Be Careful in the Mountains
Hiking is so much fun! And it's a good way to exercise. More and more people
in Taiwan are hiking in the mountains… Taiwan has so many mountains… and
there are so many places to go hiking! 台灣有很多山,有些很適合爬山、健行。
But… the Taiwan government says people need to be more careful when they go
hiking in the mountains.
Too many people are getting lost... and too many people are getting hurt.
因為有太多人在山裡迷路或是受傷,應該要小心注意。
If you get lost, a helicopter might have to come to find you… it's not easy
to find people with a helicopter. 而且出動直升機在山裡面找人不容易。
And if you get hurt… it might take a long time before they can take you to
the hospital.
The best way to go mountain hiking is with a guide. A guide knows all about
the mountains and can help you not get lost or hurt.
登山健行最好有嚮導,因為他們熟悉當地的狀況,不會讓你迷路或受傷。
Some people think they are smart enough to go all by themselves. "No
problem... I'll just start hiking... let's go...that way!"
有些人覺得自己可以的。
NO! That's a really bad idea!
You need to have the right kind of shoes, you need to have enough water, and
you need to know where you're going... because it's really easy to get lost
when hiking the mountains.
登山健行記得要穿適合的鞋子,帶足夠的水,還要認得路喔!
Hiking is great… but be careful!

Saving Water
This year, it hasn't rained very much in many places in Taiwan.
So far this year in Kaohsiung, it only rained a couple of times...and only
for a short time.
No rain means no water! Taiwan has to start saving water!
今年雨水太少,缺水問題嚴重,要節約用水。
But... how can we do that? Stop taking a shower? Stop brushing your teeth?
(laughs) Of course not! That's silly.
But there are some things we can do. When you wash your hands... you can turn
off the water while you scrub with soap... then turn the water back on.
省水的辦法很多,比如洗手要在洗肥皂後,再開水龍頭沖水。
Same with washing dishes. Turn the water on, get the dishes wet... turn the
water off... scrub the dishes... then turn the water back on and rinse them
off. 洗碗也不要一直開著水龍頭,等要沖的時候再開。
And actually, many people take too long in the shower.
Try this: The next time you take a shower... use a clock or a timer. How long
was your shower? 10 minutes? 15 minutes? That's too long!
很多人花十分鐘或十五分鐘洗澡,太久了!
If you can, try to keep your shower to about 5 minutes!
你洗澡需要多久呢?下次試試看只花五分鐘就好。
Yeah, I know... 5 minutes is not a long time... but we can try, right?
If everyone tries to save even a little water… that can make a big
difference. 每個人都節省一點點,就可以省下很多水!

London.我正在為倫敦之行省錢。But you can't go to London or anywhere this
year. 但是你今年沒辦法去倫敦或任何地方。That's okay. I can save more money.
沒關係,那我可以省更多錢。
2. Take a shower 淋浴。There's a shower room on the
beach.海灘就有淋浴間。Great ! I'll take a shower after a swim in the sea.
