昨天晚上騎著摩托車,等著紅綠燈跟月亮對望的時候,心裡冒出了"靜靜的滿月"這一句話. 讓我想到以後每年就趁中秋節來更新一下 【那些大人讀了比孩子感受更深的繪本】 好了.
閱讀英文繪本不只增加我們(不管是孩子還是大人)對英文學習的興趣,它也常深刻了我們對人生總總的經驗和感受. 人生是場單程車票的旅行,沿途的風景錯過就不再,所以我們都要抱著感恩和珍惜的心,用 心 感受周遭的一切,用 心 過生活. 願有天回首來時路時,我們都可以跟自己說: "這輩子我真的不虛此行,不枉此生."

這讓我想到席慕蓉的【無怨的青春】,我們不只要有無怨的青春,還要有無怨的人生,這樣到了人生的終點站時我們都能了無遺憾地跟自己說再見......
*註: 席慕蓉 - 無怨的青春
在年輕的時候,如果你愛上了一個人,請你請你一定要溫柔地對待他。
不管你們相愛的時間有多長或多短,若你們能始終溫柔地相待
那麼,所有的時刻都將是一種無瑕的美麗。
若不得不分離,也要好好地說聲再見
也要在心裡存著感謝,感謝他給了你一份記憶。
長大了以後,你才會知道,在驀然回首的剎那
沒有怨恨的青春才會了無遺憾,如山岡上那輪靜靜的滿月。

