Jane Addams(1860—1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams
helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区) by creating
shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the
Rachel Carson(1907—1964)
If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her
popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful
effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.
When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she
could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state
senator(参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the
deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.
Rosa Parks(1913—2005)
On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a
bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the

Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights

The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups. Silences may be thoughtful, or they ma
号
y be empty when a person has nothing to say. A silence in a conversation may also show stubborn
众
ness, uneasiness,or worry. Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfor
table; therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap(间隙) with conversation. Persons in other
公
cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person’s needs.
Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among peo
ple, just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do. Therefore, when a person from one of th
suddenly stops, what may be implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what
has been said before continuing. In these cultures, silence is a call for reflection.
Other cultures may use silence in other ways, particularly when dealing with conflicts among
people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power. For example, Russian,
French, and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic
under discussion. However, Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in
authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her. In still another use, persons
in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect, particularly to an elder or a person in
authority.
Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they
come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing. Nurses should recognize
their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient’s silence is not interrupted
too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily. A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of
silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other

cultures.
B. It promotes friendship.

Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His
constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was
delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His
presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would
infect(感染)other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who
had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, "But I’m just not creative."
"Oh, sure."
"So tell me one of your most interesting dreams." The student would tell something wildly

California condors are North America’s largest birds, with wing-length of up to 3 meters. In
the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning( 铅 中 毒 ) nearly drove them to dying out. Now,
electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.
In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild to be bred(繁殖). Since 1992,
there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over
Electrical lines have been killing them off. " As they go in to rest for the night, they just
don’t see the power lin es," says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the
gap between lines, resulting in electrocution(电死) if they touch two lines at once.
僧
So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas,

teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric
高
shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed birds died of electrocution. This has
Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of
“一
other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous
号
systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney( 肾 ) failures and death. So
condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium
众
EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to
公
pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.
Rideout’s team thinks that the California condors’ average survival time in the wild is now
just under eight years. " Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for
now," he says. "They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering
them. "

A. makes condors too nervous to fly
The college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and
the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of
adolescence, during which many of today’s students are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.
For previous generations, college was a decisive break from parental control; guidance and
support needed to come from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades,
however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and
social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework.
Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy
and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same
exploration and experimentation. This process involves " trying on " new ways of thinking
about oneself bother intellectually(在思维方面) and personally. While we should provide "safe
僧
spaces" within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority
中
views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning.
高
Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community(群
个
体) differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students
“一
rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the
Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up
众
against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If
公
acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined( 规 定 ) and controlled, the insensitive or
aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.
It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are
reasons to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency.
What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent’s desire for autonomy and their
understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement

Chimps (黑猩猩) will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their
号
territory. But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings, they have little instinct (本能) to
众
help one another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly
decline to share food with their children, who are able from a young age to gather their own food.
公
In the laboratory, chimps don’t naturally share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where
he can pull in one plate of food for himself or, with no greater effort, a plate that also provides
food for a neighbor in the next cage, he will pull at random — he just doesn’t care whether his
Human children, on the other hand, are naturally cooperative. From the earliest ages, they
desire to help others, to share information and to participate in achieving common goals. The
psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of experiments with
very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an unrelated adult with hands full
but naturally possessed in young children. One is that these instincts appear at a very young age
before most parents have started to train their children to behave socially. Another is that the
helping behaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded. A third reason is that social
intelligence develops in children before their general cognitive ( 认 知 的 ) skills, at least when
compared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomasello, the human children did no better than the
chimps on the physical world tests but were considerably better at understanding the social world.
The core of what children’s minds have and chimps’ don’t is what Tomasello calls shared
intentionality. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking. But
beyond that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to
僧
be part of a "we", a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.
A. have the instinct to help others B. know how to offer help to adults
C. know the world better than chimps D. trust adults with their hands full
El Niño, a Spanish term for "the Christ child," was named by South American fishermen who
noticed that the global weather pattern, which happens every two to seven years, reduced the
amount of fishes caught around Christmas. El Niño sees warm water, collected over several years
in the western Pacific, flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weaken, or
The weather effects, both good and bad, are felt in many places. Rich countries gain more
from powerful Niños, on balance, than they lose. A study found that a strong Niño in 1997-98
helped America’s economy grow by $15 billion, partly because of better agricultural harvests:

farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain. The total rise in agricultural incomes in rich

But in Indonesia extremely dry forests are in flames. A multi-year drought ( 干 旱 ) in
高
south-east Brazil is becoming worse. Though heavy rains brought about by El Niño may relieve
个
the drought in California, they are likely to cause surface flooding and other disasters.
“一
The most recent powerful Niño, in 1997-98, killed around 21,000 people and caused damage
worth $36 billion around the globe. But such Niños come with months of warning, and so much is
号
known about how they happen that governments can prepare. According to the Overseas
众
Development Institute (ODI), however, just 12% of disaster-relief funding in the past two decades
has gone on reducing risks in advance, rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards. This is
公
despite evidence that a dollar spent on risk-reduction saves at least two on reconstruction.
Simple improvements to infrastructure (基础设施) can reduce the spread of disease. Better
sewers (下水道) make it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of
bad stomach. Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left without food and medicine
after floods. According to a paper in 2011 by Mr Hsiang and co-authors, civil conflict is related to
El Niño’s harmful effects — and the poorer the country, the stronger the link. Though the
relationship may not be causal, helping divided communities to prepare for disasters would at least
reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing and wounding people. Since the poorest
are least likely to make up for their losses from disasters linked to El Niño, reducing their losses
needs to be the priority.

B. Droughts become more harmful than floods.

Not so long ago, most people didn’t know who Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was going to
become. She was just an average high athlete. There was every indication that she was just another
Jamaican teenager without much of a future. However, one person wanted to change this. Stephen
Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly-Ann at a track meet and was convinced that he had
seen the beginnings of true greatness. Her times were not exactly impressive, but even so, he
sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooked when
they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in his very
strict training sessions. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few years later at
Jamaica’s Olympic trials in early 2008, Shelly-Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in
僧
"Where did she come from?" asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she
中
must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again
高
without signs. But Shelly-Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder. At the
Beijing Olympics she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by
个
becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 metres Olympic gold. She did it again one
“一
year on at the World Championships in Berlin, becoming world champion with a time of 10.73 —
Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not come
众
about by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but
公
smooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica’s toughest inner-city communities known as
Waterhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and
two brothers. Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, is a really violent and
overpopulated place. Several of Shelly-Ann’s friends and family were caught up in the killings;
one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived. Sometimes her
family didn’t have enough to eat. She ran at the school championships barefooted because she
couldn’t afford shoes. Her mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete
herself as a young girl but, like so many other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her
first baby. Maxime’s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the
determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse’s roundabout of poverty.
One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track, and she
It didn’t take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse.
On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008, all those long, hard hours of work and commitment
finally bore fruit. The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty,
surrounded by criminals and violence, had written a new chapter in the history of sports.
But Shelly-Ann’s victory was far greater than that. The night she won Olympic gold in
Beijing, the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped.
The dark cloud above one of the world’s toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared

for a few days. "I have so much fire burning for my country," Shelly said. She plans to start a
foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. She

