【TED-Ed】你愛睡覺嗎?睡好覺的好處(The benefits of a good nights sleep)影片簡介你總是喜歡在考試前一晚徹夜K書嗎?總覺得前一晚不睡覺把記憶留住才考得好嗎?其實真正有效的記憶,是讀完書後好好睡一覺呢!讓 Shai Marcu 用完整的邏輯、清楚的論述,幫你破除這些迷思!
1 be better off0:30 better 本身就是 good 的二級比較級,所以是更好的意思。be better off 指的是比以前環境更富裕、更快樂、生活情況更好或者是有錢人,而在影片中 you might be better off closing the books, putting away the music 的 be better off 指的則是會更好的意思,也就是 be in a better situation。 情況會更好 You will be better off once you’ve found out the truth. 有錢人 People are angry with the new law for it seems to be protecting the better off. well off 這個詞也可以用來表示富裕 Her parents are well off. be better off 的反義詞則是 be worse off,也就是比以前更窮、 更不愉、快更不健康。 Kids tend to be worse off when they first transfer to a new school. 跟 off 有關的片語還有 come off 成功,或是達到預期效果: The novel didn’t quite come off. cut off 中斷 Her mother cut off her daily allowance. drop off 打瞌睡(也等於 doze off) I accidentally dropped off and missed half of the class. 2 vital0:54 當你想說一件事很重要的時候,除了 this is important 以外,你還可以說 this is vital。vital跟important 都是表達重要的意思,但因為 vital 前面的 vita 指的是生命的意思,事關重大,重要程度又超過了important。以後如果上班遲到要跟老闆找藉口,就告訴老闆你有很 vital 的事情吧! It is vital for me to get the full scholarship when I study abroad. 我們來看看除了vital 還有哪些字是表示重要的吧 ! important It is important to wash your hand before eating. crucial It is crucial to have at least 6 hours of sleep every day. significant There is a significant change of the policy in the company. essential The love of parents is essential to the child. 3 impulse03:59 im 通常是指「不」但這裡則是「更加的」, pulse 則是「脈搏」。 impulse 和在一起,就是脈搏跳得很快——也就是指衝動。 I bought a cute dog on an impulse. 類似的字有 urge 迫切想要 I’ve been having the urge to travel ever since the winter break starts. **同場加映 【TED】計劃好的事總是被耽誤?來談談「自制力」Self Control ![]() 4 anterior4:26 字首 ante 是「前」的意思,anterior 則是前面的、前部的或者是以前的意思 。在影片中 in the anterior part of the hippocampus 則是採用前端的意思。 The anterior part of the apple is starting to rot. 跟 ante- 有關的字還有 antecedent to 前事 This story is antecedent to my birth. antenatal 產前 It is vital for the mother to have antenatal check-ups before giving birth to the baby. 5 sleep on it5:09 當你被問到一個你還需要思考的問題的時候你會怎麼說呢?Let me think about it 意思是讓我思考一下,但是除了這句話我們還可以說 Let me sleep on it,也就是考慮一下的意思。而影片中的 sleep on it 則是適用了字面上的雙關,就是希望你能先睡一下,隔天再解決。 考慮一下 A: Mom, can I buy that beautiful dress ? 除了 sleep on it 其他相似的詞還有 think about I will think about which film we should watch. consider I am considering moving to England. take account of Have you taken account of possible ways to celebrate her birthday? ponder of/over She is pondering over what to do next. give thought to I will call you once I give some thought 當我通盤考慮完這個計畫後,我會再打給你。 其他跟 sleep 有關的片語也有很多像是: sleep like log 睡的跟木頭一樣,一動也不動 sleep like a baby 睡得很甜 sleep in 不早起、睡到自然醒 oversleep 睡過頭 do something in one’s sleep 在睡覺時也能做到,指非常熟練的事 let the sleeping dog lie 不要去惹正在睡覺的狗(否則你會被咬);意指別招惹不必要的麻煩 sleeping giant 沉睡的巨人;指有潛力的人 **同場加映 睡覺好像很重要?不過我們到底為什麼要睡覺! (Why Do We Have To Sleep?) ![]() 很多人喜歡在考試前做所謂的「考前衝刺」,在漫畫中也常常出現考前衝刺隔天考出好成績的橋段。但其實真正有效的讀書方式,應該是在平常就充分學習,並且妥善利用睡前時間。在睡前好好學習,把學習的記憶留在腦中後,就讓自己充分睡眠吧!平時不努力,臨時抱佛腳可是不行的喔! 所以最有效的英文學習方法,就是每天睡前好好看一段VoiceTube 的影片,然後上 pronunciation challenge 做完你的每日口說挑戰!還在等什麼?快點一起來睡眠學英文吧! *Pronunciation Challenge 每日口說挑戰從這部影片節錄一句英文,配上主持人詳細的講解,讓你輕鬆搞懂英文發音! ![]() 影片學習單字重點 |
