Since arriving in Hollywood from her native Australia 10 years ago, she has been in two dozen movies and is one of the best actresses in Hollywood today. She also founded her own production company and, in 2017, made Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. So what is Robbie’s secret to success? Though her talent is a key factor, it’s her drive and her contributions to reshaping Hollywood for women that have made her stand out. As an actress, Robbie is extremely versatile. In her breakthrough role, she starred as the tough, Brooklyn-accented Naomi LaPaglia in The Wolf of Wall Street, clearly outshining her male costar, Leonardo DiCaprio. Robbie went on to play a wide range of other characters, including Jane Porter, Tarzan’s love interest in The Legend of Tarzan, and Harley Quinn, a crazy, roller-skating psychiatrist, in Suicide Squad. But it wasn’t until 2017, when Robbie played the real-life figure skater Tonya Harding in I, Tonya, that her acting won the hearts of everyone. The movie, which Robbie also produced, earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress. 二十九歲的瑪格.羅比有許多值得欽佩之處。自從十年前從家鄉澳洲來到好萊塢後,她已經演出了二十多部電影,是當今好萊塢最優秀的女演員之一。她還創立了自己的製作公司,並在二○一七年成為《時代》雜誌全球百大最具影響力人物。所以羅比成功的祕訣是什麼?雖然她的才華是主要的因素,但讓她脫穎而出的正是她的衝勁以及重塑好萊塢女性形象的貢獻。 作為一名演員,羅比非常多才多藝。在她的突破性角色中,她在《華爾街之狼》裡飾演了粗暴、帶有布魯克林口音的娜歐蜜.拉帕格利亞,顯然比聯袂主演的男星李奧納多.狄卡皮歐還要出色。羅比繼續飾演其他各式各樣的角色,包括珍.波特(《泰山傳奇》中泰山的戀愛對象)以及《自殺突擊隊》裡的哈莉.奎茵(一名瘋狂、穿著溜冰鞋的精神科醫師)。 但直到二○一七年羅比在《老娘叫譚雅》中飾演真實生活中的花式溜冰選手譚雅.哈丁,她的演技才擄獲了大家的心。這部羅比也參與製作的電影為她贏得了奧斯卡最佳女主角的提名。 Growing up, Margot Robbie knew she had to fight her way to the top. She was born on a farm in Queensland, Australia, and her father abandoned the family when Robbie was little, leaving her mother to raise her and her three siblings. While studying drama in high school, Robbie held three jobs to help make ends meet. Later, she got a role in a popular Australian TV soap opera after calling the company multiple times and refusing to take no for an answer. Three years later, she left the show for Hollywood. Besides acting, Robbie has done notable work in film production. With I, Tonya under her belt, Robbie took on new projects such as Birds of Prey, featuring Harley Quinn, and Promising Young Woman, about a tragedy-stricken, vengeance-seeking young woman. It’s not surprising that female characters are the focus of these films. Speaking publicly, Robbie pointed out that many women in Hollywood have to “struggle for the right to earn a living, [and] the right to be heard.” Through acting and film production, Robbie gives women stronger representation in the movie business―and that’s certainly a welcome contribution. 在成長過程中,瑪格.羅比知道她得努力才能爬上顛峰。她出生在澳洲昆士蘭省的一個農場,父親在羅比還小的時候就拋下家庭,留下母親撫養她和三個兄弟姐妹。在中學唸戲劇時,羅比兼了三份差來維持收支平衡。後來,她在一部受歡迎的澳洲電視肥皂劇中獲得一角,是在她打了很多次電話給該公司且不接受拒絕作為回答後。三年後,她離開這個節目前往好萊塢。 除了演戲以外,羅比在電影製作方面也做得有聲有色。由於有《老娘叫譚雅》的經驗,羅比還接下新的電影企劃,像是以小丑女為主角的《猛禽小隊:小丑女大解放》,以及《有希望的年輕女人》,此片是關於一位遭遇不幸而尋求復仇的年輕女子。 這些電影聚焦在女性角色上並不意外。羅比曾公開指出,在好萊塢許多女性得要「為謀生和發表意見的權利奮鬥」。透過演出和電影製作,羅比賦予女性在電影業更深刻的描繪——那無疑是一項令人欣喜的貢獻。

I just love sunny days! A: To tell you the truth, I don’t care for them. I don’t want to get dark. D: I do. The sun helps our bodies produce vitamin D. A: Also, it’s boiling when it’s sunny and humid. D: I won’t argue with that. However, it’s so lovely when it’s sunny, dry, and just a little windy. A: Not for me. Rainy days are still the best. D: Really? Why? A: I love the sound of rain, and it makes everything smell so clean and fresh. Part A: 丹尼斯:妳看那萬里無雲的天空,我實在好喜歡晴天! 愛波: 老實跟你說,我不喜歡晴天。我不想曬黑。 丹尼斯:我倒是想曬黑,陽光能幫助人體製造維他命D。 愛波: 而且晴朗又潮濕的天氣簡直要把人給熱暈了。 丹尼斯:關於那點我沒話說,不過,晴朗乾燥又有微風吹拂的天氣相當怡人。 愛波: 我不覺得。還是下雨天最好。 丹尼斯:是嗎?為什麼? 愛波: 我喜歡下雨的聲音,而且雨水讓所有的東西聞起來都好清新。 Part B April and Dennis are changing their plans because of the weather. 愛波與丹尼斯因為天氣要更改他們的計畫。 (Dennis = D ; April = A) D: I have some bad news.

