每日口說挑戰早上不喝咖啡也能精神百倍？七個早晨醒腦小撇步(7 Tips To Wake Up Without Coffee)

Intro:
Hey, guys! Tera here with another Pronunciation Challenge episode. We have been talking about coffee several times, from how coffee can affect your brain to what can happen to your body when you drink too much coffee. As a coffeeholic, today, I’m going to bring you guys to another coffee-related video. I believe some of you might find it useful and interesting, especially for those who don’t drink coffee and those who would like to reduce the amount of coffee you sip every day. And, that is, "7 Tips to Wake Up Without Coffee". Yes, you didn’t hear it wrong. No coffee anymore. Go and watch the video and find out the very 7 tips that can kick your body into gear. And, today’s sentence is…

Featured sentence: Researchers have also found that the shock of cold shower water can increase your metabolic rate further, reducing feelings of fatigue.

Tips:
1. researcher: three syllables with the stress on the second one. "re" is /ri/, "search" is /sɝːtʃ/, and "er" is /ɚ/. Altogether, "re-search-er".
2. shock of: there is a linking between "shock" and "of".
3. metabolic: four syllables with the stress on the third one. Notice that the "a" in the second syllable is pronounced as /ə/, and "o" in the third syllable is pronounced as /ɑ/.
4. fatigue: two syllables with the stress on the second one. The vowel of "fa" is reduced, so it is /fə/. "tigue" all falls into one syllable and is pronounced as /ˈtiːɡ/.

Outro:
Let’s do a quick recap. First, find some light to decrease melatonin production. Second, end your shower with cold water to reduce the feelings of fatigue. Next up, hydrate yourself so that you can stay alert. In addition, eat a healthy breakfast to increase cognitive function throughout the day. Furthermore, drink some orange juice, and that is because the molecules called "flavonoids" in it are proven to have been linked to slowing cognitive decline due to aging. Also, being physically active is important because it can provide your brain with more oxygen and increase mental performance. As for the last one, listen to music for the reason that it can increase your blood pressure. All above are the 7 tips mentioned in the video. And, that brings us to the end of today’s episode. Hope you find them helpful! This is Tera from VoiceTube. See you soon.
