200 years of Bicycles
Hi everyone!
騎腳踏車好好玩喔! 你會騎嗎?
I learned how to ride a bicycle when I was in the fifth grade … and I still
ride a bicycle whenever I can!
Using a bicycle is a smart idea. 不用汽油或馬達 … you just need your legs!
Sit on the seat, put your feet on the pedals … push the pedals and go! --
It's pedal power! Amazing! Such a great idea!
So, who had this smart idea? 是誰先發明腳踏車?
Well, the answer is: a lot of people.
The first idea for a bicycle is more than 200 years old! It was made in
Germany. But the first bicycle didn't have pedals … you put your feet on the
ground and pushed the bicycle forward with your legs.
Now, bicycles use pedals, a chain, and gears …. now, you can ride a bicycle
really far and really fast!
腳踏車改變了全世界。 Today, lots of people use "public bicycles."
"Public" means "for people" and … well … you know what "bicycle" means,
right?
A public bicycle is a bicycle anyone can borrow - or rent - for only a little
money. It's an easy and convenient idea!
In Taipei, public bicycles are called "U-Bikes" and in Kaohsiung, they are
called "C-Bikes."台灣到處都找得到腳踏車!
Hey … maybe we don't need so many cars or motorcycles…we can ride bicycles!
Bicycles are clean and quiet … and you can get some exercise when you ride
them, too!
And did you know? Taiwan makes really good bicycles! All over the world,
people love bicycles made in Taiwan. Cool, right?
I'm really glad so many people had great ideas that gave us bicycles! Pedal
power is amazing!

Bat Nail Painting
Hey there, everyone!
Did you all hear the interesting news story about a really rare bat?
這是一種稀有的蝙蝠喔!
Batman: The Dark Knight!
No, not Batman! A bat!
This type of bat is very special, 剩下幾百隻而已. And that's sad, right?
These bats are so rare, that many people thought they were already gone
forever.
But then, a few years ago, the bats were found again!
Now the bats only live in one place, in one cave! 牠只住在一個洞穴裡!
Batman: The Batcave!
No! Not the Batcave!
This cave is in a country called Cuba. And the cave is nice, and comfortable,
and warm, just how the bats like it.
But because there are so few of the bats left, scientists want to keep an eye
on them, they want to check how many there are and track them.
科學家想知道到底還有幾隻這種蝙蝠.
"How do you track hundreds of bats? 追蹤蝙蝠很難吧!"
Batman: The Batsignal!
No!
Batman: The Batmobile!
No!
It's none of those things! The scientists are tracking the bats by painting
their nails! 塗指甲油!
Batman: In black?
No!
They're painting the nails lots of different colors! 這樣才分的情趣阿。
And the best part, is that the paint doesn't hurt the bats!
這種指甲油並不影響蝙蝠的生活. They just look cool!
Hopefully, one day, there will be lots more of these bats!
希望以後會有更多這種蝙蝠. And they can move to other caves, and have little
bat babies, and...
Batman: And fight crime!
(sighs) Ugh.. Sure. 也許可以幫你抓壞人.