D: No. I’m talking about a storm with thunder, lightning, and heavy rain. A: Oh, I see. What do you suggest we do? D: I don’t want to take any chances. Let’s put the picnic off. A: OK, if you think that’s the best thing to do. Part B 丹尼斯:我有個壞消息,我們必須取消明天的野餐。 愛波: 為什麼?只是有點陰天而已。 丹尼斯:嗯,我剛剛查了天氣預報,有暴風雨要來。 愛波: 什麼?我沒聽說有颱風啊。 丹尼斯:不是的,我是說有打雷、閃電和豪大雨的那種暴風雨。 愛波: 喔,原來如此。那你建議我們要怎麼做? 丹尼斯:我完全不想冒險,就把野餐延後吧。 愛波: 好,如果你覺得那是最好的做法。 Part C April and Dennis are preparing for a bad storm. 愛波與丹尼斯在為一場強烈的暴風雪做準備。 (April = A ; Dennis = D) A: Wow! It’s really foggy out. D: It’s only going to get worse, so we need to prepare for the big snow storm. A: Right. We already have warm blankets and new batteries for the flashlights. D: Good. It’s going to be really cold and snowy. A: If it drops down to freezing, then the water in the pipes will turn into ice. D: Correct, so we need to collect and save water for drinking and cleaning. A: OK. I’ll start doing that now. D: Great. I’ll check how much food we have. Part C 愛波: 哇!外面一片霧茫茫的。 丹尼斯:天氣只會愈來愈糟,所以我們要做好準備,迎接強烈暴風雪。 愛波: 對。我們已經有保暖的毯子,也有手電筒要用的新電池。 丹尼斯:很好,天氣會變得很冷,還會下雪。 愛波: 如果氣溫降到冰點,那水管裡的水會結冰。 丹尼斯:是啊,所以我們需要儲水來飲用和清潔。 愛波: 好的,我現在就去儲水。 丹尼斯:好,我去看一下我們有多少食物。

Palawan, located in the Philippines, has been so honored three years running by Travel + Leisure magazine. Famed for its beaches, caves, mountains, and jungles, Palawan is full of natural wonders and has a special culture of its own. Many people know Palawan for its many gorgeous beaches. In fact, the pristine beaches near the town of El Nido were the inspiration for the film The Beach. A boat tour is a great way for tourists to take in the islands off Palawan’s northern tip. Make sure your tour includes Miniloc Island, where you’ll find deep blue lagoons surrounded by towering limestone formations. Brave and fortunate snorkelers should stop by Matinloc Island for a chance to discover Secret Beach—but only if they time the tide right. For travelers with guts, Palawan also offers a unique man-made diving experience. During World War II, several Japanese ships were sunk in Coron Bay. Novice divers can explore the outside of the ships to see beautiful coral formations growing on these former machines of war. Expert divers can explore inside the ships, discovering empty rooms and lost treasures in the dark depths. 