Dale Carnegie (Author of "How to Win Friends and Influence People") Quote: "Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy." 戴爾·卡內基(《人性的弱點》作者) 名言:「猶豫不決會滋生懷疑和恐懼。行動能建立自信和勇氣。如果你想克服恐懼,不要坐在家裡想東想西,出門去忙碌才是正道。」 Born in 1888 in Missouri, Dale Carnegie grew up in poverty on a farm. He began his career as a salesman but found his true calling in public speaking. In 1912, he rented a YMCA room to teach public speaking, developing what would become the Dale Carnegie Course. His breakthrough came in 1936 with "How to Win Friends and Influence People," which has sold over 30 million copies and been translated into 36 languages. What many don't know is that Carnegie changed his surname's spelling from "Carnagey" to match that of industrialist Andrew Carnegie, hoping to benefit from the association. His teaching method was revolutionary – instead of focusing on theory, he emphasized practical experience and learning from mistakes. He would have students speak about their failures and learn from them, creating a supportive environment for personal growth. The Dale Carnegie Training program has graduated over 8 million people worldwide. Despite his success in teaching confidence, Carnegie himself battled depression and self-doubt throughout his life, making his achievements even more remarkable. 戴爾·卡內基1888年生於密蘇里州一個貧困的農家。他最初當推銷員,後來發現自己在公眾演說方面的天賦。1912年,他租下基督教青年會的一間教室教授演說,這就是日後「戴爾·卡內基課程」的雛形。1936年出版的《人性的弱點》讓他一舉成名,該書至今銷量超過3000萬冊,翻譯成36種語言。鮮為人知的是,卡內基將姓氏拼法從「Carnagey」改成「Carnegie」,是為了讓人聯想到企業家安德魯·卡內基。他的教學方法很創新-不專注於理論,而是強調實務經驗和從錯誤中學習。他會讓學員分享自己的失敗經驗並從中學習,營造支持個人成長的環境。全球已有超過800萬人完成戴爾·卡內基訓練課程。儘管在教導他人建立自信方面很成功,卡內基一生都在與憂鬱症和自我懷疑抗爭,這使他的成就更顯難能可貴。 2. Stephen Covey (Author of "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People") Quote: "I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions." 史蒂芬·柯維(《與成功有約》作者) 名言:「我不是環境的產物,而是決定的產物。」 Stephen Covey was born in 1932 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Before becoming a management guru, he served as a Mormon missionary in England. He earned his MBA from Harvard and a doctorate from Brigham Young University. Covey spent years researching success literature from the past 200 years before writing "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" (1989), which has sold over 25 million copies in 40 languages. The book took him over 20 years to develop. Covey created the concept of "paradigm shift" in personal development and introduced the idea of "abundance mentality" versus "scarcity mentality." He suffered from a severe head injury from a bicycle accident in 2012, which led to his passing, but his work continues to influence millions. He was named one of Time magazine's 25 most influential Americans in 1996. Covey practiced what he preached – he would wake up at 5 AM daily to exercise and plan his day, demonstrating the "first things first" principle from his book. 史蒂芬·柯維1932年生於猶他州鹽湖城。在成為管理大師之前,他曾在英國擔任摩門教傳教士。他獲得哈佛大學MBA學位和楊百翰大學博士學位。在寫作《高效能人士的七個習慣》(1989年)之前,他花了多年研究過去200年的成功文獻,該書至今銷量超過2500萬冊,被翻譯成40種語言。這本書花了他20多年才完成。柯維在個人發展領域創造了「典範轉移」的概念,並提出「豐盛心態」對比「匱乏心態」的理念。2012年他因自行車事故導致嚴重頭部受傷而離世,但他的理念持續影響著數百萬人。1996年,《時代》雜誌將他評為美國25位最具影響力人物之一。柯維身體力行他所提倡的理念-每天清晨5點起床運動並規劃一天,展現了他書中「要事第一」的原則。 3. Tony Robbins (Author and Motivational Speaker) Quote: "The path to success is to take massive, determined action." 東尼·羅賓斯(作家與勵志演說家) 名言:「通往成功的道路就是採取大規模的、堅定的行動。」 