Horse 馬
Years: 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002
年份：民國三十一年、四十三年、五十五年、六十七年、七十九年、九十一年
Just like the snake, you can expect great things from this year. In 2010 horses can use their famous wit and love of crowds to build relationships that will last a lifetime. Try to identify the relationships that you have neglected recently and resolve to improve them — you won’t be disappointed by the results.
Horses are typically very athletic and love the outdoors. Make sure you maintain this good habit in 2010, because you may have a propensity to overeat. One of your weaknesses is your habit of multitasking and leaving jobs unfinished, but if you start a new health program, you should do your best to see it through.
和蛇一樣，肖馬者今年的運勢也很好。可充分利用他們眾所週知的機智與博愛，建立能持續一輩子的關係。可以找找近日疏於聯繫的親友，好好改善你們之間的關係，結果絕不會讓你失望。
肖馬者通常運動細胞很好，而且熱愛戶外運動。二Ｏ一Ｏ年要繼續維持這個好習慣，因為你可能會有過量飲食的傾向。你的缺點之一是習慣同時處理很多事，因此很多工作都沒能徹底完成；若你要展開新的健康計畫，最好能徹底力行。
Goat 羊

Goats are sociable people, but while they like to be in crowds they don’t feel comfortable being the center of attention. Goats are usually happy staying at home and avoid taking risks, but in 2010 you will take a few chances. The bad news is that you will probably make a few bad decisions in the early part of the year. But as the year goes by more opportunities will arise, so learn from your mistakes and use your famous creativity to make the most of these opportunities.
Keep your eyes open for jobs in teaching, hairdressing, acting, illustrating and editing — you will thrive in any of these creative professions.
肖羊者善於交際，雖然他們喜歡與人相處，卻不習慣成為眾人注目的焦點。屬羊的人多半喜歡待在家裡，不喜歡冒險，但二Ｏ一Ｏ年你會碰上一些冒險的機會。不幸的是，今年上半年你可能會做出若干不好的決定。但是到了下半年，會有更多機會出現，所以只要能從錯誤中學習，再善用你眾所週知的創意，就可以抓住這些機會好好表現。
今年可以張大眼睛留意教書、美髮、演藝、插畫和編輯相關的工作機會──你在這些需要高度創意的專業工作上會有很好的表現。
Monkey 猴
Years: 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004
年份：民國三十三年、四十五年、五十七年、六十九年、八十一年、
九十三年
Curious, mischievous and crafty, monkeys are fun to be around and always have some sort of scheme in the pipeline. A word of warning: even though your intentions are good, people can mistake your playfulness for malevolence, which will lead to you alienating a close friend early in the year. When this happens, stay cool and do your best to repair the relationship.
Monkeys rarely get sick and this year will be no exception. So use your energy and vigor to make the most of a business opportunity that will arise. And don’t worry about taking a risk — it will almost certainly pay off!
(JOHN PHILLIPS, STAFF WRITER)
和好奇、調皮和機伶的肖猴者相處總是特別愉快，而且他們似乎老是在盤算著什麼。提醒你一句：雖然你沒有惡意，但別人可能會把你的玩笑解讀為惡意捉弄。年初時可能會因此和好友鬧得不愉快。若真如此，要保持冷靜，盡力修補關係。
肖猴者很少生病，今年也不例外。所以可以把精力和體力善用在即將來臨的商業機會上。不必擔心風險的問題──這一定會成功的!（翻譯：袁星塵）

China commemorated 80 years since the end of World War II last week with a massive military parade against a backdrop of a disputed history about who ultimately defeated Japan. The issues, including Japan’s reckoning with its wartime record in China, are bound to flare again in December, a flashpoint anniversary of the mass killing in Nanjing by invading Japanese troops. Below is an explainer about what the different — and disputed — points of view are. WHAT IS CHINA’S VIEW? For the Chinese government sitting in Beijing, this is a clear-cut issue: China sacrificed 35 million people in a heroic and brutal struggle
Rarely does Nature present such a striking contradiction as the one found in Lencois Maranhenses National Park. Located along Brazil’s northeastern coast, the park unveils breathtaking scenery, where rippling sands meet crystal-clear lagoons. Under the sun’s golden glow, the waters glitter in shades of turquoise and emerald. So surreal is this spectacle that visitors might wonder if they’re gazing at a digitally modified photo rather than a living landscape. Were it not for the unique geographical and climatic conditions, such a marvel would not exist. Unlike typical deserts, Lencois Maranhenses receives a substantial amount of rainfall, particularly during the rainy season
A: Wow, animated fantasy film “KPop Demon Hunters” (KDH) has become Netflix’s most viewed film ever. B: Isn’t that the movie about a K-pop girl group secretly serving as demon hunters?

B: The hit performed by HUNTR/X — the girl group from KDH — has inspired a “Golden challenge,” as celebrities are racing to cover its sky-high notes. A: Cool, let’s try it out. A: 哇，動畫電影《KPop獵魔女團》近日已成為網飛上觀看次數最多的電影。 B: 這部電影不是關於某韓流女團，成員秘密擔任惡魔獵人的故事？ A: 對，主題曲《Golden》更勇奪告示牌單曲榜冠軍呢！ B: 該曲由電影中的女團「HUNTR/X」所演唱，甚至還掀起一股全球《Golden》大挑戰︰一堆名人挑戰翻唱該曲飆高音。 A: 酷喔我們也來挑戰吧。（By Eddy Chang, Taipei Times／台北時報張迪）
In a major step to combat carbon emissions, Norway’s pioneering “Northern Lights project” is set to expand its carbon capture and storage (CCS) capabilities. Backed by energy giants and the Norwegian government, this collaborative project is working to increase its annual carbon storage capacity from 1.5 million to over five million tons. Northern Lights focuses on capturing CO2 emissions from industrial sources across Europe and securely storing them underground. Captured CO2 will be liquefied and transported by ship to the storage facility located off the coast of Norway. It will be injected through pipes into geological formations about 2,600m below the
