💪 🚶 關於「腿★腳」 老年人必須重視的問題 1、️當我們變老時，我們的腳腿必須始終保持堅挺。 2、️當我們變老時，我們不應該擔心我們的頭髮變灰或皮膚下垂或皮膚皺紋。 3、️在「長壽」的跡象中，如《美國預防雜誌》所概述的那樣，強壯的腿部肌肉被列為最重要和最基本的肌肉。 4、如果兩周不動腿，則腿部力量會降低10年。 5、️丹麥哥本哈根大學的一項研究發現，無論老少，在「不活動」的兩周內，腿部肌肉的力量都會減弱三分之一，相當於老化20至30年。 6、隨著我們腿部肌肉的衰弱，即使我們進行康復和鍛鍊，它也將需要很長時間才能恢復。 7、️因此，定期進行的運動（如步行）非常重要。 8、整個身體的重量（負荷），仍然保持在腿上。 9、腳是一種「支柱」，承重於人體。有趣的是，一個人的體重中有50％位於骨頭中，而骨頭的50％則位於兩條腿中。 10、人體最大和最強的關節和骨頭，也在腿上。 11、️ 強壯的骨骼，強壯的肌肉和靈活的關節形成的「鐵三角」，承載著人體上最重要的負荷。 12、70％的人類活動和生命中的能量燃燒，是由兩只腳完成的。 13、你知道嗎？ 當一個人年輕時，他的大腿有足夠的力量抬起一輛小型車！ 14、️「腿和腳」，是身體運動的中心。 15、兩條腿擁有人體50％的神經，50％的血管和50％的血液流過它們。 16、這是連接身體的大型循環網絡。 17、當腳和腿部健康時，常規的血液流動就會順暢地進行，因此腿部肌肉發達的人肯定會擁有「堅強的心臟」 。 18、人體️「老化「，首先從腳部開始，再向上發展。 20、隨著年齡的增長，大腦和腿部之間的指令傳輸的準確性和速度會下降，這與年輕人，是完全不同的。 21、隨著時間的流逝，骨胳的鈣質早晚會流失，致使老年人更容易發生骨折。 22、️老年人的骨胳骨折後，很容易引發一系列併發症，尤其是致命性疾病，例如腦血栓形成。 23、您知道嗎，15％老年人一旦大腿骨折後，會在一年內死亡！ 24、鍛鍊腿部，即使在60歲以後或更大年齡，也永遠不會太晚。 25、儘管我們的腳、腿會隨著時間而逐漸衰老，但是鍛鍊腳、腿是終生的任務。 26、只有加強腿部鍛鍊，才能防止進一步的衰老。 27、請每天至少步行30-40分鐘以上，以確保您的腿部得到足夠的鍛鍊，並確保腿部肌肉保持健康。

Oh, we like war. We like war. We're a war-like people. We like war because we're good at it. You know why we're good at it? Because we get a lot of practice. This country's only 200 years old and already we've had 10 major wars. We average a major war every 20 years in this country, so we're good at it. And it's a good thing we are. We're not very good at anything else anymore. Can't build a decent car. Can't make a TV set or a VCR. What the fuck? Got no steel industry left. Can't educate our young people. Can't get health care to our old people. But we can bomb the shit out of your country, all right? We can bomb the shit out of your country, all right? Especially if your country is full of brown people. Oh, we like that, don't we? That's our hobby. That's our new job in the world, bombing brown people. Iraq, Panama, Grenada, Libya. You've got some brown people in your country. Tell them to watch the fuck out. Or we'll goddamn bomb them. But when's the last white people you can remember that we bombed? Can you remember the last white? Can you remember any white people we've ever bombed? The Germans. Those are the only ones. And that's only because they were trying to cut in on our action. They wanted to dominate the world. Bullshit. That's our fucking job. Think of how we started. Think of that. This country was founded by a group of slave owners who told us all men are created equal. Oh yeah. All men. Except for Indians and niggers and women, right? Always like to use that authentic American language. This was a small group of unelected white male land-holding slave owners who also suggested their class be the only one allowed to vote. Now that is what's known as being stunningly and embarrassingly full of shit. I think Americans really show their ignorance when they say they want their politicians to be honest. What are these fucking cretins talking about? If honesty were suddenly introduced into American life, the whole system would collapse. No one would know what to do. Honesty would fuck this country up. And I think deep down Americans know that. That's why they elected and re-elected Bill Clinton. That's why. Because the American people like their bullshit right out front where they can get a good strong whiff of it. Clinton might be full of shit, but at least he lets you know it. Dole tried to hide it, didn't he? Dole kept saying, I'm a plain and honest man. Bullshit. People don't believe that. What did Clinton say? He said, hi folks, I'm completely full of shit, and how do you like that? And the people said, you know something, at least he's honest.

丹麥大學研究： 「若你兩周不動腿，則腿部力量會降低10年！中年後的自信不在大腦 ，是在雙腿」 1、變老時，腳與腿須始終保持堅挺。 2、變老時，不應擔心頭髮變灰、皮膚下垂、皮膚皺紋，反而要照顧兩腿。 3、《美國預防雜誌》所概述長壽跡象那樣，強壯的腿部肌肉被列為最重要的肌肉。 4、若兩周內不動腿，腿力降低10年。 5、研究發現，無論老少兩週若不活動，腿部肌肉力量減弱1/4，相當老化20~30年。 6、若腿肌的衰弱，即使我們進行康復和鍛鍊，需很長時間才能恢復。 7、定期運動，如步行非常重要。 8、整個身體重量負荷在腿上。 9、人體承重於腳。人體重50％在骨頭，而骨頭50％在兩腿。 10、人體最大及最強關節和骨頭在腿上。 11、 強壯的骨骼與肌肉和靈活關節形成「鐵三角」，承載人體上最重要負荷。 12、你70％活動能量燃燒，在兩腳。 13、年輕的你，大腿有足夠力量可抬起一輛小車！ 14、腿和腳是身體「運動中心」。 15、兩腿擁有人體50％神經，50％血管和50％血液流經。 16、兩腿連接身體的大型循環網絡。 17、有健康的腳和腿，血液流動會順暢，腿肌發達者會有堅強的心臟。 18、人老，先從腳部開始再向上發展。 19、人老，大腦對腿部傳輸指令的準確性和速度下滑，不如年輕人。 20、人一老，骨胳鈣質早晚會流失，故老年人易發生骨折。 21、老年人骨折，易引發併發症，尤其是致命性疾病如腦血栓。 22、統計上有15％老年人大腿骨折在一年內身亡！ 23、鍛鍊腿部對於60歲的老人永遠不嫌晚。 24、腳與腿會隨著時間會衰老，鍛鍊腳與腿是你終生的任務。 https://youtu.be/hCVAL1w_1Qg?si=geeAfwqq1pbcoMg1

We like war. We like war. We're a war like people. We like war because we're good at it. And you know why we're good at it? Because we get a lot of practice. This country's only 200 years old and already we've had 10 major wars. We average a major war in this country every 20 years, so we're good at it. Got no steel industry left, can't get healthcare to our old people, can't educate our young people, but we can bomb the shit out of your country, alright? We can bomb the shit out of your country, alright? Everybody complains about politicians. Everybody says they suck. Well, where do people think these politicians come from? They don't fall out of the sky. They come from American parents and American families, American homes, American schools, and they're elected by American citizens. This is the best we can do, folks. This is what we have to offer. It's what our system produces. Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're going to get selfish, ignorant leaders. So maybe, maybe, maybe it's not the politicians who suck. Maybe something else sucks around here, like the public. Yeah, the public sucks. There's a nice campaign slogan for somebody. The public sucks. Fuck hope. Fuck hope. It's never going to get any better. Don't look for it. Be happy with what you got. Because the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners now. The real owners, the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls. They've got the judges in their back pockets. And they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interest. That's right. You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime, and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And now they're coming for your Social Security money. They want your fucking retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later because they own this fucking place. It's a big club. And you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club. By the way, it's the same big club they used to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe all day long, beating you over the head in their media, telling you what to believe, what to think, and what to buy. The table is tilted, folks. The game is rigged. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good, honest, hardworking people, white collar, blue collar, doesn't matter what color shirt you have on. Good, honest, hardworking people continue. These are people of modest means. Continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don't give a fuck about them. They don't give a fuck about you. They don't give a fuck about you. They don't care about you at all. At all. At all. We like war. We like war.

