Video Link: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTU5Mjg0NTc2.html
Watched Joe Wong&#8217;s jokes online just now. It&#8217;s really hard for Chinese people to understand his jokes cause we don&#8217;t have the cultural backgroud to appreciate those jokes. But anyway it&#8217;s a good chance to learn more about American culture, politics and history, like Row VS Wade, the first amendment, American president and vice [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dealbreaker</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The other day I was watching an English movie with Chinese subtitles and found out an interesting word “deal breaker” was mistranslated.
The reason why I say this word “deal breaker” is interesting is because it can be used in various and totally different contexts so that it can be translated in different ways. But it’s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Translation for &#8220;lift&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was in Hong Kong airport last Wednesday evening. I asked a security guy in Mandarin : &#8220;Dian Ti Zai Na 电梯在哪?&#8221; ( I wanted to know where the lift is.)  I followed his instruction and reached an escalator.  I thought maybe his mandarin is not good enough and misunderstood me.

		<title>A small but warm help</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Went to the States for two weeks in August and had a lot of good experiences:-)
I was very much impressed by Americans&#8217; willingness to help others.  A simple example is: wherever my friends and I went, there were passers-by who would come up to me and ask: &#8220;Do you want me to take a photo [...]]]></description>

Then a male westerner passed by our seat and then he stopped and looked at me :&#8221; You speak very good british English. Did you study in London before? &#8220;  Though I didn&#8217;t think my English was as excellent as [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reality is What You Believe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I listened to Tom&#8217;s (a life coach) workshop last week. I was struck by one of his sentences&#8212;reality is what you believe.
He asked the audience to do a simple but valuable excercise: write down all the current limiting beliefs in the left side of a piece of paper and then thought about how to convert those [...]]]></description>
