Using the money they made from busking, the AJR brothers bought instruments to the living room of their New York City apartment, where they have been making their music ever since. The idea came when Ryan and I were in college. We did our first couple of semesters at Columbia, we were experiencing the whole college vibe, going to parties and doing that sort of thing. And we thought that we felt a little bit too adult and we wanted to go back to that feeling we used to have in elementary and middle school, where we kind of just liked a girl and that's all there was to it. 'I just like this person without having all of that other baggage that comes along with it.'” 背景音乐：Sober Up

It causes landfills to fill up with clothes, produces CO2( carbon dioxide) emissions, depletes our resources, and pollutes the air. “Fashion is something that touches us every single day. We get dressed every single day. I want to look good and feel good and do good, and that, to me, is luxury.” Buy less, buy well and look after what you own. 背景音乐：Youth

Alita fights for the lives of marginalized people, and this reference reflects our fight as a society towards injustice. While in the film Alita is literally on a journey to discover who she is, her story serves as a really powerful allegory (/'æləɡɔri/寓言) for any girl who doesn't yet know her own power. 完整文本可关注wei信公众号“Zoey八点英语”回复“阿丽塔片尾曲”或“Swan Song” 背景音乐：Swan Song-Dua Lipa

Fashion is a trade, not an art. I have never wanted to have my own fashion house. I wouldn’t want to be stuck with the business side. 背景音乐：班得瑞--天堂

He has introduced low-cost period pads to women living in rural areas in India. When his wife was banished from the household during her periods, Laxmi got worried on seeing her using a dirty rag as period pad. He looked for female volunteers to test his inventions, but most of them were too shy to discuss about their menstrual issues. However after 18 months that he started his research for his wife, she left him. And after some time, his mother also left him. The whole village ostracised him. His mini-machines have been installed in 23 of the 29 states of India. He is currently planning to expand the production of these machines to 106 nations, including Kenya, Nigeria, and Philippines. What is my mission? I'm going to make India [into] a 100-percent-sanitary-napkin-using country in my lifetime. If everyone runs after money, their life will not [have] any beauty. It is boredom. A lot of people making a lot of money, billion, billions of dollars accumulating. Why are they coming for, finally, for philanthropy? What if one decided to start philanthropy from the day one? That's why I am giving this machine only in rural India, for rural women. Money is not the goal, it is the consequence of success. 背景音乐：菊次郎的夏天

最近看了个TED很有感触，和你们分享。演讲者叫Tracy Mcmilla，她的妈妈曾经酗酒。Tracy结过三次婚…… [ 英文参考 ] 节目全文及TED视频可关注公众号“Zoey八点英语”回复“结婚”获取 The speaker’s mom was a prostitute and an alcoholic. What I’ve found through a lot of trial and obviously, many, many, many errors, to be the thing that has transformed my life and love, and that is this idea of marrying yourself. There is no man, woman, job, circumstance that can happen to you that’s going to make you more whole because you already are. And this changes your life. Number 1: you are going to marry yourself for richer or for poorer. 你将嫁给你自己，无论贫穷与富贵。 You don’t say to yourself, “When you get to the corner of Hollywood, then I will marry you.” You don’t say, “When you lose ten pounds, then I will love you.” 你不能说「等你去了好莱坞，我才嫁给你」，你也不能说「等你瘦了十磅以后我才会爱你」。而是不管怎么样，我都爱你，也就是爱自己。 And Number 2: you are going to marry yourself for better or for worse. 你将嫁给你自己，无论环境好与坏。 What this means is that most of us are willing to love ourselves for better, I mean, sure, I am having a great hair day today. I love me. That’s not what I am talking about. I’m talking about for worse, you know, the big life disappointments. Maybe you didn’t get the career you wanted, maybe you didn’t graduate from college, maybe you didn’t get the relationship you wanted. And third, you marry yourself in sickness and in health. 第三，你将嫁给自己，无论生病与健康。 You become able to love other people right where they are, for who they are, the same way you’re already loving yourself. I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.
