英文寫作新專欄登場!
從這週開始訓練你 #中翻英焦點閱讀法🎯
謝謝來自澳洲的 Alex 老師犀利好文筆
快來讀讀,累積寫作功力,一起升級
前幾天 #全球串連早安新聞 香港聽友上來分享的大消息
大科技公司提出可能撤出香港!超級重大,Alex 老師就是這麼勇猛
在他的課堂要用英文討論這題目
衛報標題
Google, Facebook and other tech companies threaten to quit Hong Kong over privacy law
Alex 老師的課超有趣、燒腦、挑戰!
每週寫分析,下次上課就針對熱點議題練英文口說
讓很多自覺英文不錯的同學發現不足之處
不斷學習更精鍊的表達方式,提升、進步
我覺得非常適合英文不錯,但 #聊到深入議題容易卡住 的學習者
想要把英文從「堪稱流利」
升級到「談笑風生,什麼都能聊」
就應該到 Alex 的課練練!
好,因為我知道直接給你們看老師的全英文你們會滑掉
所以我設計了個中翻英焦點閱讀法
讓你們遊戲化,從閱讀中抓取實用 expressions
是不是用心良苦XD
來試試,以下每句引號裡的「中文」是題目
而答案就在 Alex 寫的英文中,找到學起來!
留言區就是作答欄,直接寫出來,寫錯我會挑出來~
不寫出來,自己學錯,我也檢查不到囉(汗)
-
開始:
「為公共利益設想」
Do corporations usually act in the interests of the public, or do they act purely to protect their profits?
「撤出香港」
That is one of the questions that should be considered in the latest threats from big tech companies to pull out of Hong Kong, and thus possibly leave China altogether.
「根據多家報紙的說法」「表面上」(提示:頗進階的副詞)
According to the accounts offered by various newspapers, an industry body known as the Asia Internet Coalition, which represents big technology companies such as Google, Apple, Twitter and Facebook, has indicated that their members will withdraw services from Hong Kong, ostensibly because they do not agree with the terms of new privacy laws being proposed there.
「此舉是為支持」「反對中國對自由的箝制」
To some commentators, it seems as though this action is being undertaken in support of a more open and free internet, and in defiance of China’s crackdown on freedoms in the territory.
「明確為了香港人民的利益」
But is this really a decision made by tech companies in the interests of the people of Hong Kong specifically, and the internet in general?
-
準備好作答了嗎?我在留言區等你
(選一題就好了XD)
Alex 老師這社論等級的文筆,大家應該學到很多吧!我自己也是
下週一晚上他的課程就是用這素材更深入練英文口說
如果你一直以來嚮往講英文也可以跟中文一樣靈活
就是要上這樣的課啦!
別再找家教陪你聊天了(那只是維持,不是進步。現在既然可以進步,為什麼只求維持?不進則退就是殘酷現實。)
每堂課都討論最新國際時事
學習 50 個 #進階單字
還有 #糾正發音 與 #文法錯誤
(我知道很多人想要這個!我自己就是,我懂你們。)
歡迎揪朋友一起加入!

【國立臺灣大學109學年度畢業典禮 致詞代表 資訊工程學系韓哈斯】
Student Address, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
International student Seth Austin Harding from Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering
.
校長、教授、以及在螢幕前的各位同學,大家好。非常感謝臺大給我這個機會。我是韓哈斯,來自美國華盛頓特區。我會以自身的真實經驗出發,來跟大家分享臺大帶給我的收穫。
我當初為什麼選擇來台灣求學呢?我小時候非常喜歡看武打片,然後我十歲的時候去看了一部電影叫做「功夫熊貓」。這部電影成為了我最喜歡的電影,主角「阿波」的故事跟我的故事很像。我看完了之後就決定要開始學功夫,所以去了「美國武術學院」。那個時候我每天都聽旁邊的人講中文,到了高中我就決定開始學中文。當時我遇到了一位貴人,她是從台北到美國來教書的中文老師,她教的課是我當時最喜歡的課,我每天去她的教室跟好朋友練習。到了高中畢業時,我是全高中中文最好的非母語人士。同時,我第二喜歡的課程是電腦科學,那時候我是程式能力數一數二的學生。後來在成功錄取夢寐以求的學校:臺灣大學之後,我感到雀躍不已,因為我既可以繼續學習中文,也可以持續在世界頂尖的學府中,往電腦科學的方向精進自我。
不過老實說,當我回顧大一的時期,我也曾迷失自我。雖然我修了很多很多的中文課,但是我那時只聽得懂大概一半的課程內容。跟大家對美國人的印象不同,我其實很害羞,也很害怕舉手提問,我甚至不太敢參與社交,所以當時朋友也很少。我開始想家,也變得有一點憂鬱。那時籃球是我唯一的紓壓方式。
但更不幸的是,我在打籃球時弄傷了我的前十字韌帶,做了兩次手術,需要一年半才能恢復。許多的負面情緒壓得我喘不過氣。我被困在人生的低谷,不知如何是好。我覺得我的中文不夠好,我也被診斷出失眠跟ADHD,另外,美國高中的數學太簡單了,來這邊不夠用。種種壓力讓我足不出戶,找不到自己的人生方向。後來,我向臺大心輔中心以及我的心理醫師尋求協助,然後我也開始跟系上有更多互動。有一位教授叫徐宏民跟我說,"Never give up",雖然那時候我覺得這句話太過於簡化了我的問題,不過,在我仔細思考了一個禮拜之後,我下定決心,發誓不讓自己被這些事擊敗。我決定要克盡全力,認真做好每件事。這是我人生的轉捩點,我開始變得異常自律。當時廖世偉教授和洪士灝系主任帶我進入它們的研究室鑽研學術。這重燃了我對資訊工程的熱忱,提醒了我當初會愛上這個領域的原因。我開始研究人工智慧以及區塊鏈,也開始跟其他系上同學交朋友,一起成立臺大人工智慧應用社NTUAI。NTUAI現在是校內頗具規模的技術研究社團,致力於推廣人工智慧給任何對該領域有熱忱的學生。歡迎加入NTUAI,可以掃描我們的QR CODE。
最近,由於疫情的緣故,我已經一年半沒回美國了。但是沒關係,因為我已經找到了我第二個家。我很愛臺大,以及台灣的人事物。雖然我經歷了人生的低潮,但這裡的一切總是給我滿滿的祝福與協助。最後,我想送給大家「功夫熊貓」裡的一句台詞: "You just need to believe"。只要用樂觀的態度去面對困難,就有能力改變自己,甚至改變身旁所愛的人。就像阿波的父親說的,"心誠則靈,只要你相信,點石就能成金。根本沒有什麼秘笈。只有你。"謝謝大家。

