Ferris wheels were once the center of the town fair. Now they are key parts of major metropolitan skylines. But none can top the heights of the Ain Dubai — meaning “Dubai Eye” in Arabic — which is scheduled to open on Oct. 21. At more than 250 meters, Ain Dubai is 82 meters higher than the current world's tallest ferris wheel in operation, the High Roller in Las Vegas. It is almost twice the size of the London Eye.
摩天輪曾經是市集的中心。現在，它們是主要大都市天際線的關鍵部分。但沒有一個能超越預計在10月21日開幕的艾因杜拜-阿拉伯語義中為'杜拜之眼'-的高度。杜拜之眼高250多公尺，比目前世界運行中的最高摩天輪，拉斯維加斯的豪客摩天輪高82公尺。它幾乎是倫敦眼的兩倍。

First announced in February 2013, Ain Dubai has taken more than eight years to complete. Construction began in May 2015, with an anticipated completion date of early to mid-2019. That date was later pushed to October 20, 2020, which was then pushed back another year when Expo 2020 was delayed by a year due to the pandemic.
杜拜之眼於2013年2月首次對外發布，歷時超過8年完工。2015年5月開始施工，原本預計2019年初到年中完工。但完工日期被延後到2020年10月20日，結果又因為大流行病導致2020年世博會被推遲，再往後延一年。

The structure has 48 enclosed cabins, some of which can fit up to 40 passengers. In total, 1,750 people can ride at the same time, according to the attraction.
這個摩天輪有48個封閉式座艙，其中有一些座艙可以容納40名乘客。根據景點的統計，總共有1750人可以同時乘坐。

There are three different types of cabin to take in the 38-minute rotation: observation cabins (the standard option), social cabins (these are the "VIP" option and have a bar in the center of the pod) and private cabins, which can be booked out for special occasions and include the option of a private three-course dinner over two rotations of the wheel.
在38分鐘的旋轉中，有三種不同類型的座艙可供選擇:觀景座艙(標準型)，社交座艙(這些是VIP型並且在座艙中央有酒吧)和私人座艙，可以依照特殊場合預訂，包含可以選擇在摩天輪旋轉兩圈時享用三道菜的晚餐。

Bringing all of this to fruition has meant pulling in expertise from all corners of the globe -- consultants from the UAE, South Korea, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, France and Italy all contributed to key aspects of the design.
這一切的實現，意味著從世界各地引進專業技能-來自阿聯酋、韓國、德國、英國、荷蘭、法國及義大利的顧問，都為設計的關鍵層面做出貢獻。

【國立臺灣大學109學年度畢業典禮 致詞代表 心理學系林世峰】
Student Address, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
Shih-Feng Lin from the Department of Psychology

.
校長、各位貴賓、師長，親愛的家長、同學、畢業生，還有所有螢幕前的觀眾朋友，大家好！我是臺大畢業生代表，心理學系四年級的林世峰。

四年來，真的很難忘，我們同學一起在新生書院互加好友，在醉月湖找校鵝，還到舟山路上觀察大笨鳥的慢動作，又騎腳踏車到溫州街裝文青，到118巷當吃貨。多希望一切歲月靜好，但新冠肺炎疫情揮之不去，年輕生命殞落的悲劇突然到來，讓我們成為最迷惘的一屆，也是最獨特的一屆。

學校的活動臨時停辦，線上課程堆積如山，畢業舞會、椰林辦桌又被忍痛取消，最後甚至連實體畢業典禮和謝師宴也成為永遠的遺憾。我有朋友被迫放棄出國交換的機會，而我夢寐以求的芬蘭教育見習也無法成行。計畫被打亂、不安變常態，我們卻又將面臨更多挑戰。

一天，我在溫州街二手書店翻到詹姆斯．卡斯的一句話，震撼了我。這位哲學家將人類活動分為兩種遊戲，他說：「有限遊戲以取勝為目的，無限遊戲以延續遊戲為目的。」當下我驚覺，或許求學路上感到煎熬，就是因為我們被困在有限的遊戲中。有限的學習是一場短跑，只是一種手段，是為了勝過別人來證明自己，而拼命地刷新履歷、獲得標籤。

我回想起大三的一晚，我陪高三的學弟妹們為大考奮戰，原本想說幫忙解題而已，但最後他們卻對我說 :「學長，我讀書感覺好空、好累、好悶……」、「學長，我學這些到底為了什麼……」

是啊！為了考試而讀書、為了標籤而學習，不問意義與價值，讓我們陷入空虛、疲憊與痛苦。於是，我和一群來自超過二十個不同科系的夥伴創立了「臺大青鳥教育社」，有來自超過五所大學甚至香港、加拿大的大學生，一起走進的社區、偏鄉引導國高中生探索學習意義和自我價值，我們一起描繪活用所學、開展生涯的美好未來。

驀然回首，當初那麼想到芬蘭，不就是為了回台灣實現讓學習更有意義的理想嗎？疫情是一位無形的嚴師，教導我們在變動中珍惜彼此，在家園築夢踏實，更讓我們重新發現，學習是一場無限的壯遊，本身就是一種目的，是為了提升自己來造福他人，而自在地探索未知、創造價值。

