🎯PHẦN BÀI MẪU
These days people in some countries are living in a “throwaway” society which means people use things in a short time then throw them away. What are its causes and what impacts can it have?
Dịch đề: Ngày nay người dân ở một số quốc gia đang sống trong một “xã hội bỏ đi” nghĩa là người ta sử dụng đồ đạc trong một thời gian ngắn sau đó vứt chúng đi. Nguyên nhân và ảnh hưởng mà xã hội này gây ra?
The topic of “throwaway society” has been discussed in recent years. In this society, people tend to throw away their old items regardless of whether or not they still work and purchase the latest version of things. This essay will look at some primary reasons for this phenomenon and the adverse impacts that it could have on individuals and the environment.
There are several causes of the throwaway society and I think advertising could be the first culprit. Advertisements encourage people to purchase goods and services that they do not really need by delivering a message that possessing the latest version of an item could improve a person’s self-image, confidence and even social status. For example, many of today’s teenagers spend nearly $1,500 buying iPhone X to show that they are wealthy and fashionable even though their old phones are still in good condition and perfectly functional. Another cause is mass production of non-durable goods which are often used once and thrown away. These products are much cheaper and more convenient than durable ones, hence, attract a large number of customers.
Individuals living in the throwaway society could suffer a great deal. They could easily get into serious debt if they get into the habit of buying the latest, novelty items. Many teens are being burdened with thousands of dollars in credit card debt for their unnecessary purchases, which could lead to depression and anxiety. Environmental degradation is another problem facing the throwaway society. Due to excessive production of disposable goods, huge amounts of hazardous waste are being discharged into the environment, which directly contaminates soil and water.
In conclusion, there are various factors leading to the advent of our throwaway society and increasing consumer debt and environmental damage are the two major problems which result from this society.

In vacation mode. A busy week for earnings, but I hope it will be a week for me to relax.
🌻CPI
"There are four main trends underlying the June inflation report. First are the items where prices fell sharply at the start of the pandemic and that are now returning to their pre-pandemic levels. Second are items where prices have temporarily risen above their pre-pandemic levels due to supply constraints and could come down. Third are items where prices are likely settling at a permanently higher level. And fourth are items where price increases have slowed rather than accelerated as a result of the pandemic, at least for now."
"Increases in owners’ equivalent rents—the Labor Department’s estimate of what homeowners would have to pay each month if they were renting their own home—also haven’t rebounded very far."
"Those prices could pick up in the months ahead, Ms. Bostjancic said, in part due to rapid increases in home prices. It takes about 18 months for a rise in real-estate prices to translate into stronger owners’ equivalent rents, she said.
“That’s one of those categories that needs to catch up following the worst of the pandemic,” she said.
That could add to inflation pressures in the coming months. Shelter costs represent almost a third of the basket of goods and services that the department looks at to calculate overall inflation."

🌻附上本周發表財報公司一覽表.
上週的類股表現, 並不是很好(連大型股都在跌). 看看這周的財報結果會不會有幫助.
🌻針對餐飲業做了些研究. 筆記可在下兩個地方找到.

目前餐飲業的窘境: 餐飲業在各產業中, 薪資較低. 疫情後, 因有人怕被病毒傳染(因為餐飲業是與人高度接觸的行業之一), 或是轉往薪資較高的產業, 或是想找到生活上的平衡(因為餐飲業時間特殊), 或因為家中有幼孩需要照顧, 所以餐飲業人力資源在疫情後反彈的情況, 不若其他產業. 解法? Technology.

Why yes I do like modelling
I originally planned to talk about why I like my job and the positive factors of the industry, but I got a bit sidetracked lol
Asian diaspora is something that's very close to my heart and a topic that my friends and I have constantly discussed between ourselves for years. I think many of us have underlying, unresolved feelings - be it positive or negative - regarding our childhood and parents despite it not being a popular topic in mainstream media.
I hope it doesn't seem like I'm "airing out my (family's) laundry" or so by posting this; I just wish to share with my fellow first gens and Asians that your hardship and feelings are perfectly valid as personally, I felt that a lot of my teenage years were full of undirected anger.
Let me know if there's anything else model or culturally related that you want me to talk about!

