Travel company Expedia has announced that it will no longer sell vacations that include experiences with captive dolphins, whales or similar animals.Expedia is one of the largest travel companies in the world, selling flights, accommodation and tickets to many different attractions. Expedia Group also owns a number of popular travel websites and services, including Hotels.com, Cheaptickets and Ebookers.Expedia's new rules mean that from early 2022, it won't sell tickets to shows where dolphins and whales have to perform. Tourists won't be able to use Expedia to buy tickets to attractions where they can do things like swim with captive dolphins and whales either.Expedia will, however, still sell tickets for seaside sanctuaries where the animals won't be made to perform and can only be looked at.Animal rights activists have been asking travel companies to stop selling tickets to whale and dolphin shows for a number of years. Such shows are already banned in places like Canada, India and Bolivia. However, there are still 3,000 captive dolphins being used to entertain tourists around the world, according to The Guardian.Expedia is not the first travel business to stop selling tickets to dolphin and whale shows. Virgin Holidays made the decision to stop selling them in 2019, as did British Airways.In 2018, British holiday company Thomas Cook stopped selling tickets to SeaWorld in the US after a number of animal rights protests. SeaWorld was the subject of the 2013 film Blackfish, which showed how a killer whale was treated cruelly before it killed a trainer in 2010.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每週一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館-----🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

It's no surprise that celebrities can make a lot of money for a lot of people. But what is surprising is how much money they can still make after they have died.According to Forbes latest list of the highest-paid dead celebrities, the total amount of money made by the 13 most profitable dead celebrities in 2021 was nearly $1 billion: triple the amount from the previous year.Revenue is calculated by looking at sales of the dead celebrity's work, deals made with the owners of their estates, and other types of income made from their work in the 12 months since the last list was released in October of the previous year.Forbes has been producing the list every year since October 2001.The highest earner on the list, children's author Roald Dahl, made more money than the other 12 celebrities combined with $513 million. In September 2021, Netflix paid a reported $684 million for the Roald Dahl Story Company, of which around 75% goes to Dahl's estate.In second place is the singer and songwriter Prince, whose living family members sold around 43% of his estate to music company Primary Wave for $120 million. The deal includes such famous songs as "When Doves Cry," "1999" and "When You Were Mine," as well as several unreleased songs.In third place was Michael Jackson, with $75 million, making it the first year he has not taken the top spot since 2012.Other high earners on the list include Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, children's author Dr. Seuss, golfer Arnold Palmer, and musicians Elvis Presley, Bob Marley and John Lennon.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每週一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館-----🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5Neil, 教育廣播電台, 教育電台.教育廣播電臺, 教育電臺, 學英語, 雙語教學花路米,英語學習,雙語學習,英文新聞,雙語,雙語新聞,雙語教育,英語,Bilingual education,越南語,韓語,法語,日語,你的日常我的非常,屠潔 Powered by Firstory Hosting

Robot food delivery is no longer just a dream, with hundreds of little devices now traveling around college campuses and even some city sidewalks in places like the US and the UK.While robots were being tested in small numbers before the coronavirus pandemic, the companies building them say the pandemic has made them more popular. This is because there are not enough workers and customers are now preferring contactless delivery.Starship Technologies, for example, recently completed its 2 millionth delivery. The company has more than 1,000 robots, up from just 250 in 2019, and hundreds more will soon be on the streets.Delivery companies are also starting to use robots. Grubhub recently started working with Russian robot maker Yandex to bring 50 robots to the campus of Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. Grubhub plans to add more campuses soon, although the company says that the service will only be for colleges for now.Many restaurants are struggling to find workers, which is making them use robots instead."There is no store in the country right now with enough delivery drivers," said Dennis Maloney of Domino's Pizza.Domino's is working with Nuro, a California company whose about 1.8-meter-tall self-driving robots go at a top speed of 40 kilometers per hour on streets, not sidewalks. Nuro is testing the delivery of groceries and restaurant food in Houston, Phoenix, and Mountain View, California.Maloney said it's not a question of if, but of when, robots will start doing more deliveries. He thinks companies like Domino's will eventually use both robots and human drivers depending on the location.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每周一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館----------🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

