Charities: good or bad?
The number of charities in the UK is enormous, with more than 600 registered cancer charities alone, and more than 200 charities for homeless people in London. Most of these charities depend on donations to raise money, and often on volunteers  to do the work. While the passion of so many people who want to help is wonderful, this situation is not ideal. More and more charities are now doing similar work and competing with each other for money. As a consequence, they are forced to spend more on marketing, rather than actually helping people. This means some people are losing confidence in charities and giving them Less money. What should society do about this?

David Sedaris’ short story “Jesus Shaves” is a humorous story with an important message. While it makes the subject seem light, the overall message shows how communication and cultural barriers can prevent us from growing together as a society. It also shows how we do not necessarily try to understand each others cultures and often give up in the process.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【中国的酒文化】。
中国的酒文化博大精深。一壶美酒从千百年前传承到现在，酒已经成了生活中必不可少的饮品。酒的酿造,在我国有着相当悠久的历史。三四千年前，勤劳的祖先就发明了酿酒技术。
在古代，主人和宾客一起饮酒时，要相互跪拜。晚辈在长辈面前饮酒，通常要先行跪拜礼，然后坐入次席。长辈让晚辈饮酒，晚辈才可举杯；长辈酒杯中的酒尚未饮完，晚辈也不能先饮尽。
到了现代则没有那么复杂，一般是由主人说一些祝酒词；由晚辈倒酒以示尊敬；敬酒时要按顺序来，不能这一个那一个。
细数整个历史，中国的文学艺术家和酒有着很大的缘分。李白是唐代伟大的浪漫主义诗人。他每逢作诗作词必定要酒相伴,不喝就写不出来，越喝写诗词越顺畅，诗词越美。
与酒有关的诗句也有很多。例如“酒逢知己千杯少”，意思是指酒桌上遇到知己，喝一千杯酒都还嫌少。形容性情相投的人聚在一起总不厌倦。还有“何以解忧，唯有杜康”，意思是：有什么可以排解我的忧愁，那就只有美酒了。（相传酒是杜康发明的，所以常常会用杜康这个人名来指代美酒）。还有一句“醉翁之意不在酒”，比喻一个人做一件事的本意不在此，而在别的方面。
你们国家的酒文化是什么样的？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
