core核心畫面

You can picture 'topic' as the single thing a conversation or a piece of writing is pointing at — the one subject everyone's words gather around, like a label on a folder that says 'this is what we're talking about here.'

可以想成:把一場談話或一篇文章想像成大家圍著的一個東西,topic 就是那個被指著的東西——所有的話都繞著它打轉。像資料夾上貼的一張標籤,寫著「這裡講的就是這件事」。
