(Matsu Pilgrimage) 

Maybe, I need a rest. Without any fruits of hard labor, my enthusiasm dissipated over time. On a normal April day in Taiwan, a group of people, about 20 thousand, prepared for one of the top three religious events of the world listed by Discovery— Matsu Pilgrimage. This peregrination lasted 9 days across over 4 counties with the distance of 300 kilometers, approximate to 186 miles. This international event always attracts more than millions of people to come. Perhaps, this 9 days tour could brought me some, so I followed with Matsu for the journey on my feet. Away from the city and heading into the hug of country side, I felt the slow path leisure. I appreciate Nature. Wildlife suffering from urbanization, freely wandered around the fields without disturbance coming from human activities or industrialization. Migratory birds chasing the sunshine were delighted to enjoy the delicacies located in lakes or forests. They were not just eating; they were appreciating arts in term of food satisfying every salivating beak, immersing in this peaceful wild land. Forests, threatened by logging in order to build skyscrapers replacing the primate canopy across the sky, could stay in peace. This was like an ecological adventure— real experiences absent in textbooks. Smell the aroma by breeze coming through my faces, and see the leaves accompanied by glisten sunshine projecting waving shadow from silent blue sky to vital verdant grass. The splash of rivers crossed through the bedrock. Every moment on the route brought me personally sensory stimulation seared in my mind, forming not a picture but reality about recognization of Nature. The mainstream of modern society is capitalism, and rapid development makes human reluctant to look around and stay clam, however. I stick into this torrent without self-awareness to look back the small big causing my failure. In this travel, everyone had their reasons to come, and for me, I wanted the help of religious power to clam down. Meeting with a lot of people, we shared our stories and helped each other. I realize that this is not just a religious event but a bridge to connect among many people who have different backgrounds and come from different places. Donators, alone the route for the event, were hospitable. It is a gift during the tough peregrination that donators always voluntarily greeted us. They brought various supplies to pilgrims. Being hungry, we always had meals to fulfill our energy. Any food we saw, fruits, bread, pizza, burgers, noddles, dumplings, coffee, or ice cream is free. Just took it. Medical squads stood by. Temporary shelters and shower rooms were built along the route. From this event, I saw a powerful cohesion to raise every citizens’ cultural identity. This connection were displayed in term of invisible culture.

(Goddess divine manifestation)

There are two famous Matsu Pilgrimage; One calls Dajia Matsu Pilgrimage which I joined, and the other is Baishatun Matsu Pilgrimage. A senior shared a divine manifestation. Ting Hsin International Group, a big international enterprise in Taiwan, owns various food brands. Its scandal that one of its brand sold cooking oil adulterated with tainted gutter oil was revealed, allowing for the charge of fraud. But Its senior leaders representing the company wanted to pray for a judgement of not guilty through the power of Baishatun Matsu by crawling under Baishatun Matsu's palanquin. One of the tradition from the event is called “crawling under palanquin”. Kneeling, bowing toward the palanquin, and queuing in two lines on the road, congregants were waiting for the palanquin to pass above them and thereby to received Matsu’s blessing. Due to Ting Hsin notorious products, Matsu’s palanquin bypass the senior leaders with its own will. The staff holding the palanquin emphasized that a magical power pulled away from the leaders without staff’s control. It sounds like that the goddess also regarded Ting Hsin International Group as a guilty, unforgivable enterprise. So, believed it or not. I am not talking about the magical power, but the importance of honesty, worthy to keep in mind.  

(A foreign friend)

Anxiety floods into all the floor, just like the huge power of an arrow on the bow which is ready for turning potential energy for a linear spring to kinetic energy by an archer holding the bow to keep that unstable dynamic equilibrium spreads everyone’s back. Sweating a lot, they, Lieutenant Danny, the police, the criminal, and the hostage, feel nervous, mirrored from the drop of sweat. With sweat dropping, every drop is one of the accumulation of stress.  

