本次干货：
1、如何精读经济雪人？
2、有趣的用法。
一、封面
1、封面标题 Assie RULES 澳大利亚牛！
Assie 澳大利亚人的自称/澳大利亚的一种口语称呼/澳大利亚人
rule 简洁有力 是很生动的小词
2、封面图片：袋鼠上跃 国旗上六颗星（七角星*1+五角星）呈现在封面
二、中国板块
1、新F4 小鲜肉：
Sim young male stars with a taste for make-up are enjoying a moment in vogue.Labelled "little fresh meat"by their fans, who consist mostly of women in their teens and twenties, they mimic an aesthetic(模仿美？） pioneered by singers from South Korea and Japan.
Of late the popularity of "little fresh meats" has been adding fuel to an old debate about whether young Chinese men are manly enough.
1) cizzy 娘炮 not manly at all 并没有男人味儿
Moreover "little frsh meats" have become bankable ambassadors for all manner of brands hoping to woo（追求） young female shoppers.（女性消费者）
2）bankable（有号召力的）ambassadors=spokesman spokesperson 代言人
2、Obituary（讣告）: Jamal Khashoggi
He could put on several personas（人设）, squezzing（挤压） his bulky form into a natty（整洁漂亮） suit in London and a polo shirt in Washington as well as the flowing white thawb（阿拉伯传统服装） he favoured in the Gulf.
put on 和后面的三种衣服呼应
3、The backlash（强烈反对） against overtourism
More people are traveling and many are visiting the same places.
Popularized by a film of the same name in 2007, which featured a "list of things to do before I kick the bucket", these internet lists direct tourists to the same "must see" places. The desire for the perfect Instagram snap has a similar result.
We Chat moments=perfect Instagram snap
三、标题
1、善用韵律 标题简洁有力
The wonder（奇迹） down under （澳大利亚的别称 有的时候也指代新西兰 也可以称为澳洲） 尾韵
beyond commodities（商品） more than ore（矿石）
healthy, wealthy and wise
In the end, Townsville stumbled（跌跌撞撞走） rather than swooned（晕倒）（程度由轻到重） in the commodity slump（不景气）. Its economy shrank（收缩） slightly in 2014-15 before returning to growth.
2、巧用典故
1）foreign relations：keep your friends close
来自教父II keep your friends close but your enemies closer
2）Immigration：Not huddled, but masses
自由女神像下面的诗句：
Give me your tired, your poor
Your huddled masses （移民）yearning（渴望，向往，思念） to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore,
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door.
类似的标题：Forget the huddled masses：Treating imigrants as a charity case is not working: time to change course
huddled masses yearning to get into wudaokou
Yearning to breathe free: America should reclaim（收回 回收 纠正） its role as a beacon（灯塔） for those fleeing persecution（迫害） and war
3、巧用地方英语
1）Dry as a Pom's towel （Brit=a British person 澳大利亚人对于英国人的称呼：英国佬）
outback dictionary 收集澳式英语表达用法
take a bath（不同于shower 是用浴缸的） every month 所以英国人的浴巾绝大多数是干的
这里来说澳洲的干旱
2）Politics:Spills and thrills 倒置下面的习语
thrills and spills: excitement and exhilaration, especially when derived from dangerous sports or entertainments:
experience the thrills and spills of water sports
spills 议会的席位（澳式英语的用法） 这里表现了澳洲政治的动荡
4、生动表达
And Australia as a whole sailed through（轻松地度过） the mining bust, with GDP growth never falling below 2.4%.
In a sense, this impressive search for technological efficiencies is the flip side （flip翻转 这个短语是另一面的意思）of a common criticism of Australia: that it is an experience place to do business.
flip-flops 人字拖
5、简洁表达（连字符）
1）Better yet, thanks to conservative regulation （and less-than-cut-through competition 没有那么激烈的竞争）, Australia's financial system was in good shape when the crisis struck.
2）Donald Trump is wrong about Honduran migrants. The Democrats are incoerent.

写法值得留意琢磨
四、Takeaways
1、读不懂没有关系 阅读时候不要有太大压力 对自己诚实
2、学3-5个印象最深的 在生活考试中有用的就可以了
3、享受 留意“别扭”的表达
4、不要做社群的努力 要自己思考：表达和我有关？句式哪里可以用上？
