TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨

TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨

TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨幸福的人为什么会出轨?人们说起不忠,真正是指什么?为什么人们会认为男人出轨都是出于厌倦和对紧密关系的恐惧,而女人出轨则是出于寂寞和对亲密关系的渴求呢?对于出轨人的建议是什么?下面是小编为大家收集关于TED英语演讲:幸福的人为什么会出轨,欢迎借鉴参考。

幸福的人为什么会出轨Why do we cheat? And why do happy people cheat? And when we say "infidelity," what exactly do we mean? Is it a hookup, a love story, paid sex, a chat room, a massage with a happy ending? Why do we think that men cheat out of boredom and fear of intimacy, but women cheat out of loneliness and hunger for intimacy? And is an affair always the end of a relationship?我们为何出轨? 为何幸福之人也会出轨? 我们所谓的“不忠”到底指的是什么? 是一夜情?爱情故事? 有偿性服务?私聊? 还是特殊按摩服务? 为什么我们认为男人出轨是因为寻求刺激或是害怕亲密关系,而女人出轨是因为孤独或是渴求亲密关系? 婚外情是不是意味着婚姻已走到尽头?For the past 10 years, I have traveled the globe and worked extensively with hundreds of couples who have been shattered by infidelity. There is one simple act of transgression that can rob a couple of their relationship, their happiness and their very identity: an affair. And yet, this extremely common act is so poorly understood. So this talk is for anyone who has ever loved.在过去十年间,我走遍世界走访了数百对夫妻,他们都因出轨而心力交瘁。

当然,现在情况不一样了,不过这只是最近发生的事。

It was several months ago that I gave my very first major public talk at t he Forbes 30 Under 30 summit:1,500 brilliant people, all under the age o f 30. That meant that in 1998, the oldest among the group were only 14, and theyoungest, just four. I joked with them that some might only have heard o f me from rap songs. Yes, I'm in rap songs. Almost 40 rap songs.几个月前,我在《福布斯》杂志举办的“30岁以下”峰会(Under 30 Summit)上发表了首次公开演讲。

现场1500位才华横溢的与会者都不到30岁。

这意味着1998年,他们中最年长的是14岁,而最年轻的只有4岁。

我跟他们开玩笑道,他们中有些人可能只在说唱歌曲里听到过我的名字。

是的,大约有40首说唱歌曲唱过我。

But the night of my speech, a surprising thing happened. At the age of 4 1, I was hit on by a 27-year-old guy. I know, right He was charming and I was flattered, and I declined. You know what his unsuccessful pickup line was He could make me fe el 22 again. I realized later that night, I'm probably the only person over 40 who does not want to be 22 again. 但是,在我演讲当晚,发生了一件令人吃惊的事——我作为一个41岁的女人,被一个27岁的男孩示爱。

TED中英对照演讲稿-我如何爱上一条鱼

TED中英对照演讲稿-我如何爱上一条鱼Dan Barber: How I fell in love with a fish我一生中接触过很多鱼。

只有两种是我的最爱。

第一种,是源于激情。

它是一条美丽的鱼,美味,纹理细腻,肉质丰富,是菜单上最受欢迎的鱼。

多么美的鱼啊!(笑声)更好的是,它是依照最高标准养殖的,目的是保持它的可持续性的。

而卖他的人也会感到心安理得。

So, I've known a lot of fish in my life. I've loved only two. That first one, it was more like a passionate affair. It was a beautiful fish, flavorful, textured, meaty, a best-seller on the menu. What a fish. (Laughter) Even better, it wasfarm-raised to the supposed highest standards of sustainability. So you could feel good about selling it.我曾经沉醉于这美丽的关系中,时间大概延续了几个月。

有一天,这个公司的高层打电话给我邀请我参加一个活动并就渔业的可持续性发展发表演说。

我说,“当然可以”。

这个公司正是要试图解决一个对于我们厨师来说正在变得不可想象的问题。

“我们如何把鱼类留在菜单上?”I was in a relationship with this beauty for several months. One day, the head of the company called and asked if I'd speak at an event about the farm'ssustainability. "Absolutely," I said. Here was a company trying to solve what's become this unimaginable problem for our chefs. How do we keep fish on our menus?在过去的50年中,我们从各个海洋中捕鱼就像是砍伐树木。

英语阅读:恋爱让你更聪明的5个理由(英汉对照)1. Marry someone similar to you, if a bit smarter找一个和你一样聪明、甚至更聪明的人结婚A Seattle Longitudinal Study found that the most stable relationships were those in which people were similar in intelligence, flexibility of attitudes, social responsibility, and education levels. Researchers also found that after 14 years together, spouses with the better grasp of verbal meanings and word fluency had pulled the lower-functioning spouses up to their level.一项西雅图纵向研究发现,那些在智力、态度灵活性、社会责任感以及教育水平方面相似的夫妻,关系最稳定。

