А поговорить?!

Не откладывай на завтра то, что можно сделать сегодня

The Paralympic Games are starting in Paris! So today I have a couple of pieces of vocabulary for you that come from sport and we can use at work. We have three idioms today, all involving balls. These are "get the ball rolling", "drop the ball", and "keep your eye on the ball". I hope you find them useful

"The Mouse and the Snake" is a short story by David Sedaris that explores themes of fear, vulnerability, and the unexpected connections between strangers. In the story, Sedaris recounts an incident from his childhood when he found a dead mouse in his family's pool. Initially repulsed, he decides to dispose of it by throwing it over the fence into a neighbor's yard. However, when he goes to retrieve it later, he discovers that a snake has coiled itself around the mouse, preparing to eat it.

We all have colleagues who like to speak their minds. Perhaps we could even call these people aggressive or harsh. However, there are definitely other pieces of vocabulary we could use here. Today we're looking at the word "direct", "to speak one's mind", and "to sugar coat" something.

This is terrible work. I can't believe you did this!

In this episode we are going to learn how to 【Ask questions】. Don't forget to put your answers in comment.

As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know alreay, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practise until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
