Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day.UNESCO(United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music,its significance,and its potential as a unifying(
联合
) voice across cultures.
Despite the celebrations,though,in the U.S.the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older,and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.
It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change
that
.As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz,Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz,make the music more accessible,and preserve its history and culture.

“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan.“What I’m hoping to accomplish is that my generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and white anymore.It’s actually color,and it’s actually digital.”
Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost.“The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958.It has to continue to move,because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.

Last year,Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party,“just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran.“For me,it’s the recontextualization.In music,where does the emotion(
情感
) lie?Are we,as humans,gaining any insight(
感悟
) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts?Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran,“so I want to continue those dialogues.Those are the things I want to foster.”

Terrafugia Inc.said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight,bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year.The vehicle —named the Transition — has two seats,four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car.The 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 hour in the air.On the ground,it gets 35 miles per gallon.

Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale,and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show.But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways.It’s expected to cost $279,000.And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic.The car needs a runway.
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s,according to Robert Mann,an airline industry expert.But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality.The government has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly.The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.

Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’s decision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft,which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes.Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition,a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.

The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB” in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.
Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(
隔绝
) and inactive.
Led by Professor Phil Blythe,the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.

These include custom-made navigation(

) tools,night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations.Phil Blythe explains:“For many older people,particularly those living alone or in the country,driving is important for preserving their independence,giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.
“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills.The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”
Dr Amy Guo,the leading researcher on the older driver study,explains:“The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key stress points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.

“For example,most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly,we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined.We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.
“We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(

) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”

Chimps(
黑猩猩
) will cooperate in certain ways,like gathering in war parties to protect their territory.But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings,they have little instinct(
本能
) to 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.
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 neighbor gets fed or not.Chimps are truly selfish.

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 trying to open a door,almost all will immediately try to help.

There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help,inform and share are not taught,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 be part of a “we”,a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.

The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups.Silences may be thoughtful,or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say.A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness,uneasiness,or worry.Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable;therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap (

Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people,just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do.Therefore,when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and 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.

Bad news sells.If it bleeds,it leads.No news is good news,and good news is no news.Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers.But now that information is being spread and monitored(
监控
) in different ways,researchers are discovering new rules.By tracking people’s e-mails and online posts,scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.
“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger,a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania.“They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling.But when you share a story with your friends,you care a lot more how they react.You don’t want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer.”

Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication-e-mails,Web posts and reviews,face-to-face conversations-found that it tended to be more positive than negative(
消极的
),but that didn’t necessarily mean people preferred positive news.Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things?To test for that possibility,Dr.Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories:thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website.He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months.One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles.He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.

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
The
Journal
of
Medicinal
Food
.
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 calcium content,which helps people to relax.

December 15,2014
Dear Alfred,
I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.
Growing up,I had people telling me I was too slow,though,with an IQ of 150+ at 17,I’m anything but stupid.The fact was that I was found to have ADHD(
注意力缺陷多动障碍
).Anxious all the time,I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.
However,when something did interest me,I could become absorbed.In high school,I became curious about the computer,and built my first website.Moreover,I completed the senior course of Computer Basics,plus five relevant pre-college courses.
While I was exploring my curiosity,my disease got worse.I wanted to go to college after high school,but couldn’t.So,I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.
Since then,I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics.Currently,I’m learning your Probability course.I have hundreds of printer paper,covered in self-written notes from your videos.This has given me a purpose.
Last year,I spent all my time looking for a job where,without dealing with the public,I could work alone,but still have a team to talk to.Luckily,I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead.I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession,without going to college,and be just as good as,if not better than,my competitors.

Natalie Doan,14,has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway,New York.Living just a few blocks from the beach,Natalie can see the ocean and hear the waves from her house.“It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
On October 29,2012,that ocean turned fierce.That night,Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast,and Rockaway was hit especially hard.Fortunately,Natalie’s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridges closed.

When they returned to Rockaway the next day,they found their neighborhood in ruins.Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away.All around her,people were suffering,especially the elderly.Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days,the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie.Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys.Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild.Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,”Natalie says,“but I can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie’s choice was to help.

Today,the scars(

Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has.There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.
We experience this tiredness in two ways:as start-up fatigue(
疲惫
) and performance fatigue.In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult.And the longer we delay it,the more tired we feel.
Such start-up fatigue is very real,even if not actually physical,not something in our muscles and bones.The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply:always handle the most difficult job first.

