Grenada’s Underwater Sculpture Park is a great example of how art can be combined with environmental conservation. __1__ on the ocean floor of the Caribbean Sea, this aquatic gallery was the brainchild of British sculptor and ecologist Jason deCaires Taylor in 2006. The park features sculptures that function as man-made coral reefs, with holes and shelters to attract marine life, thus forming a strikingly beautiful __2__. The sculptures are placed in a way that diverts visitors from nearby natural reefs. This creative approach to ecological preservation demonstrates how art can inspire, educate, and contribute to the sustainability of our environment. The
City life moves fast, and escalators are a lifesaver for busy commuters. __1__ It is widely believed that this practice keeps traffic flowing smoothly and avoids congestion. While on the road, drivers of slower vehicles are required to remain within the outside lane so that those traveling at faster speeds may pass in the inside lane. Similar to traffic lanes that separate vehicles driving at different speeds, this convention on escalators allows for both efficiency and courtesy. __2__ This system reflects an unspoken understanding that facilitates shared use of the space.

臨床表現 (clinical picture)、咳嗽有痰 (productive cough) 與不實消息 (misinformation/ disinformation) 有些醫學用語,如:「咳嗽有痰」,中文一目了然,但對應的英文 productive cough,可能就較難從字面理解。澳洲的 myDr.com.au 解釋 productive cough 如下: A productive (wet) cough is when you have a cough that produces mucus(黏液) or phlegm (痰). 因此 productive cough(咳嗽有痰),就是因為它produces phlegm, 有別於沒有痰的 cough(乾咳),productive cough 又稱為 wet cough (濕咳)。 醫學術語「臨床表現」 (clinical picture) 無論中文、英文,一般人都不易了解。其實, 臨床 (clinical)是「實際觀察及治療,有別於理論或實驗」: . . . pertaining to or founded on actual observation and treatment of patients, as distinguished from theoretical or basic sciences. 譬如:解剖學、生理學是基礎醫學 (basic medicine),內科、外科是臨床醫學 (clinical medicine)。所以,臨床表現就是「直接觀察病患呈現的症狀」。 「臨床表現」英文也可說 clinical presentation 或 clinical manifestation。雖然也有人主張 clinical picture, clinical presentation 和 clinical manifestation 不完全相等,不過所有同義詞都會有不完全等義的問題,在此就不細述了。 網路常有「不實消息」俗稱「假消息」 (fake news) 流傳,「假消息」如果是「錯誤訊息」英文叫 misinformation 如果是刻意「扭曲訊息」則是 disinformation。 防疫必備詞彙:新冠常見症狀 發燒 fever 乾咳 cough 肌肉痠痛 myalgia 四肢乏力 fatigue 咳嗽有痰 productive cough A productive
