1
Roughly 50% of people will break a bone at some point in their lives.
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.
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.
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.
5
Inside these stiff exteriors is spongy marrow, containing stem cells that can divide and differentiate into specialized cell types.
6
Bones are also penetrated by blood vessels and nerves, which relay the searing pain signal associated with the break.
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.
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.
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.
10
This signals the body to start the first step of the healing process: the inflammatory phase.
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.
12
The cells also release signaling molecules that recruit stem cells to the area.
13
As they arrive, these stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes.
14
These cells use the clotted blood at the break site as a scaffold to build callus made of cartilage.
15
Cartilage can grow very quickly, making it a useful temporary patch.
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.
17
Once the bony callus is complete, the remodeling phase can begin.
18
Over the next few months, another type of cell eats away at the bony callus as osteoblasts lay down new bone tissue.
19
This phase is where most of the bone healing happens, restoring the injury site to its previous shape.
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.
21
A clean break generally heals the fastest, and doctors use casts and splints to keep bones aligned as they heal.
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.
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.
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.
25
Naturally, the strength of our bones varies from person to person.
26
And older populations are more likely to break their bones in the first place, since bone density tends to decrease with age.
27
Researchers are still investigating why this happens, but fortunately, we already know the best way to keep bones strong.
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.
29
So exercises like walking, running, and weightlifting all stimulate your bones to grow denser.
30
Just make sure whatever activity you're doing is relatively safe, because there’s nothing humorous about a broken humerus.

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。