Years ago,I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors.Applying my own rule,I determined to write them in alphabetical order(
按字母顺序
),never letting myself leave out a tough idea.And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing.Experience proved that the rule works.
Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle.Though willing to get started,we cannot seem to do the job right.Its difficulties appear so great that,however hard we work,we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over.
When planning
Encyclopaedia
Britannica
(
《大英百科全书》
),I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles.Nothing like this had ever been done before,and day after day I kept coming up with solutions,but none of them worked.My fatigue became almost unbearable.
One day,mentally exhausted,I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved.I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself,not with me.Relieved,I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
An hour later,I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind.In the weeks that followed,the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step.Though I worked as hard as before,I felt no fatigue.Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
Human beings,I believe,must try to succeed.Success,then,means never feeling tired.

Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating,for people are often less self-conscious(
难为情
) when they’re in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn’t have enough window light,get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.

Mind the colors.Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing,while cold colors make us feel less hungry.So when it’s time to repaint,go blue.
Don’t forget the clock — or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(
卡路里
)per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin keeping track of the time,and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes.And while you’re at it,actually sit down to eat.If you need some help slowing down,turn on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.

Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one,total intake(

) jumps by 14 percent.And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short,wide glass than a tall,skinny glass.

重庆
,A)
At thirteen,I was diagnosed(
诊断
) with a kind of attention disorder.It made school difficult for me.When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks,I could not.
In my first literature class,Mrs.Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it,all within 45 minutes.I raised my hand right away and said,“Mrs.Smith,you see,the doctor said I have attention problems.I might not be able to do it.”
She glanced down at me through her glasses,“You are no different from your classmates,young man.”
I tried,but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang.I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom,the story suddenly all became clear to me.It was about a blind person,Louis Braille.He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education.But Louis didn’t give up.Instead,he invented a reading system of raised dots(
点
),which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class,being made to learn like the “sighted” students?My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance.I completed the task within 40 minutes.Indeed,I was no different from others;I just needed a quieter place.If Louis could find his way out of his problems,why should I ever give up?
I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs.Smith,so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an “A” on it.At the bottom of the paper were these words:“See what you can do when you keep trying?”

,B)
When the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life,she did what comes naturally.The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and,being a city animal,lost both her sheep and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of a cliff(
悬崖
) and fell 100 feet,bouncing off a rock into the sea.
Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall,who turned up in seconds.Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.
Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.

For the next two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve Tregear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holden if he would like his dog back.
A birdwatcher,armed with a telescope,found the pet sitting desperately on a rock.While he sounded the alarm,a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.
The dog had initially been knocked unconscious (
失去知觉的
) but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge.“The dog was very thin and hungry,” Steve Tregear said.“It was a very lucky dog.She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water,” he added.
It was,as Mr Holden admitted,“a minor miracle (

Food serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways.Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust.Food can also have a specific meaning,and play a significant role in a family or culture’s celebrations or traditions.The foods we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural (
农村的
) and urban areas within one country.
Sharing bread,whether during a special occasion (
时刻
) or at the family dinner table,is a common symbol of togetherness.Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests.Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread,so this tradition has its roots in the custom of sharing bread.

Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations.In the southern United States,pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity (
兴旺
) in the New Year.In Greece,people share a special cake called
vasilopita
.A coin is put into the cake,which signifies (
预示
) success in the New Year for the person who receives it.
Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child,and food can play a significant role.In China,when a baby is one month old,families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests.In many cultures,round foods such as grapes,bread,and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.
Nutrition is necessary for life,so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.

During the first week of his stay,he went out one day to do some shopping.He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone.He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers,including his passport.
He reported the case to the police and then sat there,lost and lonely in a strange city,thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organised again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.

My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers.Her parents had carefully sorted them out,although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents.At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.

,D)
Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money.Strange as it may seem,if you’re unsatisfied,the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires—not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don’t have enough tastes.
Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities(
能力
) to enjoy life.Most people are already swamped(
淹没
) with things.They eat,wear,go and talk too much.
They live in too big a house with too many rooms,yet their house of life is a hut.
Your house of life ought to be a mansion(
豪宅
),a royal palace.Every new taste,every additional interest,every fresh enthusiasm adds a room.Here are several rooms your house of life should have.

Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things.If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them,they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you’re hungry.
Literature,classic literature,is a beautiful,richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment.To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person,for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.
Music like Mozart’s and Bach’s shouldn’t be absent.Real riches are of the spirit.And when you’ve brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk,you have increased your thrills and bettered them.And life is a matter of thrills.