Born Anthony J. Mahavoric in 1960, Tony Robbins grew up in a financially struggling family. He left home at 17 and worked as a janitor to support himself. His career began when he started promoting seminars for Jim Rohn, who became his mentor. Robbins developed his own methodology by studying Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) and various psychological approaches. His breakthrough came with "Unlimited Power" in 1986, but he's perhaps best known for his seminars, including the famous "firewalk" experience where participants walk across hot coals. What's less known is that Robbins has a condition called acromegaly, which caused his distinctive appearance and deep voice. He has coached notable figures including Bill Clinton, Serena Williams, and Hugh Jackman. Despite having no college degree, he's built a billion-dollar business empire. Robbins feeds millions through his partnership with Feeding America, having provided over 500 million meals to date. He attributes his success to his voracious reading habit, reportedly reading 700 words per minute and averaging one book per day in his early career 東尼·羅賓斯原名安東尼·馬哈沃里克,1960年出生於一個經濟困難的家庭。17歲離家,靠當清潔工維生。他的職業生涯始於為吉姆·羅恩(後來成為他的導師)推廣研討會。羅賓斯研究神經語言程式學(NLP)和各種心理學方法,發展出自己的方法論。1986年出版的《無限的力量》讓他成名,但他最為人知的是他的研討會,包括著名的「走火」體驗,參與者要走過滾燙的煤炭。較少人知道的是,羅賓斯患有肢端肥大症,這造就了他獨特的外表和低沉的嗓音。他曾指導過許多名人,包括比爾·柯林頓、小威廉絲和休·傑克曼。儘管沒有大學學位,他建立了一個價值數十億美元的商業帝國。透過與慈善組織Feeding America的合作,他已提供超過5億份餐食。他將成功歸功於廣泛閱讀的習慣,據說他的閱讀速度每分鐘700字,在事業早期平均一天讀一本書。

L084: China's Rare Earth Gambit Highlights 主題摘要 China added five rare earth elements to export restrictions before Trump-Xi talks.Foreign firms using Chinese materials must obtain export licenses.Defense users face denials while chip applications undergo case reviews. China announced major rare earth export control expansions on October 9, adding five elements—holmium, erbium, thulium, europium, and ytterbium—to its restriction list. These materials are vital for manufacturing products from smartphone screens to jet engines and military radar systems. The timing appears strategic, coming weeks before Presidents Trump and Xi meet in South Korea. Beijing controls over 90% of global rare earth processing, giving it significant leverage in trade negotiations. The Ministry of Commerce also added dozens of refining technologies to the control list. 中國於10月9日宣布大幅擴大稀土出口管制,將鈥、鉺、銩、銪和鐿五種元素納入限制清單。這些材料對於製造智慧型手機螢幕、噴射引擎和軍用雷達系統等產品至關重要。時機選在川習南韓會面前數週,顯然具有戰略意圖。北京控制全球超過90%的稀土加工,在貿易談判中握有重要籌碼。中華人民共和國商務部同時將數十項精煉技術納入管制清單。 The new regulations extend Beijing's reach beyond its borders. Foreign companies producing rare earths or related magnets must obtain Chinese export licenses if their products contain Chinese equipment or materials, even when no Chinese firms are involved. This mirrors U.S. semiconductor export controls that restrict chipmaking equipment sales to China. Defense manufacturers will not receive licenses, while applications for advanced semiconductors—including 14-nanometer chips and memory chips with 256 layers or more—face rigorous scrutiny. The rules also cover artificial intelligence research with potential military applications, affecting major chipmakers in South Korea and Taiwan. 新規定將北京的管轄權延伸至境外。生產稀土或相關磁材的外國企業,若產品含有中國設備或材料就必須取得中國出口許可,即使交易中沒有中國公司參與也一樣。這種做法仿效美國的半導體出口管制,限制晶片製造設備銷往中國。