In today's episode we will learn the 5 simple rules for when to use the definite article 'the'. We'll also discover why we don't always use 'an' in front of a vowel (e.g., why do we say 'a useful lesson' but 'an hour'?), and we'll find out when not to use any article at all.

Ser x Estar 

《爱》

我爱你
不光因为你的样子
还因为
和你在一起时
我的样子

我爱你
不光因为你为我而做的事
还因为
为了你
我能做成的事

我爱你
因为你能唤出 我最真的那个部分
我爱你
因为你穿越我心灵的旷野
如同阳光穿透水晶般泳衣
我的杀气、我的弱点
在你的目光里几乎不存在
而在我心底最美丽的地方
却被你的光芒照得通亮

别人都不曾费心走那么远
别人都觉得寻找太麻烦
所以没人发现过我的美丽
所以没人到过这里

歌词：
有多久没见你
以为你在哪里
原来就住在我心底
陪伴着我的呼吸
有多远的距离
以为闻不到你气息
谁知道你背影这么长
回头就看到你
