nvvopn 專題報導 A Costly Network 5G 世代來臨 引領物聯網革命 America Prepares to Introduce 5G Countrywide in 2020 隨著5G無線通訊技術漸漸邁向商用,相關的應用範疇也愈加廣泛,如自駕汽車、智慧城市、物聯網住宅,加速驅動第四次工業革命。 專題報導 Huawei’s Counterstrike 中美貿易戰升溫 華為對美的逆襲 CEO of the Chinese Tech Giant Speaks on Cybersecurity Concerns 5G技術掀起全球競賽,也挑起美國與5G重要推手華為之間的大戰。川普政府以華為產品有安全疑慮為由發起抵制,華為執行長任正非則在接受CNN訪談時公開反擊。 社會 The Ever-Changing City 紐約濱水區——不斷蛻變重生的都市綠洲 How New York City Expanded Using Landfill and Garbage 紐約市許多舊時的工業區及軍事用地經都市更新及填海造地後,變身為綠意盎然的河濱公園,讓紐約客隨時能遠離喧囂,享受片刻悠閒。 旅遊 The Edge of Imagination 原力與你同在!全球首座星際大戰主題樂園揭幕! Disney Brings Star Wars to Life with New Themed Land Galaxy’s Edge 美國加州迪士尼樂園的星際大戰:銀河邊緣主題園區盛大開幕,遊客將能走進星際大戰的世界,寫出屬於自己的星戰故事。 文化 The City under God 跟隨耶穌腳步 踏上耶路撒冷聖經考古巡禮 Following the Footsteps of Jesus in Jerusalem 千百年來,無數虔誠的基督教徒循耶穌的腳步來到耶路撒冷,在朝聖過程中見證此地所承載的文化與歷史。 社會 The Price of Inequality 難以跨越的男女薪資鴻溝 What Difference Does the Gender Wage Gap Make? 提倡職場兩性平權的聲浪越來越不容忽視,但就實際數據來看,男女同工不同酬的情況仍十分常見。本文回顧美國數十年來在公平薪酬方面的變化,以及為何男女薪資還是有著難以跨越的鴻溝。 保健 Pills in the Cloud 藥物配方雲端化 客製化3D列印藥品打破時空藩籬 Making Medicine More Accessible with 3D Printing 英國格拉斯哥大學團隊研發雲端藥品資料庫,概念是讓有需要的人隨時隨地訂製所需的藥品——只需從雲端下載藥物成分,再透過3D列印技術輸出,即可取得。 環境 Clear the Air 氣候變遷的迷思與真相 Investigating the Facts and Myths about Climate Change 關於氣候變遷,各界眾說紛紜。本則報導要來破解幾個常見的氣候變遷迷思,並用實際數據,提醒大家必須面對這些「不願面對的真相」。 體育 The Duke Skywalker NBA 超級新秀——錫安.威廉森 The Height and Hype around US Collegiate Basketball Star Zion Williamson 在美國籃壇刮起一陣旋風的杜克大學球員錫安.威廉森宣布投入美國職籃選秀,讓新一季的NBA賽事未開打先轟動! 生活 May the Horse Be with You 週三賽馬夜 一探香港人百年賽馬文化 Discovering one of Hong Kong’s Most Popular Pastimes 每逢週三晚上,許多香港人必前往賽馬場報到,買張馬票試試手氣。CNN主播奎斯特跟著在地嚮導,實地體驗令人血脈賁張的香港賽馬文化。 全球瞭望 The Economic Impact of the Trade War 中美貿易戰升溫 衝擊全球市場 Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Introduce Baby Boy 哈利、梅根升格為父母 英國皇室再添新成員 Trash Found in Mariana Trench 全球最深馬里亞納海溝底驚見塑膠垃圾 CNN主播教你唸 紐約熱門景點 聽懂CNN 報導 人體疼痛機制大揭密 A Costly Network 5G 世代來臨 引領物聯網革命 America Prepares to Introduce 5G Countrywide in 2020 CARL AZUZ, “CNN 10” Motorola offers a modification that makes one of its phones 5G-compatible, and Samsung plans to release a new 5G phone this summer. How big is the network they have to run on? Well, it’s not. Verizon has 5G available in several U.S. cities, and AT&T, which owns CNN’s parent company WarnerMedia, says it’s launched 5G in more than a dozen places. Industry analysts expect 5G to be available in 92 American cities by the end of the year. And as far as 5G readiness goes, a group that represents the American wireless industry says the U.S. and China are now tied for first place, and services are also available in several South Korean cities. But why are tech enthusiasts so excited about this? Why does it matter? According to the [a] cellular technology industry association, 5G is gonna be a major factor in the U.S. economy— changing education, robotics and medicine. CNN NARRATOR