地球に優しいことしてますか？🌏

        如果问学中文普通话的朋友：哪一部分最难？相信很多人都会说：“声调，四个声调。” 我经常对学生说：“说中文普通话就像唱歌一样，其实不难。” 或许有人会说：你这是：“站着说话不腰疼”，我要说的是：如果您把最困难的“四声”问题解决好了，说好普通话其实还是一件挺愉快的事情。

Travelers often fly to New York or Paris just for the shopping experience, but according to a new report, it's Milan that should be called the capital of global shopping.

A real estate company has found that Via Monte Napoleone in Milan is the world's most expensive retail destination.

US firm Cushman & Wakefield ranked shopping areas based on the rent prices per square meter, and Milan has knocked New York's Fifth Avenue off the top of the list.

The average rent on the Milan street has risen to more than $20,800 per square meter compared with about $20,300 per square meter on an 11-block area of upper Fifth Avenue.

Via Monte Napoleone's small size — it's just 350 meters long — and walking distance to services and top cultural sites are among the street's key advantages, according to Guglielmo Miani, president of the Monte Napoleone District association.

"Not everything can fit, which is a benefit" since the limited space makes the street even more exclusive, said Miani.

The biggest brands on the street make more than $100 million in annual sales, Miani said, which goes a long way to paying the rent. Tiffany is preparing to open a store on Via Monte Napoleone, and luxury fashion store Fendi is expanding.

The Monte Napoleone District says 11 million people visited the area during the first 11 months of the year, but there's no way to say how many were big spenders and how many were just window shopping.

But according to shopping firm Global Blue, the average shopper on Via Monte Napoleone spent $2,600 per purchase between August and November — the highest average receipt in the world.

Officials from Fifth Avenue praised Milan for its efforts in making the street — and the city — a desirable place to shop.

But they added that the Italian city should enjoy its position at the top of the list while it can!

When it comes to memorizing vocabulary, there are several effective techniques you can employ. I am exploring some of them

Background Method:
This technique draws inspiration from the “memory palace” concept. Imagine placing new words or images representing those words in specific rooms within your mental palace. By associating words with spatial locations, you ground them in context. 
Process Words Deeply:
Instead of merely rote memorization, engage with the words deeply. Understand their meanings, etymology, and usage. Create mental connections by linking them to related concepts or personal experiences. 
Associate Words with Mental Images:
Visualize the word’s meaning. Create vivid mental images related to the word. Associating words with images enhances memory retention.
Review Words at Spaced Intervals:
Spaced repetition is a powerful technique. Instead of cramming, review words at regular intervals. Use flashcards or language-learning apps that incorporate spaced repetition algorithms. 
Use Mnemonics:
Create mnemonic devices to remember challenging words. Mnemonics can be acronyms, rhymes, or visual associations. 
Practice with Vocabulary Apps and Games:
Interactive apps and games make learning fun. Explore platforms like Duolingo, Memrise, or Quizlet. Gamified exercises reinforce vocabulary and keep you motivated.
Have a Dedicated Vocabulary Notebook:
Maintain a vocabulary journal. Write down new words, their meanings, and example sentences. Regularly review and revise your notebook. The act of writing reinforces memory.
Immerse Yourself in the Language:
Surround yourself with the target language. Read books, watch movies, listen to podcasts, and follow native speakers on social media. Remember, consistency and creativity are key. Experiment with different techniques to find what works best for you.
