小桃8岁了，她上小学一年级，她家有四口人，爸爸，妈妈，哥哥和她。她还有一只猫和一只狗。她的猫叫喵喵（miao1 miao），她的狗叫阿黄（a huang2）。猫是白色的，狗是黄色的。小桃有很多爱好，比如唱歌、画画、弹吉他。但是她最喜欢的是书法（shu1 fa3 colligraphy），她每天都要练习写毛笔字。她的字写得很好。﻿﻿小桃平时很忙，从周一到周五每天都要上课，下课后还要写作业，上兴趣班。周末不上课的时候，爸爸妈妈有时候会带她出去玩，他们经常去郊游，爸爸开车带她去爬山或者去湖边散步。﻿﻿小桃喜欢吃很多东西，比如饺子，面条，包子还有她的最爱糖葫芦。糖葫芦很甜很好吃。但是不能多吃，因为会牙疼。﻿﻿小桃最喜欢穿白色的衣服，尤其是夏天，她的裙子都是白色的。﻿﻿小桃有两个很好的朋友，一个叫欢欢，另一个叫芳芳。他们都是8岁，在同一个年级nian2 ji2 (grade)，但是不同班级(ban1 ji2) class. 他们经常在一起写作业，做游戏。﻿﻿现在很多小孩子都喜欢打游戏，但是小桃不喜欢，她喜欢看书，听音乐。她比较喜欢安静的活动。﻿﻿小桃平时8点半睡觉，但是有时候作业太多，写不完，她只能十点睡觉。妈妈觉得这样很不好，但是没办法，现在小孩子压力很大。﻿﻿小桃每天走路去上学，因为她家离学校不远。她不喜欢坐公交车，因为需要等车，又不舒服。More episodes coming up....

script: 
我从现在年轻人的表达当中我没有看到个性，我看到的是共性。我很少很少看到一个年轻人，给我有个性的表达，让我一惊。我*，这话，他这么说？这么看？我几乎看不到。语言都趋同，表达方式趋同，词语趋同。我不觉得今天的孩子比我们那会儿孩子更有个性，真的一点没有。为什么？还是因为你们每个人有个手机，有一个网络。网络和整个的媒体在教你们怎么说话。然后你们统一性越来越强。
表达   biǎo dá fāng shì；the way they speak
个性   gè xìng；personality 
译文translation:
I can't see the personality in the expressions of young people now, what I see is the commonality. I seldom see a young man who gives me a speech of personality that surprises me. Which can makes me think ‘Why did he say that? Why did he have this idea?’ I can barely see it. Languages are the same, the way they speak are the same, and words are the same. I don't think the young people now have stronger personality than our times, really not at all. Why? That’s because each of you has a cell phone, the Internet and the entire media is teaching you how to speak. Then you guys become more and more unifie.

04.陈丹青：手机让每个人变得一样 Chen Danqing:Mobile phones make everyone the same

Te escribo desde Els Bacus, la casa dónde desde hace 6 días estamos realizando y disfrutando de la Inmersión Lingüística Otoño-2021. El tiempo vuela y parece que fuera ayer mismo cuando a uno por uno iba recibiendo a mis estudiantes detrás de sus sonrisas. La casa, el lugar, las vistas, las rutas, las actividades, la comida, todo ha sido notable; pero por encima de todo, quedan las personas y he sido bendecido por hospedar a este grupo heterogéneo pero enormemente sensible.

In our first ever episode we explore the question of how language influences thought. But if it does... Does it mean that some languages are better for certain things than others?
