Resfriarse (to catch a cold)

Я думаю, вы уже знаете, что я живу на Среднем Урале в Свердловской области. Столица Свердловской области - город Екатеринбург. А ещё Екатеринбург - самый большой город на границе Европы и Азии.
В 18 веке известный российский историк Василий Татищев провёл границу Европы и Азии по Уральским горам. В 1846 году на границе Европы и Азии поставили первый каменный столб (обелиск). На территории Свердловской области построили 34 обелиска «Европа-Азия».
Вы можете увидеть такой памятник недалеко от Екатеринбурга. Это огромный мраморный постамент со смотровой площадкой и металлической скульптурой. С одной стороны написано – Азия, а с другой стороны – Европа.  В основание символа границы положили два камня. Один камень привезли с самой крайней точки Европы - мыса Рока, а другой - с самого края азиатской части континента – мыса Дежнёва.
Здесь можно не только сделать интересные фото и купить сувениры. Можно послушать русские песни, выпить чаю с национальными русскими десертами. А ещё можно получить именной сертификат «Нарушителя границы». Туристы очень любят это уникальное место и часто приезжают сюда на экскурсии.

По-русски легко!

Короткие истории. 3. Где граница Европы и Азии?

English Version
"이에요, 예요." Song

"이에요, 예요." means "It is" or "This is"~
We use it to explain something~
Names, jobs, or the name of an object~
When you talk to someone, it’s used!

"I am a student." is "나는 학생이에요"~
"My friend is a doctor." is "내 친구는 의사예요"~
If there’s a final sound, use "이에요"~
If there’s no final sound, use "예요"~

"이에요, 예요." – don’t get confused~
If there’s a final sound, it’s "이에요"!
If there’s no final sound, it’s "예요"!

"It's a bag" is "가방이에요" – that's correct~
"It's a rose" is "장미예요" – that's correct~

What’s a final sound.
 Let’s find out together~
"책" has a final sound, so it’s "이에요"!
"바나나" has none, so it’s "예요"!

"이에요, 예요." – don’t get confused~
If there’s a final sound, it’s "이에요"!
If there’s no final sound, it’s "예요"

Now you know "이에요, 예요." so well~
Singing makes learning so easy!

감사합니다.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
大家知道成语吗？成语一般是四个字，很多成语背后都有一个故事。我们可以用四个字的成语来表达一些特定的意思。如果你和中国人聊天的时候说成语，他们一定会觉得你的中文非常厉害。那今天我们来学一些带有动物的成语吧。
第一个是鼠目寸光。它的意思是：老鼠的眼睛只能看到一寸远的地方。一寸是3.33厘米，很短的距离。所以这个成语可以用来形容一个人只考虑眼前的事情，没有远见。例如，一个老板只考虑现在赚更多的钱，不考虑公司以后的发展，我们可以说他鼠目寸光。
第二个是对牛弹琴。它的意思是，对一头牛弹琴，牛一点儿也听不懂。所以这个成语可以用来表示，跟不懂的人说是没有用的，浪费时间。例如，你朋友对科幻电影一点也不懂，一点也不感兴趣。你和他说了半天，真是对牛弹琴。
第三个是望子成龙。它的意思是，希望自己的孩子能成为一条龙。这个成语用来表示，父母希望自己的子女能在学业和事业上有成就。例如，许多家长望子成龙，星期日也不休息，陪着孩子去上各种各样的培训班。
最后一个是马到成功。它的意思是，马一到就成功了。这个成语用来表示成功迅速而且顺利，我们可以用来鼓励别人。例如，你的朋友要参加一个重要的比赛，或者有一个重要的工作，你可以跟他说：“祝你马到成功。”
你还知道哪些成语呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

男：最近年轻人多了一个吃饭的地方：超市。不是点外卖，也不是去附近的饭馆点菜，而是在公司或者小区楼下附近的超市去吃食堂。
女：嗯，同时，多家超市也进军了快餐业。
男：以北京为例，什么样的价格呢？15块钱的自助餐，30种荤素菜肴吃到饱。不仅是吸引了办公人群，同时连大学生也愿意来消费。
女：嗯，消费者说这方便省事儿，关键价格还便宜。另外啊超市经营者说核心啊，就是告别预制菜，天天平价。
男：专家说玩的就是比外卖更新鲜，比饭店更便宜。
女：坦白说最近几年这个电商超市非常火啊，配送的效率也很高，这对实体超市的冲击确实不小，但是现在呢超市把一些年轻人又拽回来了啊。超市本来就有食材，缺的就是个吃饭的地儿。地儿也有了，吃完饭顺便逛逛，或者逛完顺便吃个饭，主打一个效率。
男：但是不管在哪儿吃哈，这个食品安全都是最重要的。
