Taiwanese judoka Yang Yung-wei made history in July by winning a silver medal in the men’s 60kg judo at the Tokyo Olympics. Now, the sports hero made history again, becoming the first Taiwanese judoka to take the world’s No. 1 in the men’s 60kg category, according to the latest rankings released last month by the International Judo Federation.
Yang has displaced 2021 World Judo Championships gold medalist Yago Abuladze of Russia, followed by Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Naohisa Takato of Japan at No. 3. Yang once said that becoming the world’s No. 1 and winning an Olympic gold medal are his biggest goals. When asked which one he wanted to achieve more, he answered that he was determined to accomplish both.
With his outstanding performance in sports, the 24-year-old athlete of the Aboriginal Paiwan people was named one of the “10 Outstanding Young Persons” in Taiwan this year. The 59th 10 Outstanding Young Persons Awards ceremony took place in Taitung County last month.

台灣柔道男神楊勇緯於七月創下歷史，在東京奧運柔道男子六十公斤量級勇奪銀牌。現在這位體育英雄又再創歷史，根據國際柔道總會上個月新公布的積分排名，他已榮登男子六十公斤量級世界第一，成為台灣首位登上該寶座的柔道選手。
楊勇緯榮登積分榜首，也將今年柔道世錦賽金牌得主、俄羅斯名將亞布拉基擠到第二，東奧金牌得主、日本名將高藤直壽則排名第三。楊勇緯曾公開宣誓他的兩大目標，就是登上世界第一並奪下奧運金牌。當被問到比較想達成哪個目標，他當時回答兩個都要。
由於他在運動方面優異的表現，這位二十四歲排灣族青年更榮獲
「十大傑出青年」的殊榮，第五十九屆「十大傑出青年」頒獎典禮已於上個月在台東縣舉行。

Did you hear the news about Wang’s marriage breakup? (5/5) 你有聽說老王要離婚的消息嗎？（五） A: Wang’s marriage dispute has finally come to an end. B: You’re still gossiping about it. Why are you so interested in his marital affairs? A: It’s just a healthy dose of curiosity. B: There’s an old saying: “Even a great judge finds it hard to settle a family quarrel.” So outsiders should keep their noses out of private family matters. A: 老王的婚姻糾紛終於要落幕啦。 B: 你還真八卦，那麼關注他離婚的消息。 A: 我很好奇嘛，這不就是人們的天性嗎？ B: 俗話說：「清官難斷家務事。」這是人家夫妻之間的家務事，外人還是少插手吧。 （Translated by Edward Jones, Taipei Times／台北時報張聖恩） Audio recordings for Speak Up! dialogues will be suspended until further notice due to the pandemic.
A: When a couple gets divorced, in addition to custody rights, distribution of assets is another sticking point. B: I seem to remember that Wang and his wife registered their marriage in the US. A: Yep, I think that’s correct. So what? B: In many US states, the law provides for the equal distribution of assets, which means that all assets accumulated during the marriage are considered to be the common property of the couple. I reckon Wang may be in for some huge losses. A: 夫妻要離婚時，除了子女監護權以外，財產分配也是個難題。 B: 我記得老王當年是在美國登記結婚的。 A: 好像是，怎麼了？ B: 在美國許多州實行夫妻共同財產制，婚姻狀態下取得的財產，都算是兩人的共同財產，我看老王這次要虧大了。 （Translated by Edward Jones, Taipei Times／台北時報張聖恩） Audio recordings

B: Ah, I know about this: a prenup is an agreement about how to distribute assets in the event of a divorce, right? A: It doesn’t just cover assets, but also the location of residence during marriage, many different kinds of living expenses and even the surnames of their children can all be agreed through a prenup in advance. B: Wow, that’s brilliant! If I had known about this, I would have signed one before I got hitched. A: 聽說老王他們有簽「婚前協議書」。 B: 我知道，那是一種關於財產分配的契約，對不對？ A: 不只財產分配，其它像是婚後居住地、各種生活花費、甚至子女的姓氏都可事先協議。 B:
