Learning Chinese through Stories
Using more than 99% target language, LCTS听故事说中文 creates authentic and immersive Chinese language podcast. It covers a wide range of topics and proficiency levels(Novice, Intermediate, Advanced). Every story has two parts: story (A) and story explanation (B), accompanied by annotated vocabulary and transcript. For example, an episode titled ”2.3.12 A” means this episode is at the level of Intermediate High (2.3), is the 12th episode created for this level, and is the story, not story explanation. You can also read along with the stories and explanations by becoming our patrons.

3.3.26B《乡下人家》Story walkthrough
Welcome to 听故事说中文, the podcast where stories come alive to help you improve your Chinese language proficiency and cultural competency. In this episode we journey to the world of rural Chinese life, as captured through the evocative words of 陈醉云. Picture a humble village home, where melon vines gracefully climb trellises and vibrant gourds dangle like nature's own ornaments. These scenes, with their verdant greens and lively reds, form a unique charm that outshines the grandeur of urban stone lions and towering flagpoles. In this episode, we delve into the simple yet magnificent rural landscapes, where peonies and dahlias bloom according to the seasons, offering a glimpse into the rustic elegance of farm life. Imagine wandering among bamboo groves, discovering fresh shoots peeking through the earth, or witnessing the daily rituals of hens and their chicks foraging in harmony with nature. As evening falls, envision villagers dining under the open sky, surrounded by the gentle hues of dusk and the soothing chorus of katydids. This is a portrait of tranquility and harmony that only the countryside can offer. Join us as we explore these captivating stories, and don’t forget to share your thoughts and comments with us.

2.2.52B《一碗清汤面》Story Walkthrough
Welcome to another episode of 听故事说中文! In this heartwarming story by 栗良平, we follow the tradition of a humble noodle shop in Tokyo named "小丸子" that stays open late every New Year's Eve.
On one particularly cold New Year's Eve, a young mother and her two children, dressed in shabby clothes, enter the shop. The kind-hearted owners, moved by their plight, serve them a bowl of noodle soup with extra ingredients. This simple act of kindness becomes an annual tradition, and over the years, the children grow up and return to the shop, now successful young adults, to relive the cherished memory of their past. Please let us know if you like the story or have any topic you want us to cover . R&S

Our episode today brings you tales of the utterly unpredictable, the charmingly aloof, and the irresistibly cute, all wrapped up in one bundle of fur – the domestic cat. It's adapted based on an article written by Laoshe 老舍(1899-1966). 老舍 is a highly influential Chinese writer and playwright known for his significant contributions to 20th-century Chinese literature. Born in Beijing, he had a deep connection with the city and its people, which is often reflected in his works.
Lao She's writing is characterized by a keen sense of social observation and a subtle, often satirical, sense of humor. His works offer profound insights into the complexities of human nature and the evolving social landscapes of his time.
Some of his most notable works include:
- "Rickshaw Boy" (骆驼祥子): This novel is one of Lao She's most celebrated works and tells the story of the struggles of a rickshaw puller in Beijing. It explores themes of poverty, ambition, and the challenges faced by the working class in the city.
- "Teahouse" (茶馆): A renowned play, "Teahouse" is considered a classic of modern Chinese drama. Set in a Beijing teahouse, it spans 50 years of Chinese history, offering a rich portrayal of society's transformation during that period.
- "Cat" (猫): This novella tells the story of a stray cat's experiences in 1930s Beijing. Through the cat's encounters with various people, it explores the complexities of human society and social hierarchies.

Back to China - A Conversation with Liulang In this episode, Yang Liulang shared with us his recent trip to China with his family. They went through layovers and long flights to finally arrive in Beijing. In Beijing, they reunited with family and tried to immerse their children in Chinese culture by visiting famous landmarks, but many required advance reservations.
This trip gave their children a more direct understanding of Chinese culture and the various aspects of Chinese life, including using WeChat Pay and Meituan for daily activities. The only challenge was the prevalence of smoking in public places. Enjoy.

In this episode, we'll take you on a journey into Rui's childhood memories in a place called "Gou li" 🌄. It was all mountains, forests, and hardworking parents, and her grandparents from Shandong who added a dash of flavor to their lives 🌳👨👩👦👦.
As a kid, Rui was a bit of a loner, but that just made her imagination run wild 🧚♂️ - from pretending to be a kung-fu hero 🥋 to catching frogs after the rain 🐸. And oh, the frog-catching, that turned into some delicious frog dishes 🍲.
Join us as we share the vivid sights, sounds, and tastes of Rui's formative years, painting a vivid picture of a simpler, yet incredibly rich, childhood 🎨🌟.

Today, we have something special to share with you—a heartfelt letter written by a granddaughter during the Qingming Jie, a time of remembrance and honoring our ancestors. In the letter, she recalled the small gestures of love, like secretly giving us pocket money for candies and patiently waiting at the school gate every day. As I read this letter, it reminded me of my own dear grandma, who recently left us but forever holds a special place in my heart. Hopefully you can also take a moment to reflect on your own experiences with your grandparents, those precious moments that have shaped your life.

《一边......一边......》LCTS grammar series to level up your Chinese
In this episode, we will be discussing a common grammatical structure in Chinese that expresses the idea of "doing two things at the same time". This structure is known as "一边......一边......" (yī biān...yī biān...) and is often used to convey coordination between actions. We will explore various examples of this structure in use.
We're always excited to hear from you. If you have any questions, comments, or additional examples to share, we'd love to hear from you.

1.3.34B《刻舟求剑》Story Walkthrough
1.3.34A《刻舟求剑》 Story
Notch the boat in search of the sword, a classic story from Master Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals（吕氏春秋） (239 BC)
3.3.21A《天梯》Story
In this episode, we'll be taking a closer look at an explosive masterpiece created by the renowned Chinese artist Cai Guoqiang - "天梯" (Tianti), which translates to "Sky Ladder."
Tianti is a breathtaking firework artwork that was first unveiled in 2015 in the city of Quanzhou, China. The piece consists of a series of ladder-like structures, which are suspended in mid-air and then set alight, creating a stunning display of light and sound. The result is a truly awe-inspiring spectacle that captures the beauty and power of fire.
Cai Guoqiang is no stranger to creating spectacular firework displays, having worked on many high-profile events around the world, including the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. However, Tianti is a unique and deeply personal work for him, inspired by childhood memories of his grandmother and the idea of reaching for the heavens.
In this episode, we'll explore the inspiration behind Tianti, the technical challenges of creating such an intricate and complex artwork, and the cultural and symbolic significance of firework art in Chinese history and tradition.

In this episode, we're going to dive into the meaning and significance of a popular Mandarin Chinese song called "他一定很爱你" (Tā yídìng hěn ài nǐ), which translates to "He Definitely Loves You."

3.1.23A《一字一年2022》Story
Last year, we created an episode centered around one Hanzi to encapsulate the spirit of 2021. The episode proved to be wildly popular and was one of our most downloaded episodes of the year.
This year, we're featuring seven individuals from various backgrounds including students, young professionals, moms, and retirees. We're excited to share their words of the year for 2022 with our patrons.
Among the most frequently mentioned words are "time flies," "luck," "pain," "virus," "busy," "poor," "good," and "dream." We were moved by the heartfelt responses and the unique perspectives each person brought.
We know it's already March. And, we're curious, what's your phrase or word of 2022?

Dear listeners,
Last year, we created an episode that revolved around a single Hanzi to capture the essence of 2021. The episode resonated with our listeners and became one of our most downloaded episodes of the year.
This year, we are thrilled to present seven individuals from diverse backgrounds, including students, young professionals, moms, and retirees. They will share their words of the year for 2022 with you. We were deeply moved by their heartfelt responses and unique perspectives.
The most commonly mentioned words were "time flies," "luck," "pain," "virus," "busy," "poor," "good," and "dream." We appreciate the candor of our guests and hope that their words inspire you in the year to come.
We realize that we are already in March, but we are still interested in hearing your phrase or word for 2022. We look forward to hearing from you.
Warm regards,
Rui and Simeng

领着孩子 常回家看看
带上笑容 带上祝愿
陪同爱人 常回家看看
妈妈准备了一些唠叨
爸爸张罗了一桌好饭
生活的烦恼跟妈妈说说
工作的事情向爸爸谈谈
常回家看看 回家看看
哪怕帮妈妈刷刷筷子洗洗碗
老人不图儿女为家做多大贡献呀
一辈子不容易就图个团团圆圆
常回家看看 回家看看
哪怕给爸爸捶捶后背揉揉肩
老人不图儿女为家做多大贡献呀
一辈子总操心只奔个平平安安

