Most of my clothes don't fit me anymore. S: I know the feeling. I'd like to lose some weight, too. R: Hey, why don't we make a change together? S: Do you mean like a New Year's resolution? R: Yes. Let's promise to get in shape. Maybe we can even join a gym. S: That's a good idea. We can also cut out junk food. R: Oh, that's going to be hard for me, but I promise to try. S: Great! It's time to treat our bodies better. Part A：身體健康和健美體態 理查：我受不了自己這麼胖，我大部分的衣服都穿不下了。 蘇珊：我懂這種感受，我也想要減重。 理查：嘿，我們何不一起做點改變呢？ 蘇珊：你是指像訂定新年目標那樣嗎？ 理查：對啊，我們來立下承諾要擁有健美的體態，或許我們還可以加入健身房。 蘇珊：好主意，我們也可以戒掉垃圾食物。 理查：噢，那對我來說會很難，但我保證會試試看。 蘇珊：太好了！該是更加善待我們身體的時候了。 Part B: For Finances Miranda and Robert are talking about their resolutions for the new year. 米蘭達和羅伯特正在討論他們的新年新希望。 (Miranda = M ; Robert = R) M: Guess what!

So, I cut all my cards to stop me from using them. M: You did that already? That's very brave of you. R: If I don't act right away, I will wait and may never take action. M: I see. Well, I plan to put half of my pay in the bank every month. R: That's very smart of you. Part B：財務方面 米蘭達：你知道嗎？我立下的一個新年願望是少花一點錢。 羅伯特：真的嗎？我的願望也是減少支出。 米蘭達：真不錯！你要採取什麼方法？ 羅伯特：我有信用卡債，所以為了不再使用信用卡，我把它們全都剪了。 米蘭達：你已經那麼做了嗎？真勇敢。 羅伯特：如果不馬上執行，我就會一直拖延，而且可能永遠不會採取行動。 米蘭達：我明白了。嗯，我打算每個月把一半的薪水存入銀行。 羅伯特：真是明智之舉。 Part C: For Learning and Development Tony and Martha are sharing their New Year's resolutions. 東尼和瑪莎正在分享他們的新年展望。 (Tony = T ; Martha = M) T: Did you make any New Year's resolutions this year?

Download or read book Hags written by Victoria Smith and published by Fleet. This book was released on 2023-03-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Rich, complex and witty' ROSE GEORGE, SPECTATOR 'Devastating and clever' BEL MOONEY, DAILY MAIL 'Could not be more necessary' RACHEL COOKE, OBSERVER What is about women in their forties and beyond that seems to enrage - almost everyone? In the last few years, as identity politics have taken hold, middle-aged women have found themselves talked and written about as morally inferior beings: the face of bigotry, entitlement and selfishness, to be ignored, pitied or abused. In Hags, Victoria Smith asks why these women are treated with such active disdain. Each chapter takes a different theme - care work, beauty, violence, political organization, sex - and explores it in relation to middle-aged women's beliefs, bodies, histories and choices. Smith traces the attitudes she describes through history, and explores the very specific reasons why this type of misogyny is so very now. The result is a book that is absorbing, insightful, witty and bang on time.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Digital Media Sociology written by Deana A. Rohlinger and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 745 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital media are normal. But this was not always true. For a long time, lay discourse, academic exhortations, pop culture narratives, and advocacy groups constructed new Information and communications technologies (ICTs) as exceptional. Whether they were believed to be revolutionary, dangerous, rife with opportunity, or other-worldly, these tools and technologies were framed as extraordinary. But digital media are now mundane, thoroughly embedded - and often unquestioned - in everyday life. Digital ICTs are enmeshed in health and wellness, work and organizations, elections, capital flows, intimate relationships, social movements, and even our own identities. And although the study of these technologies has always been interdisciplinary - at the crossroads of computer science, cultural studies, science and technology studies, and communications - never has a sociological perspective been more valuable. Sociology has always excelled at helping us re-see the normal. The Oxford Handbook of Digital Media Sociology is a perfect point of entry for those curious about the state of sociological research on digital media. Each chapter reviews the sociological research that has been done thus far and points towards unanswered questions. The 34 chapters in the Handbook are arranged in six sections which look at digital media as they relate to: theory, social institutions, everyday life, community and identity, social inequalities, and politics & power. More than ever, the contributors to this volume help make it a centralizing resource, pulling together the various strands of sociological research focused on digital media. In addition to providing a distinctly sociological center for those scholars looking to find their way in the subfield, the volume offers top sociological research that provides an overview of digital media to explain our quickly changing world to a broader public. Readers will find it accessible enough for use in class, and thorough enough for seasoned professionals interested in a concise update in their areas of interest.

