For 14 years, we do it every Friday around this time. We come out and we feed people, right?
14年来，我们每周五差不多这个时候都会做这件事。我们出来给人们分发食物，对吧？

We feed them first the spiritual word of God, we call it and then, we give them physical food.
我们先给他们“精神食粮”，然后再给他们提供物质食物。

We let them know that "Hey, you don't have to come to listen to the word of God in order for us to give you food.
我们让他们知道：“你们不必为了让我们给你们食物而来听上帝的教诲。

If you just want to come when we're serving, you can come when we're serving.
如果你只想在我们供应餐点的时候来，那你可以直接来。

You don't have to listen to me. I'm nothing special. I don't have nothing great to say to you except for what's in the word of God."
你不必听我的。我没什么特别的。除了上帝箴言外，我没什么溢美之语要对你说。”

The hardest hit place in Los Angeles, still praising God, still giving him the glory, still coming out on Friday nights.
在洛杉矶疫情最严重的地方，人们仍在赞美上帝，仍在颂扬他的荣耀，仍在周五晚上外出。

And what I've started to notice is happening is that more and more people are coming back every week.
我开始注意到，每周都有越来越多的人出来加入我们。

There are all kinds of people who come here. There are people who are housed.
来这里的人形形色色。有的人就住在这里。

There are about 9,000 people who are housed right here in Los Angeles.
洛杉矶大约有9000人都住在这里。

And what's in Skid Row, what's called Single Residency Occupancies, right there are little small apartments, kind of like the size of a jail cell, a small jail cell.
在贫民区里，所谓的单人居住单元是什么样的呢？那些公寓可能就跟监狱的单间一样小。

There's a lot of good people down here, but it's like the has-beens, the ex-gang members, the ex-pimps or prostitutes, ex-parolees, ex-probation or their family just forgot about them.
这里有很多好人，但是这里也是很多“过气人”的收容所，前帮派成员、前皮条客、前妓女、刑满释放人员、缓刑期满人员，或者是那些被家人遗忘的人。

So, they end up coming down here. It's something down here and it's kind of like Paul, when he said in the church, during the, excuse me, "you can stay down here or you can go to heaven".
他们最终来到了这里。这里有一些事情，有点像保罗在教堂里说的，“你可以留在这里，也可以去天堂”。

When you come to Skid Row, you have to put on your Ephesians 6:18, your whole armor of God.
当你来到贫民窟时，你得穿上以弗所书6:18所提到的上帝所赐的全副军装。

Because even when you don't want to do something, you see somebody doing something, so you end up wanting to do it.
因为即使你原本不想做某事，看到别人在做，你最终也会想做。

About 400,000 people are at risk of facing eviction due to COVID-19 and all our elected officials are doing are passing eviction moratoriums.
大约40万人因新冠疫情面临被驱逐的风险，而我们所有的民选官员都在努力暂停驱逐令。

Well, after the moratorium, somebody has to pay that rent, right?
暂停之后，总得有人付那笔租金，对吧？

And so, after the moratorium, all landlords are going to do is proceed with evictions, right, with the eviction process.
在暂停令结束之后，那些房东还是会继续驱逐弱势群体。

And so, we're asking them to cancel rent. It's small movements like this that will shift theparadigm. We can't focus on the hate.
我们要求他们免租。这样的小举动会改变现状。我们不能只关注仇恨。

We can't focus on what's going on in Washington D.C. We need to focus right here at home, individually with each person you meet and see.
我们不能只关注华盛顿特区发生的事情。我们需要把注意力放在国内，着眼于每一个遇到和看到的人。

Dolphins are what we call charismatic megafauna, which means that people view them as charismatic.
海豚被我们称作是魅力大型动物，因为它们真的很有魅力。

People get excited about some animals more than they get excited about others.
人们有时候更偏爱某一类动物。

But that's okay, because then we can use that to get them to conserve in general.
但没关系，因为我们可以利用人们的偏爱去保护更多动物。

