突然今天看到很多人在討論這套書的翻譯問題，我才疏學淺沒讀什麼書，所以並不清楚這套書的地位在哪，但是有點訝異 #大家（讀者）對於用簡體譯稿反應這麼激烈。從文章來看，也並非是直接簡轉繁，還是有經過 #大家出版社 工程浩大的修訂。
這種直接用簡轉繁的狀況在童書界很常見阿，畢竟我們童書譯者會的語言相當受限，以前都集中在英日，這幾年擴展至法韓，但其他的語系依舊不多，不然就是從英文版或日文版轉譯。
我之前瀏覽到一套俄文翻譯的童書，簡介上面直接寫「中文世界最佳譯本」，第一個想法是 how dare you～～～擺明不把簡中翻譯放在眼裡，但下一秒就想到，該不會根本就是簡轉繁，仔細一看，果然是中國譯者。更不用說還有「參考」簡中譯本，翻譯直接掛編輯部的。
#大家_指火星童書地圖粉絲的各位 怎麼看
[時事英文] 言論自由與冠狀病毒
在自由的社會中，每位公民都能依照個人的自由意志來行使權利。言論自由讓每位公民都能監督政府，要求政府改變不公不義的法規與政策。
In a free society, all citizens must be able to pursue their own paths, set their own goals, and think for themselves. The freedom of speech safeguards these rights as it enables us to challenge and change government regulations and laws we find oppressive and unjust.
歷史表明，在缺乏監督機制的情況下，政府的絕對權力將導致絕對的腐化。即便有些言論不合我們的心意，但禁止人們發聲不僅限制了言論自由，也剝奪了人們聽取他人意見的權利。禁止言論，並不能禁絕思想。唯有透過對話與協商，才能達成共識，而使社會進步。
History has shown that without the corrective mechanism of free speech, governments would consolidate their powers without regard for the rights and freedom of those whom they ought to serve. To deny people of free speech is a double wrong, because doing so would also deprive people of the right to listen, even though some speech would undoubtedly make us feel uncomfortable. Banning certain speech would not result in the elimination of ideas. It is through engagement and negotiation that we can reach consensus and progress as a society.
每個人都應享有批評政府的權利，而無需擔心遭受迫害。這也是當今公民得以贏得諸多權利的原因。言論自由是值得全體人類努力爭取的基本人權。
All people ought to have the right to criticize their government without fear of persecution, because it is how we have won the rights we have today. The freedom of speech is a fundamental human right and it’s worth fighting to protect.

《紐約時報》報導：
Trevor Noah, the host of “The Daily Show,” has won praise on the Chinese internet for his searing criticism of the Trump administration’s mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic. So has Jerry Kowal, an American who makes Chinese-language videos chronicling the dire situation in New York.
1. win praise 贏得讚賞
2. searing criticism 猛烈抨擊
3. mishandle (v.) 對⋯⋯處理不當
4. chronicle 記錄
5. a dire situation 可怕的情況
因為猛烈抨擊川普政府對新冠病毒疫情的應對不當，《每日秀》主持人特雷弗・諾亞（編按：中國網民給他取了一個暱稱叫崔娃）在中國的網路上備受讚賞。受到追捧的還有郭傑瑞，作為美國人，他製作的中文影片記錄了紐約的可怕情形。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
China’s response to the virus has its own sharp-eyed critics at home, and they have found a vastly different reception. One resident of the virus-struck city of Wuhan who writes under the name Fang Fang documented despair, misery and everyday life in an online diary, and has endured withering attacks on social media. Three citizen journalists who posted videos from Wuhan in the first weeks of the outbreak disappeared and are widely believed to be in government custody.
6. response to 回應
7. sharp-eyed 眼尖的；目光敏銳的
8. a vastly different reception 截然不同的對待
9. virus-struck 病毒侵襲
10. document (v.) 記錄
11. endure attacks 忍受攻擊
12. withering 令人難堪的；嚴厲的
13. be in government custody 被政府監禁（或拘留）
中國對疫情的應對在國內也引發了尖銳的批評，但這些批評者卻遭到了截然不同的對待。在病毒肆虐的武漢，一位筆名方方的居民用網路日記記錄了人們的絕望、痛苦和日常生活，結果她在社群媒體上遭到了猛烈的攻擊。在疫情暴發的前幾週，三位在武漢發布影片的公民記者失蹤了，人們普遍認為政府把他們抓走了。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
The pandemic unfolded dramatically differently in China from the way it has in the rest of the world — at least, if one believes state-run Chinese media. Chinese news outlets used words like “purgatory” and “apocalypse” to describe the tragic hospital scenes in Italy and Spain. They have run photos of British and American medical workers wearing garbage bags as protective gear. A lot of the same miseries happened in China, but those reports were called “rumors” and censored.
