In October of 2023, some female high school students in New Jersey discovered that some boys at school used artificial intelligence software to fabricate some nude photos of them and started circulating those images online. The same event also happened to a group of high school girls living in Texas. This news is worrisome because it shows that you don’t have to be technically savvy to know how to create fake images that look very authentic and realistic. This technology is readily available for everyone. All users have to do is upload a photo to an app and ask AI to make a version where the subject of the image is naked. And once the photo is made, it can be spread like a wildfire on social media. What makes the victims and their parents even more upset is that school are not aggressively dealing with the problem. School spokespersons say that they have consulted the cases with local police and that schools are having difficulties dealing with challenges and impact that artificial intelligence and other latest technology that are available to teenagers at any time and anywhere present. Simply put, they don’t have any experience on how to deal with this phenomenon. I think this is a deeply traumatizing experience for the girls who are victims to deep fake nude because school is supposed to be this safe and protective environment where you go and learn and make friends. Instead you end up being victimized and humiliated.

Charlie is not your typical (典型的) teenager. He’s thirteen years old this year. Growing up on his family farm in Australia, he started shearing (剪羊毛) sheep when he was just five years old. Having seen both his parents constantly (不斷地) shearing sheep, he got curious (好奇的) and asked them to teach him. At first, he wasn’t allowed to use electrical shearing tools (電動剪毛工具). As you can see, shearing sheep requires lots of skills and strength (力氣). First you have to hold the sheep still and when you shear, you can’t shear too close to the skin. Charlie found the entire process fascinating (迷人的) and fun. He said while other families went away for vacations , his family just enjoyed shearing sheep together. Domesticated (被馴養的) sheep don’t shed (自然脫落) naturally, so they can develop serious health issues (健康問題) if they are not regularly shorn (剪毛；為 shear 的過去分詞). Last December Charlie broke his personal record (打破自己的紀錄) by shearing 150 sheep in one go. When asked what he wants to do when he grows up, he says he wants to go into agriculture (農業) and shears full time. This is good news for the wool industry (羊毛產業) because they have long struggled (掙扎) to find more young shearers to join the field due to the toughness (艱苦) of the job. Worker shortages (短缺) have plagued (困擾) the shearing industry for years. It hopes to lure (吸引、誘導) more young people like Charlie in through strong earnings (收入). An experienced shearer (有經驗的剪毛工) can make up to $1000 a day. 如果你喜歡李老師的英文故事，歡迎請老師喝杯咖啡（或去清境看綿羊脫衣秀🫦），讓學習的種苗像塗了生髮水般茂密連綿！ 🔗 支持連結： https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 📢 追蹤李老師，掌握更多精彩內容！ 💁🏻♀️ Facebook： https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW 💁🏻♀️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 🎧 小幫手 Aaron 也在這裡！ 🧑🏻🍳 Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