You may not have heard of Ashoka,but for the past 27 years,this association,founded by Bill Drayton,has fought poverty(

Drayton believes that anyone can become an agent for change.The important thing is to simply give yourself permission.If you see a problem that you care about,you can help solve it.The young in particular are willing to accept this concept because at heart every child wants to grow into a happy,healthy,contributing adult.In fact,it is many young people’s ambition to set up programmes or businesses that improve social conditions.An excellent example is an Ashoka project started in 1995 in Dhaka,which handled the rubbish problem facing the city,helped local farmers and provided an income for poor people there.

When Masqsood and Iftekhar began to study the problem of all the uncollected rubbish that lay in Dhaka’s streets,attracting rats and disease,they discovered that 80% of it was natural waste.So they educated the poor people in the city to compost(
把
……

)this waste.They knew that they would have a market for the end product because local farmers were struggling with chemical fertilisers(

that there was money to be made,the project took off.In 2009 sales were $14,000.

Working with a group of baboons(
狒狒
) in the Namibian desert,Dr.Alecia Carter of the Department of Zoology,Cambridge University set baboons learning tasks involving a novel food and a familiar food hidden in a box.Some baboons were given the chance to watch another baboon who already knew how to solve the task,while others had to learn for themselves.To work out how brave or anxious the baboons were,Dr.Carter presented them either with a novel food or a threat in the form of a model of a poisonous snake.
She found that personality had a major impact on learning.The braver baboons learnt,but the shy ones did not learn the task although they watched the baboon perform the task of finding the novel food just as long as the brave ones did.In effect,despite being made aware of what to do,they were still too shy to do what the experienced baboon did.

The same held true for anxious baboons compared with calm ones.The anxious individuals learnt the task by observing others while those who were relaxed did not,even though they spent more time watching.
This
mismatch
between collecting social information and using it shows that personality plays a key role in social learning in animals,something that has previously been ignored in studies on how animals learn to do things.The findings are significant because they suggest that animals may perform poorly in cognitive(

The findings may impact how we understand the formation of culture in societies through social learning.If some individuals are unable to get information from others because they don’t associate with the knowledgeable individuals,or they are too shy to use the information once they have it,information may not travel between all group members,preventing the formation of a culture based on social learning.

Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight,while the French,who consume rich food,continue to stay thin?Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight.Researchers conclude that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full.However,Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.

According to Dr.Joseph Mercola,a health expert,the French see eating as an important part of their life style.They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table,while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities.Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full.So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped.In addition,he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week.The French,instead,tend to shop daily,walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a choice of fresh fruit,vegetables,and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.

With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9 am Monday morning lecture,it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes;it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(
睡衣
).Obviously,students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.
All human beings possess a body clock.Along with other alerting(
警报
) systems,this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour.Typically,the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents,which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings.This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the “night owl” schedule of sleep.

This is opposed to the “early bird” schedule,and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight.Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings.Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night.Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be
classified
as “night owls” and only 10 percent can be classified as “early birds”—the other 70 percent are in the middle.Although this is clearly not true for all students,for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.

,A)
Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They don’t listen because they already know it all.I was lucky:I became a pilot in 1970,almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didn’t realize then,but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger,faster planes,and in worse weather,I learned about crew resource management (
机组资源管理
),or CRM,a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result,regardless of positions.

I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that,an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying;I was safety pilot.He was so busy because of the bad turn,he had forgotten to put the landing gear (
起落架
) down.He was a better pilot—and my boss—so it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to:Our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put the landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM,and I’ve used it in the operating room ever since.

CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite,the doctor doesn’t overreact,which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.So when I’m in the operating room,I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes they’re not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them,someday someone will keep me from “
landing gear up
”.

The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups.Silences may be thoughtful,or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say.A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness,uneasiness,or worry.Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable;therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap (

Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people,just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do.Therefore,when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and 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 (

Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws light on how children learn,but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists.Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike?Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort—the desire to explore,explain,and understand our world—is simply something that comes from our babyhood.Perhaps evolution(
进化
)provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds,and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children.The same cognitive(

中心大意题
文章的中心大意往往由文章体裁所决定。议论文主要是论述作者的某个观点
,
往往采用
“
总
—
分
—
总
”
的模式
,
第一段提出论点
,
然后是论据部分
,
最后一段得出结论
(
论点的重申
),
所以主题句常在第一段或最后一段
;
说明文则是说明一个事物的用途或制作过程
,
主题句一般在首段
;
而新闻报道却是报道一个人物事迹或重大事件等
,
主题句常出现在首段首句
;
记叙文一般没有明显的主题句
,
需要根据文中叙述的内容和线索来概括文章大意
,
但是如果文章末段出现说理性的句子
,
则这个句子为主题句。

