Dear Readers,
It’s a brand new month. Are you excited? Every month brings wonderful
possibilities to learn new things. Do you look at life that way? Or do you worry
about all the bad things that could happen? Your attitude about life really does
matter. Badminton star Chou Tien-Chen agrees. He reminds
us of the importance of keeping a good attitude. You can read
about him this month in Studio Classroom starting on page 12.
Of course bad things do happen sometimes. Our teacher Doris
experienced a terrible earthquake in Hualien. She tells a story
about it, so be sure to read that article on page 32! And if you
loved the movie La La Land, we take you on a tour of LA to visit
locations from the movie beginning on page 44. It’s a fun way to
see an exciting city in a different way.
But most of all this month, we celebrate Easter on April 21. Millions of Christians
honor and recognize Jesus Christ’s resurrection from the dead.They look forward
to his promise of eternal life for all who believe in Him. I hope you will go to
church on Easter and learn more about the promise. God loves you and wants you
to be with Him forever. That’s not just a dream – it’s real!
I hope you are looking forward to exciting things this month. Join us each day
in class and learn something new.You’ll be glad you did.
Your Friend for Life,

s we go through life, interesting and
exciting experiences can test our limits.
Sometimes our adventures can even
leave us feeling frightened. This was certainly the
case for me one day in 1951. One early morning I
was awakened with quite a shock. The earth was
trembling below me and the roof was swaying
up above. It was an earthquake!
I was living on the outskirts of Hualien City
05 in a remote mountain town at the time of the
quake. Many of the buildings had been built on a
riverbed. People feared that if a strong

Q by Doris Brougham

earthquake occurred, the entire city
would be left in ruin. As all of us
ran to higher ground for safety, we
wondered if that terrible moment had
come. All of the shaking caused a
great deal of devastation. Homes
collapsed, families lost loved ones
and the ground opened up in great
cracks all around us.

Usage Tip
As we go through life, interesting and exciting
experiences can test our limits. (p. 32, line 1)
單字 test 在此為動詞的用法，有「測試；考驗」之意。Test
someone’s limits 意指某事件或經驗的發生迫使人離開原本的
舒適圈，直接考驗人的能耐極限。
• Being new parents certainly seemed to be testing the
young couple’s limits.

using the largest operational launch vehicle, the Delta IV Heavy, the Parker

In the novel, Jane is a plain,
quiet orphan who lives with
her aunt and cousins. They
are very cruel to her and treat
her horribly. Her cousin John in 05
particular hates her. After one
serious fight with him, Jane is
sent to a strict boarding school.
There she discovers a love of
learning in spite of the cruel 10

turns 18, she leaves the school
and becomes a governess. She
is hired to go to Thornfield Hall
to educate a little French girl named Adele. She
is the ward of the master of the house named
Mr. Rochester. He is a very rich and mysterious
man. At first Jane does not like Mr. Rochester.
She finds him moody and cruel. But they start
to grow closer and eventually fall in love. Mr.
Rochester proposes to Jane, and she accepts.
Charlotte Bronte
She had two sisters who lived to adulthood,
Anne and Emily. All three were writers.
She published the novel Jane Eyre under the
name Currer Bell. She thought she would
have more success if the public thought she
was a man.
Even her publisher didn’t know Currer Bell
was a woman.
As a child, Charlotte attended a horrible
boarding school. Jane’s boarding school
experience was drawn from those memories.
Like Jane in the novel, Charlotte worked as a
governess for a time.
She wrote the novel while caring for her
blind father.

Discussion questions:
YDo you think Jane is a strong female character? Why or why not?
YWhat characteristic do you like most about Jane?
YWhy do you think Jane’s aunt and cousins treated her cruelly?
YWhat is a governess? Would you like to be one?
YWhat was Mr. Rochester’s secret?

YIf you were Jane, would you marry Mr. Rochester?
YWhy did Jane run away from Thornfield and Mr. Rochester?

Their wedding day is anything but happy. It is
revealed that Rochester is already married. He
does not love the woman, Bertha, who is insane.
20 But to keep her out of a mental institution he
confined her to the attic of Thornfield Hall. Jane
is heartbroken and runs away from Thornfield.
She wanders for days without food or money.
She is finally taken in by two sisters, Diana and
Mary, and their impassive older brother St. John.

