News Bites 國中 | Posted on 2019-09-10 | ![]() |
Good afternoon, and welcome to today's episode of News Bites!
I'm Philip Brossard, and I'm Eric Gau
First up, we talk about how a sweet fruit brought a herd of customers to a
store in Taipei over the weekend.
Then we learn about Mexicans standing up to fight for the safety of women in
their country.
And finally, we hear of an idea here in Taiwan to make some train cars into
spaces where people can bring their pets along for the ride.
Stay tuned to hear all about it.
----------------------------
Customers Rush to Buy Imported Mangosteens 人潮湧向市場買山竹
Customers in Taipei lined up Sunday morning to buy the first mangosteens 山竹
imported into Taiwan in 16 years.
To import, 進口, means to buy products or materials from another country.
The government stopped imports of Thai mangosteens in 2003 because of fruit
fly 果蠅 problems.
But after meeting related quarantine 隔離檢疫 requirements, that import ban
was lifted in April this year.
Quarantine is when you keep something away from other things to protect them.
The first batch 第一批 of mangosteens was sold only at one store in Neihu
District.
Even before the store opened, a long line of over 100 customers had formed
outside.
People were given numbers and each one was limited 受限 to two boxes of
mangosteens.
"To be limited" means to have only a certain amount of power to do something.
---------------------------------
Mexicans March to Demand Justice for Violence Against Women
墨西哥人為婦女伸張正義
Hundreds of women have taken to the streets 走上街頭 of Mexico City to demand
justice for themselves.
"To take to the streets" is an expression that means to gather in protest.
They are fighting for young girls and countless 無數 women who have been
attacked, murdered, or gone missing.
"Countless" means there are so many of something that it is hard to know the
exact number.
Mexico is one of the most dangerous countries in the world to be a female.
The coordinator of a Mexican group against femicide 殺害婦女 says Sunday's
march was to point out the government's inability 無能 to prevent, to attend
to or to punish this violence.
"Femicide" is a special word that means to kill women. "Fem" means women and
"-icide" means to kill.
-----------------------------
Petition for Pet-Friendly Train Cars Takes Off 開放寵物友善車廂連署
A petition in support of pet-friendly train cars is taking off.
Thousands of people have signed on to the proposal on a government suggestion
website.
Friendly, 友善, means to be good to someone or something.
Pet friendly, 寵物友善, generally refers to stores or public spaces that
allow people to bring their pets, or that have special services for pets.
The proposal lays out several suggestions, including allowing small pets on
trains as long as they are in strollers, that pets be charged half-price or
have a special pet ticket, and that the owners must carry their pet's
registration and rabies vaccination information on them.
The cars should also be clearly marked as pet-friendly ones so that people
who don't like animals or are allergic to them will know not to enter.
The petition has gathered nearly 3 thousand signatures in ten days.
It requires 5 thousand within 60 days to get an official response.
----------------------------------
Now to review what we've learned today.
Taiwan's first mangosteens 山竹 in over 10 years caused a massive line up at
a store this weekend.
The tropical fruit from Thailand were banned after it was found they had
problems with fruit flies 果蠅.
But they started importing 進口 mangosteens again after meeting requirements
for quarantine 隔離檢疫.
"To import" means to buy things from another country.
Quarantine is when you keep something away from other things to protect them.
----------------------------------
Second, women in Mexico took to the streets 走上街頭 to protect women.
"To take to the streets" means to gather in a group to say an opinion on
something.
Mexico is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a women.
These women want the government to do more to protect women from femicide
殺害婦女.
"Femicide" is a special word that means to kill women.
---------------------------------
Lastly, people in Taiwan are calling for pet-friendly train cars.
Friendly, 友善, means to be good to someone or something.
So here, "pet-friendly" means to make trains that are suitable for pets.
They want train cars where people can bring their pets with them if they meet
certain requirements.
If enough people sign up for this idea, the government will have to talk
about it and make a decision.
And that's it for today!
Catch you all again tomorrow for another episode of News Bites.