2.3.16A《做饭点外卖哪个更划算》
Cook at home or Order delivery ? Which one do you choose ?
在一二线城市工作的人，大多习惯了在饭点时打开订餐APP叫个外卖，知道哪家店的外卖便当特别好吃，哪家店送餐速度特别快，若是想吃清淡的点哪家，想吃重口味的叫哪家……不管你是在办公室里加班到深夜，还是回家饥肠辘辘嗷嗷待哺，只要掏出手机，等待几十分钟，就能吃到热腾腾的饭菜。
Zài yī èrxiàn chéngshì gōngzuò de rén , dàduō xíguàn le zài fàn diǎn shí dǎkāi dìngcān APP jiào ge wàimài , zhīdào nǎ jiā diàn de wàimài biàndàng tèbié hǎochī , nǎ jiā diàn sòng cān sùdù tèbié kuài , ruòshì xiǎng chī qīngdàn de diǎn nǎ jiā , xiǎng chī zhòng kǒuwèi de jiào nǎ jiā ……bùguǎn nǐ shì zài bàngōngshì lǐ jiābān dào shēnyè , hái shì huíjiā jī cháng lù lù áoáodàibǔ, zhǐyào tāochūshǒujī , děngdài jǐshí fēnzhōng , jiù néng chī dào rè téngténg de fàncài .
外卖已经成为快节奏生活中必不可少的一部分。
Wàimài yǐjīng chéngwéi kuài jiézòu shēnghuó Zhōng bìbùkěshǎo de yībùfèn .
做饭是一件看起来很不“划算”的事。
Zuòfàn shì yī jiàn kàn qǐlái hěn bù " huásuàn " de shì .
当一个人决定做饭，需要花上一个小时买菜，两个小时洗菜炒菜，但是吃完这一顿饭只要10分钟，另外还需要花上半个小时整理厨房。而这三个半小时的时间，其实可以用来多睡点懒觉，或者多看两三集电视剧。
Dāng yī ge rén juédìng zuòfàn , xūyào huāshàngyī ge xiǎoshí mǎi cài , liǎng ge xiǎoshí xǐ cài chǎocài , dànshì chīwán zhè yī dùn fàn zhǐyào shí fēnzhōng , lìngwài hái xūyào huāshàng bàn ge xiǎoshí zhěnglǐ chúfáng . Er2 zhè sān ge bànxiǎoshí de shíjiān , qíshí kěyǐ yònglái duō shuì diǎn lǎnjiào , huòzhě duō kàn liǎng sān jí diànshìjù .
每天下班乘坐完漫长的地铁回到家，身体只剩下百分之七的电，哪还有电量再去买菜、做饭、洗碗？
Měi tiān xiàbān chéngzuò wán màncháng de dìtiě huídào jiā , shēntǐ zhǐ shèngxià bǎifēn zhī qī de diàn , nǎ hái yǒu diànliàng zài qù mǎi cài , zuòfàn , xǐwǎn ?
因为外卖，我们得以节省自己的时间。它替代了我们应该在生活中担任的某些职能。
Yīnwèi wàimài , wǒmen déyǐ jiéshěng zìjǐ de shíjiān . Tā tìdài le wǒmen yīnggāi zài shēnghuó zhōng dānrèn de mǒu xiē zhínéng .
在家的时候应该经常会被长辈们念叨“那么大个人了，不会做饭自己怎么生活？”、“连饭都不会做，以后都没有人肯娶你哟”。
Zài jiā de shíhou yīnggāi jīngcháng huì bèi zhǎngbèi men niàndāo" nàme dà gè rén le , bùhuì zuòfàn zìjǐ zěnme shēnghuó ? " , " Lián fàn dōu bùhuì zuò , yǐhòu dōu méiyǒurén kěn qǔ nǐ yo " .
在上一辈的眼中，每天做饭和吃饭睡觉一样是理所当然的事，一个人不会做饭是无法独立生活的。但是外卖将做饭和吃饭分离开来，使我们不必向长辈请教如何做鱼香肉丝、糖醋排骨，也能吃到自己想吃的菜。
Zài shàng yī bèi de yǎn zhōng , měi tiān zuòfàn hé chīfàn shuìjiào yīyàng shì lǐsuǒdāngrán de shì , yī ge rén bùhuì zuòfàn shì wúfǎ dúlì shēnghuó de . Dànshì wàimài jiāng zuòfàn hé chīfàn fēnlí kāi lái , shǐ wǒmen bù bì xiàng zhǎngbèi qǐngjiào rúhé zuò yúxiāng ròusī , tángcù páigǔ , yě néng chī dào zìjǐ xiǎngchī de cài .
那么，做饭，真的是一件不划算的事吗？
Nàme , zuòfàn , zhēnde shì yī jiàn bù huásuàn de shì ma ?

2.2.30《女儿离开家以后》
After dropping their daughter at her boarding school after 16 years... What are on the parents' mind ? Check out our most recent podcast, which is based on the first episode of the TV show 《少年派》.The dialogue is from 8:04-8:40 in the first episode.
女儿：嘿嘿嘿
nü'er ： hēi hēi hēi
爸爸：慢点，别那么毛毛糙糙的。
bà bà ： màn diǎn ， bié nà me máo máo cāo cāo de 。
保安：送君千里终有一别啊。家长们都回吧啊，回吧
bǎo ān ： sòng jūn qiān lǐ zhōng yǒu yī bié ā 。 jiā zhǎng mén dou huí bā ā ， huí bā
妈妈：16年第一次有一种抓不住孩子的感觉。
mā mā ： 16 nián dì yī cì yǒu yī zhǒng zhuā bù zhù háizi de gǎn jué 。
爸爸：学校是你选的，班是你挑的。我看这学校不错，连这保安说话都文邹邹的。
bà bà ： xué xiào shì nǐ xuǎn de ， bān shì nǐ tiāo de 。 wǒ kàn zhè xué xiào bù cuò ， lián zhè bǎo ān shuō huà dou wén zōu zōu de 。
妈妈：我担心她睡觉不老实，她在家睡的是大床。
mā mā ： wǒ dān xīn tā shuì jiào bù lǎoshi， tā zài jiā shuì de shì dà chuáng 。
爸爸：没问题，架子床没多高，摔下来也摔不坏。

bà bà ： nà dū shì gè lì 。 dà bù fēn hái zǐ huán shì wán qiáng dì cóng jì sù xué xiào huó zhuó chū lái liǎo 。
妈妈：你们男人心真大。
mā mā ： nǐ mén nán rén xīn zhēn dà 。
我感觉我们游到了岸上，而她被我们推到了汹涌的浪潮里。
wǒ gǎn jué wǒ mén yóu dào liǎo àn shàng ， ér tā bèi wǒ mén tuī dào liǎo xiōng yǒng dí làng cháo lǐ 。

In this episode, we chatted about–The Farewell, a great movie that we watched recently. We cried so much when watching it. There are so many scenes that look familiar to us, particularly reminding us of our childhood with our grandparents. We strongly recommend everyone to check it out.

2.2.29《她来听我的演唱会》
With more than 25 million records sold as of 2003, Jacky Cheung is regarded as one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" and has been deemed the "God of Songs" of Hong Kong.
她来听我的演唱会
词:梁文福
曲:黄明洲
她来听我的演唱会
在十七岁的初恋第一次约会
男孩为了她彻夜排队
半年的积蓄买了门票一对
我唱得她心醉 我唱得她心碎
三年的感情一封信就要收回
她记得月台汽笛声声在催
播我的歌陪着人们流泪
嘿 陪人们流泪
她来听我的演唱会
在二十五岁恋爱是风光明媚
男朋友背着她送人玫瑰
她不听电话夜夜听歌不睡
我唱得她心醉 我唱得她心碎
成年人分手后都像无所谓
和朋友一起买醉卡拉ok
唱我的歌 陪着画面流泪
嘿陪着流眼泪
我唱得她心醉 我唱得她心碎
在三十三岁真爱那么珍贵
年轻的女孩求她让一让位
让男人决定跟谁远走高飞
嘿谁在远走高飞
我唱得她心醉我唱得她心碎
她努力不让自己看来很累
岁月在听我们唱无怨无悔
在掌声里唱到自己流泪
嘿唱到自己流泪
她来听我的演唱会
在四十岁后听歌的女人很美
小孩在问她为什么流泪
身边的男人早已渐渐入睡
她静静听着我们的演唱会

1.3.31《你会买今年的新iPhone么》
Are you gonna buy iPhone 11 ?
#新iPhone于9月13日开始接受预订#外媒援引自一位苹果供应商人士的消息显示，苹果新款iPhone 11系列产品将于9月13日星期五开始接受预订，并在一周后的9月20日陆陆续续开始向预定客户发货。那么，你会买今年的新iPhone么？
我觉得不好看，不买，其实是太穷了，买不起
这就是大家期待已久的iPhone 11，大家觉得如何？感觉肾保住了！
这个摄像头的设计真的不好看耶，像极了浴霸，设计者是不是在洗澡的时候出现的灵感啊
用个耐用的苹果手机四五年不好吗，我的6s到现在依然坚挺,喷什么喷，这性价比算得来吧？您要是一年换一部安卓机当我没说。
我嫌它丑它嫌我穷
当初苹果6出来也被说丑，包括我，还不是大把人卖肾各种法子买，其实手机就跟人一样，中看的不中用，中用的不中看，好用才是最实在，果粉五年，再换手机还是苹果。真心觉得便宜的东西除了买的时候开心，其他时候都不开心，贵的东西一定有它的道理
iphonex刚出来的时候我说它有一点点丑 但还好
这个新iphone是真的丑的惨绝人寰
我的6s p还可以再战几年
—甜不想吃
我的小6，要加油哇💪
我们还可以再坚持坚持的
毕竟电池刚换完
—小丸子壹贰叁

2.1.28 AB《我是一只小小小鸟》

3.3.8B《中国的留守儿童》
"There is, of course, a now accepted view in the West that deprivation and childhood neglect can increase the likelihood of anti-social and criminal behaviour later in life. But what strikes me when talking to the children we meet in Sichuan and Guizhou is not anger or resentment." __John Sudworth

China had 61 million left-behind children...that's almost Britan's total population.
中国用短短二三十年时间完成了其他国家耗时近一个世纪才能完成的工业化过程。和这场工业革命的速度同样惊人的是它的规模。在工业革命开始的时候，英国人口仅有1000万左右。中国今天的人口是当时英国的100倍以上。

2013年之前的5年时间里，中国建筑工地上消耗的水泥以及银行发放的贷款相当于美国20世纪的总和。经济的迅猛增长往往伴随着社会问题，这些社会问题的严重程度可能连创作了《雾都孤儿》的小说家查尔斯·狄更斯都难以想象。要观察这些社会问题和社会代价的最佳角度，无疑是中国的“留守儿童”。

唐宇文的父母在成都的一家制衣厂工作。如同一个世纪前的英国曼彻斯特一样，他们被工业革命的力量拽出了自己家庭所在的乡村。

最新的统计称，在中国，有6000万名儿童像唐宇文一样生活在农村的留守家庭里，他们的父母在异地工作和生活，操作着建筑工地上的机械设备，支撑着中国的经济奇迹。这个数量相当于1/5的中国儿童。近年来，中国的官媒开始被允许探讨这种现象所带来的恶劣后果。据《中国日报》报道，2015年6月，一个中国留守家庭里的4名儿童死于误用杀虫剂，最小的仅5岁。报道说，这并非孤例。

唐宇文和祖母一起生活在中国四川省的思贤乡，家里还有其他三个兄弟姐妹。他们挤在学校附近的一间公寓房内，生活窘迫，需要和邻居共用卫生间，在房间里的一个金属盆里洗澡。四个小孩都是留守儿童。在过去的几十年里，数以百万计的中国工人正是从这样的四川遥远乡村来到城市，他们的经历大致相同。在思贤乡小学，差不多80%的小孩和父母分离。

现代化的中国建立在这些农民工离乡务工的基础上，他们的子女同样付出了沉重的代价。但在唐宇文的采访中，这种代价却显得十分平常。
Xiàndàihuà de zhōngguó jiànlì zài zhèxiē nóngmín gōng líxiāngwùgōng de jīchǔ shàng, tāmen de zǐnǚ tóngyàng fùchūle chénzhòng de dàijià. Dàn zài Táng Yǔwén de cǎifǎng zhōng, zhè zhǒng dàijià què xiǎndé shífēn píngcháng.
“我知道爸爸妈妈挣钱不容易。”他告诉我，“但我非常想他们，这很痛苦。”
“Wǒ zhīdào bàba māmā zhèng qián bù róngyì.” Tā gàosù wǒ,“dàn wǒ fēicháng xiǎng tāmen, zhè hěn tòngkǔ.”
在贵州省，距离误用杀虫剂事件发生地不远的地方，我们采访了独自生活的两姐弟，14岁的陶篮和11岁的陶进坤。凉风从窗户的缝隙漏进家里的两个房间，陶篮正在辅导弟弟做作业。她在一片很小的自留地里种菜，还要自己做饭。两个孩子轮流洗碗。他们的父母在一千英里以外的城市工作，每年只回家一次。
Zài guìzhōu shěng, jùlí wùyòng shāchóngjì shìjiàn fāshēng dì bù yuǎn de dìfāng, wǒmen cǎifǎngle dúzì shēnghuó de liǎng jiě dì,14 suì de Táo Lán hé 11 suì de Táo Jìnkūn.

