Hello everyone! Welcome to a new episode of 5 Minute Chinese. I want to begin by thanking you for listening to my podcast. I sincerely hope that it helps make learning Mandarin Chinese authentic and fun.
Secondly, I want to update you on the busy period from the end of last year to the beginning of 2024. I share the unusually short winter break , lasting less than two weeks. After the brief break, teachers worked hard to finalized the semester grades and comments, which were due last week.
Monday, 1/15 is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, a federal holiday in the U.S. I would like to emphasize the importance of remembering the civil rights leader's legacy beyond just enjoying a day off. I think it's worth it to explore the stories behind holidays and commemorative days in our own countries.
Thank you for listening! If you have any questions or comments, please let me know via comment or email. You can find scripts and useful expression below.
Have a great day!
大家好，欢迎收听新一期的五分钟中文。从去年年末到年初都比较忙，没有及时更新。不过新的一年我一定会努力保持更新。感谢大家一直以来的关注和支持。希望在新的一年里，能在五分钟中文这个节目里陪伴大家。新年的第一期跟大家聊聊近况吧。
首先我想吐槽一下今年的寒假有多短。我们是12月21号开始放假，然后老师1月2号就上班，学生1月3号返校。一共放了不到两个星期。我觉得我当老师这么多年来，这次的寒假是最短的一次，没有之一。一般来说，我们寒假应该有两个星期多一点儿。很多学校。尤其是大学，这周才开学。不知道我们为什么新年后就马上开学。感觉还没有完全休息过来，就又要回去上班上学了。其实上周只是开学的第二周。但是感觉好像过去了很久。这两周对于老师来说并不轻松，因为需要完成期末考试的成绩和评语。不过随着上周五的过去，这项工作也结束了。迎来我们的是今年的第一个长周末。因为星期一放假。
你可能要问，才放了假，这个星期一为什么又放假呢？原因就是星期一是马丁·路德·金纪念日（英语：Martin Luther King, Jr. Day）。这是美国联邦法定假日，纪念民权运动领袖马丁·路德·金牧师的生日。日期定为一月的第三个星期一，是在他生日1月15日左右。我以前说到马丁·路德·金日一般都说MLK日啊，或者是Martin Luther King Day。但是后来我跟一个朋友的聊天中，她都会用Dr. King这样的敬语，而不是直呼其名或者用缩写。之后我思考了一下，觉得应该像她一样称呼金博士，以表达尊敬。当然不是说用缩写的人和不用头衔称呼马丁·路德·金博士的人就一定是没有尊重。只是我觉得很多时候我们都忘了很多节日背后的意义。金博士是美国民权运动中主张非暴力抗议种族歧视的主要领袖。我希望每年这一天能提醒我们纪念像金博士这样的为人类平等自由奋斗终身的人，而不只是为了假期而高兴。我们学校在星期二会举办一系列的纪念活动。我觉得很好。我今天也翻找阅读了过去民权运动的历史。只有铭记历史，才能不重蹈覆辙。
不知道你在的国家和地区有哪些特别的节日和纪念日呢？你觉得你对这个节日背后的故事了解吗？有时候我们自己国家和民族的节日我们反而知道得不多，可能是一个很有趣的发现呢。如果你喜欢这期节目，请帮我订阅点赞分享，让这个节目可以帮助更多有需要的人。感谢收听这一期的五分钟中文。我们下期再见！

My guests in today’s episode are the wife and husband team of Emily and Paul Hughes.
They are two former teachers who have put their combined 30 years experience in the classroom to set up The Parent Guide to Education. There’s an array of help for all parenting issues from conception to toddler tantrums, but until now there was nothing to help parents guide their teens through the exam years, which is where Paul & Emily come in.
As well as discussing what the business does, we talk about how they transitioned from being teachers to running their own business, carefully designing and engineering a business they can build.
You can connect with Emily via https://www.linkedin.com/in/emily-hughes-339683165/ and Paul via https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-hughes-8040a115/ and their website is https://www.parentguidetoeducation.com/

The country's law students want fewer exams.
The NZ Law Student Association has released a survey which shows that 90% of students believe there is too much emphasis on external examinations.
The associations President Manraj Singh Rahi told Heather du Plessis Allan that law students are looking for a change.
Rahi says they want their assessment to more closely reflect the skills and expertise required when they enter the workplace.
He says they are disputing assessment style, rather than the importance of assessments.

Isn't it wild that we have to pay simply to exist? What is that nonsense? Diving into the high cost of living and how brave it is to reach out and ask for help. Remember: asking for help is not a sign of weakness but rather an act of bravery and self-awareness. Recognizing areas where we need assistance is essential for personal growth and well-being. It's time to break free from repeating the same patterns that haven't led to success and adopt a solutions-based mindset.

Everything seems better when we've had enough sleep; our mood is more stable, our response times are faster, we can control our impulses more easily, and perform tasks more effectively. For teenagers, who are growing rapidly and whose brains are going through a massive rewiring, that need for sleep is arguably even greater. But how many of us are certain that our teens are getting enough sleep?
Can we be sure that their moodiness, lack of attention, impulsiveness or poor grades are really a result of teenage hormones? Could they be caused by a chronic sleep deficit? In this episode we look at how much sleep our teens should be getting, how we can support them in reaching that goal, and the one tip for helping them to shift their sleep window.

