今天很开心。
今天上课的时候，苏告诉我，她在她的硕士（shuo4shi4, master）学习中用上了中文。苏是学心理学(xin1li3xue2)的，作为一名心理志愿者(zhi4yuan4zhe3, volunteer)去社区(she4qu1, community)服务(fu2wu4, to serve)是很重要学习内容。然后，她的服务对象(dui4xiang4, target)是一位76岁的老爷爷，而这位老爷爷是说中文的。
时间真的过的很快，不知不觉(bu4zhi1bu1jue2,unconsciouly)苏和我学习中文已经快一年了，从最开始的星期一星期二到现在能够流利的交流(jiao1liu2,to have social contact)，她真的太棒了。
苏说：老师，你知道吗？我刚到那位老爷爷家的时候，非常紧张。因为不知道自己能不能说！接着一切都很顺利，那个时候，我真的很感谢你啊！
听到这里我真的很开心，很感动(gan3dong4, move)。虽然我只是在电脑的这一边教中文，但是我可以通过让学生提高中文，然后帮助到别人。尽管（jin4guan3,even though）这个人我不认识，哪怕(na3 pa4, even)他在离我非常遥远(yao2yuan3, dictant)的地方。

How to Open a Bank Account in Türkiye: A Practical Guide with Real-Life Dialogues

The Democratic vice president Kamala Harris began the first — and possibly last — TV debate before the US presidential election with a power move, walking across the stage to shake Donald Trump's hand.

The two candidates had never met before the September 10 debate in Philadelphia, aired by ABC News.

"Let's have a good debate," Harris said.

"Nice to see you. Have fun," the former Republican president responded.

The exchange set the tone for the 90-minute debate to come: Harris controlled the conversation at times, tackling Trump on economic policy, crime, abortion rights, his refusal to concede his 2020 election loss and even his performance at his rallies.

Trump was measured at the start but grew more annoyed as the night went on.

Harris took the fight to Trump in a way that Joe Biden could not.

"You did in fact lose that election," Harris said of the 2020 race that Trump lost to Biden but still insists he won. "Donald Trump was fired by 81 million people," she said, referring to Biden's winning vote total.

A smiling Harris frequently shifted her message from Trump back to the American people.

"You will not hear him talk about your needs, your dreams and your needs and your desires," Harris said. "And I'll tell you, I believe you deserve a president who actually puts you first."

Trump was often on the defense, but he did push the main message of his campaign: inflation and immigration are causing Americans to suffer.

As he often does in his rallies and on social media, he made several false or unproven claims about migrants — including a debunked rumor that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, are hunting and eating pets. Officials in Springfield say they have no evidence of this happening.

"Talk about extreme," Harris said after Trump talked about dogs and cats being eaten.

Trump also tied Harris to Biden, falsely claiming the Biden-Harris administration caused the "worst inflation" the country has had.

El taco en México es uno de los platillos emblema a nivel internacional, por la gran variedad que tienen; desde tamaño, si son suaves o duros, hasta el contenido que lleva el taco. Desde un ingrediente hasta todo un platillo completo en un solo taco, los puedes encontrar desde un puesto en la calle hasta restaurantes gourmet.

Es considerado la comida rápida en México, pero con un excelente valor nutritivo. Puede ser un taco que tiene carne, verduras o frutas; o solo vegetales, puede ir desde carne al vapor o bien algún producto frito.

Usualmente la tortilla puede ser de varios ingredientes desde harina de trigo o nopal, o la tradicional harina de maíz.

La tortilla es consumida desde la época Precolombina y se prepara con un proceso de nixtamalización (maíz, agua y cal); después pasa por el metate para hacer la masa, y de ahí toma la forma de la tortilla.

Sin embargo, el taco hizo que, durante la época de la conquista, existiera la primera taquiza o el acto de comer en un colectivo tacos; iniciado por Hernán Cortes en Coyoacán.

Los primeros tacos eran de mole, guajolote y hasta de xoloitzcuintle (raza de perro). Antes de llegar a un estatus de comida gourmet, gracias a la nueva cocina mexicana, era considerada comida para la clase trabajadora.

El taco se puede dividir en 2 categorías, por tipo de carne o relleno y el otro por tipo de preparación.

Un mexicano te dirá que el éxito de un taco, más allá de la tortilla o el relleno, será la salsa. Este es uno de los ingredientes indispensables: desde una salsa roja (jitomate), salsa verde (tomate), guacamole (aguacate y chile serrano), pico de gallo (jitomate, cebolla y chile verde).