研究人员还发现,共同生活14年后,夫妻双方中对语义和语言流畅性掌握得更好的一方,会将另一方的能力也提升到和自己相同的水平。

2. Hold hands whenever possible只要可能,牵住爱人的手In addition to creating feelings of warmth and closeness, holding hands can help inoculate you from stress. One study using brain scans found that when married women were told they were about to receive an electric shock, just holding their husbands’ hands minimized their brains’response to the threat. Women in the closest relationships experienced the greatest decrease in stress-related brain activity.手牵手不仅可以让人产生温暖和亲近的感觉,还可以帮助你减轻压力。

TED英文演讲:什么叫爱情Stacey素来很痴迷一对爱人的偶遇全过程。

她邀约了摄像师Alec帮助讨论这一议案,他们在情人节,一起到拉斯维加参与全世界最盛大游戏的迅速幽会,又来访内华达州较大的离休人员小区,他们解除了一个谜,便是一对爱人如何由第一次偶遇到一起一同日常生活的过程。

下边是我为大伙儿搜集有关TED英文演讲:什么叫爱情,热烈欢迎参考参照。

演讲题目:什么叫爱情?择一城终老,遇一人相守!演讲人:Alec·Soth & Stacey·Baker发言稿Alec Soth: So about 10 years ago, I got a call from a woman in Texas, Stacey Baker, and she'd seen some of my photographs in an art exhibition and was wondering if she could commission me to take a portrait of her parents. Now, at the time I hadn't met Stacey, and I thought this was some sort of wealthy oil tycoon and I'd struck it rich, but it was only later that I found out she'd actually taken out a loan to make this happen.Alec Soth: 大约十年前,我接到德州市一位女性的电話,便是她,Stacey Baker。

她在一场艺术展览上看了我的一些摄影图片,随后想问是不是能够请我来为她的爸爸妈妈照相。

那时候,我都沒有看到Stacey,我曾认为她会是一位石油大亨,要我一夜暴富。

TED英文演讲:对爱和永世的探寻

TED英文演讲:对爱和永世的探寻

TED英文演讲:对爱和永世的探寻Sirius XM通讯卫星广播电台的创办人Martine Rothblatt如今领导干部一家药业公司,为少见病症(包含解救自身闺女性命的一种药品)给予拯救生命的药品。

此外,她已经勤奋储存她喜爱的数据文档中的女性的观念......及其爱人智能机器人。

在与TED的查尔斯德克尔的演出舞台会话中,利文斯顿布拉特共享她的感情,真实身份,想像力和无尽概率的强劲小故事。

下边是我为大伙儿搜集有关TED英文演讲:对爱和永世的探寻,热烈欢迎参考参照。

My daughter, my wife, our robot, and the quest for immortality演讲人:Martine Rothblatt/ 汉语发言稿 /查尔斯德克尔:我觉得大家那样大家先谈一谈你的日常生活,跟大伙儿共享一下你以前看一下的一些相片。

我们就从这张逐渐。

这名到底是谁?马蒂娜利文斯顿布拉特:它是我和的儿子便于。

他那时候大概五岁。

它是在尼日利亚照的,就在我刚参与完多伦多市的律师资格考試。

克:好的。

但这看起来不太像马蒂娜。

马:是的。

那时候我还是男士,我是做为男士出世成长。

那就是在我做完变性手术,从乔治变成马蒂娜以前。

克:你是以乔治利文斯顿布拉特的真实身份成长的。

马:是的。

克:在拍完这张相片以后大约一年,你婚娶了一位美丽姑娘。

是一见钟情么?那时候是什么情况?马:确实是一见钟情。

我是在洛杉矶市的一个迪斯科舞厅遇上的碧娜。

之后大家住在了一起,但从我看到她的那一刻起,我也见到她所带上的动能。

我请她舞蹈。

她讲她也见到我所带的动能。

我那时候是个单身父亲,她是个单身母亲。

大家给彼此之间看过小孩的相片,如今大家早已在婚姻生活里幸福快乐的渡过了1/3个新世纪。

(欢呼声)克:那时你算作个趋之若鹜的创业人,做通讯卫星层面的工作中。

你那时候早已拥有2个取得成功的企业,随后你逐渐新的挑戰,思索怎样根据通讯卫星来转型广播节目。

给大家讲下这一。

Ted演讲:爱情魔力背后隐藏的秘密中英对照I and my colleagues Art Aron and Lucy Brown and others, have put 37 people who are madly in love into a functional MRI brain scanner. 17 who were happily in love, 15 who had just been dumped, and we're just starting our third experiment: studying people who report that they're still in love after 10 to 25 years of marriage. So, this is the short story of that research.我和阿尔特.阿伦、露西.布朗还有其他同事对37位处在恋爱不同阶段的人的大脑进行了核磁共振测试,其中17位正享受爱情带来的幸福,而15位则刚刚被甩。

