大家好，您正在收听中文播客《丹霞说》，我是丹霞。今天我要给你们介绍一下儿我的朋友。

我有一个好朋友，她叫夏白雪。
夏是夏天的夏，不是下雪的下。
为什么她的名字是夏白雪？因为她爸爸姓夏，但是她在冬天出生，出生那天下雪了，所以她叫夏白雪。

白雪家有四口人，她父母、她弟弟和她。她爸爸有自己的商店，她妈妈在学校工作，是英语老师，而他弟弟还是中学生，所以和爸妈住在一起。
白雪在公司上班，有时候她工作非常忙。但周末的时候，她会回家看看家人。

这些词语你听明白了吗？

好，现在我们再听一次！

I have a good friend whose name is Xia Baixue.

Xia is xia in summer"xia tian", not the xia in snow"xia xue".

Why is her name Xia Baixue? Because her father's surname is Xia, but she was born in winter. It snowed on the day of her birth, so her name is Xia Baixue.

There are four people in Bai Xue's family, including her parents, her younger brother and her. Her father has his own shop, her mother works in school and is an English teacher, while his brother is still a middle school student, so he lives with parents.

Bai Xue works in a company. Sometimes she is very busy. But on weekends, she will go home to visit her family.

Do you understand these words?

今日は日本の方言について話をしてみます。日本は山が多いので、特に方言が多いのではないかと思いますが、どう思いますか？
Today I talked about dialects in Japan. We have so many different dialects in Japan, but I think it's because we have so many mountains (73% of the land) in Japan.

纸上谈兵的主人公指的是赵国将军赵括。战国时赵国名将赵奢之子赵括，年轻时学兵法，谈起兵事来父亲也难不倒他。后来他接替廉颇为赵将，在长平之战中，只知道根据兵书办，不知道变通，贸然进攻，结果被秦军打败。比喻空谈理论，不能解决实际问题。也比喻空谈不能成为现实。