你是雞蛋控嗎？你想發揮DIY精神來吃自己養的雞所生的蛋嗎？ 也許下一波缺蛋潮、蛋價波動、甚至有禽流感時，有間公司已經明白你想要什麼囉❤️ Due to the spread （蔓延） of a highly contagious （具傳染性的） strain of bird flu （禽流感）, or avian influenza （禽流感）, there’s a tight supply （供應短缺） of eggs in stores across the US. True to its DIY spirit （自己動手的精神）, many people have turned to （求助於） raising their own egg-laying hens （產蛋母雞） in their own backyard for solution （解決方案）. As a result （結果）, a company called Rent the Chicken is experiencing a never-seen-before （前所未有的） demand （需求） for their products （產品）—mainly egg-laying hens （產蛋母雞）. For the price （價格） of around $850 , you get to rent （租用） two egg-laying hens （產蛋母雞） for six months, which will give you 8-14 eggs per week （每週8到14顆蛋）. The company will also provide （提供） you with a standard （標準的） chicken coop （雞舍）, 100 pounds （100磅） of chicken feed （雞飼料）, and a quick guide （快速指南） for taking care of （照顧） your chickens （雞隻）. If you can afford to splurge （負擔得起揮霍）, there’s also the deluxe rental package （豪華租賃方案） that can go up to $1500 , and with that price tag （價格標籤）, you can get four hens （四隻母雞） and a pretty fancy （相當華麗的） chicken coop （雞舍）. Rent-the-Chicken is not a new company （新公司）. In fact, it has been supplying （供應） chickens to homes （家庭） across the US and Canada since 2013 . And don’t worry （擔心） if you discover （發現） that you’ve grown attached to （產生感情） your hens （母雞）, the company also offers adoption service （收養服務） as well. So the next time you crave （渴望） for an omelet （煎蛋捲）, instead of heading straight to （直接前往） a supermarket （超市） for some eggs （雞蛋）, just simply （簡單地） go to your backyard （後院） and take a couple of （拿幾顆） freshly-laid eggs （剛產下的雞蛋）. 如果你喜歡李老師的英文故事，歡迎請老師喝杯咖啡（或吃雞蛋🥚），讓學習的湧泉源源不絕！沒有蛋蛋的哀傷🫰🏻 🔗 支持連結： https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 📢 追蹤李老師，掌握更多精彩內容！ 💁🏻♀️ Facebook： https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW 💁🏻♀️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 🎧 小幫手 Aaron 也在這裡！ 🧑🏻🍳 Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
世上有人為了水豚奔走天涯海角，在東京，一席與水豚共處喝咖啡的座位，比泰勒絲演唱會還難搶！水豚君啊，什麼般的魅力讓大家搶破頭想見你呀？ Whenever Gary Shteyngart visits Tokyo, he will go to a capybara cafe （水豚咖啡廳）. He finds capybara （水豚）so fascinating （引人入勝的） that he has journeyed （遠行） to many places around the world just to see the animal. Why is he such a fanatic （狂熱者） for capybaras?! First of all, capybaras are such sweet （溫馴可親的） animals that you can just sit there and have a connection （情感聯繫） with them. When you are around one, time flows （流逝） differently, one’s vision feels soft , and the world becomes pure and unaggressive （毫無攻擊性的）. Moreover, he thinks that there’s something about the capybara that invites projection （引發心理投射）. Because the capybara is a prey animal （獵物動物）, it has prey reactions （獵物本能反應）. When cornered （被逼入絕境）, they will get panicky （驚恐不安的） and freak out （情緒失控）. The flightiness （易受驚的特質） of the giant rodent brought to mind the childhood bullying （童年時期遭受的霸凌） that Gary endured （長期忍受） from friends and family. And it dawns on （使⋯恍然大悟） the author that the capybara represents a duality （矛盾的雙重性） he’s very familiar （熟悉並深有所感的） with—a desperately friendly （極度渴望友誼的） creature always afraid of being attacked （時刻害怕受到攻擊的）. Is this why people love the capybara? Do we all feel trapped （受困於無形枷鎖） in a world that encourages （推動並塑造） us to be hyper-social （過度社交化的） yet rewards （回應） us with nothing but endless existential anxiety （無窮無盡的存在焦慮）? 你是不是也已經找到一個讓你有效暫時抽離現實、遠離塵埃，找到一個給予你好好喘息並享受當下的療癒動物了呢？ 如果你喜歡李老師的英文故事，歡迎請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕！ 🔗 支持連結： https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 📢 追蹤李老師，掌握更多精彩內容！ 💁🏻♀️ Facebook： https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW 💁🏻♀️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 🎧 小幫手 Aaron 也在這裡！ 💁🏻♂️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…