轉傳短文「青春」： 德裔美籍人塞繆爾·厄爾曼70多年前寫的一篇只有四百多字的短文。首次在美國發表的時候，引起全美國轟動效應，成千上萬的讀者把它抄下來當作座右銘收藏，許多中老年人把它作為安排後半生的精神支柱。 美國的麥克亞瑟將軍在指揮整個太平洋戰爭期間，辦公桌上始終擺著裝有短文《青春》影本的鏡框，文中的許多的詞句常被他在談話或開會作報告時引用。 後來此文傳到日本，文章的觀點成為許多日本人生活哲學的基礎。松下公司的創始人松下幸之助說：「多年來，《青春》始終是我的座右銘。」 文章如下： 「青春，並非人生旅程的一段時光，也並非粉頰紅唇和體魄的矯健。 它是心靈中的一種狀態，是頭腦中的一個意念，是理性思維中的創造潛力，是情感活動的一股勃勃的朝氣，是人生春色深處的一縷東風。 青春，意味著甘願放棄溫馨浪漫的愛情去闖蕩生活，意味著超越羞澀、怯懦和欲望的膽識與氣質。 而60歲的男人可能比20歲的小夥子更多地擁有這種膽識與氣質。沒有人僅僅因為時光的流逝而變得衰老，只是隨著理想的毀滅，人類才出現了老人。 歲月可以在皮膚上留下皺紋，卻無法為靈魂刻上一絲痕跡。憂慮、恐懼、缺乏自信才使人佝僂於時間塵埃之中。 無論是60歲還是16歲，每個人都會被未來所吸引，都會對人生競爭中的歡樂懷著孩子般無窮無盡的渴望。 在你我心靈的深處，同樣有一個無線電臺，只要它不停地從人群中，從無限的時間中接受美好、希望、歡欣、勇氣和力量的資訊，你我就永遠年輕。 一旦這無線電臺坍塌，你的心便會被玩世不恭和悲觀失望的寒冷酷雪所覆蓋，你便衰老了——即使你只有20歲。 但如果這無線電臺始終矗立在你心中，捕捉著每個樂觀向上的電波，你便有希望超過年輕的90歲。 所以只要勇於有夢，敢於追夢，勤於圓夢，我們就永遠保持青春！ 千萬不要動不動就說自己老了，錯誤引導自己！年輕就是力量，有夢就有未來！」 「Youth」 by Samuel Ullman Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life. Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite, for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing child-like appetite of what’s next, and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young. When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at twenty, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch the waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at eighty.丨

不吃晚餐 為甚麼退休人聚餐要安排在中午呢？晚餐與疾病知多少？尤其是60歲以上的人更要注意 晚餐四分之一的量是維持生命，四分之三的量是在維持醫生的生計！ 看完後你會覺得太可怕了，晚上再也不敢貪吃了！特別是訂在晚餐的應酬！ 若是在第二天起床沒有饑餓感，請把晚餐量減少一半。 千萬不要以爲隨便進食晚餐無關緊要，國內外專家研究發現，很多疾病發生的原因之一，都是來自晚上不良的飲食習慣。 晚餐吃錯了，疾病就會上身 ☆（晚餐與肥胖） 90％的胖子緣於晚餐吃的太好與太多，加上晚上活動量小，熱量消耗少，多餘的熱量在胰島素的作用下大量合成脂肪，肥胖就自然形成。 ☆（晚餐與糖尿病） 長期晚餐過飽，經常刺激胰島素大量分泌，很容易造成胰島素的負擔加重，加速老化，進而誘發糖尿病；幷且晚餐吃太多太好，造成的肥胖也是會引發糖尿病。 ☆（晚餐與腸癌） 晚餐若吃過飽，蛋白質食物無法完全被消化，在腸道細菌的作用下，會産生有毒物質；加上活動量小及進入睡眠狀態中，會使得腸壁蠕動慢，延長有毒物質停留在腸道內的時間，增加大腸癌的發病率。 ☆（晚餐與尿結石） 人的排鈣尖峰期約在餐後的4、5小時；若晚餐太晚吃，當排鈣尖峰期到來時，通常已進入睡眠中，于是尿液滯留在輸尿管、膀胱、尿道等尿路中，不能在及時排出體外，致使尿中鈣不斷增加，容易沉積下來形成小晶體，長期累積就擴大形成結石。 ☆（晚餐與高血脂症） 晚餐若都是採高蛋白、高油脂、高熱量進食方式，會刺激肝臟製造低密和極低密度脂蛋白，三酸甘油酯也容易上升，造成高血脂症。 ☆（晚餐與高血壓） 晚餐內容若偏葷食，加上睡眠時的血流速度减緩，大量血脂就會沉積在血管壁上，進而引起細小動脉更收縮，外周血管阻力增高，易造成血壓猛然上升，也會加速全身小動脉的硬化。 ☆（晚餐與動脈硬化、心臟病） 晚餐的飲食若偏高油脂、高熱量，可引起膽固醇增高，並在動脈壁堆積起來，成爲誘發動脈硬化和心臟病的一大原因。 此外，形成動脈硬化的另一主因，就是鈣質沉積在血管內；因此晚餐的美食、飽食及太晚吃飯，都是引發心血管疾病的其中原因。 ☆晚餐與脂肪肝 晚餐若吃太好太飽，血糖和脂肪酸的濃度會加速脂肪的合成，加上晚間活動量小，也會加速脂肪的轉化，造成脂肪肝。 ☆（晚餐與急性胰腺炎） 晚餐若是暴飲暴食，加上飲酒，容易誘發急性胰臟炎，甚至使人在睡眠中休克、猝死。 ☆（晚餐與腦部退化） 若長期晚餐吃太飽，睡覺時胃腸及附近的的肝膽、胰臟等器官仍在運作中，會使得腦部不能休息，並且腦部的血液供應也會不足，進而會影響腦細胞的正常代謝，加速腦部老化。 青壯年時期經常飽食的美食家，在年老後有五分之一機率會罹患失智症。 ☆（晚餐與睡眠品質） 晚餐的飽食，必然會造成胃腸、肝膽、胰臟等器官，在睡眠時仍要不斷工作，及傳訊息給大腦，使大腦一直處於興奮狀態中，造成多夢與失眠等，長期下來還會引發神經衰弱等疾病。 吃健康晚餐的五個建議 1、晚餐吃少。 2、用晚餐時間約在4,5 點以前，最有益健康。 3、晚餐要多攝取素食，少吃葷食。 4、晚上少吃高脂肪、高熱量、高鈣及易脹氣的食物。 黃金睡眠時間： 1. 晚11點至早5點——肝，膽，肺在深眠狀態進行排毒。 2. 晚9點至11點——淋巴排毒，需安靜輕鬆。 3. 凌晨0點至4點——頸椎造血，需在睡眠狀態中進行。 4. 凌晨5點至早7點——大腸排毒，需前一天各器官排毒正常。 5. 晚11點至早7點——全身免疫系統排毒。 從上面可以看出，凌晨0點至4點是需要我們熟睡的時間，保證了這4個小時的深度睡眠，就能抵上8小時，反之，如果熬夜失眠之後補睡，8小時也不夠補回你損失的精氣，因此，晚11點前上床睡覺最好，為深度睡眠做準備 鍛鍊腿是終生的任務 1.保持雙腿強健的重要性：美國《預防》雜誌總結的長壽跡像中，「強壯的腿部肌肉」排在首位。 2.兩週不動，腿部力量下降40年：丹麥哥本哈根大學的一項研究發現，無論老幼，在連續兩週不活動後，腿部肌肉的力量都會減弱三分之一，相當於40至50歲。 3.定期運動非常重要：如果腿部肌肉長期無力，即使您稍後進行康復，也將需要很長時間才能恢復。 4.全身壓力都在腿上，腿是人體負擔的支柱： 兩條腿有50％的骨頭和50％的肌肉，其中最大，最堅固的關節和骨頭也都在其中。 「強壯的骨骼」，「強大的肌肉」和「靈活的關節」構成了鐵三角，它對人體具有最重要的作用。 一生中70％的活動和能量消耗都是用雙腿完成的。 5.腿是身體運輸的中心： 一個人的雙腿擁有人體50％的神經，50％的血管和50％的血液流過它們，這是一個連接人體的大型循環網絡。 只有腿健康，通道才能順暢運行，腿部肌肉發達的人一定會擁有堅強的心臟。 6.老化從腿開始： 隨著年齡的增長，腿和大腦之間的指令傳輸的準確性和速度會下降，這與他們年輕時不同。 另外，骨骼中所謂的「骨肥鈣」會逐漸流失，使老年人更容易骨折。 老年人的骨折容易引發疾病，尤其是致命疾病，例如腦血栓形成。 您知道：15％的患者甚至會在骨折後一年內死亡！ 7.60歲開始更需鍛練為時已晚的腿部： 鍛煉腿是終生的任務，只有加強腿部，才有能力減少進一步的衰老。 敦請請多提醒上了年紀的人！🙏🏻✨

勞里·加勒特（Laurie Garrett）是美國著名女記者，是獲得皮博迪獎（The Peabody Award）、喬治 · 伯克獎（George Polk Award）和普利茲獎（Pulitzer Award）三大著名新聞獎的第一人。現為美國對外關係委員會全球衛生高級研究員。 她曾對艾博拉、SARS 等大型傳染病和公共健康危機都做過實地考察與深度研究，出版了《失信：全球公共衛生事業之癱瘓》《流行天下！傳染病的世界》《逼近的瘟疫》等多部關於傳染病與公共衛生的著作。 對於這一次的2019-nCoV病毒帶來的恐慌，她撰文講述了自己面對傳染病的經驗與知識，以及10個在疫情期間保護自己的預防措施，大家應該看一看。 ======================== 01. When you leave your home, wear gloves—winter mittens or outdoor gloves—and keep them on in subways, buses, and public spaces. 出門離家時，戴上手套——冬天的手套或是戶外手套都可以——任何公共場合包括地鐵，公車或公共場所都不要脫下來。 02. If you are in a social situation where you should remove your gloves, perhaps to shake hands or dine, do not touch your face or eyes, no matter how much something itches. Keep your hands away from contact with your face. And before you put your gloves back on, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water, scrubbing the fingers. Put your gloves on. 在某些需要脫下手套的社交場合，比如握手和吃飯時，不要用手接觸你的臉或眼睛，不管有多癢都不要讓你的手接觸你的臉。在戴回手套前，用溫水和肥皂仔細洗手，好好搓洗手指，再戴上手套。 03. Change gloves daily, washing them thoroughly, and avoid wearing damp gloves. 每天更換手套，仔細清洗。不要戴潮濕的手套。 04. Masks are useless when worn outdoors and may not be very helpful even indoors. Most masks deteriorate after one or two wearings. Using the same mask day after day is worse than useless—it’s disgusting, as the contents of your mouth and nose eventually coat the inside of the mask with a smelly veneer that is attractive to bacteria. I rarely wear a face mask in an epidemic, and I have been in more than 30 outbreaks. 口罩在戶外佩戴時毫無用處，即使在室內用處也不大。大多口罩在被使用一兩次後就被污染了，重覆使用同一口罩比不戴口罩更糟糕。因為從你嘴和鼻子的呼出的物質最終會在口罩內部形成一層十分滋養細菌的，發臭的膜。在傳染病流行期間我很少戴口罩，我曾經經歷過這種狀況超過30次。 