/ August 13, 2020 World's Largest Firework Put Splendid Reddish Hue in Sky . Summary: It must have been such a surreal sight when the darkness of the evening was in an instant dispelled as the world’s largest firework, weighing nearly 1200kg and produced for the yearly winter carnival of an American city, exploded high above like a sun and dyed the entire sky crimson.  As the old challenge was completed, the new challenge of breaking this newly set record has begun. . Language Enhancement: Surreal (adj.)(超現實的) Surreal 是 strange 的眾多近義字之一，但它的意思正面得多，尤指描述對象簡直是只會在夢境才會出現那樣，可與 experience、landscape、imagery 等搭配。 e.g. Living in the North Pole must be a surreal experience, when there’s no clear boundary between days and nights. e.g. These pillar rock formations are simply surreal. ————————————————— 想每日睇新聞🗞，學英文📚🔠？ 快啲 follow @k.e.n.joy 及 bookmark ————————————————— #english #news #englishinnews #newsoftheday #language #enhancement #dse #kennethlau #kenjoy #英文 #時事英文熱點 #2022dse #2020dse #2021dse #dsefighter #dseenglish #dse2020 #dsefighter #2021dsefighter #2020dsefighter #dseeng #hkdse #hkdseenglish #20200813

/ August 4, 2020 Canadian Doctor Rocks Addiction Treatment to its Foundations . Summary: Not why, but what – what caused them pain and suffering so unbearable that they indulge themselves into something uncontrollably, proposed Gabor Mate, a Canadian doctor whose latest theory on addiction may shake our entire view of addiction to its foundations.  No one is born to be willing to be an addict; it is a way to cope with traumas, so the question we ask them should be: could you tell me what made you so upset? . Language Enhancement: Rock/Shake sth. to its foundations (idm.)(徹底動搖) Foundations (n.) 是「地基／基礎」，而 rock (v.) 和 shake (v.) 都是「搖動」，因此這習語意思是把某做法或看法從根基徹底改變。改寫為 rock/shake the foundations of sth. 也可以。 e.g. The discovery of this new species has rocked the foundations of the essential conditions of life formation – it turns out organisms can survive without oxygen. e.g. The recent protest has rocked the pro-government faction to its foundation. ————————————————— 想每日睇新聞🗞，學英文📚🔠？ 快啲 follow @k.e.n.joy 及 bookmark ————————————————— #english #news #englishinnews #newsoftheday #language #enhancement #dse #kennethlau #kenjoy #英文 #時事英文熱點 #2022dse #2020dse #2021dse #dsefighter #dseenglish #dse2020 #dsefighter #2021dsefighter #2020dsefighter #dseeng #hkdse #hkdseenglish #20200804

The Brazilian, therefore, decided to annihilate the underground nest of the bugs once and for all. He intended to burn the hole with gasoline and after repeated attempts to start a fire by tossing matches into it, the whole garden exploded. And the insects were not even completely destroyed. . Language Enhancement: once and for all (idm.) (完全地) once and for all 解作「完全地」，是類似 completely 的意思，不過語氣更強烈，就像中文的「一了百了」。 e.g. The new measure will resolve the matter once and for all. e.g. She has decided, once and for all, to leave her overbearing parents. ————————————————— 想每日睇新聞🗞，學英文📚🔠？ 快啲 follow @k.e.n.joy 及 bookmark ————————————————— #english #news #englishinnews #newsoftheday #language #enhancement #dse #kennethlau #kenjoy #英文 #時事英文熱點 #2022dse #2020dse #2021dse #dsefighter #dseenglish #dse2020 #dsefighter #2021dsefighter #2020dsefighter #dseeng #hkdse #hkdseenglish #20200714
