1
Hey there, welcome to Life Noggin.
2
The brain is a pretty cool organ, but sometimes it can fail us, like when we forget someone's name or blank on a test.
3
But how can someone just forget something like that?
4
Well, to start off, I want you to imagine what a penny looks like.
5
You're probably imagining Abraham Lincoln looking off to the right and that the coin is copper.
6
But you probably didn't recall the phrase above the Lincoln Memorial on the back of the penny.
7
If you did, congrats.
8
But the reason we may have not remembered every single aspect of the coin is because, frankly, it doesn't matter.
9
All we need to know is how to distinguish a penny from any other coin
10
so we only remember the important parts and store them in our long-term memory.
11
All of the small details of any experience, like you watching this video for example, are combined into one event in your brain's hippocampus.
12
You are essentially a network of neurons that records the association linked to the memory.
13
And any of those associations, like hearing the name Blacko, can bring back that memory.
14
But problems arise when there is more than one memory associated with a given cue.
15
If you've ever met someone who looks like an old friend, it may be difficult to remember this new person's name, because that face already has some other meaning to you, and the memories are interfering with each other.
16
Decay theory states that a memory slowly fades over time if it's not rehearsed often.
17
So if you do not frequently think about something, you'll forget it.
18
It makes sense, but you also have to be paying attention in the first place
19
if you ever want to recall that information.
20
So what is something that you always forget?
21
Did.. did you forget it?
22
I'm terrible with birthdays, but luckily Facebook is there to save the day.
23
Speaking of which, if you want to, you can follow me on there.
24
As usual, I'll be answering a new question every Thursday, so ask anything you want to know in the comments or on Facebook and Twitter.
25
I'm Blocko, this has been Life Noggin, don't forget to keep on thinking.

背景與背景
在這段影片中,講述者探討了人類大腦的記憶機制,並解釋了我們為什麼會忘記事情。影片通過生動的例子,讓我們意識到記憶的過程是如何工作的,包括我們如何儲存重要資訊以及遺忘的原因。這為我們在學習英語及其他語言時,理解記憶的運作提供了重要的背景資訊。對於正在進行雅思口語練習的學習者來說,這段內容不僅有趣,而且切合實際,幫助他們認識到記憶與語言學習之間的關係。
日常交流中的五個常用短語
- 我想不起他的名字。 - 用於表達遺忘某人姓名的情況。
- 時間久了我就會忘記。 - 運用在談論記憶衰退的情況。
- 我記得那件事,但細節不太清楚。 - 用於澄清記得某個事情,但細節模糊的情況。
- 我需要經常複習才能記住。 - 強調複習的重要性。
- 這讓我想起了我的老朋友。 - 適合提及與某人相關聯的回憶時使用。
逐步跟讀指南
為提升你的英語口語能力,可以使用以下方法進行影子跟讀練習,尤其是通過「英語影子跟讀」或「shadow speech」的方式執行。這不僅能增強發音,還能幫助你記住重要的短語和表達:
- 聽:首先,完整聽一遍影片,關注講述者的語調和情感表達。
- 慢速跟讀:接下來,選擇一小段音訊,降低速度並嘗試模仿講述者的發音和語調。
- 重複跟讀:從影片中提取短句,反覆練習,確保掌握髮音與語調。
- 記錄進步:可以錄音並與原影片對比,以瞭解自己的發音與表達上的差異。
- 實用練習:在日常對話中運用剛才學到的短語,增強記憶與反應力。
使用這種影子跟讀的方法,可以顯著提高你的英語表達能力,同時加深對記憶過程的理解,確保你在雅思考試或日常交流中,能夠流利而自信地表達自己。記得多加練習,像我們在shadowing site上所提倡的,持續進行「shadowing」的過程將對你的進步至關重要。
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 |
|---|---|
| 現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事 | you've ever met · has been |
| 用 “might / may” 表可能 might/may + 動詞 — 有可能但不確定的事 | may have · may be |
| 現在進行時 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在發生的事 | You're probably imagining · are interfering |
| “will” 表將來 will + 動詞 — 決定、承諾或預測 | you'll forget · I'll be |
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。
