玩手遊打到成鷹爪
Mobile Gamer's Claw-Shaped Hand
Playing mobile games (手機遊戲) is a lot of fun.
But playing on a phone for hours can cause problems for your body.
A man in Taichung learned this the hard way (慘遭教訓).
He had a very bad habit (習慣) of playing mobile games for hours and hours while lying in bed.
The man would lie down on his belly and prop himself up on his elbows at a 90 degree angle.
他趴在肚子上，用手肘彎曲90度的姿勢支撐自己。
Until one day, he noticed his ring finger and little finger start to feel numb (無名指和小指開始發麻).
His fingers were stuck in a bent position, making his hands look like claws.
他的手指被卡在彎曲的形狀，讓他的手看起來像爪子。
He went to the doctor's office, where he found out he suffered from cubital tunnel syndrome (肘隧道症候群).
The doctor said the nerves in his elbows were always under pressure when he lay down, causing his fingers to go numb.
醫生說，躺下時，他的肘部神經總是受壓，導致手指麻木。
Because his condition was so serious, the man had to get surgery (手術) on both hands!
He is now recovering, and his hands are back to normal.
The doctor says keeping good posture (姿勢) is important for your long-term health.
So, if you're sitting for hours playing games, or doing homework, make sure to change positions every 30 minutes!

埃及氣候峰會
COP27: Climate Summit in Egypt
Many world leaders are in Egypt this week for an annual climate change conference.
許多世界領導人本週在埃及參加年度氣候變化會議。
The Conference of the Parties, or COP27, is the 27th United Nations Climate Change Conference (第27屆聯合國氣候變化大會).
The UN shares information every year to help world governments stop global warming (地球暖化).
And for the first time ever, there's an official space for kids and young people at the conference.
In the Children and Youth Pavilion, they'll get to talk to world leaders, ministers, and other important people.
It's led entirely by young people and is run by child and youth networks.
它完全由年輕人主辦，由兒童和青年團體運營。
Its goal is to let the voices of children and teenagers across the world participate in this global issue.
目標是讓全世界兒童和青少年的聲音參與到這個全球性問題。
Many young people are protesting (抗議) now because they want world leaders to make some big decisions.
But it might be difficult for leaders to agree on everything.
The rising price of gas and energy is one of the challenges many countries face…
天然氣和能源價格上漲是許多國家面臨的挑戰之一。
And other countries say they don't have enough money to spend on global warming.
COP27 is being held from November 6th to 18th in Egypt.

非常昂貴的狗零食
Pet Dog Has a Very Expensive Snack
If you have a pet dog, you know that dogs can be very naughty sometimes (狗有時會很頑皮).
They do things like make a lot of noise, make a mess inside your house, or chew up your shoes and slippers.
他們會製造很多噪音，把你的房子弄得一團糟，或者把你的鞋子和拖鞋嚼爛。
But one particular dog was very, very naughty, because he decided to get up on the table at his owners' home to chew up (咀嚼) all the papers he found there.
Unfortunately, the dog didn't just chew up papers, he chewed up the paper money (鈔票) that his owners left on the table.
When his owner came home, she was very upset (懊惱).
The dog destroyed more than two thousand US dollars in cash!
The owner told all her friends on social media, and the video went viral (在網上瘋傳).
One person suggested she take all the pieces to the bank and ask for help.
Another person suggested using tape (膠帶) to put all the notes together.
In the end, the woman said the situation wasn't as bad as it looked.
She and her husband were able to tape most of the money together, and they think they lost just three hundred dollars.
It might sound like plenty of cash - but it is still much less than two thousand dollars!
