大家好啊，我是丹霞。您现在收听的是中文台词频道，最近火爆的电视剧《苍兰诀》你看了吗？剧里边儿有句台词关于东方青苍：

                        他骨子里仍旧是一个十恶不赦的坏人
                        但唯独在这个什么都不记得的人面前
                                         他想变得好一些
                                              ---《苍兰诀》/<Love Between Fairy and Devil>

He is still an unforgivable villain in his bones, but he wants to be better in front of this person who doesn't remember anything.

骨子里gǔzilǐ：内心 in one’s bones, in one’s heart of hearts 
仍旧 réngjiù：仍然, 还是 still

十恶不赦[shí è bú shè]: 赦意思是赦免[shè miǎn]remit(a punishment), pardon 
十恶不赦是形容犯了重大的罪行，而不能被饶恕。
perpetrate every conceivable crime and be unpardonably wicked; a crime which is past forgiving

唯独[wéi dú]：单单,只only
在……面前[zài … … miàn qián]：in face of, in front of

2. Top 3: Turismo en Cali, Colombia  

There's a video on TikTok in which a user takes a jar of seasoning called "Everything But the Bagel" and carefully separates the ingredients into small piles to find out the secret to the recipe.

The video has been viewed almost 2 million times — a sign of just how popular this seasoning mix, made by US company Trader Joe's, has become.

People like to put it on top of bagels and use it in lots of different meals.

However, fans of the mix have been finding out that it's not welcome everywhere in the world.

Signs have been posted at Incheon Airport in Seoul, telling passengers they can't bring jars of the seasoning into the country.

The reason is that one of the ingredients is banned in South Korea.

The mix contains things like sesame seeds, dried garlic, dried onion and salt — but poppy seeds are the problem.

Poppy seeds are banned in South Korea because they are narcotic-related items, according to the airport. The ban is not new but travelers have said that airports are now cracking down on the seasoning mix.

The seeds are also banned in a number of other countries, including Saudi Arabia and Singapore.

The poppy plant is used to make drugs like heroin and morphine, although the seeds don't contain any opiates.

However, the country worries that the seeds could be contaminated by opiates.

In fact, in the US, members of the armed forces have been advised not to eat products containing poppy seeds in case they affect the results of drug tests.

Drug tests can be very sensitive but experts say that it would be almost impossible to eat enough poppy seeds to feel any narcotic effect.