當你能去其中一個最棒的島嶼時,為何反而要將就一般的島?位在菲律賓的巴拉望連續三年受到Travel + Leisure雜誌推崇。巴拉望的沙灘、洞穴、山峰與叢林遠近馳名,充滿許多自然奇景和擁有自己獨特的文化。 許多人因為它許多美麗的沙灘而知道巴拉望。事實上,在愛妮島附近原始未受汙染的沙灘是電影《海灘》的靈感來源。搭船遊覽是遊客欣賞巴拉望北端附近的島嶼很棒的方式。你的行程一定要包括米尼洛克島,在那裡你會發現被高聳石灰岩層環繞的深藍色潟湖。為了有機會探訪祕密海灘,勇敢且幸運的浮潛客應該造訪馬丁洛克島——但前提是他們有算好潮汐時間。 對於有膽量的遊客,巴拉望也提供獨特人造的潛水體驗。第二次世界大戰期間,好幾艘日本船艦在科隆灣沉沒。新手潛水客可在船艦外面探索,看看生長在這些往日的戰爭機器上的美麗珊瑚結構。經驗老道的潛水客能探索船艦內部,在黑暗深處探尋空蕩蕩的船艙和遺落的寶物。 5/27 Besides the beaches, one of Palawan’s most famous locations is the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, which contains one of the longest underground rivers in the world. You can paddle about 1.5 kilometers into the cave system and float in total darkness. Over time, the water has created astonishing rock formations that visitors can admire. Don’t forget to watch out for the bats that call the caverns* home! The natural areas of Palawan are so beautiful that many visitors skip the capital city of Puerto Princesa, to their loss. The city possesses many of the island’s best restaurants. On the outskirts of Puerto Princesa is a sight most tourists don’t see: Iwahig, an open prison that focuses on reform instead of punishment. Prisoners here work on farms or sell handmade objects to visitors, and the profit they make goes into savings they receive after their release. Many regard Palawan as one of the last unspoiled frontiers in the world. It’s a place where rocks, sand, and water create magical vistas,* and unbelievable experiences happen every day. Whether you want to visit hidden beaches, mysterious caves, or urban Palawan, spend some time in this slice of heaven soon, before you have to come back down to earth. 除了沙灘,巴拉望最著名的地點之一是公主港地下河國家公園,這裡有世界上數一數二長的地底河。你可以划大約一點五公里進入洞穴體系,漂浮在一片漆黑中。經年累月,這裡的河水形成了遊客可以欣賞的令人讚嘆的岩石結構。別忘了要小心以洞穴為家的蝙蝠! 巴拉望的自然地區美不勝收,以致於許多遊客跳過了首府公主港,那是他們的損失。這個城市有許多島上最棒的餐廳。在公主港市郊有一處大多數遊客都沒注意到的景點:伊瓦希格,一座著重在改正而非懲罰的開放式監獄。這裡的囚犯在農場工作,或將手工製品賣給遊客,而他們賺得的利潤會進到他們出獄後得到的存款中。 許多人認為巴拉望是世界上最後的淨土之一。這是一個由岩石、沙子和水創造出神奇美景的地方,每天都會發生令人難以置信的體驗。無論你想造訪隱密的沙灘、神祕的洞穴或都市面的巴拉望,在你必須回到現實世界之前,趕緊花點時間來這個天堂一隅吧。 News Report 看新聞學英語 Wildfires Ravage Australia’s Ecosystem 澳洲野火肆虐危及生態 Literature 文學花園 The Invisible Girl 〈看不見的女孩〉 Plus Talk 會話百分百 Expressing Compliments and Complaints 表達讚美和不滿 1.

