1
You know what one of my favorite snacks is?
2
Yogurt!
3
It's creamy and tangy.
4
Tangy means sort of sour and strong tasting, and I think it's really delicious.
5
Sometimes I'll have some yogurt for breakfast, maybe with some granola sprinkled on top, or some fruit mixed in.
6
Or sometimes I'll just have it as a snack!
7
It's so tasty and it's also really good for you!
8
Most yogurt is made from milk.
9
Usually cow's milk, but not always.
10
There's also goat milk yogurt, sheep milk yogurt, and even buffalo milk yogurt.
11
But the ingredient that makes it so thick and creamy, and gives it that tangy taste, is something you might not expect.
12
Bacteria.
13
Surprising, right, Squeaks?
14
Bacteria are super-duper small living things, too small for us to see with our eyes.
15
You might have heard people mention them when they're talking about germs that can make you sick.
16
Just like there are lots of different types of animals and plants, there are also lots of different types of bacteria.
17
And the kinds that we put in milk to make yogurt are actually good for you!
18
Before yogurt makers add this special good bacteria to the milk,
19
they first get rid of any bad bacteria that could make you sick by pasteurizing the milk or heating it up.
20
That kills any bad bacteria that might be hanging around.
21
We do this for all sorts of stuff that's made from milk.
22
Yogurt, of course, and also cheese and butter.
23
Once the yogurt makers get rid of any bad bacteria, it's time to introduce the good bacteria.
24
This is the special stuff that makes yogurt, yogurt!
25
We call them probiotics!
26
We already have some of these bacteria inside our bodies, and they help our stomachs stay healthy.
27
Sometimes it's good to get extra probiotics, like if you have an upset stomach or you are taking certain types of medicines.
28
So the probiotics in yogurt are like a special extra boost.
29
When we add probiotics to milk, they start to eat a type of sugar that's in the milk.
30
And as they eat it, they turn it into something else, an ingredient called lactic acid.
31
That's what makes yogurt so creamy and tangy!
32
There are a bunch of different types of probiotics out there, and they all make yogurt taste a little different.
33
Some yogurts have a really strong flavor, and other yogurts are pretty mild.
34
The type of milk the yogurt is made of affects the flavor, too.
35
Yogurt from a cow will taste different than yogurt from a sheep.
36
You might also have seen yogurts that aren't made from animal milk at all.
37
Maybe they're made from soy milk, or coconut milk, or almond milk.
38
The same kind of probiotics that are added to cow
39
or sheep milk to make yogurt are added to non-dairy milks like soy milk, and that's how they become yogurt, too.
40
But of course, we can put different flavors in the yogurt to give it different tastes, like vanilla or strawberry.
41
Yogurts can also taste different from one another because of another ingredient — sugar.
42
More sugar means the yogurt tastes sweeter.
43
And there's usually more of it in flavored yogurts than in the plain kind.
44
We try not to eat too much sugar, though.
45
And a little bit is okay, but eating a lot of sugar isn't very good for you.
46
You know what, Squeaks?
47
All this yogurt talk is kind of making me hungry.
48
How about a nice fresh bowl of tangy yogurt?
49
We could even add some raspberries on top!
50

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。
