In this season I love spring vegetables especially asparagus and artichokes. They can be cooked in many ways. You can prepare more elaborate dishes with them but also light ones likes salads or risotto. I love when, with few ingredients, I can prepare simple but very satisfying dishes and with asparagus and artichokes it is easy to do it beacause they have a simple but complex and unmistakable taste.

Müller 先生是律师,要在南京的一家德国公司工作两年。他来中国才两个星期,还不会汉语。他听白德明说汉语说的很流利,非常羡慕他。
Müller 先生想去参观明孝令陵,白德明说他去过,可以陪他去玩儿。白德明是两年以前跟一位日本记者一起去的。那次他们是坐公交车去的,路上花了很长时间。所以,这次他们叫了出租车🚕。他们两个人玩儿了一整天,玩儿得很高兴😄。
白的明回到北京以后,马上打开电脑上网。他太太给他发了三封电子邮件。这时候,他想家了,马上就写了个很长的邮件给他太太,询问了家人的情况,也把他碰到Müller 先生的事告诉了她。
白德明还要在中国待几年。他想让太太和孩子也来北京住一段时间。

Through the dusty streets of Memphis, The procession moved sluggishly; In silence, the priests walked there, Silent was the vast crowd. Such was the will of the one Whom they carried to the grave; Life did not startle him, but before death He was terrified by the ominous dream of prophecy. And it seemed to him: "The final hour approaches, And the dead hold no power over the living... The Axe of Truth... it Ends the days of the fortunate in disgrace!" And he said: "I placed a faithful guard, Silence—it safeguarded my life. Let it be my guard even in death, I command silence to prevail." Silence! And let it alone Accompany me to the grave with vases, Let there be no moan or wail for me, Nor hymns for my worldly glory! Such is my will. Master And servant, submit to my will! He who fulfills my will—I myself Shall be his advocate before Osiris." Through the dusty streets of Memphis, The procession steps silently— To pay the final honor to Amenhotep, Both servant and master proceed. And in every soul lies a silent Question: "Why? The final honor is given Even to the last servant, and before death They part with him in lamentation." But for the great king—no weeping, no moan, No hymn for the honor of his splendid life... He was so unshaken in life— Did death unsettle Amenhotep? Life so noisy, yet death so silent— Why such a mysterious command?..." The dark question sank sharp claws deep, And tore at their souls with dark anguish... The servants march in an endless throng, With gifts and sacrificial vessels, Dark armor-bearers follow behind— As the all-powerful king himself decreed. Peacefully, the priests step in double rows, Sprinkling the path with sacred moisture; And like a golden boat upon waves, The sarcophagus sways above the crowd. Behind the golden sarcophagus walks The queen with her close attendants, And silent tears fall into the dust, Unrestrained by command or will... Behind, a disordered crowd of people... No sound, no voice. Their heads bow silently... As if the dead were escorting the dead Into the kingdom of the departed. Behold, the dark abode of death Rose distant before their gaze— Unshaken for its fleeting dust, Amenhotep built it in his lifetime. Priests, people, and kin stopped before it, Weary from silence and the journey, And they placed the golden sarcophagus At the royal tomb before the grand gates. And the old high priest raised his staff: "Thus it stands in our ancient law: Let him speak who, in this world, Is dissatisfied with the king's will!" But no one responded to the call. In the silence, the summoning words echoed faintly, Like the invisible flight of a timid bird In the dark of night. And again, to summon them, The high priest raised his staff once more— And stopped... A warrior stepped to the threshold Of the tomb, ascending the stone there. "Amenhotep's supreme law Stops at the dark threshold of eternity— I raise my voice to deliver judgment With the heavy axe of truth!" With grandeur, his crown shone bright— But in darkness, his restless spirit faded: He did no good, like a single grain of sand, But brought harm, like the countless sands of the desert! But his power was guarded by strict law— What the king's will accomplished, Could not be judged during his lifetime, Nor dared anyone speak of it. Silence watched over life. Before death, he commanded silence upon us— To shield himself from the final judgment And from the wrath of the people! He destroyed, trampled, desecrated, And turned into barren wastelands The spirit, conscience, and heart of the people— The only fertile fields. In the field of justice, where fruit grows, And nourishes happiness on earth: He trampled what every king Is called upon from the throne to protect! The sacred will of Osiris Placed these words upon my lips: Over the living, silence shall watch— Over the dead, deliver divine judgment! He did not give to the people, but took Even their meager happiness on earth. And Osiris took away his eternity And the happiness within it as recompense. Here’s the translation of these lines: Amenhotep's supreme law Stops at the dark threshold of eternity— I raise my voice to deliver judgment With the heavy axe of truth! The old high priest raised his staff, But could not stop the axe— And into pieces, the golden sarcophagus Shattered under the heavy blows. Blow after blow, like thunder, Echoed far and wide, And the crowd was petrified with horror, The unconscious terror of a dark storm. But in a moment—a wild frenzy struck, And the spaces echoed with furious cries... By the sarcophagus of the great king, Silence spoke madly. And its speech was cruel— The crowd surged and gathered, And underfoot, they trampled and crushed The torn flesh of the dead body. * Pieces of flesh and bloody stains... They shattered the sacrificial vessels... Behold, night falls and completes What the day so fiercely decreed. Pieces of flesh and bloody stains... Listen! The fierce hyena howls wildly— With this funeral hymn, it gave The final honor to Amenhotep.

