March 19, 2025S3E3: 哈佛大學免費讀！年收三百萬以下家庭學雜費全免
哈佛大學一直是全世界與美國本土優秀學子夢寐以求的校園，但跨入這道窄門的條件，除了得有高超學識能力、特殊技能之外，還必須能承擔那驚人的高昂學雜費，這一點往往讓不少人就此打退堂鼓。但現在校方宣佈，家庭年收入10萬美元以下的學子，將享有學雜費全免的待遇。

One of the biggest barriers for getting into Harvard University for students who make the cut is falling by the wayside.

對於符合資格的學生來說，進入哈佛大學的最大障礙之一正在逐漸消失。

The prestigious IVY League school announced plans Monday to make tuition free for any student whose family makes $200,000 or less per year. The changes will go into effect at the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year.

這所常春藤名校於週一宣布，計劃讓家庭年收入在 20 萬美元以下的學生免學費。這項變革將於 2025-2026 學年開始生效。

Students whose families make $100,000 or less not pay anything to attend, including for food, housing, health insurance and travel costs.

此外，家庭年收入在 10 萬美元以下的學生，不僅學費全免，還包含食宿、健康保險及旅費等費用。

“Putting Harvard within financial reach for more individuals widens the array of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives that all of our students encounter, fostering their intellectual and personal growth,” said Harvard University President Alan M. Garber in a statement.

「讓更多人能夠負擔得起哈佛的學費，有助於擴大學生所接觸到的不同背景、經驗與觀點，進而促進他們的智識與個人成長。」哈佛大學校長艾倫·M·加伯在聲明中表示。

✅ Only the best athletes make the cut for the Olympic team.

（只有最優秀的運動員才能入選奧運隊。）

台灣導演李安獲頒美國導演工會獎（DGA Awards）最高榮譽「終身成就獎」，是該組織88年來第36位獲得殊榮的導演，更是臺灣第一人。亞洲臉孔能在白人至上的美國電影圈佔有一席之地，真的非常不容易，真的替他開心！

Acclaimed Taiwanese filmmaker Ang Lee (李安), who has won two Oscars and other awards over the past few years, received the Directors Guild of America's (DGA) 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award at a ceremony held at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California on Saturday.

"Born and raised in Taiwan, it feels like a realization of the American dream to be here on this stage. I am a dreamer at my core.

When Lee was about to read his acceptance speech, he put on his reading glasses and joked that this means it's time for the Lifetime Achievement Award.

December 17, 2024 S2E10 滑手機到世界末日六親不認？【大腦腐敗】成2024代表字

滑手機不止浪費時間，甚至可能讓腦部機制產生質變?! 牛津大學出版社選出『腦腐 brain rot』作為 2024代表字，指的是「一個人的心理或智力狀態出現惡化徵兆，尤其是在過量吸收瑣碎、缺乏挑戰性內容後，所引發的現象」，福斯新聞網訪問腦部神經科學家，也提出類似的看法。

Oxford University Press has chosen "brain rot" as its word of the year.

Some experts believe that constant, endless scrolling of social media and other online content is doing exactly that – rotting our brains.

A certain part of the brain, called the habenula, is responsible for getting stuck in endless scrolling.

This is how social media addictions can form as this part of the brain can make it "very painful" to stop scrolling.

This can result in a "dangerous" loss of motivation, a neuroscientist warned.

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution for avoiding brain rot. The key is learning what works best for the individual, which involves "tweaking and tinkering and adjusting as you go."

重要單字：

rot 腐敗

scroll 捲動

habenula 疆核

addiction 癮

motivation 動機

neuroscientist 神經科學家

one-size-fits-all 通用的、一體適用的

tweaking and tinkering 微調修補

December 04, 2024 S2E9 史上最短命！南韓總統宣布戒嚴震驚全球數小時後收回成命

超級傻眼！本來寫好一篇文章跟大家淺談南韓戒嚴的狀況，結果按下發文鍵之後，上臉書發現…已經被投票否決了😂

看時事學英文就來聊韓國總統尹錫悅的瘋狂決定，以及堪稱史上最短命的戒嚴（應該是好事吧）

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said on Wednesday he would lift a surprise martial law declaration he had imposed just hours before, backing down in a standoff with parliament which roundly rejected his attempt to ban political activity and censor the media.

Protesters outside the National Assembly parliament shouted and clapped. “We won!” they chanted, and one demonstrator banged on a drum.

The main opposition Democratic Party called for Yoon, who has been in office since 2022, to resign or face impeachment.

martial law 戒嚴

declaration 宣布、宣言

impose 施行

lift 解除

standoff 僵局

attempt 試圖

ban 禁止

censor 審查

chant 齊聲朗誦

demonstrator 示威者

impeachment 彈劾

November 28, 2024 S2E8 台灣棒球站上世界巔峰韓媒也盛讚12強賽戰果

太興奮啦！看比賽看到老淚縱橫，第一隻全壘打還聽到鄰居歡聲雷動😊學英文就是趁這個時候，看看國際媒體怎麼報導台灣的表現。這次奪冠，韓媒也盛讚台灣棒球『站上12強巔峰』！

Taiwan stood at the top of the 2024 WBSC Premier 12.