Lieutenant Danny is trying to figure out the kidnapper’s favor from their conversation, further eager for the criminal’s line of vigilance collapsed. He wants to build friendship deeper. With the door blocking them into different places, lieutenant Danny takes notes about the questions he wants to talk with the criminal as the pre-questions in order to building the trust to take the criminal’s vigilance line out and making the door open. On the other hand, the teammates of Danny are waiting for breach— the most perfect solution for them to take the kidnapper down by shooting in the breach. But, lieutenant Danny knows that this is a NO, because it’s gonna be a big bet on the result of setting hostage free. Moreover, he ain’t got no idea of what’s going on behind the door and knows zero about the condition. The only thing he knew is that through the kidnapper’s blusters and dog’s barks, there are lives in the room. On the other side of the camera shot, the criminal takes a shotgun with its bullet loaded, directly aiming a girl forced to lie down on the floor with her body curving to one side. The girl is fear to move, and she has no dare to yell. Not to mention a cough— a sound enough to let her die, and to lose her life. With the girl’s face touching on the freezing floor, she feel more fear by chill coming form the floor, forcing her to shake and close her helpless eyes to pray that the kidnapper’s wife could appear to him. In this beginning, lieutenant Danny faces a tremendous challenge and stays in a bad situation with two concerns: how to clam down his irritable teammates and how to assure safety of the hostage.  

During a negotiation, we cannot be sure about the maximum of benefits satisfying with everyone, but able to gain the compromise after communication. So, lieutenant Danny tricks the criminal by saying: your wife has been there, and open that fucking door. To meet his wife, the criminal opens the door, the compromise of the criminal. His teammates, the police, are afraid of Danny to get injured after he rushed into the scene of crime so that they reject the thought of taking the criminal down by shooting the criminal to die. His teammates turn to protect Danny passively, allowing for the improvement in this negotiation. In the case of lieutenant Danny, to set the hostage free and require the enemy’s information by risking himself’s life, too, is his concession.   

When each one side of them seeks for the biggest reward, they relatively pay the cost. During the negotiation. Each one adheres to their bargaining chips, distinguishing “ give and take ” accurately. This, the back-and-forth bargaining process, is the highlight of the negotiation, probably causing the game to change or even to be turnover. As a professional negotiator, lieutenant Danny sees through the whole picture meticulously. Although suffering from difficulity like walking on the bumpy road, he sets a proper beginning and builds relation by talks starting from pets to eliminate the deadlock, making the relation closer to gain changes to get into the room. They talk about lives in universities, American football, and memory between veterans: “ In marine, they teach us not to piss on our hands. ” Such cultural recognition as the final critical key traps him into loosing his vigilance. Consequently, the sniper with toothpick on his mouth shots the criminal down to close the game. 

However, in a brilliant negotiation, the themes mentioned above are not the whole. Apart from methodology built, it is important that here is an opponent with the same level. In the second scene, lieutenant Danny is standing with the negotiator Sabian as an equal, then putting forward to different kind of height. I suddenly became aware that the superb confrontation in the movie could produce semen.

緊張的情緒蔓延整個樓層,猶如弓上箭那般強大的彈力位能轉化成移動動能續施待發等著弓箭⼿彈指剎那的緊繃能量灑滿整個背部,⾓色汗流浹背,臉上汗滴已經照映出他們對現況不安的⾯容,每每一滴都是壓力的積累。

丹尼中尉試圖找出綁架者的喜好,從他們之間的對話來獲得更近一步的突破,兩人隔著⼀道⾨,丹尼中尉⼀方⾯試圖用筆記上提前預想到的問題來跟犯⼈對話,為的就是試圖打開綁架者的⼼房進⽽打開隔者兩人的門片,另⼀方⾯,隊友氣急敗壞的等著攻堅,對他們來來說,開槍讓犯罪者倒地是他們最理想的方式,但是丹中尉知道,這個賭注太大了,畢盡,⾨內所知道的環境幾乎是零,只能透過犯⼈的叫囂,跟⼀隻狗的狂吠知道房間裡面是有⽣命的存在。在鏡頭的另⼀邊,犯人拿者散彈槍,上膛,槍直壓⼀個⼩女孩,制服側躺於地,⼩女孩可是⼀動也不敢動,也沒膽出聲,哪怕是一個咳嗽聲都⾜以讓她升天,賠上性命,⼩女⼦的臉貼在地上,地板上的寒氣讓她更加恐懼,迫使她的⾝軀顫抖著,無助的雙眼也索性閉上了,祈禱著犯⼈要的那位老婆趕快出現。在這開場,無非對丹中尉有極⼤大的弱勢,⼀方⾯面隊友的躁動必須安撫,另⼀邊是人質的安全必須得到保障。

