成语故事-Stories of Ancient Chinese Idioms

一鸣惊人

听众朋友你们好，欢迎来到茶时话中文，我是Penny。这是一个纯中文话题节目，我来和你用中文聊聊生活中有意思的话题，同时学习一些汉语词汇。让我们一边喝茶一边聊起来吧。 

学习中文的你，听说过“早恋”这个词吗？这个词的意思，其实就是青少年时期的恋爱。这个词在中文中的意思，隐含着一种社会性的不认可。确实，多年以来，青春期孩子的“早恋”，让中国的老师和家长都如临大敌。

青少年情窦初开，喜欢上了同龄的异性，本来就是非常自然的事情。但是多年以来，在中国的大多数学校里，这样的事情都是被严厉禁止的。大人们担心“早恋”会影响孩子的学习成绩，更别提出现过早的性行为，导致严重后果了。虽然，这样的担心不无道理，但是，严厉禁止更有可能酿成大祸。因为心理学上有个效应，就是越被强力阻止的恋爱，越容易促进关系的发展。多年以来家长和老师对待“早恋”的高压政策，并没有实质性的改善这个现象。

其实，这样的现象主要归因于大人们的教育方式的问题。高压、禁止早恋，不是正确的教育方式。我想，正确的方式是善于引导孩子，让他们能正确的认识这个问题。对孩子的两性教育也是非常的重要，应该从小学阶段开始。这样的话，到了孩子开始喜欢异性的时候，就能够正确面对。青春期的孩子应该充分了解到此时谈恋爱可能会给自己的人生带来的影响，比如影响成绩导致影响升学，过早的性行为可能造成的严重后果等。但是话说回来，早恋代表着孩子开始长大成人，并开始探索亲密关系和什么是真正的爱。在我看来，这就是“早恋”的积极一面。只是希望中国的父母能更开明一些，不要过于的控制孩子的生活。近两年来，其实很多的中国家长已经能做的很好了，不过于干涉青少年的生活，让他们自由自信地成长。

好了，感谢你的收听，希望你喜欢今天的节目，我们下次见。

Another part 2 topic for the Summer. I also have part 3 example answers on my website.


“Well, as I live in a very busy city, I sometimes really need to escape the noise, and crowds, as well as finding a place where I can just chill out and relax in peace.  My favourite place to go is a small cafe which is about 3 kilometres from my home, and only takes me about 10 minutes to get to on my motorbike. The cafe is located in the suburbs on an extremely beautiful lake, surrounded by many different kinds of trees, and is a world apart from the busy city centre.

 

I try to go there at least 3 or 4 times a week, and usually bring my laptop with me, as I find I can be very productive in this peaceful environment, and get lots of work done, in a short space of time. I love being able to sit at a quiet table outside on a perfect sunny day, with the many trees to shade me from the hot sun. I’m also able to sit right on the bank of the lake, with a view which is out of this world.

 

I guess the main reason I love to go to this place is because it’s just so quiet and peaceful, and I can get away from all the noise, as well as the hustle and bustle of the city centre, which sometimes drives me crazy. Another reason I like to go to this place is that I find the tranquil environment really, both inspires and motivates me in my work….. And I’m able to be much more productive than I would be if sitting in a noisy office or a busy city centre coffee shop. So…yea, this is a quiet place i love to go to.

"Less is more," they say. And a new social media trend is supporting this idea by encouraging people to stop buying new things, and use what they already have.

"Underconsumption core" content shows people using items and wearing clothes they've had for a long time, instead of buying new things often promoted by influencers.

In the last decade or so, social media has become the home of influencer marketing, where popular content creators use their platforms to promote products to their followers.

This might be anything from showing clothes they've recently bought to opening — or "unboxing" — new products and reviewing them.

According to Statista, 28% of TikTok users bought products influenced by celebrity content in 2022. But some people are growing tired of being told what to buy.

Diana Wiebe, a TikTok creator and self-named "de-influencer," went viral in 2023 when she posted a video of herself reacting to an influencer shopping at Target, an American discount retail chain.

In the video, Wiebe can be seen calling almost every item she sees "garbage," adding, "You don't need that." Many TikTok users supported her message in the comments.

Talking to Atlanta-based Scripps News, Wiebe explained that the new trend is "a direct rejection of overconsumption."

Another TikTok creator, Sabrina Pare, is sharing the same message to her 250,000 followers through videos showing her using items she's had for years, as well as reusing old materials and wearing secondhand clothes.

The content shows followers how underconsumption saves money and is better for the environment.

A 2017 report estimated that 83 million metric tons of shoes and clothing was thrown away in 2015, and that could increase to 134 million metric tons by 2030.

While Wiebe told Scripps News that companies making new products may have the biggest impact on the environment, she added, "If we consume less, they're not going to produce as much, and hopefully there will be less waste as well."
