#12 虫 Bugs

얼굴이 건조해지면서, 요즘에 피부가 당겨. 뭐 좋은 방법 없을까?
脸变干燥了, 皮肤也很绷。有什么好方法吗? 

난 스킨을 바른 후에, 집중적으로 수분크림을 바르면, 좀 낫더라고. 
我一般涂完爽肤水后, 再集中涂抹保湿霜, 就会好一些。 

나도 해 봐야겠다. 난 인터넷으로 검색만 해봤었거든.
我也要试试。我只在网上搜过。 

행동이 생각보다 훨씬 중요해. 몸 속 수분도 중요하니까, 
물도 자주 마시면 좋아질 거야. 
行动永远比想法重要。体内的水分也很重要, 经常喝水会好起来的。 

건조하다 干燥
당기다 绷
스킨 爽肤水
수분크림 保湿霜

GEPT Intermediate Level Listening Test: The Great Fire of London 

This episode explains the meaning of the proverb "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" with an example.

American English Proverbs

6 - You Can't Teach an Old Dog New Tricks

在中国山西省的浑源县，有一座很老很老、但是很有名的寺庙，叫作“悬空寺”。In Hunyuan County, Shanxi Province, China, there is an old, very old, but very famous temple called "The Hanging Temple".
        说它“老”，是因为它建在那里已经有1500多年了。它是在中国历史的长河中，有一个叫做“北魏”时期建造的。It's "old" because it's been there for more than 1,500 years. It was built during a period called the Northern Wei Dynasty in the long history of China.
        说它“有名”，是因为这个寺庙建得太奇巧了：它是建在一座山的半山悬崖峭壁上的。It is "famous" because the temple was built in a strange way: it was built on a cliff halfway up a mountain.
