Катя любит красиво и модно одеваться. Сегодня Катя открыла шкаф и подумала: «Мне нужна новая одежда!». В шкафу было много платьев, несколько джинсов, восемь свитеров, двадцать одна блузка и три пальто… Все женщины знают эту ситуацию: шкаф полный, а надеть нечего. Катя пошла в магазин. Там она долго выбирала, что лучше купить. И Катя купила красивый шерстяной шарф и тёплые перчатки.  Это был удачный шоппинг!

6. El camote o la batata (sweet potato)

Savez-vous ce que veut dire « avoir vent de… » ? Et ce qu'est une question pointue ? Thomas Fersen va vous l'apprendre avec poésie, humour et… tendresse.

Paroles de la chanson : Les tours d'horloge

Depuis ton départ
Lyon est une gare
et moi je suis resté lyonnais.
Tu es sur la ligne
moi à la consigne
avec mes pièces de monnaie.

REFRAIN :
Et les tours d'horloge
me serrent la gorge.
Chaque seconde me tue.
Sait-on où tu loges ?
Quand reviendras-tu ?
Comme ces questions sont pointues.

Et le long du Rhône,
c'est pour ton fantôme
que je laisse pendre ma main.
Maudissant ton nom
car, du cabanon,
tu me fais prendre le chemin.

REFRAIN

Et puis tu reviens
dans mon quotidien,
j'apprends par le carnet du jour
Qu'aujourd'hui les cloches
célèbrent tes noces
avec un autre, mon amour.

REFRAIN

Quand d'autres rencontres
dérèglent ma montre,
alors je connais le repos
Mais à chaque fois
que j'ai vent de toi,
je cavale après mon chapeau.

How to Decrease Anxiety and Avoid Burnout

        李白(701- 762), 是中国唐朝时期著名的诗人，他小时候对学习很不感兴趣，经常跑到外边玩儿。一天，李白在河边发现一位老婆婆竟然在磨一根铁棒子。李白觉得很好奇，就走过去问老婆婆在干什么，原来老婆婆的孙女要学绣花，她要给孙女做一根绣花针。
        李白听完以后，像大部分孩子一样哈哈大笑，因为他认为把铁棒子磨成绣花针太浪费时间了，等老婆婆磨好了，她孙女可能也变成老婆婆了。可是，老婆婆自信地告诉他：“只要功夫深，铁杆磨成针。”
        听完老婆婆的回答，李白突然明白了一个道理：无论做什么事情，只要坚持就可能成功。从此，李白就开始努力学习、积累知识，最终成为一名伟大的诗人。

        看完这个谚语故事，你知道努力和坚持对成功有多么重要了吧？

功夫 [gōng fu] workmanship; skill
铁杵磨成针[tiě chǔ mó chénɡ zhēn]
an iron pestle can be ground down to a needle — perseverance will prevail
老婆婆[lǎo po pó] granny(used by children in addressing an old woman)
绣花[xiù huā]embroider; do embroidery


Li Bai (701- 762) was a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty of China. When he was young, Li Bai was not interested in learning at all, and he often went out playing. One day, Li Bai saw an old woman grinding an iron pestle by the river. He felt so curious that he went over and asked the old woman what she was doing . It turned out that she was making a needle for her granddaughter to learn embroidery. 
Having heard this, Li Bai laughed as most kids would do, because he thought it was a waste of time to grind an iron pestle into a needle and that by the day the needle was made, her granddaughter would have turned into an old woman herself. However, the old woman told him with confidence: "As long as you work hard enough, an iron pestle can be ground down to a needle." 
Suddenly Li Bai realized that perseverance would help one succeed in everything. From then on, Li Bai began to study hard and accumulate knowledge. He finally became a great poet! 
After reading this story, you must have learned how important hard work and perseverance are to success.

УРОК 5 Города и страны

There are many reasons why you should speak about money in the workplace such as salary negotiations, sales and purchasing, accounting, budgeting and resources... the list goes on.

However, whatever the reason there are always some drawbacks to discussing money:

You are talking about your money. The person you are engaging with will be focused on their money. You might need to check the basic assumptions to check that you and your opponent are talking about the same thing as often this is not the case. You need to express different perspectives and points of view on values, inputs and outputs, and ownership, etc., which can be difficult, and sometimes delicate, to do.

SHIFT THE FOCUS FROM PRICE TO VALUE

Talk in a way that places focus on the benefits you can offer your counterpart and not what claims you want to make for yourself personally. What savings can you give, what profits can you enhance? This is also particularly relevant when you are in an interview, as you can show what an economical advantage it would be for you to be hired rather than the next person, as businesses are always interested in those that can help boost business!
