we will make decision on the go
we don't need to make our decision final now  because we don't know what's gonna happen next, so we will see what happens  and make decisions based on the events !!!

“My English is poor” - Breaking Free: Step 2! Episode 395

Everyone carries a collection of beliefs, some that empower and others that hold us back. The real issue is that we often don’t understand how these beliefs impact us, or where they come from.

Are these beliefs supporting you? Are they sheltering you from a fear? Or are they outdated limitations that need to be released for you to progress?

Today’s podcast is Step Two in helping you understand, and challenge these deeply held beliefs. In just three minutes, you will encounter a set of powerful questions that can unlock the door to a new way of learning, and save you hundreds (perhaps thousands!) on your English language journey.

With my extensive experience of over 20,000 online coaching sessions, I know that these insights can transform your learning, quickly.

Jump in, enjoy the process and join me when you are ready to take the next step.

To your success!

哈喽，欢迎回到咱们的中文学习播客，我是小韩老师。上次带大家初尝中文趣味，今天，咱们一起钻进超火的《哪吒2》，从好玩又好懂的角度，解锁中文学习新姿势，小伙伴们，准备好一起嗨学中文啦！
文化探秘：《哪吒2》里的传统文化
 
这部电影可不只是一部动画电影，它更是一座中国传统文化的宝库，里面藏着好多有趣的知识，跟中文学习紧密相关。
 
- 建筑与绘画：影片里哪吒去的玉虚宫，那景色美轮美奂，宫殿布局和色彩，参考了宋徽宗的名画《瑞鹤图》，充满了东方韵味。“玉虚宫”这三个字，“玉”是玉石，象征珍贵美好；“虚”有空灵、神秘的感觉；“宫”就是宫殿。这三个字组合起来，光听名字，是不是就感觉很有仙气？
 
- 音乐非遗：电影里的音乐也大有来头，侗族大歌和呼麦这些非遗音乐，给影片添了不少奇幻色彩。“侗族大歌”，“侗族”是中国的少数民族，“大歌”就是大家一起唱的歌，声音和谐美妙，像大自然的交响乐。“呼麦”更神奇，一个人能同时发出好几个声音，“呼”是发出声音，“麦”在蒙古语里和喉咙有关，因为呼麦是用喉咙发声技巧唱出来的。
 
- 文物彩蛋：仔细看，电影里还有好多文物彩蛋。比如看守哪吒的结界兽，造型灵感来自三星堆青铜器，那独特的样子，带着古老神秘的气息。“三星堆”是四川的一个考古遗址，出土了好多奇特的文物，像青铜面具、青铜神树，这些文物让我们看到几千年前古人的智慧和创造力。