Liǎng gè háizi lúnliú xǐwǎn. Tāmen de fùmǔ zài yīqiān yīnglǐ yǐwài de chéngshì gōngzuò, měinián zhǐ huíjiā yīcì.
“如果在学校遇到不高兴的事 又不能回家告诉爸爸妈妈，这种情况非常糟糕吧。”我问陶篮。
“我不能告诉他们。”她一边回答一边擦眼泪，“爸爸妈妈生活很辛苦，我不想让他们为我担心。”
“Rúguǒ zài xuéxiào yù dào bù gāoxìng de shì yòu bùnéng huí jiā gàosù bàba māma, zhè zhǒng qíngkuàng fēicháng zāogāo ba.” Wǒ wèn Táo Lán.
“Wǒ bùnéng gàosù tāmen.” Tā yībiān huídá yībiān cā yǎnlèi,“bàba māmā shēnghuó hěn xīnkǔ, wǒ bùxiǎng ràng tāmen wèi wǒ dānxīn.”
在西方国家，毫无疑问，童年缺乏关爱有可能导致长大后出现反社会的倾向和犯罪行为已经广为人知。
Zài xīfāng guójiā, háo wú yíwèn, tóngnián quēfá guān'ài yǒu kěnéng dǎozhì zhǎng dà hòu chūxiàn fǎn shèhuì de qīngxiàng hé fànzuì xíngwéi yǐjīng guǎngwéirénzhī.
但让我吃惊的是，在四川和贵州的采访中，我看到的不是愤怒或者不满。
Dàn ràng wǒ chījīng de shì, zài sìchuān hé guìzhōu de cǎifǎng zhōng, wǒ kàn dào de bùshì fènnù huòzhě bùmǎn.
我看到的是在父母面对经济压力不得不做出离家的困难选择时，这些孩子表现出的惊人的成熟。
Wǒ kàn dào de shì zài fùmǔ miànduì jīngjì yālì bùdébù zuò chū líjiā de kùnnán xuǎnzé shí, zhèxiē háizi biǎoxiàn chū de jīngrén de chéngshú.
但即便如此，不是所有的孩子都能隐藏自己的情感。唐宇文9岁的同学詹嘉悦，就在采访中流露出明显的焦虑。
Dàn jíbiàn rúcǐ, bùshì suǒyǒu de háizi dōu néng yǐncáng zìjǐ de qínggǎn. Táng yǔwén 9 suì de tóngxué zhān jiāyuè, jiù zài cǎifǎng zhōngliúlù chū míngxiǎn de jiāolǜ.

3.3.7A《李荣浩》
A breakout star in Chinese pop music, Li Ronghao is one of the most exciting newcomers in the industry.
出道五年，发行五张专辑。李荣浩在乐坛的炙手可热，从他一加入《中国新说唱》就引发抢人大战可见一斑。但即使成名，他身上却找不到任何的骄傲与自满。他的人，就像他的歌那样，始终保持在自己的节奏上，没有一点世俗的杂音。
Chūdàowǔ nián , fāxíng wǔ zhāng zhuānjí . lǐrónghào zài lè tán de zhì shǒu kě rè , cóng tā yī jiārù《Zhōngguó xīn shuōchàng 》 jiù yǐnfā qiǎng réndà zhàn kějiànyībān . Dàn jíshǐ chéngmíng, tā shēn shàng què zhǎo bù dào rènhé de jiāoào yǔ zìmǎn. Tā de rén , jiù xiàng tā de gē nàyàng , shǐzhōng bǎochí zài zìjǐ de jiézòu shàng , méiyǒu yīdiǎn shìsú de záyīn .
你说你知道自己九岁时的梦想是什么吗？李荣浩自问自答，我不知道。“我只知道当时的自己是个傻子，我喜欢打电动，就要天天玩电动。我喜欢弹吉他，就要天天弹吉他。有时候你喜欢一个东西，是没有任何理由的，总之老天爷就让你作这件事。”
Nǐ shuō nǐ zhīdào zìjǐ jiǔ suì shí de mèngxiǎng shì shénme ma ? lǐrónghào zì wèn zì dá , wǒ bù zhīdào. "Wǒ zhǐ zhīdào dāngshí de zìjǐ shì ge shǎzi , wǒ xǐhuān dǎ diàndòng , jiù yào tiāntiān wán diàndòng . Wǒ xǐhuān tán jíta , jiù yào tiāntiān tán jíta . Yǒu shíhou nǐ xǐhuān yī ge dōngxi , shì méiyǒu rènhé lǐyóu de , zǒngzhī lǎotiānyě jiù ràng nǐ zuò zhè jiàn shì . "
但玩音乐在传统的父母眼里，是不能谋生的，是叛逆的。李荣浩回忆，因此从小就遭到父母的激烈反对，就是不让他学音乐。可倔强如他，也不低头妥协，索性用行动抗争到底。由于不爱念书，他干脆从初中二年级就辍学不上课，开始自己摸索，自学吉他。“所以家里的气氛一直很差，但我这个人偏偏不怕尴尬，要尴就尴下去吧。那时候我每天早上起床的第一件事，就是把泡面啊吃的啊放到自己的房间里，然后把房门锁上，大部分的时间都待在自己的房间里练琴。反正他们(爸妈)要出去工作，也没办法不走。”
Dàn wán yīnyuè zài chuántǒng de fùmǔ yǎn lǐ , shì bù néng móushēngde , shì pànnì de . lǐrónghào huíyì , yīncǐ cóng xiǎo jiù zāodào fùmǔ de jīliè fǎnduì , jiùshì bù ràng tā xué yīnyuè . Kě juéjiàng rú tā , yě bù dītóutuǒxié , suǒxìng yòng xíngdòng kàngzhēng dàodǐ . Yóuyú bù ài niànshū, tā gāncuì cóng chūzhōng èr niánjí jiù chuòxué bù shàngkè , kāishǐ zìjǐ mōsuo , zìxué jíta. “suǒyǐ jiālǐ de qìfēn yīzhí hěn chā , dàn wǒ zhè ge rén piānpiān bùpà gāngà , yào gān jiù gān xiàqù ba . Nà shíhou wǒ měi tiān zǎoshang qǐchuáng de dì yī jiàn shì , jiùshì bǎ pāomiàn a chīde a fàngdào zìjǐ de fángjiān lǐ , ránhòu bǎ fángmén suǒ shàng , dàbùfēn de shíjiān dōu dāizàizìjǐ de fángjiān lǐ liàn qín . Fǎnzhèng tāmen (bàmā)yào chūqù gōngzuò, yě méi bànfǎ bù zǒu.”
因为吉他是自学的，没有老师教，李荣浩到现在都还不认识谱。「我就是自己听，听这个音在哪里，然后自己摸索、自己弹。比如听到一首歌的solo，就翻来覆去听那个词，半秒半秒持续地听，一直练一直练，直到找到那个音为止。因此现在就练到，耳朵听了就知道音在哪。」正所谓，不疯狂不成魔。要执着，就执着到最极致的境界。后来的李荣浩，16、17岁把自己练成一个专业的老师，他靠教琴赚钱，不仅教过一百多个学生，还出过三本吉他教材，在全国各地卖。
Yīnwèi jíta shì zìxué de, méiyǒu lǎoshī jiāo , lǐrónghào dào xiànzài dōu hái bù rènshi pǔ . 「Wǒ jiùshì zìjǐ tīng , tīng zhège yīn zài nǎlǐ , ránhòu zìjǐ mōsuo , zìjǐ tán .

