| American Woman Follows God to Africa 凱蒂媽咪：愛無止境，永不保留 英倫翻譯 圖文摘自http://www.appledaily.com.tw/ In late 2006, Katie Davis made a trip that would change her life. As an 18-year-old, Davis decided to travel to Uganda. The next year, the young American woman returned to the East African country. The second time, she was more than just a tourist because she taught kindergarten at an orphanage. During that time, Davis became very aware of the incredible poverty in the country. Davis learned that many families could not afford to send their kids to school in Uganda because they did not have the money for the tuition fees. A deeply religious person, Davis felt that God wanted her to help the Ugandan children. As a result , she chose to begin a program that encourages people all over the world to give money to help the African children. Her program now provides education and three hot meals a day for more than 600 children. Davis has also adopted 13 girls and written a popular book, Kisses from Katie, about her experience. 凱蒂•戴維斯在 2006 年末去了一趟旅行因而改變她的人生。十八歲時，凱蒂決定要到烏干達旅行。隔年，這位年輕的美國女子返回東非。第二次來訪時，凱蒂不只是一名觀光客，因為她在孤兒院中教幼稚園兒童。在那段期間，凱蒂非常瞭解這個國家令人難以相信的貧窮狀況。 凱蒂知道許多烏干達的家庭負擔不起送小孩上學，因為他們沒有錢支付學費。凱蒂信仰非常虔誠，她覺得上帝希望她能幫助烏干達的小孩。因此，她選擇開展一個計劃來鼓勵全球人士捐錢幫助非洲兒童。現在，她的這項計劃提供六百多名兒童受教育和一天熱騰騰的三餐。凱蒂也領養了十三位女孩並寫了一本有關她人生經歷的暢銷書 ──《凱蒂之愛》。 |

Istanbul in an Instant 浪漫綺麗異國風 漫遊伊斯坦堡
| Istanbul in an Instant 浪漫綺麗異國風 漫遊伊斯坦堡 英倫翻譯 圖文摘自http://www.appledaily.com.tw/ Turkey is a country that has seen many empires come and go. The influences of these past empires can be seen from the varied architecture of Istanbul. Speaking of this, look no further than the Hagia Sofia. Once a church, then a mosque, it is now a museum. Completed in the year 537, its towers and huge dome make it one of the finest examples of Byzantine architecture anywhere in the world. For a taste of Istanbul as a great center of trade, head to the Grand Bazaar. This is one of the oldest and largest covered markets. No visit to Istanbul would be complete without seeing the Bosphorus River. Take a boat trip, or enjoy some famous Turkish seafood in one of the many restaurants on the riverbank. Don’t forget to try the kabab, a delicious Turkish street food. All this and more awaits in this city of treasure. 土耳其是一個見證許多帝國盛衰興亡的國家。昔日這些帝國的影響力可由伊斯坦堡各式各樣的建築看出。說到這點，只要看看聖索菲亞大教堂就行。聖索菲亞大教堂曾是座教堂，然後轉成清真寺，而今是座博物館。在西元 537 年完工，它的尖塔和巨大的圓頂使它成為世上最傑出的拜占庭式建築典範之一。 想體驗一下做為重要貿易中心的伊斯坦堡，就去大市集逛逛吧。這是最古老、最大的有遮蓋的市場之一。到伊斯坦堡旅行一定也要看一看他們的博斯普魯斯河。坐船遊河或是在河岸邊的眾多餐廳之一大啖一些有名的土耳其海鮮。別忘了嚐嚐烤羊肉串，這是一種美味的土耳其街頭小吃。不僅僅是這些，這座瑰寶之城還有更多更精采的事物等著你去探索呢。 |

Cirque du Soleil：A Circus Like No Other 獨一無二的視覺饗宴－太陽劇團
| Cirque du Soleil：A Circus Like No Other 獨一無二的視覺饗宴－太陽劇團 英倫翻譯 圖文摘自http://www.appledaily.com.tw/ Cirque du Soleil, which in English means Circus of the Sun, is a show unlike any other. While most circuses feature animals, there are none to be found in Cirque du Soleil. The Cirque also does not have a ring in which the acts take place. Instead, these highly creative shows present acrobats performing fantastic stunts along with powerful,dramatic music. There are numerous Cirque du Soleil shows based on various themes. One show, named Love, is built around the music of The Beatles, for example. Another Cirque show features Michael Jackson's hits as well as his looks from different stages of his career. Cirque du Soleil 在英文裡的意思為太陽的馬戲表演，是一種與眾不同的表演。雖然大部分的馬戲表演都是以動物為主要特色，但是在太陽劇團裡連一隻動物都看不到。這個劇團也沒有表演節目的環狀場地。這些極具創意的表演呈現給觀眾的反而是雜技演員伴隨強而有力且戲劇效果十足的音樂來表演驚人的特技。太陽劇團有許多表演是以各種不同的主題為依據的。比如說，一場名為「愛」的表演就是以披頭四的音樂為基礎打造的。另外一場太陽劇團的表演是以麥可•傑克森的暢銷歌曲以及他生涯不同階段的造型為主要特色。 |
