Ep6 Ой перестань! (and why foreigners sometimes think I am rude)

中文：撒母耳说：“耶和华喜悦燔祭和平安祭，岂如喜悦人听从他的话呢？听命胜于献祭；顺从胜于公羊的脂油。”

Sāmǔ'ěr shuō: “Yēhéhuá xǐyuè fánjì hé píng'ān jì, qǐ rú xǐyuè rén tīngcóng tā de huà ne? Tīngmìng shèng yú xiànjì; shùncóng shèng yú gōngyáng de zhīyóu.”

사무엘이 말하되 “여호와께서 번제와 다른 제사를 그분의 말씀을 순종하는 것만큼 기뻐하시겠습니까? 순종이 제사보다 낫고, 듣는 것이 숫양의 기름보다 낫습니다.”


But Samuel replied: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.

Happiness and fulfilment rarely come from selfish pursuits, but almost always come from doing good deeds for others. By helping others we help ourselves.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊我的海南岛之旅。我现在在海南度假。大家知道海南在哪儿吗？海南是中国最南边的一个省，也是最有名的海岛。这是我第一次来海南，我和我的朋友计划在这里待一个星期。有一天我们在聊天，突然说到很想去海边。我们商量了一下儿，很快就决定一起来海南。
这次的行程很随意，我们打算一边工作一边玩。我们定了机票和民宿，看了下网上的旅游视频，大概了解了可以去哪里吃喝玩乐。昨天早上我们坐飞机到了机场，再坐一站高铁到海南的文昌市。民宿的老板来高铁站接我们，开车几十分钟就到我们住的地方了。我们订的民宿是在海边的一个小区里面，从阳台就可以看到大海和沙滩。在阳台喝着咖啡吹海风，非常舒服。
海南的椰子非常有名，我们到了马上买了两个椰子喝。这里的海鲜非常新鲜，我们去市场买了虾和螃蟹，然后拿去旁边的饭店加工。加工费是一斤13块钱，我们还点了炒青菜，还有免费的茶和菠萝。我们在酱油里面加一点柠檬汁，这样蘸着吃很好吃。
早上我很早就起来看日出，然后给学生上课。学生看到我身后的大海，他们都说很羡慕。昨天我们买了一只鸡，这也是文昌有名的美食。今天中午我们打算自己在家里做饭吃。待会民宿的老板会送我们去当地的菜市场，我们可以买些新鲜的蔬菜水果和海鲜。下午我休息一会，继续给学生上课，然后傍晚我们去海边散散步。晚上是我们头马俱乐部的演讲例会，今晚我是主持人。今天非常充实，明天我们工作不多，准备去椰林玩。这是中国最大的椰树林，那里的椰子鸡很有名，就是椰子味的鸡肉火锅。
这几天我会做一些视频放在我的Youtube，大家如果感兴趣可以在DailyChineseWithYuli看到。
你最喜欢的旅游地是哪里呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

我的海南岛之旅 My trip to Hainan Island （Intermediate and advanced level）

Company culture matters. A common reason people are motivated to switch jobs is a desire for a different company culture. When employees fit into the culture of a company, they not only feel more comfortable, like they are at their home away from home, but they are happier, more engaged, and more productive. 

In this episode, I walk you through questions to identify the type of culture you want in a company. You'll hear some of the most memorable and shocking answers I've heard from clients as we've talked about company culture. Then, I share steps that you can take to find companies with attractive cultures. Finally, I share what to do during a job interview to detect the culture of the company. You'll learn what to look for and questions to ask your interviewers. The episode concludes with definitions for nine idioms and phrases for English language learners.
