1
What is time?
2
A deceptively simple question, yet it is the key to understanding relativity.
3
It is sort of the reason my hair is going gray.
4
[laughter] When we describe motion, we do so as a function of time, 10 meters per second, 100 miles per hour.
5
But the mathematical description of velocity is moot unless we can define time.
6
Is time universal?
7
In other words, is there an audible tick-tock throughout the galaxy, a master clock, so to speak, forging ahead like Mozart's metronome?
8
The answer my friends is no.
9
Time is not absolute.
10
In fact, for us, the living physicists, the distinction between the past, present, and future is but a stubborn illusion.
11
[music playing] A lot to consider, I know.
12
I know. [laughter] But understanding time is essential to understanding relativity.
13
Now, I want you all to close your eyes.
14
Not to worry, I don't bite.
15
But I am on the lookout for a new pen.
16
[laughter] Go on close your eyes.
17
To truly grasp the idea of time, we must take a step back and ask, what is light?
18
So journey with me to the Sun.
19
Light travels from the Sun to the Earth through space, yes.
20
When I was your age, I wanted to know how can something, light, travel through nothing, space?
21
Let us isolate a light beam and travel alongside it.
22
But let us go faster.
23
You're there with me.
24
Faster. Faster!
25
What is time?
26
[thud] PROFESSOR WEBER: Herr, Einstein, wake up!
27
I wasn't sleeping, sir.
28
I was thinking.
29
Oh, really.
30
About what exactly?
31
The secrets of the cosmos, I suppose.
32
I suggest you think about trigonometry instead, with your eyes open.
33
And sit up!
34
Laws of sines and cosines?
35
c squared equals a squared plus b squared, subtract 2 [inaudible] cosine b.
36
PROFESSOR WEBER: The area of a triangle?
37
STUDENTS: The area equals b squared times a times b over 2 times c.
38
PROFESSOR WEBER: What is the solution [inaudible] differential equation?
39
Herr Einstein, are you still too busy contemplating the secrets of the cosmos to solve this equation?
40
Oh, no sir.
41
I've already solved it.
42
PROFESSOR WEBER: Leave, now.
43
On what offense?
44
PROFESSOR WEBER: Your mere presence spoils the respect of the class for me!
45
That is not an objective reason.
46
Out! [music playing] The natural log of a constant multiplied by x equals the natural log of 1 plus v squared.
47
And since v equals y over x, that gives us the final function, x squared plus y squared minus c x cubed equals 0.
48
And speaking truthfully, sir, your mere presence spoils my respect for the future of Prussian mathematics.
49
Out. [door slamming]

为什么要用这个视频进行口语练习?

在日常英语学习中,成功的关键在于多说、多练。利用这个视频,您可以通过生动的对话与幽默风格提高您的英语口语能力。这段视频探讨了时间的哲学和物理原则,同时又不乏轻松幽默的元素。通过模仿讲者的发音和语调,您可以增强自己的 英语口语练习 技能,特别是适应不同的语境和用词。通过这种方式,您不仅能理解复杂的概念还能够在日常对话中应用。

语法与表达在语境中的运用

视频中使用了多个关键语法结构,这些结构在口语表达中非常常见:

  • Is time universal? - 这个问句的使用反映了如何提出开放性问题,以引导对话深入。
  • What is time? - 这是一个简单而有效的句式,适合用来引入主题。
  • Let us isolate a light beam - 使用“let us”这种表达方式,可以让听众感到亲切并更容易接受接下来的解释。
  • We must take a step back - 这个短语表明在讨论中应当从更广泛的角度考虑问题,非常适合在形成论点时使用。

结合这些表达,通过 shadow speech 的方式进行模仿,能够帮助您更自然地运用这些句式。

常见发音陷阱

在观看视频时,您可能会发现一些发音方面的挑战:

  • “relativity” - 包含多音节的词汇,英语学习者常常会在重音上犯错。
  • “universal” - 注意元音的发音,尤其是 “u”的元音发音。
  • “stubborn” - 这个词在快速讲话中很容易被省略发音,注意每个音节的发音。

通过 看YouTube学英语 并进行 shadow speak,您将能够掌握更地道的发音,从而增强自信。

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。