III. Reading Comprehension ኍᜄ୏༲
In August 2018, NASA launched a new probe into
space. Instead of heading out to explore deep space,
it headed to the center of our solar system. Called the
Parker Solar Probe, it will make 24 orbits of the sun.
Each time, the probe will pass closer and closer to the
star that gives Earth light and heat. At the closest point
to the sun in its orbit, it will take measurements that
will help scientists better understand the nature of the
sun.
The Parker Probe is constructed in such a way that
it is able to withstand flying directly into the sun’s
corona. The heat shield on the probe experiences
temperatures up to 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit (1,371
degrees Celsius), but the internal instruments remain
at around room temperature. The Parker Probe
accomplishes this by pointing its shield directly toward
the sun.
The probe flew close to the sun for the first time on
November 6, traveling at up to 375,000 miles per hour.
While it was taking measurements, it passed behind
the sun. Because it was on the opposite side of the sun
from Earth, it could not send the measurements back
to scientists on our planet. When the probe finally
appeared from behind the sun on December 7, it was
able to send its information. It also began sending
photographs that its cameras had taken of the sun’s
corona, showing it in more detail than scientists had
ever seen before.
For years, scientists have known that the sun’s
corona is about 300 times hotter than the sun’s
surface. Scientists don’t understand why this huge
temperature difference exists. They hope that the data
and photographs they get from the Parker Solar Probe
will help solve this mystery.

言行一致
最好的領袖坐而言，起而行。最糟糕的領袖則應了這
句話，「說一套，做一套。」
對於那些自認不需要真正了解自己領導機構的領袖而
言，更是如此。有些主管並未將成為所處產業界的專家視
為優先目標；反而以自身的頭銜作為避免過度深入工作的
藉口。
開明、信實、可靠
身為領導者可能犯的最大錯誤，就是破壞別人對你的
信任。特別是機構的負責人，一定會碰到下屬前來傾吐感

要告知公司關於員工個人的私事。那是快速破壞信任的方
式。

目標高遠 指令清楚
作為領導者，在設定實際執行面目標時，必須審慎而
行，且同時囊括讓員工值得奮力一搏的標的。不同於一般
的看法，員工們其實很想努力打拼，成為創建特別事物的
一分子。
不要害怕分享遠大的願景。

為了保護公司文化，你必須全盤掌握壓力極大時仍能
保持冷靜的這門藝術。一旦你有了情緒性的反應，便是昭

反之，試著將壓力時刻看作是體現耐心、理解和專注
的時機。當其他人都倍感緊張時，讓他們見識一下另一種
處理問題的方式。
持續自我成長
有些人成為領袖，是因為本身聰穎出色、才華洋溢，
且有本事持續自我訓練成長。
然後，他們停了下來。他們晉升到當權者階段，便認

為了持續待在最重要的位置，你就必須持續培養灌溉

沒辦法和別人融洽相處；因此，他陸陸續續換了許多寄養
家庭。比利最新的這個寄養家庭看起來還不錯，不過他沒
啥興趣和自己的新「手足」做朋友。雖然比利努力想裝出
一副強悍青少年的模樣，但在他內心深處其實很關心旁
人。這一點在他看見自己的寄養家庭弟弟弗雷迪在學校遭
到霸凌時，清楚展現了出來。比利挺身而出保護弗雷迪，
於是那群惡霸便決定追打比利。比利逃進地鐵，沒想到卻
發現自己搭上了魔法列車！他顯現出的「善行」吸引了人
稱「巫師」的陌生男子注意。巫師認為比利擁有成為超級
英雄所需要的心。藉由說出「沙贊！」這個名字，比利就
能變身成為和超人一樣強大的人物！

自 從一九五八年《雙人網球》這個簡單的遊戲問世
以來，電動玩具已取得長足的發展。今時今日，
電子遊戲已然成為一巨大產業，擁有全世界二十億以上的
活躍玩家。現今玩家無不預期遊戲要有驚人的圖像畫面，
以及能讓多人同時參與的功能。無法滿足這些條件的遊
戲，很快就會失寵慘遭淘汰。
和他人同時玩電動還意味著得投資一些金錢在自己的
電玩裝置上。老舊、速度緩慢或者廉價的硬體都應付不了
最新進的遊戲；這一點在用電腦、遊戲機或是行動裝置玩
遊戲上都是無法否認的事實。不過，微軟有一項計畫，也

xCloud 計畫登場
過去六年來，微軟一直在研發能讓大眾利用雲端服
務玩遊戲的功能。串流 xCloud 遊戲不需要安裝在自己的裝
置上。加入串流遊戲所需要的，就僅是能快速連線的網
路、一個顯示螢幕以及某種控制器。在遊戲世界裡，這是
全然革命性的做法。大多數電動玩具都只專屬一種遊戲系
統，例如任天堂的《瑪利歐兄弟》，或是 Xbox 廣受喜愛的
《最後一戰》系列。串流服務很可能將大幅提高多人遊戲
受人喜愛的程度。

