第1557期:What does a dog mean when it wags its tail?

英语每日一听 | 每天少于5分钟 ·

2022/08/23

We all know what a dog means when it wags its tail – it means they’re happy, right? Well, maybe not according to leading animal psychologists who analyse what a dog may be or may not be feeling. There may be more of a tale in the movements of a dog’s tail than most of us think.我们都知道狗摇尾巴意味着什么——这意味着它们很高兴，对吧？好吧，也许不是根据分析狗可能是或可能不是感觉的主要动物心理学家的说法。狗尾巴的运动可能比我们大多数人想象的更多。Most of us agree that it would probably make life whole lot easier and fun if dogs could actually converse rather than

第1556期:Do we all see the same colour?

英语每日一听 | 每天少于5分钟 ·

2022/08/22

Have you ever wondered if you see the same colours as other people? Most people know what blue is when they see it. It’s the colour of sea, sky and sapphires. They see the colour and call it ‘blue’ because they were taught the word and associated it with what they saw. But how do you know what you see as blue isn’t someone else’s red, and vice versa?你有没有想过你是否看到和其他人一样的颜色？大多数人一看到蓝色就知道它是什么。它是大海、天空和蓝宝石的颜色。他们看到颜色并将其称为“蓝色”，因为他们被教导了这个词并将其与他们所看到的相关联。但是你怎么知道你看到的蓝色不是别人的红色，反之亦然？The ability

2022/08/21

Have you ever watched one of the many TV shows set during the apocalypse - a dystopian future where life as we know it is over and people are only focussed on survival? If it’s not zombies, it’s viruses or natural disasters. One thing that seems to be a quintessential part of these series is survivors searching for food and resources. Is that why people stockpile food when things go

2022/08/20

You can’t cross the same river twice, the popular saying goes. This wisdom reminds us that everything changes - expecting to relive your bygone days of success in the same way is unrealistic. But, apparently, this doesn’t apply to music. Over the last decade or so, for one reason or another, a number of high-profile bands have decided to stop resting on their laurels and have reunited. But

Do you sometimes find yourself drawing random patterns and designs during meetings and lectures? Some people believe it shows you aren’t listening or paying attention. However, there are studies which claim the opposite, and that doodling might actually be beneficial.您有时会发现自己在会议和讲座中随意绘制图案和设计吗？有些人认为这表明你没有倾听或注意。然而，也有研究声称相反，涂鸦实际上可能是有益的。Doodling seems to be ubiquitous. In the past it was seen as a mindless activity and a product of the absentminded. However, in 2016, an article on

第1552期:Why leap years aren’t every 4 years

英语每日一听 | 每天少于5分钟 ·

2022/08/18

2020 is a leap year, and as we all know leap years happen every four years, right? Wrong. That extra day in February is designed to keep the Earth in sync with the astrological or seasonal year. But, what you might not realise is that the maths isn’t that simple and occasionally we have to wait eight years.2020年是闰年，众所周知，闰年每四年发生一次，对吧？错误的。2 月额外的一天旨在使地球与占星术或季节年保持同步。但是，您可能没有意识到数学并不是那么简单，有时我们不得不等待八年。The method behind calculating when leap years occur might be a bit more complicated

2022/08/17

For me, it was bacon. There I was, standing in the streets of Medellin, Colombia, looking hungrily at a delicious empanada. The sign read 'queso y tocino'. Because I'd got my tongue round some essential Spanish vocabulary, I knew that 'queso' was cheese. But 'tocino'? I typed it into my smartphone translation app. What came back? 'Tocino'. I later learned that means 'bacon' in the local lingo.对我来说，这是培根。我站在哥伦比亚麦德林的街道上，饥肠辘辘地看着美味的肉馅卷饼。牌子上写着“queso y

If you’re in a job performing tedious tasks, you might think that a robot could do the work instead. But perhaps we underestimate how much technology already helps with the activities that we would otherwise have to do. And as artificial intelligence progresses we might find it replaces us in the workplace altogether.如果您的工作是执行繁琐的任务，您可能会认为机器人可以代替您完成这项工作。但也许我们低估了技术已经在多大程度上帮助了我们原本必须做的活动。随着人工智能的进步，我们可能会发现它在工作场所完全取代了我们。For now, robotic technology is providing a helping hand for

One of the problems damaging our planet is the number of things we throw away. Rubbish of all kinds is piling up in landfill and polluting our rivers and oceans. A more recent addition to the list of things we chuck away is e-waste – electronic items that are broken and not recycled. Now solutions are being found to give this stuff a new life.破坏我们星球的问题之一是我们扔掉的东西的数量。各种垃圾堆积在垃圾填埋场，污染着我们的河流和海洋。我们扔掉的东西清单中最近增加的一项是电子垃圾——损坏且未回收的电子产品。现在正在寻找解决方案来赋予这些东西新的生命。Many millions of tonnes of