往后的人生际遇，就不用多做解释了。二十岁的李荣浩北漂到北京玩音乐，凭着自学的音乐天分在幕后闯出成绩。但他笑说，其实那段时间他做幕后挺有钱的，父母却还是不放心。甚至在他拿到金曲奖最佳新人之后，李妈妈还是要他去找一份稳定的工作。是直到近几年，爸爸去世之后，他带着妈妈在北京生活，并且用音乐赚的钱还了家里的债务，才让妈妈停止唠叨。

高考又到了。而距离我的高考，11年已经过去了。
直到许多年以后，回头看身后的脚印，才明白当年那场考试，宛若旋转门一般，有人向左，有人向右。我们与儿时伙伴们的命运车轮悄悄转向，并随着时间的推移，越走越远。
那个时候，夏天6点半上早自习，冬天好像是7点吧，上半个小时左右，去吃早餐。然后上午4节课，下午3节课，晚上还要晚自习到9点。周日上午也要上自习，不是这个老师来占课，就是那个老师来占课。
按照往年的惯例，一般寒假高三学生是要补课的，一直要补到小年才可以回家。不过我们那年比较特殊，遇上了百年不遇的冰灾。到后来，路面冻住了，水管冰住了，电停了，车停了，电话线也断了，老师们根本无法来学校。
于是我们早早就停课了，能回家的回家，不能回家的待在学校，冻得要死。每天只能窝在被窝里，也没法洗漱。食堂不知道哪里搞来的水，每天做点饭给我们少数无法回家的人吃。
我和两个同学的村子是挨着的，所以回家都是一条线路。在学校困了几天后，没看到解冻的迹象，于是我们三个人做了一个决定，走路回家。
我们平常都是坐车，先坐到县城车站，要1个小时。然后坐公交到学校，大概也要20分钟吧。那个时候没有智能手机，究竟要走多久，我们压根没谱，反正就是要回家。
我们买了点吃的，然后就启程了。天灰蒙蒙的，下着毛毛雨，而且雨落到伞上不久就会结冰。路面都冰封了，所以差不多是一步三摇。开始的时候，我们还会聊聊天，后来完全不说话了，只是不停地走，没有人知道还要走多远。
我们走了差不多6个小时，终于看到了熟悉的村子，然后其中一个人理了理自己的头发，她说，不希望奶奶看到她可怜的样子。我们的父母都外出工作了，所以我们都是跟爷爷奶奶过。
多年以后，我用手机查了一下，我们走了22.4公里。

Wǒ hé liǎng ge tóngxué de cūnzi shì ái zhe de , suǒyǐ huíjiā de shì yī tiáo xiànlù . Zài xuéxiào kūnle jǐ tiān hòu , méi kàn dào jiědòng de jīxiàng , yúshì wǒmen sān gèrén zuòle yīge juédìng , zǒulùhuíjiā .
我们平常都是坐车，先坐到县城车站，要1个小时。然后坐公交到学校，大概也要20分钟吧。那个时候没有智能手机，究竟要走多久，我们压根没谱，反正就是要回家。
Wǒmen píngcháng dōu shì zuòchē , xiān zuò dào xiànchéng chēzhàn , yào yī ge xiǎoshí . Ránhòu zuò gōngjiāo dào xuéxiào , dàgài yě yào èrshí fēnzhōng ba . Nàge shíhou méiyǒu zhīnéng shǒujī , jiūjìng yào zǒu duōjiǔ , wǒmen yāgēnméi pǔ , fǎnzhèng jiùshì yào huíjiā
我们买了点吃的，然后就启程了。天灰蒙蒙的，下着毛毛雨，而且雨落到伞上不久就会结冰。路面都冰封了，所以差不多是一步三摇。开始的时候，我们还会聊聊天，后来完全不说话了，只是不停地走，没有人知道还要走多远。
Wǒmen mǎi le diǎn chīde, ránhòu jiù qǐchéng le . Tiān huī mēng mēng de , xiàzhe máomáoyǔ , érqiě yǔ luòdào sǎn shàng bù jiǔ jiù huì jiébīng .

我们走了差不多6个小时，终于看到了熟悉的村子，然后其中一个人理了理自己的头发，她说，不希望奶奶看到她可怜的样子。我们的父母都外出工作了，所以我们都是跟爷爷奶奶过。
Wǒmen zǒu le chàbuduō liù ge xiǎoshí , zhōngyú kàn dào le shúxī de cūnzi , ránhòu qí zhōng yī ge rén lǐ le lǐ zìjǐ de tóufa , tā shuō , bù xīwàng nǎinai kàn dào tā kělián de yàngzi . Wǒmen de fùmǔ dōu wàichū gōngzuò le , suǒyǐ wǒmen dōu shì gēn yéye nǎinai guò .
多年以后，我用手机查了一下，我们走了22.4公里。

3.1.5A《生活是一场妥协》
China's young people are fed up with the "rule of 996". But for Lin Rui and Li Pan, it's the compromise they have to make.
毕业这两年，林睿常常被同学、朋友调侃称为“加班狗”，但他自己并不喜欢这样一个称呼，因为带个“狗”字，多少让他觉得没尊严。

小时候，母亲总是告诉我，“你应该成功。将来有一天，你一定会成功。”
小时候渴望长大。去幼儿园没多久我就腻了。我跑回家，跟家里人说：“我不上幼儿园了行不行，我要上小学。”
母亲问我：“怎么了，幼儿园里不好么？”“太无聊了，整天都是唱歌吃东西，老师教的东西也太简单了。”
“你才五岁，再读一年幼儿园就可以读小学了。”
大部分的父母可能都会认为孩子胡闹，但是母亲处理的方法与众不同。
“下个月私立小学有入学考试。如果你的能力不够，你就没法通过入学考试；可如果你通过了考试，就表明你有能力，那就让你去读小学。”
于是我就请母亲帮我报名，然后努力学习，努力准备。
发榜那天，母亲陪我去学校，一下子就看到“李开复”三个字在第一名的位置闪亮。母亲激动地像个孩子一样地叫起来：“哎呀，第一个就是李开复，你考上了！”
我也激动地跳起来，抱住母亲哇哇大叫。
那一刻，母亲脸上无法掩饰的兴奋和自豪即便是过了几十年我也不会忘记。从母亲的表情中我才知道，自己一丁点的小成功可以让母亲那么的骄傲。同时，这件事也让我懂得，只要大胆尝试，积极进取，就有机会得到我期望中的成功。感谢母亲给了我机会，去实现我人生中的第一次尝试和跨越。
在中国，父母对孩子的关爱特别深，生怕孩子受一点伤害，不愿让孩子冒险尝试与众不同的东西。其实孩子从小就需要独立性、责任心、选择能力和判断力。很庆幸的是，在我五岁的时候，我父母就把选择权交给了我，让我成为了自己的主人。

The Gift My Mother Gave Me by Kai-Fu Lee, one of the most prominent figures in the Chinese internet sector...

“每天被闹钟振醒的时候、在路上挤公交的时候，脑子里会闪现出100遍辞职的念头。”29岁的吴梦颖这样形容自己上班时的心情。
" měi tiān bèi nàozhōng zhèn xǐng de shíhou , zài lùshang jǐ gōngjiāode shíhou , nǎozi lǐ huì shǎn xiànchū yībǎi biàn cízhí de niàntou . " èrshíjiǔ Wú Mèngyǐng zhèyàng xíngróng zìjǐ shàngbān shí de xīnqíng
4年前，她进入北京的一家私企做财务工作。第一次面试时，就被老板告知，公司规定每周工作6天，所有部门周六都要在岗。如果不能接受，免谈。
Sì nián qián , tā jìnrù Běijīng de yījiāsīqǐzuò cáiwù gōngzuò . Dì yī cì miànshì shí , jiù bèi lǎobǎn gàozhī, gōngsī guīdìng měizhōu gōngzuò liù tiān , suǒyǒu bùmén Zhōuliù dōu yào zài gǎng . Rúguǒ bù néng jiēshòu , miǎn tán .
虽然不合理，但当时不是名校毕业又没有足够财务经验的吴梦颖，还是接受了这个“霸王条款”。对于已经找了小半年工作的她来说，有份能养活自己的工作要比过周末来得更迫切。
Suīrán bù hélǐ , dàn dāngshí bù shì míngxiào bìyè yòu méiyǒu zúgòu cáiwù jīngyàn de Wú Mèngyǐng , hái shì jiēshòu le zhège " bàwáng tiáokuǎn " . Duìyú yǐjīng zhǎo le xiǎo bàn nián gōngzuò de tā láishuō , yǒu fèn néng yǎnghuo zìjǐ de gōngzuò yào bǐguò zhōumò láiděigèng pòqiè .
从那时起，她就过上了“单休”的生活。每个周六，当别的女孩挽着男朋友逛街时，她要对着电脑做账，以及完成领导交代的各项繁杂工作。
Cōngnàshí qǐ , tā jiù guò shàng le " Shàn Xiū” de shēnghuó . Měige Zhōuliù , dāng biéde nǚhái wǎn zháo nánpéngyou guàngjiē shí , tā yào duìzhe diànnǎo zuò zhàng , yǐjí wánchéng lǐngdǎo jiāodài de gèxiàng fánzá gōngzuò .
“单休就等于没有周末，周日的时间大多数用来处理一些生活琐事。紧接着就是新一周的循环，几乎很难有休闲娱乐的时间。”
" Dān Xiū jiù děngyú méiyǒu zhōumò , Zhōurì de shíjiān dàduōshù yònglái chǔlǐ yī xiē shēnghuó suǒshì . jǐn jiēzhe jiùshì xīn yīzhōude xúnhuán , jīhū hěn nán yǒu xiūxián yúlè de shíjiān . "
虽然每天都会闪现辞职的念头，但吴梦颖还没有一次真正提出过，甚至没有把对加班的不满表现出来，因为那可能意味着她会失去这份工作，她没有勇气对加班说不。
Suīrán měi tiān dōuhuì shǎn xiàn cízhí de niàntou , dàn Wú Mèngyǐng hái méiyǒu yī cì zhēnzhèng tíchū guò , shènzhì méiyǒu bǎ duì jiābān de bùmǎn biǎoxiàn chū lái , yīnwèi nà kěnéng yìwèizhe tā huì shīqù zhè fèn gōngzuò , tā méiyǒuyǒngqì duì jiābān shuō bù .
“找一个同样收入又心仪的工作并不容易，裸辞可能就意味着失业，那种焦虑和不安比起加班更让人受不了。现在，双休日和工作我只能选一样。”
" zhǎo yī ge tóngyàng shōurù yòu xīn yí de gōngzuò bìngbùróngyì , luǒ cí kě néng jiù yìwèizhe shīyè , nà zhǒng jiāolǜ hé bùān bǐqǐ jiābān gèng ràng rén shòubuliǎo . Xiànzài , shuāng xiū Rì hé gōngzuò Wǒ zhǐ néng xuǎn yīyàng . "

996 is a policy widespread among Chinese companies that makes employees work from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week.
"To be able to work 996 is a huge bliss", said Jack Ma, China's richest man. What is your thoughts ?

