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。

Get ready for a special treat! In this episode, I talk with Terri Creeden, an Executive Coach, trainer, and facilitator. Terri is a Certified Daring Way Facilitator and Dare to Lead Facilitator through the Brené Brown Education and Research Group. During our conversation, we talk about how to get a job while being authentic and vulnerable. Here are some gems from this episode:

"The employer will be most impressed by an authentic person sitting in front of them and not somebody who has canned, formulated responses that they've heard from every other candidate. Let them see who you really are and not who they are hoping you are."

"Anytime we are caught up managing our image, how we look and appear, and come across to somebody else, that immediately takes us right out of authenticity. So you're moving further away from what's really going to win you that interview."

"What leaders really want to see is that they can trust somebody. If you aren't able to say, "I need help, or I can't do that, or I don't know how to do that," they're going to have trouble trusting you." 

Tune in to get more valuable insights from Terri, so you're well prepared for your next job interview! The second part of our conversation will be released in the next episode.

Девушка, которая живёт на берегу озера. Часть 2. 

Another current part 2 topic with example answer.
As I commute into the city for work every day, I always do my best to avoid the rush hour traffic, which is not always easy. I usually get up at 6 am and catch the bus at 6.30 to beat the heavy traffic, and go for a relaxing coffee before starting work. 

 However, about 2 weeks ago, I slept in on a monday morning and didn’t wake up until 8am,missing the early bus, and not catching the next one until 8.30, which i knew would mean being late for work due to the traffic.

Normally the bus ride into the city centre takes about 45 minutes, but because of taking the bus during the peak rush hour it now took almost 2 hours. The traffic was unbelievable, and cars were bumper to bumper, moving at a snail’s pace, for the entire journey.

What made it even worse was that the bus was full, and passengers were packed like sardines , which also meant I had to stand for the full journey. To try and pass the time, I just read the  news using my mobile phone, as well as messaging my boss to let him know I would be late for work due to the heavy traffic.

I’m not the  most patient person and being stuck in a traffic jam like this is something I really hate, and always something I try to avoid. I also take pride in always being on time for work, and felt absolutely terrible  to be over an hour late on this day. I now set 2 alarms every night to make sure that this doesn’t happen again.