==============================
.
President, professors, and classmates, I'm very honored to be here. Thank you to NTU for giving me this opportunity. My name's Seth Austin Harding, and I'm from the D.C. metropolitan area. I'm going to tell a real story that's personal but that's relatable and what I see as the real me.
What motivated and guided me to take my undergraduate studies in Taiwan? When I was very young, I really loved watching kung fu movies, and when I was 10 years old, I went to the theater to watch "Kung Fu Panda". This became my favorite movie as I felt like the story of the main character Po was one to which I could very much relate. After watching this movie, I decided that I wanted to start learning kung fu, so I went to the United States Wushu Academy. At the time, I began hearing Mandarin on a daily basis, so when I was in high school, I decided to begin formally studying Chinese. It ended up being my Chinese teacher from Taipei who was my favorite teacher who taught my favorite class, so I decided I'd hang out in the Chinese classroom every day and practice lots. By the time graduation came around, I had attained the highest proficiency in Chinese among any non-native speaker in my school. My second favorite class was computer science, and I ended up attaining among the best coding skills in my school. After getting accepted to the school of my dreams -- National Taiwan University -- I felt honored, humbled, and excited; I could now spend time at among the world's finest universities studying Chinese and at the same time advancing my knowledge of computer science.
But when I look back at my freshman year, to be honest with you, I didn't know what I was doing. Despite having taken very many Chinese classes, when I went to the NTU lectures, I understood only about half of what the teachers were saying. Contrary to most people's impressions of an American, I was actually too shy to raise my hand, to ask questions, or to even meet with teachers after class, so I had very few friends at the time. I started to become homesick and depressed. At that time, I found that basketball was the only way I knew of relieving my stress. However, while playing basketball, I had torn my ACL and it would take two surgeries and a year and a half in time to fully recover. At this point, I felt caught between a rock and a hard place. In fact, this was the lowest point of my life, and I didn't know what to do. I felt like my Chinese wasn't good enough, I had been diagnosed with insomnia and ADHD, and I felt like the math taught in America was too simple to allow for me to keep up with my classmates. I was under immense pressure, and at this time, I lost any sense of purpose or direction. Later on, I went to seek help from NTU counseling, from my psychiatrist, and from my department. I reached out to Professor Winston Hsu from CSIE, and he told me this: "Never give up"; it was such an oversimplified way to approach such a complex series of problems, I had thought. However, I pondered these words intensely for one week, and by the end of that week, I had made a firm decision. This would NOT be another example of me giving up. I decided to go all out, to work diligently and passionately on all tasks at hand. This was the turning point of my life; I started to discipline myself to a very high degree. At this time, I met my then-to-become advisors Professor Shih-Wei Liao and Professor Shih-Hao Hung and entered their labs to begin research. Finally, the passion that I had for computer science that I had previously held in high school was kindled again, and I was finally reminded why I loved this field. I began my research life in blockchain and AI, and at the time I entered the lab, I also began creating NTUAI. NTUAI is now a large and highly successful NTU club that is dedicated to the research and public understanding of AI. Welcome one and all to join us; please scan our QR code here.
For a year and a half I haven't returned to America because of covid. But not to worry; I have found my second home, away from home. I love it here in NTU and I cherish all of the things I've had the privilege to experience in Taiwan. I've gone through the most difficult of struggles in my life here, but I've also had the most fortunate and blessed of experiences. To conclude, I'd like to quote a line from "Kung Fu Panda": "You just need to believe". As long as you are willing to adopt an optimistic attitude in facing challenges and hardships, you may become a positive force in changing the lives of those around you as well as your own life. It all depends on how you view it; just like what Po's father says, "there is no secret ingredient. It's just you." Thank you, everyone.

接受到全聯福利中心及全聯善美的文化藝術基金會的邀請,參加了一個非常特別的元宵文化活動,從中我學到了有關乞龜文化的知識,以及「知道感恩」在這個文化活動中是多麼重要!
這活動不僅有趣好玩,而且具有教育意義,我也有機會在公開場合、在電視上接受中文採訪!這是一次讓人難以忘懷的經歷,也讓我開始思考我怎麼才能回報這個幫助我這麼多的國家
I was invited by PX Mart and their charity Sunmake Cultures Foundation to take part in a very special cultural event for Lantern Festival where I could learn all about the Begging Turtle Culture and how being able to repay those who looked after you is so important in this culture.
Not only was it lots of fun as well as educational, but I also had the chance to be interviewed in Chinese, in public...on TV! It was an incredibly memorable experience and made me think about how I could possibly ever repay Taiwan for the way the country has looked after me.

Q2:對愛情的看法及態度
現在有兩顆雞蛋,一顆是生的另一顆是熟的,而現在有四個地方讓你放雞蛋,你會將蛋放在哪裡???