So, if they're conserving the dolphins that means we're conserving their habitat, which means we are conserving all the animals that live in that habitat as well.
如果人们保护海豚，就会保护它们的栖息地，这也意味着我们同时也在保护生活在那个栖息地的所有动物。

Hi, guys. My name is Dr. Kelly Jaakkola. I am a cognitive researcher, right now work with dolphins.
我是凯利·贾科拉博士，从事认知研究，现在主要研究海豚。

You want to do a high five? No? This one? You can't really reach. I know it is hard to reach up here.
想击个掌吗？不想？这个呢？你其实够不到。我知道这个高度你够不到。

For other people, they might get inspired by the dolphin's beauty or their athleticism etc.
其他人可能对海豚美丽的外形或是运动天赋更感兴趣。

I know. Very nice. I know. Oh, you want to come play too? What do you think?
我知道。非常好。我知道。你也想来玩吗？你觉得呢？

For me it was watching them think. Wow, now it's yourturn? Now it's yourturn?
我喜欢看着它们思考。现在轮到你了？

So, Dolphin Research Center is a non-profit research and education facility in the Florida Keys.
海豚研究中心是佛罗里达群岛的一个非营利性研究和教育机构。

And there are a number of questions that you can't answer in the wild.
在自然界里有许多问题你无法找到答案。

You'll see situations where they seem to be cooperating. They seem to be doing the same thing at the same time.
有时候你会看到海豚似乎在合作。也有可能它们只是恰好在同一时间做着同样的事情。

But you can't tell from just looking at that whether or not they're understanding cooperation or if they're just doing something at the same time.
但你仅凭观察无法判断他们是在理解合作，还是只是同时在做某件事。

In this study we set up a game. And the game was, we had two buttons and to win the game, the dolphins had to press the buttons at the same time within a one second window which is really, really close.
在这项研究中，我们设置了一个游戏。游戏内容是，我们有两个按钮，而为了赢得游戏，海豚必须在同一秒的时间窗口内同时按下按钮，这个时间差真的非常短。

So, in order to show that they understand cooperation, you have to sometimes send them at different times.
为了表明他们理解合作，你有时必须让他们在不同时间出发。

Okay, so, Reese was sent first. And you see he doesn't go immediately to his button. And now Delta was sent and we'll see, and they did it!
里斯先被放出来了。但它并没有直接去触碰按钮。现在德尔塔也被放出来了，我们来看看，他们做到了！

By the end of this study, they were pressing an average of a third of a second apart which is really tight coordination.
研究结束时，它们触碰按钮的平均时差是三分之一秒，这是非常紧密的合作。

The most obvious next step is okay, well how are they doing it? Are the dolphins using some sort of verbal communication?
接下来最明显的问题是，它们是如何做到的呢？海豚在用某种语言交流吗？

Maybe they are using synchrony, so maybe they sync up with each other and swim together etc.
也许它们使用了共时性，也许它们会彼此同步，一起游动等等。

Other questions we can look at are: are there ways that that cooperation in the wild might be disrupted?
我们还可以研究其他问题：是否有一些因素会扰乱它们的合作？

So, for example, if they are using a kind of vocal communication, then noise pollution might get in the way of that.
例如，如果海豚在以某种形式的语言交流，那么噪音污染就可能会干扰这种交流。

Alright, are you guys ready? Any sort of facility has to have a way of supporting their animals.
好了，你们准备好了吗？任何动物机构都必须找到方法保护这些动物。

And for us, that largely comes from the visitors that walk through the door.
我们的方式主要就是让人们前来参观。

One of the big roles that marine mammal facilities play is getting people to make a connection in order to get people to conserve and then care.
海洋哺乳动物机构的一个重要作用就是帮助人们与动物建立联系，然后让他们去保护动物、关爱动物。

And it's that moment of connection that is the start of conservation mindedness.
这种联系正是动物保护意识的开端。

