はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストの21回目です。最近話す速度が比較的ゆっくりだったので、今日はもうちょっと自然なスピードで話してみたいと思います。一つの文章も少し長くしますし、単語の説明も省略します。いつもより難しいかもしれませんが、英訳とトランスクリプトがあるので大丈夫だと思います。どうしてもわからない単語や表現があったら、レッスンやコメントでいつでも質問してください。

Hello. This is the podcast episode 21. My speaking speed has been relatively slow lately, so today I'm going to try to speak at a more natural speed. I'll also make each sentence a bit longer, and I'll skip explaining words. It may be more difficult than usual, but I think you'll be fine with the English translations and transcripts. If there are words or expressions that you just can't understand, you can always ask me in the lesson or in the comments.

私は今週の月曜日、歯科矯正をしました。私は子供の頃は歯並びが良かったのですが、大人になって、親知らずが生えてから、歯並びが悪くなってしまいました。悪くなったと言っても前歯だけで、生活に影響はなかったので、放っておいたのですが、矯正は思っていたより安かったので、することにしました。50万円ぐらいするイメージがありましたが、実際は20万円ぐらいでした。ヨーロッパではもっと安いらしいですね。したことがある人は知っているかもしれませんが、初日より、２日目の方が痛かったです。とくに２日目の夜が痛かったです。期間は半年ぐらいかかると言われました。前歯だけなので、子供がするような一般的な矯正に比べると短いです。ああいうのは２、３年かかるみたいですね。

I had my dental braces on Monday this week. I had good teeth as a child, but as an adult, after my wisdom teeth came in, my teeth became misaligned. My teeth were misaligned, but it was only the front teeth and it didn't affect my life, so I left it alone, but I decided to do it because orthodontics was cheaper than I thought it would be. I had an image that it would cost around 500,000 yen, but in fact it was around 200,000 yen. I heard that in Europe it's even cheaper. People who have done it before may know that the second day was more painful than the first day. Especially the second night was painful. I was told it would take about six months. It's only the front teeth, so it's shorter than the typical orthodontic treatment that children have. It seems like those things take a couple of years.

听众朋友你们好，欢迎来到茶时话中文，我是Penny。这是一个纯中文话题节目，我来和你用中文聊聊生活中有意思的话题，同时学习一些汉语词汇。让我们一边喝茶一边聊起来吧。

今天的话题是，你喜欢住在大城市，还是小城市呢？在我看来，它们。大城市有很多精彩的活动，也非常的包容。包容的意思就是，大城市能理解各种各样的人。相对来说，小城市就没有那么包容。因为小城市甚至乡村居住的人们见识比较少。而大城市的人们见多识广，如果你有比较小众的爱好，大城市的人见怪不怪，小城市的人可能会对你另眼相看呢。

大城市的压力也比较大。相比小城市，人们更难在大城市生存，因为生活水平高，消费也贵。在中国的大城市比如北京、上海和广州，消费可以非常的高，而收入却有高有低。为了生存，人们必须有很强的赚钱能力。小城市就比较安逸了，消费不高，生活节奏不快，人也随和。

你喜欢大城市还是小城市呢？欢迎留言，感谢收听，希望你喜欢，我们下次见。

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。今天想带大家一起学学一些跟“手”有关的词。
大家都知道手是我们身体的一部分，有很多词都有“手”这个字，例如我们每天都在用的手机。你现在很可能就是把手机拿在手里，听着这集播客吧。我们有左手和右手，如果你习惯用右手，那你就是右撇子，相反，习惯用左手的人就是左撇子。我们有五根手指，分别是大拇指，食指，中指，无名指和小拇指。
还有很多带有“手”的词，其实不是真的手，而是指“人”，在某个方面很熟练或者专业的人。例如，歌手就是唱歌唱得很好，把唱歌当做工作的人。我们可以说“他是一名歌手。”选手，选择的“选”，就是被选择去参加比赛的人。我们可以说“有几百名选手参加了这次的比赛。”对手，对面的“对”，和你竞争的人就是你的对手。我们可以说“这次比赛他轻松打败了对手。”助手，帮助的助，就是帮助你做一些工作的人。我们可以说“有了助手以后，李经理没有以前那么忙了。”高手，高低的高，就是在某个方面很厉害的人。我们可以说“他是一名象棋高手，经常赢比赛。”
你还知道哪些和“手”有关的词？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Daily Chinese With Yuli

和“手”有关的词 Words with“手” （Intermediate level）

The success of another woman is NOT a threat to your crown. In recent months, I have experienced women calling me names and giving snide remarks against me. What more, I have seen it being done to other women. When you are pursuing success as a woman, many are threatened by your presence.
