【六分鐘英文】戀愛的科學 (The science of falling in love ⏲️ 6 Minute English)
- Often lust comes first, but not always. For some people who are asexual, it may not happen at all. But for those who do experience lust, it's driven by the hormones oestrogen and testosterone. It may feel purely carnal, but in fact it's about the urge to mate and pass on your DNA via offspring. Without lust, it's fair to say, our species would not survive.
情慾往往是第一位的，但並非總是如此。對於一些無性戀者來說，情慾可能根本不會發生。但對於那些有性慾的人來說，性慾是由雌激素和睪丸激素驅動的。它可能讓人感覺純粹是肉慾，但事實上，它是關於交配的衝動和通過後代傳承 DNA 的衝動。可以說，沒有慾望，我們這個物種將無法生存。
- but in fact, it's about the urge to mate and pass on your DNA via offspring.

- Fairfax found you to train it: but now you know that it is the illegitimate offspring of a French opera-girl: you will perhaps think differently of your post and protégé: you will be coming to me some day with notice that you have found another place, that you begged me to look out for a new governess, et cetera: eh?

研究證實「阿嬤」這個生物真的很奇妙！ (Evolution Can't Explain Your Grandma)
- In other words, this grandmother hypothesis suggests that being a grandmother and helping to take care of your adult offspring and their offspring is a better way of ensuring your genes get passed on than continuing to reproduce yourself.

- Since the only way to be 100% sure that an offspring is yours is to give birth to it, that means the males of a species might not know for sure how many offspring they actually have.
由於百分之百確定後代是你的唯一方法就是生下它，這意味著一個物種的雄性可能不確定他們實際上有多少後代。
