Learn Three Sentences a Day: DAY9

In this episode, we’ll explore the subtle but important differences between “均匀” and “平均.” These two seemingly similar words often get confused, but they actually have distinct meanings and usages. Let’s dive into their definitions and how they’re used in everyday Chinese. By the end, you’ll know when to use each one and sound more natural in your conversations!

Who is average? 均匀 or 平均?

我的第一号、第二号作品的不成功，使我泄了气。
I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two.
这些大人们，靠他们自己什么也弄不懂，还得老是不断地给他们作解释。这真叫孩子们腻味。
Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

后来，我只好选择了另外一个职业，我学会了开飞机，
So then I chose another profession, and learned to pilot airplanes.


世界各地差不多都飞到过。的确，地理学帮了我很大的忙。
I have flown a little over all parts of the world; and it is true that geography has been very useful to me.
我一眼就能分辨出中国和亚里桑那。
At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona.
要是夜里迷失了航向，这是很有用的。
If one gets lost in the night, such knowledge is valuable.


这样，在我的生活中，我跟许多严肃的人有过很多的接触。
In the course of this life I have had a great many encounters with a great many people who have been concerned with matters of consequence.

我在大人们中间生活过很长时间。
I have lived a great deal among grown-ups.
我仔细地观察过他们，但这并没有使我对他们的看法有多大的改变。
I have seen them intimately, close at hand.And that hasn’t much improved my opinion of them.
当我遇到一个头脑看来稍微清楚的大人时，
Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted,


我就拿出一直保存着的我那第一号作品来测试测试他。
I tried the experiment of showing him my Drawing Number One, which I have always kept.


我想知道他是否真的有理解能力。
I would try to find out, so, if this was a person of true understanding.
可是，得到的回答总是：“这是顶帽子。”
But, whoever it was, he, or she, would always say: “That is a hat.”
我就不和他谈巨蟒呀，原始森林呀，或者星星之类的事。
Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors, or primeval forests, or stars.

我只得迁就他们的水平，和他们谈些桥牌呀，高尔夫球呀，政治呀，领带呀这些。
I would bring myself down to his level. I would talk to him about bridge,and golf, and politics, and neckties.
于是大人们就十分高兴能认识我这样一个通情达理的人。
And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【周末的打算】。
上个周末中国的公司都要上班，因为中秋节和国庆节放了8天假。一般如果有一周左右的长假，那么前面或者后面的周末需要上班，这个做法叫做“调休”。所以实际上8天的长假有4天是周末，只有4天是真正的假期。我经常跟学生说：“好羡慕你们啊，有那么多假期。中国的假期估计是全世界最少的。”
我的朋友们上个星期六开始上班，要上到这周五，连续上7天班。网友开玩笑说：“如果你觉得放假8天时间过得很快，那么很快你就知道7天有多慢了。”我自己是自由职业，所以我的工作时间跟大家不太一样。我是有时候工作有时候休息，没有很长的假期，所以也没有假期综合症。记得以前在公司上班的时候，长假过后回去上班的第一天，经常很不适应，一直跟同事开玩笑说：“我已经忘了我是做什么工作的了。”我更喜欢现在的工作方式，没有假期综合症的烦恼。
这个周末我打算和朋友一起去广州的老城区逛一逛，打卡一些美食店。广州是一座美食之都，有句俗语叫“食在广州”，说明广州美食很多，广州人也很懂美食。在广州你可以吃到全国各地，甚至是全世界各地的美食。我在云南生活半年后回到广州，最想念的是早茶。和朋友们一起喝茶、吃点心，从早上吃到下午，谈天说地，真的很开心。
你这个周末有什么打算呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