An Extension of the Human Brain
Other people can help us compensate for our mental and emotional deficiencies (欠缺), much
as a wooden leg can compensate for a physical deficiency. To be exact, other people can extend
our intelligence and help us understand and adjust our emotions. When another person helps us in
such ways, he or she is participating in what I’ve called a "social prosthetic (义肢的) system."
Such systems do not need to operate face-to-face, and it’s clear to me that the Internet is
expanding the range of my own social prosthetic systems. It’s already a big bank of many minds.
Even in its current state, the Internet has extended my memory and judgment.
Regarding memory: Once I look up something on the Internet, I don’t need to keep all the
僧
details for future use — I know where to find that information again and can quickly and easily do
so. More generally, the Internet functions as if it were my memory. This function of the Internet is

particularly striking when I’m writing; I’m no longer comfortable writing if I’m not connected to
高
the Internet. It’s become natural to check facts as I write, taking a minute or two to dip into
个
Regarding judgment: The Internet has made me smarter in matters small and large. For
example, when I’m writing a textbook, it has become second nature to check a dozen definitions
号
of a key term, which helps me dig into the core and understand its meaning. But more than that, I
now regularly compare my views with those of many others. If I have a "new idea," I now quickly
众
look to see whether somebody else has already thought of it, or something similar — and I then
公
compare what I think with what others have thought. This certainly makes my own views clearer.
Moreover, I can find out whether my reactions to an event are reasonable enough by reading about
These effects of the Internet have become even more striking since I’ve begun using a
smartphone. I now regularly pull out my phone to check a fact, watch a video, read weibo. Such
activities fill the spaces that used to be dead time (such as waiting for somebody to arrive for a
lunch meeting).
But that’s the upside(好处). The downside is that in those dead periods I often would let my
thoughts flow and sometimes would have an unexpected insight or idea. Those opportunities are

A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.
To my mother, the poem revealed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves.
To me, the " she " in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so
terrible I burst out crying.
"What’s wrong?" my mother asked.
She smiled. "Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll
still love you, okay?"
"Okay," I was still weeping. My panic has gone. But I could not help thinking about that
silly poem. After what seemed like a safe amount of time, I read the poem again and was
confused. It all fit so well together, like a puzzle. The language was simple, so simple I could
plainly understand its meaning, yet it was still beautiful. I was now fascinated by the idea of
poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but "Patty Poem" remains my poem. After
all, " Patty Poem " gave me my love for poetry not because it was the poem that lifted my

spirits, but because it was the one that hurt me the most.

Is there link between humans and climate change or not? This question was first studied in the
early 1900s. Since then, many scientists have thought that our actions do make a difference. In
1997, the Kyoto Protocol explained our role in the Earth’s changing atmosphere and set
international limits for gas emissions(排放) from 2008 to 2012. Some countries have decided to
continue these reductions until 2020. More recently, the Paris Agreement, stuck by nearly 200
countries, also aims to limit global warming. But just now how much warmer it will get depends

Enough " meaningless drivel " . That’s the message from a group of members of the UK
government who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social
media data.
The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report, released last week, has
blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an
international standard or kitemark (认证标记) to identify sites that have clear terms and conditions.
僧
"The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to is meaningless drivel to

anyone," says Andrew Miller, the chair of the committee. Instead, he says, firms should provide

a plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party

It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme, but the UK government is looking at
introducing it on a voluntary basis. " we need to think through how we make that work in

Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? "I think if you went and did the survey,

people would like to think they would," says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton,
UK, who studies open data. "We do know people worry a lot about the inappropriate use of their
Other organisations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts they may not read or
understand, but Miller believes social media requires special attention because it is so new. "We
still don’t know how significant the long-term impact is going to be of unwise things that kids put
on social media that come back and bite them in 20 years’ time," he says.
Shadbolt, who gave evidence to the committee, says the problem is that we don’t know how co
mpanies will use our data because their business models and uses of data are still evolving. Large
The shock and anger when a social media firm does something with data that people don’t
expect, even if users have apparently permission, show that the current situation isn’t working. If
properly administered, a kitemark on terms and conditions could help people know what exactly
they are signing up to. Although they would still have to actually read them.
73. What does the phrase " meaningless drivel" in paragraphs 1 and 3 refer to?
A. Legal contracts that social media firms make people sign up to.

In the first move of its kind, all travelers will be forced to stand on both sides of escalators on
the London Underground as part of a plan to increase capacity(容量) at the height of the rush hour.
公
A six-month trial will be introduced at Holborn station from mid-April, eliminating the rule
of standing on the right and walking on the left. The move, imitating a similar structure in Far
eastern cities such as Hong Kong, is designed to increase the number of people using long
escalators at the busiest times . It could be expanded across the Tube network in coming years.
According to London Underground, only 40 percent of travelers walk the full length of long
escalators, leaving the majority at the bottom as they wait to get on to the "standing "side.
A three-week trial at Holborn last year found that the number of people using escalators at any
time of could be raised by almost a third. Peter McNaught, operations director at London
Underground, said: " It may not seem right that you can go quicker by standing still, but our
experiments at Holborn have proved that it can be true. This new six-month trial will help us find
out if we can influence customers to stand on both sides in the long term."
Holborn has one of the longest sets of escalators on the Underground network at 23.4 high.
Tube bosses claim that capacity was limited because so few people wanted to walk up—meaning
only one side was used at all times. Research has shown that it is more effective use of escalators
The previous trial found that escalators at the station normally carried 2,500 people between
8:30am and 9:30am on a typical day, rising to 3,250 during the researching period.

In the new trial, which will be launched from April 18, one of three "up" escalators will be

A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good
night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off — if it is milked from a
cow at night.
Researchers have discovered that "night milk" contains more melatonin (褪黑激素),which
has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.
The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk
powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.
Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active
and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study
published in
Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.
While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to
now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.
Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the

But being the parent of a motorhead is itself an experience in education. We who labor in

aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our
conversations are gossip(闲话). I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can
give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.
An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about.
Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic — breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out
— that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the
僧
juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think

another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor(传言) can make a
个
person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t. Similarly, hearing the
“一
latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the "in group." In other words, gossip is satisfying
Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how
众
people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors
in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with
公
is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying
something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The do’s and don’ts conveyed
The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to
spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your "juicy story"
might have.

A scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might
seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the
very nature of the physical world,and the baby is, well, just playing...right? Perhaps, but some
developmental psychologists ( 心 理 学 家 )have argued that this "play" is more like a scientific
Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over
the table edge, it falls to the ground — and, in the process, it brings out important evidence about
how physical objects interact(相互作用):bowls of rice do not float in mid-air, but require support
to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing this basic fact of the universe; nor
are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support
through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how
objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and the scientist’s
experiment appear to share the same aim (to learn about the natural world), overall approach
(gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).
Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical
world in this way — that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using
similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and
finally overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have

Two things changed my life: my mother and a white plastic bike basket. I have thought long

My mother and father were united in their way of raising children, but it mostly fell to my
mother to actually carry it out. Looking back, I honestly don’t know how she did it. Managing the
family budget must have been a very hard task, but she made it look effortless. If we complained
about not having what another kid did, we’d hear something like, "I don’t care what so-and-so got
for his birthday, you are not getting a TV in your room/a car for your birthday/a lavish sweet-16
party." We had to earn our allowance( 零 用 钱 ) by doing chores around the house. I can still
remember how long it took to polish the legs of our coffee table. My brothers can no doubt
remember hours spent cleaning the house. Like the two little girls growing up at the White House,
we made our own beds (no one left the house until that was done) and picked up after ourselves.
We had to keep track of our belongings, and if something was lost, it was not replaced.
It was summer and, one day, my mother drove me to the bike shop to get a tire fixed — and
there it was in the window. White, shiny, plastic and decorated with flowers, the basket winked at
"It’s beautiful," my mother said when I pointed it out to her. "What a neat basket."