" měi tiān bèi nàozhōng zhèn xǐng de shíhou , zài lùshang jǐ gōngjiāode shíhou , nǎozi lǐ huì shǎn xiànchū yībǎi biàn cízhí de niàntou . " èrshíjiǔ Wú Mèngyǐng zhèyàng xíngróng zìjǐ shàngbān shí de xīnqíng
4年前，她进入北京的一家私企做财务工作。第一次面试时，就被老板告知，公司规定每周工作6天，所有部门周六都要在岗。如果不能接受，免谈。
Sì nián qián , tā jìnrù Běijīng de yījiāsīqǐzuò cáiwù gōngzuò . Dì yī cì miànshì shí , jiù bèi lǎobǎn gàozhī, gōngsī guīdìng měizhōu gōngzuò liù tiān , suǒyǒu bùmén Zhōuliù dōu yào zài gǎng . Rúguǒ bù néng jiēshòu , miǎn tán .
虽然不合理，但当时不是名校毕业又没有足够财务经验的吴梦颖，还是接受了这个“霸王条款”。对于已经找了小半年工作的她来说，有份能养活自己的工作要比过周末来得更迫切。
Suīrán bù hélǐ , dàn dāngshí bù shì míngxiào bìyè yòu méiyǒu zúgòu cáiwù jīngyàn de Wú Mèngyǐng , hái shì jiēshòu le zhège " bàwáng tiáokuǎn " . Duìyú yǐjīng zhǎo le xiǎo bàn nián gōngzuò de tā láishuō , yǒu fèn néng yǎnghuo zìjǐ de gōngzuò yào bǐguò zhōumò láiděigèng pòqiè .
从那时起，她就过上了“单休”的生活。每个周六，当别的女孩挽着男朋友逛街时，她要对着电脑做账，以及完成领导交代的各项繁杂工作。
Cōngnàshí qǐ , tā jiù guò shàng le " Shàn Xiū” de shēnghuó . Měige Zhōuliù , dāng biéde nǚhái wǎn zháo nánpéngyou guàngjiē shí , tā yào duìzhe diànnǎo zuò zhàng , yǐjí wánchéng lǐngdǎo jiāodài de gèxiàng fánzá gōngzuò .
“单休就等于没有周末，周日的时间大多数用来处理一些生活琐事。紧接着就是新一周的循环，几乎很难有休闲娱乐的时间。”
" Dān Xiū jiù děngyú méiyǒu zhōumò , Zhōurì de shíjiān dàduōshù yònglái chǔlǐ yī xiē shēnghuó suǒshì . jǐn jiēzhe jiùshì xīn yīzhōude xúnhuán , jīhū hěn nán yǒu xiūxián yúlè de shíjiān . "
虽然每天都会闪现辞职的念头，但吴梦颖还没有一次真正提出过，甚至没有把对加班的不满表现出来，因为那可能意味着她会失去这份工作，她没有勇气对加班说不。
Suīrán měi tiān dōuhuì shǎn xiàn cízhí de niàntou , dàn Wú Mèngyǐng hái méiyǒu yī cì zhēnzhèng tíchū guò , shènzhì méiyǒu bǎ duì jiābān de bùmǎn biǎoxiàn chū lái , yīnwèi nà kěnéng yìwèizhe tā huì shīqù zhè fèn gōngzuò , tā méiyǒuyǒngqì duì jiābān shuō bù .
“找一个同样收入又心仪的工作并不容易，裸辞可能就意味着失业，那种焦虑和不安比起加班更让人受不了。现在，双休日和工作我只能选一样。”
" zhǎo yī ge tóngyàng shōurù yòu xīn yí de gōngzuò bìngbùróngyì , luǒ cí kě néng jiù yìwèizhe shīyè , nà zhǒng jiāolǜ hé bùān bǐqǐ jiābān gèng ràng rén shòubuliǎo . Xiànzài , shuāng xiū Rì hé gōngzuò Wǒ zhǐ néng xuǎn yīyàng . "

传说，有一条白蛇修炼了一千年，终于修成人形，化为美丽端庄的白娘子，另一条青蛇修炼了五百年，也化为富有青春活力的小青姑娘。她们二人结伴来到西湖游玩，当她们来到断桥时，白娘子在人群中看见一位清秀的白面书生，心中暗生情意。小青便悄悄地作法，降下大雨。白面书生许仙打着伞来到湖边乘船，正好看见白娘子和小青被大雨淋得很狼狈，许仙忙把自己的伞递过去让她们避雨，自己却躲得很远，任凭雨淋。白娘子看见许仙这样老实腼腆，心里更喜欢了，许仙也对美丽的白娘子产生了爱慕之情。在小青的撮合下，许仙和白娘子成了亲，并且在西湖边上开了一家药店，治病救人，乡亲们都很喜欢他们。
但是金山寺的法海法师却认为白娘子是妖精，会祸害民间。他悄悄地告诉许仙，白娘子是白蛇化身而成，还教许仙怎样识别白蛇。许仙将信将疑。转眼端午节到了，老百姓都喝雄黄酒避邪，许仙按照法海教的办法，逼迫白娘子喝雄黄酒。白娘子这时候已经怀孕，她推却不了许仙，喝了酒后，马上现出蛇的原形，许仙立刻被吓死了。白娘子为了救活许仙，不顾自己怀孕，千里迢迢来到昆仑圣山偷盗起死回生的灵芝草。白娘子与守护灵芝草的护卫拼命恶战，护卫被白娘子感动了，将灵芝赠送给她。许仙被救活以后，知道白娘子真心爱自己，夫妻更加恩爱。
可是法海还是容不下白蛇在人间生活。他将许仙骗进金山寺，强迫他出家为僧。白娘子和小青非常愤怒，率领水族士兵攻打金山寺，想救出许仙。她们不断作法，引发洪水，金山寺被洪水包围，这就是传说中很有名的“水漫金山”。法海也大显法力，白娘子因为临产，打不过法海，只得在小青的保护下逃跑。当她们逃到断桥时，正遇上从金山寺逃出来的许仙。许仙与白娘子二人经过劫难，又在初逢的断桥相见，百感交集，不由得抱头痛哭。白娘子刚生下儿子，法海就赶来了，他无情地将白娘子镇压在西湖边的雷峰塔下，诅咒说，除非西湖水干，雷峰塔倒掉，否则白娘子永远也不能再回到人间。
多年后，小青修炼得道，重回西湖，她打败了法海，将西湖水吸干，将雷峰塔掀倒，终于救出了白娘子。

可是法海还是容不下白蛇在人间生活。他将许仙骗进金山寺，强迫他出家为僧。白娘子和小青非常愤怒，率领水族士兵攻打金山寺，想救出许仙。她们不断作法，引发洪水，金山寺被洪水包围，这就是传说中很有名的“水漫金山”。法海也大显法力，白娘子因为临产，打不过法海，只得在小青的保护下逃跑。当她们逃到断桥时，正遇上从金山寺逃出来的许仙。许仙与白娘子二人经过劫难，又在初逢的断桥相见，百感交集，不由得抱头痛哭。白娘子刚生下儿子，法海就赶来了，他无情地将白娘子镇压在西湖边的雷峰塔下，诅咒说，除非西湖水干，雷峰塔倒掉，否则白娘子永远也不能再回到人间。

"I found him lovely because he's classical. That's his upbringing — classical music, classical tradition, being isolated in Rochester. His parents are like me, and they insist on their idealized Chinese way, their traditional way," says Ang Lee.

1994年暑假的一个早晨，王力宏背上了简单的行李，一步一回头的离开了温暖的家，在飞机上他忍不住落泪了。到了台北，王力宏往家里打了个电话，他听见妈妈哽咽的声音。就在那一刻，王力宏想还是回去算了，结束这场叛逆的旅行，不要让妈妈伤心。谁知道电话那边的妈妈对他说：“你一向很乖的，我知道，你一定是为了实现你的音乐梦想，才偷偷跑到台湾去的。我已经拜托了你的表叔李建复了，他在台北做音乐，你要好好听他的话！”
王力宏心里乐开了花。妈妈还是没有责怪他的叛逆举动。王力宏很快联系上了表叔李建复，出了第一张专辑。李建复是当年大名鼎鼎的首唱《龙的传人》的歌手，他十分喜欢自己这个为了音乐梦想离家出走的外甥，把他引荐给台湾著名音乐人李寿全。
但王力宏的父亲无法原谅儿子的举动，他断了儿子的经济供给。王力宏带到台湾的钱也很快用完了，他很长时间都靠吃方便面“混”日子，人变得非常清瘦。
暑假过完了，王力宏如愿以偿收到了大学通知单，他回到美国，在威廉姆斯学院音乐系学习音乐，又进入伯克利音乐学院研究所学习。
王力宏用自己出唱片挣来的钱交了学费，生活基本可以自足，父亲的经济制裁没有威胁到他。但他还是非常想念自己的家人，虽然大家在爸爸的“禁令”下不敢理他，但是他一有空还是忍不住往家里跑，希望能与家人和解。最后，在母亲的劝说下，父亲逐渐原谅了儿子。一家人重新恢复了和睦。然而父亲对王力宏搞音乐还有个条件，一定不能荒废学业，而且，要拿到学位。王力宏自信地说：“没有问题！”
王力宏的中文远远没有英文好，这是在美国第二代华人的普遍现象。投身演艺圈后，王力宏往返于台湾与纽约之间，有的时候还要到国内许多城市开演唱会，由于中文不够好，他闹了很多笑话。
一步一脚印，王力宏最终实现了他当个成功歌影视三栖艺人的美梦。他写的歌曲，风靡了整个亚洲的华人歌坛，在中国，《王力宏》三个字，就是家喻户晓的名字。他谱写唱红的代表作多不胜数。 《你不知道的事》、《柴米油盐酱醋茶》、《大城小爱》、《心中的日月》、《改变自己》、《落叶归根》、《Julia》、《心跳》、《十八般武艺》......
因为坚持，才有了今天的王力宏。

家人如此强烈的反对让王力宏烦躁不安。晚上，王力宏把自己锁在房间里，胡乱地翻看电视，这时一档音乐节目吸引了他，电视里面正在放庾澄庆和林志炫的歌。王力宏被两个台湾歌手给震惊了，他觉得自己的喉咙在发痒，他不能失去这个机会。

王力宏没有再提去台湾唱歌的事，家人都以为他回心转意了。大家没有想到，17岁的他还另有“阴谋”。

一天，妈妈去学校接9岁的小力宏，教他小提琴的老师对他妈妈说，你的儿子对音乐的感觉和表现力很强，他应该放弃其他的活动，每天保证四个小时的练琴时间，坚持下去，他有可能成为一位优秀的提琴家。

