An 安以軒 Yixuan An Yixuan (Ann) has been in many TV shows and movies. She is popular in Taiwan and China. In fact, she is known as the queen of Taiwanese drama. However, few people know that she had confidence* problems as a child.

Ann says that when she was younger, she was an ugly duckling. She didn’t know about makeup or fashion. One time, when someone handed her a love letter, she thought it was for someone else!

With time and effort, Ann has become a beautiful swan. Even so, she remains* true to herself. Some day, she hopes to open a coffee shop and live a simple life.

If you’re unhappy with yourself, don’t give up. You don’t know what you’re capable of* yet. With hard work, you may turn into another beautiful swan, just like Ann!

Annie’s Mailbox 中文翻譯請見第 61 頁

C orrections 修正 1. . . . everybody wants to + V. everybody 是第三人稱單數「每個人」之意，其後的動詞 要接第三人稱單數動詞，所以 want 要改成 wants。類似 用法的單字還有 somebody/anybody「某人 任何人」， 也視為第三人稱單數名詞。

• Everybody thinks Anna is very honest. 大家都覺得安娜很誠實。

4. . . . , and began to explore fencing. explore [ 6k`splor ] 是動詞「探究；探索」之意，英文中沒 有 fencing explore 的說法，推斷作者欲表示「開始深入探 究擊劍」，因此正確說法應為 begin to explore fencing 或 begin exploring fencing。begin 之後若接動詞，可接不 定詞（to + V.）或動名詞（V-ing）。

• It began to snow. 開始下雪了。

• Somebody is in the kitchen. 有人在廚房裡。

• I don’t think anybody in this class studies hard.

• The child began crying because he couldn’t find his toy. 那個小孩因為找不到玩具就哭了起來。

我不認為這個班上有誰是認真唸書的。

2. . . . a movie about . . . 要表達「與……有關」的電影，介系詞要用 about。

• The story is about a little girl and her dog. 那是一個關於小女孩和她的狗的故事。

• We are talking about you. 我們正談到你。

5. try to be better and better better 是 good 的比較級，為不規則用法。推斷作者要表 達「越來越好」，所以用 better and better 來表示較適當。 順道一提，形容詞比較級的規則用法為：單音節字尾加 er/r； 兩個音節以上則在形容詞前加 more。

• Helen’s health is getting better and better. 海倫的健康狀況越來越好。

• Sandy is becoming more and more beautiful.

3. 名詞的用法

珊蒂越變越漂亮。

英文的單數名詞前要加冠詞或所有格，如果沒有限定對象， 冠詞用 a(n)；若有限定對象，則用 the。因為作者沒有特別 說是哪個電視節目，所以在 TV program 前加 a 才對。

• George saw a dog in front of his house. 喬治看到一隻狗在他家前面。

• Connie ate an apple after lunch.

I will try to be better and better!

康妮午餐後吃了一顆蘋果。

• The girl next to my mother is my cousin. 我媽媽旁邊的那個女孩是我表姊。

A little daisy lived in the countryside,1 next to a small path.2 Its petals were white, like the snow. Its center was yellow, like the sun.

The daisy was tiny, but it was very happy. Some of the other flowers were taller and more attractive* than the daisy. Others were more colorful.

However, the daisy was not jealous.3 All it needed was the warm sun.

The daisy looked up at the sky, and saw a bird flying. “I am so lucky,”4 thought the daisy. “I can feel the sun and see the beautiful sky. I am rich!”

Scientists took DNA samples from 101 volunteers.* They looked for a “COMT gene.” They think that this gene controls how generous a person is. There are two types:1 “A” and “G.” Scientists then designed an experiment.2 They told volunteers that they could give money to a poor child.

More than 20 percent of people with the “G” gene gave away all of their money. Only two percent of the “A” people did the same. Therefore,3 scientists believe that there really is a “mean gene.”

Some of these scientists are very optimistic.* One of them hopes that the new forests will equal6 the size of Russia! These forests would be spread out all over the world.

Of course, restoring* forests is important. However, it’s more important to protect the forests that we have now. If you want to see how this project turns out, you’ll have to be patient. It will take more than 30 years. 參考單字》

Google World 透視內幕：Google

 photo by Stuck in Customs

It is one of the world’s largest Web sites, and it’s getting bigger. Every day, it handles twenty petabytes* of data. How much is that? It equals 130 billion photographs, or five billion songs. Its profits1 are huge, and its founders are very rich. You already know this company, and you probably use it all the time. We’re talking about Google.

