はい、こんにちは。今回はポッドキャストのシーズン２の9回目です。もうすぐ桜の季節なので、日本に旅行を計画している生徒さんが多いです。去年も一昨年もコロナウイルスで、たくさんの有名な観光地が、お花見のために集まることを禁止していました。なので、今年のお花見は混雑するかもしれません。私の近所の公園にも桜が咲いています。これについては、去年の４月に録音したシーズン１の20回目でお話ししました。よかったら聞いてみてください。

Hello, This is episode 9 of season 2 of my podcast.  It will soon be cherry blossom season and many students are planning a trip to Japan. Last year and the year before, due to the coronavirus, many famous tourist attractions banned people from getting together for cherry blossom viewing. So this year’s cherry blossom viewing may be crowded. Cherry blossoms are also blooming in my neighbourhood park. I talked about this in the 20th episode of season 1, recorded last April. If you have time, please take a listen.

先週私は体調を崩しました。木曜日から目眩と動悸がして、週末にはもっとひどくなりました。日曜日の最初のレッスンが終わった後、すぐに病院に行くことにしました。私がいつも行っている歯医者の近くに、日曜日でも開いている内科の病院がありました。そこでCTI検査をして、原因を調べました。CTI検査では、体の中の写真を撮ります。検査では、胃が３倍ぐらいの大きさに膨らんで、他の内臓を圧迫していることが分かりました。お医者さんは「十二指腸の動きが弱くなっている」と説明してくれました。

Last week I fell ill. I started feeling dizzy and having palpitations on Thursday and it got worse over the weekend. I decided to go to the hospital immediately after my first lesson on Sunday. Near my regular dentist there was a medical hospital that was open on Sundays. There I had a CTI test to find out what was causing the problem; in a CTI test, pictures are taken of the inside of your body. The examination showed that my stomach had swelled to about three times its size and was pressing on my other internal organs. The doctor explained that the duodenum (the part that connects the stomach to the intestines) was weakening.

病院でもらった薬を飲んだら、症状は治りました。月曜日にもう一度検査をして、そのあと本屋に行って、社会学の本を３冊買いました。最近、Shrinkflationという英語の単語を知りました。日本語では同じ現象を「ステルス値下げ」と呼びます。「ステルス」は戦闘機の名前から取っています。「ステルス値下げ」は、消費者に気づかれないように原価を下げることです。たとえば、パッケージの大きさは変えずに、中のお菓子のサイズだけを小さくして、今までと同じ値段で売ります。

Hey Alexis!

Traveling Soon? How to ask for help when you're stuck at the airport

Why do smart, capable people suddenly become awkward and nervous around foreigners, managers, or clients?

In this episode, we talk about the real reason many people struggle in international communication — and it’s probably not your English level.

If you’ve ever overthought meetings, feared rejection, stayed quiet around authority figures, or felt intimidated by people from other cultures, this episode will completely change the way you see communication and confidence.

LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.


ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE EL SOL Y EL VIENTO.


Antes de comenzar la lectura.


1. ¿Prefieres los días calurosos o los días fríos?

2. ¿Que cosas puedes hacer en un clima caluroso?


Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor.


El sol y el viento discutían para ver quién era el más fuerte.
El viento decía: ¿Ves aquel anciano envuelto en una capa?
Te apuesto a que le haré quitar la capa más rápido que tú.

Se ocultó el sol tras una nube y comenzó a soplar el viento,
cada vez con más fuerza, hasta ser casi un ciclón,
pero cuanto más soplaba tanto más se envolvía el hombre en la capa.
Por fin el viento se calmó y se declaró vencido.

Y entonces salió el sol y sonrió dulcemente al anciano.
No pasó mucho tiempo hasta que el anciano,
acalorado, se quitó la capa.

El sol demostró entonces al viento que la suavidad
y el amor de los abrazos son más poderosos
que la furia y la fuerza.