Instead, I stay away from crowds, and I keep my distance from individual people—a half meter, about 1.5 feet, is a good standard. If someone is coughing or sneezing, I ask them to put on a mask—to protect me from their potentially contaminated fluids. If they decline, I step a meter (about 3 feet) away from them, or I leave. Don’t shake hands or hug people—politely beg off, saying it’s better for both of you not to come in close contact during an epidemic. 相反，我會遠離人群，並且與個人保持距離——差不多半公尺左右是比較好的標準。要是有人咳嗽或是打噴嚏，我會請他們戴上口罩，來保護我免受潛在的有污染的液體傷害。如果他們拒絕，我會走到一公尺外的距離，或者乾脆離開。不要與人握手或擁抱，告訴對方在傳染病流行期間不要靠太近，這對彼此都好。 05. Inside your household, remove all of the towels from your bathrooms and kitchen immediately, and replace them with clean towels that have the names of each family member on them. Instruct everybody in your home to only use their own towels and never touch another family member’s. Wash all towels twice a week. Damp towels provide terrific homes for viruses, like common colds, flus, and, yes, coronaviruses. 在家裡要馬上給浴室和廚房都換上乾淨的毛巾，讓家裡每個人都用自己的專屬毛巾，不去觸碰別人的。每週洗兩次毛巾。濕毛巾會為病毒滋生提供溫床，例如普通感冒，流感，以及冠狀病毒。 06. Be careful with doorknobs. If it’s possible to open and close doors using your elbows or shoulders, do so. Wear gloves to turn a doorknob—or wash your hands after touching it. If anybody in your home takes sick, wash your doorknobs regularly. Similarly, be cautious with stairway banisters, desktops, cell phones, toys, laptops—any objects that are hand-held. 小心門把手，最好用肘部或肩膀去開關門。戴手套去擰門把手，或者在觸摸了門把手後去洗手。如果家裡有病人，定期清潔門把手。同樣，對待樓梯扶手，桌面，手機，玩具，筆記本電腦等任何手持物體都要小心謹慎。 As long as you handle only your own personal objects, you will be ok—but if you need to pick up someone else’s cell phone or cooking tools or use someone else’s computer keyboard, be mindful of not touching your face and wash your hands immediately after touching the object. 只要你只接觸自己的私人物品，就沒什麼問題。但是，如果你需要使用別人的手機，廚具或電腦鍵盤，請注意不要觸摸臉部，並在觸摸物體後立即去洗手。 07. If you share meals, do not use your personal chopsticks and utensils to remove food from a serving bowl or plate and, of course, tell your children to never drink out of anybody else’s cups or from a container of shared fluid. Place serving spoons in each dish and instruct everybody at the table to scoop what they want from the serving dishes onto their personal plates or bowls, return the serving spoon to the main dish, and then use their personal chopsticks only to pick food from their personal plate or bowl into their mouth. 吃飯時，不要用你自己的筷子和餐具去公碗和盤子裡夾菜。也要告訴你的孩子不要喝別人杯子或者容器里的水。在席上讓每個人使用公勺將盤子里的菜夾到自己的盤子或者碗里，然後將公勺放回公盤，然後用自己的筷子將自己盤子或者碗里的食物送進嘴裡。 Wash all food and kitchenware thoroughly between meals and avoid restaurants that have poor hygiene practices. 飯前仔細清洗食物，飯後仔細清洗餐具，不要去衛生條件不好的餐館用餐。 08. Absolutely do not buy, slaughter, or consume any live animal or fish until it is known what species was the source of the virus. 在病毒傳播源被發現之前，絕對不要購買，屠宰，或是食用任何生鮮動物和魚類。 09. When the weather allows, open your windows at home or work, letting your space air out. The virus cannot linger in a well-ventilated space. But of course, if it is cold or the weather is inclement, keep warm and close those windows. 天氣條件允許的情況下，打開家裡或辦公室的窗戶，讓室內空氣流通，病毒無法在通風條件良好的空間裡停留。當然，如果天氣嚴寒，就關窗保暖。 10. Finally, if you are caring for a friend or family member who is running a fever, always wear a tight-fitting mask when you are near them, and place one on the ailing person (unless they are nauseated). 最後，如果你在照顧得病的朋友或家人，在靠近他們時，一定要時刻佩戴與面部緊貼的口罩，並給他們也戴上（除非他們感到噁心）。 When you replace an old, dirty mask from the face of your friend or loved one be very, very careful—assume, for the sake of your protection, that it is covered in viruses, and handle it while wearing latex gloves, place it inside of a disposable container, seal it, and then put it in the trash. While wearing those latex gloves, gently wash the patient’s face with warm soap and water, using a disposable paper towel or cotton swab, and seal it after use in a container or plastic bag before placing it in your household trash. 當你幫忙從朋友或親人的臉上摘除使用過的臟口罩時，請務必要非常小心——為了保護自己，你必須假設該口罩已被病毒覆蓋，戴上乳膠手套去進行處理，將其放進可丟棄的包裝袋內，密封好，然後再丟進垃圾桶。戴上乳膠手套為患者用紙巾和棉球輕輕地用肥皂和溫水清洗患者的面部，並在使用後將其密封好裝入包裝袋或塑料袋中，然後再丟進家裡的垃圾箱。 Wear long-sleeved shirts and clothing that covers your body when you are caring for your ailing friend or relative. Clean everything your patient wears or touches very thoroughly in hot soapy water, including sheets, towels, and utensils. 在照顧生病的朋友或家人時，要穿上能包裹全身的長袖衣物。用熱肥皂水徹底清洗患者所穿過的衣物和接觸的所有物品，包括床單，毛巾和器皿。 If you have space, isolate the sick person in your household in a room, or a corner of a room, where they are comfortable, but separated from the rest of the household. If the weather is tolerable, open a window that is on the opposite side of the room, so that air gently blows past the patient’s face and then outdoors. Of course, don’t do this if it is very cold, as your friend or loved one will be made sicker if uncomfortably cold. 如果你家裡有足夠的空間，為病人隔離出一個房間或房間的一角，讓他們感到舒適的同時又與家庭中的其他人分開。如果天氣適宜，打開房間另一側的窗戶，這樣空氣能輕輕吹過患者的面部後，流動吹到室外。當然，如果天氣很冷就不要這樣做，因為你的朋友和家人可能會因寒冷而病情加重。 The Chinese government will take very drastic actions over the next few weeks, and this will be a time of hardship for the Chinese people. But with these simple precautions, if taken by everybody in your household, building, office, and school, you will dramatically reduce the spread of the virus and bring the outbreak to its knees.