Self-driving cars, smart cities, fully-connected homes [and] robots—this is the future, and it’ll be powered by 5G. The G stands for generation as in next-generation wireless network, and it’s going to be fast—about 10 times faster than the 4G network on your phone right now. Today, it takes about six minutes to download a 3D movie in [with] 4G. With 5G, it’ll be 30 seconds, but 5G is about more than just superfast downloads and fewer dropped calls. [It’s] really about connecting the internet of things—all those sensors, thermostats, cars [and] robots. Right now, 4G just doesn’t have the bandwidth for all those devices, but 5G will. That’s why it’s a game changer. Imagine self-driving cars instantly communicating with traffic lights and other cars, or a surgeon with VR equipment and special gloves operating remotely on a patient thousands of miles away. 5G will make that possible, but when? 2020 is a working date for most of the wireless industry. Four nationwide carriers are already testing the technology. Chipmakers are building processors and radios for 5G communication, and network equipment companies are building the backbone. But the future won’t come cheap. 5G signals are powerful, but they don’t reach as far. Making it work will require thousands, maybe even millions, of mini cell phone towers, pretty much everywhere you can imagine: lampposts, the side of every building, maybe even in every room of your home. That’s why rolling out 5G to the entire United States could cost $300 billion. 《CNN十分鐘新聞》 卡爾.阿祖茲 摩托羅拉提供了一項修改,讓該公司的其中一款手機具有5G相容性,而三星也計畫在今年夏季推出一款新的5G手機。這些手機必須使用的網路涵蓋範圍有多大呢?這個嘛,不怎麼大。Verizon在美國幾座城市推出了5G網路,而擁有CNN母公司華納媒體的AT&T表示,他們已在超過十二個地方啟用5G了。 產業分析師預期在今年年底前,5G就會在美國九十二座城市上線。就5G的就緒程度而言,一個代表美國無線通訊產業的團體指出,美國與中國目前並列第一,南韓有幾座城市也已有5G服務。 不過,為什麼科技狂人對這件事這麼興奮呢?這件事為什麼重要?根據一個行動通訊技術產業協會的說法,5G將會是美國經濟中一項重要的因子──為教育、機器人技術與醫學帶來改變。 CNN旁白 自動駕駛汽車、智慧城市、全面連線的住宅以及機器人──這就是未來,而這都將由5G驅動。G指的是次世代無線網路中的「世代」,而且5G的速度將會非常快──比你的手機目前使用的4G網路快上約十倍。 現今用4G網路下載一部3D電影需要六分鐘左右的時間。有了5G,將會是三十秒,不過5G的重點不只在於超快的下載速度與減少電話斷訊。5G真正的重點在於連接物聯網──那所有的感應器、恆溫器、汽車以及機器人。目前的4G頻寬不夠供那所有裝置使用,但5G會夠。那就是為什麼這是一項改變遊戲規則的技術。 想像自動駕駛車輛能即時與交通號誌和其他車輛溝通,或是外科醫師利用虛擬實境設備及特殊手套對人在數千英里以外的病患進行遠距手術。5G將可使那得以實現,但什麼時候呢? 二○二○年是多數無線通訊業者暫定的時間。四家全國性的電信業者已在測試這項科技。晶片製造商正在打造用於5G通訊的處理器與無線電設備,而網路設備公司則是在建設骨幹。 不過,這個未來可不便宜。5G訊號很強,但傳播距離沒那麼遠。要讓5G運作將會需要數以千計,或許甚至數以百萬計的迷你手機基地台,幾乎遍布於你想像得到的所有地方:路燈、每一棟建築的側牆,甚至可能是你家裡的每個房間。這就是為什麼在全美推出5G的成本可能要三千億美元。

Click, Buy, Delivered 疫期宅在家 電商業績翻紅 South Korea Sees a Surge in Demand for E-Commerce RICHARD QUEST, CNN ANCHOR The issue of e-commerce and the preparation of the economy—yeah, there is one economy that was well-prepared for all of that. It is South Korea. CNN’s Paula Hancocks reports from Seoul. PAULA HANCOCKS, CNN CORRESPONDENT Staying at home means shopping from home—something South Koreans have done for years. There was no panic buying, no empty