我们刚刚开始第三项实验:研究那些在10到25年后仍然处在爱恋中的人们,接下来是关于这项研究的一些介绍。

In the jungles of Guatemala, in Tikal, stands a temple. It was built by the grandest Sun King, of the grandest city-state, of the grandest civilization ofthe Americas, the Mayas. His name was Jasaw Chan K'awiil. He stood over six feet tall. He lived into his 80s, and he was buried beneath this monument in 720 AD. And Mayan inscriptions proclaim that he was deeply in love with his wife. So, he built a temple in her honor, facing his. And every spring and autumn, exactly at the equinox, the sun rises behind his temple, and perfectly bathes her temple with his shadow. And as the sun sets behind her temple in the afternoon, it perfectly bathes his temple with her shadow. After 1,300 years, these two lovers still touch and kiss from their tomb.在危地马拉的丛林深处的提卡尔,矗立着一座神庙。

它由史上最显贵的太阳王建造,位于最壮丽的城邦,代表着美洲最伟大的古文明——玛雅。

这位君王,名曰Jasaw Chan K'awiil,他体型魁梧,并活到了八十余岁,在公元720葬于提卡尔神庙。

按照玛雅碑文的说法,他深爱着他的妻子。

他为妻子修建了一座神庙,正对着提卡尔神庙。

每到春分或秋分,太阳在提卡尔神庙后升起,而他妻子的神庙便浸浴在拖长的影子中。

到了下午落日之时,他妻子的神庙的影子也会完全遮罩在提卡尔神庙上。

直到1300年后的今天,这对恋人的陵墓依旧互相拥抱、亲吻。

Around the world, people love. They sing for love,they dance for love, they compose poems and stories about love. They tell myths and legends about love. They pine for love, they live for love, they kill for love, and they die for love. As Walt Whitman once said, he said, "Oh, I would stake all for you." Anthropologists have found evidence of romantic love in 170 societies. They've never found a society that did not have it.世界各地的人都有不同的爱情。

人们为爱情歌唱,人们因爱情起舞,人们通过诗赋和故事来抒发爱情。

人们讲述关于爱情的神话和传说。

人们渴望爱情,因爱而生,人们为爱着迷,甚至为爱而死。

沃尔特.惠特曼曾说过: "我愿意为你赌上我的一切!" 人类学家在170个社会中发现了爱情存在的证据。

爱情普遍地存在于每一个人类社会。

But love isn't always a happy experience. In one study of college students, they asked a lot of questions about love, but the two that stood out to me the most were, "Have you ever been rejected by somebody who you really loved?" And the second question was, "Have you ever dumped somebody who really loved you?" And almost 95 percent of both men and women said yes to both. Almost nobody gets out of love alive.但爱情并不总是愉快的经历。

在一项针对大学生的调查中,他们提出了很多关于爱情的问题,其中的两个特别让我印象深刻,一个是"你曾经被你真心爱着的人拒绝过吗?" 而另一个则是 "你曾经拒绝过真心爱着你的人吗?" 对于这两个问题,有95%的人作出了肯定的答复。

要活着走出爱情几乎是不可能的。

So, before I start telling you about the brain, I want to read for you what I think is the most powerful love poem on Earth. There's other love poems that are, of course, just as good, but I don't think this one can be surpassed. It was told by an anonymous Kwakiutl Indian of southern Alaska to a missionary in 1896, and here it is. I've never had the opportunity to say it before. "Fire runs through my body with the pain of loving you. Pain runs through my body with the fires of my love for you. Pain like a boil about to burst with my love for you, consumed by fire with my love for you.那么,在开始讲述关于大脑的事情前,我要读一段在我看来最富深情的情诗。

当然,很多情诗都很不错,但我认为它们都无法超越这首。

在1896年的南阿拉斯加,一位不知名的夸扣特尔印第安人把它讲述给了一名传教士。

这是我第一次当众读它。

"爱你之痛如熊熊烈焰穿透我的身体; 对你如火一般的热恋让疼痛贯穿我的身体。

痛楚如沸水,饱含我对你的爱,爱的火焰将其蒸发殆尽。

I remember what you said to me. I am thinking of your love for me. I am torn by your love for me. Pain and more pain -- where are you going with my love? I am told you will go from here. I am told you will leave me here. My body is numb with grief. Remember what I said, my love. Goodbye, my love, goodbye." Emily Dickinson once wrote, "Parting is all we need to know of hell." How many people have suffered in all the millions of years of human evolution? How many people around the world are dancing with elation at this very minute? Romantic love is one of the most powerful sensations on Earth.我仍记得你对我说的话,我想着你对我的爱,它将我的躯体撕裂。

疼痛,更多的疼痛,你要把我的爱带至何处? 你对我说,你将从这里出发; 你对我说,你将在这儿把我遗弃。

我因此悲痛,因此失去知觉。

带上我的只言片语,我的爱人! 再见,吾爱,再见! 艾米莉.狄金森曾写道, "人因离别而品尝地狱" 在人类百万余年的进化过程中,有多少人曾遭受这样的痛苦? 而此时此刻,世界各地又有多少人在尽情跳舞? 爱情是世上最有力的感情。