You know, it's fine to give people information. Information is great.
进行科普是很好的。

But that information is only useful if people care enough to actually go out and do something.
但只有当人们足够关心并真正走出去采取行动时，这些科普才有意义。

Ricochet was trained as a service dog but she was not placed because she likes to chase little animals, critters, squirrels.
跳跳曾被训练为服务犬，但她还没有正式上岗，因为她喜欢追逐小动物，例如小松鼠。

She would not make it as a service dog, but she also surfs. So, she surfs with people who have disabilities. So now I call her 'a surface dog'.
她无法成为服务犬，但她会冲浪。她会与残疾人士一同冲浪。现在我叫她“冲浪犬”。

She was eight weeks old. I had her in a kiddie pool and there was a boogie board and I kind of tapped it to invite her on it and she climbed on and had really good balance.
她当时才八周大。我把她放在一个儿童泳池里，泳池里有一块冲浪板，我轻轻拍了拍冲浪板，示意她爬上去，她就爬了上去，而且平衡感非常好。

So, from that I just continued playing around with it. I lay on the board and she stands behind me.
从此以后我就一直跟她这么玩儿。我躺在趴板上，跳跳站在我身后，

There's a pusher, you know, another individual that will push them into the wave and Ricochet is really good at balancing the board for Hunter and in the beginning of his surfing that he needed that. I'm the only one who surfs in the family.
趴板后面有一个推手，他会把他们推到浪中，跳跳真的很擅长给亨特保持平衡，他初次冲浪真的很需要这样的帮助。我是家里唯一会冲浪的人。

There's a lot of trust that goes on with it, a lot of empowerment, especially kids with autism that don't get to really do anything on their own.
这其中蕴含着大量的信任和极大的自主空间，尤其是对自闭症儿童而言，他们通常无法真正独立完成任何事情。

There's usually supervision, but when they're in the water with Ricochet, they feel in control.
通常都会有监督员，但是在水里和跳跳在一起，他们会觉得自己完全能掌控。

And I always say to them, "Thank you for teaching my dog how to surf."
我总是对他们说：“谢谢你们教会我的狗狗冲浪。”

So, they feel like they're the ones helping the dog instead. And it's just such an empowering feeling for the child.
他们反而觉得自己是在帮助狗狗。这对于孩子来说是一个赋能的过程。

I'm Staff Sergeant Persons Griffith and I'm a PTSD awareness advocate.
我是上士珀森斯·格里菲思，是创伤后应激障碍宣传者。

How was it? It's good. It's nice having her out there. It helps. When I met Ricochet, that was one of the more significant overwhelming moments in my life.
感觉怎么样？挺好的。有她真好。很有帮助。遇到跳跳是我人生中的重要时刻。

I was having a really hard time and so I finally had a breakthrough and I realized how PTSD was affecting me. Ricochet was like a mirror for me.
我当时真的过得很艰难，后来我终于有了突破，意识到创伤后应激障碍对我产生了怎样的影响。跳跳对我来说就像一面镜子。

You can't hide things from her. So, she already knows exactly what's going on.
你不能对她隐瞒任何事情。她已经完全清楚发生了什么事。

And she just kind of reaches into your soul and pulls it out in front of you and says, you know, brings it to your attention and says, you know, this is what's going on.
她就好像能把你的灵魂拽到你面前，让你看清楚自己的模样，然后说，这就是正在发生的事情。

This is how you really feel. Let's deal with this. Let's accept it. Let's talk about it.
这就是你真正的感受，让我们一起解决，一起接受，让我们谈一谈。

After I got divorced, I moved down to Carlsbad to live with my parents and kind of recover from the divorce and the PTSD from the divorce.
离婚后，我搬到卡尔斯巴德和父母同住，想从离婚和离婚后的创伤后应激障碍中恢复过来。

And we had physical abuse in that, you know, we had like the emotional abuse, all that abuse. So, I was kind of broken.
我曾经遭遇过家暴，还有情感上的虐待。我有点崩溃了。