國防製造商將無法獲得許可,而先進半導體申請——包括14奈米晶片及256層以上記憶體晶片——也面臨嚴格審查。規定並涵蓋具潛在軍事用途的人工智慧研究,影響了南韓和台灣的主要晶片製造商。 Analysts view the expanded controls as positioning for the upcoming summit. "This helps with increasing leverage for Beijing ahead of the anticipated Trump-Xi summit," said Tim Zhang of Edge Research. The White House expressed concern that the rules were "imposed in an apparent effort to exert control over the entire world's technology supply chains." The announcement followed U.S. lawmakers' calls for broader bans on chipmaking equipment exports to China, reflecting escalating technological competition. Industry observers note this could mark the beginning of parallel supply chain systems. 分析師認為擴大管制是為即將到來的峰會布局。新加坡市場調查機構「Edge Research」創辦人Tim Zhang指出:「這有助於北京在川習峰會前增加籌碼。」白宮表示關切,認為規定「顯然意圖控制全球科技供應鏈」。此宣布發生在美國議員呼籲擴大禁止晶片製造設備出口至中國之後,反映科技競爭升級。產業觀察家指出,這可能標誌著平行供應鏈系統的開端。 Market reactions were swift. Chinese rare earth companies surged, with China Northern Rare Earth Group gaining 10% and Shenghe Resources climbing 9.4%. U.S.-based producers also rallied, with Critical Metals jumping 25% and USA Rare Earth up 15%. Industry experts predict "structural bifurcation" as China localizes its value chain while the U.S. and allies accelerate efforts to build alternative networks. The restrictions take effect November 8, with foreign producer compliance requirements starting December 1, shortly before a 90-day trade truce expires. 市場反應迅速。中國稀土企業大漲,中國北方稀土集團上漲10%,盛和資源上漲9.4%。美國生產商股價也上揚,Critical Metals跳漲25%,USA Rare Earth上漲15%。產業專家預測將出現「結構性分化」,中國本地化自己的價值鏈,而美國和其盟友則加速建立替代網絡。限制將於11月8日生效,外國生產商合規要求將從12月1日開始,時間點就在90天貿易休戰期屆滿前不久。 Keyword Drills 關鍵字 Strategic [adjective, carefully planned]: The timing appears strategic, coming weeks before Presidents Trump and Xi meet.Rigorous [adjective, thorough and strict]: Applications for advanced semiconductors face rigorous scrutiny.Exert [verb, to apply force or influence]: The rules were imposed in an apparent effort to exert control over supply chains.Bifurcation [noun, division into two parts]: Industry experts predict structural bifurcation in supply chains.Compliance [noun, following rules]: Foreign producer compliance requirements starting December 1.

Park said the service will soon be introduced in other regions of the province. Other cities outside Gyeonggi Province with drive-thru clinics are Daegu and Sejong. 京畿道政府聯絡官朴炫秀(譯音)說,在得來速門診進行的體檢,比在各醫院或衛生所做的典型檢查約快20分鐘。朴還說,這項服務很快就將被引進該道其他地區。京畿道以外設有得來速門診的其他城市為大邱與世宗。 Next Article Topic: Vintage fashion: senior models bridge S. Korea's age divide 陳年時尚:高齡模特兒縮小南韓世代鴻溝 Aged 70 she was working 20 hours a day in a hospital just to make ends meet. Now at 75, Choi Soon-hwa is an unlikely fashion star and model in South Korea. 70歲時,她每天在醫院工作20小時也僅能餬口。現在75歲,崔順花在南韓是打破眾人印象的時尚明星和模特兒。 "I think of having this job at this age as a miracle," Choi says. 「我覺得在這年紀能有這份工作,已經是奇蹟了」,崔順花說。 She is now the oldest professional model in the South, and has walked runway at Seoul Fashion Week. It is a far cry from her life even just a few years ago when she was a care worker. 她是目前南韓年紀最大的職業模特兒,在首爾時尚週走過秀。這與她僅僅數年前還是一名看護員的生活截然不同。 "The stress was excruciating," she confesses. 「那時候壓力大得令人喘不過氣」,她坦言。 When she worked at the hospital, she says she had to dye her hair as patients didn't want someone who "looked too old" to look after them. Now her pale locks have become an asset to a new generation of designers who value distinctiveness. 