子供の狐は遊びに行きました。　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　1
真綿のように やわらかい雪の上を
かけまわると、雪の粉が しぶきのように
飛び散って 小さい虹が すっと映るのでした。
すると突然、うしろで、
「どたどた、ざーっ」と ものすごい音がして、
パン粉のような粉雪が、ふわーっと子狐に
おっかぶさってきました。　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
子狐はびっくりして、雪の中に
ころがるようにして 十メートルも むこうへ
逃げました。何だろうと思って
ふり返って見ましたが 何もいませんでした。
それは もみの枝から雪がなだれ落ちたのでした。
まだ枝と枝の間から 白い絹糸のように
雪がこぼれていました。

This episode narrates the phrase: where there is smoke, there is fire.

American English Proverbs

3- Where there is smoke, there is fire

《爱》

我爱你
不光因为你的样子
还因为
和你在一起时
我的样子

我爱你
不光因为你为我而做的事
还因为
为了你
我能做成的事

我爱你
因为你能唤出 我最真的那个部分
我爱你
因为你穿越我心灵的旷野
如同阳光穿透水晶般泳衣
我的杀气、我的弱点
在你的目光里几乎不存在
而在我心底最美丽的地方
却被你的光芒照得通亮

别人都不曾费心走那么远
别人都觉得寻找太麻烦
所以没人发现过我的美丽
所以没人到过这里

歌词：
有多久没见你
以为你在哪里
原来就住在我心底
陪伴着我的呼吸
有多远的距离
以为闻不到你气息
谁知道你背影这么长
回头就看到你

"Is this how they say it in the United States?" It's a question I get a lot from students. 
First things first, I am not from the U.S. myself, as you may have noticed. 
Living in the U.S. for a period of time as an international student taught me many things about how English is spoken there. 

In this episode, I share with you the most important things that I learned about English while living in the U.S., especially dealing with fears of speaking English with Americans. 

I Just Wanna Be Fluent in English!
