听众朋友你们好，欢迎来到茶时话中文，我是Penny。这是一个纯中文话题节目，我来和你用中文聊聊生活中有意思的话题，同时学习一些汉语词汇。让我们一边喝茶一边聊起来吧。

今天的话题是，你喜欢住在大城市，还是小城市呢？在我看来，它们。大城市有很多精彩的活动，也非常的包容。包容的意思就是，大城市能理解各种各样的人。相对来说，小城市就没有那么包容。因为小城市甚至乡村居住的人们见识比较少。而大城市的人们见多识广，如果你有比较小众的爱好，大城市的人见怪不怪，小城市的人可能会对你另眼相看呢。

大城市的压力也比较大。相比小城市，人们更难在大城市生存，因为生活水平高，消费也贵。在中国的大城市比如北京、上海和广州，消费可以非常的高，而收入却有高有低。为了生存，人们必须有很强的赚钱能力。小城市就比较安逸了，消费不高，生活节奏不快，人也随和。

你喜欢大城市还是小城市呢？欢迎留言，感谢收听，希望你喜欢，我们下次见。

Culture To Grow

Episode 5: Let's Travel to Nepal!

Hi everyone, and welcome back to Everyday English. Today’s episode is about personality. Are you more of an extrovert or an introvert? Or maybe you’re somewhere in between? Let’s find out!
Extroverts love socializing, meeting new people, and feel energized in busy environments. They enjoy group activities, thrive in social situations, and often express their thoughts openly. If you love parties, speaking in front of a crowd, and you make new friends easily, you might be an extrovert!
Introverts, on the other hand, prefer quiet time, deep conversations, and need space to recharge after socializing. They often enjoy reading, writing, or creative hobbies alone. If you feel drained after large social events and enjoy spending time in peaceful settings, you might be an introvert.
But here’s a fun fact—many people aren’t fully one or the other! Ambiverts have a mix of both traits. They can enjoy social events but also need alone time to recharge. If you like going out sometimes but also love staying home, you might be an ambivert! 
I think I’m more of an introvert—I love spending time in my garden and with my cats. What about you? Do you relate more to introverts or extroverts? Or are you somewhere in between?

Introvert vs Extrovert

Power dressing is something that many people neglect when it comes to personal development. It is because some feel that it is not important. Although, there are certain industries that need it more, I believe that it does matter, especially when you are building yourself.
