TASK 67 - IT’S NOT FAIR 


You just got into bed after a long day, and you're exhausted. You plan to spend a few minutes on your phone — maybe scrolling Instagram or TikTok — and then sleep.

But when you try to sleep, it's not as easy as you thought it would be. You were so tired — what happened?

According to a new study, your phone may be the problem.

The study, done by researchers at New Zealand's University of Otago, involved 85 kids aged 11 to 14. They each spent a week wearing a body camera on their chest starting from three hours before they got into bed.

A second camera was also placed in their bedrooms to monitor their phone use once they were in bed. They also wore a device that tracked their sleep.

The researchers found that 99% of the participants used their phones in the two hours before bed. More than half used their phones while they were in bed, and about a third used their phones after trying to go to sleep.

The results showed that screen time in bed affected participants' sleep — it stopped them from going to sleep for about half an hour, and also reduced the amount of sleep they got.

The impact was larger when participants had a more interactive experience — such as playing a game — or if they used more than one screen. For every additional 10 minutes of this type of screen time, sleep time was reduced by the same amount.

Interestingly, phone use in the two hours before bed had little impact on sleep.

According to lead researcher Bradley Brosnan, the results suggest that, while current guidelines recommend no screen time in the hour or two before bed, keeping phones out of the bedroom might be enough for a better night's sleep.

Two friends, Alex and Jamie, are chatting in a park.

Alex: Hey Jamie, did you hear about the surprise party tonight?

Jamie: No, I haven’t. Are you serious?

Alex: Absolutely! And don't worry, I'm just pulling your leg about the party details.

Jamie: (Looking confused) Wait, what do you mean by "pulling your leg"? Are you actually grabbing my leg?

Alex: (Laughs) No, no! "Pulling your leg" is an idiom. It means I'm just joking or teasing you. I'm not doing anything physical at all.

Jamie: Oh, I see! I thought you meant something literal.

Alex: I can understand the confusion. English idioms can be tricky. "Pulling your leg" simply means I'm kidding.

Jamie: Honestly, I always have a hard time understanding or remembering idioms. How do you do it so easily?

Alex: Well, Mrs. Smith on italki taught me all the tips and tricks for mastering them.

Jamie: Really? How do I get her to teach me too?

Alex: It's super simple, just click her picture on italki and book a lesson.

Jamie: Wow, so simple! I've just booked my lesson. I can't wait to finally get the hang of these idioms.

Thai Tea La Nid - EP.2 - Thai People Like to Shorten Words?! 

Hello guys! Welcome back to the episode 2 of Thai Tea La Nid Podcast.

Today, we're going to talk about how Thai people really speak in daily life. 

Well, have you ever had a problem understanding Thai people speak? 

Hmm, it just doesn't sound like what you have learned from the textbook, right? 

I think one of the reasons might be because we always shorten words and we always skip the subject. 

OK, for example, how to ask what are you doing in Thai? 

From the textbook, you might say “kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”. I'll make it more natural. “kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”. 

Which is too formal and kind of too long because that's like six words or eight syllables. 

Okay, so let's start by skipping the subject first. 

From “kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”, we can say “gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká”.

Ok now, let's shorten the words. You can say “tam à-rai yòo ká” or “tam rai ká”. 

That's the shortest version. 

Ok, let's practice again from like the full version to the shortest version, ok? 

“kun gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká” 

“gam-lang tam à-rai yòo ká” 

“tam à-rai yòo ká”, and 

“tam rai ká”. 

Ok, so now you can understand more Thai and I hope you enjoyed this episode of Thai Tea La Nid. 

See you again next time. Bye bye.
