校長、師長、家長，和在螢幕前難以置信這就是我們的畢典，卻也真實面對的所有臺大畢業生，大家好，我是政治學系四年級的林語萱。

比起說著我們會鵬程萬里、前程似錦，今天，我更想邀請各位一同擔任NTU Sweety Course的貢獻者，整理出綜合過去四年，且能帶著走出校園的三個成長學分：勇氣、彈性和自己。

大二上，我休了學，在零下三十幾度的低溫、強颱般的逆風和看不見天際線的白色大地中，越野滑雪了半個多月，只為了跟著亞洲第一支南極長征隊伍，在世界的盡頭，找到那個能夠超越極限的自己。參與這個計畫，或許是大多人眼中的不正常，然而它卻成為了我人生中最有收穫的選擇之一。相信在臺大這個充滿可能性的校園裡，許多人心中，也有這麼一個想征服的南極，它可能不怎麼正常，也不怎麼容易，但別忘了帶著勇氣這個學分去做、去闖你認爲是對的事物。

再來，還有個學分，叫做彈性。還記得那些腳踏車被水源阿伯給拖吊，只好改成走路或騎Ubike2.0的日常嗎？我們在一次又一次的校內小組合作、校外的家教實習中，反覆上著適應不同情況的實驗課，而疫情又加重了它的loading，原本以為上一屆已經夠慘，沒想到這一屆竟然還更糟的情況下，我們滾動式的調整上課的樣貌，努力用NTU Cool的1.5倍速上課。在唯一不變就是變的這個世間常態中，臺大教會了我們保持彈性的生存之道。

最後，最最重要的學分，是我們自己，沒錯，就是在螢幕前的每一個你你你。從大一忙碌於轉系和雙主修的菜鳥，變成焦慮著左右張望他人下一步的大四老人，我們總汲汲營營的害怕落後別人，擔心無法成為自己心中想成為的樣子，但當回過頭，騎過幾千次椰林大道後的我們，其實早已不是從前那個自己了。所以未來，當外界的環境，督促和逼迫著我們精益求精，好還要更好時，記得回到內心，聽聽它的聲音，由它來告訴我們：你不必成為誰，你只需要相信自己。

除了勇氣、彈性和自己這三個學分外，還有一張加簽單也別忘記，是一路陪伴我們的家人和師長，一個人的任性，需要很多人的愛才能夠成全，謝謝你們在成長路上的陪伴和鼓勵，我們才能夠放肆的任性。

最後的最後，我想起了一戰後的西班牙大流感，它帶走的生命比戰爭還多，但在時間洪流下也終究有結束的一天。誰知道一百多年後的今天，我們也被迫參與了歷史的進程。也許未來看似困難重重，但卡繆在瘟疫裡提醒了我們：「惟有甘願在困難的堅實土壤中去生根立足，才能夠獲得果實。」今天後的明日，我們將在不同的土壤中勇敢挑戰、彈性應對和相信自己，且帶著滿滿的愛去生根立足，為自己、為我們所身處的社會，產出最甜美的果實。準備好了嗎？讓我們一起推動歷史的進程吧！臺大109屆的畢業生們，畢業快樂，或許現在的我們無法面對面相聚，but I’ll see you down the road！謝謝大家。

President Kuan, respected faculty, honored guests and family, and to my fellow NTU graduates who would never have imagined our commencement hosted in this way but still making the best of it, good morning. I am YU-HSUAN LIN, from Department of Political Science.

Rather than wishing the best and the brightest futures to us all, today, I want to urge each and every one of you to join in and contribute to NTU Sweety Course, and put together three amongst the most important credits from these past four years. They are courage, elasticity, and ourselves.

