越障后面有些没看明白

Speaker
someone talked about his bad habits, among which interrupts other people conversation
smack my gum-- make loud soud when you are chewing the gum
Speed
1--03:25
Instant translation is universal in fiction.
People are developing this kind of things in reality.
An experience, in which one could not buy medicine because of langrange barriers, triggers this person develop an app for translation.
One of the difficulties of instant translation app is paired the audio with meaning, without the influence from the differences between written oral language, slang, inflection, prounciation dialect and conversational flows.
Now apps can help people little, but people can not use them to have deep and complex conversations.
Google are working on a better one.
2--02:00
Google translate working by looking at how language is modeled.
It needs lots of data to compare and analysis before translation, but it will still fast than human translation.
3--02:21
Translation can help people connect with others who speak different language, facebook is an example.
The rise of smartphone and tablets with speech recognition sofware would be new means of web interaction.
A professer hold skeptic on this idea.
She admit its helpful in travel, business and internation relationship, but it would make people lazy.
Force the brain work in different way is rewarding.
And culture is not completely embodied in language.
4--01:36
Open office was sought to boost communication and efficiency, but study shows emloyees are significantly less satified because of this change.
One explanation is open office proioritize communication and collaboration but sacrifice privacy.
5--02:28
Nosie, lack of sunlight, overheat, sit too long time or stand too long time are all hurt people's performances.
Obstacle--05:06

       Google translation device tries to fosus on the context but not single words to do the translation. The device is
       based on mountains of data, which is exactly what Google has.

time4: 2min 54"
       Facebook is also trying to launch translating device that will help its goal of connecting the world. But Laura
       Murphy questions the value of a universal translator and worries that such a device will make people lazy.

time5: 1min 42"
       A brief history of open-plan offices.
       A recent research has found that open-plan offices sacrifice workers' privacy and they are less satisfied with
       their working environment than before.

time6: 2min 35"
       The research also found that overhead lights can have bad effects on co-workers; music and caffine have different
       affects on introvert and extroverts and sitting for too long during the day will increase health risk.
       The writer also provide some advice for how to get employees to work better.

Obstacle: President Obama met with Pope Francis and asked the Holy Father what he could do to satisfy the bishops in America.       The conflicts between Catholic conservatives and progressives. Both sides want Francis to bless their own positions
       inside the U.S. Catholic struggle. But the meeting underscored something else: Francis's worldview is plainly not
       American. Francis is a social conservative.

哈哈，speaker 练习过，占座交作业

Time 2: 3m09s   

A language translation software are needed to effective communicate in business world.

The traditional translation app need large numbers of data input. it often responses according to the speaker’s voice ,translate these words to text and then to the another language’s voice.

Time 3: 2m12s

Goole ‘s approach is focus on the statical data, not on the word by word translation.

Google have huge amount of data collection needed to work this approach .

Time 4: 2m07s

Facebook see this translation benefits,and stocky think that the spoken component is the most potential part in the future.

When valuing the translation software,some deems it as positive, some think that it will make people more lazy,who avoid forcing brains to learn.

Rest : 47s

We already have the technique, and only wait to collect the mountains of data.

That world might bot be far off.

Time 5: 1m22s   

Although the open plan office benefits the efficient communication, the privacy issue made employees not satisfy their work.

Time 6: 2m35s

Introverts 内向的人。

Studies reveal that the boss should provide the privacy office and all kinds of facilities to enable employees work efficiently and healthily.