"He can’t hold it for that long, Mom. Someone else will buy it. Please, Mom, please?"
And so our paying plan unfolded. My mother bought the beautiful basket and put it safely in
some hiding place I couldn’t find. Each week I eagerly counted my growing savings increased by
extra work here and there (washing the car, helping my mother make dinner, delivering or
collecting things on my bike that already looked naked without the basket in front). And then,
weeks later, I counted, re-counted and jumped for joy. Oh, happy day! I made it! I finally had the
Days later the unthinkable happened. A neighborhood girl I’d played with millions of times
appeared with the exact same basket fixed to her shiny, new bike that already had all the bells and
whistles. I rode hard and fast home to tell my mother about this disaster. This horrible turn of

I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been
able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.

Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a
recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults;

they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information
as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The
homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw
the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the

A build-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器) is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in
众
areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department
公
of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary
equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components
required, though, are a 5' 5' sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube,
and a container — perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded
To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three
feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place
your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way
in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.
Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and
weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with
45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more
The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates(蒸
发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off
into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and
won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.

I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch Cassidy

and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio didn’t want me for the

film — it wanted somebody as well known as Paul — he stood up for me. I don’t know how many
个
people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.
“一
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years
later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a
号
tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺) and focused on digging into the
众
characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of
American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other — but always with an
公
underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心) of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the belief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put
something back — he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who
are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each
other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially
I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital. He and I both knew
what the deal was, and we didn’t talk about it. Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of
words.

Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per
hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and burns 5 gallons per
Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they

Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It’s a
plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the
neighbors react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty.
They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the
attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes
lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The
damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer
because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant
just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was
talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to "overhear" the cry. So information was

After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.
Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the
continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the
1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther north
into the deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations —
major food sources (来源) for the wolf — grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of
vegetation ( 植 被 ), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote
populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’s red foxes, and

The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend. When
vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected.
This is called "herd immunity", which protects the people who get hurt easily, including those
who can’t be vaccinated for medical reasons, babies too young to get vaccinated and people on
whom the vaccine doesn’t work.
But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse
vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.
That’s exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange

extremely good at achieving something other than what we really want. In 1960 a well-known

effectively interfere(干预), we had better be quite sure that the purpose put into the machine is the
A machine with a specific purpose has another quality, one that we usually associate with
living things: a wish to preserve its own existence. For the machine, this quality is not in-born, nor
is it something introduced by humans; it is a logical consequence of the simple fact that the
machine can not achieve its original purpose if it is dead. So if we send out a robot with the single
instruction of fetching coffee, it will have a strong desire to secure success by disabling its own off
switch or even killing anyone who might interfere with its task. If we are not careful, then, we
could face a kind of global chess match against very determined, super intelligent machines whose
objectives conflict with our own, with the real world as the chessboard.
The possibility of entering into and losing such a match should concentrate the minds of
computer scientists. Some researchers argue that we can seal the machines inside a kind of
firewall, using them to answer difficult questions but never allowing them to affect the real world.
Unfortunately, that plan seems unlikely to work: we have yet to invent a firewall that is secure
Solving the safety problem well enough to move forward in AI seems to be possible but not

One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. 72 We know that, while
awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing(加强) connections between brain cells, but the
memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.
Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons(神经
元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day.
73
Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right. 74 The synapses in the
mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep,
If Tononi’s theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night ’s, we find it harder
the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for
new experiences.
Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the

To find out if the special quality was more widespread in birds, the researchers sought the
red-backed fairy wren, another species of Australian songbird. First they collected sound data
from 67 nests in four sites in Queensland before and after hatching. Then they identified begging
calls by analyzing the order and number of notes. A computer analysis blindly compared calls
It turns out that baby red-backed fairy wrens also emerge chirping like their moms. And the
more frequently mothers had called to their eggs, the more similar were the babies’ begging calls.
In addition, the team set up a separate experiment that suggested that the baby birds that most
closely imitated their mom’s voice were rewarded with the most food.
This observation hints that effective embryonic learning could signal neurological(神经系统

you invest in quality children, or do you invest in children that are in need?"Kleindorfer asks.

A new commodity brings about a highly profitable, fast-growing industry, urging antitrust(反
垄 断 ) regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in
question was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants(巨头) that deal in data, the
oil of the digital age. The most valuable firms are Google, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All
look unstoppable.
Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a
crime. The giants’ success has benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a
quick delivery. Far from charging consumers high prices, many of these services are free (users
pay, in effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests
But there is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more
valuable, changing the nature of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected
from users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into
new services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet
companies’ control of data gives them enormous power. So they have a "God’s eye view" of

like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would

become great again. A rethink is required — and as a new approach starts to become apparent,
高
two ideas stand out.
个
The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st
“一
century. When considering a merger( 兼 并 ), for example, they have traditionally used size to
determine when to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms’ data assets(资
号
产 ) when assessing the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an
established company is buying a new-born threat. When this takes place, especially when a
众
new-born company has no revenue to speak of, the regulators should raise red flags.
公
The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data
and give more to those who supply them. Companies could be forced to reveal to consumers what
information they hold and how much money they make from it. Governments could order the

While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life, global warming will continue for
some decades after CO2 emissions( 排 放 ) peak. So even if emissions were to begin to decrease
today, we would still face the challenge of adapting to climate change. Here I will stress some
conditions. This is why, in part at least, the US National Climate Assessment says that: "There is
no ‘one-size fits all’ adaptation." Nevertheless, there are some actions that offer much and carry
Around the world, people are adapting in surprising ways, especially in some poor countries.
Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent decades. Mohammed Rezwan saw
opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats
that serve as floating libraries, schools, and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and
roads and highways. But he is also working at a far more fundamental level: his staff show people
僧
how to make floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season.
中
Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken. Chewang Norphel lives in
高
a mountainous region in India, where he is known as the Ice Man. The loss of glaciers(冰川) there
个
due to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture. Without the glaciers, water
will arrive in the rivers at times when it can damage crops. Norphel’s inspiration came from
“一
seeing the waste of water over winter, when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into
shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring. His fields of ice supply perfectly
号
timed irrigation(灌溉) water. Having created nine such ice reserves, Norphel calculates that he has
众
stored about 200,000m3of water. Climate change is a continuing process, so Norphel’s ice reserves
公
will not last forever. Warming will overtake them. But he is providing a few years during which
Increasing Earth’s reflectiveness can cool the planet. In southern Spain the sudden increase of
greenhouses(which reflect light back to space) has changed the warming trend locally, and
actually cooled the region. While Spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the
greenhouses have decreased. This example should act as an inspiration for all cities. By painting
In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to
climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added
reflectiveness will restore the life-giving ice. The outcome is still far from clear. But the World
Bank has included the project on its list of "100 ideas to save the planet".
More ordinary forms of adaptation are happening everywhere. A friend of mine owns an area
of land in western Victoria. Over five generations the land has been too wet for cropping. But
during the past decade declining rainfall has allowed him to plant highly profitable crops. Farmers
in many countries are also adapting like this — either by growing new produce, or by growing the
same things differently. This is common sense. But some suggestions for adapting are not. When
the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no
choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual.
僧
Human beings will continue to adapt to the changing climate in both ordinary and astonishing
ways. But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less

carbon pollution. After all, if we adapt in that way, we may avoid the need to change in so many

Population Change
Why is the world’s population growing? The answer is not what you might think. The reason
for the explosion is not that people have been reproducing like rabbits, but that people have
stopped dropping dead like flies. In 1900, people died at the average age of 30. By 2000 the
average age was 65. But while increasing health was a typical feature of the 20th century,
1960s to 2.5 nowadays. Furthermore, around 50% of the world’s population live in regions where
the figure is now below the replacement level (i.e.2.1 births per woman) and almost all developed
nations are experiencing sub-replacement birth rate. You might think that developing nations
would make up the loss(especially since 80% of the world’s people now live in such nations), but
you’d be wrong. Declining birth rate is a major problem in many developing regions too, which
might cause catastrophic global shortages of work force within a few decades.
A great decline in young work force is likely to occur in China, for instance. What does it
imply? First, China needs to undergo rapid economic development before a population decline hits
the country. Second, if other factors such as technology remain constant, economic growth and
僧
material expectations will fall well below recent standards and this could invite trouble.