I think that english is quite easy if you compare it to languages like germany, polish, finnish. I really like it. It Is something like a "clean" language, it is direct and informal.
However there are a few things that I struggle with, above all "phrasal verbs" because in italiano we don't have something similari and out brain is not trainer for it.

1.The Original Purpose of Money
Let’s go back to the origins of money.
In ancient times, money was simply a way for people to trade goods.
Imagine this:
Your family grows oranges, your neighbor grows apples, and someone else raises pigs.
If you eat oranges every day, you’ll get tired of them. So you want to trade some oranges for apples, and maybe a little pork to fill your stomach.
Sounds fair, right? But here’s the problem:
The apple seller doesn’t want oranges — he wants durians!
And the pig farmer? She only wants rice.
It becomes messy.
So people started using something that could represent value — like seashells, beads, or eventually gold.
Later, paper money was created.
Money became a middleman for trade — something that made buying, selling, storing, and carrying value easier.
I mean, just imagine trying to carry 1,000 pigs to trade for a handbag.
Nightmare, right?
2.Money Reflects Your Ability to Produce
Besides being a tool for exchange, money also reflects your ability to produce.
Let’s go back to your orange tree.
Say your tree produces 5 oranges.
Each orange can be traded for 2 apples.
2 oranges = 1 kg of pork.
And 1 orange = 1 durian (okay, that’s a generous deal.
But what if you want more — beef, clothes, a motorbike, or even a house?
Then you need your orange tree to produce more oranges.
The more oranges you grow, the more things you can trade for.
So in that sense, money represents your production capacity.
The more you can produce (whether it’s goods, services, or value),
the more options you have in life.
As society evolves, “production” no longer means just physical goods.
It now includes skills, creativity, knowledge, and ideas — things that are often invisible but highly valuable.
So, how much money you earn today can also reflect your expertise in a certain area — your ability to solve problems or create value in this modern world.
But Things Aren’t That Simple (to be continued)

Also nach Heute, der sowieso eigentlich schon vorbei ist, habe ich nur noch einen ganzen Tag zum lernen, um mich auf mein erstes Examen vorzubereiten. Das Flüssigkeitsdynamikexamen findet am Dienstag statt und das wird zwar mein erstes Examen von vier und wahrscheinlich auch das schwierigste von allen. Außerdem ist die Note der Prüfung im Kurs ziemlich stark gewichtet---es macht 45% die Gesamtnote aus, was eigentlich ja voll krass ist, find' ich.
Also juhuu! Es ist nicht nur verdammt schwierig, sondern es zählt auch voll viel. Aber in gewisser Weise ist es ja auch gut, wenn ich es so früh in der Prüfungsphase machen würde, denn das bedeutet, dass das schwierigste auch das erste gewesen sein wird, das erledigt wurde! Aber damit will ich auch nicht sagen, dass das Physikexamen ein Kinderspiel sein soll, denn das wird es ganz bestimmt nicht.
Also, danach bleiben nur noch ungefähr sechs Tage übrig, in denen ich mich auf die drei letzte Examen, einschließlich Physik, vorbereiten kann. Dann geht es wirklich los---zack zack zack! Drei hintereinander. Boah, ich habe echt keinen Bock auf diese Tage. Aber danach bin ich endlich frei! Es wird ganz sicher auch sehr schnell vorbei gehen, also muss ich nur noch ein bisschen länger durchhalten, dann kann ich endlich den Frühling richtig genießen.

