皆さんは、日本のミュージシャンの「松任谷由実」さんを知っていますか？
私が高校生の頃から好きな歌手です。
今流れている曲も松任谷由実さんの曲で私がピアノで弾いています。
彼女は「ユーミン」と呼ばれていて、今年デビュー50周年を迎えたベテランのミュージシャンです。
シンガソングライターで、自分で詩を書き、作曲し、歌っています。
去年50周年記念で出したアルバムは売り上げ1位を獲得し、
１９７０年代、８０年代、９０年代、２０００年代、2010年代、２０２０年代の六つの年代でアルバムの売り上げ１位を記録しました。
これは日本で初めての記録です。
今日はユーミンさん曲の中の一つの詩を紹介します。

海を見ていた午後

あなたを思い出す この店に来るたび
坂を上って きょうもひとり来てしまった
山手のドルフィンは静かなレストラン
晴れた午後には 遠く三浦岬も見える
ソーダ水の中を 貨物船がとおる
小さなアワも恋のように消えていった

The afternoon I saw the sea
When I come to this store, I remember you
Today I came alone going up the hill2
The Yamate dolphin is a quiet restaurant
On the sunny afternoons, the Miura cape is seen in the distance
A cargo ship crosses the soda water
A small bubble faded like love

누나, 이번 주에 할머니 팔순 생신인데, 선물 뭐 사드리면 좋을까?
姐姐, 这周是奶奶的八十大寿, 买点儿什么礼物好呢? 

얼마 전에 할머니가 침대 필요하다고 하셨어.
前几天奶奶跟我说需要一张床。

그럼 우리 돈 모아서 침대 사드리자.
那我们攒钱给她买张床吧。 

그래, 할머니 피부 알레르기가 있으니까, 편백나무 침대로 사드리자.
好, 她的皮肤有点儿过敏, 我们买张扁柏木床吧。

팔순 생신 八十大寿
돈을 모으다 攒钱
침대가 필요하다 需要床
알레르기, 알러지 过敏
편백나무 침대 扁柏木床

她是谁？ Who is She？

At a Hollywood studio this October, Tesla unveiled its long-awaited robotaxi, though fans of the electric vehicle maker will have to wait until at least 2026 before it is available.

CEO Elon Musk pulled up to a stage in one of the company's "Cybercabs," telling the crowd that the AI-powered vehicles don't have steering wheels or pedals.

He also expressed confidence in the progress the company has made on autonomous driving technology that makes it possible for vehicles to drive without human intervention.

Tesla began selling the software, which is called "Full Self-Driving," nine years ago. But there are doubts about its reliability.

"We'll move from supervised Full Self-Driving to unsupervised Full Self-Driving, where you can fall asleep and wake up at your destination," he said.

Tesla expects the Cybercabs to cost under $30,000, Musk said. He estimated that the vehicles would become available "before 2027."

The company also expects to make the Full Self-Driving technology available on its popular Model 3 and Model Y vehicles in Texas and California next year.

However, shares of Tesla Inc fell not long after the unveiling — investors don't see a clear timeline for the rollout of the Cybercabs, while other companies are already using similar technology.

"Tesla yet again claimed it is a year or two away from actual automated driving — just as the company has been claiming for a decade," Bryant Walker Smith, a University of South Carolina law professor who studies automated vehicles, told The Associated Press.

Tesla's announcement comes as US safety regulators are investigating Full Self-Driving and Autopilot based on evidence that it has a weak system for making sure human drivers pay attention.

Last April near Seattle, a Tesla using Full Self-Driving hit and killed a motorcyclist, authorities said. The Tesla driver told authorities that he was using the system while looking at his phone when the car hit the motorcyclist from behind.
