大家好，您正在收听中文播客《丹霞说》，我是丹霞。今天，我给你们说说一只小猫的故事。


有一只小猫叫噜噜，它非常饿，它已经两天没有吃东西了。今天，噜噜要去家里找东西吃。
上午，噜噜去了客厅，看见在桌子的上边有一杯热巧克力和一块面包，它不喜欢。
中午，噜噜去了书房，看见在电脑的旁边有一杯咖啡和一个苹果，它不喜欢。
下午，噜噜去了厨房，看见杯子里边有一点儿冰淇淋，冰淇淋太冷了，它不喜欢。
晚上，噜噜又去了客厅，看见椅子的旁边有一条小鱼和一点儿牛奶！它太高兴了！
噜噜最爱吃鱼，它吃了鱼，也喝了牛奶，嗯……真好吃！现在，噜噜要去卧室睡觉了！

这些词语你听明白了吗？

There is a kitten named lulu. It is very hungry. It has not eaten for two days. Today, Lulu is going to find something to eat at home.

In the morning, Lulu went to the living room and saw a cup of hot chocolate and a piece of bread on the table. It didn't like it.

At noon, Lulu went to the study and saw a cup of coffee and an apple next to the computer. It didn't like it.

In the afternoon, Lulu went to the kitchen and saw a little ice cream in the cup. The ice cream was too cold and he didn't like it.

In the evening, Lulu went to the living room again and saw a small fish and a little milk beside the chair! It's so happy!

Lulu likes fish best. It eats fish and drinks milk. HMM... it's delicious! Now, Lulu is going to the bedroom to sleep!

And explain how you felt about it.





“I’ve always had a great interest, and fascination with  anything related to Japan, especially Japanese manga comics and movies….so, about 2 years ago I decided that I’d try to learn the language, and also made a plan to visit Japan someday. 

Although I’d picked up some Japanese words, and phrases from watching movies and cartoons over the years, I still needed to start learning the language from scratch, and was at sixes and sevens on where to start.  One of my friends who actually studied Japanese in college, recommended a youtube channel to me, which is hosted by a native Japanese teacher, and I decided to give it a shot. 

 The video lessons were wonderful, and I found that I was able to start picking up the language very quickly, from the very first lesson, with the added bonus that it was all free!  The teacher was wonderful, and really helped make learning the language a lot of fun, as well as getting me off to a flying start, and after just a few weeks,  my Japanese started to improve by leaps and bounds.

The time flew by, and after just 6 months, I was actually able to have a basic conversation in Japanese which I felt extremely happy and proud of, and actually got to visit Japan about six months ago, which was absolutely amazing, especially as I was now able to communicate with the locals….all thanks to this amazing youtube channel. 


Thank you …”