妈妈点点头，没有回答老师。她想起从前学提琴的朋友，从小不敢打网球，不敢滑雪，童年不能参加体育活动，只是因为害怕手会受伤-------妈妈觉得孩子快乐比做音乐神童要好。可是才9岁的王力宏对妈妈说：“妈妈，我最喜欢的还是音乐，我还是想把更多时间放在音乐上！”妈妈大吃一惊，她觉得这句话好像是从儿子心底说出来的。既然儿子天生就与音乐有不解之缘，做妈妈的更应该尊重儿子的选择。

2.2.26B《渔夫和金鱼》
A fisherman catches a "Golden Fish" which promises to fulfill any wish of his in exchange for its freedom.
海边的破木屋里，住着一对老夫妻。老头每天去海边打鱼，老太婆在家里洗衣服。
Hǎibiān de pò mù wū lǐ , zhùzhe yī duì Lǎo fūqī . Lǎotóu měi tiān qù hǎibiān dǎyú, lǎotàipó zài jiālǐ xǐ yīfu
一天，老渔夫在海边忙活了一天，才打上来一条小金鱼，老渔夫很失望。没想到小金鱼开口说话了：“老公公，求求您，把我放回海里去吧。”
yītiān, lǎo yúfū zài hǎibiān máng huó le yītiān, cái dǎ shànglái yī tiáo xiǎo jīnyú , lǎo yúfū hěn shīwàng . Méi xiǎngdào xiǎo jīnyú kāikǒu shuōhuà le : " lǎogōng gōng , qiúqiúnín , bǎ Wǒ fàng huí hǎilǐ qù ba . "老渔夫想：“这么神奇的小金鱼，怎能忍心放到锅里去煮呢？” 就把小金鱼放回海里去了。小金鱼浮出水面，对老渔夫说：“谢谢您，如果您有什么要求，就对我说吧！”
lǎo yúfū xiǎng : " zhème shénqí de xiǎo jīnyú , zěnnéngrěnxīn fàngdào guō lǐ qù zhǔne ? " jiù bǎ xiǎo jīnyú fàng huí hǎilǐ qùle . xiǎo jīnyú fúchūshuǐmiàn , duì Lǎo yúfū shuō : " xièxie nín , rúguǒ nín yǒu shénme yāoqiú , jiù duì Wǒ shuō ba ! "
老渔夫什么也没要，他只想快点回家，把这件怪事讲给老太婆听。老太婆听了，破口大骂：“你这个大傻瓜，咱家的木盆这么破，为什么不要个新的？”老渔夫来到海边，对小金鱼说：“我老婆想要个新木盆。”小金鱼说：“她已经有了新木盆。”

老渔夫回到家里，老太婆指着新木盆愁眉苦脸地说：“你为什么不向它要一座新房子！” 老渔夫又回到海边，对小金鱼说：“我老婆还想要一座新房子。”小金鱼痛快地答应了。老渔夫回到家，发现原来破旧的木屋，已经变成了崭新的房子。
Lǎo yúfū huídào jiālǐ , lǎotàipó zhǐzhe xīn mù pén chóuméikǔliǎn dì shuō : " nǐ wèishénme bù xiàng tā yào yī zuò xīnfáng zǐ !

老太婆又拉长脸对渔夫说：“你再去找小金鱼说，我要一座城堡！”老渔夫来到海边，对小金鱼说：“我老婆想要一座城堡。”小金鱼说：“可以送她一座城堡！”老渔夫走到家时，看见他家的砖房子已经变成了高大的城堡。老太婆穿着华丽的衣服，在仆人的陪伴下，对老渔夫指手划脚。
Lǎotàipó yòu lācháng liǎn duì yúfū shuō : " nǐ zài qù zhǎo xiǎo jīnyú shuō , Wǒ yào yī zuò chéngbǎo ! " lǎo yúfū láidào hǎibiān , duì xiǎo jīnyú shuō : " Wǒ lǎopo xiǎng yào yī zuò chéngbǎo .

Lǎotàipó chuānzhe huá lí de yīfu , zài púrén de péibàn xià , duì Lǎo yúfū zhǐ shǒu huá jiǎo。
没过几天，老渔夫又去海边对小金鱼说：“小金鱼呀，我的老婆要当女王！”小金鱼又答应了。老渔夫回到家里一看，老太婆已经坐在了女王的宝座上。戴着王冠的老太婆命令老渔夫说：“去对小金鱼说，我要当皇帝！”
Méi guò jǐ tiān , lǎo yúfū yòu qù hǎibiān duì xiǎo jīnyú shuō : " xiǎo jīnyú yā , Wǒ de lǎopo yào dāng nǚwáng ! " xiǎo jīnyú yòu dāying le .

老渔夫不敢拒绝老太婆的要求，不得不再去找小金鱼。老渔夫走到了海边，胆怯地对小金鱼说：“我老婆要当皇帝。”
Lǎo yúfū bù gǎn jùjué lǎotàipó de yāoqiú , bùdébù zài qù zhǎo xiǎo jīnyú . Lǎo yúfū zǒu dào le hǎibiān , dǎnqièdi duì xiǎo jīnyú shuō : " Wǒ lǎopo yào dāng huángdì . "
这一次，小金鱼什么也没说，游回了大海深处。老渔夫无精打采地走回家去。这时，华丽的城堡又变成了破旧的木屋。后来，老渔夫仍旧天天打鱼，老太婆还是守着那个破木盆洗衣服。

一天，老渔夫在海边忙活了一天，才打上来一条小金鱼，老渔夫很失望。没想到小金鱼开口说话了：“老公公，求求您，把我放回海里去吧。”
yītiān, lǎo yúfū zài hǎibiān máng huó le yītiān, cái dǎ shànglái yī tiáo xiǎo jīnyú , lǎo yúfū hěn shīwàng . Méi xiǎngdào xiǎo jīnyú kāikǒu shuōhuà le : " lǎogōng gōng , qiúqiúnín , bǎ Wǒ fàng huí hǎilǐ qù ba . "老渔夫想：“这么神奇的小金鱼，怎能忍心放到锅里去煮呢？” 就把小金鱼放回海里去了。小金鱼浮出水面，对老渔夫说：“谢谢您，如果您有什么要求，就对我说吧！”
lǎo yúfū xiǎng : " zhème shénqí de xiǎo jīnyú , zěnnéngrěnxīn fàngdào guō lǐ qù zhǔne ? " jiù bǎ xiǎo jīnyú fàng huí hǎilǐ qùle . xiǎo jīnyú fúchūshuǐmiàn , duì Lǎo yúfū shuō : " xièxie nín , rúguǒ nín yǒu shénme yāoqiú , jiù duì Wǒ shuō ba ! "
老渔夫什么也没要，他只想快点回家，把这件怪事讲给老太婆听。老太婆听了，破口大骂：“你这个大傻瓜，咱家的木盆这么破，为什么不要个新的？”老渔夫来到海边，对小金鱼说：“我老婆想要个新木盆。”小金鱼说：“她已经有了新木盆。”
lǎo yúfū shénme yě méi yào , tā zhǐ xiǎng kuài diǎn huíjiā , bǎ zhè jiàn guàishì jiǎng gěi lǎotàipó tīng .

老渔夫回到家里，老太婆指着新木盆愁眉苦脸地说：“你为什么不向它要一座新房子！” 老渔夫又回到海边，对小金鱼说：“我老婆还想要一座新房子。”小金鱼痛快地答应了。老渔夫回到家，发现原来破旧的木屋，已经变成了崭新的房子。
Lǎo yúfū huídào jiālǐ , lǎotàipó zhǐzhe xīn mù pén chóuméikǔliǎn dì shuō : " nǐ wèishénme bù xiàng tā yào yī zuò xīnfáng zǐ !

老太婆又拉长脸对渔夫说：“你再去找小金鱼说，我要一座城堡！”老渔夫来到海边，对小金鱼说：“我老婆想要一座城堡。”小金鱼说：“可以送她一座城堡！”老渔夫走到家时，看见他家的砖房子已经变成了高大的城堡。老太婆穿着华丽的衣服，在仆人的陪伴下，对老渔夫指手划脚。
Lǎotàipó yòu lācháng liǎn duì yúfū shuō : " nǐ zài qù zhǎo xiǎo jīnyú shuō , Wǒ yào yī zuò chéngbǎo ! " lǎo yúfū láidào hǎibiān , duì xiǎo jīnyú shuō : " Wǒ lǎopo xiǎng yào yī zuò chéngbǎo .

没过几天，老渔夫又去海边对小金鱼说：“小金鱼呀，我的老婆要当女王！”小金鱼又答应了。老渔夫回到家里一看，老太婆已经坐在了女王的宝座上。戴着王冠的老太婆命令老渔夫说：“去对小金鱼说，我要当皇帝！”
Méi guò jǐ tiān , lǎo yúfū yòu qù hǎibiān duì xiǎo jīnyú shuō : " xiǎo jīnyú yā , Wǒ de lǎopo yào dāng nǚwáng ! " xiǎo jīnyú yòu dāying le .

老渔夫不敢拒绝老太婆的要求，不得不再去找小金鱼。老渔夫走到了海边，胆怯地对小金鱼说：“我老婆要当皇帝。”
Lǎo yúfū bù gǎn jùjué lǎotàipó de yāoqiú , bùdébù zài qù zhǎo xiǎo jīnyú . Lǎo yúfū zǒu dào le hǎibiān , dǎnqièdi duì xiǎo jīnyú shuō : " Wǒ lǎopo yào dāng huángdì . "
这一次，小金鱼什么也没说，游回了大海深处。老渔夫无精打采地走回家去。这时，华丽的城堡又变成了破旧的木屋。后来，老渔夫仍旧天天打鱼，老太婆还是守着那个破木盆洗衣服。

笨小孩
作词:刘德华
作曲:高枫
哦...宁静的小村外，有一个笨小孩，出生在陆零年代
十来岁到城市，不怕那太阳晒，努力在七零年代
发现呀，城市里朋友们不用去灌溉，花自然会开
哦...转眼间那么快，这一个笨小孩，又到了八零年代
三十岁到头来，不算好也不坏，经过了九零年代
最无奈，他自己总是会慢人家一拍，没有钱在那口袋
哎哟往着胸口拍一拍呀，勇敢站起来，不用心情太坏
哎哟向着天空拜一拜呀，别想不开，老天 自有安排
哦...他们说城市里男不坏女不爱，怎么想也不明白
妈妈说真心爱会爱得很精彩，结果我没有女孩
笨小孩依然是坚强得像石头一块，只是晚上寂寞难耐
哎哟往着胸口拍一拍呀，勇敢站起来，管它上天下海
哎哟向着天空拜一拜呀，别想不开，老天自有安排
老天爱笨小孩

3.2.7B《马友友》3
Paid for by Patrons
十六岁那年，马友友在一个音乐夏令营中结识了长他两岁的美国女孩吉儿。经过七年的爱情长跑，在他二十三岁的那年结婚。聊起婚姻，马友友摸着下巴说：「老了，胡子这么长了！我和吉儿现在已不必说话，看一眼就知道对方在想什么了！」他说，现在与吉儿通电话，彼此只需「叹气」就好了。
吉儿曾在德国念书，也一度在哈佛任教，先后生下两个孩子后，就在家相夫教子、不再工作。马友友说：「你知道弄两个孩子有多累！我又常不在家，吉儿要当母亲又要当父亲，真难为她了！」 让不让孩子学音乐？「我教他们开车，教他们吃饭。但不教音乐，如果他们有意愿就学，没有就算了，音乐只是生活的一部分！」
马友友非常强调生活。他喜欢朋友，喜欢不同的生活方式，喜欢尝试新鲜。他有许多不是音乐家的朋友，「因为从他们那儿可以知道许多音乐之外的事。」马友友对生活是很有感受的。「年纪愈大，角色愈多，责任也就愈重。以前我只是父母亲的孩子，后来我成为人家的丈夫、孩子的爸爸，又是音乐家。我要扮演的角色愈多，责任自然也愈重，但是我不排斥这些，因为这是人生过程中一定要面对的。而且我也在不同的角色中体会不同的乐趣，这就是生活。」

马友友1 马友友祖籍浙江，一九五五年出生于法国巴黎。那时，他的父亲马孝骏博士和母亲卢雅文女士已在巴黎生活了近二十年，而且已经有一位四岁的女儿马友乘。马友友四岁那年，开始接触乐器。 马孝骏博士本身是位弦乐幼教专家、女儿友乘在他教导之下能拉小提琴，也能弹钢琴。四岁的小友友觉得姐姐弹得好也拉得好，潜意识里就不愿意和姐姐学一样的乐器。 有一回在巴黎音乐院，他发现体积最大的低音大提琴，马友友主动向父亲要求学那个乐器。可是，实在找不出有合适小孩拉奏的低音大提琴，友友只好退而求其次的学了体积稍小的大提琴，未料这个乐器改变了他的一生。五岁时，马友友就能轻松的拉三首巴哈的组曲，天分不高的人，甚至练到老都拉不好。 在马孝骏博士旅居法国廿七年，也是马友友七岁那年，他们全家迁居到美国。马博士继续在学校内任教，马友友则经过特别的推荐，有机会演奏给当年的大提琴大师卡萨尔斯欣赏。卡萨尔斯简直无法相信七岁的孩子有如此美好的音乐的产生，他对马博士说：“你不能限制这个孩子，你要随他去。” 这时马友友已进入纽约茱丽亚音乐学院，受教于罗斯门下，他的技巧已经无懈可击，罗斯说：「他很小就已经很杰出，听他的演奏我都感动得直想落泪。」这就是马友友，在十五岁之前就已令大提琴演奏前辈的音乐家折服。

2.2.23B《忠犬八公》
Paid for by Patrons
涉谷是日本东京最繁华的地段 商业之一，那儿有一个涉谷广场，广场上立着一尊小狗的铜像，人们称它为八公。 为什么人们要给一只小狗铸像呢？ 1923年，八公在一个农场出生，被一名东京大学的教授上野英三郎收养。每天，八公陪主人一起到涉谷车站搭车，目送主人搭上火车上班后，就会在车站外等待到下午，等候主人下班回来在车站外重逢。 日复一日，车站附近的街坊邻里都认识了八公，而且特别喜欢他乖巧懂事的个性。直到1925年的某一天，上野教授没有在往常的时间回到涉谷车站。不知情的八公在车站外不吃不喝，等了三天三夜，却不知道主人已经因脑出血过世，所以不会回来了。 随着主人的离世，八公被寄养在不同的家庭，但忠心的八公却没有因此放弃。每天到了主人下班的时间，八公就会在涉谷车站外静静地等候，这样一等就是10年。最后，八公于1935年因癌症去世。 八公去世后，他的尸体被制成标本，摆放在国立科学博物馆，让人仰慕。 人们在涉谷车站外建立了八公的铜像，并为他举办隆重的葬礼。 八公最后与上野教授同葬于青山陵园，和主人永远在一起。 日本铁路局甚至以八公的名字为其中一条铁路线命名。 http://www.bomb01.com/article/13371

2.3.10B《巴塞罗那的王子———梅西》
Paid for by Patrons
梅西出生在阿根廷的罗萨里奥(Rosario)，父亲是一名工厂员工，母亲则是一名兼职清洁工。他5岁开始踢足球，当时他的球队由父亲执教。 1995年，他转到纽维尔旧生队，成为青年队的一员。11岁的时候, 梅西被发现患有生长激素缺乏症(Growth Hormone Deficiency)。当时，阿根廷 河床队 曾经想与梅西签约，可是他们拒绝 支付梅西每月900美金的医疗 费用。 当时，梅西有一位亲戚住在加泰隆尼亚。通过他们，巴塞罗那的体育总监雷克萨奇(Carles Rexach)认识到这位天才球员。之后，雷克萨奇(Rexach)安排梅西到巴塞试训，又给梅西提供了一份合同。当时，那份合同只写在了一块餐巾纸上。 巴塞将年轻的梅西带到西班牙。2000年，梅西加入了巴塞的青训学校。4年后，他在对阵爱斯宾奴的比赛中上演了他职业生涯的首秀。 十年后的今天，梅西为自己创造了上百个纪录。 这么一名伟大的球员，实在值得好好纪录下来﹐好让下一代人能够认识他，乃至景仰他。

征服欧洲的非洲男孩––––德罗巴 这位切尔西传奇前锋于五岁时跟随着叔叔从科特迪瓦搬到法国。然而，年幼的德罗巴并未能适应新环境，更一度回到科特迪瓦去。之后，他父母也搬到法国，而他也只好留在了法国。 在法国，他并没有像大部份球员一样参加足球训练学校，只是参与了一些业余的足球比赛。在他加入Le Mans时，因为不适应每天的严格训练，他经常受伤。 最后，德罗巴直至21岁才上演他职业生涯的首秀。凭借出色的发挥，德罗巴获得法甲劲旅马赛的垂青。效力马赛一年后，他加盟切尔西，而这也是全世界认识他的名字的开始。 那时候，对于切尔西花费巨额购买已经26岁的德罗巴，媒体有很多质疑的声音。之后，德罗巴每每能在一些重要比赛以至决赛中都有非凡表现，除了2008年的欧冠决赛。那一年，他于116分钟红牌被罚下。不过，四年后，在2011-12年的欧冠比赛，他上演了一系列的救赎战，为切尔西赢得历史上第一座欧冠奖杯。 除了球场内的表现，德罗巴更曾为科特迪瓦结束五年内战扮演过重要的角色。这就是他的魅力所在！

姥姥对我，其实是特别重要的一个人。因为和二妹只相差一岁半，所以在很小的时候，我就和姥姥姥爷舅舅一家人生活在一起，直到6岁上学才回到父母身边，但每逢周末假期，也都是要到姥姥家去过的。对于幼年的我，姥姥差不多就是妈妈的位置和角色。 姥姥对我们这些孩子很好，甚至可以说是娇惯。印象很深的，比如我们和别的孩子起了冲突，或者表弟跟别的孩子打了架，姥姥都会帮我们出头，就是俗称的“护犊子”，因为在她眼里，自家的孩子总是好的，总是对的。比如小孩子总是赖床的，特别是在冬天，早晨离开热乎乎的被窝真是特别痛苦的一件事，姥姥就特别能体谅我们，有时甚至会塞块点心到被窝里，让你先满足一下。当然这些在有知识有文化的年轻父母眼里，真不是科学的育儿方法，但我们孩子真是很受用呀。 姥姥今年90周岁了，按虚岁，去年我们给她过了90大寿。这么算起来，姥姥生于1925年，那是河北一个叫孟各庄的村子。她兄妹六人，两个哥哥一个弟弟两个妹妹，在她五六岁的时候，她的母亲就因病去世了。姥姥的父亲便把三个女儿都送了人，理由是没了娘的孩子，男孩穿得脏点破点没人笑话，女孩子就不行了。两个妹妹都是姥姥抱着送去的，她自己则被送到邻村一个开着小店的家里，因为离得近，没多久姥姥就自己跑了回来，那家人还来找过一次，接回去后姥姥又跑了回来，这样也就留在了自己家。 18岁上，姥姥因为逃荒来到山东，嫁给了比她大18岁的姥爷。姥姥姥爷共生育了4个子女，却只留下了舅舅一个。1947年第一个孩子夭折后不久，就收养了我妈。妈和她的弟弟是双胞胎，不知是因为家里穷还是因为是女孩，或者两方面原因都有，她被送到了姥姥家。因为姥姥的奶还未完，所以我妈是吃姥姥的奶长大的，姥姥待她也是视如己出，坚持供她读书。1952年姥姥生了舅舅，1958年又生了一个男孩，之后又有了一个女孩，却都未能留住。特别是那个男孩，妈说她记得特别清楚，小脸胖乎乎的，长得也是特别俊秀，可很小就夭折了，安葬之前，妈说她还去摸他的小手，都是温软的。 经历了幼年丧母、成家后又接连丧子，不知是姥姥的性格使然，还是因为那样的年代这样的事情太多，我在姥姥的身上却从来看不到生活的愁苦。她是开朗、干练，甚至有点泼辣的一个人。 姥姥热心说媒，重要的是成功率高，而且还是全程服务，婚后小两口吵嘴闹别扭，她也要帮着说和调解，所以这样常来常往，有的原先不怎么熟悉的最后也处成了朋友，就像亲戚一样走动。姥姥对人很好，人缘好威望高，因我姥爷名字最后一个字是“庆”字，所以姥姥从“庆嫂子”变成了“庆奶奶”，好打抱不平、热心肠的习惯却一直没改。周围有儿子媳妇不太孝敬老人的，不给老人零花钱不给老人做可口饭吃的，姥姥会直接上门，给人送钱还去给老人包饺子，对那家晚辈就是一种批评教育。 姥姥不识字，可是在家一直是当家主事。儿媳妇自打娶进门就一直生活在一起，虽然背地里也会和我妈嘀咕嘀咕舅妈，但几十年相处下来已是十分难得。姥姥很早就学会了骑自行车，一直骑到70岁，直到那次被一辆汽车碰到摔了尾椎骨，在床上躺了几个月后才不骑了。姥姥头发白得早，一头白发骑着个自行车来我家，当时这在我的小朋友们看来都是一件新鲜事儿。小时候姥姥常对我们说，趁着年轻，穿啥都好看，就穿好的，趁着牙口好，吃啥都香，就吃好的。她过日子的心气总是很高。 姥姥80岁时，我请她来了一回北京，去了天安门，来了外孙女家看着日子过得好，姥姥很高兴。她对我说，你这是到了天上了。我明白姥姥的意思，她是让我珍惜现在的好生活。 ——摘自http://www.lifeweek.com.cn/2015/0526/46183.shtml Subscribe to our newsletter: https://goo.gl/forms/iGzDQVYToF7Rivo42 Support us through Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/learningchinesethroughstories
2.1.20B故事解读《珍珠项链》
旅游时，我给母亲挑了一串珍珠项链。母亲生日那天，她高兴地戴上了这串项链。我们先逛街，然后去一家酒店的餐厅吃饭。 吃饭的时候，服务员不小心把饮料洒在了母亲的衣领上。母亲就去了一趟洗手间，去了好久都没回来。我赶紧去找她。在洗手间门口，我看见母亲在跟一个穿短袖上衣的女孩儿说话，见我来了，女孩儿向母亲弯了弯腰，匆匆地走了。我觉得有点儿奇怪，但母亲什么也没说。 回到家里,我才知道事情的经过。 母亲在洗手间擦洗衣领时，把项链摘了下来放在一边。她擦洗干净后，才猛然发现项链不见了。当时洗手间里只有她和那个女孩儿，那女孩儿神色慌张地正要出去，母亲叫住了她。 “对不起，小姑娘，打扰了。” “干什么？”女孩儿的脸色有些发白。 “我女儿送给我一串项链，刚才我随手一放，就不记得放在哪儿了，人老了，记性真不好。虽然这项链很普通，但却是女儿的一片心意。要是找不到，她一定会很伤心的，你也帮我找找吧。” 女孩儿看着母亲，说：“我帮您找找。” 不一会儿，女孩儿就找到了那串项链。 母亲向女孩儿表示感谢。就在这时，我走了进来。 听到这里，我问母亲：“她拿了您的东西，您为什么不叫保安，反而谢她呢？” “她也许是家境贫穷才这么做的。”母亲慈祥地说，“要是我叫保安，女孩儿就失去了一个改过自新的机会。” 我的心微微一震…… 珍珠 zhēnzhū, noun, pearl 项链 xiàngliàn, noun, necklace 旅游 lǚyóu，verb, to travel 挑 tiāo，verb, to pick 串 chuàn，measure word for necklace, kabob and etc. 逛街 guàngjiē, verb, to walk and shop 不小心 bù xiǎoxīn，adv, accidentally 洒 sǎ，verb, to sprinkle 衣领 yī lǐng，noun, collar 趟 tàng，measure word for trip(s) 赶紧 gǎnjǐn，adv, hurriedly 洗手间 xǐshǒujiān，noun, restroom 短袖 duǎn xiù，adj, short-sleeved 弯腰 wān yāo，verb phrase, to bend over; to bow at... 匆匆 cōngcōng，adv, in a rush; in haste 奇怪 qíguài，adj, strange 经过 jīngguò，noun, the whole course of the incident 擦 cā，verb, to rub 摘 zhāi，verb, to pick 猛然 měngrán，adv, suddenly 神色 shénsè，noun, look; facial expression 慌张 huāngzhāng, adj, hurry-scurry 打扰 dǎrǎo，verb, to disturb 脸色 liǎnsè，noun, face 随手 suíshǒu，adv, conveniently; without extra trouble 记得 jìde，verb, to remember 记性 jìxìng, noun, memorization 普通 pǔtōng, adj, ordinary 心意 xīnyì, noun, good will 伤心 shāngxīn, adj, sad 不一会儿 bù yīhuǐ'er，time noun phrase, in a moment 表示 biǎoshì，verb, to express 感谢 gǎnxiè，noun, thanks; gratitude 保安 bǎo'ān，noun, security 反而 fǎn'ér, conjunction word, on the contrary; instead; but 家境 jiājìng，noun, family financial situation; family circumstances 贫穷pínqióng, adj, poor; noun, poverty 慈祥 cíxiáng, adj, kindly 失去 shīqù，verb, to lose 改过自新 gǎiguòzìxīn，chengyu, to correct one's errors and make a fresh start 机会 jīhuì, noun, opportunity 微微 wēi wēi, adv, slightly 震 zhèn, verb, to shock Support us through Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/learningchinesethroughstories

3.2.3B 故事解读《童年危机》
在我外甥女钱多多看来，年方9岁的她，遭遇了人生第一场特大危机——妈妈生弟弟了，她濒临失宠。今非昔比，之前她爸爸朋友圈还在发：“特意请假，保障多多首次期末考试！”今年就成了：“大家努力二胎吧，都会美梦成真的！” 其实一开始多多心态平和，笃定地告诉我：“妈妈说不会重男轻女。”虽然在她眼里，这话意味着“妈妈会魔法，能让弟弟和我一样体重”，甚至她还窃喜不已：父母忙着照顾弟弟的头几天，也是她处于监管真空的时段——可以晚上10点再睡，睡前再吃一大根棒棒冰。然而没过多久，多多便得知亲友给弟弟的红包大都四位数起跳，她就再也无法维持平常心——要知道9年前她满月时，宾客人均才给区区几百元。在号啕痛哭前，多多大叫三声：“不公平！” 多多听不进“什么是通货膨胀”，更听不进让她放宽心的劝告。只要我谈及她弟弟，她翻脸比翻书还快——前脚还在跟我讨论《哈利·波特》的剧情，后脚就拿起铅笔对我念咒：“阿瓦达索命！”有时被我逼得急了，小学三年级的多多甚至会出其不意，拷问我的心灵：“小姨是你的话，会想要弟弟妹妹吗？”我被她噎得无话可说。坦白而言，身为从小看《家有儿女》长大的独生子女，我爱看情景喜剧拟真，可未必爱看情景喜剧成真。 也许心焦于家庭地位岌岌可危，多多丧着脸对我说：“一有了弟弟，没人检查我数学作业了。”紧接着成绩直线下降。气得她妈妈边吃补品边训她，威胁要取消暑期旅行。“你如果考不上实验中学，参观牛津剑桥有什么用！”多多却越学越颓，而且对游泳、书法、跳舞等等兴趣班都没了兴趣。她妈妈则被新出生的“夜啼郎”弄得精力全无，也只能口头警告多多：“等我坐完月子再收拾你！” 还是多多的爸爸出面化解了她的危机。多多目前最大的梦想就是先当新娘后当妈妈，她爸爸便让她打下手照顾弟弟，并把她抱着弟弟的照片传到朋友圈，注明“姐姐是个称职的小妈妈，很会照顾弟弟”，这令多多非常得意。更让她激动的是，爸爸要她给弟弟取小名和设计满月酒菜单。那几天多多威风得像广纳贤士的君王，决心让宾客当天吃遍各种口味的棒棒冰；我开玩笑建议她考虑叫弟弟“李才”，她不懂字面意思，却被我的理由打动：“先得有‘钱多多’，才能‘理财’。” 满月酒当天，多多玩得不亦乐乎，虽说她上方就写着“钱李府公子弥月之喜”。我边吃并无棒棒冰的酒席，边感慨多多忘性大，突然听见我爸对我妈幽幽地说：“政策出来时你如果要生，现在也该办满月酒了。”我悚然一惊，还没反应过来，只听多多的外婆大笑：“别再当爸爸，安心做爷爷啦！”接着她殷切地转向我：“男朋友谈多久啦？什么时候结婚？准备生几个？” http://www.lifeweek.com.cn/2016/0930/48219.shtml

2.2.3B 故事解读《狼来了》
2.2.3A 狼来了 Story
This story is called "the wolf is coming". It is about a boy who often lied eventually got a punishment. As kids, we listened to this story a lot and it was definitely one of our favorites. And it always reminded me to be honest to everybody, especially to my parents. :) 大家好，欢迎收听听故事学中文，我是小敏，我是宪宪！ 小敏，你小时候，有没有撒过谎？ 当然有啊。上小学的时候，我放学以后经常和朋友一起玩，所以回家晚了。但是我跟爸爸妈妈撒谎说，我在学校做作业。你呢？我小的时候不想上学，就跟我妈撒谎说：我肚子疼，上不了学。 那么，今天的故事，也是与撒谎有关系的！那我们来听一听。 故事 “狼来了” 从前, 有一个男孩子每天都去山上放羊。因为每天做同样的事情，所以他觉得很无聊。于是，他就想到了一个解闷的方法。有一天，他像往常一样，把羊儿带到山上去吃草。突然，他大喊: “狼来啦！狼来啦！” 村民们信以为真，立刻放下手中的活儿，拿着扫帚、木棍去山上救人。村民们到了山上以后，并没有发现狼，倒是看到男孩子坐在地上捧腹大笑，一边笑一边说：“你们怎么这么笨啊，我随便说说，你们就相信，真是笨！哈...哈...哈...” 。村民们很生气地离开了。 过了几天，放羊的男孩子又无聊了。他又对着远处的村民们大喊，“狼来啦！狼来啦！”村民们信以为真，马上放下手中的活儿，拿着扫帚、木棍去山上救他。和上次一样，村民们发现自己又被骗了。一个村民说：“如果以后你再撒谎，就没有人相信你了！” 终于有一天，狼真的来了！男孩儿大喊“救命啊! 救命啊！我的羊儿被狼吃掉了，快来呀！快来救我啊！快来救我啊！”村民们以为他又在撒谎，所以大家都装作没有听见。 这一次，男孩真的被狼给吃掉了。 引申：什么道理？不能撒谎！因为，如果诚实地对待别人，别人才会相信你。