*王毅 外長* ：我國要做好準備面對 *未來 三年* 的 *十大殘酷現實* ! 　王毅：2020年對中美關係來講是艱難的一年，這種艱難可能還會持續幾年時間，甚至會更長，因為 *到現在還沒有解藥* 。而在接下來的三年裡我們也需要去面對的十大殘酷現實！ 　　第一大殘酷現實： *中美關係是所有關係中的關鍵和核心* ，有一萬個理由可以證明搞好中美關係的重要性， *中國沒有成本優勢與美國對抗*。 　　不是說中國怕美國，而是不值得玩對抗﹔在對待美國霸權問題上， *中國必須要運用智慧* 。防止失聯朋友圈更精彩你可以討厭美國、不喜歡美國、恨美國， *但不要影響去重視美國*。不是因為覺得美國好才與他搞好關係，僅僅是因為 *美國是“老大”* ，是 *遊戲規則的制定者* ，是 *中國最大的消費市場* ，這是 *一個殘酷的現實和事實* ，你不服不行。 　　第二大殘酷現實： *現在的中國可以影響世界，但不能左右世界* 。目前能夠左右世界的只有美國，這個現實我們必須要接受。要知道：影響世界的國家有許多，況且這種影響也是有階段性的，你在影響別人的同時，別人 *也在影響你。世界萬物都是彼此影響的，所以 *不要有優越感* 。優越感會造成 *盲目自信* ，自信過頭就是 *自負*，自負過頭就會 *自命不凡*，最後只能是 *自作多情* 和 *自認倒霉* 了。 第三大殘酷現實： *“中國模式”僅僅適用於中國* 。 　　中國的高速發展是不能被複製制的。因為中國的歷史別國是沒有的，我們所受到的曲折、痛苦和折磨在人類歷史上是少有的，中國現在的發展模式是結合了中國國情而形成的一種模式。所以，不要動不動就想推銷“中國模式”，別人 *不會接受*，也會 *水土不服* 。 　　第四大殘酷現實： *不要輕言戰爭* 。 　　如果40年前中國說不怕戰爭，那是一種底氣，因為我們窮，光腳的不怕穿鞋的。但，如果你現在還說“不怕戰爭”，那是一種虛張聲勢。因為你已經“相當”富裕，你的北上廣深大城市已經與世界上任何大城市可以媲美。“羅馬城不是一日建成的”，但 *“毀掉羅馬城瞬間就可以實現”* 。 　　美國人是世界上最怕戰爭的，因為他有最繁華的城市群，所以美國要發展世上最強大的軍隊，目的就是要 *“拒戰爭於萬里之外”* ，絕不讓戰爭在本土發生。中國現在還沒有這個能力，中國若與強大的敵人戰爭，必然是 *本土戰爭*，我們壯大軍隊不是渴望戰爭，而是要 *防止把戰爭引入家門*/。 　　第五大殘酷現實： *中國永遠都是一個發展中的國家* 。 　　我們的朋友圈永遠在第三世界。要牢記：西方那些發達國家是不會帶我們玩的，在他們的眼中 *永遠有“優越感”* 。 *西方永遠瞧不起我們的價值觀*，永遠認為中國“落後”。在西方人眼裡，永遠都存在 *“東西方差異”* 。千萬不要認為可以融入西方世界，天真地認為可以與 *西方平起平坐* ，中國與歐美僅僅是 *生意關係* ，是 *做不了真朋友的* 。 　　第六大殘酷現實 *不要主動去向世界承諾什麼，更不要用錢去買地位，充當世界領袖* 。 　　真正的領袖都不是主動申請的，而是 *受命於危難* ，都是 *被人強推上位的* 。所以，領袖不好當，吃力不討好。如果你成了世界領袖，那麼必須要放棄許多，全世界都要跟你玩“貿易順差”，你卻又不敢有脾氣。如果這領袖好當， *美國就不會混的現在這麼慘了* (在川普眼裡，美國混的最慘，是世界級的大傻瓜)。 　　第七大殘酷現實： *中國已經回不去了* ，不可能因為“摸著石子過河”陷入了深水區就妄想退回去。 　　時光不會倒流，不可能因為害怕風險而停止這場遊戲。從開始打開國門的那一天起，我們注定沒有回頭路可走， *國門必須是越開越大，陷阱必然是越走越多* 。 *不能輕言放棄*，更 *不能 “好了傷疤忘了疼”*。 　　第八大殘酷現實： *不能為了追求“多快好省”而“超速上癮”* ，不要動不動就犯“大躍進”的毛病， *不要炫耀所謂“彎道超車”* 。 　　不是因為你技術好，僅僅是一種僥倖。遵守規則從來就不是墨守陳規，講究信用也不是呆傻愚鈍。所有投機取巧的鑽空子結果都會是互相傷害， *出來混總要還的，越強大的人越把規則當生命看待* 。 　　第九大殘酷現實： *你今天超越了別人，明天別人就會超越你* 。超越強者不是為了證明你的強大，而是要讓民眾享受到做強者的好處。 事實證明：*真正聰明的人願意永遠是一個追隨者*，而 *不願意成為一個超越者* 。也許你覺得韜光養晦無法顯出英雄本色，但低調做人恰恰是深藏不露高手的基本素質。 第十大殘酷現實： *所有用錢買來的朋友都靠不住* 。 “誰是我們的敵人？誰是我們的朋友？這是革命的首要問題”，真正的朋友恰恰是經常公開爭吵的、互相懟罵的。在你渴望用錢去收買別人的時候，一不小心就被別人利用了。真正強大的國家不是因為錢多而吸引別人，而是你的 *價值信仰* 和 *執政理念* *深深讓人折服*。 　　現實往往都是 *殘酷* 的，甚至是 *殘忍* 的。但是，許多時候並不是因為殘酷而使人不敢正視現實，僅僅是因為 *缺乏自信而曲解了現實* 。 　　—— *王毅* 王毅把天下興亡說得非常透徹，句句擲地有聲! 轉自 ”人民的曙光” *Wang Yi Foreign Minister*: my country should be ready to face the *ten cruel realities* of the next *three years*! Wang Yi: 2020 will be a difficult year for China-US relations, and this difficulty may continue for several years, or even longer, because *there is no antidote*. And in the next three years, we also need to face the ten cruel realities! The first cruel reality: *Sino-US relations are the key and core of all relations*, there are 10,000 reasons to prove the importance of doing well in Sino-US relations, *China has no cost advantage against the US*. It is not that China is afraid of the United States, but it is not worth playing against; *China must use wisdom* in dealing with the issue of American hegemony. You can hate the United States, dislike the United States, hate the United States, but *don't affect the importance of the United States*. It's not because he thinks the United States is good that he has a good relationship with him, but only because *the United States is the "boss"*, the maker of the *rules of the game*, and the largest consumer market in China. *This is a cruel reality and fact* , *You can't not accept it.* The second cruel reality: *Now China can influence the world, but it cannot control the world*. At present, only the United States can control the world. We must accept this reality. You must know that there are many countries that influence the world, and this influence is also phased. While you are influencing others, others are also influencing you. Everything in the world affects each other, so *don't feel superior*. Superiority will lead to *blind self-confidence*, too much self-confidence is *conceited*, too much self-confidence will be *pretentious*, and in the end it can only be *self-consciousness* and *self-confessed bad luck*. Third cruel reality: *The "China model" only applies to China*. China's rapid development cannot be replicated. Because China has no other country in its history, and the twists, pains and tortures we have suffered are rare in human history. China's current development model is a model formed by combining China's national conditions. So, don't try to sell the "Chinese model" at every turn. Others *will not accept* and *will not acclimatize*. The fourth cruel reality: *Don't talk about war lightly*. If China said 40 years ago that it is not afraid of war, it would have been a kind of confidence, because we are poor, and those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing their feet. But if you still say "not afraid of war" now, that's a bluff. Because you are