Third year Canterbury University engineering students complaining about a must-pass exam have been proved right.
The University has apologised after a new report found taking a competency test in the middle of exam season violated policy.
Its timing meant more than half the students failed.
Student Association President Pierce Crowley says it's not about how tough the exam was, but its timing.
"The students accept that it needs to be tough if you want to be an engineer, but it was just around the structure, it was a lack of clarity around what topics were going to be discussed too. I think that's important. But mainly around having it so close to the main exam period."

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new episode of 5 Minute Chinese. Before anything, I want to apologize for the delay in updating. We are almost half way through the year, and it has been the busiest for me. First, we did so much work around the house: putting down new floors and remodeling the kitchen. I also spent a lot of time researching and planning my parents' upcoming visit to the US. Lastly, there are just so many things at the end of the semester. But, I see the light at the end of the tunnel!
If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to email me or drop a comment on Spotify. I hope you have a wonderful week. Take care!

大家好，欢迎收听今天新一期的5分钟中文。距离上一次更新已经有一段时间了，这里想跟大家道个歉，因为最近一个多月都没有及时地更新。确实是很忙。所以有空的时候都是休息、充电、self-care。所以谢谢大家的谅解。
0:31
那说到我最近都很忙，都是在忙什么呢？首先我家上半年以来一直在装修。春节以后我家先把全家的地板都换了。这是一个很大的工程，中间还有几天都不能在家。生活有很多不方便的地方。年初铺好了地板以后没隔多久，这两个月我家又重新装修了厨房：换了新的橱柜和台面。这个差不多又断断续续花了一个月的时间。在此期间我也是很不方便。因为我家的厨房不能用，而且我家到处都堆着箱子。
1:27
再有就是疫情结束了，我父母要来美国看我了。新冠这三年多，我都没有回中国，我的爸爸妈妈也没有机会来美国看我。所以我们一听到政策放松了，就赶紧想着安排爸爸妈妈来美国。虽然疫情已经结束了，大家的生活感觉已经恢复正常很久了，但是其实很多东西还没有完全恢复回到正常的样子。当然了，可能永远也回不到以前的样子了。比方说，来美国的机票就比原来贵了很多，因为中美之间的航班数量比过去差了很多。原来一个星期往返中美的航班有三四百个，现在可能只有几十个。但是需求还是那么高，所以肯定是会造成票价上涨。我记得原先暑假回中国只要一千多往返，现在要翻倍了，而且还要抢票。我爸爸妈妈很幸运地抢到了机票，但是他们来美国去哪儿玩，玩什么都需要我来安排。因为他们对美国了解不多，也不太会说英语。所以我花了很多时间每天晚上去查景点，订酒店、租车，买门票等等。这些东西都很花时间和精力。有的时候一晚上才能查到、定好一天的行程。不过，最后我觉得还是值得的，我对自己安排的行程比较满意，希望到时候一切顺利吧！
3:43
第三让我焦头烂额的就是期末了。这两周是这学期最后的两周了。这个星期我们是最后一周上课，下个星期一到星期三是期末考试，然后就是毕业典礼什么的了。因为我教很多不同的课，所以要准备很多不同的考试。虽然我是老师，但是我也为学生期末考试准备得好不好焦虑，但是我只能做到我能做到的，并不能帮他们学习。希望他们都能安排好自己的时间，到时候考出好成绩。
4:31
这应该是我在六月底之前最后一次更新播客了。因为下周六我就要坐飞机去美国西部去接我父母，一起先在美西玩，再一起飞回东岸待一个星期，最后送我爸妈从华盛顿回国。所以在我父母回国之前我想多陪陪他们，所以应该不会花时间更新播客了。感谢大家的支持理解，希望你也有更多的时间和你爱的，珍惜的人在一起。度过美好的时光。感谢您的收听，我们下期再见！

The Education Ministry's considering changes to new literacy and numeracy tests like fewer questions, simpler language and letting students use spell-check.
Documents obtained by RNZ show the Education Ministry and Qualifications Authority have been at odds about the tests' high failure rates.
In a pilot last year, there was a 34 percent pass rate in writing, 56 percent in maths, and 64 percent in reading.
NZ Initiative Senior Fellow Michael Johnston says the Ministry's clutching at straws.
He says it's spent decades presiding over declining standards while ignoring science on the best way to teach those key skills.

Memorization - Is it outdated? Or, did we throw the baby out with the bathwater?
In this episode we talk about whether we want to encourage memorization for exams or whether we want to avoid testing for it.
Ruth just gave her first exam with a provided equation sheet, and she’s not sure that she liked it. During exams, Claire usually has her students use notecards on which they have written anything they like including relevant equations. Ruth is coming around to thinking memorization is useful, and Claire is coming around to the concept of providing an equation sheet on exams.
Ultimately Ruth and Claire both teach some information that they want the students to have memorized and some information that they think it’s perfectly fine for the students to look up so long as they can find it and know how to use it.
How does memorization apply in your field? Share your thoughts with us at contactprofessorpodcast@gmail.com.
