Today I had an interesting English conversation lesson.
I have realized that English grammar is very different from my native language.
We also talked about language teachers and learning methods.
Another topic was the difficulty of learning English in China. I explained that China is relatively isolated from foreign media because many foreign websites are blocked. Most television programs, social media platforms, and online content are in Chinese, so many people have limited opportunities to hear authentic English. Although some people use VPNs, many have never used one or never worked in an international environment, so they rarely encounter English in daily life.
I said that German is quite popular in China because many German companies, especially automobile manufacturers such as Audi, have businesses there.
I shared that I studied business at university because my parents thought it was a practical and popular major.

I came across an interesting article online about working out when you are sick. I would like to share some of the interesting points here.
It's up to body status if it is okay to work out when you are sick, not depending on if you put your game face on. The basic criteria for judgement is that it is okay to work out lightly if the symptom appears above your neck. If the symptom appears below your neck, you shouldn't do that. This is famous criteria called "Neck Rule". The symptoms above your neck are as follows
1)Have stuffy nose like you are coming down with a cold.
2)Feel a bit discomfort around your throat such as you don't have strong pain or don't have a fever.
3)Have mild headache. Sometimes working out makes you feel better in the case that the symptom comes from stress and lack of sleep
4)Have hay fever. You can basically exercise. However, you should avoid doing that when you have difficulty breathing.
On the other hand, you must not work out if you fall under these symptoms below
A)Have a fever over 37.5 degrees. Immune system is working and exercising is counterproductive.
B)Feel a strong sense of fatigue. It is very danger that I can work out even though I'm feeling out of it
C)Can't stop coughing. Your lungs and bronchi can have inflammation.
D)Have a pain in your chest and out of breath. These are so dangerous situation. You must get some rest.
So, you can ask yourself the questions below to judge if you are not feeling well
Q1)Do you have a appetite? If no, skip work-out.
Q2)Do you get much sleep? If no, skip work-out
Q3)Do you think you will be able to recover if you exercise? If no, skip exercise.
I usually go to the gym once a week to work out. So, I'm a bit worried if I wasn't able to go to the gym all week because I feel like muscle loss happens quickly when I stop training. However, this is wrong.
