我记得我在石家住的时候在我学校里愚公节是一个很大很大的节日。学生不需要上课。我们过节般土袋，喝酒，吃包子等等。回美国以后我每个四月一日般土袋。很有意思！

December 04, 2013, 12:43 PMReally good lesson. Very nice that Greg only used English when absolutely necessary, and his explanations in Chinese were fairly easy for me to understand. I hope you keep it up for these Upper Intermediate lessons.

November 15, 2013, 12:48 PMThis lesson has inspired me to go back and listen to all those old 'Poems with Pete' lessons. I'd forgotten how good they were as a way to understand classical Chinese poetry.

March 14, 2011, 05:27 PMThanks for the url. I've been recording and watching the Chinese soap operas being televised here in the San Francisco Bay Area for the last year or so and I've found that, even though I only understand 30-40% without stepping through frame by frame on my dvr to read the subtitles, they have really helped reinforce and expand my comprehension. The majority of those broadcast here are from the mainland, and aren't on this website but it still nice to see that I will be able to rewatch Summer's Desire and Down With Love again, and watch some new ones without having to worry about setting my dvr.
