Suggested ideas:
The benefits of the environment during the pandemic:
Psychological benefits:
+ avoid negative thinkings ( enjoy green nature keeps people busy and boost mood after reading much mournful news about Covid-19)
+ exposure to natural areas, harmonize with nature → relaxing mind → positive shifts in behaviour
Physical benefits
+ consolidate the bonds with family members (lockdown -> spend more time with family/friends outdoors i.e nearby parks, green spaces)
+ more frequency to local green areas, gardening, remote areas (still keep social distancing and enjoy nature) (lack of services which are closed due to COVID-19) → enhance physical health to lower the susceptibility to catching zoonotic diseases
- Ways to better the relationship with nature:
+ Minimize human’s intervention in the transition zones between different ecosystems (human settle
in various places > species from different habitats mix and interact, forming new contacts
-> opportunities for zoonotic diseases to spread like coronavirus did)
Trang 6+ Conserve biodiversity and prevent possible losses (E.g the increased risk of Lyme disease to humans in North America due to reduced diversity of vertebrates and rampant white-footed mouse
- the primary reservoir of the bacteria causing Lyme disease)
Trang 7Transcript
Part 1
Presenter: Breaking news tonight The shootings are not stopping as president Joe Biden is asking
for tougher gun laws across the country Several people were shot at a cemetery in Wisconsin during
a funeral service and a reported shooting near a church in Iowa has left at least two people dead What the president wants to see would drastically change gun ownership across the country and here
in Georgia John Shearick joining us live tonight, from the Georgia state capitol And John, local republicans are standing by their convictions on this issue
Reporter: Georgia republicans in the legislature standing firm making sure there are few
gun restrictions in state law while the president urging Congress to go after the guns in federal law Call it his “enough” speech, President Biden's impassioned plea to congress to act now to fight violent crimes that are committed with guns
Presesident: “I’ve been in this fight for a long time I know how hard it is but I’ll never give up and
if congress fails, I believe this time a majority of American people won't give up either I believe the majority of you will act to turn your outrage into making this
issue central to your vote Enough Enough Enough.”
Reporter: The president urged republicans to agree to several proposals including a ban on assault
rifles and high-capacity magazines, background checks on all gun buyers, a
safe storage law with criminal penalties, red flag laws Georgia’s eight republican
members of the house have opposed those proposals representative Barry Loudermilk telling us after the President's speech that he supports instead, advanced school security, effective mental health intervention, better tools and training for law enforcement to combat crime and representative Austin Scott: “fellows don't
follow the law Biden’s proposed actions only attack law-abiding citizens”
“Guns aren't responsible for shooting”, John Monroe with Georgia’s second amendment- “we’ve got a mental health problem in this country that needs to be addressed It's people who are pulling the trigger the guns aren't shooting themselves and that's what we need to concentrate on is the people that are shooting and not
the guns.”
Trang 8The president is on the hunt for 10 senate republicans to vote with him on these
proposals or some versions of these proposals, 10 being the number that would
be needed to pass them along with all of the senate democrats
Part 2
TIME's Person of the Year is not an award It is a marker of influence It is a reflection of impact, a way to capture the meaning of a moment It is a chance to recognize the people who led us or even enraged us, the people who amused or inspired us In this show, we'll recognize the Athlete and Entertainers of the year, the heroes who fought for us, and the visionary who captured our attention
All of these people and moments encapsulate 2021, today and in the years to come
Faced with crisis after crisis, we proved we are creative and resilient, with a long history
of extracting the possible from the impossible Humanity stands at a chaotic crossroads, but we do
so armed with strength and clarity of purpose and an eye always on the future because inspiration and innovation continue to rewrite our story and extend our story to the stars themselves This year, new voices and images demanded our attention while we got our first glimpse of the metaverse to come
And at the close of 2021, we continue to wrestle with the reality of COVID-19's impact on everything from the global economy to our holiday traditions, but it has also taught us that humanity can rise above, that our fight against hate and inequity continues to make progress, and that together,
we can be better And for nearly 100 years, TIME has been there to cover it, to document it and to consistently show the world what the word influence means This is TIME's Person of the Year
Part 3
F = Heidi, M1 = Presenter, M2 = Rob
Trang 9M1: My guests today, Heidi Stokes and Rob Aslett, are both sports commentators and I’ve
invited them along to discuss the issue of gyms – why they’re so popular, whether they do us any good Heidi, turning to you first
F: Hi!
M1: According to media reports, the government’s thinking about harnessing the popularity
of gyms in a campaign to tackle the problem of obesity What’s your take on that?
