花博天使生活館 -- Pavilion of Angel Life

這篇新聞是從民視英文新聞錄下來的影片，對花博有興趣的話可以聽聽這個新聞，練練英文聽力。

這篇新聞算簡單的，我說的簡單是指字彙不會太深，先嘗試不看中文字幕聽聽看花博新聞！影片後面我會放上新聞稿，聽幾次之後再看看新聞稿，看看自己聽懂了多少。










新聞稿

When you visit the Flora Expo, you'll probably get tired just trying to see everything here, but that's okay, because I know a good place where you can take a break.

Located in the Xinsheng Park Area, the Pavilion of Angel Life is not like any other pavilion at the Expo because it has its own lifestyle.

The big kitchen, beautiful dining table and spacious living room under the high ceiling create a calm and peaceful living space. Visitors can come in to take a nap or simply meditate.

We would like to express particularly slow life in Taiwan, so I try to arrange the space (that is) very quiet, very elegant.

The interior is a fantasia of flowing water and flower landscapes. The producer of the pavilion, Serina Lai, says that fusing art with technology presents the ever-changing nature of Taiwan's waters and mountains.

During the daytime around here, it is a park and everything is green, and during the night, we just bring the natural landscape into our house.

By providing an extraordinary resting area, the Pavilion of Angel Life gives its visitors a chance take a break from their busy exploration, with style.

Jason Mraz - I'm Yours

推薦一首好聽的歌。

先別急著查歌詞，看可以聽懂多少。

===========================

歌詞算簡單，改天再來翻譯一下。

===========================

Jason Mraz - I'm Yours Lyrics

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it

I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted

I fell right through the cracks and now I'm trying to get back

Before the cool done run out

I'll be giving it my bestest and nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention

I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait, I'm yours

Mmmmhmmm-Mmmmhhmmm, Mmmmmhmmm

(Heeeeey heeeey)

Open up your mind and see like me

Open up your plans and damn you're free

Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love

Listen to the music of the moment

People dance and sing

We're just one big family

And It's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait, I'm sure

There's no need to complicate

Our time is short

This is our fate, I'm yours

D-d-do do you, do you, d-d-do, do you want to come?

Scooch on over closer dear, I'll whisper in your ear

Wo-ooo-o-oh who-oo-o-o-oh

I've been spending way too long tricking my tongue in the mirror

And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer

But my breath fogged up the glass

And so I drew a new face and laughed

I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason

To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons

It's what we aim to do

Our name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more

It cannot wait, I'm yours

Open up your mind and see like me

(I won't hesitate)

Open up your plans and damn you're free

(No more, no more)

I look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours

(It cannot wait, I'm sure)

So please don't, please don't, please don't

(There's no need to complocate)

There's no need to complocate

(Our time is short)

'Cause our time is short

(This is our fate)

This is oh, this is oh, this is our fate

I'm yours
