Roughly 50% of people will break a bone at some point in their lives.
0:06.33 0:10.55 (4.2s)
2
But whether the cause is as mundane as a slip on the ice or as dramatic as a tightrope-walking accident, broken bones tend to heal the same way.
0:10.71 0:19.81 (9.1s)
3
The human body's 200 plus bones come in many shapes and sizes, referred to by medical professionals as short bones, long bones, flat bones, and the catch-all category of irregular bones.
0:20.35 0:34.53 (14.2s)
4
Despite their differences, bones generally have a rigid structure composed of a protein matrix that’s dotted with bone cells and reinforced with minerals containing calcium.
0:34.99 0:45.25 (10.3s)
5
Inside these stiff exteriors is spongy marrow, containing stem cells that can divide and differentiate into specialized cell types.
0:45.33 0:54.01 (8.7s)
6
Bones are also penetrated by blood vessels and nerves, which relay the searing pain signal associated with the break.
0:54.34 1:01.47 (7.1s)
7
Since these nerves are encased in hard tissue they’re very difficult to study, so we still don't know exactly why broken bones hurt so much.
1:01.97 1:10.90 (8.9s)
8
But we do know that long bones are the most likely to break since they often take the brunt of the impact from a fall.
1:11.07 1:17.07 (6.0s)
9
Whether an accident causes a clean break or a splintering crack, any kind of fracture makes the blood vessels inside the bone rupture, causing internal bleeding and inflammation.
1:17.24 1:27.50 (10.3s)
10
This signals the body to start the first step of the healing process: the inflammatory phase.
1:27.83 1:33.34 (5.5s)
11
For the next week, the body floods the injury site with immune cells which remove damaged tissue and help prepare the site for healthy new tissue to grow.
1:33.88 1:42.43 (8.5s)
12
The cells also release signaling molecules that recruit stem cells to the area.
1:42.77 1:47.14 (4.4s)
13
As they arrive, these stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes.
1:47.39 1:51.27 (3.9s)
14
These cells use the clotted blood at the break site as a scaffold to build callus made of cartilage.
1:51.40 1:57.16 (5.8s)
15
Cartilage can grow very quickly, making it a useful temporary patch.
1:57.49 2:01.66 (4.2s)
16
But it’s much weaker than bone, so over the following weeks, some of the chondrocytes and stem cells develop into special bone-building cells called osteoblasts that can create a stronger bony callus.
2:01.78 2:13.50 (11.7s)
17
Once the bony callus is complete, the remodeling phase can begin.
2:13.80 2:17.59 (3.8s)
18
Over the next few months, another type of cell eats away at the bony callus as osteoblasts lay down new bone tissue.
2:18.13 2:25.31 (7.2s)
19
This phase is where most of the bone healing happens, restoring the injury site to its previous shape.
2:25.52 2:30.90 (5.4s)
20
But the healing timeline varies widely depending on a patient's diet, how much rest they’re getting, and how messy the break is.
2:31.44 2:38.57 (7.1s)
21
A clean break generally heals the fastest, and doctors use casts and splints to keep bones aligned as they heal.
2:38.91 2:45.20 (6.3s)
22
But if the bone has been splintered into tiny fragments and significantly displaced, surgery may be required to put those pieces back in place.
2:45.49 2:53.21 (7.7s)
23
And if a bone does heal while misaligned, a surgeon would need to refracture it, realign it, and then use pins, plates, or screws to hold the bone together.
2:53.54 3:03.14 (9.6s)
24
When the remodelling phase is over, there may be a slight bump at the fracture site, but this typically resolves over time, leaving the bone just as strong as it was before.
3:03.68 3:13.02 (9.3s)
25
Naturally, the strength of our bones varies from person to person.
3:13.94 3:17.53 (3.6s)
26
And older populations are more likely to break their bones in the first place, since bone density tends to decrease with age.
3:17.53 3:24.33 (6.8s)
27
Researchers are still investigating why this happens, but fortunately, we already know the best way to keep bones strong.
3:24.62 3:30.79 (6.2s)
28
Even when they aren’t healing, bones are constantly remodeling— adjusting their density and strength to the amount of force they’re typically under.
3:31.00 3:38.71 (7.7s)
29
So exercises like walking, running, and weightlifting all stimulate your bones to grow denser.
3:38.80 3:44.26 (5.5s)
30
Just make sure whatever activity you're doing is relatively safe, because there’s nothing humorous about a broken humerus.
3:44.59 3:51.44 (6.8s)

关于本课

本视频探讨了骨折的发生及愈合过程,适合想要提升英语口语能力的学习者。在本课中,学习者将练习与“健康与医学”相关的词汇主题,包括骨骼结构、愈合过程和伤痛体验。同时,本课提供了与医疗场景相关的语法模式和口语表达,让学习者在讨论健康话题时更具信心。

重要词汇和短语

  • break a bone (骨折): 指骨骼因外力作用而发生断裂。
  • healing process (愈合过程): 受伤后的身体修复和恢复的阶段。
  • inflammation (炎症): 身体对伤害的反应,通常伴随肿胀和疼痛。
  • osteoblasts (成骨细胞): 负责新骨形成的细胞。
  • remodeling phase (重塑阶段): 骨头愈合后,恢复其原有形状和强度的过程。
  • cartilage (软骨): 一种比骨头弱的组织,在骨折愈合时起到暂时支撑的作用。

本视频练习技巧

在进行跟读练习时,建议学习者先慢速播放视频,然后逐渐提高语速,以便适应自然的对话节奏。注重拍摄者的发音和重音,这能帮助提高英语流利度和口语表达能力。同时,由于视频内容涉及专业医疗术语,建议在练习之前提前了解这些词汇,以便在跟读时能更好地理解和掌握。可尝试模仿视频中的口音和语调,增强发音练习的效果。在雅思口语考试中,可通过讨论与健康有关的话题来展示你的语言水平,因此本课内容对考试的准备也十分有益。

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。

如何在ShadowingEnglish上有效练习

  1. 选择您的视频: 挑选一段语音清晰、自然的YouTube视频。TED演讲,BBC新闻,电影片段,播客或雅思口语范例都很好。将URL粘贴到搜索栏中。从较短的视频(短于5分钟)以及您真正感兴趣的内容开始——兴趣是最重要的导师。
  2. 先听,理解上下文: 第一次听的时候,将速度保持在1倍速并仅仅倾听。还不要尝试重复。专注于理解其含义,收集新词汇,并注意讲话人如何强调单词,连读声音及使用停顿。
  3. 设置跟读模式:
    • 等待模式:选择 +3s+5s ——在每句话播放完毕后,视频会自动暂停以便您有时间大声重复它。如果您想完全控制并在每次重复后由您自己点击下一步,请选择 手动
    • 字幕同步:YouTube字幕有时会在音频前或后略微出现。使用 ±100ms 使它们完美对齐以助您准确跟读。
  4. 大声跟读(核心练习): 这是真正发生改变的一步。当一个句子播放出来立刻——或在暂停期间——大声、清晰且自信地重复出来。千万不要只是张张嘴:要模仿说话者的准确节奏、重音、音高和连读。力求听上去就像说话者的影子,而不仅是逐字背诵。使用重复功能多次练习同一个句子,直到感觉自然为止。
  5. 提高难度: 当练习段落变得相对舒适后,就去挑战自我。将速度增加至 <code>1.25x</code> 或甚至 <code>1.5x</code> 以训练高速语言反射。或者将等待模式调整为 <code>关闭</code> 以进行连续跟读——这是最进阶同样收益最大的模式。持续的每日15–30分钟的练习将可以在几周内产生可见的效果。
