翻譯 Translation
Xiaoshi: Mark, have you heard of Feng Shui?
Mark: Yes, I have. It’s something Taiwanese pay attention to when buying a house, right?
Xiaoshi: Yes, Taiwanese believe that the living environment can affect a person’s personality and health.
Mark: I heard from other Taiwanese friends that living near a
hospital makes it easy to get sick, is that true?
Xiaoshi: Yes, that’s right. Also, there should be sufficient lighting in the living room at home. If a room is too dark, it may affect your luck.
Mark: I agree with that. If sunlight can’t come into the living room, it can affect one’s mood.
Xiaoshi: Some people also say that you shouldn’t place knives or swords at home because they are considered weapons.
Mark: Wow! It seems like there are many things to pay attention to in Feng Shui.
Xiaoshi: Yes, you’re right. If I get the chance, I would like to study it thoroughly.

Historians are rethinking the way the Holocaust is being presented in museums as the world marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the last Nazi concentration camps this month. Shocking images of the mass killings of Jews were “used massively at the end of World War II to show the violence of the Nazis,” historian Tal Bruttmann, a specialist on the Holocaust, told AFP. But in doing so “we kind of lost sight of the fact that is not normal to show” such graphic scenes of mass murder, of people being humiliated and dehumanized, he said. Up to this
When people listen to music today, they typically use streaming services like YouTube or Spotify. However, traditional formats like vinyl records have regained popularity in recent times. Vinyl records are circular discs that store music in grooves on their surfaces and are played on a turntable. As the turntable’s needle runs along these grooves, it picks up vibrations and translates them into sound. The history of vinyl records dates back to the late 1800s, but material and technological challenges delayed mass production until the 1950s. Despite early versions having short playtimes and poor sound quality, vinyl records introduced a new era
