Hey little kitty, heard from your teacher that you're not joining in the upcoming quiz.
2
Yeah, kitty doesn't win, luck isn't on kitty's side.
3
Ah, but what if I told you that luck isn't just random chance, there are secrets to it,
4
But you know, secrets that can boost your chances of winning in all sorts of situations.
5
Really?
6
How?
7
Oh, buckle up Kitty, because I'm about to spill the secrets of luck by answering a lucky question.
8
How to get lucky according to science.
9
Zoom in!
10
Have you ever wondered why some people seem to have a mid-ass touch while others can't catch a break?
11
To find the answer, psychologist Richard Weissman spent decades researching the phenomenon
12
and concluded that luck isn't just a roll of the cosmic dice, but is influenced by our thoughts and behavior.
13
In his book, The Luck Factor, Wiseman revealed that people can create their own good fortune through our four basic principles.
14
Creating and noticing chance opportunities,
15
listening to intuition, creating self-fulfilling prophecies via positive expectations and adopting a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.
16
Let's examine them one by one.
17
To validate his first principle of noticing chance opportunities,
18
Wiseman surveyed 400 individuals, asking if they considered themselves lucky or unlucky.
19
Then, he distributed newspapers to all participants and instructed them to count the photographs.
20
Surprisingly, the unlucky group typically took about 2 minutes to count, while the lucky group finished almost instantly.
21
Why?
22
Because there was a clear message on the second page of the newspaper stating, Stop counting!
23
There are 43 photographs in this newspaper, occupying half the page and presented in large font.
24
The spiders prominence, unlucky participants often overlooked it, while lucky ones tended to spot it easily.
25
In another test, people were asked to watch a dot moving in the middle of a computer screen.
26
Sometimes, big dots would suddenly appear on the screen sides.
27
Almost everyone noticed these big dots.
28
Then the test was repeated with a different group,
29
promising them a lot of money for the same task, making them anxious.
30
Consequently, they noticed the large dots less often,
31
demonstrating that anxiety disrupts our ability to notice unexpected opportunities.
32
The experiments also revealed that lucky people listen to their intuition and trust their gut feeling more.
33
They believe that their intuition is a valuable source of information
34
and are more likely to act on their intuitive hunches leading to unexpected success.
35
Another key principle of luck is creating self-fulfilling prophecies via positive expectations.
36
Lucky people expect good things to happen and maintain a positive attitude which can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
37
They are more likely to see the positive aspects of a situation leading to increased motivation
38
and a greater willingness to take risk ultimately resulting in unexpected success.
39
Finally, lucky people adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.
40
They are more likely to see the positive aspects of a situation even when things go wrong.
41
They bounce back from setbacks and remain resilient in the face of adversity, ultimately leading to unexpected success.
42
In short, luck isn't just luck.
43
It's something we can make happen by spotting opportunities,
44
Trusting our instincts, staying positive and bouncing back from tough times.
45
We can create our own luck and bring more happiness and success into our lives.
46
Trivia Time!
47
Did you know that in many cultures including Irish and Celtic folklore,
48
finding a four leaf clover is said to bring good luck?
49
The chances of finding one are about one in ten thousand.
50
Making it a rare and lucky find indeed.
51
Sketching time!
52
Today's sketch of the day goes to Chloe.
53
Hope you felt lucky today.
54
Until next time, it's me, Dr. Binox, Zooming out!
55
Oh, the upcoming quiz is cancelled!
56
No!
57
That's good luck!
58
Never mind!
本课内容概述
在这一节课中，学习者将练习如何根据科学理解“运气”的概念。通过分析心理学家的研究，我们将探讨如何通过我们的思维和行为来创造好运。非常适合希望提高其实用英语口语表达的学习者们，拥抱积极态度、信任直觉，识别幸运机会，为自己的生活带来更多成功和快乐。

练习技巧
为了更好地进行口语练习，建议学习者使用 shadowspeak 的方法，在课堂内容中找到角色与叙述的自然语调。视频中的说话速度适中，适合初学者逐句模仿。可以反复播放特定段落，专注于声调和情感渲染。在观看时，专注聆听每个单词，尝试尽量做到与讲者同步，达到 shadow speech 的效果。此外，录制自己的声音与视频进行对比，帮助识别自己在发音和流利度上的进步。
为了更好地理解科学如何与运气相结合，学习者可以彼此讨论各自认为的幸运机会或过往经历。这样不仅能提高口语表达能力，还有助于建立积极自信的心态。在充分练习后，请尝试将所学的词汇应用到雅思口语练习中，提升整体的表达质量和流利度。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