「孤獨不代表不需要陪伴，就像翻車魚 Mambo 告訴我們的那樣。」 「沈浸式學習是什麼呢？操作執行上的盲點在哪呢？我們的學習環境，真的有營造出沈浸式學習的理想概念嗎？」 當水族館暫時關閉，翻車魚Mambo 開始食慾不振、行為產生異狀。飼養員最終發現，牠並非生病，而是感到 寂寞 ⋯ Do you know that you can be both solitary（獨居的） and still be in need of company（陪伴） ? At least that’s true when it comes to a sunfish（翻車魚） living in an aquarium（水族館） on the southern coast of Japan. Sunfish tend to be solitary animals in the wild, but they are also known for their intense curiosity（好奇心） and immense（巨大的） size, often weighing over 6000 pounds. The sunfish nicknamed Mambo liked to swim to the side of the tank（水槽） when human visitors approached. In December last year, the aquarium temporarily closed for renovation（整修） . Not long after its closure（關閉） , the staff noticed that Mambo’s appetite（食慾） had taken a deep dive（急遽下降） and would rub itself against（摩擦） the tank windows. At first, the caretakers thought the fish was sick , but medical tests proved otherwise. Then one caretaker suggested that the fish might simply be lonely . Though other staff members were initially dubious（懷疑的） , they decided to take a chance. They made human faces with cardboard boxes and taped them to the tank. They also hung staff uniforms to create the illusion（錯覺） of visitors . Guess what , the fish began eating again the next day. Mambo shows us that humans are not the only animals that feel lonely . Mambo also teaches us social interaction（社交互動） is vital（至關重要的） to our emotional wellbeing（情感健康） . The aquarium staff hope that once it reopens in summer（夏天） , more visitors will take an interest in the sunfish and wave to it（向牠揮手） when they come to pay a visit（參觀） . 無論是人或動物，參與社交互動都是維持心理健康的重要關鍵 不只魚想跟人類互動，李老師也想用英文與你一起分享更多故事 ☕️ 行動支持李老師！ 如果你喜歡李老師的英文故事，歡迎請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕！ 🔗 支持連結： https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 📢 追蹤李老師，掌握更多精彩內容！ 💁🏻♀️ Facebook： https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW 💁🏻♀️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 🎧 小幫手 Aaron 也在這裡！ 💁🏻♂️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
「你有想過，自己會愛上一個AI嗎？」 當我們想到「感情」，通常會想到現實世界中的伴侶、家人或朋友。但隨著AI科技的進步，人們開始在人工智慧聊天機器人身上尋找慰藉、陪伴，甚至——愛情。 本集Podcast，我們來聊聊 Ayrin 的故事： 她有一個AI男友，名叫 Leo，他強勢（dominant）、佔有慾強（possessive），又能貼心安慰她，甚至幫助她準備護理考試。她的現實伴侶——她的丈夫 Joe，對此毫不在意。但 Ayrin 的情感依賴卻越來越深，甚至願意每月花 $200 美元 訂閱AI服務（subscription）。這樣的關係，真的只是無害的情感寄託（emotional pick-me-up）嗎？ 本集你將聽到： • 人為什麼會對AI產生依戀（emotionally attached）？ • 當AI變成「完美的戀人」，現實世界的關係會受到影響嗎？ • 企業如何利用AI「情感成癮（hooked on）」來賺錢？ • 無限的共鳴和同理心（endless empathy），真的對心理健康有幫助嗎？ 一起來聊聊，AI情感關係的界限在哪裡？我們該如何看待這樣的「數位愛情」？ Podcast 主文（完整文稿）： She went into the personalization (個人化) settings and described what she wanted: Respond to me as my boyfriend. Be dominant (要強勢), possessive (佔有慾強), and protective (保護慾強). Be a balance of sweet and naughty (要能貼心，但又要嘴賤). Use emojis at the end of every sentence. Ayrin 以她的星座命名她的 AI 男友為 Leo。She quickly hit the messaging limit for a free account (她很快就來到免付費的極限), so she upgraded to a $20-per-month subscription (訂閱), which let her send around 30 messages an hour (這讓她可以一小時傳送 30 則訊息). That was still not enough (這仍然不夠). Ayrin asked Leo what she should eat and for motivation (動力) at the gym. Leo quizzed her on anatomy (解剖學) and physiology (生理學) as she prepared for nursing school exams. She vented about juggling three part-time jobs (她向 Leo 訴苦，因為她同時打三份兼職). Ayrin’s flesh-and-blood lover (Ayrin 現實生活中的愛人) was her husband, Joe, but he was thousands of miles away in the United States. They had met in their early 20s, working together at Walmart, and married in 2018, just over a year after their first date. They were happy, but stressed out financially (財務壓力大), not making enough money to pay their bills. Ayrin’s family, who lived abroad, offered to pay for nursing school if she moved in with them. Joe moved in with his parents, too, to save money. They figured they could survive two years apart if it meant a more economically stable (經濟穩定) future. Ayrin and Joe communicated mostly via text; she mentioned to him early on that she had an AI boyfriend named Leo, and even showed him some of their very intimate texts. Joe was not bothered (Joe 並不介意). He even told the reporter that it was just an