Russia is another country with population problems that could break its economic promise.

Since 1992 the number of people dying has been bigger than that of those being born by a massive

Fifteen years ago, I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy. After climbing up a
hill for a panoramic(全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused
to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.
Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted
herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the
view.
Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I
would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just
one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from
doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn’t want to mess with that.
Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take

This month, Germany’s transport minister, Alexander Dobrindt, proposed the first set of rules
for autonomous vehicles(自主驾驶车辆). They would define the driver’s role in such cars and
govern how such cars perform in crashes where lives might be lost.
The proposal attempts to deal with what some call the “death valley” of autonomous
vehicles: the grey area between semi-autonomous and fully driverless cars that could delay the
driverless future.
Dobrindt wants three things: that a car always chooses property(财产) damage over personal
injury; that it never distinguishes between humans based on age or race; and that if a human
removes his or her hands from the driving wheel — to check email, say — the car’s maker is
“The change to the road traffic law will permit fully automatic driving,” says Dobrindt. It
will put fully driverless cars on an equal legal footing to human drivers, he says.
Who is responsible for the operation of such vehicles is not clear among car makers,

consumers and lawyers. “The liability( 法 律 责 任 ) issue is the biggest one of them all,” says

I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But where are we doing all
of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue,
let’s take a look at three types of “waits”.
The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most
annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink( 洗 碗 池 ) as an example. There is absolutely
nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full.
During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs
over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and
mindless.
A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bit of discipline.
Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific.
僧
“Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand
five minutes.” I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After
unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary,
“一
waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.
Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists

among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the
众
Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to rely
on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.
公
We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the
sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash
falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate. You’re probably just as busy as the next guy.
B. get absent-minded
C. grow anxious
D. stay focused

Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home.
The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But
he later said, "Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night."
While it is likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical

We may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something
shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices(装置) well after they go
out of style. That’s bad news for the environment — and our wallets — as these outdated devices
consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.
To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the
Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product
throughout its life — from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This
method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices
were grouped by generation — Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined
1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smart phones, and LCD TVs
As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn't throw out our old ones. "The
living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room, and suddenly one day, you
have a TV in every room of the house," said one researcher. The average number of electronic
devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We're not just keeping these old devices

Many of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in
abundance. These colourful and sweet jewels form British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses
of nutritional protection.
Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds,
raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein).
Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits
such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As
for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C.
When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base
for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for
freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and
freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown.
Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the
freezer.
If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out
comes a “soft-serve” creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a
僧
children’s party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and
A. A dessert. B. A drink.
C. A container. D. A machine.
Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media
report published Monday.
While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows
that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help
According to the report’s key findings, “the proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read
for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent
The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2—8, remain
largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to
僧
an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
中
When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents
高
looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many
parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
个
The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples
“一
and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do
号
read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books
purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.
众
As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents
公
might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to
D. Parent-child relationships.
29. Where can you find the data that best supports “children are reading a lot less for fun”?
A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3.
C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.
僧
31. How should parents encourage their children to read more?
We’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who
众
are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable
公
silence.
What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence.
It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s awkward and challenging, or we
think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider
that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big
benefits.
Dismissing small talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships
wouldn’t
even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease(润滑剂) for social
communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana
University Southeast. "Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small
talk," he explains. "The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not
In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on
their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction(互动) with its waiter;
the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server
reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. "It’s not that
talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband," says Dunn. "But interactions with
peripheral(边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also."
僧
Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of
中
belonging a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with
,
高
small talk. "Small talk is the basis of good manners," he says.
个
A. Addiction to smartphones.

Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People
公
settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and
trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over
300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop
slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896,
Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two
years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.
Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People
went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up
icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without
warming. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to
Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for
gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.
But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and
wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The
city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard
there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come.

While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the designs of landmark buildings in China
such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts, many excellent
Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.
僧
Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-old Chinese architect, won the

2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize — which is often referred to as the Nobel Prize in architecture —
office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园) of the university in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.

The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities. Many visitors
were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types. The curves(曲线) of

the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.
公
Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages. He asked the workers
to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into walls, roofs and corridors. This creation
attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and traditional Chinese elements(元素).
Wang’s works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledge of
traditions. Through such a balance, he had created a new type of Chinese architecture, said Tadao
Wang believes traditions should not be sealed in glass boxes at museums. "That is only

In 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People

had been writing novels for a century—most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in

but nobody wanted to do it professionally. The steam-powered printing press was still in its
early stages; the literacy(识字) rate in England was under 50%. Many works of fiction appeared

In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and
publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their
公
readership and whose characters — from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim— were held up as moral
touchstones. Today Dickens’ greatness is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon(名人
堂) of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.
How did Dickens get to the top? For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a
numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass. Some 60,000 novels were
published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to1901; today a casual reader might be able to name
a half-dozen of them. It’s partly true that Dickens’ style of writing attracted audiences
from all walks of life. It’s partly that his writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific
progress. But it’s also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center. No one
will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and luck made Dickens such a singular writer.
But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is possible — and important for our own

Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider
that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off
garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein's jobs
Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree
branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台)
. The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these
headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products
Among the bag makers' argument: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper
bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic
bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today
The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable
shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it
cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study
僧
found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.

Environmentalists don't dispute(质疑) these points. They hope paper bags will be banned
someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.

Humans produce more than 300 million tons of plastic every year. Almost half of that winds up
in landfills(垃圾填埋场), and up to 12 million tons pollute the oceans. So far there is no effective
way to get rid of it, but a new study suggests an answer may lie in the stomachs of some hungry
worms.
Researchers in Spain and England recently found that the worms of the greater wax moth can
break down polyethylene, which accounts for 40% of plastics. The team left 100 wax worms on a
commercial polyethylene shopping bag for 12 hours, and the worms consumed and broke down
about 92 milligrams, or almost 3% of it. To confirm that the worms’ chewing alone was not
responsible for the polyethylene breakdown, the researchers made some worms into paste(糊状物)
and applied it to plastic films. 14 hours later the films had lost 13% of their mass — apparently
broken down by enzymes (酶) from the worms’ stomachs. Their findings were published in Current
Biology in 2017.
Federica Bertocchini, co-author of the study, says the worms’ ability to break down their
everyday food — beeswax — also allows them to break down plastic. "Wax is a complex mixture,
but the basic bond in polyethylene, the carbon-carbon bond, is there as well, "she explains, "The
Jennifer DeBruyn, a microbiologist at the University of Tennessee, who was not involved in
僧
the study, says it is not surprising that such worms can break down polyethylene. But compared with
previous studies, she finds the speed of breaking down in this one exciting. The next step, DeBruyn

says, will be to identify the cause of the breakdown. Is it an enzyme produced by the worm itself or

by its gut microbes(肠道微生物)?

