上班族通病已病入膏肓的我,症狀根本不只Monday blue,根本就是weekdays blue吧 @@" 還是來看一下提振精神的新聞吧!在我心中優雅知性又美麗的凱特王妃終於生啦!!!一直刻意不想知道寶寶性別的新手爸媽終於迎接他們第一個小孩,寶寶的性別可是讓英國媒體猜到要抓狂,結果是個小王子~題外話,我倒是希望伊莉莎白女王快點退位享清福,查爾斯王子都已經當了那~~~~~~麼久的王儲,也該讓他"升上去"了吧!話不多說,來看看這篇燒燙燙的新聞,因為文章也很長,所以就節錄一半嚕!

It's a prince! On Monday, the world welcomed the newest addition to the royal family and the future heir to England's throne. Palace officials confirmed the arrival of His Royal Highness the Prince of Cambridge, born at St. Mary's Hospital at 4:24 p.m. BST, and weighing 8 lbs. 6 oz..

豬彈筆記 [EN] Should Humans Eat Meat?

週末到今天都是大忙錄,但是想到學習不能等,還是努力讓自己補足一點一滴的語言能力吧!!!

節錄這篇在探討人是否該吃肉的文章(好嚴肅的題目啊!!!)算是支持食肉派論點的文章.首先點出人類消化系統的特徵跟草食動物大相逕庭,人類在消化肉的時候對身體成長有正面的影響,且從古至今人主要用來果腹的都是肉....;第二段則點出一些反面的論點,像是為了生產肉帶來的成本還有對環境的影響~蠻有趣的ㄧ篇文章,但是看一看發現單字可能太專門,所以就分享兩小段當作吸收不同觀點嚕!

There is no doubt that human evolution has been linked to meat in many fundamental ways. Our digestive tract is not one of obligatory herbivores; our enzymes evolved to digest meat whose consumption aided higher encephalization and better physical growth. 

豬彈筆記 [EN] Punishments in military scandal may be related to infighting for promotion

來關心一下近日沸沸揚揚的軍中出人命案件的延伸報導(官場甄環傳),不管怎麼樣,一定要把壞了一鍋粥的老鼠屎找出來,讓這些作威作福不把別人的小孩當人的敗類受到法律的制裁!

There is growing speculation that the corporal’s death may be exposing severe infighting within the military. A senior military analyst said that the way the military has handed down punishments for the incident reveals the fierce battle raging for the position of chief of the general staff. 

豬彈筆記 [EN] Yahoo profit rises, but sales are stagnant

今天的文章是關於Yahoo近況的報導,當初Marissa Mayer這個女強人接任CEO的時候讓我眼睛為之一亮(我可能有點女強人崇拜症 @@) 雖然公司整體表現勉強過關,但是她的大刀闊斧以及對於新事業新領域的大膽嘗試還是令人稱許,不過卻也讓人有點擔心,這樣會不會跟海龍王一樣管太寬呀~我覺得像Google這樣選定幾個重點,像Google Maps在市場根本就是橫著走!

A string of acquisitions and corporate changes haven't yet rekindled Yahoo's advertising business.

Yahoo on Tuesday reported quarterly sales that fell slightly short of both Wall Street's expectations and its own results from a year ago. Excluding revenue shared with advertising partners, Yahoo's sales came up just shy of $1.1 billion for the quarter ended June 30, down about 1% from last year. Sales for Yahoo's display advertising (banners and video ads) business dropped 11%.

豬彈筆記 [EN] Typhoon Soulik soaks Taiwan, hits mainland China

 又是睽違好久的補血文章!!!!Yeah~

為了提升荒廢已久(!!!!!)的英文能力,從今天開始偶發"英文我愛你 親密接觸計畫",由酷愛在網路上看莫名其妙英文新聞的豬彈率先開始,盡量選擇日常相關的新聞,從看似簡單但是藏著一些好用單字片語的小文章開始~~其實在跟外國人講英文的時候,要是可以把握簡單而精準的動詞,會讓語意表達得更完整,也才可以避免用落落長的一句話來講一件簡單的事情 :)
