23
Health The thyroid gland in the neck controls the metabolic rate by secreting a hormone called thyroxine.
健康 頸部的甲狀腺通過分泌一種叫做甲狀腺素的激素來控制代謝率。
24
If someone has an underactive thyroid, it results in insufficient thyroxine, and thus thus lowering the metabolic rate.
如果一個人甲狀腺功能減退，就會導致甲狀腺素分泌不足，從而降低代謝率。
25
Overactive thyroid produces more thyroxine, resulting in a higher metabolic rate.
甲狀腺機能亢進會分泌更多甲狀腺素，導致代謝率升高。
26
Activity If someone is very active and does heavy work, he or she needs more energy per day than a person who is moderately active.

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。
