[conversational podcast] The time I felt most alive 

你有没有觉得时间过得很快却想不起来自己做过什么有意义的事情。现在世界上发生的事情太多。人们常常忘记享受生活里小小的快乐。最近我看到一个很有用的词，小确信。它的意思是在日常生活中感受简单的快乐。 比如洗干净很舒服的床单 ，叠得整整齐齐的衣服，一个小小的、属于自己的空间。在这个很忙碌的世界里 ，这些小事能让我们停下来休息一会儿，也能给我们多一点快乐。你觉得呢？

My student wanted to know the meaning of ‘depleted’.

For example, when people talk about their energy levels being ‘depleted’, what do they mean?

Usually after a busy day at work, or for introverts, maybe after a big social gathering, 
and we’ve given all our energy to other people all day, we get home and our energy levels have been ‘drained’, ‘emptied’ or ‘depleted’. 

Another ( more literal ) example is when we’re talking about physical resources:

eg; ’My fridge contents have been depleted (usually by me)…’ 
       ‘The car’s fuel tank is depleted.’

Transcript

WAITER: Hello, I’ll be your waiter today. Can I start you off with something to drink?
RALPH: Yes. I’ll have iced tea, please.
ANNA: And I’ll have lemonade.
WAITER: OK. Are you ready to order, or do you need a few minutes?
RALPH: I think we’re ready. I’ll have the tomato soup to start, and the roast beef with mashed potatoes and peas.
WAITER: How do you want the beef — rare, medium, or well done?
RALPH: Well done, please.
ANNA: And I’ll just have the fish, with potatoes and a salad.
