You probably know how much fun it is to go to a park on a sunny day and play frisbee with your friends. But did you know that there are lots of people who are professional frisbee players?
There are a few different kinds of frisbee games. The most popular is called ultimate frisbee. In this game, there are two teams. The people on each team throw the frisbee to the other people on their team until they reach the end of the field. The players on the other team try to catch the frisbee to stop their opponents from moving down the field.
Another game is frisbee golf. Instead of having holes like regular golf, frisbee golf has baskets. Players try to toss the frisbees in the baskets, and whoever can do it in the fewest throws wins. (Marc Langer, staff writer)

你大概知道天氣好時到公園與朋友玩飛盤有多好玩，不過你知道有很多人是職業飛盤玩家嗎？
有好幾種飛盤比賽。最風行的一種叫做「飛盤爭奪賽」，由兩支隊伍相互競賽。同隊的選手要把飛盤拋給同隊對友，直到抵達球場終點。另一隊隊員要試著接住飛盤，阻止對手繼續前進。
另一種競賽是「飛盤高爾夫」，不似標準高爾夫有球洞，飛盤高爾夫有籃子。選手要努力將飛盤拋入籃中，最快將飛盤拋入籃中者就是贏家。 （翻譯：賴美君）

In late 2024, the suicide of acclaimed Taiwanese author Chiung Yao at 86 sparked a societal debate. She expressed her desire to avoid the difficult aging process and sought to govern her own death rather than leave it to fate. Her statements propelled the issue of “euthanasia” back into the public arena, posing the question of whether Taiwan should legalize euthanasia to grant patients and the elderly the right to die with dignity. Euthanasia, the intentional ending of a life to relieve suffering, is legal for humans in countries like the Netherlands and Belgium but remains prohibited in Taiwan.