F: Well there are, on the face of it, attractive aspects to the proposal The obesity epidemic is,
if we’re to believe the figures, a social emergency and, as many people have argued, the government has so far concentrated largely on the eating aspect of prevention – school dinners, junk-food ads, food labelling – but exercise must be made part of the solution Yet there are
other significant issues, aren’t there Rob?
M2: Let’s face it The kind of collective problems we face with obesity and inactivity require hugely
complex solutions, and that means involving a whole host of stakeholders and bodies It’s not that the fitness industry can't play a part, it’s just that we have some serious reservations about the government teaming up with the leisure industry, which generally serves those people who are already the least likely to be inactive and obese
F: The bottom line is that you’re looking at a majority of the adult population that's inactive I have
no problem with gyms delivering their health-and-fitness and leisure products; I'm a consumer of
them, but they're ill-equipped to tackle the wider issues
M1: But even for those who can afford to go to gyms regularly, isn’t the whole enterprise full
of contradictions?
F: Indeed it is Personal trainers may make you more motivated and fit, but they can't make
you too motivated or too fit or you'd stop needing them It isn't in a gym's interest to encourage
you to build exercise into your daily life, because that would cut into gym hours It’s true that they’re often the only option in cities, if there are few parks, no bike lanes, bad weather or
whatever, but it’s also true that gyms have a vested interest in keeping you indoors
Trang 10M1: And people lose motivation, don’t they Rob?
M2: Gyms can be the site of healthy activity, there's no question that good ones provide
expertise, motivation, role models – all tremendously beneficial But if that's the only time there's physical activity in your daily life, chances are that it's the first thing that goes when life gets busy, when your disposable income gets crunched or when you've got something more fun to do It's the classic example of someone who takes an elevator up to a club and can't be bothered to climb the stairs Stairs are cheaper, but they don't come with all the bells and whistles I understand as much as anybody the appeal of the bells and whistles, but it's an awfully expensive way to not necessarily get healthy
M1: And gyms come in for a lot of criticism for their marketing already, don’t they Heidi?
F: Well, the temptation for the gym is to sign up as many people as possible, then gamble on
them not turning up – a kind of fitness pyramid scheme That's absolutely true of some gyms, but not the majority A business model that's almost entirely reliant on revenue from membership dues means that it's in their interest to sign up a lot of people But if everyone who was a member turned up, then they'd be overcrowded and the facilities themselves wouldn't hold up There's a calculated risk obviously, but good clubs will take that into account, and use reasonably accurate projections They know that people will go at different times of day, in terms of their occupations and their personal lives etc And the aim of the game at the end of the day is to hang on to them, so you don’t want them turning up and finding all the equipment’s
occupied
M1: So how can gyms keep people coming, Rob?
M2: It's getting them in and exceeding their expectations every time they come in that's
important Exercise has changed more to being a part of my life It's about wellness, about feeling good spiritually as well as physically, as well as mentally The same amount of people joins a gym for relaxation and to release stress as they do to tone up or lose weight So, in marketing a club, if your message isn't one that gives this whole picture of mind, body and spirit, you're appealing to just a percentage of the potential market It’s why the growth of the
Trang 11mind-body idea, like yoga and Pilates, has been so important to the industry It's pulling in groups of people who’d probably never have joined a gym if those options weren’t there
M1: Rob, Heidi, there we must leave it … thanks
Part 4
M = Male presenter, F1 = Priya, F2= A teacher, F3= Female presenter
M: Priya created Century as a way of addressing the problems she saw in the education sector F1: We were still delivering a very one-size-fits-all education Every child deserves a personalized,
differentiated experience but that’s really, really difficult, nearly impossible to provide in every educational setting The second issue was that teachers spent more than half of their time 60% of
their time micro-marking, micro-assessing, trying to do the admin that was related to the children
and not actually spending most of the time teaching
F2: Before, we would have to spend hours and hours marking We don’t have to do that now It
shows us the data and we can see whether it’s green, amber, red we can see where the children are working at and we can then pick up on those points to help the children
M1: With children in Britain already spending on average almost four hours a day online some may
worry about increased use of technology in the classroom but Laurie Davis reckons it’s crucial
F2: Although all children have a laptop, we are not on it all day every day We manage what we are doing and we implement it into our learning in a blended learning approach At the end of day,
every job out there now is using some sort of computer So we need to lay those foundations And
if that is how AI develops to give those children a better future then I’m excited about that journey
M: For twins, Julia and Colin MeCey technology has helped give them an altogether different
learning experience They attend a virtual public school - “Are you taking British and world literature?”- which provides them with the equipment they need to learn remotely
Julia: So I’m taking a fine arts course, so in my box I have clay and some paintbrushes and then
some acrylic colored paint
M: Julia moved to full-time remote-learning during the pandemic but Colin was a trailblazer,
switching to e-education in 2019