Companies Jump into Coronavirus Fight 企業伸援手,共同面對新冠肺炎 -Jay Sailors 8/4 When the coronavirus became a pandemic earlier this year, companies and business leaders around the world wasted no time in joining the fight against it. Their efforts, often creative, included making protective gear for hospitals and frontline health-care workers, producing vital equipment for saving patients’ lives, and, perhaps most importantly, supplying the funds and resources needed to develop a vaccine. Back in March, when many places began experiencing shortages of essential supplies, some companies realized they could help by adapting their production equipment to new uses. For instance, when hand sanitizer became scarce, luxury goods company LVMH, owner of high-end brands like Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, and Givenchy, used three of its perfume factories in France to turn out tons of hand-sanitizing gel for hospital workers. Other big names in fashion, including Ralph Lauren and Carolina Herrera, contributed to relief efforts by producing face masks and medical gowns. And if the correct material wasn’t on hand, no problem. Fanatics, maker of baseball jerseys, stepped up to the plate and produced protective masks and gowns using the same material they normally use to make baseball uniforms. 當新冠病毒在今年初演變成大流行,世界各地的公司和企業領導人都立即加入了這場對抗病毒的奮戰。他們的努力通常具有創意,包括為醫院和前線醫護人員製作防護裝備、生產拯救病人生命的重要設備,以及或許是最重要的,提供研發疫苗所需的資金和資源。 在今年三月,當時許多地方開始面臨必要物資短缺,一些公司意識到他們能藉由調整生產設備改作新的用途來提供協助。舉例來說,手部消毒液供不應求時,奢侈品公司路威酩軒集團(LVMH),旗下擁有高級品牌如路易威登(Louis Vuitton)、迪奧(Christian Dior)和紀梵希(Givenchy),利用在法國的三家香水工廠生產大量的乾洗手給醫院工作人員使用。 其他知名時尚品牌包括雷夫羅倫(Ralph Lauren)和卡羅琳娜海萊拉(Carolina Herrera)生產口罩和醫療用手術袍為救援行動做出貢獻。如果手邊沒有適合的材料也不成問題。棒球衣製造商Fanatics挺身而出,使用他們平常用來製造棒球制服的相同原料來生產防護口罩和手術袍。 8/5 A vital piece of medical equipment for treating COVID-19 patients is the ventilator, a machine that helps patients breathe. As the number of gravely ill patients grew, many hospitals were experiencing drastic shortages of this much-needed device. That’s when automobile companies General Motors, Mercedes-AMG, and Tesla stepped in to help by producing these lifesaving devices. Business leaders also joined in the fight, among the most noticeable being Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who put almost one-third of his $3.6 billion fortune into a coronavirus relief fund. Meanwhile, Bill Gates, Alibaba founder Jack Ma, and others together pledged over US$1.2 billion toward various efforts. The most important goal, though, has been finding a vaccine, and here the contribution of entrepreneurs isn’t lacking either. Through his foundation, Bill Gates plans to fund the construction of factories for seven coronavirus vaccine candidates, with the goal of selecting one or two that would most likely be successful. COVID-19 has produced the biggest health and economic crisis the world has experienced in decades. It’s good to know that such companies and business leaders have, with their global reach, contributed to the fight against this disease. 治療新冠肺炎患者的一樣重要醫療器材就是呼吸器,這是幫助病人呼吸的機器。隨著重症病患數量逐漸增加,許多醫院都面臨這個迫切需要的裝置嚴重短缺。那時汽車公司通用汽車(General Motors)、AMG(Mercedes-AMG)和特斯拉(Tesla)介入幫忙生產這些救命的裝置。 企業領導人也加入這場抗戰,其中最引人注目的就是推特執行長傑克.多西,他將自己三十六億美元的財產近三分之一投入新冠病毒的救濟金。同時,比爾.蓋茲、阿里巴巴創辦人馬雲等都共同承諾了超過十二億美元用於各項行動的捐款。 不過,最重要的目標一直是找到疫苗,在此也不乏企業家的貢獻。比爾.蓋茲計畫透過他的基金會,資助七家新冠疫苗的候選廠商興建工廠,目標是從中選出一、兩家最有可能成功的。 新冠肺炎已造成數十年來全世界所面臨最大的健康和經濟危機。很高興知道有這些公司和企業領導人,以他們的全球影響力致力於對抗這個疾病。 News Report 看新聞學英語 Pandemic Could Cause Famines of “Biblical Proportions” 新冠肺炎疫情可能導致「聖經等級」饑荒 Corporate Contribution 企業回饋 Companies Jump into Coronavirus Fight 企業伸援手,共同面對新冠肺炎 Culture 文化理解 Don’t Stand So Close to Me! 個人空間停看聽 CNN News Taiwan’s Baseball Season Kicks Off—with a New Global Fan Base 台灣棒球季領先全球開打 Dialogue Focus 情境對話 A World of Animals 圖解動物英語 Going to the Zoo! 來去動物園!

