📢 Mighty Tech🚩
🔑 The most needed helper for the #phubber👁️
Korean students use Arduino to make a #RobotEye that can be fixed on the forehead. Through ultrasonic sensors and speakers, as long as they encounter an obstacle within one meter, a sound will sound to warn the user🛎
But the easiest way to reduce accidents is to open your eyes and take a close look at your surroundings 👀✨

[時事英文] 名副其實的世界要處：台灣

Pound for Pound, Taiwan Is the Most Important Place in the World

什麼是 「pound for pound」?

音檔: https://www.instagram.com/p/CI10jkZFgql/

★★★★★★★★★★★

The Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union perpetually threatened to spark conflict in nations all over the world, including battles over the control of a vast array of natural and industrial resources. The new Cold War, between the United States and China, is increasingly focused on access to just one industry in one place: computer chips made in Taiwan.

spark (v.) conflict 引發衝突
the control (n.) of 控制～
a vast array of 各示各樣的
computer chips 電腦晶片

美、蘇之間的冷戰永遠威脅著全世界並使各國引發衝突，諸如在控制大自然和工業資源方面的鬥爭。在美、中之間的新冷戰中，越來越多人關注一個首屈一指的產業：台灣製造的電腦晶片。

★★★★★★★★★★★

Over the past year, Taiwan has taken a lead in the race to build thinner, faster and more powerful chips, or semiconductors. Its fastest chips are the critical building blocks of rapidly evolving digital industries like artificial intelligence and high-speed computing.

take the lead in sth 在某方面領先
semiconductor 半導體
building blocks 重要的組成中心 ; 建構組元
digital industries 數位產業
artificial intelligence 人工智慧
high-speed computing 高速計算

在過去的一年中，台灣在製造更薄、更快、更強大的晶片或半導體處於領先地位；它最快的晶片在數位產業的組成佔有一席之地，其中像是快速發展的人工智慧和高速計算。

★★★★★★★★★★★

The thinnest chips will be powering the coming “internet of things,” in which homes, cars, appliances and even clothes will connect to smartphones and voice-activated speakers over 5G networks.

power (v.) 為…提供動力，驅動
the internet of things 物聯網
appliances 裝置
voice-activated (adj.) 聲控
5G networks 5G網路

最薄的晶片將為即將到來的「物聯網」提供動力，其中家庭、汽車、家電甚至衣服都將通過5G網路連接到智慧型手機和聲控喇叭。

★★★★★★★★★★★

As of now, any country looking to dominate the digital future has to buy these superfast, ultrathin chips from either Taiwan or South Korea. And Taiwan has the edge in both technology and market power.

dominate the digital future 主宰數位的未來
ultrathin chips 超薄的晶片
have an edge in 有優勢

到目前為止，任何想在未來數位科技獨領風騷的國家都必須從台灣或韓國購買這些超快速、超薄的晶片，而台灣在技術和市場力量方面都有優勢。

★★★★★★★★★★★

It is a small island of just 24 million people, but it is at the center of the battle for global technological supremacy. Pound for pound, it is the most important place in the world. As the Cold War between China and the United States intensifies, that importance will only continue to grow.

at the center of 在～的中心
the battle for global technological supremacy 全球技術龍頭之爭
pound for pound 貨真價實，名副其實，名不虛傳*
intensify 強化；增強

台灣是一個只有2400萬人的小島，但它卻是全球技術龍頭之爭的中心。這是世界上名副其實的要處。隨著中、美之間的冷戰加劇，台灣的地位只會日趨重要。

*Pound for pound 字面意思是: 同樣重量的情況下。首先出現在拳擊領域，用來形容某一重量級別的某一拳擊手在與其同級別和不同級別的拳手相比較之下的實力和價值。

★★★★★★★★★★★

Avalon這一線品牌喇叭，一直被發燒友認為是非常高階、難驅動和箱體龐大印象。全新PM系列PM1喇叭一次過打破這些印象，除了易驅動、箱體適中外，同時亦能享受Avalon的極深極闊立體音場，低音更是PM1強項，高速、高密度、拳拳到肉，想一聽PM1的效果，可以於2019年8月9-11日，在會展舉辦的高級音響展X18號房試聽，到時music-union.com的同事亦會在場幫忙講解。
