金鲤鱼与又称鲤鱼。淡水鱼，常见于江河里。
锦鲤是一种彩色鲤鱼，因其鱼体表面色彩鲜艳、花色似锦，故得其名。
锦鲤是红色鲤鱼的变种。我国饲养红鲤作为观赏鱼在明代已非常普及。红鲤传入日本后，日本人在饲养过程中发现这种鲤鱼会发生色变，根据红鲤容易变异的特点，经过选种，人工改良为绯鲤，培育出许多新品种，初称"色鲤"、"花鲤"，后改称"锦鲤"。

因为单词用的是goldfish，所以我认为就是国人说的那种家里鱼缸养的小金鱼，而鲤鱼是另一个单词carp。

是日英語學習：Notary Certificate和Certified copy
因填寫929表格遇到問題，求助於百度。經高人指點，大致弄清兩詞組的含義。附上鏈接。

公证处出具的公证书叫做Notary Certificate，具有法律效力的证明文件。
Notary Public Office 公证处。公证处是国家公证机关。除了見證原件與複印件一致外，還要辨其真偽吧。

Certified copy是证明复印件是用原件复印的一种证明文件。感覺是在複印件上簽字即可。一文件兩個名字。
俺的理解就是，只證明復印件與原件一致，不證明原件真偽。
在澳洲，要你提供Certified copy部門會指定個人或機構對你的複印件作證，最簡單就是找圖書館裡的ＪＰ搞定。
在中國，似沒什麼明文規定，似乎街道，單位等部門也可開出類似的證明。涉外的話，最穩妥還是去公證處吧。

如理解錯誤，敬請指正。

赞！！

补充一下，据警察局相关人员说明，Certified Copy就是证明复印件和纸质原件一致的，如果一份文件只有电子版，是做不了Certified copy的。

是日英語學習：Canberra　堪培拉
另一個定都堪培拉的故事。
Canberra was built as a halfway point between Melbourne and Sydney
but … why wasn't it built on the coast?Why is it so far inland?
It's a very complex story,it's not just a question about where it was built but why it exists at all.
It took federal politicians more than a decade to agree on the site for Australia's capital.
堪培拉位於悉市與墨市中途。但是，為什麼不在沿海建都，為什麼要跑到內陸那旮旯。
其中的情節相當複雜。已經遠遠超出建在哪個旮旯的問題，而是為什麼會有這麼個東西。政客們耗十餘年心力才解決該問題。

The 100 mile(160km) rule　一百英里條文
Before the Constitution was estalblished, towns all over Australia were vying to be the capital.
Canberra's location was determined, in part, by section 125 of the Constitution:
"The seat of Government of the Commonwealth … shall be in the State of New South Wales, and be distant not less than one hundred miles　from Sydney."
憲法沒明文規定之前，所有城市都希望成為首都。之所以定址堪培拉，部分歸因為後來的憲法第125條：聯邦政府選址......應於新州境內，距悉市不得少於100英里。

Five other factors that played a part
其它五個影響選址的重要因素：
Fear of disease　瘟疫
   The feeling was you head inland to get away from the worst excesses of plagues.
Enemies at sea　從海上來犯之敵
   So many cities in the world had been subject to ships coming in and … blasting away with a cannon
The freezing cold was seen as a plus　寒冷天氣加分
   The history of the world shows that cold climates produce the greatest geniuses.
Water　供水
    It was water supply rather than being near the water,
A White Australia　白澳
    There isn't much at Cameron Corner but that was put forward seriously in 1894 where ... a whites-only capital would happen,

卡梅伦角
Cameron Corner, Australia, the geodetic point at which the states of Queensland, New South Wales and South Australia meet