#北海道自由行 #札幌二條市場 #二條市場交通 #北海道観光
Hello大家好, Hello, everyone.
歡迎大家陪我一齊去旅行, 好榮幸能夠成為你們的嚮導 Welcome to travel with me.I am honored to be your tour guide
參加阿Tsar旅遊是免費的, 只要大家享坐家中, 夜晚11點 The tour is free as long as your sit tight and watch at 11pm
就可以欣賞到北海道的美景和美食, 這個團亦不需要小費 U can enjoy the scenery n food of Hokkaido without any tipping
只要睇完影片, 留個表情符號, 就已經是最大的打賞 As long as you finish the video and leave an emoji, it is already the biggest reward
今日要介紹大家就是北海道特輯第一集, 札幌二條市場 Today I will present the first episode of the Hokkaido, Sapporo Nijo Market
築地為東京廚房、大阪有黑門市場、札幌就有二條市場做代表 Tsukiji is Tokyo Kitchen, Kuromon Market in Osaka, and Nijo Market in Sapporo
http://yt1.piee.pw/LESSU
札幌廚房起源於明治初期, 起初只是一排排的魚檔, The Sapporo kitchen originated in the early Meiji period.At first it was just rows of fish stalls.
發展至今,已經有好多餐廳、乾貨和生果售賣 Until now there have been many restaurants, dried goods and fruit sales.
二條市場最大的賣點, 就是地理位置方便 The biggest selling point of the Nijo markets is the convenient location
它在札幌狸小路一丁目對面, 片尾會講交通怎樣來 It's across the 1st street from Sapporo Tanukikoji, and at the end we will talk about how the transportation comes.
札幌狸小路附近的酒店, 由三百幾港元起都有交易 Hotels near Sapporo Tanukikoji, deals starting from HK $ 300
但是我就有一晚住在狸小路四丁目入面, But I stayed one night at 4th street of Tanukikoji
一間網吧過夜, 174HKD, 遲些會為大家介紹 I will introduce an internet cafe for 174HKD/night later
記得按通知制, 就可以第一時間看到我如何窮遊北海道喇 Remember to press the notification bell in order to see how I budget traveled in Hokkaido
說回二條市場, 有大約15間水產公司和魚店,販賣當日入貨最新鮮的海鮮。 Speaking of Nijo Market, there are about 15 aquatic companies and fish shops that sell the freshest seafood that day.
除了鮮魚之外,亦有好多店舖販賣乾貨和海產加工品。In addition to fresh fish, there are also many shops selling dry goods and processed seafood.
有好多店舖提供寄送服務, 當然是要附加費用啦。 There are many shops offering delivery services, of course at an additional cost
北海道有三大名蟹, 就是帝皇蟹、松葉蟹,以及毛蟹。There are 3 famous crabs in Hokkaido, namely emperor crab, Matsuba crab and hairy crab.
帝皇蟹又細分為鱈場蟹、棘蟹、花咲蟹與油蟹4種,King crab is further subdivided into 4 types: Red King Crab, spiny crab, flower crab and oil crab.
不過通常泛指身價最高的鱈場蟹。However, it usually refers to the most valuable Red King Crab.
鱈場蟹之所以特別矜貴,產量稀少固然是原因之一,One of the reasons why Red King crabs are so expensive and their production is scarce
同時也因為需時10年才會長至3公斤重,It takes 10 years to grow to 3 kg.
蟹肉特別結實,粗壯而肉質飽滿的蟹腳更是賣點,Crab meat is particularly strong, thick and plump crab legs are a selling point
而11月至2月正是當造期。有「蟹后」美譽的松葉蟹至為鮮甜嫩滑,The period from Nov to Feb is extreamly good. Matsuba crab, known as the "Crab Queen", is sweet and tender
無論是刺身, 抑或 配野菜和昆布煮成日式火鍋也鮮甜無比,Whether it's sashimi, or boiled Japanese hot pot with vegetables and kumbu
毛蟹係北海道獨有的海產,因全身長滿金黃色的細毛而得名,Hairy crabs with golden tiny hair are a seafood unique to Hokkaido.
每年12月至2月為最佳品嘗季節,雖然體形小, The best tasting season is from Dec to Feb every year.
一般只有約600克重,蟹肉也算不上豐厚,Generally it weighs about 600 grams, and crab meat is not considered rich.
但甘香滑溜的蟹膏卻幾乎布滿全身,濃郁蟹香亦是眾蟹之首,But the sweet and creamy crab paste almost covers the whole body, and the rich crab flavor is also extraordinary.
用來炮製火鍋、熬粥或蒸熟凍食一樣鮮味無窮,Used to make hot pot, porridge or steamed cold plate also excellent
加少許清酒拌勻同吃已非常可口。Add a little sake and tastes very delicious
至於在二條市場最出名的餐廳, 就是大磯的海鮮丼是必食之選 As for the most famous restaurant in Nijo Market, the seafood restaurant in Ohiso is a must-eat
「三色丼」可以吃到滿滿的海膽、鮭魚卵和鱈場蟹, Tri-don included full sea urchin, salmon roe and cod crab
..............
二條市場是遊客區, 但地點超級方便, Nijo Market is a tourist area, but the location is super convenient
交通就是由地鐵南北線‧東西線‧東豐線的大通站34號出口步行約5分鐘。Traffic is about 5 minutes walk from Exit 34 of Odori Station on the North-South Line, East-West Line, and Tōhō sen Line of the subway
狸小路相等於大阪心齋橋, 大家可以行完街再來這裏吃東西 Tanukikoji is equivalent to Osaka Shinsaibashi, everyone can come here after shopping
下一集我會帶大家去一間最多local人幫襯的中央魚市場 In the next episode, I will take you to a central fish market with a lot of local people.
我會在一間連古天樂、姜濤等明星去打卡的餐廳開餐 I will have dinner at a restaurant where celebrities also visited
抵食不用說, 仲要好好味, 阿Tsar旅遊團, 是標榜洗好少錢去享受生活 Cheap n good taste. Joinning Tsar's tour is touting a little money to enjoy life
記得睇完片留個表情符號以示支持, 我哋下一集再見,88。 Remember to leave an emoji to show support, I'll see you in the next episode, 88
請用片右下角調4K睇片。