14. pandemic 全球性流行病
15. unfold 展開；顯露
16. state-run 國營；國有
17. news outlet 新聞出處
18. purgatory 煉獄
19. apocalypse 末日（天啟）
在中國，這場大流行的展現方式與世界其他地方截然不同——至少，如果你相信中國官方媒體的話。中國的新聞媒體用「煉獄」和「末日」這樣的詞來描述義大利和西班牙醫院裡的悲慘情形。它們還登載了英國和美國的醫務人員把垃圾袋當防護服的照片。中國也有很多類似的悲劇，但那些報導被稱為「謠言」而遭到刪除。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
The death of Li Wenliang, the whistle-blowing doctor in Wuhan, on Feb. 6 galvanized many Chinese people into demanding freedom of speech. Online sentiment became much more skeptical, and many young people openly challenged the party’s message.
20. a whistleblower 吹哨者
21. galvanize somebody into… 激起；使震驚
22. freedom of speech 言論自由
23. online sentiment 網路輿情
24. skeptical 存疑的；持懷疑態度的
25. openly challenge 公開挑戰（或質疑）
２月６日，武漢吹哨醫生李文亮的去世激起了許多中國人對言論自由的要求。網路上的懷疑情緒更多，許多年輕人公開質疑黨的訊息。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Then the United States and other countries bungled their own responses, and China’s propaganda machine saw an opportunity. Using the West’s transparency and free flow of information, state media outlets chronicled how badly others have managed the crisis. Their message: Those countries should copy China’s model. For good measure, the propaganda machine revved up its attacks on anybody who dared to question the government’s handling of the pandemic. For many people in China, the push is working. Wielding a mix of lies and partial truths, some young people are waging online attacks against individuals and countries that contradict their belief in China’s superior response.
26. bungle 弄糟；（笨手笨腳地）把……搞砸
27. propaganda machine 宣傳機器
28. see an opportunity 看見機會
29. manage a crisis
30. transparency 透明度
31. free flow of information 資訊的自由流動
32. chronicle (v.) 記錄
33. rev up sb/sth（使）活躍；（使）積極
34. dare to question 敢於質疑
後來，當美國和其它國家搞砸了各自的疫情應對時，中國的宣傳機器看到了機會。中國官媒利用西方媒體的透明度和資訊的自由流動，記錄了其它國家在應對危機時的糟糕表現。他們的訊息是：這些國家應該效仿中國模式。此外，宣傳機器還加大力度，攻擊那些敢質疑中國政府處理疫情方式的人。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
Many of the same people praising Mr. Noah have been slinging arrows and rocks at Fang Fang, whose real name is Wang Fang, for telling the truth about China. Her diary was moderate and personal, and a place where many of us turned for comfort during the darkest hours of China’s epidemic. But after Harper Collins announced plans to publish it in English, tens of thousands of online users descended on her Weibo account, saying she was a traitor for supporting the enemy’s narrative.
35. sling arrows and rocks 口誅筆伐
36. tell the truth about 說了關於⋯⋯的實話
37. moderate 溫和的
38. turn to comfort 尋求慰藉
39. the darkest hours 最黑暗的時刻
40. descend on 突襲；向⋯⋯湧來
41. a traitor 叛徒；賣國賊
在這些讚美諾亞的人中，有很多卻對真名為汪芳的方方口誅筆伐，就因為她說了關於中國的實話。她的日記是溫和而私人的，在中國疫情蔓延最黑暗的時刻，我們中的許多人都在這裡尋求安慰。但在哈珀柯林斯出版社宣布計劃出版該日記的英文版後，成千上萬的網民攻擊了方方的微博帳號，說她在支持敵人的敘事，是個賣國賊。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
The online backlash has been so severe, Fang Fang wrote on Weibo, that it reminds her of the Cultural Revolution, the decade of political violence and chaos that she saw as a child. The only comfort, she wrote, is that “this type of Cultural Revolution is only conducted in cyberspace.”
42. online backlash 網路上的強烈反對
43. the Cultural Revolution 文化大革命
44. remind sb of sth 使⋯⋯想起⋯⋯
45. political violence and chaos 政治暴力與混亂
方方在微博上寫道，這種網路叫罵是如此嚴重，令她回想起兒時目睹文化大革命的政治暴力和混亂的十年。唯一的寬慰是「這種文革只在網路空間進行著」，她寫道。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
May everyone in the world have the freedom to criticize their governments without fear. May we, no matter what our opinions are, speak out to safeguard human rights.
