The Adventures of Captain Underpants by Dav Pilkey Chapter 15 Dr. Diaper George and Harold hid behind the van until the coast was clear. Then they sneaked up to the whole in the door and peeked inside. Captain Underpants was all tied up, the two robots were standing guard, and a strange little man wearing a diaper was laughing manically. "I am the evil Dr. Diaper," the strange little man told Captain Underpants." And you will be the first to witness the take over of the world!" Dr. Diaper placed the stolen crystal into a large machine called the Laser Matic 2000. The machine started to light up and make loud noises. Heavy gears began shifting and spinning, and the laser beam from the crystal shot straight up through the hole in the roof. "In exactly 20 minutes, this laser beam will blow up the moon and send huge chunks of it crashing down upon every major city in the world!" laughed Dr. Diaper. "Then, I will rise from the rubble and take over the planet!" "Only one thing can help us now," said George. "What?" asked Harold. "Rubber doggy doo-doo," said George. Harold took the fake doggy doo-doo and a slingshot from George's backpack and handed them to him. "Be careful," said Harold. "The fate of the entire planet is in your hands!" With careful and precise aim, George shot the rubber doggie doo-doo through the air and across the room. It landed with a plop! -- right at the feet of Dr. Diaper. "Yessss!" whispered George and Harold. Dr. Diaper looked down at the doo-doo between his feet and turned bright red. "Oh, dear me!" he cried. "I'm dreadfully embarrassed! Please excuse me." He began to waddle toward the restroom. "This has never happened to me before, I assure you," he said. "I - I guess with all the excitement, I just ... I just ... Oh, dear! Oh, dear!"

In this episode we will talk about 【What sports do Chinese people like?】, you will learn how to say 【popularize,Badminton,Camping】 ect. -------------------------------------------------- It is recommended that you study in the following ways: Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary) Step 2: Check the script and learn new words. Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can then retell the story. Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing. -------------------------------------------------- 大家好,我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。 今天想和大家聊一聊【运动】的话题。 在中国,最受欢迎的运动项目包括篮球、乒乓球、羽毛球、足球和跑步等。篮球在中国尤其是年轻人中非常流行,姚明的影响力使得这项运动在中国得到了极大的推广。乒乓球是中国非常突出的运动项目,早在20世纪50年代初,中国领导人毛主席就宣布乒乓球为一项全民运动。这项运动在中国的普及程度非常高,到处可以看到乒乓球桌。羽毛球是中国的另一项全民运动,与乒乓球类似,羽毛球可以随时随地进行,只需要一副球拍。足球在中国也有很大的影响力,但是因为踢足球需要更大的场地,不是每个学校都有足球场。跑步在中国变得越来越流行,越来越多的人选择在城市的街道和乡村小路上跑步。 这几年,户外运动也流行了起来。例如徒步、登山、露营、滑雪、漂流和骑行等,受到了越来越多的人喜爱。这些活动不仅能让人们亲近大自然,还能提供一种健康的生活方式。周末参加一个一天的徒步团,在山里面徒步,呼吸新鲜空气,然后在村里面吃一顿地道的农家菜,对住在城市里的年轻人来说是很新鲜的体验。在徒步的过程中也可以跟其他人聊聊天,认识新朋友,有的年轻人甚至在徒步中遇到自己的另一半。 除此之外,去健身房锻炼身体,去瑜伽馆做瑜伽也是很多年轻人的选择。你可以选择月卡、半年卡和年卡,一般年卡是最划算的。不过经常有年轻人买了年卡以后很少去,坚持运动也是一件不容易的事啊。 没有时间去健身房或者不喜欢社交的人,也可以选择在家里做运动。一边看视频,一边跟着做动作。因此很多运动博主也收获了不少粉丝,一个视频甚至有几千万的播放量。还有一些博主直播带着大家一起运动,运动变成一种新时尚。 你最喜欢什么运动?留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。 -------------------------------------------------- 项目/xiàng mù/Programs 乒乓球/pīng pāng qiú/Table Tennis 羽毛球/yǔ máo qiú/Badminton 尤其/yóu qí/Especially 推广/tuī guǎng/Promotion,spread 突出/tū chū/Outstanding 领导人/lǐng dǎo rén/Leaders 毛主席/máo zhǔ xí/Chairman Mao 宣布/xuān bù/Announce 普及/pǔ jí/popularize 与···类似/yǔ ··· lèi sì/Similar to 徒步/tú bù/Hiking 露营/lù yíng/Camping 漂流/piāo liú/Rafting 农家菜/nóng jiā cài/Farm dishes 瑜伽/yú jiā/Yoga 划算/huá suàn/a good bargin 社交/shè jiāo/Socializing 博主/bó zhǔ/Blogger/youtuber 播放量/bō fàng liàng/amount of play 时尚/shí shàng/Fashion