上回說了金鯉魚，這回說的是紅炎蟻。
Queensland's $400m fire ant extermination effort 'undermined by rainfall, manure'（新聞標題）
遇天雨與牛糞，昆州4億大元滅蟻大業或打水漂
天雨：
"Farmers have reported back to us that they've seen the helicopters spreading bait over their properties while it's been raining."　"The minute [the bait] gets wet, [the ants] won't touch it,"
農民反饋看見直升機在農場上空投放誘餌，而當時天正下著雨。誘餌一旦受潮，螞蟻根本不去碰它。
牛糞
"They were flying around and picking up all these warm spots on the ground … [Biosecurity Queensland] sent teams out to inspect it and they came up with warm piles of cow manure."
直升機在空中盤旋偵緝地面熱點，然後派人現場核查，發現，只是一堆堆的牛糞。

Fire ants火蚁是一种蚁科动物，大约有266个物种，其中最知名的为入侵紅火蟻Red Fire Ant
Fire ants are native to South America and have been observed in Australia since 2001 and has spread from the Lockyer Valley to the Gold Coast.
Their stings are painful, and can be lethal in rare cases.
They are highly predatory, consume small livestock like lambs and chickens and undermine entire crops　and can have damaging effects on ecosystems they are introduced to.

是日英語學習："Do not resuscitate"
很奇特的不搶救要求。很特別的處理過程。
事情發生在美國in Miami, Florida。似有太多的負能量，但也確實是想過的問題，因此摘錄下來。
The man arrived at the hospital unconscious, without identification, with a high blood alcohol level.
He was 70, had a history of lung disease, heart problems and diabetes, and three words tattooed in big, black letters across his chest: "Do not resuscitate".
Doctors at the Jackson Memorial Hospital weren't sure how to proceed.
"We initially decided not to honour the tattoo, invoking the principle of not choosing an irreversible path when faced with uncertainty,... ...an ethics consultation was requested."
After reviewing the case, the ethics consultants advised the doctors to honour the man's "do not resuscitate" tattoo.
The man's health deteriorated, and he later died, without being resuscitated.

在医药版的最上面有澳洲的一些医疗文件
其中就有NFR not for resuscitation = Do not resuscitate

可能文化和信仰不同，东方人对于死亡是非常畏惧，有时候面对死亡的时候，家属大部分时候要求医生采取一切手段挽救患者生命，其实很多时候采取多余的措施可能会给患者躯体带来更大的损伤.
西方人对待死亡，平和了很多.每次患者住院的时候，都要谈论心跳呼吸骤停时候的抢救措施，很多病情非常重的患者，本人或者家属都会选 NFR/DNR 生命最终的时候，会给麻醉和止痛药，让患者慢慢死亡.同时要求牧师给患者读经节.当死亡来临的时候，绝大部分家属都会平和地接受死亡的现实，没有哭泣，更多的是眼含泪水.

是日英語學習：Mosquito coils 蚊香
近日天氣炎熱，傍晚戶外聊天也不禁手舞足蹈，似是另類廣場舞。傳統的避蚊大法就是點蚊香了。
Do mosquito coils really work? And are they bad for your health?（文章標題）
蚊香有用嗎，蚊香於健康有害嗎。
They're generally effective at reducing mosquito bites.
One study estimated the particulate matter produced from burning one mosquito coil was equivalent to burning 75-137 cigarettes.
一般來說，蚊香能有效防止蚊叮。有研究估算，一盤蚊香燃燒後產生的微粒物质相當於燃燒75-137支香煙產生的物質。
but there is a lack of clear evidence that the long-term exposure to mosquito coil smoke increases the risk of more serious health impacts, such as lung cancer.
但目前仍無證據表明長期使用蚊香會使健康惡化，例如患上肺癌。
In Australia, all products that purport to kill or repel mosquitoes must be registered by the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority. Check the packaging for a registration number.
Recently consumer products have been made available in Australia that contain the insecticide Metofluthrin, an insecticide shown to hold great potential for managing mosquito-borne disease.
在澳洲，所有用於驅殺蚊子的產品都必須在澳洲農畜藥品局註冊。請檢查包裝上有否註冊號。新型滅蚊藥已在澳洲出售，其主要成份為甲氧苄氟菊酯，一種能滅殺蚊子體內自帶病菌的殺蟲劑，並可深入研發。