The main character is a loyal pet mongoose who saves his family from death at the hands of a pair of cobras. For most people, this story is their first and only exposure to these slender-bodied, bushy-tailed, and highly curious animals, so there is much that people don’t understand about them. For instance, many believe a mongoose’s superpower is being immune to snake venom. After all, in the Kipling story, the mongoose survives a visit to a cobra’s den. The reality is that while mongooses can tolerate quite a lot of snake venom, they will die if they sustain enough bites. Luckily, mongooses have a fighting strategy that puts them mostly out of the reach of a snake’s strike. A mongoose will circle around the snake, biting its tail and causing it to repeatedly strike in defense. Eventually the snake wearies, a situation that gives the mongoose a chance to deliver a final fatal6 blow to the back of the snake’s head. In this way, mongooses win around 80 percent of their fights with snakes—even against the most dangerous kinds. 由魯德亞德.吉卜林根據印度民間故事撰寫的〈貓鼬〉,是以動物界最凶猛的殺手:獴(俗稱貓鼬)為主角。主角是一隻忠心的寵物貓鼬,牠從兩隻眼鏡蛇手中拯救了主人一家的性命。對大多數人來說,這個故事是他們第一次也是唯一一次接觸這些體型細長、長著毛茸茸的尾巴且充滿好奇心的動物,所以人們對牠們並不是很了解。 例如,很多人認為貓鼬的超強能力在於不受蛇毒影響。畢竟,在吉卜林的故事中,那隻貓鼬到眼鏡蛇的巢穴還能存活下來。事實是,儘管貓鼬能承受相當大量的蛇毒,但牠們如果被咬得夠多還是會死亡。 幸好,貓鼬有一套打鬥策略讓牠們大多不會遭到蛇類攻擊。貓鼬會繞著蛇轉圈,咬住牠的尾巴,讓牠不斷地防衛攻擊。最後蛇筋疲力竭,這個情況讓貓鼬有機會朝蛇的後腦勺使出最後致命一擊。這麼一來,貓鼬與蛇對戰大約有八成的勝率——即使是對上最危險的種類。 4/17 The mongoose’s reputation as a capable killer has made it a popular companion animal for centuries since they keep their owners safe and their owners’ property pest-free. They were held in great regard by ancient Egyptians for daring to eat the eggs of crocodiles. Like the Egyptians, other groups throughout history have seen mongooses as lucky or even sacred. Deciding to capitalize on the mongoose’s skills, farmers in Hawaii and the West Indies imported the animal during the 1890s to help eliminate rats from their sugarcane fields. There were two major problems with this plan: unlike rats, mongooses are active during the day, and they will generally eat whatever prey is easiest to find and kill. On these islands, the easiest sources of prey were the native bird and reptile populations. This resulted in the mongooses’ harming sea turtles and causing ground-nesting birds in Jamaica to go extinct. Due to the damage they can bring about, keeping mongooses is now illegal in the United States and several other countries. Though they threaten animals in places where they’ve been introduced, mongooses are themselves threatened in their native habitats because of farming and land development. It seems even such fierce killers cannot withstand the force that is humankind. 貓鼬身為優秀殺手的名聲使其在好幾個世紀以來都是受歡迎的動物同伴,因為牠們能保護主人安全、使其財產免受蟲害。牠們因為敢吃鱷魚蛋而備受古埃及人敬重。像埃及人一樣,歷史上有其他團體都認為貓鼬帶來好運或甚至是神聖的。 夏威夷跟西印度群島的農民決心要善用貓鼬的技能,在一八九○年代進口此動物來幫忙消滅甘蔗田裡的老鼠。這項計畫有兩個大問題:不像老鼠,貓鼬在白天活動,且牠們通常會吃最容易找到且撲殺的任何獵物。在這些島上,最容易捕獲的獵物來源就是原生的鳥類跟爬蟲類,這導致貓鼬危害海龜,並造成牙買加在地面築巢的鳥類滅絕。由於牠們可能招致的損害,在美國及其他幾個國家,現在飼養貓鼬是違法的。 雖然牠們威脅到牠們被引進地區的動物,但因為農業及土地開發,貓鼬自己在牠們的原生地也受到了威脅。似乎連如此凶猛的殺手都無法抵抗的力量就是人類。 News Report 看新聞學英語 Cambodia’s Angkor Wat Bans Elephant Rides for Tourists 吳哥窟宣布禁騎大象 Literature 文學花園 The $30,000 Bequest 〈三萬元遺產〉 Plus Talk 會話百分百 Showing That You Care 用英語表達關心 1.