她說,她在醫院工作的那段時間,因為病患不希望被「看起來太老」的人照顧,她不得不染髮。現在,她的一頭銀髮反而成為重視獨特性的新世代設計師眼中的資產。 Source article: https://features.ltn.com.tw/english/article/paper/1355590; https://features.ltn.com.tw/english/article/paper/1352896 Next Article Topic: More 'Korean bananas' to be harvested this year amid climate change Jeju Island was long considered the only warm-enough region in Korea for commercial banana farming, but climate change is now turning the mainland into a producer of the tropical fruit. 濟州島長久以來被認為是韓國唯一一個夠溫暖的地區,適合香蕉商業化種植。但氣候變遷現在正使韓國本土,變成這種熱帶水果的產地。 According to the agricultural technology center in North Chungcheong Province, the number of people investing in banana farming has surged in recent years. 根據忠清北道農業技術中心,投資香蕉種植的人數近年來已急遽增加。 About 99.7 percent of all bananas consumed here are imported, mainly from the Philippines, and most of the rest is produced on Jeju. But with more farmers exploring the field, this soon could change. 南韓吃掉的所有香蕉中,約99.7%為進口,主要來自菲律賓,其餘大多數產自濟州島。惟隨著更多農民探索這片領域,這種情形不久就可能有所改變。 Next Article Topic: South Korean football club fined $81,300 after filling stands with 'sex dolls' 南韓足球隊在看台上擺放充氣娃娃後被罰款8萬1300美元 South Korean football team FC Seoul has said it has been handed a 100 million KRW ($81,300) fine after being accused of placing sex dolls in its stands to add to the atmosphere during a closed match. 南韓足球隊FC首爾隊表示,該隊在被控於看台上擺放充氣娃娃,以便在一場閉門比賽時增添氣氛後,遭罰款1億韓圜(8萬1300美元)。 FC Seoul sparked controversy on Sunday during its home match against Gwangju in South Korea's top football championship, with the club being accused of using sex dolls to fill its stands. FC首爾隊週日在主場出戰光州隊的南韓頂級足球聯賽中引發爭議,被控在看台上擺放充氣娃娃。 Fans criticized the club online and said it had blown the chance to show off the K League to an international audience. 球迷在網路上痛批該隊,指稱該隊讓向各國觀賽者展現南韓足球聯盟的大好良機告吹。 "FC Seoul messed it up making the league look salacious," wrote one. "It's really ugly and dirty." 「FC首爾隊搞砸了,讓聯盟看起來很淫蕩,」一名球迷寫道。「真的又醜又髒。」 However others said the whole incident had been blown out of proportion. 但也有其他人覺得,整件事情未免小題大作。 "Those who don't even watch football normally are turning this into a thing," wrote another fan. 「通常是那些連足球都沒在看的人才會把這個當一回事,」一名球迷寫道。 Source article: https://features.ltn.com.tw/english/article/paper/1379287; https://features.ltn.com.tw/english/article/paper/1379517 Next Article Topic: Real Korean Flavor For a YouTube Table During the years that she was addicted to online gaming, life for Emily Kim began when she got home from work at 6 p.m. 艾蜜莉.金沉迷網路遊戲那些年,她的生活從下午6點下班到家開始。 "I would shower quick, and eat something, no matter what, so I could start playing my game," said Ms. Kim, a.k.a the YouTube Korean-cooking star Maangchi. "And I wouldn't stop till 3 a.m." 「我會很快沖個澡,隨便吃點東西,然後就玩遊戲,一直玩到凌晨3點。」這位金女士,也就是YouTube上的韓國料理烹飪明星Maangchi,如是說。 In 2003, divorced and with her two grown children out of the house, Ms. Kim ventured into the online role-playing battle game City of Heroes and couldn't pull herself away. Maangchi, pronounced MAHNG-chee and meaning "hammer" in Korean, was the name of her online avatar, who specialized in destruction, wielding a huge scimitar and wearing a tiny miniskirt. 2003年,她離了婚,兩個孩子也長大離家,她投入線上角色扮演打鬥遊戲《城市英雄》,難以自拔。Maangchi是她的網名,發音似「忙起」,在韓語中是「鐵鎚」的意思。Maangchi揮舞巨大的短彎刀,穿超短裙,擅長破壞。 