第一則：剴剴案定讞！虐童保母判無期徒刑
剴剴遭虐待致死案件，最高法院於 7 月 23 日駁回上訴，判處保母劉彩萱無期徒刑、褫奪公權終身，妹妹劉若琳有期徒刑 18 年。
法院認定，姐妹二人利用專業保母身分，長期對無反抗能力的幼童施以捆綁、毆打及餵食隔夜飯等非人道虐待，導致男童最終因為低血容性休克不治。兩人惡性重大，最高法院駁回上訴並維持原判決，全案定讞。
Kai-Kai Abuse Case Verdict Final! Babysitter Sentenced to Life Imprisonment
In the fatal abuse case of Kai-Kai, Taiwan’s Supreme Court rejected the appeals on July 23. Babysitter Liu Tsai-hsuan was sentenced to life in prison and deprived of civil rights for life, while her younger sister, Liu Jo-lin, was sentenced to 18 years in prison.
The court found that the two sisters used their status as professional babysitters to subject a defenseless young child to long-term inhumane abuse, including restraining him, beating him, and feeding him leftovers. The boy eventually died from hypovolemic shock. The Supreme Court ruled that the two women had committed a grave and cruel crime, rejected the appeals, upheld the original sentences, and finalized the case.
第二則：中國於臺灣海峽實彈射擊！台海和平再受衝擊
中國漳州海事局於 7 月 23 日無預警發布航行警告，宣布 23 日與 24 日兩天，在臺灣海峽部分海域進行實彈射擊，並劃設禁航區。
台灣外交部嚴正譴責，表示中國片面升高區域緊張，對飛航與船隻航行造成高度風險，也破壞台海和平穩定。外交部呼籲中國理性自制，立即停止軍事挑釁與灰色地帶侵擾。
China Holds Live-Fire Drills in the Taiwan Strait, Raising New Concerns Over Peace
China’s Zhangzhou Maritime Safety Administration issued an unexpected navigation warning on July 23. It announced that live-fire drills would be held in parts of the Taiwan Strait on July 23 and July 24, with a no-sail zone set up during the exercises.
Taiwan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemned the move, saying China had unilaterally raised regional tensions and created serious risks for flights and ships. The ministry also said the drills damaged peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, and called on China to exercise rational self-restraint and immediately stop its military provocations and gray-zone intrusions.
第三則：南港到宜蘭只要 20 分鐘！高鐵宜蘭站預計 2036 年通車
行政院於 7 月 23 日拍板通過高鐵延伸至宜蘭的計畫，核定總經費共 3,521 億元。該計畫路線全長 60.6 公里，預計最快於 2029 年動工，並於 2036 年通車。
行政院發言人李慧芝表示，此計畫是環島鐵路網願景的一環。未來通車後，南港至宜蘭僅需 20 分鐘，台北至花蓮的交通時間也將大幅縮短至 90 分鐘。
Nangang to Yilan in Just 20 Minutes! Yilan High-Speed Rail Station Set to Open in 2036
Taiwan’s Executive Yuan approved the plan to extend the high-speed rail line to Yilan on July 23, with a total budget of NT$352.1 billion. The planned route will be 60.6 kilometers long. Construction is expected to begin as early as 2029, and the line is expected to open in 2036.
Executive Yuan spokesperson Michelle Lee said the project is part of the vision for the round-island railway network. After the line opens, travel time from Nangang to Yilan will take only 20 minutes, while the trip from Taipei to Hualien will also be greatly shortened to 90 minutes.
第四則：早餐店瘋做 App 數位轉型成生存關鍵
近年越來越多連鎖早餐品牌推出 App、掃碼點餐與會員系統，希望透過數位工具提升營運效率與顧客回購率。業界指出，早餐店長期面臨低單價、低毛利困境，在成本持續上升下，數位轉型已從加分題變成必修課。
大型連鎖品牌將透過會員經營與精準行銷提高獲利，小型業者朝特色化與專業化發展。如何擺脫價格競爭，已成為早餐產業的重要課題。
Breakfast Shops Turn to Apps as Digital Transformation Becomes Essential for Survival
More and more chain breakfast brands are introducing apps, QR code ordering, and membership systems to improve operating efficiency and increase customer loyalty. Industry experts said that breakfast shops have long faced the challenges of low prices and low profit margins. As costs continue to rise, digital transformation has become a necessity rather than an option.
Large chain brands are expected to increase profits through membership programs and targeted marketing, while smaller businesses are moving toward specialization and unique products. Industry experts believe that breaking away from price competition has become a key challenge for the breakfast industry.
第五則：耗時 144 年的奇蹟！巴塞隆納聖家堂主體結構完工
2026 年適逢建築大師高第逝世 100 週年，而高第設計的天主教教堂聖家堂，在歷經了 144 年的施工後，主體結構終於正式完工。
雖然三大立面之一的「榮耀立面」與裝飾細節仍要到 2034 年才會完成，但主體的完工已引爆全球焦點。樂高積木甚至推出聖家堂模型向高第致敬，以 12,060 個積木重現這棟建築，為史上最多零件的樂高模型。
