每日口說挑戰鬼來電？！為什麼人們總是覺得自己手機在震動？ (Why You Think Your Phone Just Buzzed？)

我比較常在Likely睡覺的時候，覺得我聽到他的哭聲，以為他醒過來了…

昨晚的地震消息裡學到一個單字
earthquake = temblor /ˈtem.blɚ/
Level 4 shockwaves felt across Taiwan from magnitude 6.7 temblor (Taiwan News on Facebook)

Have you ever experienced this kind of situation? You’re walking on the street with your phone in your pocket, and suddenly you feel a vibration, you think you’ve got a text or message from others, but when you take out your phone to check the text, you find that there isn’t any new message. I’ve always experienced this kind of situation and check my phone every 10 minutes. I know this is a bad habit, and I’m trying to get rid of it. After this brief introduction, are you interested in this topic? If so, feel free to check out the video for today. And we can now move on to the sentence for the day: “Phantom phone vibes(=vibrations) are likely a false alarm in something called our signal(n.信號) detection(檢測) system, which is exactly what it sounds like.” (聽起來就像手機真的有震動一樣)

1-1. phantom [ˋfæntəm] (adj.) 幻覺的；虛假的
*After the car accident, Ken always feels a phantom pain in the leg(幻肢痛).

1-2. phantom [ˋfæntəm] (n.) = ghost幽靈，虛位
a phantom of king 有名無實的國王
+ 歌劇魅影 The Phantom of the Opera
+ She was simply swallowed up like a phantom.

2-1. detection [dɪˋtɛkʃən] (n.) 發現；偵查
false detection 故障檢測
*The small town has a high crime detection rate(破案率).

2-2. detect [dɪˋtɛkt] (v.) 發現；偵查
+ Some sounds cannot be detected by the human ear.
+ detective (n.)偵探

3. exactly [ɪgˋzæktlɪ] (adv.) 精確地；完全地
代替口語中的yes
A: So you mean your boyfriend popped(突然出現) the question yesterday?
B: Exactly!
*That's exactly what I want, thank you so much.

Okay, so that’s all for today’s pronunciation challenge. Nowadays, people are more and more addicted to their smartphone and can hardly live without it. This can really have some negative impact([ˋɪmpækt]n.影響) on your life. So, trying not to use it so often. But remember to practice the sentence for today and leave your recording in the comment before you put your smartphone aside.

☺Phantom phone vibes are likely a false alarm in something called our signal detection system, which is exactly what it sounds like.
手機幻震很可能就只是我們大腦所謂的信號偵測系統所發出來的錯誤警報訊號，聽起來就像手機真的在震動一樣。
【心得】偶爾會有這種幻覺，不過也常有手機明明有震動，但卻沒有察覺的狀況。
■phantom [ˋfæntəm] 幽靈似的；幻覺的；虛假的；捉摸不定的
幽靈、鬼魂、令人恐懼的東西；幻像，幻覺；有名無實的人(或東西)；(腦海中的)印象；化身；影子
■detection [dɪˋtɛkʃən] 發現、發覺；偵查；偵破(案件)；探知；{無線電}檢波

【go hog wild】因過於興奮熱切而做得過頭
- to become too excited and eager about something, often so that you do too much
■ There's no need to go hog wild just because it's Sarah's birthday - she won't want such a fuss.
僅僅因為今天是莎拉的生日就衝動過了頭，這實在是沒必要，她不想小題大做。

Phantom phone vibes are likely a false alarm in something called our signal detection system, which is exactly what it sounds like.

比起虛幻的錯誤訊號，更可怕的是收到國家地震警報！

很不喜歡接電話。覺得吵。
於是成為邊緣人。

Thank Doris and every friend who listens to my recordings.

Thanks, Doris. Have a great day, everyone.

幻振就像我們信號檢測系統發出來的錯誤訊號。
