæl.ə.d͡ʒən/, react /ɹiːˈækt/
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 atomic, periodic, organize 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。