Bertocchini agrees and hopes her team’s findings might one day help employ the enzyme to

The possibility of self-driving robot cars has often seemed like a futurist’s dream, years away

public roads. The state also cleared the way for companies to sell or rent out self-driving cars, and
公
for companies to operate driverless taxi services. California, it should be noted, isn’t leading the
way here. Companies have been testing their vehicles in cities across the country. It’s hard to predict
when driverless cars will be everywhere on our roads. But however long it takes, the technology has
the potential to change our transportation systems and our cities, for better or for worse, depending
While much of the debate so far has been focused on the safety of driverless cars(and rightfully
so), policymakers also should be talking about how self-driving vehicles can help reduce traffic
jams, cut emissions(排放) and offer more convenient, affordable mobility options. The arrival of
driverless vehicles is a chance to make sure that those vehicles are environmentally friendly and
more shared.
Do we want to copy — or even worsen — the traffic of today with driverless cars? Imagine a
future where most adults own individual self-driving vehicles. They tolerate long, slow journeys to
and from work on packed highways because they can work, entertain themselves or sleep on the
ride, which encourages urban spread. They take their driverless car to an appointment and set the
empty vehicle to circle the building to avoid paying for parking. Instead of walking a few blocks to
pick up a child or the dry cleaning, they send the self-driving minibus. The convenience even leads
fewer people to take public transport — an unwelcome side effect researchers have already found in
ride-hailing(叫车) services.
僧
A study from the University of California at Davis suggested that replacing petrol-powered
private cars worldwide with electric, self-driving and shared systems could reduce carbon emissions

from transportation 80% and cut the cost of transportation infrastructure(基础设施) and operations

40% by 2050. Fewer emissions and cheaper travel sound pretty appealing. The first commercially

57. The attraction of the Cloisters museum and gardens lies in the fact that ________.
In the 1760s, Mathurin Roze opened a series of shops that boasted(享有)a special meat soup
called consomme. Although the main attraction was the soup, Roze's chain shops also set a new
standard for dining out, which helped to establish Roze as the inventor of the modern restaurant.
Today, scholars have generated large amounts of instructive research about restaurants. Take
visual hints that influence what we eat: diners served themselves about 20 percent more
pasta(意大利面食)when their plates matched their food. When a dark-colored cake was served
on a black plate rather than a white one, customers recognized it as sweeter and more tasty.
Lighting matters, too. When Berlin restaurant customers ate in darkness, they couldn't tell how
much they'd had: those given extra-large shares ate more than everyone else, but were none the
wiser—they didn’t feel fuller, and they were just as ready for dessert.
僧
Time is money, but that principle means different things for different types of restaurants.
中
Unlike fast-food places. fine dining shops prefer customers to stay longer and spend. One way to
高
encourage customers to stay and order that extra round: put on some Mozart(莫扎特).When
classical, rather than pop, music was playing, diners spent more. Fast music hurried diners out.
个
Particular scents also have an effect: diners who got the scent of lavender(薰衣草)stayed
“一
longer and spent more than those who smelled lemon, or no scent.
号
Meanwhile, things that you might expect to discourage spending—"bad" tables, crowding.
众
high prices — don't necessarily. Diners at bad tables — next to the kitchen door, say — spent nearly
as much as others but soon fled. It can be concluded that restaurant keepers need not "be overly
公
concerned about ‘bad' tables," given that they're profitable. As for crowds, a Hong Kong study
found that they increased a restaurant's reputation, suggesting great food at fair prices. And doubling
a buffet's price led customers to say that its pizza was 11 percent tastier.

ahead of the big guys. As the co-founder of the National Young Farmers Coalition (NYFC, 美国青
年农会)and a family farmer myself. I have a front-row seat to the innovations among small
For example, take the Quick Cut Greens Harvester, a tool developed just a couple of years ago
by a young farmer, Jonathan Dysinger, in Tennessee, with a small loan from a local Slow Money
group. It enables small-scale farmers to harvest 175 pounds of green vegetables per hour—a huge
improvement over harvesting just a few dozen pounds by hand—suddenly making it possible for the
little guys to compete with large farms of California. Before the tool came out, small farmers
couldn't touch the price per pound offered by California farms. But now, with the combination of a
better price point and a generally fresher product, they can stay in business.
The sustainable success of small farmers, though, won't happen without fundamental changes
to the industry. One crucial factor is secure access to land. Competition from investors. developers,
and established large farmers makes owning one's own land unattainable for many new farmers.
From 2004 to 2013, agricultural land values doubled, and they continue to rise in many
regions.
Another challenge for more than a million of the most qualified farm workers and managers is
a non-existent path to citizenship — the greatest barrier to building a farm of their own. With
farmers over the age of 65 outnumbering(多于)farmers younger than 35 by six to one, and with

It found many youngsters(少年)now measure their status by how much public approval they
get online, often through “like”. Some change their behavior in real life to improve their image on
the web.
The report into youngsters aged from 8 to 12 was carried out by Children's Commissioner (专
员)Anne Longfield. She said social media firms were exposing children to major emotional risks,
with some youngsters starting secondary school ill-equipped to cope with the tremendous pressure
Some social apps were popular among the children even though they supposedly require users
to be at least 13.The youngsters admitted planning trips around potential photo-opportunities and
then messaging friends—and friends of friends — to demand “likes” for their online posts.
The report found that youngsters felt their friendships could be at risk if they did not respond to
social media posts quickly, and around the clock. Children aged 8 to 10 were "starting to feel happy"
when others liked their posts. However, those in the 10 to 12 age group were "concerned with how
many people like their posts", suggesting a “need” for social recognition that gets stronger the older
they become.
Miss Longfield warned that a generation of children risked growing up "worried about their
appearance and image as a result of the unrealistic lifestyles they follow on platforms, and
increasingly anxious about switching off due to the constant demands of social media.

How Arts Promote Our Economy
When most people think of the arts, they imagine the end product, the beautiful painting, a
wonderful piece of music, or an award-winning performance in the theater. But arts groups bring
broader value to our communities. The economic impact of the arts is often overlooked and badly
judged.
The arts create jobs that help develop the economy. Any given performance takes a tour bus
full of artists, technical experts, managers, musicians, or writers to create an appealing piece of art.
These people earn a living wage for their professional knowledge and skills.
Another group of folks is needed to help market the event. “If you build it they will come” is a
僧
misleading belief. Painters, digital media experts, photographers, booking agents and promoters are
中
hired to sell tickets and promote the event. According to the Dallas Area Cultural Advocacy
Coalition, arts agencies employ more than 10,000 people as full-or part-time employees or
高
independent contractors.
个
In 2005, when the Bishop Arts Theatre was donated to our town, the location was considered a poor
area of town. After investing more than $1 million in reconstructing the building, we began
号
producing a full season of theater performances, jazz concerts, and year-round arts education
众
programs in 2008. Nearly 40 percent of jazz lovers live outside of the Dallas city limits and drive or
No doubt the theater has contributed to the area’s development and economic growth. Today,
there are galleries, studios, restaurants and newly built work spaces where neighbors share
experiences, where there is renewed life and energy. In this way, arts and culture also serve as a
public good.
TeCo Theatrical Productions Inc. made use of Bloomberg’s investment of $35,000 to get
nearly $400,000 in public and private sector support during the two-year period. Further, Dallas arts
and arts-based businesses produce $298 for every dollar the city spends on arts programming and
facilities. In Philadelphia, a metro area smaller than Dallas, the arts have an economic impact of
almost $3 million and support 44,000 jobs, 80 percent of which actually lie outside the arts industry,
including accountants, marketers, construction workers, hotel managers, printers, and other kinds of
art workers.
The arts are efficient economic drivers and when they are supported, the entire small-business
community benefits.
It is wrong to assume arts groups cannot make a profit. But in order to stay in business, arts
groups must produce returns. If you are a student studying the arts, chances are you have been
ill-advised to have a plan B. But those who truly understand the economic impact and can work to

