      D.不同的朋友决定不同的你

2）“近朱者赤，近墨者黑”的意思主要是：

听力内容：
       几年前，我参加了一个主题为“创造财富”的论坛。在讨论会上，一位发言人在演说过程中请听众做个游戏。他说：“请大家拿出一页纸，然后在纸上写下和你相处时间最多的6个朋友，也可以说是与你关系最亲密的6个朋友，记下他们每个人的月收入。然后，算出他们月收入的平均数。这个平均值便能反映出你个人月收入的多少。”
　　后来，我认识到了这个游戏的本质意义，那就是交际的力量，即结交朋友的重要性。中国有句老话：“近朱者赤，近墨者黑。” 它所讲的道理是一样的，即择友的重要性。朋友的影响力非常大，可以潜移默化地影响一个人的一生。
　　在这里，我并不想告诉大家如何去选择朋友。我想强调的是，如果你想在人生和事业上取得成功，必须小心谨慎地结交朋友。
　　如果你最亲密的朋友是公司的高级主管，那么你们在一起时所谈论的主要内容一定是关于如何管理和经营的；如果你最亲密的朋友是公司的职员，那么你们在一起时谈论的主要话题一定是关于如何工作的；如果你最亲密的朋友是房地产商，那么你们谈论的话题一定会是关于房地产的……
　　如果下一次你和朋友一起聊天儿，请记下你们谈论的主要话题，到时你就会明白这句话的重要意义。如果你想展翅高飞，那么请你多和雄鹰为伍，并成为其中的一员。

Comer - To eat

「断捨離（だんしゃり）」という言葉を聞いたことがありますか。簡単（かんたん）に言うと、物を捨てて、自由な時間と空間を持てば、心も自由になるという考え方です。私は毎朝毎晩、スマホがどこへ行ったか、さがしている人なので、耳が痛いです。けれども、今なら、服だけなら、できるかもしれない。なぜなら日本は「衣替え（ころもがえ）」の季節だから。私は無事（ぶじ）「衣替え」をすませて、心のリセットができたのでしょうか。

# 10 Exam TORFL (ТРКИ) B1 - Listening _part 3

Ayer SpanisHolidays “se vistió de etiqueta”. Este modismo lo utilizamos para indicar que alguien o algo se adapta a una situación en la que se requiere formas, protocolo y elegancia. No es que fuera a la ópera, no. Si no que por primera vez, lo presenté en una feria de turismo: el B-Travel, que es un encuentro internacional en Barcelona, del sector del turismo en  el que instituciones, países e iniciativas privadas presentan a sus países, y también exponen empresas de gestión turística en un espacio común.

お土産の思い出について話しました。みなさんは日本に来たらどんなものを買って帰りますか？💭

Ep.60 お土産の思い出🍘🛍💭

Cam Fairbairn was working in restaurants when he started a side hustle — work he did on top of his regular job — making and selling his own jam.

Making jam was a hobby, but he'd been encouraged by a friend to make it an extra source of income.

However, he soon stopped enjoying it when his hobby became a business. He went back to focusing on his day job.

But not everyone is so lucky. For some, a side hustle is not just a good way to make extra money from something you love — it's a necessity.

Shonnita Leslie had big education debts to pay, so while she was working at a university during the day, her side hustle was delivering food. She needed the extra money to pay off those debts.

And according to new data, Leslie is not alone.

A survey by Bankrate found that more than one third of Americans have a side hustle. Among those aged between 18 and 27, it's 48%.

Of the Americans with a side job, 36% use that extra money to pay for daily necessities like housing and food. And 32% said they think they'll always need a side hustle to make ends meet.

"People are telling us they're side hustling because they have to, not because they want to," Ted Rossman from Bankrate told CNBC.

The survey of more than 2,300 Americans also found that about 28% of people with a side hustle make at least $500 per month from their second job. Around 9% of people said they make more than $2,000.
