Hi guys! I am writing to tell you that I just changed the reference book I use for memorizing IELTS vocabs. The one I am using now is published by Xueweigui(学为贵). Highly recommended! This podcast includes topical vocab from Chap 6 to Chap 8 in the book. Topics are listed below: Chap. 6: technology and invention Chap 7: culture and history (and a little bit religion I 'd say) Chap 8: language and linguitics (my domain, haha) Here is a photocopy of topical vocab in Chapter 1. You can save/download/print it out to practice&review. Hope it helps & good luck in the IELTS test guys :)

一、关于“数字游民”： 官方解答：指无需办公室等固定工作场所，而是利用网络数字手段完成工作的人。 英文释义：Digital Nomad 个人解读：高情商：数字游民/freelancer；低情商：无业游民/homeless。No offense, 这是一个自黑的玩笑。 二、关于《The 4-Hour Workweek》 我愿称之为数字游民实操指南书。 本次播客分享了此书的第一章节：D for Definition. 以及原书中的英文生词、英语表达、好词好句。快来听听吧~

什么是Delta？ 英语语言教师文凭Delta(Diploma in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages)是全世界最知名、最受欢迎的对外英语教学资格证书之一，也是剑桥教师培训体系下最高级别的教学能力证书。 Delta属于英国国家资质框架QCF七级证书，与硕士学位同等。若今后考虑进修语言教育等相关硕士学位，亦可抵作部分学分。 作为高含金量+高难度的“双高”证书，Delta是晋升为教师培训师和教学主管的最佳王牌，同时也是剑桥CELTA培训师所都具备的基本资质。 适合人群 * 语言水平必须在CEFR欧标C1+至C2级别（相当于雅思7.5/托福105分）。 * 持有CELTA或类似包含课堂实践的初级英语教学证书（如Trinity CertTESOL等）。 * 完成CELTA类课程后至少1年以上的教学经验。
