旅行  
lǚ xíng  

跟旅行团旅行不用操心交通、吃住这些事情，  
gēn lǚ xíng tuán lǚ xíng bú yòng cāo xīn jiāo tōng 、 chī zhù zhè xiē shì qing ，  

主要的景点导游都会带你去看，比较舒服。  
zhǔ yào de jǐng diǎn dǎo yóu dōu huì dài nǐ qù kàn ， bǐ jiào shū fu 。  

但是，参加旅行团旅行没有自由，行程都是安排好的，  
dàn shì ， cān jiā lǚ xíng tuán lǚ xíng méi yǒu zì yóu ， xíng chéng dōu shì ān pái hǎo de ，  

如果遇到不好的导游或者不好玩儿的地方，你也没有选择。  
rú guǒ yù dào bù hǎo de dǎo yóu huò zhě bù hǎo wánr de dì fang ， nǐ yě méi yǒu xuǎn zé 。  

如果有条件，旅行还是自己安排比较好。  
rú guǒ yǒu tiáo jiàn ， lǚ xíng hái shì zì jǐ ān pái bǐ jiào hǎo 。  

你可以自由地决定去看什么，去吃什么，住什么地方。  
nǐ kě yǐ zì yóu de jué dìng qù kàn shén me ， qù chī shén me ， zhù shén me dì fang 。  

你也有时间、有机会更好地了解当地的文化。  
nǐ yě yǒu shí jiān 、 yǒu jī huì gèng hǎo de liǎo jiě dāng dì de wén huà 。  

现在旅游网站很多，在网上订票、订房都很方便。  
xiàn zài lǚ yóu wǎng zhàn hěn duō ， zài wǎng shàng dìng piào 、 dìng fáng dōu hěn fāng biàn 。  

当然这样旅行会麻烦一些，  
dāng rán zhè yàng lǚ xíng huì má fan yì xiē ，  

但是，自己解决遇到的麻烦也是旅行的意义。  
dàn shì ， zì jǐ jiě jué yù dào de má fan yě shì lǚ xíng de yì yì 。

Welcome my friends to another episode of the Streetwise English Podcast. I'm your host Carl and Italki American English tutor. So today I want to talk to you about… This is the last day of January of the New Year 2023. And I just had a problem this morning. I was trying to download some software, I was trying to install software on my computer and I ran out of internal storage. And so I had my computer failed to install the software. And, I wanted to make the analogy of the human brain. And the computer. So a lot of times we feel stressed out and we have lots of things going on. In our mind our mind is completely full, feels like it's running without any extra storage space.

Spontaneous Phone Call With My Iranian Friend

Intermediate Chinese Listening：越来越热  Getting hotter

An annual event involving dirt, beer and cash once again drew dozens of competitors to a ski resort in Maine on October 12.

More than 30 couples competed in the North American Wife Carrying Championship, a 254-meter race during which competitors splash through water, jump over logs and trudge through mud — all while carrying their partner on their backs or shoulders.

The event began in Finland, with the first official event taking place in 1992. It has grown in popularity since then — the World Championship is held annually in the region of Sonkajärvi, and the North American Championship has taken place in Maine every year since 1999.

Traditionally, the Finnish event involved male competitors carrying a woman. At the competition in Maine, couples didn't have to be married to compete, nor did they have to be a man and a woman.

One participant — the carrier — was dressed as Mr Incredible, while his "wife" was dressed in pink. They and others were cheered on by crowds on both sides of the course at Sunday River ski resort.

Most of the participants use a technique in which the "wife" is carried like a backpack — upside down — to keep their arms free as they run. Wearing smiles and grimaces, competitors end up wet and muddy.

The champion leaves with the weight of the "wife" in beer and five times their weight in cash. To estimate the amount they win, the winning partner is put on one side of a see-saw-like scale that organizers balance out on the other side with cases of beer.

"We come each year for the fun," said Wade Porterfield of Cuba, New York, who competed with his wife, Sara Porterfield. "There is really a low chance of us winning. Pretty much everybody cheers everybody on and it's a blast."
