México en el corazón

Apapacho: El Abrazo del Alma en la Cultura Mexicana (con transcripción)

La famille Rat
- Quand on est un gros père Rat, il faut faire manger toute sa petite famille. On cherche dans les poubelles et dans les fossés, mais attention aux graines empoisonnées! Personne ne nous aime. Pourtant, nous, nous aimons tous les rats!
Un matin, j'ai découvert un grenier rempli de blé jusqu'au plafond. J'ai amené toute ma petite famille et, depuis, nous habitons dans notre nourriture! C'est pratique: quand on a faim, on grignote un bout de notre maison!

CHINESE STORY中文故事

乌鸦和狐狸

Being a picky eater can mean a number of different things. It may describe someone who doesn't like to try new foods, or someone who prefers plain meals. It can also refer to someone who eats quite a narrow range of foods.

It's quite common for children to be picky eaters. They may only like their pasta without sauce, or their bread cut in a certain shape.

Parents often feel they're to blame when their children are picky eaters. But according to a new study, picky eating is mostly caused by our genes.

Researchers in the UK looked at data from identical and non-identical twins who had been followed from birth since 2007.

Identical twins share 100% of their genes, while non-identical twins share half, on average. Studying these twins allowed the researchers to compare the eating habits of people who were genetically the same and those who weren't, but still grew up in the same home together.

More than 4,800 twins were included in the study. Their parents completed questionnaires about how picky their children were aged 16 months, then again at the ages of 3, 5, 7 and 13.

Not all parents completed the questionnaires as their children got older, but from the results, the researchers found that the eating habits of identical twins were much more similar than those of non-identical twins.

They also found that genetic variation explained 60% of the differences in food pickiness at 16 months, and 74% between the ages of 3 and 13. Meanwhile, shared environment only explained 15% to 26% of these differences, and the environmental effect was strongest when children were younger.

However, the researchers added that environmental effects are still important: parents can still influence their children's eating habits by eating together as a family, and by offering a wide variety of different foods, for example.

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.

你是遥遥的路
山野大雾里的灯
我是孩童啊走在你的眼眸
你是明月清风
我是你照拂的梦
见与不见都一生与你相拥
而我将爱你所爱的人间
愿你所愿的笑颜
你的手我蹒跚在牵
请带我去明天
如果说你曾苦过我的甜
我愿活成你的愿
愿不枉啊愿勇往啊
这盛世每一天
你是岁月长河
星火燃起的天空
我是仰望者就把你唱成歌
你是我之所来
也是我心之所归
世间所有路都将与你相逢
而我将爱你所爱的人间
愿你所愿的笑颜
你的手我蹒跚在牵
请带我去明天
如果说你曾苦过我的甜
我愿活成你的愿
愿不枉啊愿勇往啊
这盛世每一天
山河无恙烟火寻常
可是你如愿的眺望
孩子们啊安睡梦乡
像你深爱的那样
而我将梦你所梦的团圆
愿你所愿的永远
走你所走的长路
这样的爱你啊
我也将见你未见的世界
写你未写的诗篇
天边的月心中的念
你永在我身边
与你相约一生清澈
如你年轻的脸