What are you reading? H: It’s a biography of Grace Hopper. She helped invent one of the first computer languages. D: I’ve never seen you read nonfiction before. When did you take it up? H: You’re joking, right? I read nonfiction all the time. D: Like what? I only own a cookbook and dictionary. H: I really enjoy reading books about travel. D: Do you mean travel guides? H: No. I’m talking about travel journals. Besides useful information, they have interesting and humorous stories. Part A 戴芬妮:嘿,那看起來不像小說,你在看什麼? 荷馬:是葛麗絲‧ 霍普的自傳,她是協助創造第一代電腦語言的一員。 戴芬妮:我之前從沒看過你閱讀非小說類的書籍,你什麼時候開始涉獵的? 荷馬:妳在開玩笑嗎?我一直以來都會讀非小說類的書。 戴芬妮:比方說?我只有一本食譜和字典而已。 荷馬:我非常喜歡看旅遊相關書籍。 戴芬妮:你是指旅遊指南嗎? 荷馬:不是,我說的是旅遊日誌。它們除了實用資訊之外,還有有趣又幽默的故事。還有有趣又幽默的故事。 Part B Homer and Daphne have a deeper discussion about books. 荷馬和戴芬妮更深入聊關於書的話題。 (Homer = H ; Daphne = D) H: Don’t get me wrong—I also love reading fiction. I especially enjoy poetry and mysteries. D: I don’t get the former one, so I don’t read it. However, I love the latter to death. H: I just finished one about a financial genius. He found a way to make a lot of money quickly. D: Then, someone killed him because they were greedy and wanted his money and power. H: I see you read it already. D: Of course! That book was a real page-turner. H: It’s one of my favorites. D: Mine too. Part B 荷馬:別誤會,我也喜歡看虛構文學,尤其是詩集和推理小說。 戴芬妮:我對詩一知半解,所以不讀。不過,我非常喜歡推理小說。 荷馬:我剛看完一本關於金融天才的推理小說,他找到一個快速致富的方法。 戴芬妮:然後,因為有人貪得無厭,想要得到那位天才的金錢與權力,所以就殺了他。 荷馬:想必妳已經讀過了。 戴芬妮:當然!那本書非常引人入勝。 荷馬:那是我最喜歡的推理小說之一。 戴芬妮:我也是。 Part C Daphne and Homer learn more about each other’s taste in books. 戴芬妮和荷馬得知更多彼此對書籍的喜好。 (Daphne = D ; Homer = H) D: As a kid, I couldn’t get enough of fairy tales and fantasies. H: Was it the handsome prince rescuing the beautiful princess and saving the day? D: No. I fell in love with the principle that anything is possible. Also, the universe didn’t just exist in one form. H: No way! That’s how I felt about comic books. D: I never got into those because I like to use my own imagination. H: Now I do, but I didn’t as a kid. D: So comics helped you? H: Yes, they gave me a very precious gift. Part C 戴芬妮:小時候,我非常喜歡童話和奇幻故事。 荷馬:是因為有帥氣的王子拯救美麗的公主,然後化險為夷的情節嗎? 戴芬妮:不,我喜歡的是凡事皆有可能的原則,還有這個宇宙不是只以單一樣貌存在。 荷馬:不會吧!那正是我對漫畫的想法。 戴芬妮:我對漫畫從不感興趣,因為我喜歡運用自己的想像力。 荷馬:我現在喜歡這麼做,但我小時候沒什麼想像力。 戴芬妮:所以漫畫有幫助到你? 荷馬:是的,它們給了我非常珍貴的禮物。

Kobe Bean Bryant was born August 23, 1978, the son of former NBA player Joe Bryant. He started playing basketball when he was three, but it was his spectacular high school career at Lower Merion High School just outside Philly that earned him national recognition. He was quickly drafted into the NBA—at the time, the youngest player in the league’s history. UNIDENTIFIED MALE No one talking about any shortness or a weakness in his game. JERRY WEST, FORMER LOS ANGELES LAKERS GENERAL MANAGER Greatness lies ahead for this young man. [I] thought he was gonna be absolutely fantastic. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT The Charlotte Hornets selected Bryant as their 13th pick and immediately traded him to the Los Angeles Lakers. KOBE BRYANT, FORMER NBA PLAYER I think a lot of people … even when I came out of high school, I think people were, kind of, kinda giving me the cold shoulder to begin with, ’cause I think, unfortunately, some people wanted me to fail because I defied the odds. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT Bryant would not just beat the odds … UNIDENTIFIED MALE NBA ANNOUNCER Kobe Bryant. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT … in his 20-year career with the Lakers, he would crush them. His amazing talent and fierce, competitive nature made him one of sport’s most famous and decorated athletes. He would win five NBA championships— earning him superstar status with a generation of fans. BASKETBALL FANS Kobe. Kobe. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT He also won two NBA Finals MVP awards and a regular season MVP in 2008. The same year, he won his first Olympic gold medal as a member of the U.S. team. Here he is talking about what that Olympic thrill felt like. KOBE BRYANT, FORMER NBA PLAYER I’m feeling excited. I mean, it’s a great opportunity, and, you know, I think for us to draw the first game playing against the host team is a little tough, but we understand the enthusiasm here in the city and, you know … and we’re proud and just … we really can’t wait to get going. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT Bryant would strike Olympic gold again in 2012. He would also earn 18 NBA All-Star selections. It was Bryant who was at the center of one of the NBA’s most memorable games [on] January 22, 2006, when he scored 81 points with the Lakers, defeating Toronto. But there was also controversy. In 2003, he was charged with sexual assault, accused of attacking a 19-year-old hotel employee. The charge would later be dropped; the case [was] settled in civil court. Recovering from adversity would become another Kobe trademark. Bryant refused to admit he was hurt, even when he was—famously shooting free throws after rupturing his Achilles tendon. Time would eventually prove to be his greatest opponent. In the fall of 2015, he announced his plans to retire. The Black Mamba, as he called himself, played his final game [on] April 13, 2016. He did not go quietly. He made a jaw-dropping 60 points on 50 shots in a Lakers win against the Utah Jazz that sent the Los Angeles Staples Center into a frenzy. BASKETBALL FANS Kobe. Kobe. Kobe. Kobe. KOBE BRYANT, FORMER NBA PLAYER The coolest thing is that my kids actually saw me play like I used to play. You know what I mean? It was like, “Whoa, Dad!” I said, “Yeah, I used to do this pretty often.” They’re like, “Really?” Like, “Dude, YouTube it.” MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT His answer that night would tip his hand of the accomplishment for which perhaps he was most proud—being the father of four daughters: 17-year-old Natalia, 13-year-old Gianna, three-year-old Bianka and seven-month-old Capri. Bryant himself said after retirement, he didn’t watch too much basketball, but his daughter Gianna’s love of the game sparked his interest in coaching. KOBE BRYANT, FORMER NBA PLAYER Coaching the kids is fun. It just kind of came out of nowhere because my daughter just decided she wanted to play about two and a half years ago, you know, and, so, [I] started coaching her a little bit, and then she made the … a local all-star team. We really just kinda sit back and let them process things and figure things out ’cause we are playing for the long game of them being the best basketball players they can be, but it’s fun to sit there and watch them hoop. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT Father and daughter were on their way to one of Gianna’s games when tragedy struck. Bryant was not just an award-winner on the court. KOBE BRYANT, NARRATOR, “DEAR BASKETBALL” Five … four … three … two … one.

KOBE BRYANT, NARRATOR, “DEAR BASKETBALL” Love you always, Kobe. MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN CORRESPONDENT Martin Savidge, CNN. 不知名男性NBA球評 柯比拿到湖人隊最後的…… CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 在籃球界,身高六呎六吋的柯比.布萊恩不算特別高,不過從各個角度來看,作為一名球員和一個人,他都是位巨人。 柯比.比恩.布萊恩生於一九七八年八月二十三日,是前NBA球員喬.布萊恩之子。他三歲開始打籃球,不過讓他贏得全國認可的是他在費城郊區的勞爾梅理恩高中亮眼的高中生涯。他很快就被選進了NBA,在當時他是聯盟史上最年輕的球員。 不知名男性 他比賽時,沒有人會講他有任何不足或弱點。 前洛杉磯湖人隊總經理 傑瑞.衛斯特→ 這個年輕人前途無量。我認為他肯定會大放異彩。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 夏洛特黃蜂隊在第十三順位選了布萊恩,並立刻把他交易到洛杉磯湖人隊。 前NBA球員 柯比.布萊恩 我想很多人……即使在我剛踏出高中時,我想人們有點,一開始有點刻意無視我,因為很不幸地,我覺得有些人希望我失敗,因為我克服了萬難。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 布萊恩不只克服了萬難…… 不知名男性NBA司儀 柯比.布萊恩。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 ……他在湖人隊二十年的職業生涯中,他粉碎了障礙。他驚人的天賦和強悍的競爭本色讓他成為運動界最知名、成績斐然的運動員之一。他贏得五座NBA冠軍,使他搏得超級巨星的地位和一整個世代的球迷。 籃球迷 柯比。柯比。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 他也贏過兩次NBA總決賽最有價值球員獎,並在二○○八年拿下例行賽最有價值球員。同年,他以美國隊成員的身分贏得首面奧運金牌。以下是他談到對奧運激情的感受。 前NBA球員 柯比.布萊恩 我覺得很興奮。這是很棒的機會,我想對我們來說,第一場比賽對上地主隊是有點辛苦,不過我們明白這座城市的熱情,我們自信滿滿,而且就是……我們真的等不及要開打了。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 布萊恩在二○一二年再度贏得奧運金牌。他也十八度入選NBA全明星隊。 二○○六年一月二十二日——這是NBA最令人難忘的比賽之一,布萊恩是這場比賽的焦點,他為湖人隊拿下八十一分,擊敗多倫多隊。 不過也起過爭議。 二○○三年,他被控性侵,遭指控攻擊一名十九歲的旅館員工。這項指控後來被撤銷;該案件在民事法庭和解。 在困境中重生成為柯比的另一個標誌。布萊恩不願承認自己受傷,即便事實如此──為人所知的是他在跟腱斷裂後還投了罰球。最終證明,時間是他最大的對手。 二○一五年秋天,他宣布了退休計畫。黑曼巴──這是他給自己的稱號──在二○一六年四月十三日打了自己最後一場的比賽。他可不是悄然離去。在這場湖人隊擊敗猶他爵士隊的比賽中,他以令人瞠目結舌的五十次投籃、獨得六十分的成績讓洛杉磯史坦波中心陷入瘋狂。 籃球迷 柯比。柯比。柯比。柯比。 前NBA球員 柯比.布萊恩 最酷的是我的孩子其實有看到我像以前打球那樣打球。你懂我的意思嗎?他們說:「哇,老爸!」我說:「對啊,我以前還蠻常這樣打的。」他們會說:「真的嗎?」我就說:「小傢伙,去YouTube上看看啊。」 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 他當晚的回答透漏了也許是他最驕傲的成就——作為四個女兒的父親:十七歲的納塔莉雅、十三歲的吉安娜、三歲的碧安卡和七個月大的卡普里。 布萊恩自己說退休後他不太看籃球賽,不過他女兒吉安娜對籃球的熱愛激起了他當教練的興趣。 前NBA球員 柯比.布萊恩 指導孩子很好玩。這有點像是意外的插曲,因為我女兒在大約兩年半前才決定她想打球,所以我開始教她一點點,然後她進了地方上的全明星隊。 我們真的只是輕鬆看待,讓他們去處理,把事情搞懂,因為我們要打的是一場長久的比賽,要讓他們盡其所能成為最好的籃球員,不過坐在那邊看他們投籃是挺好玩的。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 悲劇發生時,這對父女是在前往吉安娜一場比賽的路上。 布萊恩不只在球場上得獎。 《親愛的籃球》旁白 柯比.布萊恩 五……四……三……二……一。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 二○一八年他以自製短片《致親愛的籃球》贏得一座奧斯卡金像獎,這部片是以他退休時寫的一首詩為藍本。 《親愛的籃球》旁白 柯比.布萊恩 永遠愛你的,柯比。 CNN特派員 馬汀.塞維吉 本台記者馬汀.塞維吉的報導。 政治 A Presidential Trial 一張圖搞懂川普彈劾案 Looking Back at the Events That Led to Donald Trump’s Impeachment 美國眾議院通過表決,以濫權和妨礙國會調查兩項罪名彈劾總統川普,使他成為美國歷史上第三位遭彈劾的總統。CNN簡要回溯此事件的前因後果。 體育 Kobe’s Giant Legacy 永遠的小飛俠──懷念柯比.布萊恩 Remembering One of Basketball’s All-Time Greats NBA傳奇球星柯比.布萊恩1月26日因直升機意外逝世,震驚全球,各界名人和球迷紛紛表達哀悼及不捨。本文回顧他職涯中的重要里程碑。 科技 The Bro-Bot 人工智慧未來進行式──多功能社交機器人 The Use of 5G Technology in Powering Social Robots 5G世代來臨,各種應用也如雨後春筍般興起。瑞典一家公司推出一款社交機器人,利用超高網速,讓人工智慧能夠更即時、準確地做出反饋,與人類互動。 科技 Food Mission 火星任務的關鍵──太空人吃什麼?
