C'est bientôt vendredi 13, pour certains ça porte bonheur pour d'autres ça porte malheur, mais pour être honnête j'ai longtemps été indifférente à cette date. Malheureusement, j'ai changé d'avis quand nous avons connu les attentats de Paris le vendredi 13 Novembre 2015, depuis j'y pense à chaque vendredi 13. Ce jour-là, je voulais aller à Paris après le travail, j'avais envoyé un message à une amie pour se retrouver et boire un verre ensemble, mais le temps que je me prépare j'ai manqué mon train, et finalement le train suivant me faisait arriver trop tard alors on a annulé. Une chance pour moi tandis que d'autres ont vécu le pire... Mais bon, changeons de sujet, récemment j'ai discuté avec quelques élèves des superstitions qu'ils ont et c'était super intéressant, honnêtement je croyais que je n’étais superstitieuse, c'est vrai, je n'ai jamais considéré que passer sous une échelle ou voir un chat noir pouvait être un mauvais signe mais quand même j’ai réalisé que je croise toujours les doigts quand on parle de malheur, que je n’accepterais jamais d’ouvrir un parapluie à l’intérieur d’une maison ou de laisser une baguette à l’envers, pas la peine de penser à prendre l’avion un vendredi 13 d'ailleurs quelques compagnies aériennes n'ont même pas de rangée numéro 13 dans leurs avions, et si un jour au hasard d'une promenade je venais à trouver un trèfle à quatre feuilles je pense que je sauterais de joie. Alors finalement peut-être que je suis un peu superstitieuse. D'ailleurs ça m'a fait un peu bizarre quand j'ai réalisé que cet épisode serait le numéro 13 sur le thème du vendredi 13 ! Aïe ! Mais il paraît que ça porte malheur d'être superstitieux alors j'ai décidé de publier quand même cet épisode !

#8誕生日の目標【N1】

New Year is the perfect time for people to try new things, like changing their diet or habits. Some people take part in Veganuary, an annual challenge where they avoid eating animal products like meat, dairy, or eggs during January.

Veganuary first started in 2014 as a fun way to explore a vegan lifestyle and see how it feels. Since then, plant-based eating has gained popularity, and it's not uncommon for restaurants to offer at least one vegan option on their menus.

But a study has found that many meat-eaters end up feeling disgusted by meat after trying Veganuary.

Researchers studied 40 meat-eaters before and after Veganuary.

They found that, although most participants went back to eating meat when the month had ended, they felt more disgusted about doing so. And people who ate the least amount of meat during the challenge felt the most disgust afterwards.

A separate 2023 study on 46 Veganuary participants found that they were much less likely to describe themselves as meat-eaters after taking part in the challenge.

Scientists suggest that this change happens because people feel uncomfortable when their actions don't match their beliefs. Many enjoy the taste and convenience of eating meat, but they also feel guilty about the cruelty of factory farming.

So by giving up meat during Veganuary, participants may start to think more about these issues and develop negative feelings toward eating meat.

This research shows that even a short-term change in behavior can change the way you think, says Natalia Lawrence, a scientist from the University of Exeter who worked on the studies.

"Normally, the idea is to educate people first to change their attitudes, and hopefully they end up changing their behaviour," she told The Guardian.

"But if you persuade people to change their behaviour for a month, it seems that these things follow."

In questo episodio, ascolteremo cosa succede quando qualcuno decide di iscriversi all'Anagrafe del proprio comune di residenza. Avremo l'opportunità di seguire un dialogo tra una persona che ha bisogno di registrarsi e un impiegato del comune che la guida attraverso i vari passi. Attraverso la loro conversazione, scopriremo quali documenti sono necessari e come si svolge il processo. Ma non si tratta solo di burocrazia; ascolteremo anche come si sviluppa l'interazione tra le due persone, dagli scambi di base fino alla risoluzione di eventuali problemi che possono emergere. Questo episodio è pensato per chi deve affrontare questo passaggio o per chi semplicemente vuole sapere di più su come funziona la registrazione all'anagrafe, il tutto raccontato in modo diretto e con un occhio alla realtà quotidiana degli uffici anagrafe italiani.

おはようございます！Atsushiです。
今日の北海道の天気は曇りです。
気温は、22℃です。
日が照っていないので、少し肌寒く感じます。

さて、今日は、移動手段について。
どこかへ行く時の方法のことですね。

みなさんは生活で移動する時、何を使いますか？
歩きますか？
自転車ですか？
電車ですか？
バスですか？
車ですか？
バイクですか？

日本ではいろんな移動手段がありますが、一般的に多いのは、電車や車だと思います。

東京や大阪、それに続く大きな都市では、基本的に電車を使うことが多いです。休みの日は車を使う、という人が多いかもしれません。ですが、住む場所によっては、電車よりも車の方が便利な場所も多いです。

例えば、地方や、電車が少ない場所など、ですね。

私は、
大阪に住んでいる時は、ほとんど電車で移動していました。
岡山や、鳥取では、ほとんど車で移動していました。
今住んでいる北海道では、車で移動しています。

北海道では電車の値段が高いと思います。
車で移動した方が1回の移動は安くてすみますし、旅行などで遠くへ行く時も便利です。

今は夏なので良いですが、北海道の冬は雪が積もるので、きっと大変だと思います。

また冬に車の話をしますね！


はい、ということで、今日も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