In 2007, her children persuaded her to try a more nourishing form of Internet expression: cooking videos. "I had no idea if anyone would watch me," she said, "but the Korean recipes I saw in English were full of mistakes, and I wanted to show the real way we do things." 2007年,孩子們勸她嘗試一種更有營養的網路表達方式:烹飪視頻。「我不知道有沒有人想看我,」她說,「不過,我看到的英文韓國菜食譜充滿錯誤,所以我想展示我們道地的烹飪方法。」 Now, Ms. Kim has more than 619,000 YouTube subscribers. 如今,她的YouTube頻道訂戶超過65萬。 At age 58, she has just published a cookbook, "Maangchi's Real Korean Cooking," one of the few comprehensive books on Korean cooking written for Americans, but without major adjustments to make the food more accessible. 58歲的她剛出版了《Maangchi的正宗韓餐食譜》,這是少數寫給美國人看、內容詳盡的韓餐食譜,但沒有為方便讀者而做重大調整。 From watching her videos, it is hard to envision Ms. Kim as a reclusive gamer. In extravagant eye makeup and bright pink lipstick, she cooks huge batches of bibimbap, bulgogi and KFC, sweet-sticky-spicy Korean fried chicken. She demonstrates the endless variations of kimchi and schools her viewers in the pronunciation of dishes like soegogi-muguk (pronounced SAY-go-gee moo-GUHK), beef and radish soup. 看她的視頻,很難想像她是個宅在家的網路玩家。她打著濃厚的眼影,塗著亮粉色口紅,烹調石鍋拌飯、韓國烤肉,以及肯德基式的甜辣韓國炸雞。她向觀眾展示種類繁多的韓國泡菜,傳授食物的正確發音,比如牛肉蘿蔔湯。 Although she presents herself as lighthearted, Ms. Kim is first and foremost a teacher, and a strict one at that. "I have to do everything correctly," she said. "Otherwise I will hear about it from the Koreans." 儘管擺出一副輕鬆模樣,但首先她是位老師,而且是位嚴師。「我每件事都得做好,」她說。「否則會被韓國人批評。」 This is a phrase she often repeated to the editors of her cookbook when they quailed at including recipes for fermented sardines, jellyfish salad and kelp stock. This, Ms. Kim believes, is the problem with virtually every Korean restaurant in the United States: The food is sweeter, saltier, less spicy, less fishy and less rich with umami than it should be. 這是食譜編輯怯於把某些菜單,例如發酵沙丁魚、涼拌海蜇皮和海帶高湯加

    名人正念語錄 Inspirations 知名旅遊作家與節目主持人 Famous travel authors and TV show hosts

Rick Steves (Travel Writer and TV Host) Quote: "Travel is rich with learning opportunities, and the ultimate souvenir is a broader perspective." Rick Steves began his travel career in 1976, teaching piano to fund his trips across Europe. He started his business by giving travel lectures in his hometown of Edmonds, Washington, and self-published his first guide book "Europe Through the Back Door" in 1980. What sets Steves apart is his philosophy of "temporary local" travel – encouraging travelers to experience destinations like locals rather than tourists. His PBS show "Rick Steves' Europe" has aired since 2000, but he actually started in public television by doing travel segments for his local PBS station while washing dishes in their cafeteria. Despite his success, he still leads tours several weeks each year to stay connected with travelers and maintain his expertise. He advocates for what he calls "thoughtful travel" – using travel as a tool for breaking down cultural barriers and promoting global understanding. Interestingly, Steves maintains a policy of featuring only places that regular travelers can realistically visit, refusing to showcase exclusive resorts or luxury experiences that are out of reach for average tourists. 1. 瑞克·史蒂夫斯(旅遊作家與電視節目主持人) 名言:「旅行充滿學習機會,最珍貴的紀念品就是更寬廣的視野。」 瑞克·史蒂夫斯1976年開始旅遊生涯,靠教鋼琴資助自己環遊歐洲。他在家鄉華盛頓州艾德蒙茲開始事業,舉辦旅遊講座,1980年自費出版第一本旅遊指南《歐洲後門之旅》。