My silent Christmas eve 2012
In the Christmas I was nothing to do, so just went around the street. It's really a silent night.
I haven't concentrate to take a good photo for a long time.In this silent night, I fallow the quiet and peace took the clean photography.
<London Stock Exchange>


<Bank station>



Cute!
next term "lantern festival" maybe I will take this helmet.


to remember pose cute!
star shining on the street.





<Westminster abbey>









<St Margaret church>. The Location just beside Westminster abbey. In Christmas eve it have some ceremonies or actives, but Westminster not. However tomorrow UK queen will have the "queen's speech". If you want to learn the "stand British accent",  you should listen the queen's say.







<Apple store in the Oxford circus>

Southwark Cathedral, it  is one of the most valuable scenery in London bridge.Sometimes we can heard the bell ringing when you are on train and crossing London bridge.

Monmouth is a coffee shop and also inner the Top10 London coffee shop which locate in Borough traditional market. You should be there and test it.











I love London Bridge this place and I have to transit there every day. However, there is one Saturday I saw lots of tourists walked through this direction and then I understand there must have a good view scenery.









In side have a corsair and some restaurants.
Actually this place before was a prison....so there is a "prison museum" today.











Except Monmouth another coffee choice."Le pain quotidien coffee"











Inside have breads and salade...meal and I older a croissant. It is really match with Latte.

The beauty and enthusiastic landlady (red clothes one) gave me a strong friendly impression.
In centre also have branch, so Le Pain is a chain coffee store.

Compared with google map street scene, we can see before just an old building. The glass windows part.....可能是加蓋...違章...,但她還是有辦法弄得有藝術的值感, not the iron hut.









The art atmosphere river pavement beside Thames river. There are many museum beside "Tate modern museum". This photo is not very clear and the blur makes it have impressionism feeling.




St.Paul's Cathedral
comment: the bridge in front of St.Pauls' Cathedral is "Millennium Bridge"(千禧橋)





My physical and spiritual food.
"gbk"(not KGB) is next to prison museum.
This time refresh my bad experience and their service very friendly!

Very big hamburger and no one can open their mouth eat entire hamburger. We have to separate it.

延著London bridge 的河岸進行第一天的Espresso Run咖啡跑

寒風中,河邊迴盪著Jazz樂和藝術的氣氛、咖啡的香味
在泰德美術館與聖保羅教堂中間有一座橫跨泰伍仕河的人行步橋,在晚上的光雕下時分的顯眼。

今夜,在橋的中間傳來一陣陣sax的聲音,本來要去虧說Jazz吹的和史坦蓋茲一樣好的,但走進一看發現是一位女孩子,因此我話也沒多說,錢投了就走


今晚,整個河面是屬於她的,從美術館與教堂中間、London bridge to Black friars bridge中間都是她的演奏廳


 今天,來到了這過去一年多不曾來過的泰德美術館。只要用心,每天都會有更好的新發現。

昔日的龍頭
科答不只對底片、影像是專家,數位的技術也是龍頭
話說世界上第一台全片幅單眼還是柯達做出來的
只是後來發現這東西是拿石頭砸自己的腳
不只是消費性底片市場被衝擊到,連電影底片市場也快瓦解了
正確來說是公司組織的策略錯誤,沒有掌握到位來消費習慣所致

this is my personal home work.(for this season)

this one is "Sense and sensibility" author by Jane Austen. I choose this book because I couldn't understand what this book is talking about.
It's really hard study.In last book "Pride and Prejudice
" is better easy to read.My teacher also doubt me can I understand this book! PAP is better to read, but SAS is really really hard to read. one page is about 15~25 vocabulary.

you can see in the empty space lots of comment.( in the future I would print out and make a card note)



the first time I read the novel that I bought in the book store in Taiwan (水準書局). The store owner told me if I don't read this book I will regret all my life. That book name is "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold"《冷戰諜魂》.(大概是比較看得懂得一本小說,刺激的地方真得很刺激,是小說史上最佳的諜報小說之一)

3 months before my teacher ask me to surf and enjoy my holiday.
After surfing, I went to see a movie that Oldman play. Actually I couldn't very sure the movie's name and what the movie talking about. Until the movie was playing and saying the name "George Smiley " , I wake up and cheer up! "Just that spy story!"

The next day after surfing, I went to sainsbury's to buy some food and I saw this DVD. God! this is very chance, I had to buy it. However, this DVD one disk have 3 hours, and inside have 4 disk total 12 hours.....really lone  0rz

I bought the novel (first photo) I believe after I see this drama 3~5 times, and I would read this book easily. However, actually the novel I want to buy is "The Spy Who Came in from the Cold" as the result the Chinese version I had read. Unfortunately all these serial price is  £7.99. The most important thing is some novel buy 3 for 2(買2送1).....so "Tinker tailor soldier spy" have discount and I picked it up.

This book somebody told me is fantastic read, so just for 3 for2 chance bought it.The vocabulary amount is huge that one page >25 new vocabulary, due to some recipe ingredients.









This book......just the free one in 3for 2. looks easy read.....











this serial is buy one get one(買1送1)I like is "improve your spelling".Too many vocabulary read and forget it. Or always spelling wrong. Another one is a simple business book and I need thin basic book to read.


this DVDs I borrowed form school library. "Bolt" I really really really recommend.
"rear window" was directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Last year I borrow his DVD "north north west". I used over 8 hours to write down the dialogue vocabularies which nearly 3~400, and took me lost of  time looked up. 10 months latter, these vocabulary become very useful and always appear in my reading and life.Therefor, I continue to borrow Hitchcock's movie. This one "rear window"is my TV produce teacher "J" recommend (老丁推薦必屬佳作)

Except DVD I have to finish watch and write down vocabulary, all the books is my this season's personal homework.



