Sports Make You Tough
Hi, students! Do you play sports like basketball? Or maybe you like to play
baseball... tennis... or bowling!
你喜歡打籃球、棒球、網球,或保齡球嗎?
If you do like to play sports, I have good news for you! Playing sports makes
people tougher. It also makes them try harder. And it makes them braver.
運動可以讓人更堅強、更勇敢!
How do I know that? Well, some scientists at an American university told us.
First, they asked people about themselves. They asked them some questions to
see if they are hard workers. They also asked them if they are brave and if
they easily give up.
美國科學家問了一些人覺得自己有多用功、有多勇敢、多不容易放棄。
Then, the scientists looked at the answers to see which people were tough.
After that, they asked them if they play sports. They found that people who
play sports are tougher than those who don't play sports.
他們發現有在運動的人比沒有運動的人還更堅強。
Some people think sports aren't important. But, now you know they are! Sure,
sports help you to be healthy. But they also help you to be tougher and
braver. And they make you more hard-working. If you play sports, you won't
give up easily. All of that is important in life.
運動不只讓你更健康,也讓你更勇敢、認真,這些在生活中都很重要。
So, I think sports could help you be more successful in life, too!

欣賞煙火還是要注意安全
Enjoying Fireworks Safely
We should all be extra careful when buying things online.
A man who lives in Taichung bought what he thought were "fireworks" (煙火)
from an unknown and unidentified source on the famous platform, TikTok,
earlier this year.
Mr. Zhuo paid 500 NT for 20 fireworks.
He took his fireworks outside one night.
As Mr.Zhuo passed by a neighbor's house, he decided to light up (點燃) one of
his fireworks and throw it into the neighbor's house.
This is a very dangerous thing to do, and is against the law.
The fireworks exploded very loudly, and there was a lot of smoke.
Startled by the very loud noise, Mr. Zhuo lost his balance and fell.
Police came quickly and questioned Mr. Zhuo.
He said he didn't know it would be so serious.
他說沒有想到事情會這麼嚴重。
Police also say that the firecrackers Mr. Zhuo bought online were highly
explosive (易爆炸的), and were very dangerous.
Mr. Zhuo is facing fines, and maybe even time in jail.
This story reminds us to be very careful when buying things from unknown
sources online.
Also, fireworks can be very dangerous, and we should all take extra care when
we are close to them.

英國皇室成員將搬家
U.K. Royal Family Moving into Cottage
Where do princes live?
Most of us might think of big stone castles.
But one real-life prince now lives in a cottage (鄉村小屋).
你可以想像英國皇室家族的成員,同時也是皇位的繼承者,搬進鄉村小屋嗎?
Well, that's exactly what Prince William of England did with his entire
family.
The prince, his wife Kate, and their three children, Prince George, Princess
Charlotte, and Prince Louis made the move in June.
The royal family left their life behind in Kensington Palace.
They moved into Adelaide Cottage.
It's a four-bedroom cottage that's about a 10-minute walk from Windsor
Castle, where the Queen sometimes lives.
This way, the family can spend more time with Queen Elizabeth.
And the children will have more outdoor space for play.
The cottage is also a bit more private (隱祕).
When the family lived in Kensington Palace, there were lots of people coming
and going every day.
The children also had a special nanny (保母) to take care of them.
Would you ever consider training to become a nanny to a royal family?

一天最重要的一餐
The Most Important Meal of the Day
We've all heard before that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
But many people still skip breakfast.
Or they just pick up something convenient, on the way to school or work in
the morning.
我們都有聽過早餐是一天當中最重要的一餐,可是有些人還是選擇不吃早餐,或者是隨便在上班、上學的路上買個方便的東西就好。
So what's so important about breakfast?
Think about it this way...
Your body's just woken up from six to eight hours of sleep.
And you need your brain to focus, and your body to work for a whole day.
So here are some foods that can help give your body the boost it needs in the
morning.
You might try having an egg for breakfast.
It is a good source of protein (蛋白質).
They also help you feel full.
This makes them a perfect choice for anyone who needs to have a bite on the
go.
Or you might try some oatmeal for breakfast.
Oatmeal is also full of dietary fibers and nutrition.
The dietary fibers help our digestive system (消化系統).
Oatmeal also helps control and lower the amount of bad fats in our blood.
So, which foods do you often have for breakfast?
And which food would you like to have more for breakfast?

This is a very dangerous thing to do, and is against the law.
Now Mr. Zhuo is facing fines, and maybe even time in jail.
