日本のピザには「ある食べ物」がのっています。
食べてみたいですか？それとも…？！

歌詞↓
(verse 1)  
夜の街を歩いてる  
ピザ屋の灯りが見えてくる  
メニューを見て悩んでる  
でも決めたよ、コーンのピザ  

(Chorus 1)  
日本のピザにはコーンがのってる  
Corn topped pizza in Japan 
甘いコーンが口の中で踊る  
Sweet corn dancing in my mouth  
チーズとトマトが絡み合って  
Cheese and tomatoes blending together
おいしさ広がるよ、ハッピーな瞬間  
Tasting so good, a happy moment  

 (verse 2)   
サラダと一緒に頼んで  
サイドメニューも楽しみたい  
だけどやっぱりピザが一番  
コーンがのってると心が弾む  

(Chorus 2)  
日本のピザにはコーンがのってる  
Corn topped pizza in Japan 
ほんのり甘く、心が温かくなる  
Slightly sweet, warming my heart
あたたかな味が広がって  
The warm flavor spreads in my soul
笑顔になるよ、シンプルな喜び  
Smiling, simple joy in every bite  

(Bridge)   
Cheese stretching, corn shining bright
With every bite, happiness grows inside
Found anywhere, you can get it right
日本のピザ、愛してるよ  
Love for Japan’s pizza, I’m all in

(Chorus 3)  
日本のピザにはコーンがのってる  
Corn topped pizza in Japan 
ちょっと変わった、それが魅力  
Something different, that's the charm  
誰もが好きなこの味に  
Everyone loves the taste so fine 
自然と手が伸びる、止まらないよ  
My hand reaches out, I can't stop now  

(Chorus 4)  
日本のピザにはコーンがのってる  
Corn topped pizza in Japan 
甘さと塩気が絶妙に交わる  
Sweetness and saltiness blend so well  
ひと口食べるたび、心も満たされ  
With each bite, my heart’s complete 
みんなでシェアして幸せな気分  
Sharing with friends, it’s a happy treat 

(Outro)  
Corn topped pizza in Japan
It’s the best, come and try it too!

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。
今天想和大家聊一聊【考研】的话题。2023年全国硕士研究生招生考试将于2022年12月24日至26日举行。这几年考研人数越来越多，2022年的考研人数达到457万，几乎是2018年的两倍。那么为什么这么多人想考研呢？我们来听听以下的报道。
很多人热衷考研，一个很重要的原因就是他们担心本科学历不足以支撑他们找到满意的工作。而通过考研，可以提升学历，未来可以实现更好的就业。我们继续往下看。顾宇刚刚入职苏州一家科技公司，企业开出了年薪18万的待遇。他告诉记者，这样的待遇都得益于三年前做出的考研决定。
顾宇：“现在社会竞争压力这么大，我也是想提升下自己的学历，然后这样子在步入社会以后也更有竞争力。”
顾宇告诉记者，与其说考研是为了逃避就业，不如说是为了更主动地提升就业质量。一项对12.6万名大学生的调查显示，就业前景好和职业发展需要是本科毕业生选择考研的最主要动机。
《中国大学生就业报告》副主编：“主要的大部分的这个原因呢，还是为了提升自己将来在职场上的一个竞争力、主观上对于自己就业现状的满意程度。”
2020届毕业生薪酬数据显示，硕士研究生及以上学历的起薪为7337元，本科生为5102元，大专生为4562元。但业内人士提示，并不是所有的行业研究生学历都有明显优势。专家表示，尽管目前研究生学历在就业市场上是一块不错的敲门砖，但是本科毕业生还是要根据自身情况以及所学专业特点来做决定。
你会选择考研吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
