The trip to ChangSha
I travelled to ChangSha for a educationschool the last few days. ChangSha is a very prosperous and beautiful city, especially in entertainment. The weather is hot and wet, so the people eat a lot of capsicums peppers to get rid of the moisture. Maybe because I growgrew up in a samll small village in Guangdong, I don't really like the tall bulidings and nightlife. So it's so boring at night for me, I just watching TV in the hotel. I like to eat ate a little spicy food, but my body did not adapting. The last day, I went to the Orange Island. The weather was so hot to make it made me wetty and faint. I almost fell down. Fortunately I found something to eat to make me feel better. The feeling was so very bad. I even had little time to visit. Anyway, ChangSha did not impressing me. What I really favorite My favorite thing is the fresh lotus (莲子). If I can could eat them everyday, that's I would be very happy.
0 votedAugust 14, 20120- I originally tried to learn Chinese with version 2, and it was HORRIBLE. Here are some reasons. 1. They teach you the same set of words and sentences in every language, ignoring any cultural differences. So you'll learn the Chinese for a lot of common words in western cultures - like "fork" and "orange juice" for example, which are rarely used in China - and you will not learn many common Chinese words such as "chopsticks" and "dragon." 2. They don't teach you any grammar. This may work in Spanish where they show you a pic of an elephant and say "un elefante", but it does not work with Chinese where they show you "一头象". Seeing this, I concluded that 一 means "an" and 头象 means "elephant" but this is wrong, 头 is a "measure word" and 象 is elephant. There is no explanation of this in the program. 3. They show you a picture and you have to guess what means, and the meaning is not always clear. In one case, they show a guy on a bull and say a sentence, then they show a guy on a skateboard and show the same sentence. So I was confused - what does this sentence mean? A guy riding a bull or a guy riding a skateboard? I looked it up in a dictionary - it mean a guy *falling*. From the picture it wasn't clear that he was falling off the skateboard and the bull, it just looked like he was riding them. I could go on, but the bottom line is this company has one product that they just translate into a bunch of different languages and then sell at a ridiculous price. They have no business doing that. Use ChinesePod, or Pimsleur, or heck just about anything else.0 votedJuly 22, 20120
Swimming story
In the morning of July 4th 1952, there was a big fog near the seacoast of the California. There was an island next to the coast. A forty-three woman was preparing to swim from the island to the California coast, and her name was Luox.
That morning, the fog was very thick. She was frozen by the seawater, and she could not feel the temperature. She almost could not see the boat which was used to protect her. Hours passed; tens of thousands of people were watching her on TV. Sometimes, big fish tried to approach her and was shot away by her protector. Fifteen hours later, she was either tired or cold and almost lost feeling. She knew she could not swim again, and asked for pulling her to be pulled to the boat. Her mother and her coach were in the other boat. They both told her that she was much closer to the bank and asked her not to give up. However, there was nothing except for fog when she looked forward.
The place was only half of a mile distance from the bank. She said later that letting her what caused her to give in was neither tired nor cold, that it was she could not see the goal. It was the only time that she did not hold out until the last end in her life.
Comment: this story tells that the goal should be eyeablevisible, and should be effective、active, and can help people get what they want.
I think the right goal is that staff jump and can get. When staffs think that if they work hard and then finish the goal, they will get reward, that is a good goal, but if the goal is too high or not very clear, the staffs may lose direction and cannot finish the goal.0 votedMay 10, 20120First notebook entry: Introducing myself
