我想要去的幾個國家

Dimanche 27 Octobre 2013

花了好大一筆錢之後
來年可能沒那麼寬裕了
可是想像的不用花錢總是可以吧?

我想到幾個地方
希望有生之年可以一一實現
德國
可以看新天鵝堡
英國
可已到倫敦可以到牛津到劍橋

102.10.26.中高級英檢

Samedi 26 Octobre 2013

今天是第3次參加中高級英檢初試了
(很多年很多年以前有1次偷跑的不算)
第1次100年時距通過so close
第2次101年差距拉大
這次
准考證號碼出現我的lucky 7~00277
希望是個美麗的巧合
讓我順利通過
這次
所有的題目都在時間內答完
聽力覺得聽得清楚些
我感覺
要不是緊張
我會聽得更輕鬆
這次考試so weird
既沒準備
也不緊張
我的想法是:
語言就是一種工具
端看妳平日用得熟不熟練
考前再來複習抱佛腳感覺不像在測試語言能力
也許我是錯的
因為我還在參加測驗

閱讀的部分我一邊考一邊領悟出一個心得
前頭還好短句短文不費時
後頭是幾篇長篇大論的文章
而問題最多不超過4題
如果每篇都從頭到尾讀完再來答題時間是一定不夠的
因為只有45分鐘給妳用
所以我用了一個方法
直接看題目就回答了
it based on your background
看妳平日讀了多少英文文章
對歷史典故時事瞭解多少
這樣就不必把文章全部看完了
頂多頂多掃描一遍全文大概抓一個梗概瞭解在說什麼即可
例如有一篇在說垃圾的處理問題
提到印地安州，提到非洲，提到生質燃油，提到政府的政策，提到成本，提到處理的方法，等等等等......
當然不必全部鉅細靡遺的仔細閱讀
抓個梗概知道要問什麼就直接回答問題
這樣4題很輕鬆就可以作答完成
頂多頂多有不清楚的就再回頭快掃一遍
當然
這首先要是妳對生質燃油對垃圾問題平日就有在關注有基本的常識知識
否則沒有這瞭解的背景直接像我這樣就是沒有章法啦

所以今天這後頭的大部頭的題目就這樣被我解決了
當然
我有可能是錯的
因為成績還沒揭曉

對了
成績是102.11.13.揭曉

另一種救贖

Jeudi 17 Octobre 2013

今晚又發作
瘋狂想念他
在自己日記裡不可遏抑的叨叨絮絮
也算是一種救贖的方式

my homework~The rights of immigrants~

The rights of immigrants

Immigrants without citizenship should NOT have the same rights as citizens.

    According to the British sociologist T. H Marshall’s essay “Citizenship and Social Class” issued in 1950, citizenship roughly divides into three areas of civil rights like freedom, political rights like voting, taking public examinations and holding public offices, and finally social rights like welfare payment. These three parts involve the nation and her people’s citizenship. Furthermore, according to “The Constitution of the Public of China” Article 2: The sovereignty of the Republic of China shall reside in the whole body of citizens. That’s the reason why citizenship is an important subject and my country uses the highest standards to regulate this status.

    The status of immigrants is classified into four types: having nationality, getting on the household register, settling down and just staying a short period of time. Only having nationality one is a citizen and has all the rights of a citizen in accordance with law.

    There are some other reasons supporting my opinion, that immigrates should not have the same rights as citizens, let me explain more specifically.

   

    The first reason is that immigrants haven’t the same obligation as citizens. Immigrants have lived in the country less than natives. Natives have more responsibilities than immigrants. Suppose the environment changes, immigrants have the chance to choose to return home or to go elsewhere which offers more advantage to them. No matter whether it is about the economy or is the war. Yet the natives have no choices. They can only stay with the country through thick and thin.

    In addition, for those immigrants who have committed crime, they are charged by different law depending on how their original countries deal with the native country. This might affect the feelings of native people.

   Yet, when immigrants have got official citizenship, their rights and the obligations are the same as natives. Under these circumstances, their status should be equal to natives.

    Unless they have Taiwanese nationality, I think, immigrants without citizenship should NOT have the same rights as citizens.

my homework~Before Midnight~

my homework~has been corrected~

Before Midnight

I went to the cinema recently to watch a movie “Before Midnight”.

The director is Richard Linklater. The lead actor was Ethan Hawke. The lead actress stared was Julie Delpy.