There's nothing worse than getting off a long flight and then having to sit in traffic on the way to your accommodation. But Rome's main airport may have a solution to these travel troubles, as it plans to offer passengers the option of traveling into the city in a flying taxi.Volocopter, a German company that makes flying electric vehicles, has partnered with Fiumicino Airport in Italy to make battery-powered flying taxis available to tourists by 2024.The taxis will seat two passengers, and the journey from the airport to the city will take around 15 minutes, said Marco Troncone, CEO of Aeroporti di Roma, the company that manages the airport. This is half an hour shorter than the 45 minutes the journey currently takes by car.Volocopter's air taxis have been designed to travel up to 35 kilometers with a top speed of 110 kilometers per hour.A ride in one of the taxis will cost around $175, but the price is expected to decrease as the service becomes more popular, Troncone said.Troncone told Reuters that the battery-powered taxis will not create harmful emissions, making them more environmentally friendly than normal taxis.Volocopter is just one of many companies working on flying taxis. The California company Joby Aviation says it has completed more than 1,000 test flights of its flying taxi, which can seat four passengers and a pilot. According to the company, the vehicle can move at up to 322 kilometers per hour, and travel over 240 kilometers on a single charge.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每周一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館----------🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

文章內容If you hate that new movie trailer or don't like the new BTS song, you'll have to find a new way to let the world know, because YouTube will no longer show how many people have clicked the "dislike" button under its videos.On its official blog, YouTube announced that it is making the change to help protect video creators from harassment by viewers. After experimenting with removing the dislike button earlier in 2021, YouTube found that the number of "dislike attacks" — where viewers try to increase the number of dislikes on a video by as much as possible — were reduced.Video creators will still be able to see how many dislikes their own videos have gotten by using YouTube Studio.YouTube wrote that although some people will not agree with the change, it believes that it is the best decision for the site. The change started "gradually" beginning on November 10, it wrote.YouTube's most disliked video is YouTube Rewind 2018: Everyone Controls Rewind, which has 19 million dislikes. Although the video — which was made by YouTube — was meant to be a celebration of the year's YouTube content, many people thought it focused too much on products and celebrities instead of popular YouTube creators.The second most disliked YouTube video is 2016's Baby Shark Dance, which has become famous as one of the most annoying songs ever made. Made by South Korean children's channel Pinkfong, the video has 14 million dislikes. However, it is also the most watched video on YouTube, and has been seen almost 10 billion times.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每周一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館----------🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

A 28-year-old Frenchman has broken his own record for standing on top of a hot air balloon at altitude.On November 10, Remi Ouvrard flew high above the town of Chatellerault in western France with his father, Jean-Daniel Ouvrard, who was flying the balloon.They were taking part in France's Telethon — a charity event that raises money for research and support for people with neuromuscular diseases.To match the charity event's 36-37 phone number, father and son wanted to get Remi and the balloon 3,637 meters above the ground.An Agence France-Presse video shows Remi standing on a pink chair on top of the balloon while wearing a white astronaut suit. He holds two signs with the numbers 36 and 37 on them — numbers that are also on the side of the balloon.But Remi and his father didn't just get to 3,637 meters. They went even higher.Remi got to 4,016 meters, much higher than his February 2020 record of 1,217 meters.After the flight was over, Remi said everything went really well and that the weather had been perfect. "I'm super happy," he said.He had been standing on the balloon for an hour and a half in temperatures below zero degrees Celsius — although Remi said he had actually been "boiling" because of the heat from the balloon.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每周一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館----------🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

👉ArticlePortugal has banned bosses from contacting staff outside of working hours as part of its new "right to rest" law.The new law means companies with more than 10 employees could get fined if they contact staff after their working hours are over — unless they contact them because of an emergency.The new law hopes to protect employees' right to a healthy work-life balance, since there has been a large increase in remote working due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Other changes include more support for parents with young children. Now, they won't have to ask for their company's permission to work from home if their children are under 8 years old.Companies will also have to help pay for some of their staff's home electricity and internet bills. And so that workers don't feel isolated, they'll need to arrange meetings in the office at least once every two months.Government minister Ana Mendes Godinho told the Web Summit technology conference in Lisbon that she hopes the new rules will also help attract more remote workers from abroad.Godinho said she believes Portugal is one of the best places in the world for remote workers to live.Other countries already have similar laws. Not working or answering messages from your employer outside of work hours is protected by law in France, Spain, the Philippines and India.According to research company Gartner, about 32% of employees worldwide could be working remotely by the end of 2021, compared to just 17% in 2019.ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/)#每周一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館----------🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