正視挑戰
要促使雲端電子遊戲成功，還存在著許多障礙，尤其
像《最後一戰》這種步調快速的遊戲。競賽性遊戲需要迅
速且反應靈敏的控制按鈕才能跟上遊戲中的動作。至於行
動裝置，xCloud 遊戲將會有觸控螢幕的操縱裝置。如果想
擁有比較像玩遊戲機的體驗，玩家可以用藍牙將智慧型手
機與Xbox控制器連線。
更具挑戰性的一個問題是，使用者與網路之間傳遞訊
號的時間。遊戲滯後，也就是玩家動作與遊戲回應之間的
延遲，會令人深感挫折。諸如 YouTube 或 Netflix 等非遊戲
串流的服務，只需擔心將資訊從自己的伺服器傳送到使用
者裝置所需花費的時間；遊戲串流則必須考慮到全球各地
這項挑戰的獨一地位。
面對對手
微軟早有一套策略性部署於全球各地的伺服器網絡。
微軟也已研發出一種方式，能將 Xbox 遊戲機所使用的既有
高階科技集中於自己的伺服器系統。憑藉著既有的伺服器

的事情開始著手。
不要孤軍奮戰
大學入學申請程序看起來嚇人，尤其在你得獨自面對
的時候。然而幸運的是，你無須感到孤立無援。你可以和
信任的老師談談，針對選擇學校以及應考策略尋求協助。
好老師很關心學生，都希望學生能順利成功。

從未讀過大學，他們仍然很關心你。倚靠他們，能得到情

妥善照護健康
你也許會覺得自己沒有足夠的時間睡覺、運動或是
攝取營養食物。但事實上，如果你夠健康就能有敏捷的思

降低心臟疾病的風險。
除了與健康相關的益處之外，跑步還有其他好處。你
在任何地方幾乎都能跑步；不需擁有健身房會員資格或是
昂貴的健身器材。綜合這些原因，跑步是許多人最喜歡的
運動方式。
如果你想跑步，該從何開始呢？若是你已經有一段
時間沒運動了，應該先詢問醫生的意見。醫生會告知你是
否夠健康，足以著手進行一項新的運動計畫。如果醫生許
可，那麼你就可以準備開跑囉！
13
下一步是？
挑一雙好的跑鞋。價格不用昂貴；只需給予雙腳好的
支撐力即可。
找個同伴一起跑。同伴能在你不想運動的日子激勵
你。如果無法找到喜歡跑步的朋友，就帶著你的狗一起跑

西的紐華克飛往新加坡探望家人。克里斯也想一
起同行。但是，兩人對於到底要訂直飛班機還是得停留轉
機的航班，遲遲無法取得共識。
法蘭西斯：嘿，克里斯。我剛剛找到飛新加坡最棒的航班
了。
克 里 斯：太好了。我看看。什麼？你在開玩笑嗎！你選
的航班是十九個小時的耶！
法蘭西斯：是啊，這是紐華克直飛新加坡的班機。是不是
很棒？
克 里 斯：要我搭飛行十九個小時的航班，門都沒有。我
連飛六個小時的班機都不想搭了。

留個一次或兩次的班機會便宜一點。而且我們
還可以下飛機，活動一下筋骨。
法蘭西斯：這裡就有一班中途停留兩次的班機。我們如果
搭這班，飛到新加坡就要三十九個小時。想都
別想！時間也是金錢啊。
克 里 斯：我倒是不介意在機場消磨時間。那是把航程分

克 里 斯：喔，可我不想連續十九個小時待在飛機上。有
太多健康風險了。
法蘭西斯：健康風險？你也擔心得太多了吧。只要帶些抗
菌的洗手液就好了。如果真的擔心感染什麼，
可以戴口罩啊。
克 里 斯：這些建議倒是不錯。不過還有一個問題。要是
我劃到很爛的座位，完全沒有空間伸腳，又或
是夾在中間的座位，那怎麼辦？那鐵定就是非
常漫長的十九個小時了。
法蘭西斯：嗯，如果我們夠早買機票，就可以選到好座
位。我們可以都選靠走道的座位，隔著走道坐
在隔壁。那樣我們就都會有伸展雙腿的空間
了。
克 里 斯：我想那應該行得通。
法蘭西斯：不過，即便是坐中間的座位也好過額外的安檢
檢查。你得脫掉鞋子、掏光口袋，然後走過金
屬探測門，全部都得再做一次。
克 里 斯：中途停留時不見得每次都得進行安檢。
法蘭西斯：或許吧。不過我並不想碰運氣。
克 里 斯：我想我們可以尊重彼此有不同意見的權利。
法蘭西斯：好啊。我們就選直飛新加坡的航班，然後回程
搭要中途停留轉機的班機。這樣我們就能知道
哪一種比較好。

