Hi guys, welcome to today’s pronunciation challenge and my name is Kristi. So it’s a new year and perhaps a lot of people, well, making their new year’s resolution, they talked about not procrastinating. So today we have a video from TED and it’s from Tim Urban, and he says: Inside the mind of mater procrastinator. So let’s take a look at today’s sentence.
procrastinator (n.) 拖延的人
procrastinate (v.) 拖延 e.g. He always procrastinates till the very last minute, and therefore he never has enough time to revise his essay.
mechanism (n.) 機制
mechanic (n.) 機械工 e.g. I have to rely on the mechanic to fix my scooter.
machine (n.) 機器
panic (adj.) 恐慌 e.g. Don’t panic. What we should do right now is to figure out a resolution.
situation (n.) 處境; 遭遇 e.g. I think the situation is quite complicated, and I would need someone objective to make a decision for me.
contain (v.) 含有 e.g. The content contains strong language, which may be unsuitable for children.
contaminate (v.) 汙染 e.g. This dish was contaminated by the flys buzzing around.
Alright, so that’s it for today’s pronunciation challenge. I know it’s a weekend, but still don’t procrastinate. Umm, if you don’t wanna procrastinate, you could, you know, immediately watch this TED video, and also leave your recordings below, and I will challenge you guys tomorrow. Bye.

今天跳針有點嚴重,但是我不想重錄了哈哈哈 Now if the procrastinator's only mechanism of doing these hard things is the Panic Monster, that's a problem, because in all of these non-deadline situations, the Panic Monster doesn't show up. He has nothing to wake up for, so the effects of procrastination, they're not contained; they just extend outward forever.
So I think we need to all take a long, hard look at that calendar. We need to think about what we're really procrastinating on, because everyone is procrastinating on something in life. We need to stay aware of the Instant Gratification Monkey. That's a job for all of us. And because there's not that many boxes on there, it's a job that should probably start today. Well, maybe not today, but ... You know. Sometime soon. Thank you. ────────────────────────── ■panic (n.) 驚慌;恐慌 (v.) 使…驚慌panic-panicked-panicked (adj.) 驚慌的;恐慌的 □panicky (adj.) 擔心的,恐慌的

不知道大家有沒有聽過"邏輯思維"? 這是目前大陸很火紅的主講人「羅胖」的個人知識型脫口秀節目,有點像是說書人的概念。有一集的主題就是在講拖延症,深入淺出,個人覺得很受用,推薦給大家看看^^ 【大家都有拖延症】>> https://goo.gl/dOS5Ot