already "pretty" wealthy, your big cities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are comparable to any big city in the world. "The city of Rome was not built in a day", but *"destroyed the city of Rome in an instant"*. Americans are the one most afraid of war in the world, because they have the most prosperous urban agglomeration, so the purpose of the United States to develop the most powerful army in the world is to *"held back war from thousands of miles away"*, and never let war occur in the homeland. China does not have this capability yet. If China fights a powerful enemy, it must be a *local war*. We are not longing for war to grow our army, but to *prevent war from being introduced into our homes*. The fifth cruel reality: *China will always be a developing country*. Our circle of friends is always in the third world. Remember: those developed countries in the West will not take us to play, and in their eyes *always have a "sense of superiority"*. *The West will always look down on our values* and always consider *China to be "backward"*. In the eyes of Westerners, there will always be *"East-West differences"*. Don't think that you can *integrate into the Western world*, and *naively think that you can*. The sixth cruel reality *Don't take the initiative to promise anything to the world, let alone use money to buy status and act as a world leader*. The real leaders are not actively applying to be one, but *accept the mission under dangerous and difficult condition*, and *they are all being pushed to the position by force*. Therefore, it is not easy to be a leader, and it is *thankless* . If you become a world leader, you have to *give up a lot* . The whole world wants to play a "trade surplus" with you, but you don't dare to have a temper. If this leader is good, *the United States will not be so miserable now* (In Trump's eyes, the United States is the worst, and it is a world-class fool). The seventh cruel reality: *China has no way to go back*, it is impossible to go back because of "crossing the river by feeling the stones" and falling into the deep water area. Time will not go back, it is impossible to stop this game because of fear of risk. From the day we started to open the country's door, we are destined to have no turning back. *The country's door must be opened wider and wider, and come across more traps as you move among . *Can't give up lightly*, and *can't "get rid of the scar and forget the pain"*. The eighth cruel reality: *You can't be "addicted to speeding" in pursuit of "more speed and better savings"*, don't make the "Great Leap Forward" at every turn, *don't show off the so-called "curve overtaking"*. It's not because of your skill, it's just a fluke. Obeying the rules is never sticking to the old rules, and paying attention to credit is not stupid. All opportunistic exploits will result in mutual harm, and the more powerful people will treat the rules as life. The ninth cruel reality: *You surpass others today, others will surpass you tomorrow*. Overtaking the strong ones is not to prove your strength, but to let the people enjoy the benefits of being a strong ones. It turns out: *Really smart people are willing to always be a follower*, and *will not be a transcender/surpasser*. Maybe you think that keeping a low profile cannot show the true character of a hero, but being a low-key person is precisely the basic quality of a *master who is hidden* . Tenth cruel reality: *all friends bought with money are unreliable*. "Who are our enemies? Who are our friends? This is the primary question of the revolution." *The real friends are those who often quarrel openly and scold each other*. When you are eager to bribe others with money, you are accidentally used by others. A truly powerful country is not attracted to others because of more money, but because of your *value beliefs* and *governing ideas* *deeply convincing*. Reality is often *cruel*, even *brutal . However, many times it is not because of cruelty that people dare not face reality, but because of *lack of self-confidence and distorted reality*. —— *Wang Yi* Wang Yi explained the rise and fall of the world very clearly, and every sentence is powerful! From "The Dawn of the People"。

英國中文僑報最近訪問在英國的習近平前妻柯玲玲，她比習大兩歲，1979-1982年結婚三年，離婚後留學英國，現任醫生和教授。這是有關習早年婚姻狀況的首次披露。1951 年出生，64 歲的柯小明（柯玲玲）是原中國駐英大使柯華的小女兒，她也是習近平的前妻。受過良好教育的柯玲玲，目前她是倫敦一家私立醫院的高級主任，也是倫敦大學亞非醫學院的客座教授。她在近日接受了英國《僑報》的採訪。 1979年柯玲玲與習近平結婚，因為價值觀與性格的不同，1982年，她與結婚三年的習近平離婚，移民英國。而那時的習近平正競選正定縣委書記，習近平毅然放棄了與柯玲玲一同移民英國的機會，並指責柯玲玲貪戀西方繁華。經多次勸說讓習近平移民無效，兩人最終分道揚鑣。與習近平離婚，你覺得後悔嗎？ 柯： 在那個年代，離婚其實是一件非常重要的事情，我和習近平的婚姻很短暫，很重要的一點就是我們幾乎沒有共同點，談不上什麼後悔不後悔的。他以前是一個很執著的人，想幹一番大事業，反正好像我說的話他都聽不進去，所以我才選擇了離婚這條路。距離不可能讓我們產生現實的婚姻和感情。當時我的父親是非常反對的，他總是認為我做事很魯莽。 你們之後有聯繫過嗎？柯：在我去英國的前三年裡，他幾乎每週都打電話給我，你知道那個年代從中國打電話到英國是不方便的，中國還沒有普及電話，條件不比現在，但是我一個電話都沒有接聽過，這讓他非常傷心。我知道他也曾經試圖挽回這段婚姻，我當時是鐵了心了。久而久之，我們也就沒有什麼聯繫了。我知道他心裡還是有這份感情的。 你當時會想到習近平會成為中國的領導人嗎？ 柯：沒有，完全不會這樣去想。他成為中國國家主席，我是非常替他高興的，因為我離開他的時候，他還只是個科級幹部。他是一個很有理想的人，我一直認為他很有潛能，但在當時他的潛能對我而言一無是處。 