經過師生共同努力，今天的臺大更重視心輔資源，「防疫一號」、「線上杜鵑花節」、「未來大學」，都讓我們這最迷惘的一屆，不僅成為了最獨特的一屆，更將蛻變為最堅韌、最覺醒的一屆。無論如何我們堅信，來到生命的必有意義，即使畢業了、即使停課了，臺大人都將繼續沉思、繼續學習，在人生的無限遊戲，繼續締造壯舉，讓傅鐘在心裡迴響起，永不止息！

一路上感謝師長、同學，感謝親友、爸爸媽媽及阿公阿嬤。感謝臺大砥礪我們脫胎換骨。期許自己並祝福各位同學，艱難時刻盡己所能，抱持無限思維活學活用，超越自我、同理他人，我們一起創造共好的故事、貢獻宇宙的精神！我是林世峰，畢業後我們一起勇敢！謝謝大家！

President Kuan, distinguished guests, professors, parents, graduates, and friends on the screen, Hi! I am the valedictorian on behalf of graduates. I am Lin, Shih-Feng from the Department of Psychology.

The past transient four years brought me lasting remembrance. We made friends with classmates at Orientation Camp, searched for geese at Drunken Moon Lake, watched languid birds, Malayan Night Heron, on Zhoushan Road, biked to Wenzhou Street like a hipster and took a bite at the Lane 118. Although I dream that serene days live on, Covid-19 pandemic and the tragic loss of young lives suddenly happened. Hence, we have become the most puzzled and unique graduating class of 2021.

The events on campus were abruptly suspended. Online courses were augmented. The graduation prom and the feast at Palm Boulevard were cancelled. Even the onsite graduation ceremony and the banquet for thanking professors have become impossible but eternal regrets. One of my friends was forced to relinquish the opportunity to exchange abroad. And I could not fulfill my internship program of which I dream in Finland. Facing the disruption of planning and uncertainty as normalcy, we meet myriad challenges.

One day, I read a sentence written by James Carse in a second-hand bookstore on Wenzhou Street. To my astonishment, the philosopher categorizes human activities as two kinds of games. He said that "a finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play.” All of a sudden, I realized that my struggling study arises from the trap of finite game. The limited learning like a sprint aims to prove superiority as means that we spare no effort to renew resume and acquire labels.

Reflecting back on one evening in my junior year, I accompanied third graders of high school who strived to prepare university entrance exam. I thought I could help answer their questions but eventually they said to me that “I felt aimless, exhausted, and suffocated…＂“What is the purpose for learning indeed…?”

Right. Studying for exams and labels without inquiring into meaning and value could ensnare us within emptiness, exhaustion and pains. Therefore, I found NTU Avizure Education Club in partnership with peers from more than 20 departments. Students from over five universities including those from Hong Kong and Canada enter the community and guide middle and high schoolers to explore the meaning of learning and the value of self through application of what we have learned, leading to promising careers in the future.

While viewing the past and thinking of Finland, wasn’t it the ideal that I wish to accomplish after return to make learning more meaningful? The pandemic is an invisible stern teacher who teaches us to cherish each other in times of turmoil, to pursue dreams step by step in homeland, and to discover again. Learning is infinite grand journey embodied in a purpose, improving oneself to benefit others, exploring unknown, and creating value.

With joint endeavors of faculty and students, National Taiwan University today draws more attention to counseling resources. The Device of Epidemic Prevention No. 1, Azalea Festival online, and the University of Future project allow us as the most puzzled class to transform into the most unique and perseverant class with self-awareness. We firmly believe that anything that brings to the life gives meaning. Regardless of gradation and end of class, members of NTU would continue to consider and learn as well as proceed to accomplish in the infinite game of life. And the resonance of ringing the Full Bell in our mind never ceases.

I would like to extend my gratitude to professors, fellow classmates, family, friends, parents and grandparents in my path. Thank National Taiwan University for urging us to change. I expect each student and myself to transcend ourselves and to be compassionate toward others as active learners during trying times. We together create stories of common good and embrace the spirit to contribute to the universe. I am Lin, Shih-Feng. We are brave upon graduation. Thank you all.

The true meaning of life is to contribute, not to take. If you are within your abilities and selflessly contribute to the people around you, happiness will.come to you.❤️
人生的真正意義在於貢獻，而不是索取。如果在你的能力範圍，無私貢獻身邊的人，自己的心態也會變得愉悅。❤️

Hong Kong is teemed with rubbish bins of all sorts, totalling 42,000 in 2014 – meaning one for every 172 people and 10 times more than Seoul. Such abundance has drawn Louis Chung and Tom Hui, both in their early 20s, to keep a record of these bins across the city and share their trail of trash cans on Instagram.

Chung’s unusual interest in waste containers can be dated back to his childhood walks, where he always noticed a purple rubbish bin on his way home from school every day. He recalls, “I saw that bin as my childhood companion.” Growing up, he has taken pictures of every rubbish bin he spotted, before partnering with his design school classmate Hui to develop their final year project based on the subject. His enthusiasm has grown even greater after completing the project and now his current goal is to publish a photo album exclusively of local waste containers.