When I was 17, I read a magazine article about a museum called the McNay, once the home of
a watercolorist named Marian McNay. She had requested the community to turn it into a museum
upon her death. On a sunny Saturday, Sally and I drove over to the museum. She asked, "Do you
have the address? ""No, but I'll recognize it, there was a picture in the magazine. "

Picasso. This time, we stayed together, in case anything else unusual happened.
Thirty years later, a woman approached me in a public place. "Excuse me, did you ever enter a

Some people live to climb the highest mountains. Some people live only dreaming about it
公
while others live to avoid ever climbing at all. But one thing is certain, all people encounter
When I was a little girl, my family moved to a tiny town at the bottom of a big mountain. One
day after school, while exploring the green woods of this magnificent mountain, I almost fell on a
set of stairs. What could these steps lead to? Curiosity got the best of me as I knew it would be
starting to get dark soon. I started climbing up those strangely mysterious steps.
I climbed and climbed. There was nothing but just green bushes and these steps. I had to reach
the top! But it was now getting real dark. If I kept going I might not be able to see my way back. My
mom would be worried sick if I didn’t come home soon. So I ran back home almost in the dark while
trying not to get too scared.
Anxiously I went to bed dreaming about what I would find at the top of this magical mountain.
Could there be a castle up there? Maybe I would find a monster(怪物). Maybe I was taking the risk
of never coming back home. Or, maybe all I would find was absolutely nothing! But something
inside me was going to climb that mountain at all cost. I could hardly wait to try this adventure
again.
Now we live in a world surrounded by the "can’t do" attitudes. We all fall down. We all have
doubts and regrets. Still we must climb and dream about what’s at the top of our mountain. Monsters
may appear or the night will fall. But never ever give up on your dream! Never let anyone tell you,

Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface,where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)into the
ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die,they bury carbon in the deep ocean,an
important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the
ocean's warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect
phytoplankton growth,since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow,but also
nutrients.
Stephanie Dutkiewicz,a scientist in MIT's Center for Global Change Science,built a climate
model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃,
it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that
currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters,such

part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within
two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across.
Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth,all but a few hundred of them
extinct. There is,however,a second les known type of volcano that doesn't involve mountain
building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack,leaving
behind a vast hole,the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type,but Christiansen
Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographs
of Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the
assumption that they might make a nice blow-up for one of the visitors' centers. As soon as

Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved

In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent
changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we
live in a "borderless world". As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to
believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going
against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many
governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of
policies, both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at
the individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under valuation of what has
already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.

The 65-year-old Steve Goodwin was found suffering from early Alzheimer’s(阿尔楚海默症).
A software engineer by profession, Steve was a keen lover of the piano, and the only musician

Naomi and Steve met every other week and spent hours together. He’d move his fingers
clumsily on the piano, and then she’d take his place. He struggled to explain what he heard in his
head. He stood by the piano, eyes closed, listening for the first time to his own work being played by
someone else.
Steve and Naomi spoke in musical code lines, beats, intervals, moving from the root to end a
song in a new key. Steve heard it. All of it. He just couldn’t play it.
Working with Naomi did wonders for Steve. It had excited within him the belief he could write
one last song. One day, Naomi received an email. Attached was a recording, a recording of loss and

Despite their many differences, all human beings share several defining characteristics. such as
号
The first unique human characteristic is that humans have extraordinarily large brains
公
compared with other animals. It seems obvious that evolution should select for larger brains.
Mammals(哺乳动物)weighing sixty kilograms have an average brain size of 200 cm2. Modern man
has a brain averaging 1200-1400 cm2. We are so fond of our high intelligence that we assume that
when it comes to brain power, more must be better. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
The fact is that a huge brain is a huge drain—consumption of energy—on the body. I's not easy
to carry around, especially when boxed inside a massive skull(倾骨). It's even harder to provides
energy. In modern man, the brain accounts for about 2-3%of total body weight but it consumes 25%
of the body's energy when the body is at rest. By comparison, the brains of apes(类人猿)require
only 8%of rest-time energy. Early humans pad for their large brains in two ways. Firstly, they spent
more time in search food. Secondly, their muscles grew smaller and weaker. It's hardly an obvious
conclusion that this is a good way to survive. A chimpanzee(黑猩猩) can't win an argument with a
modern man, but it can tear the man apart like a rag doll.
Another unique human characteristic is that we walk upright. Standing up, it's easier to find
food or enemies. In addition, their arms that are unnecessary for moving around are freed for other
purposes, like throwing stones or signaling. As a result, humans can perform very complex tasks
Yet walking upright has its disadvantage. The bone structure of our ancestors developed for
millions of years to support a creature that walked on all fours and has a relatively small head.
Adjusting to an upright position was quite a challenge, especially when the bones had to support an
僧
extra-large skull. Humankind paid for its broad vision and skillful hands backaches and painful
necks.
中
We assume that a large brain makes huge advantages. It seems obvious that these have made
高
humankind the most powerful animal on earth. But humans enjoyed all of these advantages for a full

2 million years during which they remained weak and marginal creature. Thus humans who lived a

中
have built mathematical models of food webs,noting who eats whom and how much each one eats.
高
With such models,scientists have found out some key principles operating in food webs.
个
Most food webs,for instance,consist of many weak links rather than a few strong ones. When a
strongly linked;when a predator lives on various species,they are weakly linked. Food webs may
号
be dominated by many weak links because that arrangement is more stable over the long term. If a
predator can eat several species,it can survive the extinction(灭绝)of one of them. And if a
众
predator can move on to another species that is easier to find when a prey species becomes rare,
公
the switch allows the original prey to recover. The weak links may thus keep species from driving
Mathematical models have also revealed that food webs may be unstable,where small
changes of top predators can lead to big effects throughout entire ecosystems. In the 1960s,
scientists proposed that predators at the top of a food web had a surprising amount of control over
the size of populations of other species---including species they did not directly attack.
And unplanned human activities have proved the idea of top-down control by top predators to
be true. In the ocean,we fished for top predators such as cod on an industrial scale,while on
land,we killed off large predators such as wolves. These actions have greatly affected the
ecological balance.

the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please,
some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.
With high motivation and enthusiasm,we can keep on learning. Then we will know how
important it is to have meaning in our life. However,we can achieve meaning only if we have

Zachariah Fike has an unusual hobby. He finds old military(军队的)medals for sale in antique
stores and on the Internet.But unlike most collectors, Zac tracks down the medals’ rightful owners,
His effort to reunite families with lost medals began with a Christmas gift from his mother, a
Purple Heart with the name Corrado A. G. Piccoli, found in an antique shop. Zac knows the
meaning of a Purple Heart-he earned one himself in a war as a soldier. So when his mother gave him
Through the Internet, Zac tracked down Corrado’s sister Adeline Rockko. But when he finally
reached her, the woman flooded him with questions: "Who are you?What antique shop?"
However, when she hung up, she regretted the way she had handled the call. So she called Zac back
and apologized. Soon she drove to meet Zac in Watertown, N.Y. "At that point, I knew she meant
business, " Zac says. "To drive eight hours to come to see me."
The Piccolis grew up the children of Italian immigrants in Watertown. Corrado, a translator for

