"Green Eggs and Ham" is a fun book by Dr. Seuss. It's about Sam-I-Am who tries to get someone to eat green eggs and ham. The story is easy to understand, with funny rhymes and colorful pictures. It teaches that trying new things can be a good adventure. Even if English isn't your first language, you'll enjoy this silly story!

大家好，我是Yuli。这是我的第6期播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊“焦虑”的话题。
现代生活大家的生活和工作压力都很大，很容易就感到焦虑。每个人的焦虑可能不太一样。学生会因为考试而焦虑，也会因为毕业找工作而焦虑。上班族会因为工作感到焦虑，可能是工作太多、太难，或者是竞争太激烈。父母会因为教育孩子而焦虑，担心孩子的健康、学习等等。  
除了以上这些焦虑，更多新的焦虑也开始出现在我们的生活。例如，“容貌焦虑”。容貌焦虑是指一个人经常觉得自己不够好看，特别是在网上我们经常看到各种美女帅哥。还有“身材焦虑”，一个人对自己的身材不满意，总是觉得可以再瘦一点儿，想要有一个明星那样的好身材。还有一个很常见的“财务焦虑”，也就是大家对金钱的担心。担心自己的收入不稳定，担心自己永远买不了房。
对于各种焦虑，你是怎么解决的呢？我以前也是个很容易焦虑的人，不过现在我越来越放松了。因为发生了两个很大的改变。
第一个改变是，我不去担心未来的事情了。焦虑的时候，我是在为还没有发生的事情担心，我的大脑会一直告诉自己一些很可怕的故事。但是，那都不是真的。现在，我努力去做我想做的事情，但是我不去担心结果了。
第二个改变是，停止和别人的比较。如果我们一直跟别人比较，那不管我们的生活多好，我们都会觉得不满足，因为永远有比我们好的人。所以，不要比较，知道自己想要什么，专注在那里就可以了。
你最大的焦虑是什么呢？你是怎么解决的？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

焦虑  Anxiety（Intermediate and advanced level）

What if ancient wisdom could make your language learning calmer, stronger, and more sustainable?

In Episode 95 of 111 Tips for Learning a Language, we explore how Stoic philosophy can guide you through grammar, speaking, writing, listening, and more. With Stoicism, you stop fearing mistakes, accept challenges as training, and focus only on what is in your control—the effort itself.

Which Stoic principle do you need most in your language learning?

Discipline with grammar rules?

Courage to speak despite mistakes?

Acceptance when listening feels difficult?

Clarity of thought through writing?

Episode 95 shows how Stoicism can enrich both language learning and life. Grammar becomes training in discipline, pronunciation becomes freedom from others’ judgments, reading becomes practice in accepting difficulty, speaking becomes an act of courage, writing becomes a path to clarity, and listening becomes an exercise in equanimity. Stoic philosophy reminds us that obstacles are not barriers but the very path itself. By learning with calm determination and focusing on what you can control, you gain not only fluency but also resilience, patience, and wisdom.
