朋友们你们好！这一集我已经准备了一些自己非常喜欢的零食。它们是我学习汉语过程中的几条心得。我话就不多说了，我们边吃边学吧！


1）给自己定下小目标：
比如说：你每天都会学10分钟的汉语。听起来很短，才十分钟！不过如果你一年365天每天都全心全意地学10分钟，相信我，你会学到很多东西！

2）改变手机语言 ：
一开始，可能会有很多词语你看不懂，但是我们每天随时都要用手机，所以你慢慢会习惯的。

3）模仿本地人的发音和语气：
在看视频，看电视剧或者在听播客的时候，可以暂停一下，模仿他们说的每一句话。这是一个能帮助你练习自然口音的方法。我个人觉得特别有用！

4）自己录音：
学习时，可以录一下你说汉语的声音。这个方法有两个目的。首先，录完就可以自己听，然后跟母语者说的作比较。其次，学习了一段时间后，回头再听就可以感觉到你的进步，鼓励自己！

5）不要怕被笑话：
很多朋友担心自己说错，所以很少开口。你知道吗，你虽然会认识很多生词，但是如果你不说话，那些词你会很容易忘掉的。多多说话不但帮你说得更流利，而且也是学习和复习词语的一个好方式。

最后有一个小小的tip想跟你们分享一下。有不少朋友问了我，如果想轻松地跟中国朋友聊天那应该学习什么内容：我觉得只要是让你感兴趣的内容，你都可以去学。学自己喜欢的，这样会更有意思，学得更快！

希望我的那几个秘诀可以帮助大家提高自己的汉语水平，让你们学习的旅程更简单，更开心！
祝你们新的一年有新的开始，新的收获和成功！

2023年01月8号 - 我是怎么提高汉语水平的？(Intermediate) 

Benvenuti al nostro podcast  oggi dedicato a uno dei più grandi geni della storia umana: Leonardo da Vinci. Conoscete qualcuno che è al tempo stesso inventore, pittore, scultore, scrittore di aforismi, ingegnere e conoscitore dell’anatomia? La risposta è semplice: è Leonardo da Vinci.

In questa puntata esploreremo la straordinaria vita e le molteplici sfaccettature del genio rinascimentale, che ha lasciato un'impronta indelebile nella storia dell'arte, della scienza e della filosofia.

Nato il 15 aprile 1452, a Vinci, una piccola città vicino a Firenze, Leonardo  ha incarnato appieno lo spirito del Rinascimento italiano.

Presto ha iniziato a sviluppare le sue straordinarie competenze artistiche e scientifiche. Attraverso la sua capacità unica di unire l'arte e la scienza, ha anticipato molte delle scoperte scientifiche future, diventando un pioniere nell'osservazione della natura e dei suoi fenomeni.

Le sue opere più celebri, come "La Gioconda" e "L'Ultima Cena", hanno rivoluzionato l'arte del ritratto, mentre le sue invenzioni visionarie, dagli schizzi dei primi prototipi di elicotteri ai dispositivi idraulici, hanno dimostrato la sua mente inquieta e innovativa.

Ma Leonardo non era solo un artista e un inventore, era anche un filosofo che credeva nell'importanza dell'osservazione accurata e dell'esperienza personale per comprendere il mondo. La sua celebre frase "La conoscenza è figlia dell’esperienza" riflette il suo approccio alla vita e al sapere.

Anche dopo la sua morte il 2 maggio 1519, l'eredità di Leonardo da Vinci ha continuato a influenzare generazioni di artisti, scienziati e pensatori, rendendolo uno dei pilastri del Rinascimento e un'icona della mente umana creativa.

Buon ascolto! 

Italiano espresso

Leonardo Da Vinci: un genio del Rinascimento 

В трех верстах от деревни Обручановой строился громадный мост. Из деревни, стоявшей высоко на крутом берегу, был виден его решётчатый остов, и в туманную погоду и в тихие зимние дни, когда его тонкие железные стропила и все леса кругом были покрыты инеем, он представлял живописную и даже фантастическую картину. Через деревню проезжал иногда на беговых дрожках или в коляске инженер Кучеров, строитель моста, полный, плечистый, бородатый мужчина в мягкой, помятой фуражке; иногда в праздники приходили босяки, работавшие на мосту; они просили милостыню, смеялись над бабами и, случалось, уносили что-нибудь. Но это бывало редко; обыкновенно же дни проходили тихо и спокойно, как будто постройки не было вовсе, и только по вечерам, когда около моста светились костры, ветер слабо доносил песню босяков. И днем иногда слышался печальный металлический звук: дон… дон… дон…
