Circe, the sorceress

Jennifer goes on an investigation to find out the truth. Did Junior really steal his award-winning design or has Jennifer lost her mind?

This story uses words from '3000 most common words in English'. 


When Jennifer got home that day, she called her grandma. They caught up on the essentials: the move to the new city, the teachers at her school and if she liked her new bedroom. But then Jennifer got down to business.

She explained how this guy called Junior won a gardening award for most innovative design, being the youngest winner in the ceremony’s history. Jennifer’s grandma was supportive of this boy, the way grandparents are always supportive of any accomplishment, big or small. But Jennifer insisted that he was treated like an otherworldly superstar and that it didn’t seem right. 

Jennifer finally just said it. “I think Junior violated the competition rules by copying someone’s design, but I can’t prove it.”

“Oh, my dear, that’s cute, you’ve always loved coming up with adorable little theories. Do you 
remember your friend, Samantha? You two were always playing detectives. Sometimes I see her—”

“—Yes, grandma, but could you help? Take a photo of your neighbour’s garden, please. I think Junior copied her design.”

“Oh, sure thing, dear, I’ll take it after our call and send it straight away. So, tell me more about your new friends…”

Jennifer ended the call by ranting about the truth and how when people manipulate reality, they distort our ability to be authentic individuals. Her grandma kept repeating that’s sweet, dear.

Moments after the call ended, Jennifer received the photo. She compared it to Junior’s. They were identical.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天继续和大家聊一聊一些有趣的颜色短语。颜色我们一般用“深”和“浅”来形容。例如，浅蓝色，light blue，深蓝色，dark blue。如果一件衣服的颜色很多，或者很亮，我们可以说这件衣服颜色很鲜艳。“给点儿颜色看看”你知道是什么意思吗？它的意思是“让对方知道你的厉害，使对方感到害怕。”例如“他总是欺负我的好朋友，今天我要给他点儿颜色看看。”
我们来看看黑色有什么有意思的用法。第一个，黑心，一个人的心是黑色的，说明他的心很坏。例如“他是一个黑心商人，为了赚钱竟然卖过期的食品。”第二个，黑车。黑车不只是黑色的车，还有一个意思是“不合法经营的出租车”。如果一个人不小心上了黑车，那是很危险的。第三个，“拉黑”，拉到黑名单。如果你的微信上有一个朋友，你不想再收到他的信息，那你可以把他拉黑。最后一个，“黑脸”。如果我们说：“他黑着脸”，意思是他很不高兴。
接着我们来看看白色。第一个，小白，我们说一个人是小白，意思是他没有经验。例如“我刚接触这个工作，还是个小白，要向各位多多学习。”第二个，“白”加动词或者形容词。例如，“我去他公司找他，结果他不在，我白跑一趟了。”“本来以为他能陪我过生日，结果他要加班，我白高兴一场。这里的“白”是没有结果的意思。
哪个用法你觉得最有意思呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Episodio 5: Comidas típicas argentinas

Speaker one: I’ve had many language lessons over the years. My lessons at school were mundane and a waste of time. They involved rote learning which meant we just repeated everything the teacher said, and we had a lot of grammar lessons! However, when I started university, everything changed. The classes were engaging and practical. I remember a grammar lesson about conditionals in my first term. The teacher introduced the language through a funny picture story and included many engaging activities to help us work out the rules for ourselves and practice the language in a meaningful way. Not only was it enjoyable, but it was also effective as I left the class feeling like I’d really learned something.


Speaker two: Honestly, I think my most enjoyable English classes were at primary school. Our teacher, Miss Hinker was wonderful and very musical. She loved singing and taught us new songs all the time. She gave us musical instruments that we could use too. I’ll never forget the time she taught us a new song called ‘There was an old lady who swallowed a fly.’ I must have been around eight at the time. It was a song about a lady who ate many animals, finishing with a horse. It was hilarious. First, she showed us all the actions and then we sang the song many times and played the instruments. We laughed a lot, and I still remember the words to this day. I never wanted those lessons to end.
