[Script]
내일은 '발렌타인데이'예요. 
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day.
그래서 오늘 마트에 갔어요.
So I went to the mart.
마트에서 초콜릿 두 개하고 케이크 한 개를 샀어요.
At the mart, I bought two chocolates and a cake.
모두 25000원이었어요. 
In total, it was 25000won.
저는 가게에서 꽃도 샀어요. 
I also bought flowers at a store.
꽃이 조금 비싸지만 아주 예뻐요.
Flowers are a bit expensive but very pretty.
집에서 한국어로 편지를 썼어요. 
At home I wrote a letter in Korean.
내일 아침에  편지랑 케이크랑 초콜릿이랑 꽃을 
남자친구한테 줄 거예요.
Tomorrow morning, I will give a letter and a cake and chocolate and flowers to my boyfriend.

발렌타인 데이(Valentine's Day)

大家晚上好啊，我是丹霞。您现在收听的是中文台词频道，今天的台词出自电影《后来的我们》，由周冬雨和井柏然主演。

"能在北京生活对我来说一直是一个梦，在北京 好像每天都能遇到新鲜事儿，遇上有趣的人，所有的梦想都能实现。虽然挣的钱不多，空气和水也没有家乡的好，但是我得试过了 才甘愿回到小城市，去过结婚生子、柴米油盐、平淡的下半生，我一定得坚持下去，北京，谁怕谁!" 
   ——电影《后来的我们》/<Us and Them>

    
新鲜Xīnxiān  fresh, new
挣钱zhèng qián  earn money, make money
甘愿gān yuàn  willingly, readily
柴米油盐chái mǐ yóu yán fuel, rice, cooking oil and salt -- daily necessities, daily common life
平淡píng dàn flat, ordinary, insipid

Chinese New Year

While technology has made language learning far more accessible, many students still struggle to pass the IELTS or clear job interviews. Convenience cannot replace cognitive effort—language proficiency grows only when you actively challenge your mind.

Cognitive capacity and language ability are deeply intertwined. Relying on shortcuts limits growth, whereas consistent mental engagement builds genuine fluency. Just as an elite athlete trains at 4:00 AM every day to build stamina and endurance, strong language skills require daily mental conditioning over time.