I took a temporary leave in my sophomore year. At minus 30 degrees Celsius, with howling headwinds and blizzards all over the sky, I did cross-country skiing for more than half a month, to challenge myself beyond the limit at the very end of the world. My Antarctic venture may seem absurd to many, but it was one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done in my life. At NTU, a campus of endless possibilities, we all have a South Pole in our hearts, an undoubtedly challenging and perhaps laughable goal we yearn to achieve. But do not forget the credit of courage we have gained from these past years, and choose whatever it is that you believe is right.

The next credit, is adaptability. Do you remember the days when our bikes being towed and having to walk or take Ubike 2.0 to class? We learned to adapt through group projects in the classes and private tutoring off-campus, and the ongoing pandemic has added extra loading to our everyday challenges. We thought the previous year was bad, but this year is even worse. We adjust the way we took courses on a rolling basis, trying to catch up from NTU COOL at 1.5x speed. The only thing that doesn't change is change itself. NTU taught us how to adapt to survive.

Last but not least, and arguably the most important credit, is ourselves. That’s right, It’s each and every one of you behind the screens. From a first-year newbie busy planning your double major or transfer, to a senior wandering around anxiously as our peers taking next steps, we work hard painstakingly in fear of falling behind of other, and wonder if we can become the person we want to be. But looking back, after countless rides along the Royal Palm Boulevard, our old selves have already long gone. So, in the future, when the outside world is constantly pushing us to make the best even better and to reach beyond limits, remember to listen to that little voice inside of you. Listen to it as it tells you, there isn’t a certain or definite role you must fulfill, all you need is to have faith in yourself.

Besides the three credits I just mentioned, don’t forget the Petition for Adding Course: our families and professors who accompanied us along our journeys. It requires loves from many to accomplish caprice of one. Thank you for your company and encouragement along the way to allow us to be self-willed boldly.

Lastly, the Spanish flu outbreak after WWI came to my mind recently. It took even more lives than the battle fields. However, it too, eventually ended as time went by. Who knew that after a hundred years, we would also be a part of a similar history? It seems that adversities are awaiting us, but Albert Camus had already reminded us in La Peste “Like wandering shadows that could have acquired substance only by consenting to root themselves in the solid earth of their distress.” When tomorrow comes, in different corners on the Earth, we shall challenge, respond adaptively, and believe in ourselves. With each step that we take, we take with all the love there is within us. Let us contribute to ourselves and to our society, and may our efforts bear the sweetest fruits. Are you ready? Let’s push history forward! Hats off to all NTU graduates of 2021! Although we are unable to celebrate face to face now, I’ll see you down the road! Thank you all!

【國立臺灣大學 109學年度畢業典禮 校長致詞】
Opening Remarks, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
President Dr. Chung-Ming Kuan

.
各位師長同仁，各位畢業同學以及家長們，歡迎大家參加 109 學年度的線上畢業典禮。

去年新冠疫情初起，學校雖仍舉辦實體的畢業典禮，但規模大為縮小，許多師生和家長均以無法參加典禮為憾。今年初臺灣的疫情持續穩定，大家原本期待今年畢業典禮能按照往年方式辦理。不料五月時疫情急轉直下，臺北市疫情警戒程度提高，我們於是推遲畢業典禮，並改以線上方式進行。這也是臺大首次以線上方式舉辦畢業典禮。

隨著疫情發展，線上活動如今已成為生活中的新常態。我們雖逐漸習慣線上教學，線上會議，線上交流，線上購物訂餐等，但連期待了四年的畢業典禮也只能在線上參加，許多同學與家長們難免失望。為此，學務處與許多同學攜手，精心策劃了今天這場特殊的線上畢業典禮，希望能讓大家留下不一樣，但仍美好的記憶。

因為新冠疫情，有些同學會抱怨：這樣大的疫情怎麼就正好被我們在畢業時碰上了？也有些同學則樂觀的想，一旦有了疫苗，疫情得到控制，世界最終還是會回到以前的軌道，大家仍可以過著平穩安定的日子。