The introduction from the film maker is below:

We meet Jesse and Celine nine years on in Greece. Almost two decades have passed since their first meeting on that train bound for Vienna.

The movie is one of a series. The first one, “Before Sunrise” took place in Vienna eighteen years ago. The next, “Before Sunset” took place in Paris nine years ago. And the third one is “Before Midnight” set in Greece this year. The series was made by same film team and the same stars.

“Before Sunrise” is such a beautiful movie, like a fairy tale. It describes an American boy named Jesse meeting a French girl called Celine on a train way to Vienna. Both had a broken relationship just a few days ago. Based on mutual understanding, they can feel sympathy to each other. Then, they start to talk and find the other person so worth of knowing. In the end, when they have to part before sunrise, they make an appointment to meet in the same place six months later. After doing this, they give a kiss and an embrace to each other, waving to say goodbye.

Nine years goes by before “Before Sunset” is released. When Jesse appeares in Paris meeting his readers at a book store, he sees Celine outside and she stares at him wearing a friendly smile. He finishes the meeting and asks her to go for a walk in an awkward atmosphere. Along the conversation, we gradually realize they didn’t meet nine years ago because the girl never showed. Celine explaines  that her grandma died that day. So she says “past is past. It was meant to be that way. ”. Why did she say that? Because Jesse had now got married and has a son. Jesse tells her he couldn’t feel happy. His wife is a nice woman but not good at communicating with him. He has to go to the airport before sunset since he has booked the flight. In the end, Celine tells Jesse he will be late if he doesn’t leave at once. Jesse just says “I know.”

This year, bring the third drama “Before Midnight” after another nine years. With a passion based on the two movies I have seen. I saw it a less romantic movie than “Before Sunrise” and “Before Sunset”. It became a serious one. They have a romantic night in the hotel because they have traveled to Greece with their twin girls. But life is complicated. They have both changed. One is so realistic and the other is so practical. They discuss issues like raising children, cleaning the house, equality, fairness, dream jobs, achievements- something like that. The romantic atmosphere has gone, they start to quarrel and argue. The beautiful midnight is ruined.

I saw an unsatisfied woman with an unhappy mood accompanied by her husband. They loved each other still. But I can feel there is so much compromise. Life indeed is tough.

What can I say? My fairy tale had gone. How I wish and hope they could have been luckier. I wish it sincerely.

覺得累了

Mardi 15 Octobre 2013

也許這樣的狀態可以讓我省思很多事
讓我想到別人
而不是只想到自己
開始想到自己的言行、決定對別人造成的影響
也讓我體會我的電力耗盡的情形會是什麼樣子
很累的時候還想堅持的會是什麼
而什麼是我不想、不再、而且無力去堅持的

fb上發紓的偶感
以為只是自言自語
沒想到會驚嚇到有些人
提醒自己
還是要節制
沒有直接在版上表示意見不代表他們沒看見

第一次感覺到這麼悲傷
想到這兩天感受到的急迫、壓力
聯想到自己身體的感受是多麼敏銳
很容易就失去了胃口
易瘦不易胖的體質
很容易失去體重失去了好不容易養胖的肉肉
身型越來越沒份量

也許這樣的狀態可以讓我省思很多事

機會成本

Lundi 14 Octobre 2013

人說機會成本
選A要放棄B
B就是A的機會成本
反之
選B要放棄A
A就是B的機會成本

一直以來
我也這麼認為
魚與熊掌不能兩全

近日我有新的領會
所謂機會成本
只有在不得不的情形下才適用
不論選擇A或B
兩種都要付出成本
兩種都不是最適的選項

如果
有一天
妳找到了
the right
那全然是屬於妳的不作第二人想
那根本就只有滿滿的收益完全沒有成本
因為妳所放棄的本就不該是妳的
所以不必辛苦勉強付出成本去得到
而走在完全正確的路上
只是成就妳
所以
往後就只需等待滿滿收獲欣賞人生沿路怡然的風光

這須在領略怡然的風光之後才能體會
am I right?

尊重我的至愛

Dimanche 13 Octobre 2013

愛一個人
有時很難的一個課題是要全然的尊重他
but I need to
因為我愛他
所以我要這麼作
愛一個人
就是要尊重他的全人格
出自於我的自願
而非一種被要求被強迫
此之所以我必須常常提醒自己
不要過度關心
讓他是他自己
就像他有他的天命
我有我的
是一樣的道理
我用這樣的方式愛他
