听众朋友你们好，欢迎来到茶时话中文，我是Penny。这是一个纯中文话题节目，我来和你用中文聊聊生活中有意思的话题，同时学习一些汉语词汇。让我们一边喝茶一边聊起来吧。

不知道大家是否了解，在中国，这个冬天，热带的海南三亚遇到了一个强劲的竞争对手，那就是东北的哈尔滨。

哈尔滨宏大壮丽的冰雪节，吸引了全国各地的游客争相前往游玩。这其中，南方的朋友们被亲切地称呼为“南方小土豆”。他们穿羽绒服的可爱样子，在大家眼中就像是胖乎乎的“小土豆”，在哈尔滨受到了极其热情的欢迎。

哈尔滨人的热情，让游客们赞不绝口，火遍了中国的互联网。没有见过雪的“南方小土豆”们满足了心愿，哈尔滨人的盛情款待，也使得哈尔滨的城市形象大大提高了。

媒体说，这真是一场双向奔赴，互相成就呀。

好了，希望你喜欢今天的内容，这里是茶时话中文，我是Penny，我们下次见。

The Habits of Women Growing Into Strong, Confident English Communicators

Presentation Nightmare? Vocabulary BS Holding You Hostage? (Knock It Off!). Episode 405.

American interviewers want to hear precise, simple, and clear answers. They don’t want to hear rambling or layered communication. Australians, Canadians, and Germans appreciate this communication style too.

On the other hand, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese interviewers are more likely to appreciate sophisticated, nuanced, and layered communication styles. 

In this episode, we dive into communication styles by nationality, and you’ll learn how to prepare for an interview with a hiring manager who expects concise answers.

If you’re accustomed to talking at length and rambling, modifying your communication style will take some effort. But, it’s possible if you follow the seven tips outlined in the episode. 

In this episode, you’ll also hear an example of a concise answer to the interview question, what would you do if you knew your boss was wrong about something?