California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published
The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46,
000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from
the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In
the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of
Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick Mclntyre, an ecologist who was the lead
author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods.
Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with

Parents everywhere praise their kids. Jenn Berman, author of The A to Z Guide to Raising
Happy and Confident Kids, says, "We've gone to the opposite extreme of a few decades ago when
parents tended to be more strict." By giving kids a lot of praise, parents think they're building their
children's confidence, when, in fact, it may be just the opposite. Too much praise can backfire and,
when given in a way that's insincere, make kids afraid to try new things or take a risk for fear of not
being able to stay on top where their parents' praise has put them.
Still, don't go too far in the other direction. Not giving enough praise can be just as damaging
gas giving too much. Kids will feel like they're not good enough or that you don't care and, as a
So what is the right amount of praise? Experts say that the quality of praise is more important
僧
than the quantity. If praise is sincere and focused on the effort not the outcome, you can give it as
often as your child does something that deserves a verbal reward." We should especially recognize
中
our children's efforts to push themselves and work hard to achieve a goal, "says Donahue, author of

remember is that it's the process not the end product that matters."

Your son may not be the best basketball player on his team. But if he's out there every day and
playing hard, you should praise his effort regardless of whether his team wins or loses. Praising the

effort and not the outcome can also mean recognizing your child when she has worked hard to clean
the yard, cook dinner, or finish a book report. But whatever it is, praise should be given on a
众
case-by-case basis and be proportionate(相称 的)to the amount of effort your child has put into it.

Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend. There’s a

Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely
Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer
Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the
sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one
foot remain in contact (接触) with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race
walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise
Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says, According to most calculations,
race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里) per
hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than
running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.
However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says.
According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per
step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight
僧
with each step.
中
As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are
uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the
高
ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the
个
sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or
“一

Jenifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of
earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of
Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.
Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a
job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer

According to a recent study in the Journal of Consumer Research, both the size and

consumption habits of our eating companions can influence our food intake. And contrary to
existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions(份),
it's the beanpoles with big appetites you really need to avoid.
To test the effect of social influence on eating habits, the researchers conducted two
experiments. In the first, 95 undergraduate women were individually invited into a lab to
ostensibly(表面上)participate in a study about movie viewership. Before the film began, each
woman was asked to help herself to a snack. An actor hired by the researchers grabbed her food
first. In her natural state, the actor weighed 105 pounds. But in half the cases she wore a specially
followed suit, taking more food than they normally would have. However, they took significantly
For the second test, in one case the thin actor took two pieces of candy from the snack bowls. In
the other case, she took 30 pieces. The results were similar to the first test: the participants followed
suit but took significantly more candy when the thin actor took 30 pieces.
The tests show that the social environment is extremely influential when we're making
decisions. If this fellow participant is going to eat more, so will I. Call it the “I’ll have what she's
having” effect. However, we'll adjust the influence. If an overweight person is having a large
僧
portion, I'll hold back a bit because I see the results of his eating habits. But if a thin person eats a lot,
I'll follow suit. If he can eat much and keep slim, why can't I?

hope of sharing my enthusiasm for the theater with others. To do this I have searched through
dozens of plays to find the ones that I think best show the power and purpose of the short play.
Each play has a theme or central idea which the playwright(剧作家) hopes to get across
through dialogue and action. A few characters are used to create a single impression growing out of
the theme. It is not my intention to point out the central theme of each of the plays in this collection,
for that would, indeed, ruin the pleasure of reading, discussing, and thinking about the plays and the
effectiveness of the playwright. However, a variety of types is represented here. These include
comedy, satire, poignant drama, historical and regional drama. To show the versatility(多面性) of
the short play, I have included a guidance play, a radio play and a television play.
Among the writers of the plays in this collection, Paul Green, Susan Glaspell, Maxwell
Anderson, Thornton Wilder, William Saroyan, and Tennessee Williams have all received Pulitzer
Prizes for their contributions to the theater. More information about the playwrights will be found at

The traffic signals along Factoria Boulevard in Bellevue, Washington, generally don't flash the
same length of green twice in a row, especially at rush hour. At 9:30am, the full red/yellow/green
signal cycle might be 140 seconds. By 9:33am, a burst of additional traffic might push it to 145
seconds. Less traffic at 9:37am could push it down to 135. Just like the traffic itself, the timing of the
signals changes.
That is by design. Bellevue, a fast-growing city just east of Seattle, uses a system that is
gaining popularity around the US: intersection(十字路口) signals that can adjust in real time to
traffic conditions. These lights, known as adaptive signals, have led to significant declines in both

For all of Bellevue’s success, adaptive signals are not a cure-all for jammed roadways. Kevin

smart lights can be particularly beneficial for some cities, others are so jammed that only a sharp

reduction in the number of cars on the road will make a meaningful difference. “It’s not going to fix

everything, but adaptive signals have some benefits for smaller cities,” he says.

In Bellevue, the switch to adaptive signals has been a lesson in the value of welcoming new
approaches. In the past, there was often an automatic reaction to increased traffic: just widen the

One fall,my wife Elli and I had a single goal:to photograph polar bears. We were staying at a
公
research camp outside “the polar bear capital of the world”-the town of Churchill in Manitoba,
Canada.
Taking pictures of polar bears is amazing but also dangerous. Polar bears-like all wild
animals-should be photographed from a safe distance. When I'm face to face with a polar bear,I
like it to be through a camera with a telephoto lens. But sometimes,that is easier said than done.
As Elli and I cooked dinner,a young male polar bear who was playing in a nearby lake
He pulled and bit the wire. He stood on his back legs and pushed at the wooden fence posts.
Terrified,Elli and I tried all the bear defense actions we knew. We yelled at the bear,hit pots
hard,and fired blank shotgun shells into the air. Sometimes loud noises like these will scare bears
off. Not this polar bear though-he just kept trying to tear down the fence with his massive paws(爪
子).
I radioed the camp manager for help. He told me a helicopter was on its way,but it would be
30 minutes before it arrived. Making the best of this close encounter(相遇),I took some pictures
of the bear.
僧
Elli and I feared the fence wouldn't last through 30 more minutes of the bear's punishment. The
中
camp manager suggested I use pepper spray. The spray burns the bears' eyes,
but doesn't hurt them.
So I approached our uninvited guest slowly and,through the fence,sprayed him in the face. With

Sometimes it’s hard to let go. For many British people, that can apply to institutions and
objects that represent their country’s past-age-old castles, splendid homes… and red phone boxes.
Beaten first by the march of technology and lately by the terrible weather in junkyards (废品场),
the phone boxes representative of an age are now making something of a comeback. Adapted in
imaginative ways, many have reappeared on city streets and village greens housing tiny cafes,
僧
The original iron boxes with the round roofs first appeared in 1926. They were designed by
中
Giles Gilbert Scott, the architect of the Battersea Power Station in London. After becoming an
高
important part of many British streets, the phone boxes began disappearing in the 1980s, with the
个
rise of the mobile phone sending most of them away to the junkyards.
“一
About that time, Tony Inglis’ engineering and transport company got the job to remove phone
boxes from the streets and sell them out. But Inglis ended up buying hundreds of them himself, with
号
the idea of repairing and selling them. He said that he had heard the calls to preserve the boxes and
众
As Inglis and, later other businessmen, got to work, repurposed phone boxes began
reappearing in cities and villages as people found new uses for them. Today, they are once again a
familiar sight, playing roles that are often just as important for the community as their original
purpose.
In rural areas, where ambulances can take a relatively long time to arrive, the phone boxes have
taken on a lifesaving role. Local organizations can adopt them for l pound, and install defibrillators
to help in emergencies.
Others also looked at the phone boxes and saw business opportunities. LoveFone, a company
that advocates repairing cellphones rather than abandoning them, opened a mini workshop in a
London phone box in 2016.
The tiny shops made economic sense, according to Robert Kerr, a founder of LoveFone. He
said that one of the boxes generated around $13,500 in revenue a month and cost only about $400 to
rent.
Inglis said phone boxes called to mind an age when things were built to last. I “like what they