I plan to start my journey in Adelaide because the living expenses there are relatively low.
On the first day, I will stay in a hostel where it’s easier to meet people and possibly find job opportunities.
I want to open a bank account and apply for a Tax File Number, which are both necessary for working in Australia.
I feel a bit nervous about job hunting because I’m an introverted person.
However, I hope to improve my English and become more independent through this experience.

Today, I was confused about what I want to do. At first, I wanted to kill my time. I even intended to do something that was detrimental to myself, but it was a pleasure doing it. However, after I thought wisely, if I had time to kill, it's better to use my time for productive activities.
I understand that sometimes doing productive activities is more boring than doing consumptive activities, because consumptive activities don't need as much effort as doing productive activities. Yet, productive activities can enhance ourselves compared to consumptive activities. Consumptive activities themselves also need to be considered. We have to choose wisely among the consumptive activities that we want to do. There are consumptive activities that can enhance ourselves, and there are ones that can even undermine ourselves.
This is like cooking and eating activities. Cooking needs effort and creativity to do it, but we can get used to doing it, we can produce something from this activity, give an advantage to others, and even monetize it. Eating something is also like that, if we eat healthy food and not excessively, according to the portion, we can establish a strong "body system". It's okay to rarely eat junk food, because many of them are delicious, if we compare them to healthy food, but don't do it too often.

Ieri è andato tutto malissimo, non voglio parlarne. L'unica cosa che conta adesso è che devo prendere una giornata alla volta.
È strano e allo stesso tempo benefico che, dopo la giornata di ieri, certe cose non mi interessino più come prima. È come se il mondo si fosse fermato, ma io devo andare avanti comunque.
Ci sono cose che ti cambiano in modo scioccante e spaventoso, ma so che in futuro andrà tutto meglio. Le cose peggiori sono già accadute, da allora non c'è più spazio per ciò che è nocivo nella mia vita.

I learned to play the Erhu when I was a child. My parents believed that learning music could improve my overall ability, and they also thought that the music teacher could help look after me, so they wouldn’t need to worry about me doing something bad while home alone.
To be honest, I hated it at first. It was difficult for a little child to study a traditional Chinese instrument. To help me play the Erhu better, my teacher cut my long nails. Practicing was painful — pressing the strings for a long time hurt my fingers. But through that pain, I gradually became more skilled, and over time, the pain faded.
As the years went by, I started to love the Erhu and traditional Chinese music. Traditional music gives me strength. When I feel like giving up, I remember the pain I once went through and how I didn’t quit. That memory gives me the courage to keep going.
So, traditional Chinese instruments hold a special meaning in my heart. I will always love them.

Das Thema „ Berufliche Weiterbildung ist aktueller denn je. Vielen Menschen entschieden sich dafür, gleichzeitig den Arbeit und Bildung zu machen, weil sie einen schnellen Berufsteigen möchte.Wer hoch qualifizierte hat, wird man ein bessere Karrieremöglichkeiten bekommen.
Er lässt sich nicht leugnen, dass die Vorteile von einem Weiterbildung zahlreiche sind. Auf dem einen Seite hilft es dabei, die Beruflichen Qualifikation zu verbessern, zum Beispiel, wenn man sich weiterzubilden, bleibt mit neuen Stand, bekommt er einfach einen neuen Berufsmöglichkeiten, aus diesem kann man einen Hohe Gehalt zu verdienen, andererseits macht die Unternehmer ihnen Arbeitsgeber nicht verlassen, weil sie einen Angst habe, dass die hohe qualifizierte Menschen nicht einfach ist, wieder zu suchen. Auf dem anderen Seite stärkt dem Weiterbildung nicht nur die Bildung, sondern auch das Selbstbewusstsein und die Motivation
Trotz der Vorteil gibt es auch viele Schwierigkeiten, zum Beispiel, es ist nicht einen Spielzeug neben mit der Arbeit sich aufzubringen, besonders für Frauen und Berufstätig Menschen haben keine viele Zeit ,um den Beruf und Bildung in einem Hut zu bringen.Einerseits sind die Seminargebühren, Fahrkosten, und Bücher sehr teuer, man muss das Alles selbst bezahlen, andererseits unterstützen die Unternehmen und den Arbeitgeber es das Nicht, weil sie Angst haben, dass den Mitarbeiter danach die Weiterbildung kündigen kann,
Ich bin der Meinung, dass die Weiterbildung eine wertvoll investieren im Zukunft haben, trotz der Kosten und der Aufwand können langfristig sind, ich denke , das Staat und den Arbeitgeber müssen sich die Mitarbeiter unterstützen, durch eine finanziellen und Bildungsurlaub zu geben, weil einen Mitarbeiter sich sowohl neuen Innovation als auch neuen Ideen mitkommt
Abschließend lässt sich sagen, das Weiterbildung ist nicht nur Persönlich als als auch beruflich wichtig, wer bereite ist, Zeit, Geld, und Energie zu investieren, hat -langfristen vom Weiterbildung profitieren sowohl im Berufsleben als auch h im Leben