然而這個世界從不曾平靜。今年畢業的同學多數出生於1999 年，那正是規模達 7.3 的 921 大地震發生的那一年。時隔四年，亞洲（包括臺灣）爆發了罕見的急性呼吸道感染病 SARS。不過五年之後，源自美國的金融海嘯席捲全球，影響全世界經濟數年之久。2009 更是不平靜的一年，臺灣出現莫拉克風災，造成慘重傷亡；全球則爆發了 H1N1 流感大流行，數十萬人因此死亡。這些當時都曾被認為是數十年（甚至百年）一遇的重大災難。

回顧二十多年來的這些事件（這還僅僅是一部份與臺灣相關的事件），我們就會發現：巨大的天災人禍，過去曾頻繁出現，未來應該也不會少見。

當然，新冠疫情的影響範圍遠超過 SARS 與 H1N1 流感，對世界的衝擊則更大於金融海嘯。近代能與這次疫情相比的是一百年前 (1918-1920) 的全球流感大流行；據後來估計，當時全世界人口三分之一染疫，約有五千萬人因此不幸喪生。

那次流感爆發時正值第一次世界大戰末期，對當時的德軍主力造成嚴重打擊。而後疫情時代，戰敗的德國被列強宰割，奧匈帝國及奧圖曼帝國亦隨之瓦解，徹底改變了舊的國際秩序，也為後來的世局（從歐陸，到中東和亞洲）埋下許多不安定的種子。

這次新冠疫情並未伴隨著世界大戰，但出現在國際強權針鋒相對，世界產業供應鏈重整的關鍵時刻；後疫情時代因此充滿不確定性。而重組後的國際政經秩序，我不知道那會是一個「美好或不美好的新世界」*，但它就是大家必須面對的世界。那裡將充滿挑戰和機會，如何善用所學回應挑戰，如何從機會中脫穎而出，都是大家新的功課。這些功課沒有標準答案，你們必須自己解答，自己審閱答案。

我也希望利用這個機會提醒同學們，對於正在醫療前線奮戰的眾多醫護人員，其中包括了許多學校師長與大家的學長姐們，我們一定要心存感念。當疫情大浪襲來時，他們勇往直前，力挽狂瀾，不僅保護病人，也捍衛著臺灣社會。他們是真正的英雄。只要大家共同努力，疫情終會過去，我們一定會贏得抗疫的最後勝利。

最後，我謹代表所有老師和行政主管，向所有畢業同學們表達最深切的祝福，也恭喜辛苦多年的家長們。敬祝大家未來一切順利，身體健康
最後我還想講幾句話。我記得我看過一篇外國人寫的文章，他說他在臺灣多年，注意到臺灣有個很奇怪的習慣，朋友分手時都常常會說：「要小心哦」。我看到這篇文章的時候，也突然心有所感；多年來我媽媽每次看到我出門時會跟我講這句話，而後來我跟自己的小孩，也會講這樣的話。所以在畢業典禮這個時刻，我敬祝大家未來一切順利，身體健康，大家都要小心哦！

When the COVID-19 pandemic began last year, NTU was still able to hold graduation ceremonies in person but on a much smaller scale and with the absence of many faculty members, students, and parents. Earlier this year, we were hoping to gather for a traditional commencement. But the sudden outbreak in May had forced Taipei City to raise its epidemic alert level. So we postponed the Commencement and made the decision to hold the ceremony virtually. This is the first virtual Commencement in NTU history.

To our faculty, new graduates, and parents, welcome to the National Taiwan University’s Commencement celebration for the Class of 2021.

As the pandemic unfolds, digital is the new normal. While we gradually adapt to online learning, virtual meetings, social media, online shopping, and food delivery, it is inescapably disappointing for many students and parents to have to celebrate the achievements of our graduates this way after anticipating this event for four years. And because of this, the Office of Student Affairs has teamed up with the graduates to ensure that this unique virtual Commencement is a moment that everyone will remember fondly in the future.