👉ArticleMany people use Instagram for travel inspiration. With this in mind, a UK website has published a list of the world's most beautiful beaches by using data from over 26 million Instagram hashtags.The team at Money.co.uk researched some of the most popular beaches in the world, then used the distance calculator on Google Maps to check their lengths. By searching through Instagram hashtags, they were able to find out how many photos were taken at each beach. They then divided that number by the length of the beach to calculate how many pictures were shared per meter.The beaches with the most Instagram posts per meter, as of June 2021, were called the most beautiful. Here are the top three results:1. Kelingking Beach, Nusa Penida, Bali, IndonesiaBali's Kelingking Beach is at the top of the list. There were over 338,000 photos of this beach on Instagram in June. And with its bright blue waters and beautiful cliffs, it's easy to understand why!2. Bondi Beach, Sydney, AustraliaIn second place is Bondi Beach, which is located just 7 kilometers from central Sydney and is visited by thousands of people every day. Bondi actually had almost 1.8 million photos, but since it's more than 10 times longer than 80-meter Kelingking Beach, it had far fewer photos per meter.3. Railay Beach, Krabi, ThailandRailay Beach, surrounded by hills and caves, was once a quiet fishing village, but is now one of the most popular beaches in Thailand. There are no roads here, so the only way to get to this 450-meter white-sand beach is by boat.References Article:Engoo Daily News (https://engoo.com.tw/app/daily-news/article/man-banned-from-restaurant-for-eating-too-much/8qoarEuoEey2x4v19I9ORA) (https://engoo.com.tw/)#每周一、四更新#收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽#進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw-----英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil-----Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館----------🎙教育電臺🎙📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

👉Article A man in China has been banned from an all-you-can-eat restaurant for eating too much. The man, who is known by the name Mr. Kang, is a Chinese livestreamer who makes videos about food. Mr. Kang told Hunan TV that he was no longer allowed at Handadi Seafood BBQ Buffet in Changsha city after going there several times and eating a large amount of food. He said that the restaurant is not fair to people who are able to eat a lot. According to Mr. Kang, he ate 1.5 kilograms of pigs' feet on his first visit and 3.5-4 kilograms of prawns during a later visit. On another visit he drank 30 bottles of soy milk. The owner of the restaurant told Hunan TV, "Every time he comes here, I lose a few hundred yuan." 100 yuan is about $16. He also said that he is banning all livestreamers from the restaurant. The story has more than 250 million views on the Chinese social media website Weibo. Some people believe that the restaurant owner is right to ban Mr. Kang, while others say that the restaurant should not be allowed to offer an all-you-can-eat buffet if it can't afford it. In April, China banned videos of people eating too much on social media to try to reduce food waste. Restaurants are also allowed to charge people extra if they eat too little of their food. 👉Summary 中國一名男子因為吃太多而被一家吃到飽餐廳封殺。這名男子是一位中國直播主叫康先生，專門拍攝和食物有關的影片。康先生向《湖南衛視》表示，在前往長沙市的韓大地海鮮燒烤自助餐用餐數次且吃很多食物之後，不再被允許入內消費。 他說，這家餐廳對於很會吃的人來說不公平。根據康先生，他在第一次光顧的時候吃了1.5公斤的豬腳，之後再訪的時候吃了3.5至4公斤的大蝦。 還有另一次他喝了30瓶豆漿。該餐廳老闆向《湖南衛視》透露：「每次他來這裡，我都損失幾百元人民幣。」老闆還表示，他禁止所有直播主來自己的餐廳。 👉Words & Phrases ban禁止 livestreamer直播主 buffet自助餐 References Article: Engoo Daily News (https://engoo.com.tw/app/daily-news/article/man-banned-from-restaurant-for-eating-too-much/8qoarEuoEey2x4v19I9ORA) (https://engoo.com.tw/) 從一則新聞，看見飲食文化、商業模式與社會價值的拉鋸⚖️你怎麼看這件事呢？ #每周一、四更新 #收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽 #進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道 ☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw ----- 英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil ----- Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn 搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館 ----- ----- 🎙教育電臺🎙 📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV 🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink 🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE 🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

