The Adventures of Odyssea: Ch 6.2 - Cycla

我在中国
去年，我在中国的一所学校工作，才过了一个月，就很想家了。因为想家，我很难过，总是哭。学生们常常问我：“老师，你怎么了？生病了吗”。我告诉他们“我想爸爸妈妈，也想男朋友了。”
几个月后，我认识了一个中国女孩儿。我们一起在学校门口租房子。她的朋友都对我很热情。我们常常一起逛街、看电影、散步、去很多地方旅游。和她们在一起，我能练习中文，学习做中国菜。
有一天，爸爸妈妈给我打电话。他们问我“你现在怎么样？还是很想家吗？还会每天哭吗？”“不，我喜欢这个城市；我喜欢我的朋友；我喜欢我的中国生活”。

My life in China

Generally interchangeable.
高兴 is more general and can be used to describe a wide range of happy or positive emotions, while 开心 is more specifically used to describe a feeling of joy or delight. In general, both words can be used interchangeably to describe happiness, but 开心 tends to be used in more informal or   contexts, while 高兴 is more commonly used in formal or polite settings.

In this episode we will talk about “冷”, you will learn different meanings of “冷”.
大家好，我是Yuli。这是我的第3期播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊“冷”的话题。
大家都知道冷是温度低的意思，它的反义词是热。如果今天只有8度（°C），我们可以说今天好冷啊，我要多穿几件衣服。夏天的时候，大家喜欢喝冷饮，例如冰可乐、冰啤酒、冰奶茶。还有夏天必不可少的冰淇淋。大家可能会说，冬天我们也喝冷饮吃冰淇淋啊。
这里要告诉大家一个文化小知识。在中国，大家在吃的方面比较讲究。小时候天气冷的时候，妈妈会告诉我们：“不可以吃冷的，对身体不好。”所以我们长大后也是这样的习惯。不过啊，现在年轻人越来越不在乎这些了， 他们想什么时候吃就什么时候吃。
冷还可以表示一个人的态度。例如，他对我很冷淡，一点儿也不热情。也可以说：她总是冷冰冰的。如果两个人吵架了，互相不说话，我们可以说：他们在冷战。如果你的朋友很激动，你可以告诉他：你冷静点儿。
冷还有其他有意思的用法。例如冷门，冷门专业是指那些很少人会选择学习的专业，它的反义词是热门专业。很多年前，计算机在中国是冷门专业，过去十几年变成了热门专业。
大家听过冷笑话吗？如果你的朋友告诉你一个笑话，你觉得不好笑，那你可以说：好冷啊。冷笑话就是bad joke，lame joke。
你听过什么中文的冷笑话吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
