第３０課　あえて 1/2

A lot of my students make mistakes in the Past Simple when they're having a conversation. I think this is so unnecessary because it really is simple. To be fluent in English, you need to go back to the simple tenses and learn them really well. Build the foundation of your English speaking on a strong Past Simple and Present Simple foundation. Happy listening!

My client Sara joined our meeting very stressed out; frustration etched on her face. Her new team floundered, lacking direction and motivation. Public speaking made her uncomfortable and really nervous. It was an area she was struggling in. I saw an opportunity. Habit stacking, I suggested, could be the key. Small, daily wins would build confidence. Each morning, Sara would journal her goals, followed by 10 minutes reading a leadership book. During her commute she would listen to leadership podcasts.

At work, the transformation began. Meetings now started with clear objectives and agendas, setting the stage for practicing engaging techniques – eye contact, vocal variety – we had discussed. Each week, a late evening mimicked future challenges as we roleplayed difficult conversations. Between meetings, personalized notes praising contributions or progress toward goals landed in team members' inboxes.

A month in, the shift was undeniable. Projects progressed  efficiently through completion, and surveys reflected a happier, more motivated team. Motivated by her success, Sara, once terrified of public speaking, volunteered for an industry conference presentation. Daily clear communication, bolstered by these additional habits, had woven a tapestry of leadership. Sara's transformation, fueled by consistent improvement, was a testament to the power of habit stacking.

Oggi vediamo la storia della "vespa" il famoso  scooter italiano, brevettato il 23 aprile del 1946, su progetto dell'ingegnere aeronautico Corradino D'Ascanio.


Parte del testo: 
La storia della Vespa comincia nel 1945. È la storia della famiglia Piaggio, ma è anche la storia dell'Italia che rinasce dalla guerra e di un prodotto italiano che conquista il mondo. La Vespa non è solo un mezzo di trasporto, ma è anche uno dei simboli dell'Italia all’estero, uno dei prodotti di design industriale più famosi al mondo al punto di essere esposta nel museo MoMA di New York. Ma facciamo un salto nel tempo. Siamo nel 1945, al termine della seconda guerra mondiale. La fabbrica di aerei militari di Enrico Piaggio a Pontedera, in Toscana, è distrutta e i suoi operai sono disoccupati. Enrico Piaggio ha una grande idea: produrre non più aerei ma un mezzo di trasporto a due ruote piccolo, robusto, semplice ed economico per far ripartire la sua azienda e anche l'economia del Paese. Piaggio chiede all’ingegnere della sua fabbrica, Corradino D’Ascanio, di disegnare il mezzo. Deve essere leggero ma al tempo stesso capace di trasportare persone e qualche bagaglio non troppo ingombrante. Deve essere anche un mezzo adatto alle donne, perché dopo la guerra anche loro lavorano e hanno necessità di spostarsi e di andare in fabbrica o in ufficio. Quando, nel 1946, l'ingegnere Corradino D’Ascanio presenta il nuovo mezzo di trasporto, è Piaggio in persona a inventare il nome Vespa, perché il suono del motore e la forma della carrozzeria assomigliano a un insetto. La moto ha i fianchi larghi per accogliere il guidatore e il vitino stretto per appoggiare le gambe.
