제목: 주말에 한 일

지난 주말에 저는 친구들과 함께 서울 근처로 소풍을 갔어요. 날씨가 아주 맑고 따뜻해서 소풍 가기에 정말 좋았어요. 우리는 아침 일찍 지하철을 타고 한강공원으로 갔어요. 한강에는 사람들이 많았어요. 가족, 연인, 친구들이 모두 나와서 자전거를 타거나 돗자리를 펴고 쉬고 있었어요.

우리는 먼저 편의점에서 김밥, 과자, 음료수를 샀어요. 그리고 강 옆 잔디밭에 자리를 잡고 앉아서 이야기하며 점심을 먹었어요. 바람이 시원하게 불어서 기분이 아주 좋았어요.

점심을 먹은 후에 우리는 자전거를 빌려서 공원을 한 바퀴 돌았어요. 자전거를 타면서 강 위로 지나가는 배도 보고, 멀리 보이는 남산타워도 봤어요. 운동을 하니까 조금 힘들었지만, 오랜만에 친구들과 함께라서 즐거웠어요.

자전거를 반납한 후에는 근처 카페에 갔어요. 그곳에서는 커피와 케이크를 주문했어요. 창문 옆 자리에 앉아서 강을 보면서 커피를 마셨는데, 정말 여유로운 시간이었어요. 친구들과 사진도 많이 찍었어요.

해가 질 때쯤 우리는 집으로 돌아왔어요. 하루 종일 놀아서 피곤했지만 마음은 행복했어요. 다음 주말에도 친구들과 함께 소풍을 가고 싶어요.

Episode 1: There's a Man in the Habit of Hitting Me on the Head with an Umbrella - مردی هست که عادت دارد با چتر بکوبد توی سرم

Do you find it harder to be nice and cooperative when you're tired? You're not alone — and there's actually science behind that feeling.

Researchers in Italy looked at how being tired affected people's brains and the decisions they made.

They looked at a total of almost 450 people. The participants all started by doing a set of similar tasks for about 45 minutes — but for one group, the tasks were made much more difficult to make the participants mentally tired.

For example, the mentally tired group was given more difficult quiz questions to answer. And while everyone watched funny videos, the mentally tired group was told to try not to smile or laugh.

Participants then played several economic games that asked them to make decisions that would give different benefits to themselves and others, like deciding how to share points in a group.

It was found that mentally tired participants were much less likely to make cooperative decisions in the games. They were also more likely to choose "antisocial" and "spiteful" options — where they could, say, choose to use some of their own points to reduce someone else's points instead of using them to help themselves or the group.

Why did this happen?

Among the mentally tired group, the researchers found a much stronger increase in "slow-wave" activity in parts of the brain used for things like planning, paying attention, controlling emotions and understanding others. These "slow waves" are similar to the ones seen in our brains when we sleep.

The researchers said this increase in slow waves may explain tired participants' less cooperative decisions.

So when you're tired after a long day, you may be less nice because the parts of your brain you need to help you cooperate are actually going to sleep!

It is recommended that you study in the following ways:
Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary)
Step 2: Check the script and learn new words. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can then retell the story.
Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
我们经常需要在各种各样的场合中讲话，有时候是非正式的聊天，有时候是正式的演讲。那么什么样的演讲才是好的演讲呢？我们来听一听刘墉先生的看法。
主持人：您觉得对您来说什么是一场成功的演讲？
刘墉：就是把你心里要说的，你都尽量地完全地顺顺当当地表达出来，而且让听众能够得到感动。你真实的情感，让他能够感触到，而且他们感动了之后能够延伸下去，就（是）说产生影响力。我记得有一次我在山西太原做公益演讲，讲完了大家除了有公益的捐款之外，出了场子知道有一个有个孩子在那哭，说他脚踏车被偷了，一个听讲的人就说没关系，我来出钱我给你去买一辆。让我非常地惊讶，那个人后来跟我说，他说：“刘老师，我听了演讲，我觉得我们让下一代快乐，帮别人解决问题，那其实就是解决我们自己心理的问题。”也就是它产生了正面的影响，我们不会只是希望在这个场子里头他感动，应该能够延伸下去，甚至能够影响人的一生。而且我的经验，一场成功的演讲，尤其是感性的演讲，当你讲完的时候，除了掌声之外，你会注意很多人会留在场子上不急着走，他们依然坐在那边。为什么？他们正在取决于他们咀嚼所听到的东西。我们要讲的东西让人能在现场听得精彩，让他在未来能够咀嚼，让他人生当中能够实现，这就是好的演讲。
你觉得什么是好的演讲？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
