Hi maruihao, I have the same problem. My solution (although it is a bit of effort) is to download the mp3 version and then play it in windows media player - with the window fully expanded widthways. You can then drag the dialogue pointer easily by the second. Useful also for when I do transcriptions.

Ah, glad somebody asked this question. I've just got round to looking at this lesson and don't ever recall seeing/hearing 么 used in this fashion before. Will have to remember it.

What was the reference to the Culture Show right at the end of the lesson (in respect of "delicious")?  Is this a CPOD show (I couldn't find it in the Lessons tab).

Hi, floalvarez. I'm not sure, but Ithink it might be the following?

去一点向死路 (to go a little towards a dead end)

John, Jenny - may thanks for the clarification of when to use 升值 and when to use 提拔.  I had never even realised there was a word other than 升值 for a job promotion!!

Sadly for too long already given my (relatively) tender years! I'm dreading the onset of ear hair now!

Pretz, just to add my brief two pence worth. I watched the video once for the novelty factor, but I don't plan to actually 'study' the lesson since mahjong doesn't interest me. I am biding my time to do a full 'study' of the next video lesson, assuming of course that the content grabs me! I still have plenty of audio UI lessons to work through in my backlog!