Some of you may ask, "why does this happen just when we are graduation?" And some of you may think optimistically that once the vaccines are available and the pandemic is contained, the world will be back to normal, and that we will all live peacefully.

But the world has never been peaceful. Most of the graduates this year were born in 1999, when the magnitude 7.3 earthquake happened on September 21. Four years after, SARS broke out in Asia, including Taiwan. Within another 5 years, the financial crisis, originated in the United States, affected global economies for years. In 2009, Typhoon Morakot landed and caused severe casualties in Taiwan; the H1N1 flu pandemic took hundreds of thousands of lives. These disasters were, at the time, seen as rare catastrophes that would only take place once every few decades, or even centuries.

Looking back to the past 20 years, we’d notice that, even just in Taiwan, catastrophes have never been in short supply. And they will probably never be in the future either.

Of course, the effect of COVID is far beyond SARS and H1N1, and its impact is greater than the financial crises. What came close was the Spanish flu that took place a century ago (1918-1920), when, according to estimation, one-third of the global population was infected and about 50 million people died.

The influenza pandemic outbreak took place at the end of WWI and hit the German military especially hard. And after the pandemic, Germany was forced to cede its territories to the great powers. What followed was the fall of the Austro-Hungarian and the Ottoman Empires. The series of events reset the international order and formed the settings for many conflicts in the years to come.

While COVID did not break out during a world war, it came at a critical time when great powers bicker and the global supply chains face a reform. The post-pandemic ear is therefore full of uncertainty. I don’t know whether it’d be a "Brave New World"* once the international political and economic orders are reshuffled. But it will be a world we have to live in. There will be many challenges and opportunities, and it will be our new task to utilize what we have learned to tackle challenges and grasp opportunities. Unlike any standardize
d test, you will have to answer and grade the answers yourselves.

I also want to use this opportunity to remind the graduates, that we must have appreciation and gratitude for the healthcare workers who are on the frontlines fighting. Many of them are our faculty members and alums. When the waves of the pandemic hit, they stood up to save lives and protect Taiwan’s society. They are true heroes. As long as we work together, we will weather the crisis and win this battle.

Finally, on behalf of the faculty and management, I send you our deepest best wishes. And congratulations to the parents and families who have supported the graduates for years. I wish you success and good health.

One final thing, I remember reading an article by a foreign writer who said he had lived in Taiwan for years and had noticed that Taiwanese people have a strange habit of saying "be careful" when they part ways. When I read the article, this resonates with me from the heart. For years, my mother would say the same thing whenever I am leaving the house. Now I say the same thing to my children, too. So at this Commencement ceremony, I wish everyone great success in the future, good health, and "be careful."

1.Warner為超人尋找黑人導演和演員
2.Netflix電影活屍大軍將在電影院上映
3.Apple曾極力挽留Netflix月租的蘋果稅

J. J. Abrams 的製片公司 Bad Robot 正在為 Warner 發展一部超人電影，且已經延攬著名的作家和漫畫編劇 Ta-Nehisi Coates 撰寫劇本。早先已經傳出這個版本的超人將會由黑人演員扮演，而 Hollywood Reprter 的報導則掌握進一步消息指出 Warner 和 DC 已經面試多位黑人導演，而且這份名單上似乎與對手 Marvel 的 《Blade 刀鋒戰士》重啟版導演名單有不少重疊：包含 《Creed II 金牌拳手2》的Steven Caple Jr.、《Sleight 靈心妙手》的編劇 J.D. Dillard、剛執導第一部長片《One Night in Miam 邁阿密的一夜》的女演員Regina King 以及今年入圍奧斯卡最佳影片的《Judas and the Black Messiah 猶大與黑色彌賽亞》的 Shaka King 都是可能人選。雖然目前可能還有其他變數，但內線消息指出該劇可能會以20世紀為故事背景，並且不管 Snyder 的DC電影宇宙接下來有沒有可能在下一個階段復活，這部超人電影都將與DC電影宇宙完全切割。

