# 7 Short story 'She will be a teacher'  (+transcription)

Today we talk about young.
What is young?  related to age?  or depend on appearance? maybe something inside?
今天是3月18日，我的城市，天气晴，17到26度，越来越热了。
早上出门的时候，我遇到我的邻居，她是一位80多岁的老奶奶。“奶奶，早上好！”我大声的打招呼。这位奶奶之前生了一场大病，所以她现在走路很难，每一步都只能往前走10厘米，她希望自己走的快一些，但是她的腿和脚都不行。她对我笑了笑，然后说“年轻真好！”
年轻，我已经很长时间不认为自己年轻了，可是，老奶奶说的很对，她80多岁，在她看来，我当然很年轻。
你觉得年轻是什么？18岁，28岁，还是30岁以前？看起来很帅很漂亮，而不是别人觉得你是个又老又丑的人？有些人认为年轻是一种状态，和几岁没有关系。
我呢，我觉得，年轻不是你几岁，而是你有没有下面这些能力。
第一个能力是吃，你能吃所有的东西，你知道有些人甚至不能吃糖
第二个能力是睡，现在的人很多已经不能好好睡觉了，他们已经离不开电脑和手机，上床以后想各种各样的事情，就是没法睡觉。
第三，最重要的是，对每件事情，每一天，你是不是都充满着希望和激情。只有这样，一个人才是真的年轻，每一天都是新的生活。
你怎么看的呢？欢迎来和我讨论。

가: “서울역에 가 주세요.” (Please go to Seoul Station.)
나: “서울역이요?” (Seoul station?)
가: “맞아요.” (That’s right!)

Let’s imagine you’re asking a native Korean about some location. 
Or you should tell a taxi driver your destination. 
You are trying to explain where to go. 
Then he or she might ask you back because he wants to make sure.
Then you want to say “that’s right! That’s where I want to go! You’re right!” 
In this case, you can use this expression.
