Have you ever gone fishing? Maybe you have gone out by the water's edge to fish. And if you were lucky, maybe your family or some fishermen took you out on a boat one time and let you fish. You might have even been shrimp fishing in an indoor pool!
The most common type of fishing for people around Taipei is probably shrimp fishing. Mostly, you go shrimp fishing at an indoor pool. Some shrimp even have tags or special colors, and if you catch them you win money!
Other fishing normally takes place outside. You could go fishing on a lake, river or ocean. You could fish at the water's edge or on a boat. You could use live bait or lures.

你曾經去釣過魚嗎？也許你曾經到戶外的岸邊釣魚，運氣好的話，可能家人或漁夫曾經帶你上船，讓你過過釣魚的癮，或者，你甚至可能在室內的魚池釣過蝦子！
對台北人來說，最常見的魚釣可能就屬釣蝦，釣蝦多半在室內進行，有些蝦子甚至有標籤或特別的顏色，抓到就有錢賺！

WHAT IS THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ? Lying between Oman and Iran and linking the Gulf north of it with the Gulf of Oman to the south and the Arabian Sea beyond, the strait is 33km wide at its narrowest point, with a shipping lane just 3km wide in either direction. Perhaps the world’s most important energy shipping channel, the waterway is about 167km long. Following through on an old threat, Tehran effectively closed the strait
Have you ever found yourself desperately feeding coins into a claw machine just because you’ve already spent so much trying to win that stuffed animal? Or maybe you’ve continued watching a boring movie simply because you already paid for the ticket? If so, you’ve experienced the “sunk cost fallacy.” A sunk cost refers to time, money or effort that has already been spent and cannot be recovered. This psychological trap is surprisingly common. You might keep playing a video game you no longer enjoy because you’ve invested countless hours in building your character, or maintain a toxic friendship because you’ve known

When you twist open a bottle of carbonated water, bubbles rush out with a hissing sound. This drink is simply water infused with carbon dioxide (CO2) under pressure, giving it that fizz on your tongue. But this basic description barely scratches the surface of the carbonated water family. Although all carbonated waters are bubbly, slight differences set them apart. Seltzer is just plain water with artificial CO2—no minerals, no extras. Club soda includes added minerals such as sodium bicarbonate, which creates a slightly salty flavor. This makes club soda suitable for mixing with fruit juices. Sparkling water, on the