一年的疫情終結了電影院產業和 Netflix 之間誓不兩立的對抗狀態，使美國第三大連鎖電影院 Cinemark 宣布將在5月14日在旗下超過250家電影院上映由 Zack Snyder 執導的最新 Netflix 電影《Army of the Dead 活屍大軍》，使影迷可以在電影上架 Netflix 前一週提早在電影院體驗到這部活屍電影。雖然另外兩家連鎖電影院品牌 AMC 和 Regal 都沒有加入放映，但加計其他小品牌和獨立電影院，將使這次上映的美國電影院數量達到600家之多，也使《活屍大軍》成為史上第一部接近大規模上映的 Netflix 電影。因為大量好萊塢片廠撤走新片，讓電影院就算能開門也沒有電影可以放映。 Cinemark 在去年就曾針對幾部 Netflix 電影做過小規模合作。顯然去年的合作經驗成功到讓他們覺得今年可以大方擁抱 Netflix 。雖然雙方都沒有說明接下來是否還會有其他合作，但推估此門一開，勢必會有更多 Netflix 電影進到電影院的宇宙，得到大規模上映的機會。對電影院業來說出身再也不是問題，只要能吸引觀眾回流的，都是好電影。

▼ 3. Internal emails reveal how badly Apple wanted to keep Netflix using in-app purchases（https://flip.it/1V4iBp）
│
因為 Apple 的 App Store 高達30%抽成的所謂蘋果稅，Netflix 自2018年之後就停止在 Apple 裝置上提供 App 內購買的選項，要求消費者跳過 Apple 直接向 Netflix 官方網站付費。這兩天打得如火如荼的 Epic Games v. Apple 官司中，意外出現了 Apple 內部郵件顯示 Apple 當年曾極力想挽留 Netflix 的 App 內購買功能繼續留下來，以免其他人起而效尤，而 App Store 將兵敗如山倒、不再成為消費者一站式訂閱各種服務的入口。曝光的文件顯示 Apple 曾一方面討論過嚴懲 Netflix，另一方面也準備提供誘因給 Netflix 留下來，比如回吐他們抽成所得，藉以用電子郵件、程式介面和實體店面的各種廣告欄位回饋 Netflix 、幫他們打廣告。這也顯示30%蘋果稅並非毫無商量餘地，Apple 會視對手談判實力夠不夠硬來決定。比方去年 Apple 在拒絕 Epic Games 繞過蘋果稅機制的同時，也在一定條件下開放讓 Amazon Prime Video 變成抽成規定的例外。

做雞著愛筅，做人著愛反
拍過難關，拍出熱情，拍出咱的前程

人，一世人，風景，無仝款

春夏秋冬，一冬兩冬，愛做就愛動
天地無限，回頭是岸，鼓聲一直響
天搖地動，風吹草動，屈勢攏相仝
心內有夢，天下無雙，鼓聲繼續響

綴我拍

鼓聲有夠猛，氣勢像海湧
拍較大聲，拍出個性，拍出咱的光榮

人，一世人，風景，家己揀


Follow My Drumbeat

Chickens have to poke for a meal.
Humans have to adapt for survival.
Beat the hardship, get your passion, beat to build our future.

As human, in a lifetime, the scenery changes.

Spring to winter, year after year. Keep doing, keep moving.
World is immense. Repent and you see the shore.
We drum and drum and drum. Heaven and earth rock.
Wind blows and grass shake. All moves alike. Dream in heart.

We're unrivaled. We drum and drum and drum. Follow me.

Drumbeat roars fierce, batters like sea waves.
Beat louder, show your style, beat to win our glory.

As human, in a lifetime, the scenery is up to you.

