感謝 WFH，占星之門星盤的法達運勢系統，更新了！🎉

這次有 2 項更新，請容我細細為您道來：

1⃣️ 好運參考指數

AI 時代，占星之門得跟上啊！新版的好運參考指數的演算法，整個重新設計、調整配分，加強了行星的區分與後天宮位的重要度。

白話文：會更貼近現實生活的體驗！畢竟會唱歌的人，不一定就能當上歌手啊～

2⃣️ 運勢宮位

安格斯增加了運勢主星所落入的宮位、主管的宮位，幫助有心想探索自己運勢的朋友，可以直接點擊宮位連結，就能看到更深入的說明。

白話文：你不要只看幾顆星啦，您也看看到底運勢主星是作用在什麼宮位（生活領域）麻～

-

有了這兩項功能，您就可以在質化與量化兩端自由遊走。就算沒有占星基礎，也能順利地探索自己的運勢惹。

做這個功能，真的頗辛苦啊！但如果能對大眾有用、大家用的開心，小弟在一旁也覺得開心了起來。

如果您想更深入學習法達星限法，可以點擊下方連結閱讀文章喔！最後，我還是老話一句：謝謝您使用占星之門啦！

疫情持續，但學習不能中斷。

今天與同學分享Presentality最新的寫作技巧分析。

英文寫作絕對不只是將單字句型套用在模板上就好了。

用專業的寫作方法讓你的寫作有意義!

最近疫情再次高升，駐台灣的Bloomberg 記者寫了一篇文章：

Complacency Let Covid Erode Taiwan’s Only Line of Defense

自滿讓 COVID 侵蝕了台灣唯一的防線

文章：https://bloom.bg/3ywfKA9

我們來看看Bloomberg寫的一篇好文章：

★★★★★★★★★★★★

📌 結構：當調查故事寫

這篇文章讀起來一點都不無聊，不只是因為它攸關我們的社會，也是因為他在結構上，就像一個偵探調查的故事：

1. Opening line: 戲劇性開場，不要無聊
2. Background: 然後再給簡短背景
3. Key moment: 影響後續發展最關鍵的事件
4. Outcome: 這個決定的後果
5. What to do: 國際專家建議應該怎麼做
6. But.....: 可惜，可能做不到
7. Details: 後面的部分，再進入細節

★★★★★★★★★★★★

📌 最好的開頭 = 簡短有力、抓住注意力、又可以做結論

我們先來看開頭三段：

All the virus had to do was get through the border.

Until this week, Taiwan’s Covid-19 containment appeared to be so effective that virtually no other defenses were put in place: few tests, no local surveillance to pick up undetected infection and close to zero vaccination.

Lauded as one of most successful places in the world at containment, a high level of complacency about the risks had set in among both the public and authorities. Covid-19 seemed to be something happening only in the outside world.

如果是我們認識大部分的人來寫，通常會從第二段開始。為什麼？因為總是要解釋背景嘛！而且任何人在研究這個議題，都會從背景開始教育自己，所以就不自覺的從背景寫起。

但他們不這麼做，反而以一個吸引人的方式開頭：
All the virus had to do was get through the border.

這個開頭有幾個優點：
•簡短一行，讓人不會看到一大坨字就不想要繼續看
•有故事性：好像病毒是一個入侵的敵人
•又是結論：怎麼會發生？一旦病毒溜進來了，就會發生

這種是非常理想的開頭：因為就算我沒有時間看剩下的，也會理解到文章的重點：邊境守的很嚴，但是裡面很鬆散。

第一句，下的太好了。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

📌 給一點背景後，馬上提到關鍵一個決定

記者們解釋背景的篇幅，就只有三段。他們很快就鎖定關鍵的一個 (錯誤) 決定：

The virus’s opening was an ill-fated decision on April 15 to shorten quarantine for airline crew to just three days, as carriers struggled to operate their cargo lines with staff undergoing 14-day isolation periods. Infected pilots introduced a more transmissible U.K. variant, whose spread was then accelerated through a network of “hostess bars” -- places both staff and patrons were reluctant to be associated with, making contact tracing more difficult.

如果他們再花 1-2 段解釋背景，文章就會變得有點無聊，會流失讀者。

所以他們在這裡提到關鍵的失策。

📌 Note：寫作語氣相對正式

這幾位記者，也許是受 Bloomberg 整體風格影響，還算正式。

從哪邊看的出來呢？

The virus's opening was an ill-fated decision...

