Monthly Star

合而 為

When we hear the word SIGMA, most of us think of our boring math classes. Now, this word is going to give you a whole new feeling. It’s the name of a male group.

SIGMA (Σ) is a Greek symbol that means “sum.” This group wants to remind fans that they are displaying the sum talent of three boys, so they call themselves SIGMA. Judy became famous on the show One Million Star. He is good at both singing and dancing. Jett is a smart boy.

He studies at National Tsing Hua University. He really enjoys performing on stage. Tommy is passionate* about dancing, and feels very lucky to be a member of SIGMA. The name SIGMA describes the group’s music perfectly. It’s the sum of many different styles.

In their songs, the group uses words that young people also use. They hope that their songs express the feelings of Taiwan’s young generation.* passionate [ `p1]4n6t ] adj. 熱情的 generation [ %d.5n4`re]4n ] n. 世代

英文名：Jett 生日：2 月 10 日 星座：水瓶座 血型：O 型 身高：178 cm 嗜好：吉他、鋼琴、閱讀、創作

英文名：Judy 生日：8 月 11 日 星座：獅子座 血型：O 型 身高：181 cm 嗜好：唱歌、看電影、打電動、上網

英文名：Tommy 生日：3 月 17 日 星座：雙魚座 血型：B 型 身高：178 cm 嗜好：跳舞、電影、聽音樂

聽到 SIGMA 這個字，我們多半會聯想 到無聊的數學課。現在，這個字將帶給你全 新的感受，它是一個男子團體名。

SIGMA (Σ) 是希臘符號，代表「總和」 的意思。這個團體想讓歌迷知道，他們呈現 出 三 個 大 男 孩 的 才 華 總 和，所 以 稱 為

SIGMA。周 定 緯 因 為《超 級 星 光 大 道》走 紅，能歌擅舞；李杰宇很聰明，就讀於國立 清華大學，他非常享受在舞台上表演；林維 哲 忘 情 舞 蹈，覺 得 自 己 很 幸 運 能 成 為

SIGMA 的一員。 SIGMA 這個字也是該團音樂的最佳寫 照，集結了許多不同的樂風。運用年輕人的 語言為歌曲創作，期望能傳達臺灣 年輕世代的感受。

luxury tax [ `l9k]4r6 ] [ t1ks ]

soap opera

奢侈稅

連續劇（偶像劇）

政府近來因應打房而際出「奢侈稅」條例，除了房屋之外，其

偶像劇內容是許多民眾茶餘飯後的話題，近日「人妻」和「小

他如龜殼 (tortoiseshell)、玳瑁 (hawksbill)、珊瑚 (coral)、象牙

三」的議題更是炒得沸沸揚揚，雖說劇情發展有時令觀眾激動不已，

(ivory)、皮草 (furs) 等物品也必須課徵 10% 的奢侈稅，不難看出

但畢竟是戲劇表演，民眾可別入戲太深，倒是該給演員精湛的演技

政府破釜沉舟的改革決心。至於成效如何，就請大家拭目以待囉。

鼓勵喝采。 與連續劇相關的字詞：

龜殼

＊ plot [ pl3t ] 劇情 ＊ character [ `k1r6kt0 ] 角色 ＊ episode [ `5p4%sod ] （連續劇的）一集 ＊ air time 播出時間 ＊ opening/closing theme song 片頭 尾曲

＊ oar [ or ] 槳 ＊ rudder operator [ `r9d0 ] [ `3p4%ret0 ] 舵手

＊ rower [ `ro0 ] 槳手 ＊ flag-catcher [ `fl1g`k1t]0 ] 奪標手

＊ drummer [ `dr9m0 ] 鼓手

Corrections

修正

1. Being a good friend is . . . 首先，可將「Be a good friend」視為這個句子的主詞，再 來必須把動詞 be 改成動名詞（Being）或不定詞（To be） 才正確。動名詞和不定詞當主詞時皆視為第三人稱單數，所 以動詞也要用第三人稱單數動詞。

4. trust vs. believe trust 「信任」某人的人格或 言行舉止

• Listening to music is my favorite hobby. = To listen to music is my favorite hobby. 聽音樂是我最喜歡的嗜好。

= Talking to my teacher makes me nervous. 和老師講話讓我很緊張。

2. How can you be a good friend? 「疑問詞（如 what/how/where/when . . .）＋不定詞」形 成「名詞片語」，如 how to get there「如何到那裡」，what to buy「要買什麼」，通常置於句尾當受詞用。由於原文沒有 主詞和動詞，不是一個完整的句子，所以應將此句改成 How can you be a good friend? 才正確。

• Where does Amy go to school? 愛咪唸哪間學校？

• I don’t know which way to go. 我不知道要走哪條路。

This is the story of a cook and her darning needle. Every day the needle admired herself. She smiled and thought, “Look at how slender1 and beautiful I am!”

The needle did not like the cook’s fingers. They were so ugly! “You must be gentle with me,” she said to them. “I am so delicate* and pretty.”

However, the cook’s foolish2 fingers were too clumsy.* They broke the needle into two pieces! The cook fixed the needle, and pinned3 it to her blouse.4 “Of course the cook wants to keep me,” thought the needle. “After all, I am one of a kind!”

