2013_2_2 看圖說故事,我覺得從圖1到3來看 應該想表達的一件事,如果乘車時占據不讓出博愛座座位,或不給老者、孕婦、小孩或有傷殘等需要的人使用,那麼當有一天自己在運動時不小心受傷,你搭乘大眾捷運載具時也將不會有人和人讓出座位來,也會讓你自覺得很不方便,因此要學會讓出博愛座。 這樣寫,應該會得到點分數才對。 given up 讓座(讓出)/to give up 讓出/voluntarily 自願/recognised 認定/reluctant 不願 Priority seats 優先座位/博愛座

Have you voluntarily given up your seat as you recognised someone’s need for it?  Or perhaps you have been in need of a priority seat that was occupied and were reluctant to ask for it to be given up.

Priority seats can be used by anyone, but they should be given up if they’re needed more by people with disabilities, expectant mothers, elderly passengers or those carrying infants. Someone’s need for a seat may not be obvious, for example they may have a hidden disability or be in the early stages of pregnancy, it takes courage to ask someone to give up their seat so when asked please allow someone to sit down.(共113words)

The Swiss army knife is  a popular device that is recognized all over the world. In Switzerland, there  is a saying that every good Swiss citizen has one in his or her pocket. But the knife had humble beginnings.

In the late nineteenth  century, the Swiss army issued its soldiers a gun that required a special  screwdriver to dismantle and clean it. At the same time, canned food was  becoming common in the army. Swiss generals decided to issue each soldier a  standard knife to serve both as a screwdriver and a can opener.

It was a lifesaver for  Swiss knife makers, who were struggling to compete with cheaper German  imports. In 1884, Carl Elsener, head of the Swiss knife manufacturer  Victorinox, seized that opportunity with both hands, and designed a soldier’s  knife that the army loved. It was a simple knife with one big blade, a can  opener, and a screwdriver.

A few years after the  soldier’s knife was issued, the “Schweizer Offizier Messer,” or Swiss  Officer’s Knife, came on the market. Interestingly, the Officer’s Knife was  never given to those serving in the army. The Swiss military purchasers  considered the new model with a corkscrew for opening wine not “essential for  survival,” so officers had to buy this new model by themselves. But its  special multi-functional design later launched the knife as a global brand.  After the Second World War, a great number of American soldiers were  stationed in Europe. And as they could buy the Swiss army knife at shops on  military bases, they bought huge quantities of them. However, it

seems that “Schweizer  Offizier Messer” was too difficult for them to say, so they just called it the Swiss army knife, and that is the name  it is now known by all over the world.
