All that and more, coming up next.
寄居蟹放鬆脫殼 漫步找新家 Hermit Crabs Enjoy Empty Beaches
Picture a hermit crab (寄居蟹).
Do you think of a little crab-like animal with a shell (貝殼) on its back?
But what does a hermit crab look like without a shell?
Hermit crabs live close to water.
They keep most of their body in a shell, to stay safe.
If they do not have a shell, it would be very easy for a bird or a bigger animal to eat them.
And when hermit crabs grow bigger, their old shell gets to be too small for them.
They will leave their old shell and find a bigger new shell to live in.
This can be a very dangerous time for hermit crabs.
Usually, the hermit crab will make the switch (替換) very quickly, or they might get hurt when they are outside of their shell.
Lots of hermit crabs live on the beaches of Xiaoyeliu (小野柳) in Taitung.
Because of COVID-19, there were almost no people on the beaches there over the summer.
And this has made the hermit crabs very relaxed!
A video was posted online, showing a hermit crab walking around without a shell.
The hermit crab slowly looks for a new shell, and feels many different shells with its front legs.
It goes back and forth a few times before choosing its perfect shell.
Then finally, it gets in and makes the shell its new home.
通常寄居蟹換殼會快速幾秒鐘完成，因為全身暴露在外有很大的風險，不過疫情讓小野柳遊客變少，讓當地的寄居蟹放鬆脫殼，悠閒地挑選新螺殼。
大陸防未成年者沉迷電玩 平日禁打、假日只能玩1小時 China Bans Kids Videogames on Weekdays
Playing video games too much can be bad for you.
Staring at a screen for a long time is bad for your eyes, and you won't get much exercise (運動).
Now in China, the government is taking a big step to control how long people play video games.
China's government says children under 18 years old may not play any video games Mondays to Thursdays.
And they may only play one hour, from 8pm to 9pm on Fridays, weekends, and holidays.
And this is for games on cell phones, tablets, and computers.
中國大陸為了預防青少年沈迷電玩，公佈了新規定，未成年人在週末和假日時只能玩一小時遊戲，非假日都不可以玩。
Do you think this is a good idea?
Actually, China already had limits on game time.
In 2019, the government said children could only play 90 minutes on weekdays, and three hours on weekends.
Officials say this is to make sure young people don't get addicted (上癮) to gaming.
But how do they know how long you have played?
The government says people who play games online must use their real name to open an account.
And gaming companies can only let young people play from 8pm to 9pm on Fridays, weekends, and holidays.
Players under 18 years old will not be able use their account on school nights.
大陸政府規定使用者必須用實名註冊與登錄遊戲，未成年的玩家只有禮拜五、周末、還有國定假日的晚上8點到9點才可以玩。
