Parking peeves: Is it better to pull in or back into a parking space? Mass. residents weigh in
Boston 25 News
“We call them “backerinners.” As opposed to the more traditional way of parking, going in nose-first with the front of the car, backerinners are more and more prevalent these days.”
感恩節那一陣子的新聞。因為是購物熱潮,而 backerinners 因為需要多花些時間停車,因此會在停車場造成像上頭影片那樣的阻塞。說實在的,我一般是避開購物熱潮,所以我沒注意到這種現象。平常的話就算在停車時遇到前頭的車在那邊「倒車入庫」也只是多等一會,也不常遇到,所以這不是問題。但是一般人要購物熱潮期間去賣場購物需要停車時,情況就不一樣了。
圖片下方說明有這字樣: Additional charge may be applied for strong Rx ....
"Rx"是prescription的縮寫,整句用我們的(台灣)中文說法來講的話相當於「度數深者價格另計(*1)」。
(*1) 原意思是說度數深的話會加價,但是相同情況下我們(台灣)會用意思較隱晦的「價格另計」來說,至少這造成的衝擊性比直接跟顧客講「我們要另外多收錢喔」要和緩些。

+ How do I get thinner lenses?The lens that is preselected as a recommended option in ② Your Lenses during the ordering process will be the best option for your Rx. If you have a strong Rx, a higher lens index number will give you a thinner lens.
美國賣場很容易看到的賣老花(遠視)眼鏡的架子。在那牌字樣下方有標示數字「度數(我們的說法)」。比如 +1.75 相當於台灣眼鏡行講的(遠視)一百七十五度,然後 +1.75 數子正下方有這度數的老花鏡片。想買老花眼鏡的人可以用這鏡片去看後方的字樣,能看的清楚的就是你的度數(THAT'S YOUR STRENGTH)。
近視眼鏡的話,比如 -5.0 就相當我們講的五百度。
