Under the development program, three nuclear power plants will be set up in northern and southern Taiwan. | 根據台灣核能發電方案，核能發電廠共造三座，分別設在台灣省北部及南部。 |
While the total investment cost of a nuclear power plant is higher than that of an oil-fired station, the long-range fuel costs will be 60 % cheaper than that of a conventional thermal project. The overall production cost for a nuclear power station is much more economical in the long run. | 當然，核能發電的建廠成本較高，但是經常支出的燃料費要較燃油火力低廉百分之六十以上，所以就長遠來看，核能發電的成本是比較經濟的。 |
Beauty Beyond Taroko Gorge Tien Hsiang, a small basin in a valley of eastern Taiwan, is one of the major stations of the Central East-West Cross-Island Highway. | 「天祥」，四面環山，是山谷中的一個小盆地，也是東西橫貫公路中東段的一個大站，觀光旅遊的好去處。 |
Since the Highway was built, it has had another name--Tien Hsiang, in memory of Wen Tien-hsiang. He was a loyal official of the Sung dynasty (960-1279 A. D.). | 東西橫貫公路興建之後，始更名為「天祥」。以紀念宋朝名臣文天祥。 |
On the hill in front of Tien Hsiang, stand a temple and a seven-story pagoda. Nearby are the ancient-style Pagoda of Mencius 'Mother, the P'u-tu Suspension Bridge and the Chih-hui Iron Bridge. All those scenic spots add to the pictorial beauty. | 天祥對岸山丘上，有祥德寺和一座七層高的寶塔，矗立於群山之中，與古色古香的「孟母亭」，橫垮溪上的普渡吊橋、稚暉鐵橋構成一幅壯美的圖畫。 |
Another example is the Hung family. When the four daughters and mother put the father, who suffered from dementia, into a nursing facility, they were questioned by their neighbors: "With so many women in the family, you mean you can't take care of one old person?" | 另一個例子中，洪家 4 姊妹與媽媽將失智的老父親送去安養院時，遭到鄰居親友的質疑。「妳們家這麼多女人，難道還照顧不了一位老人家？」 |
"In the nursing home there are trained nursing staff to take care of him, what's wrong with that?" | 「安養院有專業的護理人員照顧，有什麼不好？」 |
With an elevation of 1995 meters (about 6485 feet), Tz'u En is 45 meters higher than Lishan in the western section of the Highway. | 慈恩海拔一千九百九十五公尺，比西段的梨山還高出四十五公尺。 |
Whether a writer likes a place or not, Yu believes that when you can sit down and write about a place, it means you are settled there. And being settled means that you are interacting with the place and that "in one sense the place has become yours!" | 不管喜歡或不喜歡，余光中認為，當作家能夠坐下來寫這個地方，就表示到位了，就位了，表示正在與這塊土地交流，「某種意義來講，這個地方就是你的了！」 |
Thus the creation of an adequate number of long-term care facilities of reliable quality is the direction in which many advanced countries are moving. | 因此，建立數量足夠和品質值得信賴的長期照護體系，已是許多先進國家努力的方向。 |
Alvarenga is Paraguay's first resident ambassador to the Republic of China since the two countries established diplomatic ties on the ambassadorial level in 1957. | 阿爾瓦林格大使是在十一月二十日下午抵華履新，他是巴拉圭自民國四十六年與我國建立大使級外交關係以來，第一位專任大使。 |
A diligent bodhisattva Perhaps as karmically fated, Huang has also developed an indissoluble bond with his Buddhist faith. In his later works, Buddhist pieces come to occupy a significant portion of his repertoire. | 精進篤行的音樂菩薩在因緣際會下，黃友棣與佛教也結下不解之緣，在晚近作品中，佛曲佔了不小的比例。 |
The research vessel "Hai Kung" of the Taiwan Fisheries Research Institute left Keelung on December 2 for the Antarctic Ocean. It is due to return in March-April of 1977. | 台灣省水產試驗所「海功」號試驗船，本月二日上午十時二十分自基隆港駛出，航向冰冷而又遙遠的南極，預定明年三月至四月初返國。 |
Crew members of the research vessel all said that they would work hard in completing their mission. | 全體工作人員臨行時表示，他們一定盡力來完成這項任務。 |
Huang feels that the quality of Buddhist music in the past has been uneven. As many composers of Buddhist music do not really understand the teachings, they are confused about many things and produce music that is likewise confused and off the mark. | 他認為，過去的佛曲品質參差不齊，許多作佛曲的人，不懂佛法，對各種名相搞不清楚，胡亂編曲，荒腔走板。 |
Scientists are putting laser beams to work as inspecting tools, in the Republic of China, as part of the government's big push to improve the quality of exported goods. The process is called "Holographic Non-destructive Testing (HNDT)." This new technique will be introduced for use by hardware manufacturers, tire manufacturers, electroplating factories and precision industries. | 在政府大力推動工業產品檢驗工作，提高我國外銷產品品質之時，國內科學界開拓了一項以雷射光作為檢驗工具的「全像攝影非破壞檢驗術」，並將提供此項技術，給予小五金業、輪胎業、電鍍業及精密工業，解決業者的困難。 |