Download or read book Housing Booms in Gateway Cities written by David Ley and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOUSING BOOMS IN GATEWAY CITIES “David Ley examines the development of housing booms, and policies intended to stimulate or limit them. Utilising a comparative approach in five gateway cities, he provides a superb understanding of the politics of booms, lifting the debate beyond narrow housing and real estate studies. This book is required reading for anyone interested in global cities, housing markets, or comparative urbanism.” —Manuel B. Aalbers, Professor of Human Geography, KU Leuven, Belgium “A stellar contribution to housing and its financialisation as central to the capitalist project globally, Housing Booms offers a wonderful window into the ascendancy of the secondary circuit of real estate in Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, Vancouver, and London. Critically, through careful, empirically rigorous comparison, an eminent urban social scientist urges us to understand the importance of placing urban housing theoretically.” —Loretta Lees, Director of the Initiative on Cities, Boston University “Mastering a wealth of information and insights from five gateway cities, David Ley provides fresh and inspiring explanation of both common global logics and diverse local trajectories of housing booms in the era of financialisation and asset-based accumulation. A timely and ground-breaking contribution, (re)positioning housing to the centrality pervasively felt in everyday life but largely unacknowledged in mainstream social science.” —George Lin, Chair Professor of Geography, University of Hong Kong In Housing Booms in Gateway Cities, renowned geographer Dr. David Ley delivers a detailed exploration of housing markets in Hong Kong, Singapore, Sydney, Vancouver, and London and explains why these gateway cities have seen dramatic increases in residential real estate prices since the 1980s. The author describes how the globalization of real estate has rapidly inflated demand and uncoupled local housing prices from local wages, causing acute problems of affordability, availability, and inequality. The book implicates government policy in massive real estate price inflation, describing a shift from welfare-based to asset-based societies. It also highlights the relatively unique experience in Singapore, where asset-based housing policy has encouraged the dispersion of ownership and accumulation through an increased supply of subsidized leasehold apartments and the regulation of disruptive investment flows. Housing Booms in Gateway Cities is an ideal resource for academics, students and policymakers with an interest in urban geography, sociology, and planning, housing studies, and any of the cities discussed in the book. It is an innovative treatment of housing as a central category in wealth accumulation in urban economies and societies.

Download or read book The Unruly Ocean written by Erika Techera and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces non-specialist readers to the history of how human societies have sought to control, use and exploit our oceans, seas and shorelines over time in different geographical and cultural contexts. The Unruly Ocean examines the development of the modern international legal regime – the law of the sea, maritime law, marine environmental and pollution law, fisheries regulation, and underwater cultural heritage law – and considers how effective these laws have been in addressing the many challenges facing marine and coastal environments ranging from piracy and war to oil spills and the extraction of marine resources. It concludes by discussing the socio-ecological crises facing the world’s oceans, seas and shorelines, and explores current ideas for reimagining a legal regime that restores the health of our oceanic realm and offers a more holistic, transboundary, rights-based approach to ocean governance. This book will be of value to law and non-law undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as research scholars and other educated audiences interested in a legal history of the world’s oceans, seas and shorelines.

Download or read book Detailed Reports on the Salzburger Emigrants Who Settled in America written by Ben Marsh and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eighteen volumes of Detailed Reports on the Salzburger Emigrants Who Settled in America (reproduced in sixteen discrete books) contain the diaries and letters of Lutheran pastors who ministered to the Salzburgers, German-speaking Protestant refugees, in Georgia. Samuel Urlsperger collected and edited these writings into the Urlsperger Reports printed at Orphanage Press, Halle, Germany, from 1735 to 1760. The original German publication, Ausführliche Nachricht von den saltzburgischen Emigranten, is available through the Internet Archive, but this English-language translation has not been available online until now. In the mid-eighteenth century, Samuel Urlsperger of the Lutheran Ministry in Augsburg edited the German edition of the Detailed Reports after having distributed the many reports to the faithful in Germany. He made major deletions for both diplomatic and economic reasons and suppressed proper names. His son, Johann August Urlsperger, succeeded him. He took even greater liberties with the text, deleting large sections and rearranging others. The English version, translated and edited by George Fenwick Jones, a German scholar, restores the deleted sections and the proper names and provides the original sequencing of the material. The Detailed Reports offer insight into daily life in colonial Georgia and provide precious details and vignettes on subjects that receive less attention in other sources, notably African Americans, women, silk production, and the cost of goods in a frontier colony. The Reports are an underutilized resource for the study of this period and an unparalleled source for the evolution of a rural community during the early years of the colony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The official report by the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol, featuring an exclusive foreword on the state of American democracy by Congressman Adam Schiff On January 6, 2021, the United States came perilously close to losing its democracy. A mob instigated by the president of the United States violently attacked the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., seeking to disrupt the certification of the electors in the presidential election and prevent the peaceful transfer of power for the first time in American history. The attack was the culmination of a plot organized and driven by a defeated president, attempting to remain in power through a complex web of deceit, intimidation, and violence. This is the official report of the investigation into the attack—perhaps the most vital congressional investigation in American history—with exhibits, witness testimony, and an exclusive foreword by Congressman Adam Schiff, who offers critical insights into this harrowing chapter in American history.
