「鴉」倒眾生的鳥界天才 The Cleverness of Cunning Crows
JUN. 07,2024 / Analytical Editors

   What is the smartest animal on the planet? Many people think of elephants and their incredible memories or dolphins with their large, complex brains. One of the most surprisingly clever animals is a black bird seen almost everywhere in the world—the crow. These birds' sophisticated brains are capable of performing amazing feats of memory and problem-solving.
   For one thing, crows can tell us apart and even remember their interactions with us. In one experiment, a scientist wore a caveman mask before trapping some crows to put bands on their legs. The crows were not pleased with being trapped, and after being released, they made loud, harsh sounds at the person in the mask. Over several years, anyone in a caveman mask triggered hostile responses from crows, whether they were previously captured or not. This showed that crows not only have excellent memory and facial recognition, but they can also pass on information to other members of their group.
    什麼動物是地球上最聰明的呢？很多人會想到大象和牠們絕佳的記憶力，或是擁有龐大、複雜大腦的海豚。最令人驚奇的聰明動物之一是世界上幾乎隨處可見的黑鳥 ── 烏鴉。這些鳥類精密的大腦能夠驚人地發揮出記憶力和解決問題的能力。
   首先，烏鴉可以辨別我們，甚至會記得牠們與我們的互動。在一項實驗中，一位科學家戴上穴居人面具，然後捕捉一些烏鴉，在牠們的腿上綁上帶子。那些烏鴉對被抓住很不悅，被釋放後，牠們對戴著面具的人發出大聲且刺耳的聲音。幾年來，任何戴著穴居人面具的人都會引發烏鴉的敵意反應，無論牠們之前有沒有被捕捉過都一樣。這表明烏鴉不僅具有出色的記憶力和臉部辨識能力，牠們還可以將資訊傳遞給群體的其他成員。 ...

穿著學位服完美出場！Caps Off to Graduates!
JUN. 05,2024 / Enjoy Editors

Caps and gowns are a classic tradition for graduation.
  Graduating from a high school, university, college, or academy is an important ritual with a long history. When students graduate, they are moving on to another major chapter in their lives. Graduation ceremonies give all the graduating students a great sense of importance.
  A big part of the ceremony is wearing the academic regalia, which has been much the same for hundreds of years. The attire typically consists of a cap and a gown. Known as a mortarboard, the cap is a hat with a square shape and a tassel hanging from one side. It is believed to have been created in the 15th century. Its design was influenced by a type of hat called “biretta,” which was worn by Catholic clerics and scholars. 　　
畢業帽與畢業袍是畢業典禮的經典傳統。
  從高中、大學、一般學院或專科學院畢業是一個有悠久歷史的重要儀式。當學生畢業時，他們將進入人生另一個重要階段。畢業典禮讓所有即將畢業的學生感到至關重要。
   典禮的一個重要部分是穿著學位服，數百年來它都大致維持一樣。這套服裝通常是由一個畢業帽與畢業袍組成。畢業帽又稱為學位帽，是一種方形的帽子，其中一側垂著一束流蘇。據信它是於十五世紀創造的。它的設計受到一種稱為「四角帽」的帽子所影響，這種帽子是由天主教神職人員與學者所配戴。
