跟伴侶的相處模式可以有三種方式：Turning towards, turning away, turning against，當你另一半跟你講話的時候，你是 turning toward 試著接他的話，還是 turning away 不理會他，或是最差的選項 turning against 請他安靜？So, you know, in our apartment lab where we saw 130 newlywed couples and followed them for six years, we discovered that a lot of times when they're just kind of hanging out in this apartment lab, one person will try to get the other person's attention or share something humorous, or, you know, some interesting story that they've heard or are reading about. ---- 訂閱 Podcast 講義，含逐字稿、重點單字，超過 200 份講義。 https://www.zeczec.com/projects/kevin-english-podcast?r=k67341249890 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

除了個人體質差異，影響睡眠還有一個很主要的因素就是年紀。從十歲以後，我們會越來越晚睡，男性在 21 歲的時候會是最晚睡的階段，而女性會在 19 歲達到晚睡高峰。There's another factor, which is how old we are. So from about the age of 10, there's a tendency to want to go to bed later and later and later, peaks in lateness in males about 21, 21 and a half in females about 19. ---- 本集節目由【夜市人蔘文化桌遊】贊助播出 吃喝玩樂，是跨語言跨文化最棒的交流！讓台味桌遊《夜市人蔘》成為你用英文宣傳家鄉文化的好幫手！ 立馬收藏 ，輸入「yeskevin」享有 pinkoi「蔘利商號」全系列商品9折並加贈牌套喔！ 👉 連結： https://www.pinkoi.com/store/yesginseng ---- 訂閱 Podcast 講義，含逐字稿、重點單字，超過 200 份講義，立即閱讀 https://www.zeczec.com/projects/kevin-english-podcast?r=k67341249890 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

如果想判斷自己是否睡眠不足，只要問自己幾個簡單的問題。第一、是否早上需要有人叫才會醒，第二、是否需要鬧鐘，第三，是否白天渴望咖啡因或是高含糖飲料。Does it take you a long time to wake up? Do you crave caffeinated and sugar rich drinks during the day to keep you awake? ---- 免費電子報：Podcast 字稿、國際新聞整理 https://www.kevinenglishpodcast.com/podcast-opt-in 訂閱 Podcast 講義，含逐字稿、重點單字，超過 200 份講義，立即閱讀 https://www.zeczec.com/projects/kevin-english-podcast?r=k67341249890 -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

人一天應該睡多久？六、七、還是八小時？其實，人多睡眠時間沒有一定，而是要看每個人自己的需求而決定。對我來講八小時剛好，我太太通常需要十到十二小時。I think the key thing for me is that one shoe size doesn't fit all. And one of the sort of slight frustrations that that's emerged is that an average value is taken as the optimum value for all of us. And of course it isn't. ---- 免費電子報：Podcast 字稿、國際新聞整理 https://www.kevinenglishpodcast.com/podcast-opt-in -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

壞習慣為什麼容易養成？其實是因為壞習慣往往會提供立即的好處。例如，吃甜點會得到立即的快樂，但如果連續一兩年一直吃很多零食，可能體重會增加。相反的，好習慣沒有立即好處，卻要長時間的養成才會得到好處。Meanwhile, good habits are often the exact opposite. The immediate reward of going to the gym or going to the gym for like a week isn't really that great, your body's probably sore, and you don't have much to show for it, your body looks the same, your weight hasn't really changed. ---- 免費電子報：Podcast 字稿、國際新聞整理 https://www.kevinenglishpodcast.com/podcast-opt-in -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

我們的習慣很多都是被社會規範所養成，我們對事情的選擇、認定事情的對錯也都是取決於社會的期待。所以，如果我們希望維持紀律、達成某個特定目標，可以接近跟我們目標一致的群體。 ---- 本集節目由【InBody】贊助播出 業界最精準的 InBody 家用型體脂計，再也不用到健身房花錢測量體脂率了 現在到以下連結可享優惠價 $10990，輸入折扣碼「kevin」再折一千！限時七天！即日起至 2/13 23:59 分截止 👉 https://reurl.cc/330GmM ---- 聽力填空格 5 題： #1 So many of our habits are s______ r______. #2 Or you walk onto an elevator and you turn around to f____ t____ f_____, even though you could f____ t____ b____ or the side or whatever. #3 But that's not what people do, so you do what e______ e____ d____. #4 So I think the punchline to this is that you want to join a group where your d______ b_____ is the normal behavior, #5.

不用擔心你一天讀多少英文或是背了幾個單字，我只問你是不是每天都有讀英文，習慣往往是生活的切入點，而非終點，不用煩腦做多、做少，只要確定有開始就好。Habits are often the entry point, not the end point. They're the cab, not the gym. They're like an entrance ramp to the bigger routines in your life. ---- YouTube：不是你記憶力不好，我如何用科學方法背單字： https://youtu.be/AUMhrw4nx4c 免費電子報：Podcast 字稿、國際新聞整理 https://www.kevinenglishpodcast.com/podcast-opt-in -- Hosting provided by SoundOn

如果想建立一個新的習慣，不用一次給自己太大的壓力。試試看 the two minute rule，先讓自己從事改變兩分鐘，慢慢開始。And I like to recommend the two minute rule, which basically says you take whatever habit you're trying to build, and you scale it down to something that takes two minutes or less to do. ---- 免費電子報：Podcast 字稿、國際新聞整理 https://www.kevinenglishpodcast.com/podcast-opt-in -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