輕鬆口語化的文章，絕對不會用 "ill-fated" (ill 就是生病/不好嘛，fate 就是命運，所以就是「之後的命運不好」的一個決定。這是一個很不錯的字就是了。

另一個例子，看這句：

Infected pilots introduced a more transmissible U.K. variant, whose spread was then accelerated through a network of “hostess bars” -- places both staff and patrons were reluctant to be associated with, making contact tracing more difficult.

哇噻，尤其 "reluctant to be associated with"，好。。。委婉啊

怎麼樣寫的平易近人一點？

Infected pilots carried a more transmissible U.K. variant, which then spread quickly through a network of "hostess bars". This also made contact tracing harder — because staff and customers didn't want to admit that they worked at or visited these bars.

稍微長一點，但是用的字都比較直白簡單。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

📌 強調嚴重性

這個失策跟破口，有多嚴重的後果？

Taiwan reported 267 new infections Wednesday, bringing the total over the past few days to 1,291 -- a small number in global terms but an astonishing one in a place that, before May 1, had posted just 1,132 cases during the entire pandemic.

The surge from zero to quadruple digits signals that undetected spread has been occurring for months, and concern is now growing that Taiwan will go the way of other cautionary tales, from the outbreak last year in Australia’s Victoria state that took a brutal three-month lockdown to quell, to Thailand’s ongoing surge driven by prison clusters.

"The surge from zero to quadruple"

這邊，寫的非常好，因為雖然不是真正的 rhyme，還是聽起來很近，所以有節奏感。

"Go the way of other cautionary tales" 又是一個文筆很好的寫法，就是「變得跟那些拿來警惕大家的故事一樣」的意思。

但是記得，別在聊天的時候用這些啊，對方會覺得你很奇怪。

這邊他們把最壞的可能性帶進來：就是台灣可能變得跟那些 cautionary tales 一樣。

這邊也讓讀者緊張起來。

但因為他們寫 "concern is now growing..."，又沒有說「誰的 concern」，所以應該要馬上帶具有可信度的 source 進來：

“If they have 300 diagnosed cases, they have 3,000 cases in the community -- they just don’t know it.” said Gregory Poland, a virologist and director of the Mayo Clinic’s Vaccine Research Group. “It’s going to require a hard lockdown, what’s called a circuit-breaker approach, and then getting the vaccine out as quickly as they can.”

這樣就比較有可信度了，也指出一個解決的可能性：lock down，然後疫苗。

但是...

【打好個底】養好脾，防病能力自然高

#每日一米水養好脾胃
#切勿胡亂使用偏方
#星期三CheckCheckMail

健脾祛濕防肺炎
朱師奶：「最近群組瘋傳各式各樣可預防新型冠狀病毒的偏方，是否大人小朋友都適合用？」

CheckCheckCin：中醫主張辨證論治，意思是根據症狀辨清病因及治療方案，每個人體質不同，沒有一條藥方可以適合所有人，所以不建議胡亂使用偏方，有可能治病不成反而加重病情。想強身防病，可以從健脾祛濕著手，香港人普遍多痰濕，主要因為嗜吃生冷甜膩食物、常躲在冷氣房、久坐不動，加上氣候潮濕，如果你發現舌頭白色濕潤黏膩、大便黏馬桶又異常地臭、常感到疲倦及胸悶胃脹，就是身體有濕的警號。
「脾主運化」，只要脾功能良好，就能運化水濕，令濕氣不易囤積。建議平日少吃油膩、生冷食物、凍飲及甜品，多吃健脾化濕的食物如白米、赤小豆、淮山、薏米、扁豆衣、番薯等，每天飲一杯米水，都可以有助強健脾胃，驅走濕氣。定時做適量運動，亦有助身體排汗祛濕。

藿香豆蔻陳皮茶
功效：化濕行氣，理氣健脾，紓緩因為痰濕引致頭身困重、疲倦不堪的症狀。 
材料：藿香6克、白豆蔻3克、陳皮1角
做法：材料洗淨，鍋中加入約800毫升水，加入材料，武火煮滾後調中火煮約20分鐘即可。建議一星期連續飲用3天。
備註：陰虛人士不宜飲用。

Strengthen the spleen to dispel dampness to prevent pneumonia
“There have been a lot of various online rumors about how to prevent against Covid-19. Are they suitable for all ages?”

