《閱讀國際時事新聞，學習九個職場時事英文》
幫助忙碌上班族每日花20-30分鐘，閱讀歐美新聞網站英文標題，學習將時事新聞應用於中英文雙語工作環境，是我每日努力將國際英文新聞介紹給華人閱讀的初心。幫助華人上班族將每日在電視新聞台聽到的國際新聞，找到相關歐美英文報導出處，是幫助國人靈活運用時事英文與每日職場中的最有效的學習工具。
My original intention for introducing international English news to Chinese readers is to help busy working professionals spend 20-30 minutes daily reading English headlines from Western news websites and learn how to apply current events in bilingual Chinese-English work environments. Helping Chinese professionals find the original English sources from Western media for international news they hear on TV news channels is the most effective learning tool for helping them flexibly apply current events English in their daily workplace.
