今期雪條和朱古力請了兩位返場嘉賓雪糕和可樂上來一起討論獨立的人格是怎樣的，社會對獨立女性的定義是不是讓我們覺得我們就應該孤獨終老？我們會不會在嘗試走向獨立的時候過分苛刻自己而變得迷失？迷失的時候我們是怎麼面對的？

How can you use critical thinking more? Listen to the podcast to find some tips.

-------------------------

In English exams like the IELTS test, there are speaking or writing questions that require critical thinking skills. If you feel weak in this area, you’re not alone. Many people do. The reason is that critical thinking is challenging, and this isn’t helped by the fact that not all education systems or schools focus the same energy on developing such skills. So what does it mean to think critically, and how can you do it more often?

***What is critical thinking?***

There are many different aspects to critical thinking. It may be about using your knowledge to predict what consequences different actions will have. It may be about looking at information and then forming opinions or reaching conclusions. It may also be about understanding when some important information is missing, and being able to gather the extra information that you need. In your work life or student life, these skills are vital for finding solutions to problems. If you have them and can present your analyses to other people effectively, you will be a valued member of any forward-thinking team.

If you want to work on your critical thinking with a qualified, experienced teacher, and to practise applying it when speaking or writing, please get in contact with me or book a class.

Ciao, buongiorno, buon lunedì primo giorno di luglio.
Non volevo fare il podcast questa settimana, ma poi non ho resistito.
E semplicemente ho inziato a parlare.
E questo è il risultato.
Non c’è la trascrizione.
Non ci sono esercizi.
Per un momento mi sono sentita una speaker radiofonica.
Ma ci sono delle espressioni carine - “NON FATE I VAGHI”.
E la nuova parola è NEGHITTAGGINE.
Vi abbraccio virtualmente tutti e so che festeggerete un po’ con me.

It means working late into the night, often to meet a deadline. 
For instance, “I had to burn the midnight oil to finish my project on time.”
While it shows dedication, remember to balance hard work with rest.