香港賽馬會呈獻系列 :「巨龍傳奇」展覽

恐龍於二億年前開始出現，繼而雄霸地球。在地球的漫長歲月中，盤古大陸因地殼板塊運動而分裂，形成具有不同氣候和環境的大陸，恐龍為了適應不同的環境，繁衍出形態各異的品種，並成為史上最強的動物一族。可惜由於氣候和環境的轉變，恐龍最終仍難逃滅絕的命運，在6,500萬年前完全絕跡於地球上。幸好，在古生物學家努力不懈下，已經找尋到不少恐龍及古生物化石，讓我們今天得以重塑牠們的生存點滴。恐龍化石遍佈各大洲，目前全世界已命名的恐龍多達一千多種。近年，中國在發掘和研究恐龍化石方面更取得令人鼓舞的成就，成為世界上出土恐龍化石最多的國家之一。

香港科學館曾多次舉辦恐龍展覽，每次均廣受市民歡迎，即將推出的「巨龍傳奇」展覽更是香港歷來規模最大的恐龍展。這次展覽由香港賽馬會慈善信託基金獨家贊助，展覽將透過嶄新的演譯方法，介紹世界上最大的泰坦巨龍類和有關恐龍的最新科研成果。展覽廳總面積達2,500平方米，分為四大展區，各有不同的主題和特色。

多媒體劇場： 利用大型電腦動畫，帶領觀眾穿越時空返回恐龍時代。
機械動樂園： 透過「為食恐龍」機械恐龍展**，讓觀眾全面認識恐龍的飲食習性。
化石發掘場： 展示恐龍的埋藏狀態，並讓觀眾了解發掘和修復工作的艱辛。
化石展示區： 展出來自十間博物館超過一百件珍貴化石標本和展品，配合運用
新科技設計的互動遊戲，介紹恐龍的最新發現。


要一次過欣賞長達30米、全亞洲最大的恐龍之一炳靈大夏巨龍，栩栩如生的鳥類祖先顧氏小盜龍，奇形怪趣的恐龍蛋，以及小朋友最喜愛的三角龍、暴龍和劍龍嗎？還有最新發現、可能是世界上最大的恐龍 -- 巨型汝陽龍的巨大椎骨化石？那就不要錯過「巨龍傳奇」展覽。參觀時別忘記下載特別為展覽設計的應用程式和携帶你的智能手機或平板電腦，以獲得更多樂趣和資訊。

Throughout the extended history of the Earth, there comes a time when dinosaurs first appeared about 200 million years ago and become the ultimate rulers of the planet for 130 million years. Over long periods of time, the ancient landmass Pangaea split into different continents as a result of plate tectonic movements. Dinosaurs evolved into a whole family of different species in order to adapt to the changing environment, but they ultimately could not escape from extinction and all disappeared about 65 million years ago. Thanks to the efforts of paleontologists, today we can have a glimpse of how dinosaurs survived and reigned from the large number of fossils unearthed. Dinosaur fossils can be found on all continents and more than 1,000 species have been named. Today, China has become one of the countries where most dinosaur species are discovered and many of them are unique.

The Hong Kong Science Museum had organised a number of dinosaur exhibitions and all were well received. The coming "Legends of the Giant Dinosaurs" exhibition would be the largest ever presented in Hong Kong. This exhibition is solely sponsored by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. In this exhibition, new technologies and presentation methods will be used to introduce the largest Titanosaurus and the latest studies on dinosaurs. Occupying an area of 2,500 sq. metres, the exhibition is divided into four areas with different themes:

Multimedia Theatre: The large-scale computer animations in this area will bring visitors back to the age of dinosaurs.
Animatronic Dinosaur Zoo: The robotic dinosaurs and interactive exhibits featured in the "Dino Jaws" Exhibition** will allow visitors to learn about the eating behaviours of dinosaurs.
Fossil Excavation Site: Visitors will be able to appreciate the hard work of excavation and repairing of fossils through a reconstructed dinosaurs burial site.
Fossil Gallery: More than a hundred exotic fossils and exhibits from ten museums will be displayed in this area. Together with the interactive games developed with latest technologies, visitors can learn about the latest discoveries in dinosaurs.
