Have you ever seen a mechanic working on a car in his shop? Maybe your dad or another relative likes to work on his car. Now a Japanese company is going a step further. You can build their car yourself.
Japanese company Mitsuoka Motor will sell a kit-car they call the K4, a stylish and cute car with a 50cc engine. The car comes in five different colors.
The K4 can go up to 50km an hour, so you need a license to drive it.
To build the car you need to assemble over 500 different parts with some special tools that come with the car.
If you work fast, you can put the car together in 40 hours, but it will probably take at least three or four days.
If you want to build this car, you will have to pay Mitsuoka 756,000 yen (NT$210,000). But to car lovers, it might be worth it.

你曾經看過黑手在自己的店裡修車嗎?也許你的父親或其他親戚喜歡在自己的車子敲敲打打。但現在一家日本公司更進一步,讓你能自己拼裝他們出產的車。
日本光岡汽車將販售一台叫K4的組裝車,它時髦、可愛,且配有50cc的引擎。K4一共有五種顏色。
K4最高時速可達五十公里,所以你需要有駕照才能駕駛。
要組裝這台車,你需要用隨車附贈的特殊工具,才能拼起超過五百個零組件。
如果你速度夠快,四十個小時內就能組裝完畢,但至少會耗上三到四天。
你如果想組裝這種車輛,必須付光岡汽車七十五萬六千日幣(新台幣二十一萬元),不過對車迷來說,卻是樁划算的買賣。

Some 400 kilometers above the Earth’s surface, the “International Space Station” (ISS) operates as both a home and office for astronauts living and working in space. Astronauts typically stay aboard the station for up to six months and engage in groundbreaking research projects in various fields, such as biology, physics and astronomy. These projects help scientists understand life in space and contribute to advancements that benefit people on Earth. The ISS has experienced significant growth since construction began in 1998. The station’s design and assembly represent an extraordinary international collaboration among Canada, the European Union, Japan, Russia and the United States.

The UN Ocean Conference wrapped up in Nice, France on Friday last week with world leaders taking major steps toward marine protection and vowing a showdown when nations meet to negotiate rules for deep-sea mining next month. But a lack of funding pledges and the total omission of fossil fuels disappointed some observers. The summit was just the third — and largest yet — dedicated entirely to what the United Nations calls an “emergency” in the world’s oceans. The High Seas Treaty, or Global Ocean Treaty, is also known as the Agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law
Continued from yesterday(延續自昨日) https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/lang Living on the ISS is challenging due to the absence of gravity. Astronauts must strap themselves into sleeping bags to prevent floating away while they sleep. They also spend about two hours exercising daily using specialized equipment. Despite this, microgravity can cause muscle loss, bone density reduction and cardiovascular changes. As a result, astronauts require extensive rehabilitation upon their return to Earth. In spite of these difficulties, astronauts often describe their experience on the ISS as life-changing. One of the most awe-inspiring aspects of living aboard the space station is the unparalleled view of Earth. Traveling at