談判的過程當中,絕無法滿足每個人的最大利益,而是能夠得到彼此讓步之後的妥協。丹中尉欺瞞綁架者所要的利益:『他老婆已到』,請他開門簽收,為了得到老婆,房門開啟,這是犯人的妥協,警方隊友為了怕進入犯罪現場的丹中尉受傷,而打消把犯人一槍斃命的想法,轉而被動式的保護丹尼中尉,進而讓整個談判有夠近一步的發展,而丹中尉本身為了得到人質,以及相關敵方其報而將自己置身危機之處,也是他的妥協,各方為了各自的利益最大值的同時,相對也付出了一些代價,在談判當中各方謹守他們的籌碼,他們各自把施惠『給』的跟必須『拿』清楚劃分。而這個一進一退的過程,可說是談判的精髓,談判中的局與勢就此轉變,身為一個專業的談判者,丹中尉心中那把尺可是精打細算著。對於開局可是句句到位,建立關係可是沒有少,從養寵物開始打破僵局對話,雖然跌跌撞撞,一入門還是不忘繼續拉攏關係,大學時代,美式足球,最後成功的關鍵對話是,老兵之間的記憶:『在陸戰隊,上級教我們別尿手上。』用上文化的共鳴,使得犯人完全中招,放鬆戒心,牙籤狙擊手一槍結束案件。

但在一個精彩的談判中,絕非如此,除了方法論的建立之外,談判迎來的對手才是關鍵,正所謂棋逢敵手,電影的第二場景雙方五五波的分庭抗禮和推拉對戰,丹尼中尉跟射比安的對抗,另闢一個場景迎來全片的高潮。

今天要來講一個『以時間換金錢』的故事,故事發生在環球影城,男主角為了可以能夠盡情玩遍所有設施,並且不必對付大魔王而順利冒險,補充說明一下,大魔王就是那個會在每個設施門口當你排隊排到不想再排,或是看到排隊人龍就心涼一半,亦或是看到等候時間200+就意志消沉,的時候,不留意眼神一飄就可以看到大大的四個字--『快速通關』,因為名字太長我們這裡就把『當你排隊排到不想再排,看到排隊人龍就心涼一半,看到等候時間200+就意志消沈的好幫手--快速通關』簡稱大魔王,為了不需要被大魔王跟蹤或是塞錢喂大魔王吃便當,所以男主角展開一系列違反自己平常生理時鐘,用早起的方式並先把熱門的遊戲先搞定的方法,在環球影城渡過了他的一天,以下從結論開始,供大家參考!!!

5.結論: 

以下是假設平日進入園區

1.要搶頭香的朋友大概06:10到門口,如果晚一點大概06:30到門口還是有機會很快進入入園匝門

2.800元台幣的VIP手環建議不用買,因為一樣要早起,開放入園的時間和一般匝口是一樣的

走出京都車站門口一看,
怎麼跟傳說中古色古香的京都差異如此之大,
鋼材建築映入眼簾,
充滿現代感的外型彷彿打臉人們對京都的第一印象,
波浪狀的招牌上金色的京都字樣證明此地的正確性,

A divide between aesthetic and technical considerations has played a crucial role in mapmaking and cartographic scholarship. Since nineteenth century cartographers, for instance, understood themselves as technicians who did not care about visual effects, while others saw themselves as landscape painters. That dichotomy structured the discipline of the history of cartography. Until the 1980s, in what Blakemore and Harley called “the Old is Beautiful Paradigm,” scholars largely focused on maps made before 1800, marveling at their beauty and sometimes regretting the decline of the pre-technical age. Early mapmaking was considered art while modern cartography was located within the realm of engineering utility. Alpers, however, has argued that this boundary would have puzzled mapmakers in the seventeenth century, because they considered themselves to be visual engineers.