CheckCheckCin: Chinese medicine states that you need to find out the cause and correct treatment according to the symptoms. Everyone has different body conditions. There is no singular formula that is suitable for everyone. Therefore, it is not recommended to use folk medicine indiscriminately. If you want to strengthen your body and prevent disease, you can start with strengthening the spleen and dispelling dampness. People in Hong Kong generally have phlegm and dampness body type because they like to eat cold/raw and oily food, spend significant time in air-conditioned rooms, sit without moving for long periods of time, and climate is humid. If you find that your tongue is white, damp and sticky, your stool sticks to the toilet and is unusually smelly, you feel fatigue, chest tightness, stomach bloating, those are the warning signs that there is dampness in the body. 
The spleen transports fluid to ensure dampness does not stagnate in the body. Have less oily and cold/raw food, drink and dessert. Eat more ingredients that can strengthen the spleen and dispel dampness such as rice, rice bean, Chinese yam, coix seeds, hyacinth bean coat and sweet potato. Drink a cup of rice water daily to strengthen the spleen and stomach to dispel dampness. Exercising regularly can also help encourage sweating and dispel dampness.

Patchouli tea with cardamom and dried citrus peel
Effects: dispels dampness and promotes qi circulation, regulates qi and strengthens the spleen, relieves relieve heaviness of head and body, fatigue due to phlegm and dampness
Ingredients: 6g patchouli, 3g cardamom, 1 dried citrus peel
Preparation: Rinse all ingredients thoroughly. Combine all ingredients with 800ml of water and cook on high heat until boiling. Turn to medium heat and cook for another 20 minutes.
For best results, drink consecutively for 3 days a week.
Note: Not suitable for those with yin deficiency

I've always wanted to dance in the summer, but I couldn't catch the end of the summer~ I fell in love with the songs and dances last summer and was planning to post them this summer, but end up editing in the fall.I would like to show you the transformation of the companionship from childhood to adulthood, from youth to maturity... 4 periods of companionship, 4 different styles of dating, many interesting images and small designs, I don't know if I can express my own feelings properly... Anyway, I hope this companionship will continue forever, and I want to accompany you in various interesting ways.

この曲は去年夏の時に好きになった曲です、夏の時に夏をぴったりな曲を踊りたいですが、いつも間に合わなくて、やっと今年が完成しました！(投稿した今は秋だけどw笑)。動画の中でちょっとした仕組みを仕掛けしましたよ！四つの時期があって、小さい頃から大人になり、四つの違う雰囲気な服を着てデート気分のような仕組みを仕掛けましたw
ちゃんと伝わったのかな？
みんなが私をずっと応援したのお陰でここまで出来ました。これからも色んな形を変えて、頑張るので、これからもよろしくお願いします(*´꒳`*)

总是想在夏天跳一次夏天味道清爽快乐的舞，但每次都抓不住夏天的尾巴～ 去年夏天喜欢上的歌和舞，准备着想在今年夏天发，结果后期到秋天，自己也构思着想给大家看到一个从小到大，从稚嫩到成熟的陪伴的转变～四个时期的陪伴，四种不同风格的约会，有很多有意思的画面和小设计，不知道有没有好好表达出自己的心情～总之希望这份陪伴可以一直继续下去，想用各种各样有趣的形式陪伴着你们～

徐天佑及陳奐仁首支合作新歌《Fart》，電子曲風加上Rap的元素都是二人喜歡的音樂風格。今次《Fart》一曲，徐天佑由主唱退居幕後成為監製，更參與編曲、作曲部份，亦充當MV導演；資深監製陳奐仁負責曲詞編監之餘，更擔起主唱部份，完美演繹一這首玩味十足的電子歌曲，二人身份互換，迸發出不少火花。

因為一次電影合作中飾演情侶，陳奐仁、徐天佑二人一拍即合，更發現彼此皆喜歡EDM音樂，Hanjin聽完天佑創作的Beats，非常喜歡，所以促成今次合作，交流創作心得。

做這首歌一邊娛樂人，一邊娛樂自己，所以整件事也務求好玩、有趣！
二人將肚痛、放屁難忍的真實一刻放進歌詞，剛好「放屁」一詞在國語的意思，也在諷刺一胡說八道、言詞誇張的人，經常「吹水」來包裝一切，所以用開玩笑的方式來比喻有話應該直說。
其實想放屁是身體一個尋常、誠實的訊號，每個人都一樣，不需要感到尷尬，正如說話不需繞圈子來掩飾真實，要放膽、放聲的說出自己牢困在內的心聲「有屁就放，有話直說」！

《Fart》
曲：陳奐仁、徐天佑
詞：陳奐仁
編：徐天佑、陳奐仁
監：陳奐仁、徐天佑
唱：陳奐仁feat. 徐天佑
