El problema de Gabriela

The "th" sound is the hardest sound for everybody. You need to give it special attention.

Tongue twisters with “th”
		The thirty-three thieves thought that they thrilled the throne throughout Thursday.
		
		I thought a thought. But the thought I thought Wasn’t the thought I thought I thought. If the thought I thought I thought, Had been the thought I thought, I wouldn’t have thought I thought.
		
		Something in a thirty-acre thermal thicket of thorns and thistles thumped and thundered threatening the three-D thoughts of Matthew the thug – although, theatrically, it was only the thirteen-thousand thistles and thorns through the underneath of his thigh that the thirty-year-old thug thought of that morning.
		
		Thirty-three thousand feathers on a thrushes throat.

The th Sound in English

Physiologists Alanda Lennox and Allen Goodship found an explanation for this paradox in 2008. They discovered that pregnant bears were able to increase the density of their bones before they started to build their dens. In addition, six months later, when they finally emerged from the den with their cubs, there was no evidence of significant loss of bone density. Hibernating brown bears do not have this capacity and must therefore resort to major bone reformation in the following spring. If the mechanism of bone remodelling in polar bears can be understood, many bedridden humans, and even astronauts, could potentially benefit.

The medical benefits of the polar bear for humanity certainly have their importance in our conservation efforts, but these should not be the only factors taken into consideration. We tend to want to protect animals we think are intelligent and possess emotions, such as elephants and primates. Bears, on the other hand, seem to be perceived as stupid and in many cases violent. And yet anecdotal evidence from the field challenges those assumptions, suggesting for example that polar bears have good problem-solving abilities. A male bear called GoGo in Tennoji Zoo, Osaka, has even been observed making use of a tool to manipulate his environment. The bear used a tree branch on multiple occasions to dislodge a piece of meat hung out of his reach. Problem-solving ability has also been witnessed in wild polar bears, although not as obviously as with GoGo. A calculated move by a male bear involved running and jumping onto barrels in an attempt to get to a photographer standing on a platform four metres high.

IELTS Reading & Comprehension. Why we need to protect polar bears Pt.2 

先週ドイツに帰ってきました。成田空港からフランクフルト空港までの直行便だったのですが、14時間の長いフライトでした。おかげで映画を３本見ることができました。ちなみに、ドイツから日本に帰るときは中国上空を飛ぶルートだったのですが、ドイツに戻るフライトはアメリカ上空を飛ぶルートでした。つまり私はこの2回のフライトで地球をほぼ一周したことになります。
飛行機を降りた瞬間、ドイツの暑さに驚きました。ヨーロッパに熱波が来ているとは聞いてましたが、ここまで暑いとは想像していませんでした。事実、金曜日と土曜日は日本よりも気温が高く、日中は30度を超えていました。今週は気温が下がり、とても涼しくなりました。
もうドイツに帰って来てから1週間経つのですが、まだ時差ぼけがあるので、夜10時ごろにはとても眠くなって寝てしまいます。
みなさんは長時間のフライトの時、飛行機の中でどのように過ごしますか？
時差ぼけにならないためにしている対策はありますか？
よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えて下さい。
