見見老鼠凱薩琳和大象馬克。凱薩琳非常勇敢又喜歡冒險，但馬克的個性十分害羞，對許多事情都感到害怕。不過，朋友都喜歡黏在一塊兒，所以凱薩琳走到哪兒，馬克就會跟到哪兒。有時候，他們也會碰上非常棘手的情況...
A walk in the park 公園漫遊記
“I love England!” Kathleen declared. “Everything is so fresh and beautiful.”
Mark and Kathleen were strolling through Windsor Great Park.
“It is a lovely park,” Mark said.
“And so big! Over 20km2! Look at all these amazing trees!” Kathleen shouted. Just then they turned a corner and found themselves at the top of a slope covered with flowerbeds full of pink flowers.
“Wow! They must have taken ages to plant!” Mark said.
Mark and Kathleen stopped to take a photo under a towering totem pole.
“I wonder how that got here?” Kathleen wondered.
The pair continued on their way. They passed a beautiful waterfall and took some more photos. They soon came across a ruined temple.
“Look Mark! A Greek temple!”
“What on earth is that doing here?” Mark asked.
“It must have been brought over from Greece,” Kathleen replied. “It’s amazing. I really want to get a closer look. We can take a great photo in the middle. Let’s climb over those railings.”
“I don’t think that’s such a great idea,” Mark said, but it was too late. Kathleen had slipped through the railings...

「我愛英國！」凱薩琳大聲宣告：「一切都這麼新鮮、美好。」
馬克和凱薩琳在溫莎大公園漫步。
馬克說：「這是個漂亮的公園。」
凱薩琳叫嚷：「而且好大唷！超過二十平方公里耶！看看這些樹多美啊！」接著，他們轉過個彎，發現自己站在一個斜坡頂端，放眼望去盡是一片粉紅色的花海。
馬克說：「哇！種植這些植物一定很花時間！」
馬克和凱薩琳停下腳步，在一根高聳的圖騰柱下合影留念。
凱薩琳不禁納悶：「不知道那怎麼是怎麼運過來的？」
然後兩人又繼續往前走，他們經過一個壯觀的瀑布時又拍了一些照片；不久他們便來到一個神殿的廢墟。
「馬克，你看！一個希臘式神殿！」
馬克問：「這為什麼會出現在這裡？」
「這一定是從希臘弄過來的，」凱薩琳回答：「好不可思議喔，我真的很想走近一點去看，我們可以在中間拍一張很棒的照片，我們攀過那些柵欄吧！」
馬克說：「我覺得這樣不太好耶。」但是為時已晚，凱薩琳已經翻過柵欄溜進去了...

The UK government has unveiled plans to lower the national voting age from 18 to 16, a transformation set to take effect in the next general election. With youth turnout at historic lows, the reform is framed as a way to reengage younger citizens and restore trust in the political process, though reactions remain divided. Just as the UK reduced the voting age to 18 in 1969, the current proposal reflects evolving conceptions of civic maturity. If 16-year-olds can work and pay taxes, advocates contend, should they not also have a say in shaping the laws they follow? Supporters also believe
Russian figure skater Petr Gumennik has been forced to change his short program music two days before the men’s program at the Milan Cortina Olympics after joining a growing list of figure skaters dealing with copyright issues. Gumennik, who is participating as a neutral athlete at the Winter Games, had been working all season to music from “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer,” a psychological thriller film. But the 23-year-old Russian national champion learned in the last few days that he did not have proper permission to perform to the music, leaving him in limbo as the Winter Games began. Given such

Continued from yesterday（延續自昨日） https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/lang By now, it’s clear that pigs are not what we imagine them to be. But the surprises don’t end here. These creatures also carry traits that further defy common stereotypes. Take their noses, for example. A pig’s sense of smell is so keen that it can detect truffles, rare and expensive fungi buried deep underground. Farmers in Europe once relied on pigs to sniff out these culinary treasures, though dogs are now preferred because pigs are often tempted to eat what they find. Pigs also see the world in a unique way. With their eyes positioned
