2 While all the brothers were busy, you know, just being hyper-connected 24/7,

24/7, 也写作24-7, 读作twenty four seven, 意思就是all the time
We’re open for business 24/7.

另外还有一个相似的表达24/7/365, 或24-7-365, 意思一样, 强调的成分更重, 注意这2个都是比较口语化的表达
-When you’re a parent, you’re on duty 24/7/365. You never get off work.

视频答案

从第141篇开始, 我不再放出我自己听写的版本, 而是改为在答案上标记重难点, 大家特别注意一下我加粗的地方.

1 In fact, I have a feeling that if Lehman Brothers was Lehman Brothers and Sisters, they might still be around.

2 While all the brothers were busy, you know, just being hyper-connected 24/7,

3 maybe a sister would have noticed the iceberg,

4 because she would have woken up from a seven-and-a-half or eight-hour sleep and have been able to see the big picture.

5 So as we are facing all the multiple crises in our world at the moment, what is good for us on a personal level,

6 what’s going to bring more joy, gratitude, effectiveness in our lives and be the best for our own careers is also what is best for the world.

7 So I urge you to shut your eyes and discover the great ideas that lie inside us,

9 to shut your engines and discover the power of sleep.

10 Thank you.
