La scorsa estate Jimmy si è divertito molto. È andato al mare in Sicilia. Anche se abita a Venezia, ama viaggiare per l’Italia, ammirare le città d’arte e assaggiare tutti i piatti tipici.

È voluto andare in Sicilia in aereo. Innanzitutto è atterrato a Palermo e per prima cosa ha voluto assaggiare i buonissimi arancini. Poi ha voluto visitare la cattedrale di Monreale, famosa in tutto il mondo.

Dopo qualche giorno è andato a Taormina, sulla costa orientale. Ha dovuto prendere un autobus perché non ama guidare. Taormina è una città bellissima e molto antica. Lì il mare è azzurro. Vicino a Taormina c’è anche il vulcano Etna. Jimmy ha potuto fare un’escursione sul vulcano insieme a una guida specializzata.

È potuto salire fino in cima. È stato stancante ma davvero molto bello.

Più tardi ha trascorso una settimana al mare a rilassarsi, a prendere il sole, a giocare a pallavolo sulla spiaggia, a nuotare e a mangiare piatti di pesce. 

Alla fine è tornato a Venezia dopo più di due settimane ed è andato subito a salutare il suo amico Marco. Ha mostrato le foto della vacanza al suo amico. Marco era molto arrabbiato: poiché è dovuto restare a Venezia per lavoro, non è potuto andare in vacanza.

Povero Marco!

Welcome back to another episode of Streetwise English. I'm your host, Carl. I'm an italki American English tutor. Today I want to talk about technical aids for learning languages. And specifically, I want to talk about headphones. So one of the most important things for improving your fluency in any foreign language is to listen to content in that target language.
So for me, I'm currently studying Spanish and trying to maintain my Chinese, so I don't forget it. So what I like to do every day is listen to podcasts. Now you can listen while you're doing other activities like washing your clothes or washing the dishes or exercising at the gym. You can listen to podcasts while you're on the treadmill. 

But the problem is headphones can smash your ears and make your ears uncomfortable. So what I like to do is use bone conduction headphones or earphones. It's a type of headphone that doesn't actually cover your ear canal. It goes in front of your ear and kind of sits on your face. Um, kind of behind your sideburns if you're a man, right in front of your ear and the sound transmits a vibration that goes into your skull and into your ear and your brain can hear the sound just from the vibrations going through your bones. And so they are called bone conduction headphones. I swear by them. And I use them every day. I have a pair which is charged with a USB C port.

So there are many different kinds of options on the market, but I like the ones that use a USB C port to charge them because I don't have to worry about losing the appropriate proprietary charging cord. Instead, I can just use any USB C charging cord to power up the headphones. 

So another advantage of using bone conduction headphones is that while you're wearing them, you can hear sounds outside of the content that you're listening to.
So for example, say, I'm running, I'm jogging and listening to my podcast which is in Chinese while I'm jogging. ( Text limit )
