Neil: So what is it she says

no one wishes for? si nikdo nepřeje?

Catherine: Well, she says no one wishes

they were shorter! byly kratší!

Neil: And that's right. She said that tall

people relish their height. This means |genießen|||| |Enjoy|||| |楽しむ|||| |apreciam|||| |насолоджуються|||| lidé si vychutnávají svou výšku. To znamená.

they enjoy being tall, they get ||enjoying|||

great satisfaction from it. |Zufriedenheit|| |immense pleasure||

Catherine: And another point she makes

is that many people embellish their ||||verschönern| ||||exaggerate| ||||enriquecem| je, že mnoho lidí si přikrášluje své

height, if asked. This means they say

they are taller than they actually are. Now,

to embellish a fact means to |Exaggerate||||

people generally tend to even embellish |||||upiększać lidé mají obecně tendenci dokonce přikrášlovat

what their height is when you

ask them what it is.

Neil: She goes on to explain how some Neil: Dále vysvětluje, jak se některé

research has shown that shorter people výzkum ukázal, že nižší lidé

are less likely to get jobs, less likely to get |较少|||||||| mají menší šanci získat zaměstnání, menší šanci získat 更不太可能获得工作，更不太可能获得

Here's Tanya S Osensky again.

that the premium for height is over $2000

Neil: For women it's a bit less, but still

significant at $1000 an inch. considerable|||

Catherine: And this disparity - or Catherine: A tento rozdíl - nebo

difference - between the salaries of taller

and shorter people, is an example

of heightism. Shorter people, she says, |Größendiskriminierung|||| výškového přístupu. Říká, že nižší lidé,

are getting fewer jobs and ||receiving fewer jobs|| se snižuje počet pracovních míst a

fewer benefits because they are short.

Neil: Well, one person who certainly

quiz question. The tallest person who

has lived, Robert Wadlow. We asked how

tall he was, was it: a) 2.71m;

b) 2.72m or c) 2.73m?

What did you say, Catherine?

Catherine: I said 2.71m.

Neil: Well, you were almost there. The

correct answer was b) 2.72m.

Congratulations if you got that right.
