It's probably linked to the dialogue having multiple repeats of the same answer （不可以） which the system can't handle. I have removed that part of the exercises.

You're right. We're gonna make a video Qing Wen in the next couple of weeks. Keep an eye out.

The thing that gets my goat most is scooters riding on the cycle path to get around waiting at a red light. I've started just playing chicken with these people. Now I can shout expletives at the same time.

Thanks for the kind words. I personally thought this was a great lesson, and an important one to teach. Any other topics you would dare us to do?

down to / up to / due to, are all acceptable phrases, but there was a typo which I have now fixed. Now, get back to debating Chinese.... wink

We'll try and get the grammar audio fixed soon. It happens every now and then. As for the difficulty of the expansion sentences, I think they are about right for this level. Was there anything in particular we could help explain further?

Here are 3 lessons with the word "escalator" taken from our dictionary: https://chinesepod.com/tools/glossary/entry/escalator

 

二楼，坐电梯上去就到了。 

(On the second floor. Take the escalator and you're there.) 

宝宝睡着了，推车怎么上自动扶梯啊？ 

(The baby is sleeping. How are we going to put the stroller on the escalator?) 

啊，那么多人在等。我们坐扶梯吧！ 

(Oh, there are so many people waiting. Let's take the escalator.)
