サンタさんへの手紙～私が5-7歳の時に書いた手紙を紹介します～

В первом выпуске, вы узнаете, что такое сказка, и почему нам так интересно их читать, а ещё познакомитесь с основными типами сказок. Это хороший старт, чтобы начать изучать русскую литературу и культуру.

Russian with a tale

Что такое сказка? 

Part 2 of 6. 

Jack, a pocket-sized blue book with yellow text and white pages, climbed up the library steps, knocked on the modern glass doors and was let in by the security guard. It was an hour before the library opened to the public. 

“Mornin’ Jack,” said the security guard. “I’ve been dying to see you this morning. Could you whip me up a Frappuccino?” 

Jack’s life swirled around coffee. Not only was it his profession, it was his passion and life’s purpose. The library café had been in his family for six generations. Ever since Jack was capable of walking on his two feet, he was working at the café. In due time, Jack had mastered all aspects of coffee making, from grinding and roasting beans to excellent customer service, and everything in between. His father supervised him closely, making sure their state-of-the-art coffee machine was used properly. When Jack was ready, his mother showed him how to create artistic designs using the frothed milk. 

“You’ll have to wait a bit longer,” replied Jack. “I’ve got some extra housekeeping to do this morning. I’ll get it to you at opening time.” 

The island café was placed in the center of the public sitting area. It was surrounded by seven medium-sized tables. Today Jack had to prepare a new shipment of Columbian beans by grinding them and storing them away. After doing that, he mopped around the seating area and wiped the tables. Finally, Jack sliced some cheese for his most popular item, the cheese bread rolls. 

Jack switched on his beloved coffee machine and listened to it hum as it warmed up. With his hand on the steam wand, Jack caught his reflection in the pressure and temperature dials of the machine. Looking back at him was a newly-discovered shiny white hair.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
上个星期给大家介绍了中国的教育制度，包括有什么学校、重要的考试和每个学期的时间等等。今天再给大家介绍下在学校里我们学习什么。
幼儿园的孩子主要通过故事、儿歌、游戏等形式，培养听、说、读、写能力，提高他们的语言表达和沟通能力。他们也会学一些简单的数学、科学知识。中国小学一年级到六年级的科目包括语文、数学、英语、科学、社会与生活、美术、音乐、体育与健康、信息技术等。英语课一般是三年级开始，不过越来越多的孩子很小就开始学英语。小学一天大概有6节课，每个学校不太一样。
初中要学习的科目包括语文、数学、英语、政治、历史、生物、地理、物理、化学、体育、音乐和美术。 物理一般是从初中二年级开始学的，化学一般是从初中三年级开始学的。高中的科目和初中差不多，但高中的知识量比初中的大很多。
大学专业非常多，高考成绩出来后可以根据你的分数选择大学和专业。受欢迎的热门专业一直在变化，2024年高考热门理科专业有：电气工程及其自动化、电子信息工程等；热门文科专业有：工商管理、会计学、法学等。
除了普通学校，也有一些家长选择让孩子读国际学校。国际学校的学生英语能力更强，发展也更全面。很多国际学校的学生不参加高考，直接申请国外的大学。当然，国际学校学费也是很贵的，普通家庭的孩子很难去上这样的学校。
在你的国家最热门的专业是什么呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