#IELTSSPEAKING PART 3 - EFFECTS [Kèm PDF]
🎗Can hobbies have negative effects?
Yes. I think if you spend too much time on your hobbies, it can affect other aspects of your life. For example, if one of your hobbies is playing games, and you spend hours playing Plants vs. Zombies or Angry Birds, then you will have little time for your studies and your social life. Another example is if you love watching movies, and after a hard day at work, instead of doing exercise, you spend all evening watching your favourite films, which is really harmful to your health. So, I think whether a hobby has negative effects or not depends on how we spend time doing it.
Sở thích có thể có tác động tiêu cực không?
Có chứ ạ. Tôi nghĩ rằng nếu bạn dành quá nhiều thời gian cho sở thích của mình, nó có thể ảnh hưởng đến các khía cạnh khác trong cuộc sống của bạn. Ví dụ: nếu một trong những sở thích của bạn là chơi game và bạn dành hàng giờ để chơi Plants vs. Zombies hoặc Angry Birds, thì bạn sẽ có ít thời gian cho việc học và đời sống xã hội của mình. Một ví dụ khác là nếu bạn thích xem phim, và sau một ngày làm việc mệt mỏi, thay vì tập thể dục, bạn dành cả buổi tối để xem những bộ phim yêu thích, điều này thực sự có hại cho sức khỏe của bạn. Vì vậy, tôi nghĩ rằng một sở thích có ảnh hưởng tiêu cực hay không phụ thuộc vào cách chúng ta dành thời gian thực hiện nó.
🎗What effects do you think humans have on wild animals?
I think human activities have great impacts on wildlife. First, we are destroying their habitats by burning or clearing forests for agriculture or tourism. Thousands of wild animals have died, and some species have become extinct because of habitat destruction. Second, lots of wild animals are suffering because of illegal hunting and poaching. For example, we can see many videos or pictures about rhinos losing their horns, wild elephants losing their tusks or leopards being killed for their fur.
Bạn nghĩ con người có ảnh hưởng gì đến động vật hoang dã?
Tôi nghĩ rằng các hoạt động của con người có tác động lớn đến động vật hoang dã. Đầu tiên, chúng ta đang hủy hoại môi trường sống của chúng bằng cách đốt hoặc phá rừng làm nông nghiệp hoặc du lịch. Hàng ngàn động vật hoang dã đã chết, và một số loài đã bị tuyệt chủng vì hủy hoại môi trường sống. Thứ hai, rất nhiều động vật hoang dã đang phải chịu đựng vì nạn săn bắn và săn trộm bất hợp pháp. Ví dụ, chúng ta có thể thấy nhiều video hoặc hình ảnh về những con tê giác bị mất sừng, những con voi hoang dã bị mất ngà hoặc báo bị giết để lấy lông.
🎗What effects does new technology have on employment?
I think the effects of technology on employment are both negative and positive. In terms of the positive, thousands of jobs have been created, and many people have benefited from it, such as web developers, web designers or IT engineers. Therefore, it has helped improve their living standards. However, lots of people, especially those who do manual work, are faced with unemployment because their work has been replaced by machines or modern technological devices.
Công nghệ mới có ảnh hưởng gì đến việc làm?
Tôi nghĩ rằng những tác động của công nghệ đối với việc làm vừa mang tính tiêu cực vừa tích cực. Về mặt tích cực, hàng ngàn việc làm đã được tạo ra và nhiều người đã được hưởng lợi từ điều này, chẳng hạn như các nhà phát triển web, thiết kế web hoặc kỹ sư CNTT. Do đó, nó đã giúp cải thiện mức sống của họ. Tuy nhiên, rất nhiều người, đặc biệt là những người làm công việc thủ công, phải đối mặt với thất nghiệp vì công việc của họ đã được thay thế bằng máy móc hoặc các thiết bị công nghệ hiện đại.
🎗What effects has modern technology had on the way food is produced?
I think technological advances have great impacts on food production. Millions of tonnes of genetically modified foods are produced every day. These foods are more resistant to diseases than foods produced in a traditional way. And thanks to breeding technologies, some plant species have been saved from extinction. But we also need to think about the negative effects of technology on food production. These days, the overuse of chemical pesticides and fertilizers is one of the main reasons for the increase in cancer and other fatal health problems.
Công nghệ hiện đại có ảnh hưởng gì đến cách thực phẩm được sản xuất?
Tôi nghĩ rằng những tiến bộ công nghệ có tác động lớn đến sản xuất thực phẩm. Hàng triệu tấn thực phẩm biến đổi gen được sản xuất mỗi ngày. Những thực phẩm này có khả năng kháng bệnh tốt hơn so với thực phẩm được sản xuất theo cách truyền thống. Và nhờ các công nghệ nhân giống, một số loài thực vật đã được cứu khỏi sự tuyệt chủng. Nhưng chúng ta cũng cần nghĩ về những tác động tiêu cực của công nghệ đối với sản xuất thực phẩm. Ngày nay, việc lạm dụng thuốc trừ sâu và phân bón hóa học là một trong những lý do chính làm tăng ung thư và các vấn đề sức khỏe gây tử vong khác.
🎗What effects can watching television have on children?
I think that watching TV can have both positive and negative effects on children. By watching educational TV programmes, such as the Discovery Channel or BBC’s Planet Earth, children can learn more about the world they live in. Watching TV can also help them develop their imagination and creativity, which are essential skills for their future careers. However, if they spend too much time watching TV, they will have less time for their studies, and this could affect their academic results. Also, sitting for too long in front of the screen is harmful to their health.
Việc xem truyền hình có những ảnh hưởng gì đối với trẻ em?
Tôi nghĩ rằng xem TV có thể có cả tác động tích cực và tiêu cực đến trẻ em. Bằng cách xem các chương trình truyền hình giáo dục, chẳng hạn như Kênh Discovery hoặc BBC Trái đất, trẻ em có thể tìm hiểu thêm về thế giới mà chúng đang sống. Xem TV cũng có thể giúp chúng phát triển trí tưởng tượng và khả năng sáng tạo, đó là những kỹ năng cần thiết cho sự nghiệp tương lai của chúng. Tuy nhiên, nếu chúng dành quá nhiều thời gian để xem TV, chúng sẽ có ít thời gian hơn cho việc học và điều này có thể ảnh hưởng đến kết quả học tập của chúng. Ngoài ra, ngồi quá lâu trước màn hình có hại cho sức khỏe của trẻ.

God Has Good Plans for your Life
“A man’s heart plans his course, but Yahweh directs his steps.” (Proverbs 16:9 WEB)
People like to plan out their lives, and even assume about things decades from the current time.
However, in the verse above, we see that while man plans his course (a trajectory of days, months, and years ahead), the Lord directs his steps, which implies a much shorter timeframe—like a day by day pace.
The truth is, we do not even know what will happen to us a few minutes from now. We can only live one step at a time.
God’s word is a lamp to our feet, showing us the immediate way ahead, but not the whole road.
In this mortal lifetime, there will always be a need for faith.
As Jesus said, each day has enough worries of its own. You were not made to live in stress over your future.
As a child of God, you have a Heavenly Father who loves you. He feeds the birds of the air, and not one of them falls to the ground without His knowledge. He even numbers the hairs on your head.
The God who personally knows all the stars by name, is also concerned when you are heartbroken. So much power and responsibility, and yet He does not dismiss the trivial details in our lives.
Life never turns out exactly as we think it will, but we can trust that all the things that happen to us will work together for good. God makes everything beautiful in its time, and that includes your life!
“God’s Appointed Time” is about His system of times and seasons—the method by which He plans every purpose under Heaven. Flow with God’s way of doing things and you will enjoy restful increase and be like a tree that produces good fruits in its season: https://bit.ly/god-appointed-time

