The origins of the F-35 and the amazing challenges the industry had to be overcome go back to a still-secret NATO study that evaluated the vulnerability of air force bases in the West.This spurred development for Short Take off and Vertical Landing (STOVL) fighter aircraft. Only two aircraft with this capability actually entered service, the British Harrier and the Russian Yak-38. However, these aircraft lacked supersonic capability which made them vulnerable to faster fighters. So a programme was initiated for a supersonic STOVL fighter - but the trail of unsuccessful efforts was long. NASA, as well as the defense Evaluation and Research Agency and private industry, studied advanced STOVL propulsion ideas but without tangible result. It was only when the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, at the request of the Marine Corps, issued study contracts for a supersonic STOVL fighter to American industry that real progress began to be made.It was Lockheed Martin that came up finally

“if 如果”乃事後諸葛的「代名詞」(pronoun)。當我開始學English時，如果知道「英語」Spoken English 和「英文」Written English 要有不同的學習方法，就不會走那麼長的冤枉路！「繞過九彎十八拐，到達目的地之後才知道，原來這條路有捷徑。」，這就是我學英語60 年的心路歷程，希望您別步我後塵，事倍功半。 打從1962 年初一開始學英文，一路馬不停蹄直到2023 年的現在，60 年來，自己的English capability 到底如何了？我的回答：英語說、聽都通；英文讀、寫也行，只是不能像自己的母語或國語，可以得心應手，信手拈來。畢竟，English 不是我的mother tongue，也非我的national language。 英語(Spoken English) 很簡單，可以速成，但英文(Written English)無捷徑，一步一腳印。所以，學習方法應是「先英語，再英文」的順序。台灣學校裡的English 教學卻是本末倒置，難怪學生學了10年英文，大學畢業後仍無法流利說英語。 至於為何要學English ？若只舉兩個最主要理由，我會說：1.English 已是當今全球最通用的「世界語」，懂英語可以世界各地趴趴走。2.English 是吸收歐、美科技新知的「好工具」，不必等待漢文翻譯才能讀。 「全球化」Globalization 的演進和「網際網路」Internet 的流行，讓我們在1993 年之後，學英語比以前方便多了，應用上也更加廣泛。台灣要達成「 年雙語國家」的目標，首要條件是﹕鼓勵全民熱誠學英語! 本書藉台北捷運「R 淡水信義線」的27 站，來勾勒English 的全貌，前17 站為「英語打地基」; 後10 站為「英文蓋高樓」，全程坐完，英語暢通。 順帶一提，世界最有名的愛因斯坦(Albert Einstein,1879~1955) 簡單開場白Opening Speech ﹕3公式：E = MC² → E 能量=M 質量 x C 真空光速的平方(300K Km/s)，這公式竟然也是我的英語學習理念：「英語實力= 英語+ 知識)」→ English = Making Capability² (Spoken + Written English)，真有意思! 學

The pandemic left disorder and crises in its wake everywhere it struck. Drawing on disciplines including public health, politics, and socioeconomics, this book tracks the spread of COVID-19 to weave a coherent picture that explains how scientists learnt about the virus, how authorities reacted around the world, and how different societies coped.

The best-selling low-budget filmmaker's bible in the UK has now, at long last, been totally revamped for the American market. The two authors have interviewed hundreds of film industry insiders, resulting in, without doubt, the most comprehensive, entertaining, information-packed book available in America on how to produce a low-budget movie. The book has 3 main sections: Anatomy of a Movie, Case Studies, and The Toolkit. Anatomy of a Movie features in-depth, candid interviews with a huge cast of people already working in the film industry - from script readers to bank managers; from casting directors to costume providers; and from sound mixers to negative cutters. Case Studies tells the stories of a selection of low-budget movies, and how they were made. These include Chris and Genevieve's own films, as well as international successes like The Blair Witch Project and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The Toolkit is an amazing resource for new filmmakers, incorporating a huge range

聯想單字記憶術：擺脫背一個忘一個的惡夢，讓你單字combo十連發！ 你是不是也有這種痛苦回憶： 翻開單字書，從A-Z背完一頁又一頁的單字，回過頭卻發現前面記的早就忘光。更糟的是那些長得像、意思又差一點點的單字，總是讓自己頭昏眼花。 花了很多時間在「努力記」，卻根本「記不住」。這本書，就是為了解救所有「背了又忘、記了又亂」的苦主而誕生！由一推十，開啟字群聯想模式 本書採用「聯想單字記憶術」，從一個「核心單字」出發，從一個單字出發，根據「拼字結構」、「詞根詞綴」、「語意關聯」，一路向外延伸擴展，把有關連的單字串在一起，一次幫你搞懂整個單字家族。• 拼字類似的單字：例如詞根「able」可以延伸出capable（有能力的）、disable（使無能為力）、enable（使能夠）這些拼字類似的單字。• 詞綴相關的單字：例如以詞綴「capa-」或「dis-」為基礎，可以延伸出 capacity（容量）、capability（能力）、disability（殘疾）、disable（使無法）• 意義相近或相反的單字：例如capability（能力）和ability（能力）這兩個單字在意思上很接近，可能在語境中可以互換。 藉由聯想的方式，每一個單字在結構和意義上彼此緊密關聯，就像六邊形的蜂巢，一層一層有規律、有邏輯地往外延伸，讓單字再也不是只從A排到Z，而是成為有關係、有系統、可延伸的字群網絡。易混淆單字比一比 有些單字明明中文意思都差不多，用在句子裡卻老是卡關、感覺怪怪的？其實就算單字的中文翻譯一模一樣，在英文用法裡也可能大不同！ 例如watch、look、see這三個單字雖然都跟「看」有關，但在適用範圍卻有著微妙的差異。在這裡，我們細心整理語意相近或相反的單字，藉由示範例句，詳細拆解它們的適用情境，讓你一眼分辨，從此不再搞錯。

Monocle has always been a champion of taking it slow. It has encouraged readers to dive into a lake and go for a run. To sleep well. To eat food whose makers are proud of its provenance. In a shouty, jabbing-finger moment in history, it has done its bit to argue for a new modern etiquette to be generous with our time, hospitality and forgiveness. Now its editors and correspondents have brought all of this together in The Monocle Manifesto for a Gentler Life, a book that urges us all to slow down, reconnect, make good things and see nice places. And it also knows when to wear a cheeky smile. Chapters include:• An illustrated guide to being nice, respecting your neighbour and controlling your social media rants.• Profiles of the happiest nations – and the least lonely too.• How to build a house that’s good for you and your family.• Essays from leading thinkers and great writers on what we can gain if we shift gear.• The businesses charting a better course – from management to pride in pr
