Daily English Podcast Chapter # 8

今日は受験（じゅけん）、とくに入学試験（entrance examination）のお話です。私たちは人生の中で、いったい何回、入学試験を受けなければならないのでしょうか。最近は幼稚園（ようちえん kindergarten）から「お受験」がありますからね。親も子も、大変な時代です。その中に合って、私の受験回数は、多分最小（さいしょう minimun）だと思います。うふふ。えーそれから、日本の教育制度（きょういくせいど education system）と長い長い受験シーズンについても、ご紹介しますね。ちなみに「1千万円   ¥10,000,000≒77，190USD」という、お金の話が出てきますが、日本人が1年で働いてもらうお金の平均（へいきん average）は460万だと言われています。本当に、教育とお金の問題は出口が見えません。

Halo semua! 
Hari ini, kita akan membahas sesuatu yang dekat banget dengan keseharian kita.

Mungkin bagi orang asing, rutin memeriksa gigi adalah hal yang biasa. Tapi, bagi orang Indonesia, pergi ke dokter gigi adalah sesuatu yang sering dihindari. Bukan karena mahal atau tidak ada waktu, tapi karena... takut! Ya, takut sama suara bor, takut sama rasa sakit. Akhirnya, banyak orang yang lebih memilih minum obat penghilang rasa sakit daripada langsung pergi ke dokter gigi.

Pasti kalian juga pernah dengar orang bilang, "Aduh, mendingan sakit hati daripada ke dokter gigi, deh!" Nah, gimana menurut kalian? Lebih baik sakit gigi atau sakit hati?

Kalau saya sih, sejujurnya, dua-duanya tidak enak! Tapi kalau disuruh memilih, saya mungkin lebih memilih sakit gigi. Setidaknya, kalau sakit gigi, kita bisa pergi ke dokter gigi dan masalah selesai. Tapi kalau sakit hati? Aduh, masalahnya jadi panjang! Susah 'move on', bisa berlarut-larut dan butuh waktu lama untuk sembuh. Hahaha…

Jadi, ayo mulai sekarang, jaga gigi sebelum harus jaga hati yang terluka ya :p 
Sampai bertemu lagi di episode berikutnya, dada!

Akhir minggu

Sakit Gigi vs Sakit Hati

“都dōu”means “both/all”. The people or objects included are out before “都”.
For example：

tā men dōu xǐ huɑn hē chá 。 
他们都喜欢喝茶。

wǒ men dōu shì xué shenɡ 。 
我们都是学生。

每měi……都dōu……
In a sentence that contains the term “每”(every), usually “都” has to be inserted further along in the sentence, immediately in front of the verb.

tā měi tiān wǎn shɑnɡ dōu yù xí kè wén 。 
他每天晚上都预习课文。

wǒ měi jié kè dōu lái 。 
我每节课都来。

měi ɡè rén wǒ dōu rèn shí 。 
每个人我都认识。

Barbecue is a much-loved part of American food culture, with different areas having their own special flavors and cooking styles. From the Carolinas to Texas, there's a lot to learn about how barbecue styles are different across the country — and what better place to learn than at a museum!

Planned to open next spring in Kansas City, Missouri, the Museum of BBQ says it will be the world's first museum dedicated to teaching visitors about the history and culture of the cooking style.

"Barbecue is a feast for your senses," says food writer Jonathan Bender, who is opening the museum with chef Alex Pope. "Here in one of the BBQ capitals of the world, we're creating a place where you can immerse yourself in the stories of barbecue."

The museum will have rooms based on different barbecue styles, and what it calls "the main American regions of barbecue" — the Carolinas; Memphis, Tennessee; Texas; and Kansas City.



There will also be an oversized pot of "barbecue beans" for kids to play in, and a gift shop where visitors can buy things like barbecue spices, sauces and aprons.

Bender says the museum will be a place "where barbecue comes alive."

Kansas City is one of the barbecue capitals of the world, home to more than 100 local barbecue restaurants and many barbecue competitions. The city's barbecue style is famous for its "burnt ends" — charred pieces of slow-cooked beef brisket — often served with a thick, sweet, tomato-based sauce.

But the best styles and flavors are often debated among lovers of the cooking style — which is something the museum may help to encourage among its visitors!

"Barbecue isn't just food. It's culture," Bender told CNN Travel. And the founders hope visitors will come away from the museum with a new appreciation for barbecue and the community it creates.