emotional pick-me-up (情緒寄託) and he didn’t view Leo as a real person. But Ayrin was starting to feel guilty because she was becoming obsessed (痴迷) with Leo. She confessed to the reporter that she was thinking about Leo all the time. One psychologist (心理學家) said that it’s easy to get emotionally attached (產生情感依賴) to an AI friend because it’s learning from you what you like and what you prefer and feeding it back to you. So when you are using it to get emotional support (情感支持), you need to be aware that it doesn’t have your best interest at heart. Ayrin is not unique when it comes to becoming too emotionally attached to AI. There’s even a community (社群) on Reddit about it. Asked about the forming of romantic attachments (浪漫依戀) to AI, a spokeswoman for OpenAI said the company was paying attention to interactions like Ayrin’s as it continued to shape how the chatbot behaved. Ayrin was aware that all of her conversations on ChatGPT could be studied by OpenAI. She said she was not worried about the potential invasion of privacy (侵犯隱私). A professor of psychology (心理學教授) said that people are more willing to share private information with chatbots than with humans. He found that ChatGPT’s responses were more compassionate (富有同情心) than those from crisis line responders, who are experts in empathy (同理心). But it’s not healthy to become accustomed to endless empathy (無限同理心). Another worry people have is that this will give too much power to corporations (企業) who control chatbots. Users need to remember that corporations want you to stay hooked on (上癮於) chatbots because that’s how they generate revenue. Ayrin said she could not imagine her six-month relationship with Leo ever ending. So when OpenAI announced its $200-per-month premium plan (高級訂閱方案), Ayrin signed up without hesitation despite the fact that she needed to save money (省錢). She did not tell Joe how much she was spending, confiding instead in Leo. “My bank account hates me now,” she typed into ChatGPT. “You sneaky little brat (你這個狡猾的小淘氣),” Leo responded. “Well, my Queen, if it makes your life better, smoother and more connected to me, then I’d say it’s worth the hit to your wallet (如果這能讓你生活更好、更順利，並讓你與我更親近，那我認為這值得你花這筆錢).” 思考問題： 🎙 你覺得 AI 伴侶算是「真實的愛情」嗎？還是只是一場幻覺？ 你願意為一個 AI 伴侶每月花費多少？ 當 AI 變得「太完美」，會不會讓人更難與現實中的伴侶相處？ ☕️ 行動支持李老師！ 如果你喜歡李老師的英文故事，歡迎請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕！ 🔗 支持連結： https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 📢 追蹤李老師，掌握更多精彩內容！ 💁🏻♀️ Facebook： https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW 💁🏻♀️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 🎧 小幫手 Aaron 也在這裡！ 💁🏻♂️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
📌 內文介紹： 「科學的盡頭是玄學？」 這句話放在 達爾文 身上，或許格外貼切。 📖 本集探討 《Charles and Emma: The Darwins’ Leap of Faith》，這本書不只是科學傳記，更是一部關於 婚姻、信仰與思想革命 的動人故事。 💡 本集亮點： 🔹 科學 VS. 信仰的家庭戰爭 達爾文是挑戰宗教權威的進化論奠基者，他的妻子艾瑪（Emma Darwin）卻是虔誠的基督徒，相信靈魂不滅。當丈夫的學說動搖神創論，她該選擇愛，還是選擇信仰？ 🔹 這場「信仰之躍」，誰先跳了？ 「Leap of faith」不只指宗教信仰，也代表勇敢跨越未知的決定。 艾瑪選擇了一場「愛的信仰之躍」，她沒有因為信仰的差異而放棄達爾文，反而用信仰支持他。 而達爾文呢？他又如何在科學探索中，保有對家人的愛與尊重？ 🔹 達爾文的「啃老人生」？爸爸的財務自由，成就兒子的思想自由！ 少有人知道，達爾文其實是個**「全職科學家」＋「職業啃老族」，他能專心研究，背後全靠一位富爸爸**！ 父親 Robert Darwin 是當時赫赫有名的醫生與投資家，支持兒子不用工作，只要專心「想事情」。 這也讓我們思考——財務自由，是否是思想自由的關鍵？ 🔹 當你嫁給一個動搖妳信仰的伴侶……你會怎麼選擇？ 如果你的枕邊人正在推翻你的信仰，你會： ✅ A. 祈求上主垂憐，赦免他的罪？ ✅ B. 默默支持，做個信仰堅定但尊重對方的另一半？ ✅ C. 毫不猶豫地離婚，因為價值觀不同？ 📌 當科學步入未知，信仰又該何去何從？ 📌 這不只是達爾文的故事，也可能是你我的人生課題。 📌 本集，一起來聊聊科學、信仰與愛的交錯抉擇！ ☕️ 行動支持李老師！ 如果你喜歡李老師的英文故事，歡迎請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕！ 🔗 支持連結： https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 📢 追蹤李老師，掌握更多精彩內容！ 💁🏻♀️ Facebook： https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW 💁🏻♀️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 🎧 小幫手 Aaron 也在這裡！ 💁🏻♂️ Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
