Hello, VoiceTubers. This is Nina, and you're listening to the Pronunciation Challenge. Today's video is about death. What will happen to our bodies after we die? Watch today's video to find out the answer! But before that, let's take a look at the sentence of the day.
Sentence In the first few seconds after death, the last bit of oxygen in your body is depleted and brain activity surges.
Pronunciation Tips 1. seconds (the con) 2. bit of (linking sound) 3. oxygen (the e pronounce as ə) 4. depleted (the pronunciation of t ) 5. surges (ges pronounce as juhz)
Vocabulary 1. oxygen (n) 氧氣 KK[ˋɑksədʒən] IPA /ˈɑːk.sɪ.dʒən/ Def: a chemical element that is a gas with no smell or color. Oxygen forms a large part of the air on earth, and is needed by animals and plants to live Eg. Air is composed mainly of nitrogen and oxygen. 空氣主要由氮氣和氧氣組成。
2. deplete (v) 消耗 KK[dɪˋplit] IPA/dɪˈpliːt/ Def: to reduce something in size or amount, especially supplies of energy, money, etc Eg. Being chronically angry, frustrated, or apprehensive can deplete your physical resources. 長期處於生氣、沮喪或憂慮的情緒中會耗盡你的精力。
3. surge (v) 激增 KK[sɝdʒ] IPA /sɜːdʒ/ Def: to increase suddenly and strongly Eg. There has been a surge in house prices recently. 最近房價飛漲。
Alright, that's all for today's episode. Today's video shows us what would happen after the human body shuts down. But I'm actually more curious about how long we are conscious after we die. A study has shown that the brain essentially dies about six minutes after the heart stops and the blood supply to the brain is interrupted. But no one can be sure what would happen to our consciousness while our bodies gradually shut down. Do you have any thoughts about today's topic? Share it in the comments, and don't forget to record the sentence. I'll see you next time.
