The Social Evolutionary

Is Santa a Woman???

这里是one minute Chinese, 中文一分钟，每天都不同！ 我们一起听一分钟，想一分钟，说一分钟，今天的话题是"如果一个东西坏了"？
如果你的衣服破(po4, worn-out)了，或者你的椅子坏(huai4, broken)了，或者是其他修理（xiu1li3, repair）起来比重新(chong2xin1, again)买一个还贵的东西坏了，你会怎么办？我觉得大部分人都把坏的东西丢掉(diu1diao4, discard)了，从现在越来越多的垃圾(la1ji1, rubbish)就可以看出来。
我记得我很小时候，家里的东西很少，只有床，椅子这样简单(jian3dan1, simple)的家具(jia1ju4, furniture)。家用电器就更少了，冰箱洗衣机都没有，也没有很多衣服，所以家里所有坏掉的东西，爸爸妈妈都要想办法把它修好，比如衣服破了，要把它修补(xiu1bu3, patch)起来，虽然穿起来不是很好看。那时候的生活很少浪费(lang4fei4, waste)，环境(huan1jing4, enviroment)很好。我觉得东西坏了，首先是想办法把它修好，而不像现在，丢了，买新的。我更喜欢过去的方式(fang1shi4, way)，喜欢那种珍惜(zhen1xi1,value)东西的感觉，不知道你怎么认为（ren4wei2, thin）呢？

Девушка, которая живёт на берегу озера. Часть 2. 

Indeed the Idols I have loved so long, have done my credit in this World much wrong; have drowned my Glory in a shallow Cup, and sold my Reputation for a Song.

Khayyam -طبعم به نماز و روزه چون مایل شد

The difference between 以前(yǐ qián) and 以后(yǐ hòu) is very clear from last episode, 以前 means before, so we often see it in a past tense sentence, and 以后 is the opposite, but have you ever wondered that does 以前 always refer to the past, and does 以后 always refer to the future?
