"Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" by Robert Frost

A flight attendant approaches Matt to offer him a drink.


Flight Attendant
Would you like something to drink? We have soda, coffee and tea as well as alcoholic beverages.


Matt
Sure, how much are the drinks?


Flight Attendant
Non-alcoholic beverages are free of charge. Alcoholic drinks are five dollars each.


Matt
Ok. I'd like to have a cup of coffee, please. Are meals going to be served on this flight?


Flight Attendant
Dinner will be served halfway through the flight. I will also bring you a snack with your beverage.


Matt
Can we choose what we will have for dinner?


Flight Attendant
Certainly. I will be bringing the menu for you to choose from. We have chicken, fish, and beef.


Matt
Is a vegetarian meal available?


Flight Attendant
Yes, but only if you have requested a special meal when you booked your flight. If not, I will try to find some extra servings of vegetables for you.


Matt
That would be great. Thank you very much.

Pingping Chinese Beginner Lesson 1 Hello

内卷. The word 内 (nèi) means "inside," and 卷 (juǎn) means "to roll." Together, it looks like something is "rolling inward."
But in real life, 内卷 describes intense competition where everyone tries harder and harder, but the effort doesn’t lead to real progress. Instead, people just get more tired and stressed.