你覺得在你心裡，習近平是一個怎麼樣的人？ 柯：雖然我和他在一起的時候，大部分時間我們經常發生爭吵，分歧很大，但是我還是認為他是一個正直的人。他不會像其他人一樣，昧著良心去做一些利己的事情，這是我以前非常看重他的一點。以前我認為他太過於固執，也可能是因為我們相處的時間很短暫，我對他不是很瞭解吧。現在回過頭來看，其實他做的很多事情都是對的，只是自己當年太年輕，比較容易衝動。他不是一個理想主義者，他做事是有規劃，有步驟的。我可能會更理想主義一些，畢竟女性都會喜歡懂得浪漫的男人，但是習近平不是，我很多時候覺得他過於刻板，這與我們的成長環境和教育背景有很大關係。 離婚以後的那麼多年，你們都沒有見過面嗎？柯：他還是國家副主席的時候，我們在深圳見過一次。那是我，我姐姐，還有我父親回深圳掃墓，他當時來深圳考察工作，慰問了我父親，我當時也在，他跟我們全家人握了握手，包括我。其實是很尷尬的一次會面，大概一起坐了半個小時，聊了一些東西，我只覺得他看上去老了許多。 習近平會在 10 月訪英，你有什麼期待？ 柯：中國使館那邊已經透過一些管道邀請我作為英國僑界的代表參加一個歡迎宴會，他上任中共總書記三年，第一次來英國訪問，對中英兩國都是有好處的，我作為英國的華人，感到很榮幸，也很高興。 Above message in English from Google translator. British Chinese Overseas Chinese News recently interviewed Ke Lingling, Xi Jinping’s ex-wife in the UK. She was two years older than Xi Jinping, married for three years from 1979 to 1982, and studied in the UK after her divorce. She is now a doctor and professor. This is the first disclosure of Xi's early marital status. Born in 1951, 64-year-old Ke Xiaoming (Ke Lingling) is the youngest daughter of Ke Hua, the former Chinese ambassador to the UK, and Xi Jinping's ex-wife. Ke Lingling, who is well educated, is currently a senior director of a private hospital in London and a visiting professor at the School of Asian and African Medicine, University of London. She recently accepted an interview with the British "Qiao Bao". Ke Lingling married Xi Jinping in 1979. Because of her differences in values ​​and personalities, she divorced Xi Jinping who had been married for three years in 1982 and immigrated to the UK. At that time, Xi Jinping was running for the secretary of the Zhengding County Party Committee. Xi Jinping resolutely gave up the opportunity to immigrate to the UK with Ke Lingling, and accused Ke Lingling of being greedy for Western prosperity. After repeated persuasion to make Xi Jinping's immigration invalid, the two finally parted ways. Do you regret divorcing Xi Jinping? Ke: In those days, divorce was actually a very important matter. My marriage with Xi Jinping was very short. The important point is that we have almost nothing in common, so there is no regret or regret. He used to be a very persistent person and wanted to start a big career. Anyway, he didn't seem to listen to what I said, so I chose the road of divorce. It is impossible for us to have a realistic marriage and relationship with distance. My father was very against it at the time, he always thought I was reckless. Have you been in touch since then? Ke: In the first three years when I went to the UK, he called me almost every week. You know that it was inconvenient to call from China to the UK at that time. China has not yet popularized telephones, and the conditions are not as good as now, but I alone None of the calls were answered, which made him very sad. I know that he also tried to save this marriage, and I was determined at that time. Over time, we lost touch with each other. I know he still has this feeling in his heart. Did you think that Xi Jinping would become the leader of China? Ke: No, I don't think so at all. He became the President of China, and I am very happy for him, because when I left him, he was just a department-level cadre. He was an ideal guy, I always thought he had potential, but at the time his potential meant nothing to me. What kind of person do you think Xi Jinping is in your heart? Ke: Although when I was with him, we often quarreled and had great differences most of the time, but I still think he is an upright person. Like other people, he will not do some selfish things against his conscience. This is what I valued him very much before. In the past, I thought he was too stubborn, maybe it was because the time we spent together was very short, and I didn't know him very well. Looking back now, in fact, many things he did were right, but he was too young and impulsive. He is not an idealist, he does things in a planned and step-by-step manner. I may be more idealistic. After all, women will like men who understand romance, but Xi Jinping is not. I often think that he is too rigid. This has a lot to do with our growth environment and educational background. Haven't you met each other for so many years after the divorce? Ke: We met once in Shenzhen when he was the vice president of the country. That was me, my sister, and my father went back to Shenzhen to visit the grave. He came to Shenzhen to inspect work and condolences to my father. I was there at the time. He shook hands with our whole family, including me. In fact, it was an awkward meeting. We sat together for about half an hour and talked about some things. I just think he looks much older. Xi Jinping will visit the UK in October, what do you expect? Ke: The Chinese embassy has invited me through some channels to attend a welcome banquet as a representative of the British overseas Chinese community. He has been the general secretary of the Communist Party of China for three years, and his first visit to the UK is beneficial to both China and the UK. British Chinese feel very honored and very happy.

