Episode 08：この夏したいこと

Simplified Chinese version:
季子是中国古代人。有一次他去旅游，走累了就坐在路边休息。他看到地上有一块儿金子。他想：可能是别人不小心丢掉的吧！
因为季子是一个有钱人，所以他不想去捡这块儿金子。
这个时候，刚好有一个人经过。季子想：这个人很瘦，衣服也很旧，应该是一个乞丐。
季子对他说：“喂！这地上有一块儿金子，你捡去用吧！一会儿被其他乞丐捡走，你就什么都没有了！”
这个人听了非常生气，他说：“你凭什么认为我是乞丐？是因为我的衣服很旧？还是因为我很瘦？你觉得我佷可怜吗？”
这个人说：“今天就算你是有钱人，你都不可以这样对我说话！”
季子很不好意思，于是客气地问这个人的名字。这个人说：“你是一个没有礼貌的人，我不想告诉你我的名字。”

Traditional Chinese version:
季子是中國古代人。有一次他去旅遊，走累了就坐在路邊休息。他看到地上有一塊兒金子。他想：可能是別人不小心丟掉的吧！
因為季子是一個有錢人，所以他不想去撿這塊兒金子。
這個時候，剛好有一個人經過。季子想：這個人很瘦，衣服也很舊，應該是一個乞丐。
季子對他說：“餵！這地上有一塊兒金子，你撿去用吧！一會兒被其他乞丐撿走，你就什麼都沒有了！”
這個人聽了非常生氣，他說：“你憑什麼認為我是乞丐？是因為我的衣服很舊？還是因為我很瘦？你覺得我佷可憐嗎？”
這個人說：“今天就算你是有錢人，你都不可以這樣對我說話！”
季子很不好意思，於是客氣地問這個人的名字。這個人說：“你是一個沒有禮貌的人，我不想告訴你我的名字。”

English translation:
Jizi was a man of ancient China. Once he went on a journey, resting by the street side whenever he felt exhausted. He spotted a piece of gold on the ground. “Someone could have lost this by accident,“ thought Jizi.
Since Jizi was a wealthy man, he did not want to pick up this piece of gold.
Right at this moment, there was someone passing by. “This man is so scraggy, his clothes are tattered too, he’s got to be a beggar,” thought Jizi.
“Hey, there’s a piece of gold on the ground, go pick it up and use it! You will gain nothing if it were picked by other beggars later,” Jizi told him.
Enraged, this man said, “What makes you think of me as a beggar? Is it because my old clothes are too worn? Or is it because I am too skinny? Are you thinking that I am deplorable?”
“Even if you are a rich man, you should never talk to me like that!” the man said.
Jizi felt very embarrassed and asked this man’s politely what his name was. “You are a ill-mannered man, I don’t want to tell you,” said the man.

FLO TALKS 

گر بر فلکم دست بدی چون یزدان، برداشتمی من این جهان را زِ میان
وز نو فلکی دگر چنان ساختمی، کازاده به کام دل رسیدی آسان


Ah, Love! could you and I with him conspire, To grasp his sorry scheme of things entire
Wound not we shatter it to bits - and then, Re-mould it nearer to the heart's desire.

Persian Poetry

Khayyam - گر بر فلکم دست بدی چون یزدان

Ice cream for breakfast, potato chips all day long and lots of lying down — part of the reason we love going on holiday is because it can be a break from the normal routine of life.

But how can we stay healthy on holiday while still having a good time?

A lot of trips begin with an airplane. Time in the air can cause dehydration, so drink plenty of water and try to avoid too much alcohol and caffeine.

You should also wash your hands regularly on your flight, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

These are good rules to follow all through your trip. If you're going to have alcohol and caffeine, drink lots of water too — especially if you're in a hot place.

But be careful with the water you do drink, says travel expert Rick Steves. In some countries, tap water is good to drink, but you should check before you try it. Bottled water may be safer.

You'll also need to take care with street food. Look at how clean the place is, and whether other people are eating there — and get freshly cooked food when you can.

Katie Stone from the University of California at Davis says it's not a good idea to skip meals, because it may make you overeat later in the day. Keeping some healthy snacks with you will help with this, says the American Heart Association.

If you're visiting a city, you might be doing a lot of walking. But if you're on a pool or beach holiday, try to make sure you do some extra exercise, advises the British Heart Foundation.

And most of the experts say getting a good night's sleep is just as important on holiday as it is at home.
