안녕하세요. 
오늘은 일요일이에요. 
일요일마다 저는 대청소를 해요. 아니 정확하게 말하면 대청소를 하려고 노력해요. 

오늘은 드디어 성공했어요. 사실 지난주는 못했거든요. 
책상 정리도 하고 어지럽게 놓여 있던 물건들을 정리했어요. 

청소기도 돌리고 걸레질도 깨끗하게 했어요. 
이렇게 청소를 하고 나서 깨끗해진 집을 보면 마음이 좀 개운하고 시원해져요.
깔끔한 공간에서 깨끗하게 살아야 건강하고 좋은 생각들을 할 수 있는 것 같아요. 

아~  청소를 하면 참 좋은 걸 알지만 사실 귀찮아서 그동안은 청소를 자주 못했어요. 
청소를 하는 게 왜 이렇게 귀찮을까요? 저는 좀 게으른 사람이라서 부지런하게 꼼꼼하게 청소를 잘 하는 사람들이 대단하게 느껴져요. 올해 2024년에는 좀 깔끔하게 집을 정리하는 사람이 되어 보려고 합니다. 

여러분은 특별히 좋아하는 혹은 싫어하는 집안일이 있어요?
저는 빨래를 하는 걸 좀 좋아해요. 특히 제가 좋아하는 향기의 세제와 섬유유연제를 골라서 빨래를 하는 걸 좋아해요. 건조기까지 돌린 빨래의 뽀송한 느낌이 너무 좋아요. 

싫어하는 집안일은 설거지예요. 저는 집에 식기세척기가 없어서 매일 열심히 손으로 설거지를 하고 있어요. 나중에 살 수 있으면 꼭 식기세척기를 사고 싶어요. 그리고 제가 아주 오랫동안 사고 싶어한 가전제품 중 하나는 로봇 청소기예요. 로봇 청소기를 정말 가지고 싶어요. 그런데 좀 비싸서 아직 구매하지 못했어요. 1년 뒤 2025년의 지금이 되면 로봇 청소기를 가지고 있었으면 좋겠어요. 

일요일에 대청소를 하면 깨끗하게 월요일을 시작할 수 있어서 저는 일요일에 온 집안을 깔끔하게 청소하려고 합니다. 

내일은 월요일이에요. 
주말 동안 푹 쉬었으니까 내일부터 다시 열심히 새로운 한 주를 시작할 거예요.

한국어를 공부하는 여러분도 일요일을 잘 마무리하시고
즐거운 월요일을 보내기를 바랍니다.

감사합니다.

今期係純八卦，就係講下我地前面提到咗幾次嘅一個朋友——綠色植物，我地就叫佢阿木。但係一個人嘅故事點會夠呢，咁啱我地又有幾個我地都識但係成日都唔係好睇得明佢地有啲行為嘅朋友s，所以準備咗幾單出黎一齊食下花生。

EP5.食花生：奇葩朋友

Poisson Rouge.
Poisson Rouge en a assez de tourner en rond dans son bocal.
- Peux-tu m'aider à sortir ? demande-t-il à Hoquet le perroquet.
- Où veux-tu aller ? Tu ne sais pas marcher, pas voler, tu vas mourir si je te sors de l’eau.
- Je veux nager dans la baignoire, s’il te plaît, aide-moi !
Hoquet attrape Poisson Rouge par une nageoire et le dépose dans la baignoire. Quelle joie ! Il rencontre un étrange poisson.
- Bonjour, dit-il, comment allez-vous ?
- C'est une éponge, dit le perroquet en riant, elle sert à laver les enfants.
- Vite, replace-moi dans mon bocal, on pourrait me prendre pour une éponge, dit Poisson Rouge. Demain, je voudrais nager dans la mer, tu pourras m’y emmener ?
- Non, dit Hoquet, tu es mon seul ami, tu pourrais être mangé par un requin et j’aurais trop de chagrin.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天要介绍的是美国华裔女演员刘玉玲。她在中国也很有名，特别是2019年她出演的《致命女人》吸引了无数中国粉丝。除了最为人所知的演员身份，她其实还是一名画家、慈善家。我们来听听她的艺术故事吧。
她是好莱坞著名的华裔女星，是大热剧集中的致命女人，但很多人不知道刘玉玲其实还是一个现实中肆意洒脱的艺术家。一副作品卖出17万美元，惊艳众人后才被人得知出自她之手。在父母只关注她的好成绩，期待她成为医生或律师的传统教育下成长，她独自下手改写人生。勇闯好莱坞演戏的同时，挤出时间去专门进修艺术，最终成为家喻户晓、留名好莱坞星光大道的亚裔明星和低调独特的灵魂画手。这一切都是源于她内心深处的自我认同和对人生目标的坚定感。她的作品有的张扬大胆，有的细腻柔软，融合着她自由、真实、坦荡的性格和历经世事的人文关怀。她以形态各异的木头雕塑强调个体的自由，72张看似乱涂的水墨画，展现创作的玩心。以色彩迷人、造型大胆的抽象画，挑战禁忌话题，映射着她在一个避讳谈论“性”的家庭中成长的反思。她曾建议每个人都该努力挣钱，为自己建一个“去你的”基金。也曾说“艺术是教育的一部分，也为人类创造更美好的未来。”她所展现的是一位女性抛开外表仍具有的更迷人的美。我想一直活在一个不对自己设限的世界里。无所畏惧，敢于冒险。
希望她的故事能够给你带来力量。我们下期见。

One of the weirdest things about British culture is the way we enjoy our visits to cemeteries. Cemeteries, otherwise known as graveyards, are places where you can find British people relaxing with a cup of tea, perhaps, uh, a bottle of Coca-Cola or with a sandwich. It's a little bit strange. Now, I've lived in many countries across the world, and I have to say that only in Britain are we completely detached from the feelings associated with tombs, graves and dead people.
 If you go to a restaurant in the UK, particularly a cafe, you may even find that it was once a church.  There are churches around which close, and then they're sold to restaurant owners, or they become pubs, and you find yourself walking across these tombs without even thinking about it. To avoid any difficulties or problems with this. Some restaurants and pubs will lay carpets on the floor so that you won't actually see the names of those who've died.  Not to worry though, because these people who've died, usually they've died hundreds of years ago. It's not like they died last week. I'm not sure if that makes it worse or makes it better.