願世人都能享有言論自由，批評政府時無須擔驚受怕。即便意見相左，都能為捍衛人權而奮鬥。

＃疫情英文
📍防疫第四招：寫一封英文信
Dear Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus,
Have you ever visited Taiwan? It is a small island right next to China that has an area of 35,808 square kilometers with 23.6 million inhabitants. YES. We have our own constitution, our own government and our democratically elected leaders. We are a sovereign state.
And YES. Taiwan is a developed country. Although Taiwan has been excluded and blocked or barred from many international organizations and communities due to China’s interference and suppression, Taiwan still managed to have the best healthcare system and advanced medical technologies among the best in the world.
Do you still remember? In the end of 2019, it was Taiwan that warned WHO and China about possible human-to-human transmission of the new coronavirus, but Chinese authorities silenced doctors and refused to admit. Then what have you done?
You did not make it public! You tolerated China’s lack of transparency and decided to be their accomplice in making the coronavirus pandemic a global catastrophe.
You deliberately put people’s health at risk, and now the whole world suffers from China’s initial denials, continuous cover-ups and your inability. Unfortunately, COVID-19 had 91,595 deaths by today. How much more to come?
_
No one judges you because of your race or skin color, nor hairstyle nor gender, but your dereliction of duty! And, hey, those judgments and complaints actually come from not only Asia, not just Europe, but all over the world!
You have always treated Taiwan’s absence in WHO with indifference. Like a wicked ally of China. And when this whole coronavirus gone wild, you continued to refuse all the kind warnings and messages from Taiwan. We’re always here, and we’re willing to help.
How dare you accuse Taiwan of these unfounded allegations when you’ve always been the person with power who keeps discriminating and trampling Taiwan and Taiwanese people the whole time?
In Taiwan, we value human rights, liberty and equality. We are always described kind and friendly. Yet facing injustice, on no account must we endure. We strongly oppose your malicious smear and bullying. We demand a public apology from you to Taiwan and Taiwanese people.

彈到屎 / 動詞 介詞 名詞 /
n. 台語念比較傳神
有時候當一個人太邪惡（比如希特勒）或太可惡（比如毛澤東），我們不會有機會歧視他；我們只能無視他，然後想辦法讓自己更強大。
有點孤單，但非常堅強。
但還是難免，彈到屎。

今年兒童節在疫情下渡過，有令大家除了「身體健康」的願望，忘掉自己兒時最單純的理想及目標嗎？
訪問是於今年農曆新年前進行，當時香港仍未在疫情的陰霾之下，生活如常，小五學生Lance也依舊提早回到學校，拿着一塊寫着標語的紙皮站着。
他拿着的紙皮寫着「水位上升，動物絕種」，行動是Lance自發的，他希望透過上學前的短短時間，向同學以至家長宣揚環保資訊。Lance不諱言，自己是受瑞典環保活躍分子少女通貝里（Greta Thunberg）影響而為環保行動，「如果我哋唔改嘅話，世界就完啦，因為依家氣候變化，全世界溫度都上升咗1度，如果呢個數字去到1.5度，我哋就(面對)無法逆轉的氣候變化。」
Lance對環保的行動不限於在學校門前的一人示威，也是在自己的生活作出改變及犧牲，例如酷愛零食的他，也要為了環保忍忍口，「盡量唔食糖同薯片，因為佢哋很多包裝，嗰啲真係一次性，唔可以循環再用」，但卻因為這些生活小習慣跟過同學爭執，「有次我叫同學唔好用珍寶珠做禮物，佢哋唔話我知用咗，我就好嬲，最後老師鬧我點解要鬧人。」
除了知識，學做人的態度對一個小孩而言也不可缺少，此時父母的角色十分重要，Lance的爸爸Gabriel並沒有缺席，「唔需要好似佢講嘅例子咁，同學唔聽你講就嬲，而係盡量去感染其他人，你去影響人但唔係同人鬥，用一個比較和平嘅方法去影響人，過程累積咗戻氣對事情都無幫助。」
拍攝當日，Lance就有機會在學校化身小助教，與一班同學及家長一同製造清潔用的環保酵素，Gabriel就覺得是讓兒子學習提出解決方法的好機會，他欣賞Lance有衝勁去為環保行動，但也知道一個十歲的小朋友不可能很深入的了解整件事，因此期望兒子不斷學習、多點思考甚麼是對與錯，並繼續去為他相信的事發聲，「成人係需要先成己。」
「我唯一嘅願望就係有未來。」簡單的原因，就令Lance走上他的環保之路，他未來更想成為一位環保建築師，為他的理想出多一分力。自己小小的行動，Lance又覺得成效如何呢？「你要知道你自己有力量，無人係太小去改變，你做任何事一定有改變，無論你幾大、幾細，一樣有。」
大家又想起自己的理想沒有？疫情過後，大家有沒有事情想為自己的理想努力呢？
【I Dare U To】the leading song for this album, is also the commercial theme song for the latest range of products, Töush, inspired by the well-established electrical brand, Pensonic. The song was written especially for Natalia by renowned music producer Percy Phang inspired by the Western Pop genre that was made to suit her style and personality.
