苗族人定居美國的故事: https://bit.ly/3yxYA50
"大批苗族人在70年代以難民身份來美定居,至今美國苗族人口約有26萬。他們集中在美國中西部地區生活,明尼蘇達州正是 苗族社群的最大聚居地,人口逾6.6萬人,蘇妮莎正是出生於該州首府聖保羅巿(Saint Paul)。蘇妮莎的父母正是來美的難民之一,然而雖然成功逃避戰亂,但至今六成美國苗族人屬於低收入階層,超過四分一更屬貧窮階層。"
The only thing our parents knew was to push us to go to school, get an education and go to college. They never thought that us as Asians could do any extracurricular activities without being judged,” said Amy Vang, owner of Little Luxuries Nail Lounge, where Lee got her nails done ahead of the Olympics. “That’s why Suni’s story has touched so many people…It has opened eyes in the Hmong community, to parents, that you can support your children in whatever they want to do and they can become successful.”

➥癌症病人被視為感染新冠肺炎的高危險族群,然而先前關於癌症病人新冠肺炎臨床研究的主要研究限制為樣本數太少或缺乏對照組。
Cai博士和其研究團隊近期的回朔性研究結果指出,於105位感染新冠肺炎的癌症病患和其536年齡,共病史匹配的新冠肺炎對照組中,癌症病患有較高的比例發生臨床嚴重症狀,有較高的風險須進加護病房治療,以及較高的致死率。
此研究證實癌症病人為感染新冠肺炎的高危險族群,其預後比對照組要差,未來需樣本數更大的研究結果來進一步證實。(「財團法人國家衛生研究院」蔡慧如博士 摘要整理 ➥http://forum.nhri.org.tw/covid19/virus/j_translate/j981/ )

[時事英文]亞伯瑞(Ahmaud Arbery)槍殺案
學生有時會問我,為何該探討諸如種族主義等社會議題。答案很簡單。這些議題指出了我們社會的潛在問題,唯有開誠布公的討論與行動,才能解決這些問題。如果我們想建立一個更加包容、公平且進步的社會,那麼我們必須盡可能地將這些棘手的問題攤在陽光底下,面對它們。
Students sometimes ask me why social issues such as racism should be discussed. The answer is straightforward. These lessons point out underlying problems within our society that only open discussion and action can address. If we want a more inclusive, equitable, and progressive society, then we must all to our part to bring these difficult issues to light and face them together.
★★★★★★★★★★★★
《紐約時報》報導:
Ahmaud Arbery loved to run. A former high school football standout, he had been jogging near his home on the outskirts of Brunswick, Ga., when he was shot and killed after being pursued by two white men with guns, according to the authorities. The authorities said he was shot after an encounter with Gregory and Travis McMichael, who had grabbed two guns and followed Mr. Arbery in a truck after he jogged past them.
1. a standout 優秀而顯著的人物
2. on the outskirts of 在⋯⋯的郊區
3. be pursued by 被⋯⋯追趕
4. the authorities 當局;官方;當權者
5. an encounter with 與⋯⋯的遭遇
亞伯瑞喜歡跑步。有關當局表示,他曾是一名高中足球的佼佼者,一直在喬治亞州布倫瑞克郊區的住宅附近慢跑,當時他正被兩名持槍的白人追趕而遭槍殺。有關當局表示,亞伯瑞是在與格雷戈里以及崔維斯遭遇後而被槍殺,他們持有兩把槍,待慢跑的亞伯瑞行經後,遂駕駛一輛卡車尾隨他。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Gregory McMichael told the police that he thought Mr. Arbery looked like a man suspected in several break-ins in the area. The Brunswick News, citing documents obtained through a public records request, reported that there had been just one burglary in the neighborhood since January: the theft of a handgun from an unlocked truck parked outside Travis McMichael’s house.