shelves. People here know they can get what they need online delivered within hours, or at least the next day. Coupang is the largest e-commerce platform in Korea. It saw its next-day delivery orders jump from just over two million to 3.3 million a day when the coronavirus hit. BOM KIM, CEO, COUPANG We saw a surge of demand across all categories. Of course, you would imagine fresh products—milk, eggs, basic necessities—surge more in the short term, [and also] equipment to work from home, educational toys for their … for the children. PAULA HANCOCKS, CNN CORRESPONDENT South Korea has plenty of options to choose from when it comes to e-commerce. A recent study says last year alone, 2.7 billion parcels were delivered—maybe not that surprising for a country where nine out of 10 people own a smartphone. BOM KIM, CEO, COUPANG Yeah, the mobile and internet infrastructure that existed and the ease with which customers were able to access technology. By the way, it’s not just e-commerce—when you think about educational, you know, classes online, or just consuming media and other services online. PAULA HANCOCKS, CNN CORRESPONDENT In some ways, South Korea has been setting itself up for social distancing for years. This is how a lot of people shop here—myself included. And for the customer, at least, it means that from start to finish, there is zero contact with another human being. Deliverymen and women are being praised for being on the front line, allowing people to stay home and social distance. Coupang says even before the virus, it was delivering 1,200 products to customers every minute. Deliverymen leaving [leave] a package outside a front door, [take] a photo and [send] a text to let you know it’s arrived—a faceless hero of the crisis. Do you feel like a hero? UNIDENTIFIED MALE DELIVERYMAN, COUPANG Yes. PAULA HANCOCKS, CNN CORRESPONDENT Yes. It’s hard to know if this increased demand will stay once the crisis subsides, but it is clear the e-commerce industry made social distancing in South Korea a lot easier. Paula Hancocks, CNN, Hwaseong, South Korea. CNN主播 理查.奎斯特 電子商務的議題和在經濟上所做的準備──沒錯,有一個經濟體對那一切無一不備。就是韓國。本台記者寶拉.漢考克斯來自首爾的報導。 CNN特派員 寶拉.漢考克斯 待在家裡就表示要從家裡買東西──韓國人這麼做已經很久了。沒有搶購,沒有被掃空的貨架。這裡的人知道他們能在網路上取得自己需要的東西,在幾個小時內送達,或至少隔天會到。 Coupang是韓國最大的電商平台。新冠病毒來襲時,該公司發現隔日到貨的訂單從一天兩百萬出頭躍增到三百三十萬筆。 Coupang執行長 金範錫 我們在所有類別都看到了需求爆增。當然,你可以想像到生鮮產品──牛奶、蛋、基本必需品──在短期內增加較多,還有在家工作的設備、給他們的……給小孩用的益智玩具也是。 CNN特派員 寶拉.漢考克斯 在電子商務方面,韓國有相當多選項可選。日前一項研究顯示,光是去年就送出了二十七億個包裹──對於一個每十個人裡有九人擁有智慧型手機的國家而言,也許並不那麼令人意外。 Coupang執行長 金範錫 是啊,現有的行動裝置和網路基礎建設,而且藉此顧客可以輕易地運用科技。順道一提,不只是電子商務──要是想想線上教育課程,或者就只是上網觀看媒體或使用其他服務。 CNN特派員 寶拉.漢考克斯 在某些方面來看,韓國多年來都在讓自己準備好保持社交距離。這是這裡很多人購物的方式──我自己也是。至少對顧客來說,這表示從頭到尾跟另一個人是零接觸。 送貨員因身在前線而備受讚許,讓人們可以留在家中以及保持社交距離。 Coupang說,即使在這個病毒之前,該公司每分鐘就要遞送一千兩百件商品給顧客。送貨員把包裹留在前門、拍照,傳訊息讓你知道貨到了,可謂這場危機的無名英雄。 你覺得像英雄嗎? Coupang不知名男性送貨員 像。 CNN特派員 寶拉.漢考克斯 沒錯。 