Of course, not everyone loves Google. Some people worry about information privacy.3 They worry that governments will know everything that people do and say. Google has been trying to deal with these concerns. Its slogan,4 “Don’t be evil,” is meant to calm critics.5 However, many people are still doubtful.6

People use Google for all kinds of things. You can use it to apply2 for a job, check tomorrow’s weather, or read the latest news. In fact, Google can find nearly anything! It’s more than just an Internet giant. It has changed the way we work, shop, and live.

Google has big plans. It wants to make all of the world’s information available to everyone. It’s a difficult goal; Google’s founders expect it to take more than 300 years!

小雛菊的故事

12

有朵開在鄉間小路邊的小雛菊，它有著如白雪般的 Tue 花瓣，以及如太陽般的黃色花蕊。 這朵雛菊雖然嬌小，但總是很快樂。其他有些花比小雛 菊高更高、更吸引人，有些色彩也比較繽紛。然而，小雛菊 一點都不嫉妒它們，溫暖的陽光就是它所需的一切。 小雛菊仰望天空，看到一隻小鳥飛翔，它心想：「我何 其幸運，可以感受陽光、欣賞美麗的天空。我好富有！」

13

小雛菊看著那隻鳥，心想：「牠一定會拜訪其他的 Wed 花朵，因為它們好美。」但那隻鳥卻來到小雛菊身邊、對它 歌唱。小雛菊好開心。 過一會兒，兩個男孩追著這隻小鳥，並把牠抓起來關進 籠子裡。小雛菊心想：「真遺憾，但願我可以陪著牠，讓牠 好過一點。」 小鳥在籠子裡唱著悲傷的歌曲，男孩們拔起小雛菊，也 把它放進籠子裡。

小孩專屬的兒童節 p. 48 很多人認為當小孩比較輕鬆，畢竟，大人必須處理工 作、金錢還有其他所有的事情，對吧？不過，當小孩有時並 不容易，小孩要擔心考試成績、教育以及和同學相處的種種 問題。這就是為什麼會有兒童節，大人可以藉由這個節日對 孩子表達關愛和支持。 在臺灣，兒童節是四月四日。當天，某些商家和城市會 舉辦小孩們喜愛的活動；學校以往會在這天表揚模範生，不 過已成絕響，因為二〇一一年起，兒童節放假一天！ 兒童節不只是臺灣的節日，世界各國皆會慶祝。

p. 49 兒童節的傳統因「國」而異，慶祝的方式和日期也不一 樣；不過，用意往往相同，那就是父母要強調他們的孩子是 最特別且最重要的。 有很多方法可以表達對兒童的愛與尊重，讓我們來看看 這些習俗。在泰國，小孩可以免費參觀動物園；埃及有為小 孩特別舉辦的園遊會和遊戲；在日本，小孩會放風箏和品嚐 傳統點心；在印度，人們為貧童籌募資金。 今年的四月四日，花點時間慶祝吧。大人可以多寵愛孩 子一點，而小孩也別忘了要珍惜自己的童年時光。畢竟，童 年不是永遠的！

Cheapness: It’s in Your Genes

小心！「小氣基因」就在你體內 p. 50 你是否有朋友在餐廳從不買單？他對每分錢都斤斤計 較？而且總向你借東西？這些是不良習慣，不過這可能不是 他的錯，那該怪誰呢？就怪 DNA 吧！ 德國科學家發現一種「吝嗇基因」，這種基因讓某些人 變得小氣，且他們難以控制自己小氣的行為。事實上，他們 可能甚至不知道自己是小氣鬼。然而，有百分之二十五的人 體內可能有「吝嗇基因」。 有該基因的人比較不會借錢給別人、買昂貴的禮物或捐 錢給貧窮人士。科學家如何發現「吝嗇基因」？他們研發出 一些非常有趣的測試。

p. 51 科學家採集了一○一位自願者的 DNA 樣本，他們在找一種 「COMT 基因」，認為該基因左右一個人慷慨與否。該基因分為 兩種類型：「A 型」和「G 型」。 科學家接著設計一項實驗，告訴自願者他們能捐錢給一位 貧窮的小孩。超過百分之二十擁有「G 型」的自願者把錢全都 捐出去；而擁有「A 型」的自願者，則只有百分之二的人這麼做。 因此，科學家相信「吝嗇基因」的確存在。 不幸的是我們無法治療這個症狀，你那小氣的朋友可能總 是堅持去便宜的餐館或拒絕付帳，這時候耐心點，不要和他爭 論太多，因為他可能有「吝嗇基因」！
