欣賞煙火還是要注意安全
Enjoying Fireworks Safely
We should all be extra careful when buying things online.
A man who lives in Taichung bought what he thought were "fireworks" (煙火) from an unknown and unidentified source on the famous platform, TikTok, earlier this year.
Mr. Zhuo paid 500 NT for 20 fireworks.
He took his fireworks outside one night.
As Mr.Zhuo passed by a neighbor's house, he decided to light up (點燃) one of his fireworks and throw it into the neighbor's house.
This is a very dangerous thing to do, and is against the law.
The fireworks exploded very loudly, and there was a lot of smoke.
Startled by the very loud noise, Mr. Zhuo lost his balance and fell.
Police came quickly and questioned Mr. Zhuo.
He said he didn't know it would be so serious.
他說沒有想到事情會這麼嚴重。
Police also say that the firecrackers Mr. Zhuo bought online were highly explosive (易爆炸的), and were very dangerous.
Mr. Zhuo is facing fines, and maybe even time in jail.
This story reminds us to be very careful when buying things from unknown sources online.
Also, fireworks can be very dangerous, and we should all take extra care when we are close to them.

英國皇室成員將搬家
U.K. Royal Family Moving into Cottage
Where do princes live?
Most of us might think of big stone castles.
But one real-life prince now lives in a cottage (鄉村小屋).
你可以想像英國皇室家族的成員,同時也是皇位的繼承者,搬進鄉村小屋嗎?
Well, that's exactly what Prince William of England did with his entire family.
The prince, his wife Kate, and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis made the move in June.
The royal family left their life behind in Kensington Palace.
They moved into Adelaide Cottage.
It's a four-bedroom cottage that's about a 10-minute walk from Windsor Castle, where the Queen sometimes lives.
This way, the family can spend more time with Queen Elizabeth.
And the children will have more outdoor space for play.
The cottage is also a bit more private (隱祕).
When the family lived in Kensington Palace, there were lots of people coming and going every day.
The children also had a special nanny (保母) to take care of them.
Would you ever consider training to become a nanny to a royal family?

一天最重要的一餐
The Most Important Meal of the Day
We've all heard before that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
But many people still skip breakfast.
Or they just pick up something convenient, on the way to school or work in the morning.
我們都有聽過早餐是一天當中最重要的一餐,可是有些人還是選擇不吃早餐,或者是隨便在上班、上學的路上買個方便的東西就好。
So what's so important about breakfast?
Think about it this way…
Your body's just woken up from six to eight hours of sleep.
And you need your brain to focus, and your body to work for a whole day.
So here are some foods that can help give your body the boost it needs in the morning.
You might try having an egg for breakfast.
It is a good source of protein (蛋白質).
They also help you feel full.
This makes them a perfect choice for anyone who needs to have a bite on the go.
Or you might try some oatmeal for breakfast.
Oatmeal is also full of dietary fibers and nutrition.
The dietary fibers help our digestive system (消化系統).
Oatmeal also helps control and lower the amount of bad fats in our blood.
So, which foods do you often have for breakfast?
And which food would you like to have more for breakfast?