 Happy birth day, my dear elder sister.
I sacrificed my London eye new year firework, but I got more important things. I have more motivation to charge my English!

This is a great dinner and date.

I hope you would like my gift.
I wish you will have a happy life in London in this new year 2012.

因為自己的心量不夠,才會把自己弄得百病叢生
心量放寬,何處不是道

超越了時間;就只剩下現在。超越了空間;就只有這裡
heaven, is not a time and space
It is a perfect of your heart
天堂不是一個時間,也不是一個空間
而是你心中的一個完美

文章的剽竊問題(plagiarism)


上個星期都在這門課,很硬很無聊,但現在在寫博士論文的朋友說這個很重要。
有多重要,救是什麼都要有來原根據
1.所屬資料來源都要註明出處,誰說的話,哪本書,哪個網站,因此我也問老師,如果是common sense或是我爸我媽告訴我的我也要註明My father/my uncle said...。好笑就在這結果是yes的。如果是自己想出來的,自己必須提供手稿與靈感來原證明是自己想的。
因此我覺的牛頓真的是天才,他的reference全部推給蘋果樹,連帶促進觀光經濟產值(進劍橋看頻果樹要買ticket)
2.以前補國文的時候吳岳告訴我們寫作文的時候不能說"我媽媽說.....",因為會被嗆你媽算老幾...0rz,因此要說國父說...華盛頓說....,一字不漏的背下來、寫下來,人家就會認為你博學多聞。但在英國你必須要全部換句話說,變成妳自己的東西

結論:在國外人家總是希望你自己有自己的想法,你要多看書並吸收成自己的東西、有自己的邏輯;在亞洲,換句話說往往會使的原始的意思變得面目全非

[轉載]
吳念真
雷根第一次選上總統的時候,他的演藝界朋友曾經替他辦了一個晚會
至今都還記得Charlton Heston朗誦一首長詩的時候,那種動人的語氣和神態,因為深深感受到一個藝人真正的「內涵」所在;不過,更記得的是有一段talk show(是哪個演員倒忘了),他說:美國真是一個神奇的國度,演員竟然可以成為總統,不過,萬幸的是,反向而行的悲劇還沒在這裡發生。
比較起來,台灣神奇多了。
藝人成為政治人物算什麼?我們的政治人物都已經可以成為餐廳秀的藝人了!
悲劇。昨天晚上有兩場悲劇同時在台灣上演。一場在電視上,另一場在立法院前。

推薦大家使用一款free的英文字典軟體cdic
下載點:
(音效檔比較大,可選擇是否要下載)
http://cview.com.tw/

















這是目前使用起來最好用的軟體,主要使用目的和大家介紹一下
1.大量閱讀英文文章的時候,理論上會有一堆的生字看不懂,但請不要害怕,要把生自視為正常的,
  a.請先用紅筆或螢光比highline起來做記號
  b.讀完文章後再回過頭來查單字
2.看電影理論上要聽懂一開始並不容易,以前會打開subtitle生自一個個的寫下來,但查字典和手寫的時間很驚人,現在可以用電腦查、印出來,可省下驚人的時間,一天認識300個新單字不會是問題
3.使用Excel表單整理單字,印出來隨身攜帶隨時利用時間記憶
4.這個方法是一種快速強記生自的方法,並不是正統的學習方法,記下來的單自隨時會忘掉這要是為理所當然,主要優勢是大量閱讀一直重複的生字就是重要的單字,交叉查詢之前有印象的同音字、同義字
5.請大家隨手讀一下例句,利用情境加強印象。真正的情境還是要對原文,電影的內容情境來加深、加速記憶,忘掉單字後才有辦法再下次快速想起來
6.正統的學習....除了原文內容情境外,有機會還是用英英字典,對單字的正確理解度才是正確的,單字的情境與用法才不會搞烏龍






















使用步驟:
1.把查過的單字複製,貼上excel
2.中英文分開欄位會比較方便閱讀
(我這時會打開英英字典的輔助軟體,當我單字反白時,會自動念單字給你聽,自己才不會背了半天還背錯發音)
(我的是Macmillan英英字典,牛津劍橋都OK,買英英字典時都會附在書後,甚至到圖書館借來Copy光碟一下都OK)
(可能程式有衝到,所以英英字典和Cdic我只會開一個)















3.反白後按ctrl鍵就會有人念初讀音,反而比自己瞎猜更快更有效率,反正複製時ctrl+c時也會按到ctrl鍵,流程是順的
因此單字與解釋欄位分開也沒有占用到,因為這一個動作同時有2~3功能在同時進行(分欄、聽發音和同時複習單字)












4.接下來就是列印,理論上這樣就可以交差,平時利用瑣碎時間就拿出來讀
5.我個人的習慣會把紙轉成橫向列印,一欄31個單字,一頁2~3欄的生字(加中文解釋就是4or6欄),在印出來之前記的加框方便閱讀
6.我加框是在列印之前的一個動作,因此下次開檔案時看到有加框的就代表已經列印過了
(因為我平時的單字量太大,一有瑣碎的時間再電腦前就是在用Cdic翻譯生字,或是把單字欄位分開,所以斷斷續續的工作,哪些印過會不記得)


結論:在茫茫字海中忘掉單字是正常的,重要的單字會一再的重複。 參考之前的心得:
