I'm from XI‘AN, China, working in the petroleum industry. I have no experience in teaching Chinese, but I do read a lot and enjoy communicating with people from different culture.I studied environmental engineering in the University and petroleum engineering in the graduate school. I've traveled to US, UK, and Japan. Recently,I need to have telephone conference with a lot of partners from Canada and the US, and I found my English skill is not enough. So I want to improve my listening skills, and sound to be more professional.

    Why do you enjoy watching “Mad Men”? The last season of Mad Men is coming. And I'm wondering why I find this drama fascinating. First of all, Don is super sexy, he is really smart, sophisticated and mysterious. Not only Don, a lot of characters are very charming, like Joan and Roger. The dresses they wore in the drama are all very beautiful, especially Betty's. Almost every scenes are beautifully shot. The story unfolded quite slow, but I don't find it's boring at all. In fact, Every time when I finish one episode I have a kind of feelings hard to explain. Why do you enjoy watching “Mad Men”?

    不是雅号。It's a formal title used in 三国时期(或前后). It‘s a quite high-level military officer. when there is 左 or 右 in titles, it often indicates that the power are divided to 2 parts,if there are左and右and中,then power is divided to 3 parts.(power rank:中>右>左) so 将军means he's a military officer,左卫 indicates how many soldiers are under him.(half of the army of the capital city) so put it together, 左卫将军is a military title. 卫 means guard,you may already know.

    村上春树的 1Q84

    我昨天读完了一本日本的书小说, 1Q84。作者是村上春树。和我的朋友也读了。我喜欢结局,不过他不喜欢,。还有广大很多读者不喜欢 1Q84 还是但却喜欢他的其他著作,所以我要读他的其他作品。

     

    I like reading Haruki Murakami's books very much,especially his essays. : )

    What is the English edition of "Wechat"? Is it Whatsapp?

    We use “微信”(wechat)a lot these days. Among friends, we do not send "text messages" at all. It's an app to send words and short audio messages and pictures to each other instantly. Imessage can send audio messages, but it is very slow in China. 

    I heard about KIK, Whatsapp, Line... What app do you use in your country?

    投资集团

    <address>昨天我开始考虑建立组建一家新的投资集团。这个集团可能主要有两部分业务:投资和公共关系。显而易见,投资部门负责投资。公关部门会负责分享信息,给出投资建议,提供合作机会等等。我打算用这家集团为投资上市公司、私营公司、债券、房地产和国际贸易。 what's that mean?</address>


    我昨天就是为了这个主意开了新的投资组合。what's that mean?我已经投资了两家公司。

    我今天也考虑开一个微信的小组。虽然这个小组和这个投资集团是两个不同的计划,但是有可能谁知道要是有的小组成员会进入投资集团。这个小组的目的就是谈生意、经济的情况、旅行等等。我们在未来可能举会议、出差和一起做生意。 


    我现在在纽约和圣胡安(每周出差),不过谁知道我下个月会在哪儿。哈哈。

    I am preparing for my wedding

    Wedding preparation is an exhausted work. What makes me more exhausted is that my husband is not very helpful.
    He thinks we've already hired a wedding company to do the job,so there is nothing need to be worried about. He hadn't bought himself a suit until yesterday I push him to the mall and got him a suit. Unless I tell him exactly what to do next in detail, he will do nothing at all, as if he procrastinating, things will all be done magically,yep It will all be done by me in the end!!

    Is that only my husband like this? or men just don't care about wedding?

    Very interesting question! I think in these days, 正宗 mostly used to describe food, and more formal than 地道, like :正宗牛肉面,这家的烤鸭最正宗。 And 地道 can be used in more context,like this person is very 地道 (这人很地道,high compliment), means he‘s reliable and very honesty, It suggests I trust and like him very much. If you say:这人不地道,it means , he's really unreliable,and you highly doubt about his moral quality. You can also say 地道的英文简历,it means the CV is written in the way which the native speakers write. You can use 地道 with food for sure, we use it a lot ,much more than 正宗(正宗 is absolutely right), for example.:家乡的地道美食,这家味道真地道,这里的炸酱面很地道。 I feel people from Beijing used 地道 a lot.
