It is driven, the new report says, by factors such as our increased demand for animal protein, unsustainable agricultural practices on climate change.

Environment program suggests we could do better at controlling zoonotic diseases with an interdisciplinary approach that unites human, animal and environmental health.

It is a result off human activity on if humans want to stop the spread of disease from animals to humans, we have to change our behavior.

Okay, well, what language is being used in the media to talk about this story?

好吧，那麼，媒體是用什麼語言來談論這個故事的呢？

The chain outlines steady stream on break the chain.

Let's start with your first headline, please.

那麼，首先我們來看看U N新聞。

報告概述了遏制動物傳染給人類的疾病日益蔓延的方法。

It's one word made of two parts O u t out on lines L I N E s.

這是個由兩部分組成的詞，在L I N E線上出現。

We pronounce it outlines now, Neo, are you an artist?

我們現在讀出它的輪廓，尼奧，你是藝術家嗎？

But I am not a NA artist, unfortunately, okay, like may then.

但我不是一個NA藝術家，很不幸，好吧，就像可能那麼。

So if you're going to draw a picture of May, how would you start?

那麼如果你要畫一幅梅的畫，你會怎麼開始呢？

Well, I suppose I would try to get the main idea down on the paper so that for me would be drawing the lines around the outside of your face and hair, maybe.

好吧，我想我會試著把主要的想法寫在紙上，所以對我來說，可能是在你的臉和頭髮的外面畫出線條。

Okay, so you draw just one line covering the shape that's around the outside of May.

好的，你只畫一條線，覆蓋在五月外面的形狀上。

Essentially okay, so that one line going around the outside of something to show where it is without the details you're not filling in any of the details.

基本上是可以的，所以那一條線繞著東西的外面去顯示它的位置，而沒有細節，你沒有填寫任何細節。

Whilst good artists often don't do art that way.

而好的藝術家往往不會這樣做藝術。

A lot of people do draw a circle for the head.

Then you do a line for the nose, two lines for the lips, that sort of very basic drawing that shows you the basic shape of something.

然後你做一條線做鼻子，兩條線做嘴脣，那種很基本的畫法，讓你看到一些東西的基本形狀。

It's a verb in this headline, and it means the gives the basic plan without a lot of details.

在這個標題裡，它是一個動詞，它的意思是給出了基本的計劃，沒有太多的細節。

Yeah, also used as a noun thio an outline and to give an outline.

是啊，也用作名詞thio an outline和給出大綱。

Yes, after we used to give an outline, that's a verb on.

是的，我們以前給一個大綱之後，那是一個動詞上。

Then the proposition off you can give an outline off your plan.

然後，命題關你可以給你的計劃一個大綱。

That means you talk in very basic details without giving lots of any details about something you can give a basic outline of a plan.

這意味著你用非常基本的細節來說話，而不需要給出大量的任何細節的東西，你可以給出一個基本的計劃大綱。

你可以在理論上給出一個大綱。

Often idea off a proposal, but it's often to do with giving basically information about something that you're planning to do.

是的，計劃是這裡的一個關鍵詞。

You can outline the plan or you can give an outline off a plan.

你可以列出計劃大綱，也可以在計劃之外給出一個大綱。

And now we're going to the Independent here in the U.

The headline U N warns off steady stream of infectious diseases unless world tackles wildlife exploitation.

頭條新聞 聯合國警告說，除非世界解決野生動物開發問題，否則傳染病將源源不斷。

Steady stream, continuous flow off something.

Now, this is a two word expression on the words are separate Steady.

現在，這兩個字的表達上的字是分開的穩。

S T r E a M Now, Neil, you know what a stream is, don't you?

尼爾，你知道溪流是什麼，對吧？

As small body off water, like a river, but much smaller.

作為小水體，像一條河，但小得多。

You can usually jump across a stream or you can walk through a stream from one side to another it contains water, the water flows.

你通常可以跳過一條小溪，也可以從一條小溪的一邊走到另一邊它含有水，水是流動的。

Or it may flow steadily neither quickly nor slowly not speeding up, not slowing down.

或可穩穩地流淌著既不快也不慢地不加速、不減速。

So a steady stream means a continuous flow.

現在，如果我們看一下我們的頭條，美國。

N is warning about a steady stream of infectious diseases.

It means that there will be mawr off these diseases spreading from animals to humans.

意思是說，這些疾病將有可能從動物傳染給人類。

On they will have this spread will be steady.

It will happen regularly on a regular intervals.

它將定期地發生在定期的間隔。

Yeah, we're talking about something one after another, one after one after another, not speeding up, not slowing down, but it will keep on happening.

是啊，我們現在說的是一個接一個的事情，一個接一個的事情，不是加快，不是放慢，而是會不斷的發生。

Okay, let's have a summary of that, please.

So what this story is telling us is that humans have to change their behavior in order to prevent the spread of these diseases.

所以這個故事告訴我們的是，人類必須改變自己的行為，才能防止這些疾病的傳播。

One way suggested by many of changing that behavior is to go vegan.

很多人建議改變這種行為的一個方法就是吃素。

And we've got a story on that haven't way we have.

我們有一個故事，沒有辦法，我們有。

If you go vegan, you stop eating or using animal products.
