來源:BBC News ━━━━━━ 📌 今天的新聞在說什麼? ━━━━━━ Trump 剛宣布以色列不會攻打貝魯特、停火即將到來,BBC 記者 John Sudworth 在貝魯特的鏡頭前,居民已經在打包撤離了。Netanyahu 同一天下令轟炸 Hezbollah 大本營 Dahieh 區,宣布要打「貝魯特的恐怖主義目標」。停火才宣布幾個小時,砲火又開了。自這場戰爭開始以來,伊朗已攻擊美國在中東的 20 處軍事設施,比官方公布的多得多。 波斯灣也在升溫。美國對伊朗的雷達設施和指揮中心發動空襲,伊朗說那是自衛、回擊美國基地,科威特上空攔截到兩枚伊朗彈道飛彈。一艘貨船在伊拉克海岸附近被不明飛彈擊中爆炸。Hezbollah 繼續對以色列北部發射火箭和無人機,當地居民說只靠吃藥才撐得下去,每天跑防空洞已經是日常。 BBC 白宮記者 Sarah Smith 說,Trump 近幾天的聲明讓人「suffer whiplash」。幾小時前他說「長時間沉默可能是好主意」,幾小時後貼文說談判「正以驚人速度推進」。美國每加侖汽油已超過 4 美元,選民開始把帳算到 Trump 身上。Sarah Smith 最後說:「每次 Trump 宣布協議就快成了,結果一次都沒成。」 Trump declared a ceasefire was imminent and Israel would not strike Beirut — but Netanyahu ordered attacks on Hezbollah's Dahieh stronghold hours later. In the Gulf, the US struck Iranian radar and command sites, Iran fired ballistic missiles at a US base in Kuwait, and a cargo ship was hit by an unknown projectile near Iraq. White House correspondent Sarah Smith described Trump's contradictory statements as enough to give you whiplash — and for all the times he has said a deal was on the verge of being agreed, none has yet emerged. ━━━━━━ 🔑 從這則新聞學英文 ━━━━━━ 1️⃣ tit-for-tat(慣用語) 「以牙還牙、一打換一打」,形容雙方不停互相回擊的循環,誰也不願先退。 出現情境:記者描述美伊在波斯灣的衝突時說 "the tempo of tit-for-tat exchanges in the Gulf is rising",這個詞把那種沒有盡頭的來回說得很準。 日常用法:"They keep sending each other passive-aggressive messages — total tit-for-tat at this point." (他們一直互發冷嘲熱諷的訊息,完全就是在以牙還牙。) 2️⃣ on the verge of(介系詞片語) 「就快要、在...的邊緣上」,表示某件事幾乎要發生了,就差那麼一步。 出現情境:Sarah Smith 說 Trump 一再聲稱協議就快成了,用的就是 "on the verge of agreeing a deal",語氣諷刺地說每次都沒成。 日常用法:"I was on the verge of quitting when they finally gave me the promotion." (他們終於升我職的時候,我都快辭職了。) 3️⃣ thin on the ground(慣用語) 「稀缺、幾乎找不到」,字面是「地上薄薄一層」,用來說某樣東西非常少。 出現情境:記者說停火協議要成功需要信任和冷靜,但 "for now both seem thin on the ground",兩樣都缺。 日常用法:"Good apartments at this price are pretty thin on the ground right now." (現在這個價位的好公寓真的很少見。) ━━━━━━ 📖 單字學習:5 Words from Today ━━━━━━ 1.ceasefire(名詞) 意思:停火協議,交戰雙方同意暫停戰鬥的安排 影片原句:"a ceasefire is fast becoming an exchange of fire" → 記者說這場戰爭裡停火正在快速變成另一輪交火,對比本身就是新聞

Today I'm switching from IELTS to PTE. Everyone says PTE is better for intensive preparation in a shorter time.

I went to the area near Chin Mei in Taichung today. The ice cream at Gong Yuan Eye Clinic was absolutely delicious! The flavor was incredibly rich.

@Syuan-ling Zeng The pistachio flavor is absolutely delicious! It's not too sweet at all, only about 20% sweetness, and has a very rich nutty aroma.

I went rock climbing today and realized how weak my muscles are 🤣 It felt so good to sweat! It's been so long since I've exercised with friends.