👉ArticleWhether you like cooking, comedy or news, there's a TV channel for almost everyone — and now, there's even one just for dogs. DogTV has shows it says are made to keep dogs happy and less stressed when left at home alone. Its website says that the channel was made with help from pet experts and is based on more than 60 studies. According to a survey from CertaPet, 76% of American dogs get separation anxiety, meaning they feel very stressed when left alone. The most common ways owners try to help include exercise, toys and calming music. DogTV offers shows with relaxing sounds and images, and others that are made to help dogs get used to things like car rides or the sound of a doorbell. There are also shows with things dogs might find interesting — like videos of other dogs and animals — to stop them from getting bored. No one is saying dogs should be watching TV all day. Instead, DogTV says the channel can be put on when dogs are home alone. It also says that some owners put the channel on while working from home or cleaning the house. Professor Nicholas Dodman, chief scientist for DogTV, said that the channel is great for dog owners who want to try and reduce some of the behavior problems their pets can have when left alone. These problems could include barking a lot, destroying things or trying to get out of the house. DogTV is available in the UK, US, Australia, Denmark and New Zealand, and it costs about $85 a year, or $10 a month. 👉ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/app/daily-news/article/three-reasons-you-should-visit-madagascar/r0DyckjnEeyum5-DNcJKLQ)(https://engoo.com.tw/) #每周一、四更新 #收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽 #進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道 ☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw ----- 英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil ----- Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn 搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館 ----- ----- 🎙教育電臺🎙 📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV 🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink 🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE 🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting

Madagascar has a lot to offer visitors, but where should you start? Avenue of the Baobabs Baobabs are beautiful but unusual trees that can be found all around Madagascar. Known as the "Tree of Life," they can live to be up to 2,500 years old, and grow up to 18 meters tall.

👉ArticleIf you've ever been worried about calling in sick to work, a new study says that you are not alone. A survey by OnePoll asked 2,000 employed Americans about the stress they felt when asking their bosses for time off work. It found that 58% of workers avoid calling in sick because they are worried about being criticized by their employer. The survey also found that 55% of US workers have to give their managers a reason for calling into work sick. Of that group, two in three said they feel that their bosses never believe their reasons for needing time off. Of the roughly 1,700 survey participants who can work from home, 68% said that they would work even when sick instead of taking the day off. These workers said they feel they should only take time off if they have COVID-19. Sixty-eight percent of people also said that they would work through illness because they "can't afford" to take a sick day. Some US states have laws that require workers to have paid sick leave from work, but there is no national law requiring it. Access to sick leave has become very important since the beginning of the pandemic. Studies have shown that access to sick leave reduces the spread of COVID-19, as well as other diseases like the flu. 👉Summary如果你曾經因為請病假不去上班而感到擔心，一項新研究指出，你並不孤單。OnePoll的一份問卷調查美國2,000名受僱者，關於他們跟老闆請假時感受到的壓力。 它發現，58%員工避免請病假，因為他們擔心會被雇主指責。該問卷亦發現，55%美國員工請病假時必須提供理由給他們的主管。 在那族群當中，三分之二的人表示他們的老闆不曾相信過他們需要請假的理由。自疫情爆發後，請病假的權利就變得非常重要。 研究指出，請假減少了新冠病毒和流感等其他疾病的傳播。 👉Words & Phrasescriticize批評afford負擔得起leave休假 ReferencesArticle: Engoo Daily News(https://engoo.com.tw/app/daily-news/article/survey-most-americans-avoid-calling-in-sick-to-work/tDUs6EeyEeyxKUcjoUcU1w)(https://engoo.com.tw/) #每周一、四更新 #收聽無廣告不用APP選教育電台 線上收聽 #進一步學習語言點選教育電台 語言學習頻道 ☆若您對本頻道節目有任何疑問或建議，請e-mail 至：service@ner.gov.tw ----- 英語節目主持人：屠潔(Jenny)、Neil ----- Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn 搜尋訂閱：世界咖啡館 ----- ----- 🎙教育電臺🎙 📻官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV 🔗粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink 🎧線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE 🎙Channel+精選節目:http://bit.ly/499xCn5 Powered by Firstory Hosting
