이번 주말에 소개팅 안 할래?
这个周末想不想相亲?

소개팅? 나는 소개팅할 시간 있으면, 맛있는 거 시켜 먹고, 집에서 뒹굴고 싶어.
相亲? 如果有相亲的时间, 我想点点儿好吃的, 在家打滚儿。

그렇게 쉬고 싶어? 이번 주에 일이 많았나 보네.
这么想休息? 看来这周你事挺多啊。

응, 회사일이 너무 바빴어. 저번 달부터 계속 야근에 주말 출근까지 하고 있었거든.
嗯, 公司里的事太忙了。上个月开始一直加班连周末都在上班。

Today I’m going to talk about elephant at zoo. An article of News Paper said that the number of elephant at zoo has decreased for this two decades. There are only 25 elephants at Japanese zoo. What happens at zoo? And I’ll talk about my memories of zoo. Thank you!

『ゾウがいなくなる？』 “Elephants at zoo will disappear in Japan”
動物園にはどんな動物がいるかな？と考えると、頭に浮かぶのは「ゾウ、ライオン、キリン、パンダ、ペンギン」などです。　世界中の珍しい動物たちが動物園にはいますよね。もともと日本にはいない動物を　動物園では見ることができます。ところが、先日　新聞に「アフリカゾウ消えゆく国内」という記事を見つけました。　その記事には、日本国内の動物園のゾウたちにも高齢化が進んでいる上に、オスが少ないためにゾウの赤ちゃんが生まれないと書かれていました。それで、この20年間に日本の動物園にいるゾウの数は半分にまで減って、今25頭しかいないそうです。　
ゾウと言えば、その長い鼻をホースのように使って水浴びをしたり、餌を口に運ぶ姿を思い浮かべるのではないでしょうか。大きな体で　のんびり動く姿を眺めていると癒される人もいると思います。そんな動物園のシンボル的存在のゾウがいなくなったら、寂しいですよね。　最近は動物園に行くこともほとんどありませんが、子どものころは学校から遠足や写生会でよく行きました。　私がよく行った動物園は神戸市にある王子動物園です。　小学校から写生会に行ったときのことを今でもよく覚えています。　何年生のときだったかは覚えていませんが、私はカバの絵を　水性絵の具で描きました。カバはあまり動かないので描きやすいと思ったのですが、水の中に入っている時間が長いので、実はカバを観察するのは難しかったです。そして、カバの色を絵の具で作るのも難しかったです。大きい画用紙から、はみ出るぐらい大きくカバの姿を描いた記憶があります。残念ながら、その時描いた絵は手元にありませんが、楽しい思い出が詰まった動物園。　桜が満開になるこの時期にまた足を運んでみたいと思います。

script: 
城市孩子上不了大学，对城市孩子影响不是那么大。但是农村孩子上不了大学，其实他就变成一辈子农民了。我觉得一个农民的孩子如果说能上上正规的大学的话，对他来说，扩大他的视野也好；扩大他对这个世界的理解以及人脉关系也好；以及他的自我认知也好，一定是有大大的好处。我相信进了大学整体来说命运总会变得更好。因为人们的想法是被观念改变的。那能够改变观念的人最好的地方就是大学。那他只要考上大学，哪怕是三本，是吧？那他大学四年给他的磨练；带来的眼光、感觉、格局肯定就不一样的。那个时候他再回到农村,他可能就变成农村的创业者，或者是变成农村中间最有想法的人。我觉得想法是改变世界的基础。

translation:
Being able to go to university or not has little effect on students from cities. But for students from rural areas, if they don't go to college, they will be lifelong farmers.
I think it would be good for a peasant's child to expand his horizons, understanding of the world， connections, and self-perception if he went to a proper university.
I think going to college will change your destiny. Because people's thoughts are changed by perspective. College is the best place to build a new perspective. As long as you can get into a university, even if it is just a third-class university. Four years of college life will change his new ideas and views. Then he goes back to the countryside, and he may start his own business, or he may become the most thoughtful person there. I think ideas are fundamental to changing the world.

10.俞敏洪：高考，农村孩子“改变”命运的唯一机会 Gaokao is the only chance for rural students to change their destiny.

A Chinese company claims it has built an electric vehicle battery that charges faster than any other.

The company, called Zeekr, says the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in just 10 minutes and 30 seconds — but only when the car is plugged into one of the company's super-fast charging stations.

It calls this a new charging speed record, although it can be hard to compare the charging speeds of different vehicles because some charging stations do not work as fast as others.

But, for example, Tesla's Model 3 can be charged to about half its range in 15 minutes.

A number of other EVs can boost their range by almost 200 kilometers with a 10-minute charge.

But Zeekr says that in 10-and-a-half minutes its new battery could be charged enough to boost a vehicle's range by about 500 kilometers.

The first of its cars to include the new battery is the 2025 Zeekr 007, which is on sale in China now.

Zeekr says it has already opened more than 500 of its super-fast charging stations in China, and plans to have 10,000 in 2026.

Chinese companies have been busy making EVs, offering customers a large amount of choice — something that people in some other countries, like the US, have been frustrated by.

As well as operating in China, Zeekr began selling its vehicles in the Netherlands and Sweden last year.

It plans to begin operating in Singapore by the end of 2024, and to open showrooms in Japan and South Korea in 2025.
