Lockdown後, 請小心腰圍..........
前幾天去了醫院. 醫生也說, 疫情後, 她大約有1/4的孩童客戶是過重(還是肥胖). 也有些孩子還得了憂鬱症.
這篇文章介紹了跟減重有關的公司:

上面那句話說的挺好. 財測是高層對未來營運做預估的一種方法. 之前放掉一家公司, 就是因為公司的營收預估一直做得不好, 加上也還有比它更好的公司.
🌻上週做的功課與閱讀

中西部真的挺多. 都有在Wisonsin, Minnesota碰到過.
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.”

being with 中文 在 國際狗語日報 X 百靈果News Facebook 的最佳解答
剛剛運動的時候邊聽BBC Podcast,突然聽到台灣公司買疫苗的關鍵字,沒想到仔細一聽報導差點沒吐血。BBC竟然報導台灣政府為了"保住顏面","不願意"購買BNT疫苗。但卻隻字不提台灣所面臨來自中國的巨大外交及軍事威脅。
BBC News 中文(繁體)這麼偏頗可以嗎?
如果要報導中台關係 與其武斷下結論 希望這位記者有機會來台灣了解
BBC News, Taiwan is facing serious military and diplomatic threats from the Chinese government. How can you jump to the conclusion that the government is “RELUCTANT to purchase vaccines” in order to “SAVE FACE”. Isn't your report too biased?
影片是兩個片段合在一起
--以下為原文逐字稿--
Two Taiwnese firms have taken matters into their own hands to buy a large consignment of Pfizer Biontech Covid jabs after the government was reluctant to purchase the medicine because it’s being distributed by a company based in mainland China.
Asia Pacific editor Michael: “Taiwan and China are currently locked in this bitter diplomatic dispute over the future status of Taiwan. China wants it to be part of China. Taiwan thinks it should be independent. That’s the background. So in Taiwan over recent months there’s been a surge of Covid cases, and the Taiwanese government has been desperate to get hold of vaccines. It got AZ, got Moderna. It hasn’t been able to get the Pfizer Biontech. That’s because in that region, in East Asia, it’s been distributed by a Chinese company. Taiwanese government was unwilling because of those reasons I just mentioned to deal directly with a Chinese company. So what’s happened is these two Taiwanese firms stepped in: they bought 10 million doses of Pfizer Biontech vaccines from this Chinese company and they are going to hand it over to Taiwan. They spent 350 million dollars. In effect, these companies have acted as intermediate just so that the Taiwanese government can save face not to deal directly with this Chinese company.
being with 中文 在 浩爾譯世界 Facebook 的最讚貼文
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!

其實是戀愛大師,但謙虛說自己只是曖昧大師的Sam Lin,我準備了幾個問題,來跟他聊聊感情觀,男生的想法真的跟女生很不一樣!例如回訊息的頻率,如果男生不怎麼回妳訊息,肯定是沒那麼喜歡妳,但女生就會覺得是不是還有希望?是我太push了嗎?女生真的是想太多了(笑)
我們也要一起來看看Dcard上的十大渣男語錄,對感情豐沛的Sam來說也覺得很渣,還是其實沒什麼呢?請敬請期待!
節目的最後,送給大家《記得捨不得》,每段戀情都有捨不得的地方,好的回憶就記住它吧!

Welcoming my good friend Sam Lin, who I’ve known for years and always called an expert in dating (LOL), and chit-chatting about our views on dating and relationships. Being super honest and open - what a fun chat filled with laughter!
Don’t miss out the rest of the conversation in the next episode! It just gets better...

Hi everyone! I hope you're safe and well! (下有中文)
I finally decided to edit and upload my Twitch stream VODs. Thanks to the pandemic I have lot more time and lot less income.🥲 I can't really upgrade my PC nor PS4 so the video quality might not be very good. I hope you don't mind!
With that being said, I really enjoy playing this game and it has a strong RE4 vibe which is my favorite of the whole series. I'll upload the full gameplay and hopefully more to come. Thanks for watching and have a great day! 🙏🏻
☞ I speaks Chinese, English, some Spanish and a bit Japanese. I switch language during streaming since there are people from all parts of the world in my chat and I love that! You're welcome to join my live session too!
☞ Live schedule none fix due to the nature of... me🤷🏻♀️ and my job. In case you'd like to join I always post IG/FB story before streaming and I usually stream 1-2 days every week.
