One of Coca-Cola's many taglines was: "You can't beat the real thing." The company was trying to say that even though there were a lot of similar drinks, none of them was as good as the "real" Coke.

You might not agree. But when it comes to art, researchers in the Netherlands think it's true — you can't beat the real thing.

A small study has found that real artworks stimulate the brain much more than posters or prints of the same work.

The Mauritshuis ("MAO-rits-haus") Museum in The Hague commissioned the study. The museum's best-known artwork is Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer.

Researchers showed this artwork and four others to 20 people. While they were looking at the paintings, their brain activity was measured using a brain scanner.

The participants were also asked to look at posters of those same five artworks. The researchers compared their brain activity when looking at the real artworks and when looking at the posters.

They found that when looking at the real artworks, participants had an emotional response that was 10 times stronger compared to when they were looking at the posters.

Martine Gosselink from the museum said this was an "enormous difference." She said they had thought that looking at the real thing might give people a richer experience, but now "we can really say that it is true."

The researchers said the real art caused a strong emotional response in a part of the brain called the precuneus. This part of the brain is involved with self-reflection and personal memories.

Some have said that this research demonstrates the importance of museums and galleries for people of all ages.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天继续和大家聊一聊一些有趣的颜色短语。颜色我们一般用“深”和“浅”来形容。例如，浅蓝色，light blue，深蓝色，dark blue。如果一件衣服的颜色很多，或者很亮，我们可以说这件衣服颜色很鲜艳。“给点儿颜色看看”你知道是什么意思吗？它的意思是“让对方知道你的厉害，使对方感到害怕。”例如“他总是欺负我的好朋友，今天我要给他点儿颜色看看。”
我们来看看黑色有什么有意思的用法。第一个，黑心，一个人的心是黑色的，说明他的心很坏。例如“他是一个黑心商人，为了赚钱竟然卖过期的食品。”第二个，黑车。黑车不只是黑色的车，还有一个意思是“不合法经营的出租车”。如果一个人不小心上了黑车，那是很危险的。第三个，“拉黑”，拉到黑名单。如果你的微信上有一个朋友，你不想再收到他的信息，那你可以把他拉黑。最后一个，“黑脸”。如果我们说：“他黑着脸”，意思是他很不高兴。
接着我们来看看白色。第一个，小白，我们说一个人是小白，意思是他没有经验。例如“我刚接触这个工作，还是个小白，要向各位多多学习。”第二个，“白”加动词或者形容词。例如，“我去他公司找他，结果他不在，我白跑一趟了。”“本来以为他能陪我过生日，结果他要加班，我白高兴一场。这里的“白”是没有结果的意思。
哪个用法你觉得最有意思呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

有趣的“颜色”短语（二）Interesting "Color" phrase Part 2（Intermediate level）

There's a video on TikTok in which a user takes a jar of seasoning called "Everything But the Bagel" and carefully separates the ingredients into small piles to find out the secret to the recipe.

The video has been viewed almost 2 million times — a sign of just how popular this seasoning mix, made by US company Trader Joe's, has become.

People like to put it on top of bagels and use it in lots of different meals.

However, fans of the mix have been finding out that it's not welcome everywhere in the world.

Signs have been posted at Incheon Airport in Seoul, telling passengers they can't bring jars of the seasoning into the country.

The reason is that one of the ingredients is banned in South Korea.

The mix contains things like sesame seeds, dried garlic, dried onion and salt — but poppy seeds are the problem.

Poppy seeds are banned in South Korea because they are narcotic-related items, according to the airport. The ban is not new but travelers have said that airports are now cracking down on the seasoning mix.

The seeds are also banned in a number of other countries, including Saudi Arabia and Singapore.

The poppy plant is used to make drugs like heroin and morphine, although the seeds don't contain any opiates.

However, the country worries that the seeds could be contaminated by opiates.

In fact, in the US, members of the armed forces have been advised not to eat products containing poppy seeds in case they affect the results of drug tests.

Drug tests can be very sensitive but experts say that it would be almost impossible to eat enough poppy seeds to feel any narcotic effect.

South Korea Cracks Down on Popular Seasoning Mix

こんばんは！Atsushiです！
今日の北海道の天気は晴れ。
気温は21℃、涼しいです。

さて、今日は早口言葉について話します。
英語ではtongue twisterとしていろんなフレーズがありますね。

日本語では早口言葉、と言って、小さい時には時々遊んだりします。さすがに大人になるとほとんど言わないですね。

日本語学習者のみなさんの口ならしになると思いますので、さっそくやってみましょう！


１つめ。
・生麦生米生卵　なまむぎなまごめなまたまご

どうですか？もう1度言いますね。
では、みなさん、どうぞ！マ行が続くので言い難いですね。

では次の言葉。
・隣の客はよく柿食う客だ　となりのきゃくはよくかきくうきゃくだ

もう1度言いますね。ではみなさん、どうぞ。
これはカ行の練習ですね。
拗音、キャも入るので、これもむずかしいですね。

最後はこれです。
・除雪車除雪作業中　じょせつしゃじょせつさぎょうちゅう

もう1度言いますね。ではみなさんどうぞ。
北海道なので、雪にまつわる言葉を選びました。これはサ行と拗音も入るので、これも簡単ではないですね。


はい、ということでいかがだったでしょうか。
何度も練習すると、日本語の発話が少し上手になるかもしれませんね！

ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
