目标与任务
1.本周继续TED素材,The power of time
2.记录重点句子、词组和单词,并达到脱口而出
3.复习上周素材内容和重点句子
4.在学习过程中,发现没有之前跟老师带的时候读的流利,后来总结了下原因,句子没有按照意群为单位进行熟读。后面调整以单词、意群、句子为方式进行练习,效果提升了很多。
重点句子、词组及单词
1.Let me give you some data to back up that claim.So here's a study of change in people's personal values over time.Here's three values.Everybody here holds all of them,but you probably know that as you grow,as you age,the balance of these values shifts.
back up 支持;over time 随着时间的过去;age vt.成熟、变老;shift vi.变化、移动
2.So how does it do so? 他是怎么做到的呢?
3.And this enabled us to do a really interesting kind of analysis,beacause it allowed us to compare the predictions of people,say,18 years old,to the reports of the people who were 28,and to do that kind of analysis throughout the lifespan.
enabled sb to do sth 事某人做某事;compare vt.对比
4.At every age, from 18 to 68 in our data set, people vastly underestimated how much change they would experience over the next 10 years.We call this the "end of history" illusion.
in our data set 在我们数据库里;vastly adv.极大地,深远的 underestimate vi.低估、看轻; end of history 历史的终结
5.To give you an idea of the magnitude of this effect,you can connect these two lines,and what you see here is that 18-year-olds anticipate changing only as much as 50-year-olds actually do.
magnitude n.大小,量级;connect vt.连接; anticipate vt.期望、预期; actually adv. 实际上
6.Many of you know that psychologists now claim that there are five fundamental dimensions of personality:neuroticism,openness to experience,agreeableness,extraversion,and conscientiousness.
five fundamental dimensions of personality 人格的五个基本维度;neuroticism,神经质性;openness to experience,经验汲取度;agreeableness,协调性;extraversion,外向性;conscientiousness 责任心
