1
Hi, I'm Diana from Moscow, Russia.
2
I'm 13 years old and my question is do intelligent crashers exist on other planets?
3
I love alien films and I wonder if they really exist.
4
The universe is amazing and vast and we're only just beginning to explore it.
5
But one One of the questions we have always asked is, are we alone?
6
My name is Dr Maggie Adairin-Pocock and I'm a space scientist.
7
And this is a question I've pondered since I was young.
8
Back through time and across the world, we've been exploring the universe.
9
And over the last few hundred years, we've been using telescopes like this here at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London.
10
Eventually we built probes and sent them to virtually all the planets of the solar system.
11
We found water on Mars, we found methane on Saturn's moon Titan, but we haven't found life yet.
12
But now we have the opportunity to look at life beyond our solar system.
13
We live in a galaxy called the Milky Way and it contains approximately 300 billion stars.
14
Each one of these stars is a solar system with planets going around it and now we're trying to find life on these planets.
15
We call them exoplanets.
16
We've only been detecting these exoplanets for about 20-25 years.
17
And so far we've detected around 2,500.
18
But then that asks the question, if there are so many exoplanets out there, what is the probability of finding intelligent life?
19
In the 1960s, a chap called Frank Drake came up with an equation to work out the probability of finding intelligent life out there.
20
It's called the Drake Equation.
21
No, not that Drake.
22
It has seven terms in the equation.
23
And one of those terms is, what's the probability of life occurring on a planet?
24
Well, the only example of life on a planet we have is planet Earth.
25
And we know that for life to occur here, we needed water.
26
So we need to look for water on these exoplanets.
27
And the truth is, we've detected it.
28
We've found water in these exoplanets.
29
So, is there intelligent life out there?
30
Well, the short answer is, we don't know.
31
But as a space scientist, I believe the probability is quite high.
32
With all those stars, galaxies and moons out there, why would life just occur here?
33
So we haven't found intelligent life yet, but maybe you'll be the generation that does.
34
because there's plenty more where that came from.
背景与背景
在这段视频中,一位来自俄罗斯的13岁女孩名叫黛安娜,她提出了关于宇宙中是否存在其他智能生物的问题。问题引发了太空科学家玛吉·阿代林-波扣博士的回答,博士分享了她从小就思考的宇宙探索问题。她简要回顾了人类通过望远镜和探测器探索太阳系的历史,介绍了在火星和土星的卫星上发现水和甲烷的科学成就。此外,博士强调了我们生活在银河系中的数量庞大的恒星和行星,并对寻找地外文明表达了乐观的态度。这段对话融入了科学与好奇心,为英语学习者提供了丰富的语言输入。

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。