很難說一旦危機解除,這股增加的需求是否會持續下去,不過顯然電子商務產業讓在韓國保持社交距離變得容易多了。 本台記者寶拉.漢考克斯,在韓國華城的報導。 體育 Olympic Dreams on Hold 東京奧運決戰2021! The Tokyo Summer Games Have Been Pushed Back until Next Year 原訂今年7月開幕的東京奧運因全球新冠病毒疫情關係延至2021年舉辦,這是東京歷史上第二次無法如期舉辦奧運,重創國內的經濟與士氣。 體育 Batting a Thousand 台灣紅不讓!中華職棒成國際體壇焦點 Taiwan’s Baseball Season Kicks Off—with a New Global Fan Base 在全球職業運動賽事停擺之際,台灣的中華職棒率先開打,更提供線上免費串流直播,讓沒有球賽可看的各國棒球迷一解看球癮。 商業 Click, Buy, Delivered 疫期宅在家 電商業績翻紅 South Korea Sees a Surge in Demand for E-Commerce 受到封城令、居家隔離令的影響,電商服務逆勢翻紅。來看看電商產業本就蓬勃的韓國採取了哪些因應措施。 保健 Mask Security 口罩百百款 哪種罩得住? How Covering Your Face Helps Prevent the Spread of Germs 口罩百百種,從棉布口罩到醫療級的N95口罩都有,但就日常防疫而言,哪種等級的口罩才夠用呢? 商業 Passing the Pod 不只聽音樂──Spotify 跨足播客市場 Looking at Spotify’s Expansion from Just Music 音樂串流平台Spotify將觸角拓展到播客市場,兩年來闖出亮眼成績。該公司的終極目標是成為全球最大的音訊網。 社會 A Message of Kindness 小布希發表線上演說 呼籲發揮善的力量 Former President George W. Bush Gives a Rousing Speech 美國新冠病毒疫情面臨嚴峻考驗,前總統小布希特地發表線上演說,呼籲人民團結一心,發揮服務和犧牲的精神,共同挺過難關。 環境 Nature Unlocked 封城下的生態奇景:動物復育、群聚、逛大街 As Human Activities Halt, Animals Are Reclaiming the Streets 新冠病毒疫情對人類而言是場浩劫,但對生存空間長期被人類破壞、佔據的野生動物來說,卻是難得的復甦機會。 文化 The Storytelling Dance 傳頌故事的優雅之舞:夏威夷呼拉舞 Learning the Moves, Importance and History of Hula 呼拉舞不等於草裙和椰子殼胸罩,而是一種情感豐沛、充滿力量,傳頌夏威夷傳統故事的優雅舞蹈。 旅遊 Airborne Social Distancing 後疫情時代 回不去的搭機體驗 How the Pandemic Will Change the Airline Industry 新冠疫情迫使人們保持社交距離,而這與現有空中運輸的設計理念恰恰背道而馳。隨著日常生活漸漸回歸正軌,航空公司也勢必要做出相應的調整。 時尚 Exclusive & Extravagant 高級訂製時裝的奢華神秘世界 Inside the Secretive World of Haute Couture 要扛起高級訂製服的招牌,須符合嚴苛的條件,也難怪許多人把高級訂製服視為一門工藝價值極高的藝術。 焦點話題 CNN 全球瞭望 Clash of the Tech Titans 科技巨擘的防疫口水戰 The Pentagon Officially Releases UFO Footage 美國國防部正式公布幽浮影片 Formula E Turns to Esports 電動方程式發起電競賽事 新聞片語通 CNN主編教你唸 知名棒球員 單字聯想地圖 棒球英文 看紐約州長記者會學英文 全方位搞懂CNN The Stay-At-Home Museums 線上博物館,全天候開放中! 談天說地話英文

Book Description
Collectively, mankind has never had it so good despite periodic economic crises of which the current sub-prime crisis is merely the latest example. Much of this success is attributable to the increasing efficiency of the world's financial institutions as finance has proved to be one of the most important causal factors in economic performance. In a series of insightful essays, financial and economic historians examine how financial innovations from the seventeenth century to the present have continually challenged established institutional arrangements, forcing change and adaptation by governments, financial intermediaries, and financial markets. Where these have been successful, wealth creation and growth have followed. When they failed, growth slowed and sometimes economic decline has followed. These essays illustrate the difficulties of co-ordinating financial innovations in order to sustain their benefits for the wider economy, a theme that will be of interest to policy makers as well as economic historians.

