第一則：京華城案一審重判 萬名小草集結凱道聲援柯文哲
民眾黨 3 月 29 日在凱達格蘭大道舉辦集會聲援柯文哲，針對其京華城案一審重判 17 年，黃國昌號召支持者上街，主打司法改革並批評程序失衡。
民眾黨稱現場「小草」超過萬人，柯文哲喊話決不屈服；然而，現場仍有不同意見者舉旗表態相反看法，過程中一度出現口角，經糾察人員協調後未擴大衝突。
Heavy Sentence in Jinghua City Case, Supporters Flood Ketagalan Boulevard for Mass Rally
On March 29, the TPP held a Ketagalan Boulevard rally backing Ko Wen-je after his 17-year first-trial sentence in the Jinghua City case, as Huang Kuo-chang pushed judicial reform and criticized procedural unfairness.
The TPP said more than 10,000 “Little Grass” supporters joined the rally, while Ko Wen-je said he would never surrender. However, some people at the scene also raised flags to show opposing views. A brief argument broke out, but it was quickly brought under control after event staff stepped in.
第二則：美跨黨派訪團抵台 呼籲盡速通過 400 億美元國防預算
美國參議院跨黨派訪團 3 月 30 日抵台，將拜會賴清德總統與朝野人士，盼在 400 億美元國防預算攻防之際，促請立法院盡速通過國防特別預算。
目前國防特別條例仍待協商，國民黨稱符合需求且美方願意核發發價書就支持，民進黨重申國防自主，外交部強調面對中國施壓，將持續提升自我防衛、維持現狀。
U.S. Senate Delegation Arrives in Taiwan, Presses Legislature on US$40 Billion Defense Budget
A U.S. bipartisan delegation arrived in Taiwan on March 30 to meet with Lai Ching-te and lawmakers, urging quick passage of the special budget bill amid debate over the US$40 billion defense budget.
The special defense budget is still under negotiation. The KMT said it will support the bill if it meets Taiwan’s needs and the U.S. is willing to issue a letter of offer and acceptance, while the DPP reaffirmed the importance of defense self-reliance. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs added that, amid pressure from China, Taiwan will continue strengthening its self-defense and maintaining the status quo.
第三則：油價飆升擋不住！中油第三度調漲扛 70 億成本
中油宣布於 3 月 30 日起汽柴油每公升分別調漲 1.7 元與 1.5 元，受美伊戰事升溫、荷姆茲海峽受阻與能源設施遇襲影響，國際油價續飆，汽油本月累計已漲三次。
為穩定物價，政府與中油已啟動專案平穩機制，戰事以來累計吸收近 70 億元成本，行政院研議專案融資已降低中油財務壓力，後續將視油價波動適時調整補貼。
Oil Surge Won’t Stop! CPC Raises Prices for the Third Time, Absorbs NT$7 Billion
Starting March 30, gasoline and diesel prices were raised by NT$1.70 and NT$1.50 per liter by CPC. As U.S.-Iran tensions, Strait of Hormuz disruptions, and attacks on energy facilities pushed global oil prices higher, this marked the third gasoline price hike this month.
To stabilize prices, a special mechanism has been launched by the government and CPC, absorbing nearly NT$7 billion since the conflict began. Special financing is being considered to ease CPC’s burden, with subsidies adjusted based on future oil price changes.
第四則：連執行長也可能被 AI 取代？科技業掀討論
Google 執行長在接受英國廣播公司採訪時表示，未來 AI 甚至可能接手執行長的部分工作。AI 將淘汰部分職位，同時也會讓許多工作出現轉型。
調查顯示，有 49% 的執行長認為，多數工作未來可以由 AI 自動化。不過輝達執行長黃仁勳則表示，AI 雖然能提升效率，但目前仍無法完全取代人類管理者，科技界對此仍存在不同看法。
Could AI Replace CEOs? Tech Industry Debates the Future
Google’s CEO said in an interview with the BBC that artificial intelligence may one day take over some of the work of a company’s chief executive. He said AI will replace some jobs while also changing and transforming many others.
A survey shows that 49 percent of CEOs believe most of their work could be automated by AI in the future. However, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that although AI can greatly improve efficiency, it still cannot fully replace human leaders at this stage. Different opinions about AI replacing top management continue to appear in the tech industry.
第五則：別再不自覺說「但是」！戒除否定詞習慣學會停頓的藝術
日常對話中，人們常不自覺以「不是」、「沒有」或「但是」等否定詞開頭，甚至突然提高音量。即使沒有惡意，這種回應方式仍可能讓聽者感到被攻擊，無形中也會加劇負面情緒，進而影響溝通氛圍與人際關係。
專家表示，改善此現象需留意自身語氣並用肯定詞替代，若對話中想以「但是」反駁，可先短暫停頓，讓交流更順暢。
Stop Saying the Word “BUT” All the Time! Learn the Art of Pausing in Conversation
In everyday conversations, people often start their responses with negative words such as “no,” “not,” or “but,” and may even suddenly raise their voices. Even without bad intentions, this way of responding can make listeners feel attacked and increase negative emotions, affecting the tone of communication and relationships.
Experts say people should pay attention to their tone and replace negative words with more positive ones. When they feel the urge to reply with “but” during a conversation, taking a short pause first can help make communication smoother.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.
More than 10,000 supporters joined the TPP rally for Ko Wen-je as a short dispute with opposing groups was quickly resolved.
Taiwan’s defense budget remained under discussion as visiting U.S. senators encouraged swift legislative approval.
Escalating tensions around the Strait of Hormuz drove another fuel price hike, while the government moved to reduce pressure through subsidies.
Google’s CEO said AI may one day handle parts of a CEO’s job, though some tech leaders say it still cannot fully replace human leadership.
Starting replies with words like “but” or “no” can make others feel attacked, while pausing and using more positive language helps improve communication.
In the next episode, we will together explore the recent hot news with you in the morning. Don’t forget to come back. Have a nice day and hear me next time. Bye.