In special “dark restaurants,” customers eat in complete2 darkness.

These restaurants don’t allow3 lights of any kind. It’s like eating with your eyes closed.

The waiters and waitresses in these restaurants are blind.4 They serve you, and help you if you are having trouble.

Most customers find dining in the dark very uncomfortable. In fact, many people give up right away. However, if you stay, you might have a very special experience.

After a few minutes, you no longer depend on your sight. You start to use your other senses.1 Many people say that the food starts to taste better.

Most importantly, customers gain2 respect for their blind waiters and waitresses. While you struggle,3 they teach4 and protect you. After dining in the dark, you might never see the world in the same way again.

Think About It! 1. 正確答案為：(C) 此題測驗關係代名詞的用法，關係代名詞用來代替前面的先 行詞，並引導出後面的子句，舉例來說：

We need someone who can speak German.   （先行詞）（關係代名詞）

我們需要會說德語的人。 先行詞不同，搭配使用的關係代名詞也就不同，以下整理關 係代名詞的用法： 先行詞

主格

所有格

人

who、that

whose

動物；事物

which、that

whose

句中先行詞是 a poet「詩人」，因此關係代名詞要用 who 或 that。

• Jane was a doctor who/that worked at the hospital. 珍以前是在那間醫院任職的醫師。

• I want a bag which/that isn’t too big. 我想要一個不會太大的包包。

• That’s the man whose novel sold a million copies. 就是那個人的小說熱銷一百萬本。

2. 正確答案為：(A) (A) jump into 「跳進」 Kevin jumped into the pool.

(B) therefore 「因此」 Sandra doesn’t like her job. Therefore, she’s going to quit. 珊卓拉不喜歡她的工作，因此她要辭職了。

(C) but 「但是」 I want to take a vacation, but I need to save money. 我想去度假，但我得存錢。

(D) so 「所以」 It’s really cold, so don’t forget to bring your scarf. 天氣真的很冷，所以別忘了帶圍巾。 由句意判斷，屈原的朋友因為不想讓魚吃他，「所以」丟食 物到河裡，因此答案選 (D)。

4. 正確答案為：(D) 此題 (B) 和 (D) 都可當形容詞，修飾名詞 cities。 Taiwan’s cities are very beautiful. = Taiwanese cities are very beautiful. 臺灣的城市非常美麗。 但當一個句子裡有第二個形容詞出現時，英文慣以此排列 順序書寫：

{

adj. + Taiwanese + N.

（如 beautiful Taiwanese cities）

Taiwan’s + adj. + N. （如 Taiwan’s beautiful cities） 故此題應選 (D) different Taiwanese cities。

凱文跳進池子裡。

(B) walk on 「走在……上」 A spider is walking on the ceiling. 有一隻蜘蛛在天花板上爬。

(C) run across 「穿越；穿過」 Don’t run across the street. It’s too dangerous. 不要穿越馬路，太危險了。

(D) sit under 「坐在……下面」 Henry sat under a tree and read a book. 亨利坐在樹下看書。 依照文意，答案為 (A)。

Japan’s Hidden Secrets 日本野性大地

When we think of Japan, most of us imagine crowded cities and giant skyscrapers.* Japan is famous for its technology and fashion. However, few people are curious about Japan’s natural beauty. If you leave Japan’s cities and begin to explore,1 you’re sure to find some nice surprises.

Japan has high mountains, huge forests, and wild animals. In the north, temperatures drop to below zero. Here, eagles follow fishing boats. They eat fish that fall from the boats’ nets. Brown bears live near the east coast. Some of these giants weigh2 over 600 kilograms.

Their claws* are 12 centimeters3 long.

They hunt deer and fish.

54

Japan also has soldier crabs, mongoose, and deadly snakes. One of the most dangerous snakes is the pit viper. Many of these animals live very close to Japanese cities.

In Japan, pollution4 has caused very serious problems. However, things are changing. Japan now has laws5 that protect nature. As a result,6 the animal population is growing again. For example, 100 years ago, only 33 red crown cranes were left in Japan. Now there are more than 1,000. Japan is a good example for the rest of the world.

If we work hard, we can repair and protect the environment.

【中文翻譯】 想到日本，多數人的腦海會浮現擁擠的城市和高聳的摩 天大樓，日本以其科技和時尚名聞遐邇，但鮮少有人對日本 的自然美景感到好奇，如果你離開日本市區展開探索，必定 會發現一些美好的驚奇。 日本有高山、廣闊的森林和野生動物。在日本北部，氣 溫會降至零度以下，此地的老鷹會追隨漁船，撿食漏網之魚。 棕熊棲息在靠近東海岸的地方，這些大塊頭有的體重超過六 百公斤，爪子長達十二公分，以捕食鹿和魚類為生。

日本還有和尚蟹、貓鼬以及毒蛇等動物，其中最危險的蛇 是龜殼花，上述許多動物的棲息地離日本市區非常近。 日本的污染已造成很嚴重的問題，然而情況在改變。現在 日本有捍衛大自然的法律，結果使得動物的數量再度增加，好 比一百年前，日本境內僅剩三十三隻丹頂鶴，現在則超過一千 隻。日本可作為世界其他國家的借鏡，只要努力，我們也可以 挽救並保護環境。