Book Description
"This report documents violence and discrimination against LGBT people in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras--collectively known as the Northern Triangle of Central America--and, in some cases, along the migration routes they take to seek asylum.... Given the high levels of violence and discrimination that many LGBT people face in the Northern Triangle, the US government should be rigorously protecting LGBT asylum seekers' ability to safely cross the border into the United States and apply for asylum. Instead, the Trump administration has implemented a seemingly unending series of obstacles, blocking LGBT people's path to safety at every turn."--Pages 2-3.

Book Description
This volume is a comprehensive study of the challenges and opportunities facing the BIMSTEC, The Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation. BIMSTEC was established to promote economic cooperation among rising economic powers in South and Southeast Asia, but after years of stagnation the need for renewed regional commitment is starker than ever. The book studies the BIMSTEC’s present status and highlights the ways in which the organisation can be rejuvenated to forge a stronger Bay of Bengal community. It looks at key themes such as the challenges to regional integration, India’s "Look East" and Thailand’s "Look West" policies, transport connectivity and tourism within the BIMSTEC and the aspirations of various member countries. It also examines BIMSTEC’s approach towards climate change, disaster management and rehabilitation. A timely contribution, this volume will be useful for scholars and researchers of international relations, South Asian studies, foreign policy, diplomacy, Southeast Asian studies, defence and strategic affairs, maritime studies, international trade, regional cooperation and political studies.

Book Description
After three and a half decades of economic reforms, radical changes have occurred in all aspects of life in China. In an authoritarian society, these changes are mediated significantly through the power of language, carefully controlled by the political elites. Discourse, as a way of speaking and doing things, has become an indispensable instrument for the authority to manage a fluid, increasingly fragmented, but highly dynamic and yet fragile society. Written by an international team of leading scholars, this volume examines socio-political transformations of contemporary Chinese society through a systematic account, analysis and assessment of its salient discourses and their production, circulation, negotiation, and consequences. In particular, the volume focuses on the interplay of politics and media. The book’s intended readership is academics and students of Chinese studies, language and discourse, and media and communication studies.