When I met Ricochet, I felt like she really was like the glue that put my soul, my soul was broken and she put those pieces back together again and helped me rebuild my soul and rebuild my being.
当我遇到跳跳时，我觉得她像胶水一样把我残缺不堪的灵魂重新拼凑起来，帮我重塑了灵魂，重建了自我。

Sometimes she's very assertive as far as like she sticks her nose on you. She, earlier today, she paws at you because she knows like okay, you need to just stop.
有时她非常有主见，就好像她会对你刨根问底。她今天早些时候，会用爪子扒拉你，因为她觉得你需要慢下来了。

Look in my eyes, relax. And she just relieves like that stress or anxiety that you might have.
仿佛在说，放松，看着我的眼睛。她会减轻你身上的压力或者焦虑。

And what I label Ricochet as is emotional rescue. So, she connects with people instantly and goes very deep into their soul with what she can pick up from them.
我认为跳跳拥有感情救赎的能力。她能立刻与人建立联系，并凭借从他们身上捕捉到的信息深入到他们的灵魂深处。

And then she alerts and responds to whatever that emotion is. It's something that is instinctual. I didn't teach it to her.
然后她会察觉到这种情绪并做出相应的反应。这是一种本能反应。我并没有教过她。

So, it's been a progression of growth, of me learning more about what dogs are capable of. So, the biggest thing is me listening to her.
这是一个不断成长的过程，是我更多地了解狗能做什么的过程。最重要的是我要倾听她的想法。

Ricochet's the type of dog that needs human interaction. She's 12-and-a-half.
跳跳是那种需要与人类互动的狗。她已经十二岁半了。

So, I was afraid that after two months of not being with people, that she would check out and her life would end sooner than it should.
我担心两个月不和人交往会让她感到不适，进而导致她过早死亡。

So, after two months, I thought a lot and did a lot of research and decided that the benefit far outweighs the risk to meet with people one-on-one. We call them house calls or curbside comfort.
两个月后，我想了很多，也做了很多研究，最终认定，与人们一对一见面利大于弊。我们称之为上门服务或路边安慰。

Over two thirds of Brits agree that being able to laugh at yourself, or what we call 'self-deprecating humour', is a defining part of British culture, according to a recent survey by the charity Comic Relief. British comedian Sir Lenny Henry says it's not about putting yourself down, it's about bringing people together. After years of doing stand-up comedy, Lenny says that laughing at yourself is "one of the quickest ways to feel connected to a room full of strangers". But when is it good, and when is it bad, to make fun of yourself? Can it be taken too far?
根据慈善机构 Comic Relief 最近的一项调查，超过三分之二的英国人认为，能够嘲笑自己，或者我们所说的“自嘲式幽默”，是英国文化的一个决定性组成部分。 英国喜剧演员伦尼·亨利爵士表示，这不是为了贬低自己，而是为了让人们团结在一起。 经过多年的单口喜剧表演，莱尼表示，嘲笑自己是“与一个充满陌生人的房间建立联系的最快方式之一”。 但是，什么时候取笑自己是好事，什么时候是坏事呢？ 会不会太过分了？

When a person points out their own flaws in a light-hearted way, it can make them seem more human and make others feel comfortable. A 2025 study called 'When Laughter Hurts and Helps' linked the joy of being laughed at with higher social connectedness, in other words, a greater sense of belonging to a group. Conversely, the trait 'gelotophobe', or someone who fears being laughed at, has been linked to greater friendship avoidance and lower life satisfaction. Even leaders might benefit from self-deprecating humour. Lecturer at Stanford Graduate School of Business Naomi Bagdonas says that for today's leaders, 'Humour is an elixir for trust and an antidote to arrogance'.
当一个人以轻松的方式指出自己的缺点时，可以让他们看起来更有人情味，也让别人感到舒服。 2025 年一项名为“当笑声伤害和帮助时”的研究将被嘲笑的快乐与更高的社会联系联系起来，换句话说，就是对一个群体有更强的归属感。 相反，“害怕被嘲笑”的特质，或害怕被嘲笑的人，与更大程度的回避友谊和较低的生活满意度有关。 即使是领导者也可能从自嘲式幽默中受益。 斯坦福大学商学院讲师内奥米·巴格多纳斯 (Naomi Bagdonas) 表示，对于当今的领导者来说，“幽默是信任的灵丹妙药和傲慢的解药”。