歷史哥澄清唬 https://www.facebook.com/525231778007287/posts/914879449042516/ 【澄清唬爆米花教室：被大內宣淹沒的美國總統署名投書】 先說這篇沒有圖，因為太重要不能亂放圖 在歷史上，從沒有美國總統親自投書到中華民國的報紙。但是在109年10月22日，美國準總統拜登以「More Prosperous Future For Our Families」(定稿中文標題：為我們家庭更繁榮的未來)，以華人為主體，台灣人為核心訴求，投書聯合報系的世界日報，強調他願意與中國合作而非對抗，鄙棄川普的仇中獵巫，願意與華人聯手，但更重視台灣人的健保經驗，不願台灣人為美國火中取栗而是共同繁榮。 但在一片大奇特的大內宣中，美國準總統的投書竟然在台灣地區被忽視。且不說拜登明明在聲譽卓著的 IBD/TIPP民調持續領先，比起川普根本鼓吹台灣人火中取栗(你對抗，我賺軍火，去跟大陸人死嗑來增加我談判勒索本錢)。 拜登不只親自署名投書，還誠懇說明他對台灣/兩岸的四大重點，根本是史上最誠懇與重要的待遇。既然親綠親川普主流媒體不報，那福編來報。 ★ 一、拜登堅持稱台灣是 leading democracy (領導性的民主政體)，表示其無意支持台獨立場(不稱國家) 二、拜登大篇幅強調川普仇中、卸責不科學的推卸問題給中國，造成亞裔的困擾與災難，而這不是美國總統應為。(打了那些整天喊支那賤畜以為自己就會成為高等美國人的台灣地區背祖中國人的臉) 三、拜登大談健保對一般百姓重要性，表示他珍視台灣的健保經驗，也是未來與台灣的合作重心。 四、與其獵巫與仇中，他更重視與中國的合作，希望聯盟對世界更有幫助(雖然舉例醫療與氣候，但也只是舉例) 表示願意以兩大強權的合作，謀取更多世界利益。 其他我 不多說，請看原文與譯文。 #拜登給中華民國台灣與聯合報系的面子真的太大了 #聯合報系真正展現實力 #美國總統投書首中華民國系報紙 #大內宣只在意把我們當馬前卒的喇叭川普 為我們家庭更繁榮的未來／前副總統喬瑟夫．拜登 時局多艱，我們國家處在十字路口，正面臨疾病大流行、經濟大衰退，和一場將決定我們未來很長一段時間的選舉。 今年 我們看到美國最好的一面 今年，我們看到美國最好的一面引領我們向前：英勇的醫師、護士、日常雜貨商、餐館業主、必要行業工作者 — 而其中，包括許許多多的亞裔美國人。 今年 我們也看到美國最糟情況 但我們也看到最糟的情況：亞裔美國人誤因新冠病毒遭仇視的行為比比皆是，某種程度上，是因為川普總統發布的仇恨言論所致。亞裔美國人被責備、被唾罵、被攻擊；家園、商家和汽車被侮辱性標記破壞；年幼的孩童被刺傷，還有一名89歲的奶奶，在不斷升級的仇恨文化中遭人火焚。 這不該是我們原本的樣子。 亞裔美國人 使我們國家變強大 近兩個世紀以來，亞裔美國人使我們的國家變得強大 — 從掘金礦工，到加速我們崛起的鐵路和工廠工人，再到推動我們向前邁進的科學家、建築師、藝術家和企業家們。多年來，他們的勇氣、犧牲和成功，為美國夢注入動力，也讓美國穩為自由的燈塔與世界的希望。 川普卻不懂 傷了移民國價值觀 川普總統不懂這些。他帶頭攻擊我們作為移民之國的價值觀，甚至在我們的邊境，拆散成千上萬的孩童與父母。即便在這場大流行到來之前，我們的仇恨犯罪就已達到16年以來的新高。而如今，為了轉移自己抗疫失敗、未能保護我們國家的過失，無論是否因此導致上千反亞裔的種族歧視事件，他仍堅持把新冠病毒稱作「中國病毒」。 作為總統 我捍衛每人的美國夢 措辭很重要，總統措辭更為重要。作為總統，我將捍衛每個人的美國夢，讓每一勤奮努力的家庭，享有通向繁榮和美好未來的公平機會。我將反對任何形式的種族歧視，指示司法部優先處理仇恨犯罪，以彌合仇恨與分裂的傷口，而非煽風點火。 川普失敗 他讓我們的經濟崩盤 唐納德·川普早在今年1月就已知道新冠病毒的致命性，卻未採取任何行動。現在，超過22萬美國人因此失去生命，約3000萬人失去工作、工時和薪水，五分之一的小商家關門。川普失敗的領導力讓我們的經濟崩盤 — 他總統當得愈久，得以完全回歸正軌的時間也愈久。 我會控制疫情 讓我們重回生機 八個月過去了，川普仍然沒有(抗疫)計畫。而我有。 首先要擔起責任，努力控制疫情，讓我們重回生機。我將執行早在3月就擬定的計畫，擊敗新冠病毒。我將聽取科學家、專家的意見；保護我們的家庭；讓新冠檢測、治療， #以及最終的疫苗免費，並對所有人開放。 我會重建經濟 實質救助小商家 我將馬上開始重建更好的經濟，為數百萬遭受重創的小商家提供實質救助。他們是我們社區的生命線 — 但川普腐敗的復甦作法棄他們於不顧，只把紓困資金匯集到大公司手中。75%的亞裔小企業主，未能獲得任何首輪紓困金。這是錯誤的，我已要求確保員工在50人以下的小企業獲得紓困金，我也將增加他們獲得優惠和資金的長遠渠道，減輕阻礙移民業主的語言障礙。 我不會對年收40萬元以下者加稅 質言之，我的經濟復甦計畫將回報以工作，而不只是財富，將創造未來數百萬優薪工作。(信評機構)穆迪的獨立經濟學者發現，比起川普總統的作法，我的計畫會創造多出700萬的工作，以及超過1兆元的經濟增長。我也不會對任何年收入40萬元以下者加稅 —別懷疑。相反地，我還將確保超級富豪和大公司最終支付本應承擔的份額。 讓父母能付學費 讓醫保更平價 我一路走來，都在為工薪和中產家庭而戰；他們之中有許多勤勉奮鬥的移民，來到美國是為更好的生活。我將幫助父母有能力支付子女的優質教育、提高教師薪酬，並讓絕大多數家庭免費就讀公立學院。我將讓照顧年邁父母變得更容易，讓醫療保險更平價。川普現在要通過法院，廢除「可負擔健保法」，在一場致命大流行之中，剝奪數千萬人的醫療保險，這毫無道理。 與盟友並肩 深化與台灣的關係 同時，新冠病毒證明美國不能自外於世界。從重建我們最親近夥伴的關係開始，我們必須與其他國家攜手合作，應對影響我們所有人的國際挑戰。我們是一個太平洋強國，將與盟友並肩，增進我們在亞太地區共享的繁榮、安全與價值。這其中就包括深化與台灣這個居領先地位的民主政體、主要經濟體，以及科技重鎮的關係。台灣也是開放社會可以有效控制新冠病毒的閃亮典範。 更新領導力 符合美利益與中合作 我們應對中國的方式，會聚焦增強美國競爭力，再興國內優勢，並更新我們在海外的聯盟與領導力。我們將在符合美國利益的領域與中國合作，包括公共衛生和氣候變遷。 讓家庭團聚 修復破碎的移民系統 美國向來不只靠強大的國力，而是用身為榜樣的實力領導世界。要切實重現此景，我們也必須修復破碎的移民系統，讓家庭團聚，確保美國繼續吸引全球最出色與最聰明的人。 我將會傾聽 重塑我們熱愛的國魂 我競選是為讓美國更好的重建，重建美國作為一個充滿機會，團結和有全新開始的國家；一個由數代移民讓其強大的地方；一個所有人都能發聲、每張選票都有價值的地方。我將引領這些議題，更重要的是，我會傾聽。所以，請確保你今天將選票投出。 讓我們一起，重塑我們熱愛的國魂。 (世界日報華盛頓記者羅曉媛／譯) More Prosperous Future For Our Families by Former Vice President Joseph Biden for World Journal These are tough times. Our country is at a crossroads, facing a pandemic, a recession, and an election that will decide our futures for a very long time. This year, we've seen the best of America carry us forward: heroic doctors, nurses, grocers, restaurant owners, essential workers–including so many Asian Americans. But we've also seen the worst: acts of hate against Asian Americans wrongly blamed for COVID-19, spurred on, in part, by hateful rhetoric from President Trump. They've been screamed at, spit on, and assaulted. Homes, businesses, and cars vandalized with slurs. Small children stabbed. An 89-year-old grandmother set on fire amid this rising culture of hate. This is not who we are. For nearly two centuries, Asian Americans have made our country strong–from the gold miners and railroad and factory workers who helped to power our rise; to the scientists, architects, artists, and entrepreneurs who are helping to drive us forward now. For years, their courage, sacrifices, and success have powered the American Dream and helped America stand as a beacon of freedom and hope to the world. President Trump doesn't get that. He has led an assault on our values as a nation of immigrants, even tearing thousands of children from their parents' arms at our border. Hate crimes against people are at a 16-year-high, even before this pandemic. And now, to deflect blame for his failure to protect our nation from this