The MV is lively, visually rich and fashion forward with hints of futurism, which set designs and themes were largely inspired by the epic science fiction film, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Directed by Stanley Kubrick. This MV’s aim was to take a playful twist on how the advance Töush technology is as good as 5 strong men completing household chores, every housewife’s dream. The cast that boasts international allurement introduces five talented and stunningly good looking models including Andy Oshima (ex-national volleyball player turned model of Belgian and Japanese descent), Henrique Fukuoka (supermodel of Japanese and Brazilian descent), Mason Roberts (Australian model turned artistic painter), Benjamin Hori (supermodel of Japanese and Canadian descent), and Sampei Okuno (Japanese model and musician). The cast flew in from cities across the globe; Shanghai, Australia, Taiwan, Canada, and Japan, for the filming of this music video.
On a deeper lyrical note, Percy and Natalia wrote this song with the idea that due to Natalia’s ambitious and confident demeanor, she tends to appear intimidating. The song was to encourage future prospects to dare to step up to the plate, break down her walls and fight for her, because behind all that strong exterior, she’s really just an easy-going goofball.
【I Dare U To】 是一首由知名音乐人彭学斌根据Natalia的风格量身打造的Western Pop 风格歌曲，是本次专辑的主打歌，也是Pensonic主推的新系列产品Töush的代言歌曲。
【I Dare U To】 MV可说是充满着满满的视觉享受，时尚感及未来感，因为场景及服装设计的主要灵感就是来自电影大师Stanley Cubrick的作品《太空漫游》。MV中一共五名壮男，以展示在Töush科技下的家电就如壮男般帅气且智能地完成家务，实现每一位家庭主妇的梦想。这无名壮男分别由五名名模所扮演，其中包括Andy Oshima（前排球选手，现为模特，日本比利时混血）；Henrique Fukuoka （名模，日本巴西混血）；Mason Roberts （澳洲名模，现为艺术画家）；Benjamin Hori（日本加拿大混血名模）；Sampei Okuno（日本模特，音乐家）。他们分别从上海、澳洲、台湾、加拿大及日本到来进行本次拍摄。在这强大的演员卡司下，可是大大提升了本MV的视觉享受。
在歌词方面，可看到Natalia希望未来的对方可勇敢地踏出那一步，打动她的心房并且为她战斗，因为在一切坚强的外表下，她也拥有一颗少女心。

曲 / 制作：彭学斌 @ 口袋音乐 Percy Phang
编曲：帼航 Hanzz / 陈韦汐@口袋音乐
我不知道你的过去 是如何伤害你
我只知道你的现在 有我在陪伴你
想得太多 会变得 容易怀疑
难道你看不出 我眼神中的确定？
你不相信永远这事 到底有多可信
你不相信因为那些 不完美的结局
时间飞快 难道我那么用力
还无法动摇你
( I Dare U To ) Open Up Your Heart, Open Wide
( I Dare U To ) Say You’ll Fight For Me, Say You’ll Try
( I Dare U To ) Don’t Let Go, Don’t Let This Slip By
Break Down My Walls And Tell Me That You’ll Stay Through The Night
( I Dare U To ) 让爱再次为我澎湃
( I Dare U To ) 把你的真心掏出来
( I Dare U To ) 紧握了手就不放开
让我的等待一直在 幸福的路口徘徊

how dare you是什麼意思呢？
1，是中文說的，你敢嗎？有帶點挑釁的意思
2，還是說，你怎麼敢做這種事？真有種！你太大膽了，你好勇敢的意思
以上兩個解釋，一個是說你很膽小，一個是說你很大膽
到底是什麼意思啊？
