Annie’s Mailbox
Corrections 1 I really loved to read novels. 由上下文推斷,作者欲表達「我喜歡讀小說」,泛指所有的小 說,要用名詞複數 novels 來表示,前面不加定冠詞 the。原 文的 the novel 意指特定的「那本小說」,不合作者語意。 • Joanne likes to grow roses. 喬安喜歡種玫瑰花。 (roses 泛指所有的玫瑰花) • Joanne picked the rose from the garden. 喬安從花園裡摘了那朵玫瑰花。 (the rose 意指特定的那朵玫瑰花)
2 When I was sad, they could make me happy.
敘述「過去發生的事情」要用過去式,因此要把現在式 can 改成過去式 could。can 是助動詞「可以;能夠」的意思, 其後接原形動詞。 • When John studied, he could get good grades. 約翰以前只要有唸書就會考得好。 • Mom could run for an hour when she was young. 媽媽年輕時跑步可以跑一個小時。 • Ed can play many instruments. 艾德會彈奏很多種樂器。

thumb [ q9m ]
forefinger [ `for%f6;g0 ]
接下來,手勢是肢體語言(body language)很 重要的一環,尤其在與別人互動時,常常會用到 一些手勢,其中有些我們看似普通、很常用的手 勢,在別的國家文化中卻帶有負面的意思,若不 多加注意,出國旅遊可是會鬧笑話呢!
Thumbs up usually means ”good job.“ People in the West also use the gesture when they’re hitchhiking.* However, in parts of the Middle East, the thumbs up gesture is very rude. 豎 起 大 拇 指 通 常 表 示「 做 得 好 」。
This gesture means ”OK“ in some countries. However, in certain parts of Central and Southern Europe, it means ”you are nothing.“ It’s also very rude in parts of South America, like Brazil. 這個手勢在某些國家表示「OK」,但 在中歐和南歐某些地區, 它意味著 「你什麼都不是」。在南美一些地方, 像是巴西,該手勢也非常失禮。

* hitchhike [ `h6t]%ha6k ] v. 搭便車
Picture Talk
This means ”victory“ or ”peace.“ However, if you make this gesture with the back of your hand facing outwards,* it is insulting* in some countries. Never do it in England, Ireland, Australia, or New Zealand.
This hand gesture looks just like a telephone. It means ”I’ll call you,“ or ”Somebody is on the phone.“
這表示「勝利」或「和平」。可是如 果 你 手 背 朝 外 做 這 個 手 勢 時, 在 某 些國家是種侮辱,千萬不要在英國、 愛爾蘭、澳洲或紐西蘭比這種手勢。
這個手勢看起來就像一隻電話,它 代表著「我會打給你」或是「某人
* outwards [ `a8tw0dz ] adv. 向外地 * insulting [ 6n`s9lt6; ] adj. 侮辱人的
People use the thumbs down gesture to show disapproval.*
在講電話」。
This means, ”Talk to the hand, because the ears aren’t listening.“ When you don’t want to hear what a person is saying, you use this gesture to tell him to stop. This is a very rude gesture. 這個手勢表示「跟我的手說吧,因為 我的耳朵沒在聽」。當你不想聽某人
拇指朝下表示反對。
說話時,就用這個手勢叫他停下來。
* disapproval [ %d6s4`pruvy ] n.
不贊成
這個手勢相當沒禮貌。
The sign combines* the letters I, L, and Y. It stands for ”I love you.“ 這個手勢結合了英文字母 I、L 和 Y,表示「我愛你」。

When you want to eat, what do you do? Can you imagine1 going into nature and catching your food? Very few people do that these days. On TLC’s Armando’s Asian Twist, we learn how people catch their food. We also see how they use this food to make wonderful dishes. In episode six, Armando visits southern2 Taiwan. He meets some Taiwanese aborigines* in Pingtung. We get to see a lot of Taiwan’s most beautiful scenery. We also meet some of the warmest and friendliest people in the country. These people show Armando how they get their food. They show him how to catch a wild3 pig. They catch shrimp4 from the river. They pick fresh mushrooms* from the trees. They even catch snails.5 Later, Armando cooks with all of these ingredients.* He makes a unique6 dish that is better than the food in a lot of expensive restaurants. Most of us get our food from restaurants and supermarkets. We don’t have time to grow or catch our own food. However, it is nice to go into nature and learn how some people get their food every day. Eating like this isn’t easy, but it’s very fun. The food is much fresher, too! 52

阿曼多到各地收集完食材,回到廚房利用創意將這些元素融 入西方菜,進一步提升食物的風味。
Armando Reed 阿曼多 ‧ 里德 阿曼多的母親是臺灣人,父親是德、西混血,
《中文翻譯》 當你想吃東西的時候,你會怎麼做?你能想像到大 自然去覓食嗎?現在會那麼做的人少之又少。收看旅遊生 活頻道的《帥哥好煮意》,我們見識到人們是如何捕獲食 物,也能看看他們是如何利用這些食材煮出一道道美味的 料理。 在第六集節目中,阿曼多來到南臺灣,他在屏東遇見 幾位臺灣原住民。我們不但可以欣賞到許多臺灣最迷人的 美景,也能看到國內最熱情友善的一群人。 這些人為阿曼多示範他們取得食物的方法:抓山豬、 到河裡捉蝦、從樹上採集新鮮的木耳,他們甚至還去捉蝸 牛。接下來,阿曼多就用這所有的食材,煮出一道風味獨 特的佳餚,這道佳餚比很多高級餐廳的料理還要美味。 我們大多數人是從餐廳和超市取得食物,因為我們沒 有時間去種植或捕捉食物。然而能走進大自然、學習別人 每天如何取得食物是一件挺好玩的事,要像這樣子吃到東 西並不容易,但非常有趣,而且食物也來得更加鮮美!
他在融合各式料理和文化的美國德州長大。由於父 親是美食家,母親又有一手好廚藝,阿曼多從小就 接受美食薰陶,致使他非常熱愛烹飪,加上他長年 在外旅行,嚐遍世界美食,因此他總能從中汲取靈 感,再靠著自己靈敏的味覺和對食物的知識,成功 創造出風味獨特的珍饈佳餚,征服眾人的味蕾。 生日:1980 年 7 月 19 日 身高:185 公分 體重:75 公斤 學歷:美國德州大學數學系畢業 興趣:烹飪、美式足球、閱讀、看電影、
騎單車、健行、攝影

Bii’s father made him work in a factory and a restaurant. Those difficult days helped him not only see his own immaturity* but also cherish* every chance. When Bii came back to Taiwan, he worked very hard. At last, Bii became a new idol singer. Bii’s husky* singing voice is very unique. He also has lots of song writing talent. Bii’s music is sure to bring happiness and joy to his fans.
