DAILY Business English VOCABULARY builder

This was a really tiring podcast to make

前两天，和学生上课时，讨论起来如果城市是一个人，那么你对这个人的印象是什么样的。聊得非常开心，希望大家和我们一起讨论。
The other day, when I had class with my student, we talked about if we consider a city as a person, what would be the image of your city? We had a very interesting conversation. And I sincerely invite you to join our discussion. 

她说广州像一个小商贩，每天起早贪黑忙忙碌碌。但是他的生意总是做不了很大，一直是马马虎虎的样子。
She said Guangzhou is like a small trader. Working from dawn to dusk, hustling and bustling. But his business is always a small business, hard to expand. 
 
而一海之隔的香港却是个非常成功的生意人，西装革履，派头十足。值得广州好好学习。
Otherwise, Hong Kong which is in the Ocean apart is a very successful businessman. Wear fancy suits, and be very flamboyant. It’s a very good example for Guangzhou.

おはようございます。日本語だんだんポットキャストのゆかりです。

今週(こんしゅう)は花の話(はなし)をします。🌸

花‥さくらや、マーガレット、チューリップなどの
「はな」のことです。

顔の真ん中(まんなか)にある、
「鼻(はな)」ではありませんよ。👃

では、花の話にもどります。

日本の花といえば、そう、桜(さくら)ですね。
私も桜の花がだいすきです。

本当に、うつくしいと思います。

でも、まって下さい！
桜もきれいなんですが、
日本では梅(うめ)の花も
楽しむことができます。

台湾(たいわん)や、韓国(かんこく)、
中国(ちゅうごく)でも、梅がきれいですね。

毎年(まいとし)、
3月の中旬(ちゅうじゅん)から、
4月頃(しがつごろ)に見ることができます。

今年(ことし)の冬(ふゆ)はあたたかいため、
いつもより少し、早いみたいです。

いま、3月になったばかりですが、
一番(いちばん)きれいに見ることができます。

これを「見頃(みごろ)」といいます。

「いま、京都(きょうと)では、

梅が見頃です。」

といいます。

では、桜の見頃はいつでしょうか？

つづきます。

今日も最後まで聞いてくれて、だんだんです。

また、明日！

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【追星】的话题。
这个星期网上的热门话题是王心凌。她是一名歌手。十多年前她非常火，因为她的长相甜美，而且歌曲和舞蹈很少女，收获了不少粉丝，特别是男粉丝。上个星期五她参加的一档综艺节目《乘风破浪的姐姐》开播了。今年39岁的她穿着当年的少女裙子，唱着那首经典的歌曲《爱你》。熟悉的歌词和舞蹈一下子勾起了很多人的青春回忆。于是，她又火了，上了热搜。
网上出现很多这样的视频：她的男粉丝听到她的歌声都忍不住跟着一起唱起来，跳起来。更夸张的是，很多人为了支持他们的偶像王心凌，开始买芒果超媒的股票。芒果超媒就是制作这个节目的公司。还有公司发布公告,要求公司员工为王心凌投票，因为老板是王心凌的忠实粉丝。在你们的国家有这样的疯狂追星的现象吗？留言告诉我吧。
最后我们来听一听这首非常火的歌曲《爱你》
如果你突然打了个喷嚏 那一定就是我在想你
如果半夜被手机吵醒 啊 那是因为我关心
常常想你说的话 是不是别有用心
明明很想相信 却又忍不住怀疑 在你的心里 
我是否就是唯一 爱就是有我常烦着你
ho baby 情话多说一点 想我就多看一眼
表现多一点点 让我能真的看见oh bye 少说一点
想陪你不只一天 多一点让我心甘情愿 爱你
