Children today spend more time playing games on their phones and watching short form videos. My teachers told me that many of the kids have psychological problems. Their school grades aren't as good as students before… I can't help but ask myself, why is that? 免费阅读原文 Free transcript Sponsors: • italki: learn a language online ($10 coupon) • NordVPN (70% off, code: teatime) • Saily: eSim for your next holiday destination (5% off, code: teatime)

很久以前,交通不便。就是有这么一些人,他们不愿意收到交通,地理的限制,一马当先,游历四海,成为著名的旅行家。张骞就是这样的一个人。他走过的路,今人叫做:丝绸之路。 Long ago when transportation wasn't advanced, a group of people defied the limitations of transportation and geography. They set out for far, and travelled the oceans. They were great travelers. Zhang Qian is one of them. The road that he took is what we call "the Silk Road" today. ◉ NEW: TeaTime News 茶歇新闻 on Spotify ◉ Read transcripts for free ◉ Support us on Patreon ◉ One-time Donation ◉ Find us on YouTube ◉ We are on LinkedIn ◉ We are on Facebook