The Eumundi Market was lovely to spend the afternoon with the family. Was my first time so close with a bird, but i guess parrots are okay - I'm really just terrified of pigeons and long beaked birds. It was such a hot afternoon in Queensland and I remember falling asleep so often in the car.
We also took a trip to Maple street at Melany. Don't we all always love supermarkets abroad? Bought some stuff for dinner and called it a day. I'd recommend this route for those who is travelling Queensland for leisure and isn't rushing. Our BNB was great too, just about 15-20 mins away from these spots.
Hope you enjoyed today's vlog

Check out the differences of Orchard Road in Singapore during COVID19 Phase 1 and Phase 2.
Music by David Meraki: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI-ShiSbaApBfnKdgVaSWsQ
Fun Facts:
Orchard Road is a famous street in South East Asia, and increasingly across the world. Adorned with stores, malls, eateries and sites, the 2.2km strip is a paradise delight for shoppers and tourists alike. But there are a few things about Orchard Road that are little known, and adding these to your bank of knowledge could quite impress whoever you choose to stroll down the famed boulevard with. It’s not all about shopping and consumerism, there’s a lot more to this historic street in the Lion City.
1. If you perchance to stroll down Orchard Road between around 6:30 to 8:30pm, you may notice that the human species is somewhat outnumbered by another; hundreds and hundreds of birds flock to the famed shopping street in the evening, The Birds
If you perchance to stroll down Orchard Road between around 6:30 to 8:30pm, you may notice that the human species is somewhat outnumbered by another; hundreds and hundreds of birds flock to the famed shopping street in the evening, and their singing of sunset songs can actually become quite a racket. But why are there so many birds? Singapore is actually located right on course of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway – the migrating path of thousands of birds, and the island is an essential stop for the birds to refuel – and what a place to do it! Munching on leftover food, and singing from the many treetops that line the streets are four different species of birds; the Asian Glossy Starling, the Javan Myna, the house crow, and the rock pigeon.
But their presence comes with an unsightly catch – the poop. Executive Director of the Orchard Road Business Association, Steven Goh, is expending much effort and a lot of resources to keep the boulevard clean. For example, up to 3’000 litres of water every night is used to pressure clean the street and rid it of bird poop.
1. What’s in a Name?
The name Orchard Road actually originates from where you might think – it was once lined with orchards! Early in the 19th century it was home to Pepper and Gambier plantations, which years later gave way to Nutmeg and Fruit Orchards.
It’s rumored that a “Mr. Orchard” used to own some of the land at the corner of present-day Scotts Road and Orchard Road, and as lovely as that might be, there doesn’t seem to be much evidence to support it.
1. What Once Was…
As well as fruitful orchards (that sadly diminished mostly due to disease), Orchard Road was also once the location of three cemeteries; a Chinese cemetery, a Sumatran cemetery, and later on, a Jewish Cemetery.
By the 1860’s there were many private houses on Orchard Road, and in the early 1890’s, King Chulalongkorn, King of Siam, acquired “Hurricane House”. Later two pieces of property were added on, and it is now the site of the Royal Thai Embassy, at 370 Orchard Road.
The early 20th Century saw Orchard Road as home to a number of different things including fresh produce markets, car parks, the Orchard Road Railway and the Glutton’s market – where locals would wait for the clock to hit 5pm before setting up a number of stalls selling local cuisines and goodies.
And then in 1958 the Orchard Road that we know now began, with the opening of CK Tang’s Department store – the first and longest-running of its kind on the strip.
1. A Secret Street
Just a hop behind the glamourous Orchard Road, is another awe-inspiring street, but not for any of the same reasons.
Emerald Hill is a little street of terraced houses that feels as though it’s been frozen in time – a stunning display of Chinese Baroque architecture, this little street definitely deserves a little of your time away from Orchard Road.
What was once a nutmeg plantation (which sadly failed due to disease) has since become the home of many-a-wealthy Singaporean, and has even been the mystical setting for many short stories written by pioneer of Singaporean Literature Goh Sin Tub.