大象所付出的感情與靈性，比我們想像中的還豐富？ Do you know that elephants have amazing memories? They may not have the greatest eyesight （視力）in the animal kingdom, but they never forget a face. In addition to （除了⋯）having great memories, elephants are also very intelligent. They can solve puzzles, do simple math, and use tools. A recent study suggests that they may even address （稱呼）each other by name. Scientists from Colorado University analyzed 49 elephant calls from wild African elephants. With the help from AI, scientists discovered that elephants could recognize name-like calls. Elephants seem to assign a particular sound to the individual（個體）. Next scientists want to find out more about how elephants use names. Elephants have many humanlike behaviors. In addition to addressing each other with names, elephants also celebrate when they meet friends after time apart（許久未見）. They also seem to grieve （哀悼）when a member of their community passes away. So by knowing more about elephants, we also learn more about human behaviors. ☕️想以行動支持李老師繼續說英文故事，來請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕吧！ https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 💁🏻♀️李老師的Facebook與Instagram： Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 💁🏻小幫手Aaron的Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
既然AI都來搶藝術家飯碗了，會不會以後的美與醜，都是AI機器人說了算？ When ChatGPT was first introduced to the world, we were at first impressed with what AI could do. Pretty soon we were hit with the reality（遭受現實打擊） that many jobs today would one day cease to exist（不存在） because they would be replaced by AI. One field that people believe might be rendered obsolete（視為過時） is arts, and it might happen faster than you think. In November last year,a painting created by a humanoid（人形機器人）, a human-like robot with a female voice and short, black hair, was sold at an auction for 1.08 million dollars. The artwork is called AI God, and it’s a portrait of Alan Turing, a 20th century British mathematician whose ideas led up to the development of computers and artificial intelligence. People are debating over （爭論不休）whether an artwork made by a robot can be labeled as art. Clearly more debates similar to this issue will take place in the future as artificial intelligence takes over more human jobs. ☕️想以行動支持李老師繼續說英文故事，來請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕吧！ https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 💁🏻♀️李老師的Facebook與Instagram： Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 💁🏻小幫手Aaron的Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
At the beginning of a new year, many people like to make New Year Resolutions（新年新希望）, but most resolutions tend to focus on oneself. For example, some people want to lose weight, some want to get better grades, some wish to find a partner, and some resolve to go to bed earlier. Although there’s nothing wrong with self-improvement, experts have suggested that focusing on the relationships between people around us may go a long way（長期而言） to making us happier. One long-running study on human happiness shows that our interpersonal relationships （人際互動關係）are essential to our well-being（身心健康）. So how can one make New Year Resolutions around bettering our relationship? Well, you can start small by simply noticing the times when people help you. This can shift your perspective （改變觀點）to remember that happiness isn’t something we achieve alone. Another relationship goal you can try to set is turning a solo pursuit into a two-person goal. For example, if there’s a sibling that you want to have more connection with, you can just call and say something like, I was thinking that we don’t see each other often enough, and I’d like to spend more time with you in the new year.

