Terrible Traitors is a horrible compendium of the worst traitors in history. Were they really all bad? You decide.The master of making history fun, Terry Deary, tells the tales of fifty brutal betrayals across history. Did you know that the oldest story in the world is about the traitor Enkidu, who dared to rise up against King Gilgamesh? You might already know about Caesar and his unfaithful senators, but have you heard about Walter Tirel, the Norman knight who went out hunting with King William the Conqueror? Well, only one man returned. Walter claimed it was an accident, but he had a pretty good track record with his aim...There have always been people who are willing to switch sides, let down a friend, betray their country and turn traitor. Sometimes they do it for love, often because of their beliefs, maybe out of pride . perhaps even greed. (And sometimes just for fun.) Nothing could ever make you become a traitor though . could it?Fully illustrated throughout and packed with hor

2012諾貝爾文學獎得主──莫言，最重要的長篇代表作之一肆意揮灑奇崛想像力、將荒誕魔幻發展到極致的作品「莫言將夢幻寫實主義與民間故事、歷史和當代社會合而為一。」──諾貝爾獎委員會The Nobel Prize in Literature 2012 was awarded to Mo Yan "who with hallucinatory realism merges folk tales, history and the contemporary".瘋狂與理智掙扎的記錄。本書除了是一部家族的歷史，也是一個作家的精神歷史。這本書是我於一九八七至一九八九年間陸續完成的。書中表達了我渴望通過吃草淨化靈魂的強烈願望，表達了我對大自然的敬畏與膜拜，表達了我對蹼膜的恐懼，表達了我對性愛與暴力的看法，表達了我對傳說和神話的理解，當然也表達了我的愛與恨，袒露了我的靈魂，醜的和美的，光明的和陰晦的…… ──莫言 這本書是莫言肆意揮灑奇崛想像力的長篇小說，堪稱華語文學中將荒誕夢幻發展到極致的作品；全書透過六個荒誕又密切關聯的夢境，表達出莫言對高密東北鄉食草家族的想像與嚮往。莫言認為最原始的人類應該是食草動物，據說食草家族的人單純善良又美好，他們由於每天吃草，牙齒特別白，嘴裡常帶一股草的清香……；他們只是吃草，對於自然沒有過高的要求，沒有太大的野心，遇到天災會寄託於神的庇佑，但是也會靠自己的力量去面對……；但他們也會有恐懼、暴力、復仇與醜陋的欲望……。小說以高密東北鄉為背景，描寫生活在貧瘠而又富饒的土地上，人們與大自然的關係、人與人之間的生存關係。歷史與現實，人為與自然，全書融合視覺、味覺、觸覺與魔幻荒誕的想像，濃墨重彩兼之天馬行空，令人驚歎。是莫言肆意揮灑奇崛想像力的極致作品。

賀！本書多次榮登金石堂暢銷榜！ ◎依新課綱編寫‧主題分類題庫 ◎大量模擬試題‧增強實戰經驗 ◎歷屆試題收錄‧重點解析精華 本書依據108課綱編寫，特別為參加統測的同學設計一系列的題目，包含主題式實力加強題庫、全範圍綜合模擬考及近年試題彙編，全新編寫適合新課綱素養的各類題型，讓本書不僅提供完整的考試題型，而更加豐富、靈活，讓你面對多變的考題，也能游刃有餘。如能仔細練習這些題目，必能熟悉各種出題情境，迅速解題獲得高分。希望藉由本書的題目，能讓同學在升學考試方面得到助益。 數位科技概論與應用的範圍太廣，所以有很多不同的名詞需要熟記，而且數位科技概論與應用是一門日新月異的科學，隨時都會有新的名詞出來。要特別注意一些容易混淆的縮寫簡稱，像是GPS全球衛星定位系統（Global Position System, 簡稱GPS）、UPS不斷電系統（Uninterruptable Power Supply，簡稱UPS）及AR（擴增實境）、VR（虛擬實境）。雖然只差一個英文字母，但所指的東西卻完全不同。但是同學們不用害怕，考試不會考太艱難又不常見到的單字，只需要將常見的名詞記住，相信就可以駕輕就熟。 數位科技概論與應用中的硬體架構算是必考的題目之一，硬體指的就是看得到摸得到的東西，因此在日常生活的時候只要我們多去使用，就可以知道書本上指的東西到底是什麼，加深自己的印象，還有硬體的規格一定要很清楚，像是CPU 2.5GHz指的是CPU的時脈，硬碟的容量可以用MB、GB或是TB來計算等。 在軟體方面，最常考的是微軟所出的應用軟體，不管是在作業系統Windows系列，或是文書處理軟體像是Word、Excel等都是必考題，這些應用軟體不只在考試的時候相當重要，在之後就業也是必備的技能之一，要熟悉這些軟體就是要常去使用，多去學習，這樣才可以知道像是貼上檔案要用鍵盤中的Ctrl+V，Excel中的Average函數是用來算平均值等這些功能。 在數位科技概論與應用中，程式語言算是比較艱難的一部份，常考的題目以BASIC為最大宗，所以同學想要在程式語言部份拿高分，必須要深入去了解一些關於程式的定義，像是IF的架構、DO While ..Loop怎麼用等。 近代科技最大的突破大概就是網際網路的普及了，因為網路改變了我們許多生活的習慣，也帶來了很大的便利，這部分在數位科技概論與應用裡會不斷的更新，像是網路

In Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s Daredevil: Born Again, the comic’s titular hero has his life destroyed after his most menacing enemy learns his real identity. His attempts to rebuild his life and sanity result in one of the most gripping and impactful super hero storylines of all time. Released in 1986, the storyline is an extraordinary exploration of what happens when a hero’s identity is revealed, and his personal life completely annihilated. We see Daredevil reduced to the lowest depths in the character’s history, but we also follow his painstaking path toward redemption.This entry in MARVEL AGE OF COMICS explores Daredevil: Born Again’s gorgeous and unique artwork, the lasting impact of its story and art, and how it forever changed the ways super hero characters and their secret identities have functioned.

The Avengers was the comic book of the 1970s. From Civil Rights to Women’s Lib, battles for the soul of America became battles between super heroes. Writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby co-created the all-star group of six super heroes in September 1963. From there, just three main writers chronicled Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in that most turbulent of decades: Roy Thomas, Steve Englehart, and Jim Shooter, each with differing approaches. The Avengers quickly became the pivot around which the Marvel Universe turned. To look back through its issues is to get a crash course in ’70s pop culture. Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary run, Paul Cornell’s entry in the MARVEL AGE OF COMICS series explores how the Mighty Avengers became icons during a time of immense change and upheaval.
