(podcast #3) 고등학교에서 어느 과목을 가장 좋아했어요? (1B) (Which subject did you like the most in high school?)

我费了好长时间才弄清楚他是从哪里来的。
It took me a long time to learn where he came from.

小王子向我提出了很多问题，可是，对我提出的问题，他好像压根没有听见似的。
The little prince, who asked me so many questions, never seemed to hear the ones I asked him.


他无意中吐露的一些话逐渐使我搞清了他的来历。
It wasfrom words dropped by chance that, little by little, everything was revealed to me.

例如，当他第一次瞅见我的飞机时（我就不画出我的飞机了，因为这种图画对我来说太复杂），他问我道： “这是个啥玩艺？”
The first time he saw my airplane, for instance (I shall not draw my airplane; that would be much too complicated for me), he asked me: "What is that object?"
这不是玩艺儿。它能飞。
That is not an object. It flies.
这是飞机。是我的飞机。
It is an airplane. It is my airplane.

我当时很骄傲地告诉他我能飞。
And I was proud to have him learn that I could fly.
于是他惊奇地说道：“怎么？你是从天上掉下来的？”
He cried out, then:"What! You dropped down from the sky?"
“是的”。我谦逊地答道。
"Yes," I answered, modestly.
啊！这真滑稽。
Oh! That is funny!


此时小王子发出一阵清脆的笑声。这使我很不高兴。
And the little prince broke into a lovely peal of laughter, which irritated me very much.
我要求别人严肃地对待我的不幸。
I like my misfortunes to be taken seriously.
然后，他又说道：“那么，你也是从天上来的了！你是哪个星球上的？”
Then he added: "So you, too, come from the sky! Which is your planet?"

这个时候，对于他是从哪里来的这个秘密我隐约发现到了一点线索；
At that moment I caught a gleam of light in the impenetrable mystery of his presence;

于是，我就突然问道：“你是从另一个星球上来的吗？”
and I demanded, abruptly: "Do you come from another planet?"
可是他不回答我的问题。
But he did not reply.
他一面看着我的飞机，一面微微地点点头，接着说道：
He tossed his head gently, without taking his eyes from my plane:


可不是么，乘坐这玩艺儿，你不可能是从很远的地方来的。
It is true that on that you can’t have come from very far away.

我们来看看道德经的第二章。

天下皆知美之为美，斯恶已；皆知善之为善，斯不善矣。有无相生，难易相成，长短相形，高下相盈，音声相和，前后相随。是以圣人处无为之事，行不言之教。万物作，焉而弗辞，生而弗有，为而弗恃，功成而弗居。夫唯弗居，是以不去。

根据老子的思想，万物都是相对的。比如美和丑，善和恶，长和短，有和无。他们互相对立，也互相依赖。If the beauty is everywhere, no one will see it as beautiful anymore. So we shouldn’t push too hard on the things we cannot control. For example, if all the girls do the plastic surgery to become a standard beauty, there would be no one considered beautiful, because everyone is the same. Diversity is beautiful. 所以，老子说，我们要随万物生长而不去限制和控制，这样的无为，也就是不去做一些事，符合道。放下了强烈的我执，有时候选择不去做一些事，比去做还要困难。但是很多情况下，无为，不去做，才是智慧。 

感谢收听，下次见~

Are you ready to become a powerful presenter? As an educator, my mission is to unlock the presentation skills of my Business English (BE) students. In today's professional world, the ability to deliver captivating talks is a game-changer. In my classroom, I guide students on structuring their presentations, using impactful visuals, delivering engaging speeches, conquering nerves, and acing audience questions. By exploring the secrets of great presentations, we learn how to captivate audiences from the very beginning, organize ideas effectively, and leave a lasting impression. We delve into the art of visual design, creating visually stunning slides that enhance our messages. Through practice and feedback, students develop their unique speaking styles, mastering storytelling, body language, and voice variation. We address the fear of public speaking head-on, equipping students with techniques to manage nerves and build confidence. Additionally, we tackle the art of answering audience questions with poise and precision. With a supportive environment and practical strategies, I empower my students to become confident presenters who leave a lasting impact.