Trying Times
艱難時刻
撼天強震驚魂記
17
細 數人的一生，怪異有趣以及驚險刺激的經驗常能
考驗我們的能耐極限。有時候，我們的驚險遭遇
甚至會讓我們心有餘悸。對我來說，一九五一年的某一天
就是如此。那年的某個清晨，我被驚醒。大地在我之下震
動，而屋頂則在我之上搖晃。是地震！
地震發生時，我是住在花蓮市郊一個偏遠的山中小
鎮。那裡許多建築物都是蓋在河床上。大家當時都很擔心
萬一強震發生，整個城鎮都會變成一片廢墟。我們為了安
全的緣故全部都往高處跑，一邊在心中想著，那可怕的一
刻是不是已然來到。那一場地動天搖造成極大的破壞；房
屋倒塌、家庭破碎，而我們周圍的地面全都裂出巨大的開
口。
18
面對不幸是一件很困難的事，特別在生命中那些痛苦
時刻發生之際。不過，上帝能幫助我們、保護我們，即便
在我們最黑暗的日子裡。當我們聽到整棟小學校舍全毀的
時候，我們在花蓮的所有人都體會到這一點。很幸運地，
當時地震是發生在一大清早，在所有學生進入教室之前。
我們聽聞學校大樓沒能撐過這場災難，感到非常遺憾；但
得知學生們都逃過一劫，則大大鬆了一口氣！
雖然我的房子依然矗立著，但是很多鄰居都失去了自
己的家園。我為他們感到心碎不捨。許多家庭聚集在我的
家裡，一起等待可怕的餘震平息。雖然大家的心因悲痛而
沈重，但是能聚在一起著實有助於療癒些許內心的傷口。
雖然當時感覺大地似乎永遠不會安定下來、不再搖
晃，但是上帝平靜了我們的心。是上帝在這次可怕的經歷
中，從頭到尾，撫慰著我們。
那次地震驚擾的不只是人類！即使動物也受了不少
驚嚇。我在廚房裡發現一條六英尺長的蛇，還真的是令
人大吃一驚！

帕克太陽探測器
與太陽的親密接觸

二 ○一八年八月，美國國家航空暨太空總署發射一
枚新的探測器到太空。不過，該探測器並非前往
探索太空深處，而是朝著我們太陽系的中心飛去。帕克太
陽探測器將在接下來的七年裡繞日運行二十四次。每一次
運行，探測器都會愈飛愈靠近這顆提供地球光與熱的恆
星。運行至繞日軌道上最接近太陽的那一點，探測器便會
進行些許測量，以利科學家進一步了解太陽的本質。
帕克太陽探測器的建造方式使它得以承受住直接飛
進太陽日冕。探測器上的隔熱屏將經歷高達華氏兩千五百
度、攝氏一千三百七十一度的溫度，但是探測器內的儀器
卻能維持在室溫上下。帕克太陽探測器藉由維持隔熱屏的
方向，使其始終正對太陽而成功維持溫度。由於靠近太陽
時，探測器將無法與地球維持聯繫，因此它得自行調整到
正確的位置。隨著每一次軌道運行，科學家想必都極其焦
急地等待探測器返回正確位置，以便進行情況報告並開始
傳送資料。

帕克號的任務中，很重要的一項便是要進一步了解「
太空天氣」。太陽持續發送粒子以及氣體到太空中。有時
候透過大噴發，或稱「日閃焰」，送出大量帶電粒子到太
空。地球磁場和大氣層如同屏障一般，能保護我們不受此
種太陽風帶來的有害影響。但在太陽風暴期間，太陽活動
會增強，這些粒子便能穿越地球的防護而湧入。
太陽風帶電粒子進入地球高層大氣時，就會產生美

陽風暴發生期間，產生的輻射會對太空人造成危險，亦可
能損壞衛星設備。而稱為日冕物質拋射的極端太陽活動，
則甚至可能造成地球上大停電。這些劇烈風暴朝地球迎面
來襲之前，通常幾乎沒有任何警示。而帕克太陽探測器的
主要用途之一，便是能夠收集資料以協助正確預測及了解
太陽本身的氣候狀況。這些資料能幫助科學家了解太陽風
