The Adventures of Odyssea: Ch 5.2 - Nausico

大家好，您正在收听中文播客《丹霞说》，我是丹霞。今天我给大家说说白雪的爸爸。

白雪的爸爸叫夏东海，妈妈常常叫他老夏。老夏做的菜很好吃，他有一家饭店。叫“老夏饭店”。饭店不大，可是每天都有很多客人。饭店里有饭，有面条儿，果汁，还有很多菜。

白雪小的时候，每天都跟爸爸妈妈一起去饭店，他们三个人也在饭店吃早饭、午饭和晚饭，每天都很晚关门回家。可以说，饭店是白雪的第二个家。

客人们都很喜欢白雪，喜欢和她说话。白雪有大大的眼睛和小小的嘴巴，很可爱。爸爸妈妈很忙的时候，白雪也能帮忙给客人拿筷子，水和菜单。

白雪六岁的时候开始上学，爸爸每天早上给女儿准备午饭，因为白雪觉得学校的午饭不好吃，她喜欢吃爸爸做的。下午四点多，白雪从学校回到饭店，爸爸妈妈问她今天在学校学习了什么。如果饭店没有人来吃饭，爸爸会看白雪写作业。

Today I'll tell you about Bai Xue's father.

Bai Xue's father is named Xia Donghai, and his mother often calls him Lao Xia. Lao Xia's cooks very well. He has a restaurant. It's called "Laoxia Restaurant". The restaurant is not big, but there are many guests come every day. There are rice, noodles, fruit juice and many dishes in the restaurant.

When Bai Xue was young, she went to the restaurant with her parents every day. The three of them also had breakfast, lunch and dinner in the restaurant. They closed late every day and went home. It can be said that the restaurant is Bai Xue's second home.


The guests all like Bai Xue and like to talk to her. Bai Xue has big eyes and small mouth. She is adorable. When mom and dad are busy, Bai Xue can also help bring chopsticks, water and menus to guests.


Bai Xue started school when she was six. Her father prepares lunch for her daughter every morning. Because Bai Xue thinks the school lunch is not delicious, she likes to eat what her father makes.

At time past 4 pm., Bai Xue returned to the restaurant from school. Her parents asked her what she learned at school today. If no one comes to the restaurant for meal, dad will watch Bai Xue do her homework.

University Students Interested in Stress-Reducing Cats
While a number of universities offer students opportunities to play with dogs as a way to reduce stress, little is known about whether cats could help in the same way.

So researchers from the US and Belgium surveyed more than 1,400 students and staff from 19 Belgian universities to see how interested they would be in on-campus cat visiting programs.

Participants were asked seven questions about a possible cat program, including whether they would like to have a cat on campus, if they would find it relaxing, whether they would visit the cat, and whether they would recommend a cat program to other universities. They gave each idea a score out of five.

The average total score was 3.8 in favor of a campus cat.

The researchers found that the people with the most positive feelings about a cat program were women, cat owners, people who were more emotional, and — perhaps surprisingly — people who were interested in dog programs.

The study authors said that previous research has shown that emotional people are more likely to have strong relationships with animals.

However, dog owners, as well as people who were afraid of or allergic to cats, were found to be less interested in a cat program. Some also worried that having a cat on campus would be risky.

According to the researchers, the aim of the study was to find more ways to help people feel less stressed.

They believe cats can help, since including both cats and dogs in these stress-reducing programs could encourage more people to take part, and cats would need less training than dogs to help.

"I want to learn English."  This is the wrong goal!

Some people say that choosing the wrong goals can lead to self-sabotage.

When it comes to learning English (as it's the wrong goal in 90% of cases for my adult achievers), it leads to: A) lack of confidence (at some point in speaking); B) continuous self-doubt (on various levels). C) Never really experiencing delight and self-satisfaction about your progress.

Can you relate to any of the things I wrote above? Almost certainly, you can; some can confirm all three aspects.

Please listen to my words of love and care in this deep 10-minute heart-to-heart podcast from me to you as a gift to learn to finally choose the right goal for you and therefore to choose the right steps to follow to achieve this goal.

To have freedom, confidence, excitement, and the progress you'll be making from listening to this podcast onwards!!!

Much love and care,
Your personal coach and a challenger