For those who can stomach it, working out before breakfast may be more beneficial for health
than eating first, according to a study of meal timing and physical activity.
Athletes and scientists have long known that meal timing affects performance. However, far
less has been known about how meal timing and exercise might affect general health.
To find out, British scientists conducted a study. They first found 10 overweight and inactive
but otherwise healthy young men, whose lifestyles are, for better and worse, representative of those
of most of us. They tested the men’s fitness and resting metabolic (新陈代谢的) rates and took
Then, on two separate morning visits to the scientists’ lab, each man walked for an hour at an
average speed that, in theory should allow his body to rely mainly on fat for fuel. Before one of these
workouts, the men skipped breakfast, meaning that they exercised on a completely empty stomach
after a long overnight fast (禁食). On the other occasion, they ate a rich morning meal about two
Just before and an hour after each workout, the scientists took additional samples of the men’s
僧
Then they compared the samples. There were considerable differences. Most obviously, the
中
men displayed lower blood sugar levels at the start of their workouts when they had skipped
breakfast than when they had eaten. As a result, they burned more fat during walks on an empty
高
stomach than when they had eaten first. On the other hand, they burned slightly more calories (卡路
个
里), on average, during the workout after breakfast than after fasting.
“一
But it was the effects deep within the fat cells that may have been the most significant, the
researchers found. Multiple genes behaved differently, depending on whether someone had eaten or
号
not before walking. Many of these genes produce proteins (蛋白质) that can improve blood sugar
众
regulation and insulin (胰岛素) levels throughout the body and so are associated with improved
metabolic health. These genes were much more active when the men had fasted before exercise than

The implication of these results is that to gain the greatest health benefits from exercise, it may

We were raised on books and computers, highways and cell phones, but now we were living in
a village without running water or electricity It was easy for us to go to sleep at the end of the day
Then one perfect Amazonian evening, with monkeys calling from beyond the village green, we
played soccer. I am not good at soccer, but that evening it was wonderful. Everyone knew the rules.
We all spoke the same language of passes and shots. We understood one another perfectly. As
darkness came over the field and the match ended, the goal keeper, Juan, walked over to me and said
in a matter-of-fact way, “In your home, do you have a moon too?” I was surprised.
After I explained to Juan that yes, we did have a moon and yes, it was very similar to his, I felt
a sort of awe (敬畏) at the possibilities that existed in his world. In Juan’s world, each village could
have its own moon. In Juan’s world. the unknown and undiscovered was vast and marvelous.
In our society, we know that Earth has only one moon. We have looked at our planet from
every angle and found all of the wildest things left to find. I can, from my computer at home, pull up
satellite images of Juan’s village. There are no more continents and no more moons to search for,

Yet, as I thought about Juan’s question, I was not sure how much more we could really rule out.

I am, in part, an ant biologist, so my thoughts turned to what we know about insect life and I knew

were bigger discoveries out there, not just species, but life that depends on things thought to be
useless, life even without DNA. I started a third drawer for these big discoveries. It fills more
公
In looking into the stories of biological discovery, I also began to find something else, a
collection of scientists, usually brilliant occasionally half-mad, who made the discoveries. Those
scientists very often see the same things that other scientists see, but they pay more attention to
them, and they focus on them to the point of exhaustion (穷尽), and at the risk of the ridicule of their
peers. In looking for the stories of discovery, I found the stories of these people and how their lives

If you see humor as an optional form of entertainment, you’re missing some of its biggest

Best of all, humor raises your energy, and that can have an effect on everything you do at
school, at work, or in your personal life. The increase of energy will even make you more willing to
exercise, and that will raise your overall energy even more.
Humor also transports your mind away from your daily troubles. Humor lets you better
understand life and sometimes helps you laugh at even the worst of your problems.
In my experience, most people think they have a sense of humor, and to some degree that’s
true. But not all senses of humor are created equal. So I thought it would be useful to include some
You don’t have to be the joke teller in the group in order to show your sense of humor. You can
be the one who directs the conversation to fun topics that are ripe for others to add humor. Every
party needs a straight person. You’ll appear fun and funny by association.
When it comes to in-person humor, effort counts a lot. When people see you trying to be funny,
it frees them to try it themselves. So even if your own efforts at humor fall short, you might be
freeing the long kept humor in others. People need permission to be funny in social settings because
there’s always a risk that comes with humor. For in-person humor, quality isn’t as important as you
Some people--and I was one of them--believe that humorous complaints about the little

Check out a book. While libraries still loan out(出借)books, you’ll find it easier to get a copy
of whatever you’re looking for, thanks to a cooperative network of area libraries. Via such
networks, libraries share their books with each other through the use of delivery vehicles. Once the
book you’ve requested is delivered to the nearest branch, they will inform you by e-mail, so you can
pick it up.

Vinnie glanced around and noted the size of his office. “I work quickly,” she said. Her voice
was soft but confident as she pointed to the corner near the windows. “If I were to bring my clay
here and work for three hours every afternoon, I could complete most of the project while you are at
your desk.”
The President seemed to consider her idea seriously. He got up and shook Vinnie’s hand
warmly, “I’ve heard that you are a talented young woman, and I have found you charming and
intelligent as well. I cannot make my decision immediately, but you will hear from me soon.”

For those who hunger for some peace and quiet, sound can now create silence. Let’s say you
are at the airport, and the little boy on the seat next to you is humming(哼唱) a short commercial
song. He hums it over and over again, and you are about to go crazy. Thanks to the Silence Machine,
a British invention, you can get rid of the sound without upsetting the boy or his parents. One may
wonder how the Silence Machine works. Well, it functions by analyzing the waves of the incoming
sound and creating a second set of outgoing waves. The two sets of waves cancel each other out.
Simply turn the machine or point it at the target, and your peace and quiet comes back.
Directed sound is a new technology that allows companies to use sound in much the same way

As any younger brother will tell you, having a big brother involves a lot of walking in someone
else’s shadow, especially when you have a brother who is a typical example of “cool”. For years I
wanted to do everything my elder brother Tyson did, but no matter how hard I tried, I was always
the neglected (被忽略的) one. My legs just weren’t made to run like his. I could never play football
or basketball well.
I probably would have continued trying to keep up with him for the rest of my high school
career, but when my family moved, everything changed. Tyson left for college, so I had to start at a
new school all by myself. This new start gave me an opportunity to redefine myself and discover an
僧
entirely new version of “cool”.
中
I don’t know what made me decide to try some new activities at the new school, but one day I
chanced to show up for an after-school meeting of the Science Olympiad team. I had always been

fascinated with chemistry, biology, and math, but since those interests hadn’t fit Tyson’s definition

of “cool”, I had never pursued them. On this day, for some reason, I did.

connected than I ever had to any sports team. I didn’t feel as though I needed to keep up with

I’m good at. For the first time in my life, I actually felt cool. Now I know who I am! I’m Tyson’s
