It is recommended that you study in the following ways:
Step 1: Gist listening. Listen to get the main idea. (more times if necessary)
Step 2: Read the text to find out words you didn't get, then look up the dictionary. 
Step 3: Listen and imitate as much as you can without looking at the text.
Step 4: Write down what you hear if you want to practise writing.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家分享一些【社交媒体】相关的词。
国外社交媒体平台有:Facebook（脸书）、Instagram（ins）、Twitter（推特）等等。中国用得最多的社交软件有微信（wechat）、微博（MicroBlog）、抖音（Tik-tok）等等。
我们先来看看跟微信有关的词。在中国，几乎每个人都有微信。微信可以用来发信息，发语音（信息），打语音电话，打视频电话。除了一对一聊天，还有很多微信群，家人群，朋友群，工作群。我们还可以用微信来付款，转账，发红包。付款的时候可以你扫商家的二维码，或者商家扫你的付款码。所以买东西的时候经常会听到这样的话：“我扫你，还是你扫我？”转账的金额可以比较高，每天最高可转账20万元。发红包的金额最高是一个200块，一般用在朋友和家人间。例如我朋友生日的时候，我会给他发一个188.88的红包，因为8在中国是一个幸运的数字。
认识一个新朋友的时候，我们一般会加微信。扫对方的二维码就可以添加好友，对方通过后你们就是微信好友了。你可以根据关系把他分组，例如家人，朋友，同事。如果你不想和一个人再聊天了，可以删他(的)微信，甚至是拉黑他。
微信还有一个功能叫朋友圈。我们可以在朋友圈发文字，图片，视频。你的微信好友可以给你点赞，评论。如果你发的朋友圈只想给一部分人看，那就设置分组可见，只有你选择的组可以看到你发的朋友圈。
微信的功能还有很多，公众号可以看文章，视频号可以看视频，小程序可以快速地使用很多常见的手机软件。点外卖，购物，医院挂号等等都可以通过微信。可以说，我们的生活根本离不开微信了。
你用过微信吗？你最喜欢什么功能？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Disc Golf

Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English. I'm your host, Carl. Today I want to talk to you about a new sport. This sport is growing, and it is very similar to golf. However, this is disc golf. So disc golf is like golf, except for you use a disc and instead of holes there are baskets and you will see the baskets with these chains hanging down and with a kind of a bucket thing.

And you throw the disc or the Frisbee into the chains. And then that counts  like putting the ball into a hole in golf. So the sport is great because there are a lot of free courses that you can play disc golf or Frisbee golf in. And just like golf, there are usually nine or 18 holes or baskets.

And the goal is to throw the disc, the Frisbee into the basket with as few throws as possible. So, for example, like in golf, you might have a course that is like par, par three. It takes three shots to get it into the hole So the same thing with disc golf, you have a par three course or par four.

So you're trying to get the disc into the basket in three throws or less. Now, some of the challenges with the disc golf courses are trees or obstacles. So sometimes the course will have a tree in the way and you'll have to throw the disc in a way that the disc curves around and goes around the tree so that you can get a clear look at the basket. Another interesting thing is that the discs are made of plastic according to Wikipedia.

Here it says that the discs are made of polypropylene, which is a thermoplastic polymer resin. So it's a very dense plastic And they're smaller in size than a Frisbee that you think of. Like from when I was a kid, I remember the Frisbees were quite large. But these Frisbees are small and there are different Frisbees for different throws.

IELTS Test Day Tips: Boosting Performance Under Pressure

Сегодня проверим себя по известному всем роману “Идиот” Федора Михайловича Достоевского. Текст достаточно легкий, но буду диктовать и знаки препинания. Нам понадобятся: точка (.), запятая (,), вопросительный (?) и восклицательный (!) знаки и многоточие (...)

Я прочитаю отрывок дважды. В первый раз медленно, по несколько слов, но обязательно ставьте эпизод на паузу, чтобы всё успеть. Второй раз читаю быстрее, чтобы вы проверили, всё ли правильно записали. 

Отправьте мне сообщение со словами “восьмой диктант готов” и я пришлю вам текст для проверки. Ну и не забывайте ставить лайки и оставлять комментарии, мне будет очень приятно.

Пишите грамотно, говорите свободно! Хорошего дня, друзья!
