大家好，您正在收听中文播客《丹霞说》，我是丹霞。今天我给大家说说白雪的爸爸。

白雪的爸爸叫夏东海，妈妈常常叫他老夏。老夏做的菜很好吃，他有一家饭店。叫“老夏饭店”。饭店不大，可是每天都有很多客人。饭店里有饭，有面条儿，果汁，还有很多菜。

白雪小的时候，每天都跟爸爸妈妈一起去饭店，他们三个人也在饭店吃早饭、午饭和晚饭，每天都很晚关门回家。可以说，饭店是白雪的第二个家。

客人们都很喜欢白雪，喜欢和她说话。白雪有大大的眼睛和小小的嘴巴，很可爱。爸爸妈妈很忙的时候，白雪也能帮忙给客人拿筷子，水和菜单。

白雪六岁的时候开始上学，爸爸每天早上给女儿准备午饭，因为白雪觉得学校的午饭不好吃，她喜欢吃爸爸做的。下午四点多，白雪从学校回到饭店，爸爸妈妈问她今天在学校学习了什么。如果饭店没有人来吃饭，爸爸会看白雪写作业。

Bai Xue's father is named Xia Donghai, and his mother often calls him Lao Xia. Lao Xia's cooks very well. He has a restaurant. It's called "Laoxia Restaurant". The restaurant is not big, but there are many guests come every day. There are rice, noodles, fruit juice and many dishes in the restaurant.

When Bai Xue was young, she went to the restaurant with her parents every day. The three of them also had breakfast, lunch and dinner in the restaurant. They closed late every day and went home. It can be said that the restaurant is Bai Xue's second home.


The guests all like Bai Xue and like to talk to her. Bai Xue has big eyes and small mouth. She is adorable. When mom and dad are busy, Bai Xue can also help bring chopsticks, water and menus to guests.


Bai Xue started school when she was six. Her father prepares lunch for her daughter every morning. Because Bai Xue thinks the school lunch is not delicious, she likes to eat what her father makes.

At time past 4 pm., Bai Xue returned to the restaurant from school. Her parents asked her what she learned at school today. If no one comes to the restaurant for meal, dad will watch Bai Xue do her homework.

Episódio 4 - Profeta Gentileza: O homem que transformou tragédia em poesia e bondade (EM PORTUGUÊS)

①少女心，大概就是指每个女人还是少女的时候，看世界和看自己的心性：
简单、纯洁、孩子气、童话心、五颜六色的想象力以及对爱的美好憧憬。
如此，少女心实在是一种值得在心里永久保存的心境。
②很多时候，其实生活需要的，也就是一个一笑解千愁的微笑。
女人在任何时候都可以笑出来不是一件易事，需要一颗强大的内心。
而强大的内心，是女汉子最典型的特质。
想想看，你要不要做一个女汉子？
③穿合体的衣，说得体的话，内心千回百转的痛不掩你淡淡的微笑。
这很不容易，是烟火女英雄的最高境界。

你认为你是哪种女人呢，为什么？

Vol.17 Acured Tastes

Cerita Pendek Indonesia (A1-A2)

02 Kesukaan

A daily reading practice for you for today!

Today's grandparents are joining their grandchildren on social media, but the different generations' online habits couldn't be more different. In the UK the over-55s are joining Facebook in increasing numbers, meaning that they will soon be the site's second biggest user group, with 3.5 million users aged 55–64 and 2.9 million over-65s.

Sheila, aged 59, says, 'I joined to see what my grandchildren are doing, as my daughter posts videos and photos of them. It's a much better way to see what they're doing than waiting for letters and photos in the post. That's how we did it when I was a child, but I think I'm lucky I get to see so much more of their lives than my grandparents did.'

Ironically, Sheila's grandchildren are less likely to use Facebook themselves. Children under 17 in the UK are leaving the site – only 2.2 million users are under 17 – but they're not going far from their smartphones. Chloe, aged 15, even sleeps with her phone. 'It's my alarm clock so I have to,' she says. 'I look at it before I go to sleep and as soon as I wake up.'