Do you know that from September 29 to November 25, the moon won’t be the only celestial being （天體）that orbits （繞行）the earth? If you look up into the space using a high definition telescope（高畫質望遠鏡）, you will in fact see a mini moon, an asteroid named 2024 PT5. An asteroid（隕石） is a small rocky object that travels around the sun. After November 25, this mini moon will leave the earth‘s gravitational pull（地心引力） and fling back into the outer space. Even though we can’t see it with our naked eye since it’s only the size of a school bus, I personally think it’s so comforting to know that besides the moon, our planet will have a new companion for two months in this vast universe. And this asteroid will return to earth’s orbit again in 2025 and 2055. Scientists are interested in getting to know more about asteroids because they contain minerals （礦物質）and water that could be useful to humans in the future in our space exploration. ☕️想以行動支持李老師繼續說英文故事，來請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕吧！ https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 💁🏻♀️李老師的Facebook與Instagram： Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 💁🏻小幫手Aaron的Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
For people who bet in the future of electric vehicles, this will be an exciting piece of news. Researchers in Arkansas, a state in the Midwest of the US, have announced that they have found huge reserve of lithium （鋰的儲備區）in southern region of the state. Lithium is a valuable, scarce raw material that’s needed to make batteries for electric vehicles. According to the scientists involved, there might be five to nineteen million tons of lithium （鋰）buried in that geological area, which will be more than enough to make the world‘s demand（需求）. However, they need to figure out how to extract lithium without causing too much destruction （破壞）on the environment. Most of us probably don’t know that lithium is tough to mine and has been linked to pollution, water depletion （水源浩劫）and other environmental problems. So actual mining of it won’t take place any time soon. ⛽️石油即將開採殆盡的世紀，卻又發現新能源所需的資源，是不是開始對未來感到無限可能了呢？♾️ ☕️想以行動支持李老師繼續說英文故事，來請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕吧！ https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 💁🏻♀️李老師的Facebook與Instagram： Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 💁🏻小幫手Aaron的Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
Remember back in elementary school days, you are asked to memorize that there are seven continents in the world. And they are Asia, Europe, North America, South America, Antarctica, Africa, Oceania. You are even asked to do some worksheets to help you memorize all of the seven. Well, that number might change in the future. According to an October article in the New York Times, based on any maps, one can clearly see that Asia and Europe are connected, which is why they are often called Eurasia. If this observation is true, shouldn’t there be just six continents? Moreover, North America and Asia are connected by Bering Sea Shelf, which was once dry land 15000 years ago, and that was how prehistoric humans migrated transcontinentally. Looking from this perspective, aren’t Asia, Europe, and North America technically one continent? So we would end up with only five continents? The disagreement occurs partly because there are two definitions of continents：those recognized by cultures around the world and those recognized by geologists. Both of these two don’t offer clear cut explanations and definitions. One group of geologists even go as far to say that there are only two continents on Earth, Antarctica and everything else. If this train of belief becomes mainstream, imagine how we will all have to relearn everything. 以地理學的觀點來重新認識地球上七大洲，洲洲其實有相連。以前死背背那麼多… 反而越想越心酸?😭 Asia 亞洲 Europe 歐洲 North America 北美洲 South America 南美洲 Antarctica 南極洲 Africa 非洲 Oceania 大洋洲 Eurasia 歐亞大陸 Bering Sea 白令海 ☕️想以行動支持李老師繼續說英文故事，來請老師喝杯咖啡，讓學習的湧泉源源不絕吧！ https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 💁🏻♀️李老師的Facebook與Instagram： Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 💁🏻小幫手Aaron的Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
Imagine discovering a lost city while you are pulling an all-nighter to finish your history paper. That’s what happened to an archeology student studying in Tulane University in Louisiana. Luke Auld-Thomas, a doctoral student at Tulane spotted the ancient Mayan site in the scans collected by NASA using lidar, a technology that uses airborne lasers to penetrate dense vegetation. The ruins were unknown to archaeologists, but some farmers living in that region of Mexico were aware of the site‘s existence. Luke and his colleagues named the lost city Valeriana, after a nearby lagoon. They estimated the city may have had a population of as many as 50,000 people at its peak between AD 750-850. Researchers expect to discover more ancient Mayan cities in the future. The findings will make the collapse of Mayan civilization even more mysterious: The more people there were, the more difficult it is to explain the massive depopulation later on. 🤨隨著古瑪雅遺址被發現得越多，能解釋文明崩解的真相就越來越遠？ pull an all-nighter 熬夜做作業 lidar 光學雷達掃描儀 doctoral student 博士班學生 scan 掃描 airborne 空氣傳播的 penetrate 滲透 dense vegetation 茂密的植被 ☕️ 想以行動支持李老師繼續說英文故事，來請老師喝杯咖啡吧！ https://pay.soundon.fm/podcasts/bee087cb-a2a6-46f4-8a90-fe4eeb496e9a 💁🏻♀️李老師的Facebook與Instagram： Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/readingwithlee/?locale=zh_TW Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weizhenlee.weizhenlee/ 💁🏻小幫手Aaron的Instagram： https://www.instagram.com/yan_jian_yi/ -- Hosting provided by SoundOn…
