一個男人在星期四打破了不止一項,而是兩項世界紀錄。這位德國男子在六十個排成一直線的酒瓶上行走,打破了這項世界紀錄。 Not just one, but two world records were broken by one person on Thursday. The German man broke the record for walking on upright bottles. There were 60 of them in a line. 第二項記錄也同樣有趣。有人將飛鏢射出去,而這位德國男子就站在標靶前面。他在一分鐘內設法用徒手接住了十六個飛鏢。 The second record was just as interesting. Somebody was playing darts and the German was standing in front of the target. He caught the darts. He managed to catch 16 with his hands in one minute. 這位男子為他的成功感到非常高興,也鼓勵其他人來打破他的記錄。 The man was very happy with his success and encouraged others to beat his records.
The snog was written about songwriter
himself and his friend. At that time, he was really in a bad mood and she was
the person who really cared about him and cried, and ran on the road with him. He
said that he won’t feel relieved without her company. Although the song sounds
grief, actually it is a song with hope.

introduction of the singer:
Sodagreen(Chinese:蘇打綠;stylized assodagreen) is a
Taiwanese indie band formed in 2001. Its lineup has been unchanged since 2003.
Sodagreen emerged in the Taiwanese indie music scene after receiving the Grand
Jury Award in the Hohaiyan Gongliau Rock Festival in 2004, after which it
signed a contract withWilllin Music. The band is prominent for its
main vocalist and songwriterWu
Tsing-Fong, who is prominent for his poetic lyrics,
unique performing style and widevocal
range.
Sodagreen
was named by Shih, then the band's leader, and Wu, the lead vocalist. The band
was originally named Soda (蘇打), but Shih felt that the band needed a name
with threeChinese characters. Wu, whose favourite colour was green, suggested adding
the wordgreen (綠) behind the name, thus the band's name. In
March 2003, A-Fu and Jia-Kai, also fromNational Chengchi
University, and A-Gong fromTaipei National
University of the Artsjoined Sodagreen. The
band's line-up has remained unchanged since. In July the same year, the band
played at the Hohaiyan Gongliau Rock Festival's Hot Wave Rock section.
In June 2007, Sodagreen were awarded theBest
Band Award at the18th Golden Melody Awards.Wu Tsing-Fongalso received the highly-covetedBest
Melody Award for the song "Little Love Song", which
was also nominated for the award for the best lyrics.Little
Universe itself was nominated for the award for the best
album. In November, Sodagreen released their third album,Incomparable Beauty.
Shortly after, they held their first concert at a major venue, theAbsolutely
Beautiful Concert, which was held at
theTaipei Arena. They were the first indie band to hold a concert there.
The concert holds the record for being the longest concert ever held at the
venue, with Sodagreen playing for five hours, incurring a large fine for
playing too late into the night.
In 2009, Sodagreen began
their Vivaldi Project, planning to record and release four concept albums based
on the four seasons within two years. The band recordedDaylight of SpringinTaidungand
released it in May. They then travelled toLondonto recordSummer/Fever, releasing it in
September. Late that year, the band performed a solo concert at the Taipei
Arena for the second time, playing for two nights at theDaylight Fever Concert.
However, their plans to record albums based on the next two seasons were cut
short by keyboardist A-gong's call-up to the Taiwanese army to fulfil his
national service. Shortly after ending the Walk Together World Tour in Shanghai
on 3 August 2013, Sodagreen announced that Autumn: Stories, the
third instalment in the band's Vivaldi Project, would be released on 18
September 2013. The release of the album in September was accompanied by a
series of six live house performances in Beijing, with the tickets to these
mini-concerts selling out within ten minutes of the opening of online booking
services.
Sodagreen
is currently planning their last album in their Vivaldi Project. Like the
previous three albums, the last one will be related to the winter and Sodagreen
will choose Berlin to be the background of the albulm.

Gao and his friends are the happiest kids in the city of Galilee. Living on the rooftops of this bustling metropolis, sometimes life can be tough, but they still churn out songs all day, and dance under the stars at night. But when Gao meets his dream girl, a billboard beauty named Sian, fate takes him on a wild ride through the high and low parts of the town he loves.

Children’s risk of developing
attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) later in life may be tied to how much fish their mothers ate while
pregnant, according to a U.S. study.
Researchers writing in the Archives of
Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine found that eating at least two servings of
fish per week was linked to about a 60 percent lower risk of kids developing
certain ADHD-like symptoms.
然而,吃較多魚伴隨而來的汞含量升高,也與出現過動、衝動及不專注等症狀的風險較高有關。
But elevated mercury levels, which can also
come from eating more fish were tied to a higher risk of developing the
symptoms, such as hyperactivity, impulsiveness and inattentiveness.
The song is describing a
boy missing a girl who he can’t match on the roof at the midnight. But he won’t
just leave because he wanted to guard the beautiful scene for her.
