CAPITULO 12 : ¿Cazando o pescando? 🐙 CHAPTER 12 : Hunting or fishing?

According to a national report, the youth market, and particularly young people aged 16-24 years old, are watching far less TV on traditional sets than they were in 2010. Those still watching on TV sets are typically over 65. This is because there has been a shift to digital viewing (e.g. on You Tube), together with the rise of online services such as Netflix and Amazon.
The report indicates a growing difference in the lifestyle habits of younger and older viewers. On top of that, younger viewers are also more critical of the standard of traditional TV. They complained about the number of repeats and the lack of variety.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【外卖】的话题。
在中国，每天都有很多人点外卖。你不仅可以点早餐、午餐和晚餐，还可以点下午茶和宵夜。打开外卖app，各种各样的美食让你选个够。每天不重样，一点也不夸张。
现在中国的外卖行业，主要是美团和饿了么两大平台。每天在路上我们可以看到穿着黄色衣服的美团外卖小哥和蓝色衣服的饿了么外卖小哥，骑着电动车送外卖。外卖行业差不多是2010年开始的，2012年到2016年是快速发展的时期。
如今外卖服务已经是每个人生活中不可或缺的一部分。在中国体验过外卖服务的外国人甚至把外卖服务称为世界第九大奇迹，因为中国的外卖服务真的太方便了。
第一，速度快。点个外卖基本上30分钟以内可以送到，距离比较近的不到20分钟就到了。
第二，种类多。什么类型的美食都可以用打包盒装好，送到你的家里。除了美食，还可以买菜，买药，买花等等。
第三，便宜。在app点外卖，经常可以领到优惠券。如果成为会员，每个月付12块钱的会员费就可以领4个5元的红包。这些红包在你点外卖的时候可以抵扣。
第四，方便。只要动动手在app下单，半个小时后就可以吃到热乎乎的美食，还不用洗碗。这对于很多忙碌疲惫的人来说，是一日三餐的最佳选择。
那么点外卖有没有一些缺点呢？我觉得还是有的。首先，便宜的外卖食材可能不够新鲜，吃多了对身体不太好。而且很多外卖都是重口味的，吃多了很容易变胖。因为叫外卖太方便了，大家随时都能下订单，无形中也增加了食物的摄入。
我享受外卖带给我的方便，不过我大部分时间还是自己在家做饭，偶尔会叫外卖换换口味。
你呢？你经常点外卖吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Personal development requires time and money investments. I want to share a valuable lesson that can help you achieve your goals this new year. "The Rich becomes richer because they invest in skills and knowledge rather than things."

FLO TALKS 

"The Rich becomes richer because they invest in skills and knowledge."

You may sometimes notice people at airports wearing a green lanyard with sunflowers on it. This is usually worn by people who have a hidden disability — disabilities that can't always be seen from the outside, such as learning difficulties or autism.

But soon, you might start noticing the Sunflower lanyard somewhere new: Lego pieces.

The toy company announced on December 3 — International Day of Persons with Disabilities — that it has partnered with Hidden Disabilities Sunflower, the UK company that first created the lanyards in 2016.

Lego is releasing three sets featuring the lanyard: one for its Duplo toys, which are for kids under the age of 8; an airport set for older children; and a set with over 3,000 pieces for adults. The sets will go on sale between January and June 2025.

People will also be able to add the Sunflower lanyard when customizing their own Lego pieces at official Lego stores in parts of Europe and North America.

The Lego Group said it's proud to have created what it calls "the world's first toys to feature the official Sunflower lanyard," and hopes the sets will promote inclusion for people of different ages and with different disabilities.

On Lego's website, Martin Moxness, an adult Sunflower lanyard user, said seeing the lanyard on Lego pieces will help normalize hidden disabilities.

"As a child, this would have been life-changing and would have made me feel seen and accepted," he added.

According to the World Health Organization, one in six people around the world lives with some form of disability, many of them hidden. Disability inclusion is an important part of achieving health for all, it said.

Over 280 airports around the world now recognize the Sunflower lanyard, Hidden Disabilities said.
