A: I’m feeling much better now after following your advice. What should I do to prevent getting sunstroke again?
B: That’s great news. Remember to wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing. This helps sweat evaporate from your body.
A: Great. I can feel a shopping trip coming on.
A: 聽從你的建議後，我感覺好很多了。我應該做什麼才能防止再度中暑呢？
B: 你沒事真是太好了。防止中暑要記得穿輕量一點的淺色系衣服、要寬鬆一點。這可以幫助汗水從體內蒸發。
A: 太好了。我可以感覺到一趟血拼之旅即將展開。

Most people enjoy the simple pleasure of creating bubbles using soap and water or a handy bubble gun, but have you ever wondered why these bubbles come out in such a uniform, spherical form? The answer delves into the fascinating realm of physics and the special behaviors of liquids. Soap bubbles are formed when air molecules become trapped inside a thin layer of soapy water, giving them a shimmering appearance. As a liquid, the soapy film takes up the smallest possible surface area—water molecules naturally do this to achieve the most stable state. And guess what shape has the least surface
A: Taiwanese athletes won two gold and five bronze medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics, including shooter Lee Meng-yuan, who has now become the World’s No. 1. B: Badminton duo Lee Yang and Wang Chi-lin and boxer Lin Yu-ting won golds this time. A: But Taiwan lagged far behind neighboring Japan and South Korea, which won 20 and 13 golds, respectively. B: Plus, many top Taiwanese players are retiring after the games. A: Isn’t Taiwan planning to upgrade the Ministry of Education’s Sports Administration to a ministry for sports development? That will hopefully boost our national strength in sports. A:
A: Wow, a Taiwanese shooter has recently claimed the World’s No. 1 spot. B: Is it shooter Lee Meng-yuan, who won a bronze in Men’s Skeet Shooting at the 2024 Paris Olympics? A: Yeah, according to the International Shooting Sport Federation’s rankings, Lee has made history by rising to the top. B: That’s so cool. And his bronze was Taiwan’s first Olympic medal for shooting. A: What a sharp shooter. A: 哇，台灣的射擊名將登上世界第一! B: 是不是在2024巴黎奧運射下「男子定向飛靶」銅牌李孟遠？ A: 對，根據「國際射擊運動聯盟」（ISSF）的排名，他最近創造歷史登上世界第一。 B: 真厲害，這也是台灣首面奧運射擊獎牌。 A: 他真是「神射手」。 （By Eddy Chang, Taipei Times／台北時報張聖恩）
Continued from yesterday (延續自昨日) https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/lang When water molecules stick together, this also creates surface tension. This surface tension acts like a stretchy skin that resists outside forces. Meanwhile, the air molecules inside the bubble are pushing outwards trying to escape, but the surface tension pushes back with an equal and opposite force. It’s like a tug-of-war, but perfectly balanced, and this balance of forces is what keeps the bubble together. Bubbles are also easy to burst because their existence all hinges on the thin film. A collision with the ground or a wall can rupture this delicate membrane. Likewise, too much air pushed