Making lightof negative situations can also be a coping mechanism. Imagine you're working on a group project, and something goes wrong. While everyone is panicking and trying to find someone to blame, you say sarcastically, "Well, this is going well!" This gives people permission to laugh a bit, and they might feel more positively about the situation. The challenge doesn't vanish, but at least people feel less tense and could feel more able to deal with the situation. A 2024 study published in Europe's Journal of Psychology found that maintaining a humorous perspective when things go wrong can lead to greater resilience.
淡化负面情况也可以成为一种应对机制。 想象一下，您正在开展一个小组项目，并且出现了问题。 当每个人都惊慌失措并试图寻找责任时，你讽刺地说：“好吧，一切进展顺利！” 这让人们可以笑一笑，他们可能会对这种情况感到更积极。 挑战并没有消失，但至少人们感觉不那么紧张，并且感觉更有能力应对这种情况。 欧洲《心理学杂志》2024 年发表的一项研究发现，在出现问题时保持幽默的观点可以带来更大的恢复力。

Of course, there's always a balance. While self-deprecating humour can bring people closer and make bad situations less overwhelming, it's important that it doesn't come from a place of bitterness and self-hatred. It's best to make jokes about yourself only once you've made peace with the flaw or mistake you're making fun of.
当然，平衡总是存在的。 虽然自嘲式幽默可以拉近人与人之间的距离，让糟糕的情况不至于那么难以承受，但重要的是它不能来自于痛苦和自我憎恨。 最好只有当你接受了自己所取笑的缺点或错误之后，才可以拿自己开玩笑。

The Israeli military said on Friday that one of the bodies released by Hamas did not belong to any of the hostages held in Gaza, accusing Hamas of violating an already shaky cease-fire.
以色列军方周五表示，哈马斯释放的一具尸体不属于任何被关押在加沙的人质，指责哈马斯违反了本已摇摇欲坠的停火协议。

The military said two of the bodies were identified as infant Kfir Bibas and his four-year-old brother Ariel,
军方表示，其中两具尸体被确认为婴儿Kfir Bibas和他四岁的哥哥Ariel，

while a third body that was supposed to be their mother Shiri was found not to match with any hostage and remain unidentified.
而第三具尸体，本应是他们的母亲Shiri，但发现与任何人质都不匹配，因此身份不明。

The military said in a statement, "This is a violation of utmost severity by the Hamas terrorist organization, which is obliged under the agreement to return four deceased hostages."
军方在一份声明中表示：“这是哈马斯恐怖组织极其严重的违反行为，根据协议，哈马斯有义务归还四名已故人质。”

The family of hostage Oded Lifshitz said in a statement that his body had been formally identified.

在一群巴勒斯坦人和数十名武装哈马斯武装分子的注视下，巴勒斯坦武装分子在精心策划的公开展示中交出了四具黑色棺材。

The purported remains of the boys, their mother, and Lifshitz were handed over under the Gaza cease-fire agreement reached last month with the backing of the U.S. and themediationof Qatar and Egypt.
根据上个月在美国支持、卡塔尔和埃及调解下达成的加沙停火协议，两名男孩、他们的母亲和Lifshitz的遗体被移交给以色列。

A police spokesperson told local TV that explosives were found on two other buses.
警方发言人告诉当地电视台，在另外两辆公共汽车上也发现了爆炸物。

The mayor of Bat Yam says it's a miracle no one was hurt. He says the buses had finished their routes and were in a parking lot.
巴特亚姆市长说，没有人受伤真是个奇迹。他说，公共汽车已经完成了路线，停在停车场。
