想念的地图

假如想念是一张地图，打开思念的地图，你也许会发现，不管这张地图有多么复杂，想念的起点也是终点。小孩子想念的是亲人，长大了，想念的是恋人，后来，想念的对象又变成了亲人。人生最初的想念和最后的想念几乎是一样的，无论我们走多远，也是殊途同归。

想念一个人到底是什么滋味？如果可以不要想念一个人，是不是会比较自由？想念一旦展开，我们都是不自由的。当我老了，当一切都结束，远方不再有想念，那时候我会感受到能够想念一个人，也被人想念，这张地图是漂亮的。

学习重点：殊途同归

边听边说 More than Chinese Listening

¿No te ha pasado que estás hablando español, leyendo y te preguntas el origen de la palabra que estás usando o que leíste? A mí sí me ha pasado.

Tacos are the world's most popular street food, according to a new study of TikTok posts.

Originally from Mexico, these simple, messy, hand-sized snacks are enjoyed around the world.

A money transfer company called Remitly wanted to find out about the world's best-loved street foods.

It made a list of more than 300 such foods from 136 countries, and looked at TikTok to see how many times each one had been mentioned on the app.

Tacos — tortillas filled with meat, vegetables or almost anything else you can think of — were mentioned more than 1.8 million times.

Next came a South Asian favorite, pani puri. Eaten in India at any time of day, these are crispy dough balls often filled with potato, chickpeas and spices.

Pani puri was mentioned more than 734,000 times, a little more than the third-placed food: hot dogs, which were mentioned almost 654,000 times.

Many of the most popular street foods on the list are things you can easily eat while walking — although you might get some sauce on your shirt!

But Vietnamese pho — a noodle soup — also did well, and so did Peru's ceviche, a fish dish made with lime juice and onion.

Some sweet snacks were also in the website's top 10, including waffles, croissants and crepes.

Many of these street foods can now be found around the world, although some are easier to find than others.

But travel website TimeOut says eating authentic local street food is one of the best parts of traveling!
