KEP episode 26: IELTS Q and A Live with Iranian Students!

Clear usage try and + (verb)
Andrew says:
'we try and meet up when we can'
'we try and make excuses to meet up'
Putting try and before a verb means you want to do something, and you make an effort to do it - Andrew and his family make an effort to meet up.
 You may also hear try to + (verb), which means exactly the same thing.

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: Read the text to find out words you didn't get, then look up the dictionary. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can without looking at the text.
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。
今天是9月29号，农历八月十五号中秋节。今年中秋节和国庆节离得很近，所以今天开始全国放8天假。因为出行的人很多，塞车很严重。即使要花十几个小时甚至更长的时间才能回到家，还是有千千万万的人选择回家过中秋节。为什么中秋节对中国人来说这么重要呢？
中秋节对于中国人来说，最大的意义就是团圆。从唐朝开始，人们就把天上的月圆和人间的团圆联系在一起了。离家在外的人举头望月，思念的是故乡和亲友。中国人重视亲情，阖家团圆便是最好的期盼。每逢中秋来临，中国960万平方公里的大地上，便有无数人奔走起来。他们有个共同的目标，回家。
回家路千千万万，有的回家路横穿中国，从上海到喀什，跨越三个时区，行程一万里。有的回家路沿着城市和乡村，用草原河流呼唤漂泊的游子。有的回家路随大海延伸，中国3.2万公里的海岸线，是对出海人平安回家的等待。有的回家路则是从四面八方，天南海北聚在一起，把他乡变成故乡。
虽然今天人们可以隔着屏幕相连，但与家人的相见，永远是心灵深处的渴望。同一屋檐下共赏明月，幸福平淡也绵长。
月亮，为什么大家都喜欢你？这个中秋，你回家了吗？中秋节快乐。让我们回家追月吧。
