喜歡白色純淨Fu❤️

從考古證據來看，白色是人類最早使用的顏色之一，在距今約兩萬年前創作的拉斯科洞窟壁畫群（The Cave Art Paintings of the Lascaux Cave）中，史前時代的人類使用方解石（calcite）與白堊石（chalk）作為白色顏料，用來當作圖畫背景或為輪廓打亮，搭配黑色的木炭及紅、黃色赭石（ochre），創作出生動的圖畫。而在古埃及，白色是代表豐饒女神伊西斯（Isis）的顏色，伊西斯的祭司會穿著白色進行儀式。

在古希臘人的世界觀中，世界由黑暗與光明構成，因此白色是一種基礎色，古羅馬學者老普林尼（Pliny the Elder）在其編撰的《博物誌》（Naturalis Historia）中記載，西元前四世紀的希臘藝術大師阿佩萊斯（Apelles）以及其他同時代的藝術家，一般只會在繪畫中使用白、紅、黃與黑四種顏色，當時的白色顏料是極具毒性的白鉛。
白色也是羅馬傳統男性正式服飾托加長袍（toga）的顏色，14至18歲的古羅馬男性公民在參加正式儀式時，會穿上全白的托加，執政官及祭司所穿的是紫邊白色鑲邊托加（toga praetexta），而到了奧古斯都（Augustus）稱帝的時代，所有男性公民都被規定必須穿上托加，才能出入羅馬廣場（Roman Forum），想要爭取公職的男性公民，則會穿上用白堊石粉末打亮的托加，這種托加名為toga candida，candere在拉丁語中的意思是發亮，這個詞也是後來英語候選人candidate、蠟燭candle，以及坦誠candid的字根；對古羅馬人來說，白色代表的是純潔、忠誠、貞潔、德行，這個概念後來也被西方文明所繼承。

駐華大使回家果然開始助選了，他說北京根本隱瞞疫情，本來在武漢就能結束的事情變成了全球大災難。

Terry阿叔以前說習大大是他老朋友，川普說Terry阿叔認識北京官場所有人，本來中方期待Terry阿叔作為雙方的和事佬，結果習大大成功的把和事佬變成鬧事佬。蒸蚌。

Asked whether he will campaign on behalf of Trump, who may be relying on Branstad to help swing key Midwestern states, the ambassador said that "if the President asks me to appear at some of his events, I will, as I did in 2016."

我會幫川穩定中西部州，就像2016那樣。

He implied that China may have taken advantage of Trump's personal relationship with Xi, saying the US President was initially willing to believe "what (China) said about the virus and then he and the rest of the world found out what they said was not true."

大使的意思是川普一開始相信了習大大，結果全世界都發現習沒說實話。

"The mistreatment of the Uyghurs, what they've done in Hong Kong and the South China Sea, they've alienated a lot of people in the rest of the world," Branstad said. "India, which has been a neutral country, what they've done to India has caused them real problems," he added, referring to ongoing tensions on the countries' shared border in the Himalayas.

「他們對維吾爾、香港、南海的行為使大家結成聯盟，印度一直是中立國，但他們惹印度就是給自己惹麻煩。」

Branstad's son Eric is a senior adviser to Trump Victory 2020, the joint fundraising committee between the campaign and the Republican National Committee, and in a recording tweeted by Eric last week, Trump said that the elder Branstad was "coming home from China because he wants to campaign."

Terry叔叔的兒子艾瑞克是川普競選團隊的資深顧問，川普說艾瑞克先前推特有說阿爸要回來助選。

The Trump campaign believes that Branstad -- as a popular former governor -- could have an impact on voters in Iowa, Wisconsin, Missouri and even Minnesota, according to two sources familiar.

因為Terry叔在愛荷華受歡迎，在威斯康辛、密蘇里、明尼蘇達都有都有影響力。

看到紐約時報這標題，精神都來了
#作息破壞者 浩爾 解析大仁哥專文

Taiwan’s Weapon Against Coronavirus: An Epidemiologist as Vice President
台灣對抗武漢肺炎的武器：流行病學家副總統

這句話，帥：

 “Evidence is more important than playing politics,” he said in a recent interview in Taiwan’s capital, Taipei.
「實證比玩政治來得重要。」他近期在台灣的首都台北受訪表示。

人物側寫這樣寫

Mr. Chen, 68, with his frizzy gray hair and a toothy smile, is known affectionately in Taiwan as “elder brother,” and many people credit him with helping the island avoid the large-scale infections and deaths from the coronavirus that have overwhelmed many countries.

好可惜竟然沒有寫他是聖墓騎士
大家都認識大仁哥，這段我就不翻譯
選幾個有意思的表達方式：

frizzy gray hair 捲捲灰髮
toothy smile 露多齒的微笑
credit him with 歸功他

He has embraced his rare dual role, using his political authority to criticize China for initially trying to conceal the virus even as the scientist in him hunkers down to analyze trends in transmission.
他擁抱自己罕見的雙重角色，一面是運用政治權威（官員身份）抨擊中國初期試圖隱匿病毒，一面則是科學家身份投身分析病毒傳播趨勢

dual 雙重的
conceal 隱藏
hunker down 蹲下，在此我引伸翻譯為投身

大仁哥の期許

Now Mr. Chen hopes Taiwan can play a leading role in helping the world recover from the virus and restart economic growth. He is overseeing efforts to develop a vaccine and produce tools like rapid coronavirus testing kits.
他期望台灣能扮演全球領導角色，幫助世界抗疫、康復，重振經濟成長。他監督著疫苗的研發，製造快篩組等工具。

recover from 康復
develop a vaccine 研發疫苗
rapid testing 快篩

面對猛烈批評，他的風度如何？

“He wears the clothing of professionalism but deviates from the rigorous precision of science and blatantly speaks nonsense and fabricates rumors,” said a recent commentary by Xinhua, China’s official news agency. “The nature of it is particularly vicious.”
中國官媒新華社近期評論：「披著專業外衣，背離科學嚴謹，公然胡說造謠，性質尤為惡劣。」

Mr. Chen laughs at the criticism.
他笑了。

“China has to be focused more on Covid-19 control rather than politics,” he said.
回應：「中國務必專注控制疫情，勝於關注政治。」

讀到這，我笑了。

很喜歡結尾

On May 20, Mr. Chen will step down as vice president. He plans to return to academia and says the coronavirus will be a focus of his research.
520，他即將卸任副總統。規劃將重返學界，且表示武漢肺炎將成他研究焦點。

academia 學術界
📝 補充：中研院的英文 Academia Sinica 是拉丁文，字面意思是中華學術院。拉丁文是後位修飾（形容詞放在名詞後面的意思，法文就有沿襲這項特色）

這段話很有智慧

“I pray to have the courage to change what we can change,” he said, noting the effort to produce better tests, drugs and vaccines. “We have to accept what we cannot change.”
「我祈禱能擁有勇氣改變我們能改變的事情」他說，意指努力產出更好的檢測、藥物以及疫苗。「我們必須接受我們無法改變的事情。」