6. be suspected of 有⋯⋯的嫌疑;被懷疑
7. break-in (n.) 非法入侵;(尤指)入室盜竊
8. public records 公開紀錄;公開檔案
9. burglary 偷盜罪
10. the theft of ⋯⋯的偷竊
格雷戈里向警方供稱,他認為亞伯瑞看上去像多次於該地犯下非法入侵的嫌疑人。《布倫瑞克新聞》藉由公開紀錄的請求引述了相關文件,自一月以來,鄰近地區僅發生過一起竊盜案:有一把手槍在一輛未上鎖的卡車中遭竊,該輛卡車則停在崔維斯家外。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
For two months, the shooting received little attention outside Brunswick. As the coronavirus pandemic dominated headlines and shut down communities around the country, The Times spoke with Mr. Arbery’s friends and family, who were by then concerned the case might quietly disappear in their Deep South community, because social distancing restrictions had made it difficult for them to gather and protest.
11. receive little attention 很少受到關注
12. dominate headlines 佔據了頭條
13. the Deep South 美國深南部
14. social distancing restrictions 社交距離限制令
這兩個月來,槍擊事件在布倫瑞克並未引起太多的關注。由於冠狀病毒的大流行佔據了新聞頭條,以及全國各地社區的關閉,《泰晤士報》與亞伯瑞的親友進行了交談,他們當時都很擔心此案恐於深南地區悄然消失,因為社交距離限制令使他們難以聚集與發起抗議。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
On May 5, a graphic video of the fatal encounter had begun to circulate online. It galvanized an already growing chorus of voices calling for charges to be brought in the case. Recorded from inside a vehicle, it shows Mr. Arbery running along a shaded two-lane residential road when he comes upon a white pickup truck, with a man standing beside its open driver-side door. Another man is in the truck bed. Mr. Arbery runs around the vehicle and disappears briefly from view. Muffled shouting can be heard before Mr. Arbery emerges, tussling with the man outside the truck as three shotgun blasts echo.
15. a graphic video of ⋯⋯的血腥影片
16. a fatal encounter 致命的遭遇
17. circulate online 流傳於網路上
18. galvanize 激起;引起
19. run along 沿著
20. come upon 碰上;偶然發現
21. disappear from view 從視野中消失
22. muffled (聲音)變輕微(或低沉)
23. tussle with 與⋯⋯打鬥;盡力對付
5月5日,此一致命遭遇的血腥影片開始在網路上流傳。它激起了愈來愈多的呼聲,呼籲對此案提告。車內的錄像顯示,當亞伯瑞遇到一輛白色皮卡時,他正沿著一條為陰影遮蔽的兩車道馬路跑步,一名男子站在駕駛側敞開的車門旁。另一名男子則在車斗之中。亞伯瑞行經該車後,很快地於視野中消失。在亞伯瑞出現之前,可以聽到低沉的叫喊聲,伴隨三聲霰彈槍的槍響,並與卡車外的人打鬥。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Travis McMichael, 34, and his father, Gregory McMichael, 64, were charged on May 7 with murder and aggravated assault — two days after a graphic video of the shooting of Mr. Arbery, a 25-year-old black man, became public, and more than two months after the killing itself. The case has generated a wave of outrage and raised concerns about persistent racial inequities in the justice system.