It was an outcome that no one -- perhaps not even the team's own manager -- would have predicted. In the gold medal contest between Chinese Taipei and the seemingly unstoppable Samurai Japan, who had won 27 consecutive games dating back to 2019, it was Chinese Taipei who emerged victorious. It was the first major international tournament victory for Chinese Taipei, whose previous best finish was a silver medal at the 1992 Olympics.

"This event made history, and this is a meaningful moment for us all," manager Hao-Jiu Tseng said. "The game against Team United States, against Team Japan. We made it through to be here. What we accomplished was so big."

D-backs No. 7 prospect Yu-Min Lin shut down the Japanese hitters, giving up just one hit in four innings, before the team broke through with four runs on two homers in the fifth. That was all it took to defeat the world's No. 1 ranked baseball team.

這是一個沒有人 - 甚至是球隊自己的經理 - 會預測到的結果。在中華台北隊和看似不可阻擋的日本武士隊之間的金牌爭奪中，中華台北隊獲得了勝利。這是中華台北首次在大型國際賽事中獲得勝利，此前的最好成績是在 1992 年奧運會上獲得銀牌。

「這項賽事創造了歷史，這對我們所有人來說都是有意義的時刻，」總教練曾豪駒說。「對美國隊的比賽，對日本隊的比賽。我們熬過了難關，來到這裡。我們的成就是如此重大。」

響尾蛇隊7號新秀林昱珉封鎖了日本打者，在四局中只被打出一支安打，然後在第五局靠著兩支全壘打攻下四分。就這樣擊敗世界排名第一的棒球隊。

stand at the top 站上巔峰

premier 主要的，首相

outcome 結局

predict 預測

consecutive 連續的

emerge 浮現

victory 勝利 / victorious 勝利的

accomplish 達成

prospect 前景、新秀(有可能打進大聯盟的選手)

inning (棒球)局

homer 全壘打

run (棒球)分

November 21, 2024 S2E7 NewJeans疑遭霸凌？團員Hanni發聲撼動韓國娛樂圈

有些人以為只有弱者才會遭到霸凌，但是NewJeans在韓國演藝界夠強大了吧？卻還是傳出疑似遭到同公司的高層霸凌，但團員Hanni發出的不平之鳴，有機會改革向來被認為黑暗高壓的韓國娛樂圈嗎？來看我改寫自BBC的新聞。

During an impromptu YouTube livestream on 11 September, 20-year-old Hanni described how senior members of Hybe ignored her and her bandmates, and gave them cold shoulder. She also alleged that employees of the agency bad-mouthed NewJeans on internal communication app.

Her allegations prompted fans to file a petition about workplace bullying to the government.

But on Wednesday, South Korea's labour ministry rejected these claims, saying celebrities were not seen as workers under the country's labour law - and were, therefore, not entitled to the same rights.

impromptu 即席的

describe 描述

ignore 忽視

give….cold shoulder 對某人冷淡

bad-mouth 說某人壞話

prompt 引發

petition 訴願

bully 霸凌

October 14, 2024 火星旅遊不是夢星艦推進器自動歸位太空發展新頁

以往衛星上了太空，火箭推進器往往在返回大氣層過程中燃燒墜毀，不僅增加安全風險，也讓發射成本居高不下。SpaceX此次進行的星艦試射，不僅成功回收推進器，更是完成讓其『自動歸位』的不可能任務。不僅寫下人類太空計畫新頁，節省近億美元成本，也讓許多人樂觀預期，有去有回的太空旅行將不再是夢想。

SpaceX’s successful rocket landing boosts hopes for travel to Mars**

The biggest and most powerful rocket ever built took to the skies again. And this time, it came back.

SpaceX launched its 400-foot-tall (122 meters) Starship vehicle for the fifth time ever today (Oct. 13), sending the giant rocket aloft from its Starbase site in South Texas at 8:25 am.

Starship is seen by many as the best option for interplanetary travel between Earth and Mars and being able to reuse components, such as the boosters, is essential for this to occur.

And that's exactly what happened. About seven minutes after liftoff, SpaceX executed what appeared to be a bull's-eye landing, hovering near the launch tower as the tower captured it with the "chopstick" arms in a bold and unprecedented maneuver.

vehicle 交通工具

giant 巨人、巨大的

option 選項

component 成分、元件

essential 必要的

Coldplay tickets for $11,000? Uproar in India after tickets sold out in minutes and resold for outrageously high prices

Fans eagerly awaiting the return of Coldplay to India were shocked to find tickets being resold online for as much as $11,000, prompting police to seek a statement from the CEO of the shows’ vendor over allegations of fraud.

Tickets were scheduled to go on sale by the official vendor, BookMyShow (BMS), at 12 p.m. local time on September 22. But for many users, the website and app crashed amid the demand.

Within minutes, the tickets were sold out and reappeared on other platforms for as much as 960,000 rupees ($11,458), sparking anger over the purchase process and the suspected use of bots to scoop up seats.

Amit Vyas, a lawyer and founding partner of Mumbai law firm Vertices Partners, filed a complaint with police, alleging the online ticketing platform made tickets available to scalpers and third-party websites for resale on the black market.
