Un mar de palabras

یک روز باد و خورشید سر اینکه کدامشان قویتر است باهم بحث میکردند. آخر سر تصمیم گرفتند باهم مسابقه بدهند تا ببینند کدام قوی تر است.

مردی داشت از آن حوالی رد میشد خورشید گفت: "بیا ببینیم کدام از یک ما میتواند کت این مرد را از تنش دربیاورد؟"

باد قبول کرد. اول قرار شد باد امتحان کند.

باد همه ی قدرتش را جمع کرد و وزید و وزید و وزید. اما مرد نه تنها کتش را درنیاورد، بلکه کتش را بیشتر به خودش پیچید.

بعد نوبت خورشید شد.

قدرتش را جمع کرد و شروع کردن به تابیدن.

خورشید انقدر تابید و آفتاب را پهن کرد روی زمین، تا مرد گرمش شد و کتش را درآورد.

خورشید در مسابقه برنده شد.

前两天，和学生上课时，讨论起来如果城市是一个人，那么你对这个人的印象是什么样的。聊得非常开心，希望大家和我们一起讨论。
The other day, when I had class with my student, we talked about if we consider a city as a person, what would be the image of your city? We had a very interesting conversation. And I sincerely invite you to join our discussion. 

她说广州像一个小商贩，每天起早贪黑忙忙碌碌。但是他的生意总是做不了很大，一直是马马虎虎的样子。
She said Guangzhou is like a small trader. Working from dawn to dusk, hustling and bustling. But his business is always a small business, hard to expand. 
 
而一海之隔的香港却是个非常成功的生意人，西装革履，派头十足。值得广州好好学习。
Otherwise, Hong Kong which is in the Ocean apart is a very successful businessman. Wear fancy suits, and be very flamboyant. It’s a very good example for Guangzhou.

Are you ready to master the art of effective business communication? As an educator, my primary objective is to equip my Business English (BE) students with the skills they need to excel in the professional realm. In my class, we dive deep into the world of written communication, exploring the ins and outs of crafting compelling emails, memos, reports, and business letters. From understanding the core principles of effective writing to applying them in practical scenarios, I guide my students on a journey towards proficiency. Through engaging discussions and interactive exercises, we explore the importance of clarity, conciseness, and precision in communication. Grammar, punctuation, and formatting conventions are meticulously dissected, forming the building blocks of polished writing. Moving forward, we delve into the practical aspects of business communication, dissecting the components of impactful emails, constructing concise and effective memos, and mastering the art of persuasive report writing. Additionally, we explore the nuances of writing professional business letters, adapting our communication style to suit diverse audiences and contexts. Through role-playing activities and simulations, my students gain practical experience, preparing them to navigate real-world business scenarios with confidence.

How to Write  Emails, Memos, Reports, and Business Letters

Do you get tired in the afternoon? Experts say that's normal. The body has a natural rhythm that includes two drowsy periods every 24 hours, one at night and another between about 2 and 4 p.m.

So why not take a nap?

Experts say that taking a nap for less than 30 minutes — a so-called "power nap" — allows the brain to rest in a way that makes you more alert when you wake up. Research has also shown other benefits.

"We know it's an easy, helpful way to quickly boost your alertness, your concentration, your productivity, your creativity and your mood." says James Maas, who spent 48 years studying sleep as a Cornell University professor.

However, people shouldn't nap for too long, as they will fall into a deeper sleep, which is harder to wake up from.

Shorter naps are helpful for alertness and memory, says Sara Mednick, a sleep researcher at University of California-Irvine. Her research has found that naps work better than caffeine to improve brain function.

For a good nap, find a quiet, dark and cool space and set an alarm for 15 or 20 minutes.

Even if you feel like you haven't slept, you still get benefits, Mednick said. People often don't feel like they are asleep until they have reached a deeper sleep.

Short naps don't interfere with nighttime sleep, as long as they're not too late in the day. Try to take a nap at the same time every day, around 6 or 7 hours after waking up.

The only people who should avoid napping are those who have trouble sleeping at night, Maas says. Older people should be careful because they tend to nap for too long during the day.

And if you don't like napping? Research has shown that napping is not for everyone. And Mednick's advice for people who really don't like to nap is: "Listen to your body."