24. be charged with 被以⋯⋯控告
25. murder and aggravated assault 謀殺與加重的企圖傷害罪
26. the shooting of ⋯⋯的槍擊
27. become public 公開
28. generate a wave of outrage 引發憤慨
29. raise concerns 引起擔憂
30. racial inequities 種族不平等
31. the justice system 司法系統
在25歲黑人亞伯瑞槍擊影片公開後的兩天,即案發的兩個多月後,34歲的崔維斯與他64歲的父親格雷戈里,於5月7日被以謀殺與加重的企圖傷害等罪名起訴。此案已引發公憤,同時也加深了大眾對司法體系所固有之種族不平等的擔憂。

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
僕が失くしてしまったもの
離さないで 繋いで 今を抱き締めるよ
カメレオンに騙されて壊れた僕は もう何を失くしたって奪われないよ
不安を脱いで逃避行 慣れないスピードに歪んだ僕の顔を隠せるかな
孤独を嘆く人 挫折を笑う人 歪を嫌う人
誰も怖くなんかないよ ここから見えている真実が過去を満たして
僕が失くしてしまったもの
色が次第に変わって未来に散りばめられたその鮮やかさを
離さないで 繋いで 今を抱き締めるだけ
誰かの答えがこんなに溢れて 並べられていても
誰かの叫びがこんなに溢れて 愛を探している
失くしたものばかりを見つけても
怖くなって 止まって 泣いて
浮かび上がる自分の輪郭を逃がさないで
強く強く抱き締めても
するりするり手にした自信が零れてしまう
それでも光は時々雨に触れて虹を映して僕を照らした
だから今は Stand By You
壊れた者だけが持つ強さを
君に繋いであげるよ 今が鮮やかだろう
Stand By You...
Stand By You
中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
我早已失去曾擁有的所有事物
「不要離開我、留在我身邊,我會珍惜並擁抱現在的。」
受變色龍般偽裝欺騙而受傷的我,已經不會再失去、或被奪去任何東西了
策畫逃離不安的逃脫計畫,但我能夠隱藏,因陌生步伐而扭曲面貌的我嗎?
哀嘆孤獨的人、嘲笑挫折的人、厭惡扭曲的人
不論是誰我可都不會感到害怕,就用當下所看見的真實來彌補過去吧
我早已失去了所有事物
未來仍將漸漸改變色彩,鮮豔地鑲在一個又一個的生動明日
「這次不要再離開我了。」我會緊緊抓住珍惜,並擁抱現在所有
即便來自他人的回應,早已層層排列積累,也僅令人無能為力
來自某人的吶喊,早已堆積滿溢,心中強烈渴望尋求著愛
即使,嘗試尋回失去已久的種種
仍會感到害怕、停下腳步,獨自默默哭泣
但別讓自己逐漸浮現的輪廓就這麼淡淡消逝
無論如何也要用力地、緊緊擁抱守護——
對於終有一日將鬆開的那雙手,手中握有的自信也悄悄流逝
就算如此,仍有溫暖的和煦光芒照入連綿陰雨,向我展現孕育而生的絢麗虹彩
所以現在「我仍會陪在你身邊。」
我會用只有受過傷害才能持有的堅強
尋找並傳遞給你,這份正炫彩奪目的鮮麗力量
「隨時與這份勇氣,伴在你的身旁。」
「我會,陪伴在你的身邊。」
英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
The things I’ve lost
Don’t let go, hold on tight, and embrace the moment now
The me that is deceived and is broken by the Chameleon
already has nothing to lose
and has nothing that can be snatched away
So I discard my anxiety and run away
Will I be able to hide my face
that is distorted by the speed I am unaccustomed to?
A person who laments loneliness
A person who laughs at failure
A person who hates perverseness
No one is afraid, because the reality visible from now on is
merely a consequence of what happened in the past
The things I’ve lost:
the vividness embedded in
a future with its gradually-changing colours
Don’t let go, hold on tight to that
There is nothing else to do now, but to embrace the moment
Even if someone’s answers are lined up so abundantly
Even if someone’s screams are searching for love so desperately
Even if you are to discover the many things you have lost
even if you become afraid,
even if you are stopped,
even if you cry
don’t let go of the silhouette of the person that emerges
Even when I try to embrace the confidence
I’ve just obtained so, so tightly,
it still escapes my grasp so smoothly and speedily.
But even so, the light that touches the rain is sometimes reflected as rainbow – which illuminates me
That’s why now I stand by you
I am passing on the strength that is owned only by a broken person to you
It will surely be vibrant now