2022/08/14

Have you ever eaten kosher food? That's food which conforms to the Jewish dietary regulations of kashrut. These regulations forbid consuming pork or shellfish of any kind, for example. Meat from other animals, such as cows and lamb, are OK provided restrictions are met. But they must be slaughtered according to set guidelines. All kosher rulings are overseen by trained rabbis from a kosher certification agency. They inspect, uphold and grant rights to label a food kosher

How are you feeling today? Often when we ask people that question, they reply ‘not bad’, or ‘could be worse’. But what would make us feel ‘perfect’? Maybe we could live better by being healthier, less stressed, more motivated – but how?你今天感觉如何？通常当我们问人们这个问题时，他们会回答“还不错”，或者“可能会更糟”。但是什么会让我们感觉“完美”呢？也许我们可以通过变得更健康、压力更小、更有动力来生活得更好——但是如何呢？Of course there are many remedies for improving our mental health, but sometimes there are small and simple solutions to help improve our wellbeing

2022/08/12

Grimy coffee cups, dirty clothes all over the floor and uninvited guests – and they're not even yours! These are the joys of flatsharing. So why do we do it? Well, for many, buying a house or flat is just too expensive. In fact, according to the Guardian, the total amount of rent paid by tenants in Britain in 2017 rose to more than £50 billion – more than double the level of ten years prior. And for those who do, many choose to share the place with strangers to save money. You

There’s no place like home. It’s the place where we’re surrounded by our possessions and creature comforts. We purchase things to give our homes a personal touch and create a certain ambience. And one thing we’re buying more of is houseplants. But are these ‘living’ additions to our homes good for us and the environment?金窝银窝不如自己家里的狗窝。这是我们被我们的财产和物质享受所包围的地方。我们购买东西是为了给我们的家带来个人风格并营造一定的氛围。我们购买更多的一件事是室内植物。但是，这些为我们家增添的“生机”对我们和环境有好处吗？Houseplants, also known as pot plants, have

It's the most popular drink worldwide. According to the British Coffee Association, approximately two billion cups of coffee are consumed every day. But after the beans have been picked, roasted and brewed, the grounds are often disposed of as waste. With the environment and resource consumption such hot topics at the moment, wouldn't it be great if we could reuse this waste to make something useful?

What did you want to be when you were growing up? A doctor, an engineer - or maybe a footballer or actor?

But how realistic was that?你长大后想成为什么样的人？医生、工程师——或者可能是足球运动员或演员？我们都为自己的未来制定了宏伟的计划，并相信有一份梦想的工作在等着我们——一份薪水高、工作满意度高的工作。但这有多现实？Today, in the UK at least, young people are being warned that some of their career hopes and dreams don’t

Have you ever woken up with a sore throat and blocked nose and wondered if you should take the day off work? Some of us just soldier on, hoping the office environment and banter with work colleagues will perk us up. Others will make a hot drink, return to bed and have a ‘duvet day’. But what is the right approach to take?您是否曾经因喉咙痛和鼻塞而醒来，想知道您是否应该请假一天？我们中的一些人只是坚持下去，希望办公环境和与同事的玩笑能让我们振作起来。其他人会做一杯热饮，回到床上，度过一个“羽绒被日”。但正确的做法是什么？People’s attitude to illness and when to take time off work

If you go to work, you’re probably familiar with the routine of travelling to the office, hunting for an available desk, completing your tasks and then enduring your commute home. In many ways, it seems like an outdated working practice. And maybe that’s why more and more of us are now choosing to work from home.如果你去上班，你可能很熟悉去办公室旅行、寻找可用办公桌、完成任务然后通勤回家的例行公事。在许多方面，这似乎是一种过时的工作方式。也许这就是我们越来越多的人现在选择在家工作的原因。There are, of course, many reasons for remote working, as it is also called.

It's a touchy subject. Talking socially about money can make people feel uncomfortable. But at work, have a conversation about how much people earn, and things can not only get awkward, but, in some cases, it can get you sacked.这是一个敏感的话题。在社交场合谈论金钱会让人们感到不舒服。但是在工作中，谈论人们挣多少钱，事情不仅会变得尴尬，而且在某些情况下，它可能会让你被解雇。According to a survey by the Trades Union Congress, 1 in 5 workers "have been told they can’t talk about their pay at work".

Yawning is something we all do – maybe because we’re bored carrying out tedious tasks or because we’re tired. Sometimes, just seeing other people yawn can set you off. But is this biological function really contagious, and why do we do it in the first place?打哈欠是我们所有人都会做的事情——也许是因为我们厌倦了执行乏味的任务，或者是因为我们累了。有时，仅仅看到别人打哈欠就会让你反感。但是这种生物学功能真的具有传染性吗？我们为什么要这样做呢？Many of us think we open our mouths when we yawn to take in more oxygen, but in fact it appears there is no clear biological reason