Heutzutage sind viele Hobbys nicht mehr so beliebt wie früher. Viele Menschen sind süchtig nach ihrem Handy und soziale Netzwerke, deswegen verbringt man selten seine Freizeit draußen. Allerdings gibt es noch manche Leute, sie ausfällige Hobbys haben. Zum Beispiel ich kenne ein Mädel, das Reiten mag. Sie fährt jede Woche nach einem Pferdestall, um ihre Lieblingspferd zu reiten. In russische Gesellschaft gibt es ein Vorurteil, dass angeln gehen wie ein Hobby nur für Rentner geeignet. Dennoch gibt es noch viele Menschen, die vor ihren Ruhestand angeln genießen. Ich glaube, dass für ihnen es die Art ist, sich zu beruhigen.
Ich habe entschieden, dass zukünftig ich ähnliche kurze Aufsätze schreiben werde, um neue Wörter zu festigen. Ich möchte auch mehr Zeit mit der Fehlerkorrektur verbringen.

Als ich in der Jugendzeit war, war ich deprimiert und habe ich oft dissoziiert. Ich fühlte mich, dass eine Glaswand zwischen der Welt und mir existiert, und Leben hat sich wie ein Zyklus angefühlt. Jeden Samstag bin ich in die Kirche gegangen, weil meine Familie katholisch ist. Seit ich 10 Jahre alt war bin ich nicht mehr religiös, aber ich konnte das zu meinen Eltern nicht erzählen. Ich war in einer Klasse mit Schüler von anderen Schulen. Die Kirche hat einen Spielplatz, und wenn wir Zeit hatten, durften wir draußen spielen. An einem Tag in der 10. Klasse ist ein Mädchen auf mich zugekommen, und obwohl ich noch nie mit ihr gesprochen habe, haben wir wie gute Freunde geredet. Auf den Schaukeln hat sie mir gesagt, dass sie an Gott nicht glaubt. Ich habe das zu ihr auch gestanden. Die geistige Glaswand ist ein bißchen gebrochen, und ich habe mich real gefühlt. Jetzt erinnert Schaukeln mich an Freiheit, weil ich in diesem Moment wirklich "frei" war.

My family lived in a small village when I was a child, where people farmed to make a living.
Years later, my siblings and I all left that village and worked in cities. During the time we were away, my father and mother passed away.
The house we used to live in was still there, but it was really shabby compared with other families' newly built houses.
According to current Chinese policy, to own a house in the countryside, people should be members of the rural collective economy, which means you have a piece of land in a village and engage in farm work for a living.
Since we moved to cities to work for the government, we lost our land at that time. Although our old house is still there,
Officially we have no right to renovate our old house. However, we cannot bear the thought of losing our house site.
I have been wondering if I can renovate our old house. Even if I can, there must be a lot of work that needs to be done in advance.

In this life, we’re taught to be strict with ourselves and forgiving toward others. That’s how harmony grows—when we hold ourselves accountable, yet extend grace to those around us.
But lately, I’ve been noticing the opposite. We’re quick to point fingers, to dissect the flaws of others, sometimes even harshly. And when it comes to our own mistakes? We brush them off. Defend them. Ignore them.
Maybe it’s easier to critique than to self-reflect. But I believe the world would be softer, kinder, if we all swapped lenses—just for a while.