crisis, he insists on calling COVID-19 the "China virus," no matter how many thousands of reported racist incidents against Asian Americans it encourages. Words matter – and a president's words matter even more. As President, I'll defend the American Dream for everyone, so every hardworking family has the same fair shot at prosperity and a better future. I'll stand against racism in every form, directing the Justice Department to prioritize hate crimes, and working to heal the wounds of hatred and division, not fan the flames. Donald Trump knew how deadly COVID-19 was back in January and did nothing to stop it. Now, more than 220,000 Americans are dead. Some 30 million have lost jobs, hours, wages. One in five small businesses have shut down. Trump's failed leadership has tanked our economy – and the longer he's president, the longer it'll take to get it fully up and running again. We're eight months in, but Trump still has no plan. I do. It starts with taking responsibility and doing the hard work to control this pandemic and get our lives back. I'll implement the plan I've laid out since March to beat COVID-19. I'll listen to scientists and experts; protect our families; and make testing, treatment, and any eventual vaccine free and available to everyone. I'll get right to work building our economy back better – getting real relief out to millions of hard-hit small businesses. They're the lifeblood of our communities – but Trump's corrupt recovery passed them by, funneling funds to big corporations instead. Some 75% of Asian-owned small businesses weren't expected to get any first-round stimulus funds at all. It's wrong. I've called for ensuring small businesses with less than 50 employees get new relief funds. And I'll boost their long-term access to credit and capital, and work to ease the language barriers that can hold back immigrant entrepreneurs. Through it all, my economic recovery plan will reward work, not just wealth, creating millions of good paying jobs of the future. Independent economists at Moody's found that my plan creates 7 million more jobs – and $1 trillion more in economic growth – than President Trump's would. And I won't raise taxes on anyone earning less than $400,000 a year – period. Instead, I'll make sure the super wealthy and big corporations finally pay their fair share. I've fought my whole career for working and middle class families – so many of them hard-working immigrants who came to America in search of a better life. I'll help parents afford a quality education for their kids, boosting teacher pay and making public college free for most families. I'll make it easier to care for aging parents, and make health care more affordable. Trump is in court right now trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act, stripping tens of millions of people of health coverage in the middle of a deadly pandemic. It makes no sense. Meanwhile, COVID-19 is proof that the United States can't isolate itself from the world. We have to work with other nations to meet global challenges that impact us all, starting by rebuilding our relationships with our closest partners. We're a Pacific power, and we'll stand with friends and allies to advance our shared prosperity, security, and values in the Asia-Pacific region. That includes deepening our ties with Taiwan, a leading democracy, major economy, technology powerhouse – and a shining example of how an open society can effectively contain COVID-19. And our approach to China will focus on boosting American competitiveness, revitalizing our strengths at home, and renewing our alliances and leadership abroad. We'll work to collaborate with China when it's in our interest, including on public health and climate change. America has always led the world not only with the example of our power, but the power of our example. To truly do that again, we also have to fix our broken immigration system, keeping families together and ensuring the United States continues to draw the world's best and brightest. I'm running to build America back better, as a country of opportunity, unity, and new beginnings. A place made strong by generations of immigrants. A place where everyone has a voice and every vote counts. I'll lead on these issues, and more importantly, I'll listen. So please make sure you get your vote in today. Together we'll restore the soul of this nation we love. #福編編譯? (編譯個鬼，是世界日報了不起！ 大內宣與遍地綠媒鬼遮眼)
