HSK1   第11课  现在几点

Picture this: You’re drowning in a sea of commitments, juggling work, family, and personal life. Your plate is overflowing, but you keep saying ‘yes’ to more. Sound familiar? We’ve all been there, my friend. The good news is that you can learn the art of saying ‘no’ without guilt and regain control of your life.

The ‘Yes’ Epidemic
Before we delve into the fine art of ‘no,’ let’s address the ‘yes’ epidemic. It’s a modern plague that we’ve all fallen victim to at some point. Fueled by the fear of disappointing others or missing out, we nod our heads like bobbleheads on steroids. Saying ‘yes’ to everything is a recipe for burnout, my fellow ‘yes’-aholics! Listen to the podcast to learn more!

Not at home

 Lisa puts her bicycle against a tree and walks to the front door of her student house.  There are two people standing there.  A young man and a young woman.  They look at the nameplates on the door.  "Hello," says Lisa.  The man and woman look at Lisa.  "Good afternoon," says the woman.  Lisa hears that she is from Belgium.  They do speak Dutch there, but it sounds different.  Softer.  friendly.  'Can I help you?'  asks Lisa.  "Please," says the woman.  'We're looking for Dan.  He lives here right?  Lisa nods¹.  'Yes, Daan lives here,' she says.  She opens the door and walks in.  The man and woman follow her.  'Daan lives in room 10,' says Lisa.  She points to the door at the end of the hallway.  "Thank you," says the woman.  The man nods to Lisa.  "Thanks," he says.  Lisa walks to room 6, which is her room.  Her own room in Amsterdam!  She has been studying here for almost a year now and she loves it
