我……我是今年毕业 但是明年申==你懂得 我很苦逼，但是要坚持到底！目前休整，每天练练实力，听力、词汇和读速。 虽然这样，今年申的你压力一定远大于现在的我，祝小A你一切顺利！！！一举拿下傻T！
PS：关于泛听的事儿，我今天凑巧也把SSS放手机里去了，还把听写稿做成字幕可以随时看……
哈哈，这点想到一块去了~~ 而且现在觉得听SSS是种享受啊，hoho

完全没有听出框架来。。。听了第二遍还把正确的题目改错了，偶这样肿么了。。。
感觉单词可能是一个重要原因。。。
单词。。。单词。。。背单词去。。。

23.Good Vibrations May Stop Fat From Forming


Mice that spent 15 minutes a day on a vibrating platform had 30 percent less fat around their middles than mice on stationary surfaces. Karen Hopkin reports.


---------------


If you’re like me, somewhere in your closet, or maybe in a drawer, you probably have a pair of pants you hope to someday fit into. Again. But staying on a diet and finding time to exercise—it’s no walk in the park.  


But wait! Before you swear off the spaghetti, scientists at the State University of New York in Stony Brook have stumbled onto a new way to slenderize. They found that mice that spend 15 minutes a day standing on a vibrating platform are leaner than mice who just stand still. Their results appear in the current online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.


All the animals in the experiment were allowed to eat their fill. Interestingly, after 15 weeks, the shaken mice didn’t actually weigh any less. But compared to the mice who hung out on a stationary platform, they had about 30 percent less fat around their middles.


The SUNY scientists think that the jiggling kept fat cells from forming. Whether it would do the same for people, you never know. And here you thought New Yorkers were lean and mean because they’re always in a hurry rushing here and there. Maybe it’s because they spend so much time standing on vibrating subway platforms, waiting for the uptown express.

先补篇LZ，21的。听写稿~
2011-11-1(070825)
这篇生词较少，大部分能听出来。发觉应该注重长句的单句听写，尽量不拆分，听懂为止再记录，有助锻炼短时记忆和理解。这篇背景色句子特别难听懂，听了好几遍。
This is Scientific American 60-Second Science, I am Steve Mirsky. Got a minute?
Look before you leap, the old adage has it. Well it seems that the animals that first ventured out onto the land from the sea were well equipped to look when they made that leap. Researchers study the retinas of the eyes of lungfish, which are thought to be the closest living relatives to the first vertebrates that lived on land. Lungfish use gills to take in oxygen, but can also breathe air if necessary. And they live in shallow freshwater habitats with a lot of light. So it would make sense that they could see pretty well in a nearly terrestrial environment. And indeed, NDA in the genes for visual pigments in the retinas of the lungfish turned out to be much closer to the sequences found in four-legged animals than with other kinds of fish. The work appears in the journal Biomed Central Evolutionary Biology. (Evolutional)
So the early land-dwellers were probably early adapted to seeing well in their new environment, which must have come in handy for finding food and mates. How did the first creatures that crawled out of the sea smell? Probably pretty bad.

24. Joe Torre and the Psychology of Persuasion


Former Yankee manager Joe Torre made good use of social psychology techniques that were outlined in a February 2001 Scientific American article by Robert Cialdini called The Science of Persuasion, available at www.sciamdigital.com. Steve Mirsky reports.


----------------


The 12-year tenure of New York Yankees manager Joe Torre ended last week.  At a science conference in 2000, Washington Post baseball writer Tom Boswell discussed Torre’s success in terms of the principles set forth in a book called Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, by Robert Cialdini.  Scientific American went on to commission a February 2001 article by Cialdini, available at sciamdigital.com.  The piece discusses six major persuasion factors, which Torre used to such great effect.  


One is reciprocity—you’re more likely to go out of your way for someone who has done so for you.  The second is consistency—acting consistently shows people you can be trusted.  Third, social validation—get enough people on the same page and the rest will likely follow due to peer pressure.  Fourth is simply likeability—people are more likely to respond to somebody they like.  Fifth is authority—Torre’s quiet dignity and outstanding record as a player himself gave him great authority with players.  And sixth is scarcity—things in limited supply are more desirable.  Which should make the one and only Joe Torre a hot commodity on the baseball market.

补上22、23的听写稿，LZ我表示23对我来说一点不简单，看来听力难易还是要看话题熟不熟悉啊~我听了一头雾水 呵呵

23 2011-11-2(070824)
1-4遍基本能听出逻辑线了，讲taller and shorter之间的误区，shorter ones judge health to be worse than the taller, while a test shows 1未听出 2 ironically the shorter actually live longer.
好像能听出较多了，未免受记忆影响，7、8遍改为听写改错，9、10遍跟读。

Height is correlated with a lot of things. Up to a certain height, taller people make more money than the vertically challenged. 幽默And the taller presidential candidate almost (normally) always wins. Now a study finds that your height as adult has a profound effect on your perception of your health. Short people judge their health to be worse than average or tall (higher) people judge theirs. The research was (is) published in the journal Clinical Endocrinology.
Data for the study came from the 2003 Health Survey for England. More than 14,000 participants filledout questionnaires and had their heights measured. The study only lookedat how good the subject thought his or her health was, not their actual health. Questions focused on five areas: mobility, self-care, normal activities, pain or discomfort and anxiety or depression. Men shorter than about 5’4’’ and women shorter than 5 feet reported the worst impressions. But small increases in height at the low end had much bigger effects on perception than the same increases among taller people. Other studies have shown, ironically, that shorter people on average actually live longer.

我个人这篇文章没听懂……Karen Hopkin的语音略有些不习惯了，话题也不熟悉
好吧原来是减肥话题，果断是没理解

If you were like me, somewhere in your closet, or maybe in a drawer, you probably have a pair of pants you hope to someday (could) fit into, again. But staying on the diet and finding time to excise – it is no walk in the park.

昨天听了这篇,我也觉得比之前的较简单些.

几个习惯用语查了下字典

A WALK IN THE PARK: something that is very easy to do or accomplish

swear off (informal): promise to abstain from

( stumble across/on/upon) find or encounter by chance

今天听了这篇,听完2遍的时候,基本知道6点内容,这句讲太快,没听懂Torre’s quiet dignity and outstanding record as a player himself gave him great authority with players.