史蒂夫斯與眾不同之處在於他提倡「暫時成為當地人」的旅行哲學-鼓勵旅客像當地人而不是遊客般體驗目的地。他的PBS節目《瑞克·史蒂夫斯的歐洲》自2000年開播,但其實他是從在當地PBS電視台餐廳洗盤子時開始製作旅遊節目單元的。儘管事業有成,他每年仍親自帶團數週,以保持與旅客的連結和專業知識。他提倡「深思熟慮的旅行」-運用旅行作為打破文化隔閡和促進全球理解的工具。有趣的是,史蒂夫斯堅持只介紹一般旅客實際可以造訪的地方,拒絕展示一般人負擔不起的奢華度假村或豪華體驗。 2. Anthony Bourdain (Chef, Author, and Travel Documentarian) Quote: "If you're twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go." Anthony Bourdain began his journey not as a travel writer but as a chef in New York City. His breakthrough came with his 2000 book "Kitchen Confidential," which led to his first TV show "A Cook's Tour." Bourdain was known for his unique approach to travel journalism, focusing on how food connects to larger cultural and political issues. He spoke French fluently and studied at Vassar College before dropping out to pursue cooking. During his career, he visited over 100 countries, often highlighting lesser-known destinations and local cuisine. What many don't know is that he wrote several crime novels before his food writing career took off. Bourdain insisted on paying for meals at restaurants featured in his shows to maintain journalistic integrity. He was also known for learning basic phrases in the local language of wherever he visited, believing it showed respect for the culture. His show "Parts Unknown" won multiple Emmy Awards and a Peabody Award for expanding viewers' cultural knowledge through food and travel. 2. 安東尼·波登(廚師、作家與旅遊紀錄片製作人) 名言:「如果你22歲,身體健康,渴望學習和進步,我強烈建議你去旅行-越遠越好,範圍越廣越好。必要時可以睡地板。去了解別人如何生活、吃什麼、怎麼煮飯。無論去哪裡都要向他們學習。」 安東尼·波登最初不是旅遊作家,而是紐約市的一名廚師。2000年出版的《廚房機密》讓他一舉成名,進而開始主持首個電視節目《廚師巡迴之旅》。波登以獨特的旅遊報導方式聞名,專注於食物如何連結更廣泛的文化和政治議題。他精通法語,曾就讀瓦薩學院但中途輟學去學廚藝。在他的職業生涯中,他造訪過100多個國家,經常報導鮮為人知的目的地和當地美食。許多人不知道他在投入美食寫作之前曾寫過幾本犯罪小說。波登堅持自掏腰包支付節目中餐廳的餐費,以維持新聞誠信。他也以在每個造訪地點學習基本當地用語聞名,認為這表示對文化的尊重。他的節目《未知之旅》獲得多項艾美獎和皮博迪獎,因為透過美食和旅行擴展了觀眾的文化知識。 3. Bill Bryson (Travel Author) Quote: "To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted." Bill Bryson was born in Des Moines, Iowa, but spent much of his adult life in Britain, giving him a unique perspective on both American and British culture. His travel writing career began almost accidentally during a backpacking trip across Europe in the 1970s. He started keeping detailed notes about his experiences, which later became his first travel book "The Lost Continent." Bryson is known for combining historical research, scientific facts, and humor in his travel writing. He has served as the chancellor of Durham University and was made an honorary Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for his contributions to literature. What makes Bryson unique is his ability to find fascinating stories in seemingly ordinary places – his book "A Walk in the Woods" turned a hike on the Appalachian Trail into a bestseller. He's also known for his meticulous research; for his book "A Short History of Nearly Everything," he spent three years studying science to make complex topics accessible to general readers. 3. 比爾·布萊森(旅遊作家) 名言:「在我看來,旅行最大的回報和奢侈在於能夠像第一次般體驗日常事物,處在一個幾乎沒有什麼事物是理所當然的位置。」 比爾·布萊森生於愛荷華州德梅因,但成年後大部分時間都在英國生活,這讓他對美國和英國文化都有獨特的見解。他的旅遊寫作生涯幾乎是偶然開始的,源於1970年代的一次歐洲背包之旅。他開始詳細記錄自己的經歷,後來成為他的第一本旅遊書《失落的大陸》。布萊森以在旅遊寫作中結合歷史研究、科學事實和幽默聞名。他曾擔任杜倫大學校長,因對文學的貢獻獲頒大英帝國勳章(OBE)榮譽官佐勳章。布萊森的獨特之處在於他能在看似平凡的地方發掘迷人的故事-他的《林間散步》把阿帕拉契山徑的健行經歷寫成暢銷書。他也以認真研究聞名;為了寫《萬物簡史》,他花了三年時間研究科學,讓複雜的主題變得平易近人。