Mary Barton, particularly in its early chapters, is a moving response to the suffering of the industrial worker in the England of the 1840’s. What is most impressive about the book is the intense and painstaking effort made by the author, Elizabeth Gaskell, to convey the experience of everyday life in working-class homes. Her method is partly documentary in nature: the novel includes such features as a carefully annotated reproduction of dialect, the exact details of food prices in an account of a tea party, an itemized description of the furniture of the Bartons’ living room, and a transcription (again annotated) of the ballad “The Oldham Weaver.” The interest of this record is considerable, even though the method has a slightly distancing effect.

As a member of the middle class, Gaskell could hardly help approaching working-class life as an outside observer and a reporter, and the reader of the novel is always conscious of this fact. But there is genuine imaginative re-creation in her accounts of the walk in Green Heys Fields, of tea at the Bartons’ house, and of John Barton and his friend’s discovery of the starving family in the cellar in the chapter “Poverty and Death.” Indeed, for a similarly convincing re-creation of such families’ emotions and responses (which are more crucial than the material details on which the mere reporter is apt to concentrate), the English novel had to wait 60 years for the early writing of D. H. Lawrence. If Gaskell never quite conveys the sense of full participation that would completely authenticate this aspect of Mary Barton, she still brings to these scenes an intuitive recognition of feelings that has its own sufficient conviction.

The chapter “Old Alice’s History” brilliantly dramatizes the situation of that early generation of workers brought from the villages and the countryside to the urban industrial centers. The account of Job Legh, the weaver and naturalist who is devoted to the study of biology, vividly embodies one kind of response to an urban industrial environment: an affinity for living things that hardens, by its very contrast with its environment, into a kind of crankiness. The early chapters—about factory workers walking out in spring into Green Heys Fields; about Alice Wilson, remembering in her cellar the twig-gathering for brooms in the native village that she will never again see; about Job Legh, intent on his impaled insects—capture the characteristic responses of a generation to the new and crushing experience of industrialism. The other early chapters eloquently portray the development of the instinctive cooperation with each other that was already becoming an important tradition among workers.

1.Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude toward Gaskell’s use of the method of documentary record in Mary Barton

  1. Uncritical enthusiasm

“ 關係代名詞限定用法VS.非限定用法-『逗號』的差異 ”


首先要來說明一下關係代名詞在幹媽的,其實就是修飾名詞用的,所以在文法定義上他會是形容詞子句要注意它是『不完整子句』,完整句一定是S+Vi 或是S+Vt+O的結構(當然長句子會有介詞結構等等,但這些都不是主要結構),但是為何關係代名詞引導的子句會是不完整句(結構當中缺S或是O就是不完整句),因為這個缺的名詞(S或是O)就是被前面的先行詞取代了,整個關係代名詞引導的形容詞子句去修飾前方的先行詞,另一種說法是關係代名詞which/ who ....,他們的含意就是and+先行詞,所以會產生不完整句就是其中不完整句的S或是O有一個被抓去和and合併被吃掉了,但這不是要探討的重點所以展開至此,大致了解關係代名詞請用不完整句就夠了。至於有時候在結構上會出現 先行詞+ 關係代名詞形容詞子句先行詞+ 『,』關係代名詞形容詞子句,逗點就是關鍵了


這個『逗點』的出現語意會差很大,有逗點表示非限定用法,用數學集合概念來說她前面的先行詞『就是全部等於』後面的關係代名詞也就是先行詞=關代,沒有包含之意,兩者所界定的範圍一樣,先行詞多大,關係代名詞就多大,但是沒有逗點叫做限定用法,他的意思會變成前方的先行詞是整個大集合而後面的關係代名詞是大集合當中的小集合,也就是先行詞裡面的其中一組東西,而這組東西就是關代在講的東西,也可以說關代<先行詞。概念說完來說舉例。