标题归纳题
标题具有醒目性、概括性和针对性的特点。醒目性是为了吸引读者的注意力
,
唤起读者对文章阅读的兴趣
;
概括性
,
就是指标题要覆盖文章的主要内容
,
体现文章的主题
;
针对性是标题要直接指向文章的主要特点。标题归纳题与中心大意题具有共同之处
,
当文章主旨是一个短语或一句简洁的话时
,
我们可把它看作标题
;
但是文章主旨往往是作者写作目的或写作内容的归纳
,
一般不作为文章标题。此外
,
标题必须反映文章的中心大意
,
概括性强
,
表达精准
,
这就要求选项的归纳要恰如其分

范围合理。

段落大意题
英语段落的中心思想常用主题句表达。所谓主题句就是概括说明某一段落中心思想的句子。阅读的主要目的就是读懂文章段落的中心大意
,
辨别文章段落的中心思想自然就成了一个很重要的阅读技巧
,
这一技巧同样在提高阅读能力和阅读速度中起着关键性的作用。
主题句是表达段落主题的句子。它用以概括段落大意
,
要求全段其他文字都围绕它展开。主题句通常放在段落的开端
,
其特点是开门见山地摆出问题
,
然后加以详细说明。其作用是使文章的结构更清晰
,
更具说服力
,
便于读者迅速地把握主题和想象全段的内容。主题句可以放在段中起到承上启下的作用
,
或放在段尾起概括全段的作用。

Chimps(

本能
) to 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.
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 neighbor gets fed or not.Chimps are truly selfish.

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 trying to open a door,almost all will immediately try to help.

There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help,inform and share are not taught,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(

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 be part of a “we”,a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.

While household robots today do the normal housework,social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools.For example,these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad.This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.

The more interaction the robot has with humans,the more it learns.But Oshbot,like other social robots,is not intended to replace workers,but to work alongside other employees.“We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us,but with us,”said Breazeal.

Not surprisingly,the 6-time platinum Fearless is the most awarded album in country music history in the US and her overall worldwide sales now reach 20 million albums and 40 million songs downloads.Swift has spent the past year on the Speak Now World Tour in support of her third album,and now she’s getting ready to go further.
According to a recent interview with
The
New
Yorker
magazine,Swift has so far written about 10 songs for a 2016 album.She said the new album is about feelings of growing up and becoming an adult.

I hadn’t walked across our old farm in the past fifteen years.Yet the memories came flooding back.Rain or shine,I used to walk this path each day to see Greta.She always made me smile,even after my sister and I had just had a big quarrel.I would help Greta with her chores(
家务活

Greta gave me two of the greatest gifts I’ve ever received.First,she taught me how to read.She also taught me that when I forgave my sister for our quarrels,it meant I wouldn’t keep feeling like a victim.Instead,I would feel sunny.
Mr.Dinking,the local banker,tried to take away Greta’s house and land after her husband passed away.Thanks to Papa and Uncle Johan,Greta got to keep everything.
Soon folks were coming from miles around to buy Greta’s home-made cookies and ice cream.Greta even had me take a big apple pie to Mr.Dinking who later became one of her best customers and friends.That’s just how Greta was.She could turn anyone into a friend!
Greta always said,“Dear,keep walking in the sunshine!” No matter how terrible my day started,I always felt sunny walking home from Greta’s house—even beneath the winter starlight.
I arrived at Greta’s house today just after sunset.An ambulance had stopped a few feet from her door.When I ran into the old house,Greta recognized me right away.
She was almost out of breath when she reached out and softly touched my arm.Her last words to me were,“Dear,keep walking in the sunshine!”
I’m sure that Greta is walking in the brightest sunshine she’s ever seen.

When I was a child,after bedtime I would often go to the window and stare at the stars.I had so many questions.How far away were those tiny points of light?Did space go on forever and ever,or was there some edge?And if so,what lay beyond the edge?

When I grew up,I became a professional astrophysicist.Although I never answered any of these questions,they continued to challenge me,to
haunt
me,to drive me in my scientific research,and to cause me to live on tuna fish and no sleep for days at a time while I was crazy about a science problem.These same questions,and questions like them,challenge and haunt the leading scientists of today.

Einstein once wrote that “the most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious.It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the beginning of true art and true science.” What did Einstein mean by “the mysterious?” I don’t think he meant that science is full of unpredictable or unknowable or supernatural forces.I think that he meant a sense of awe,a sense that there are things larger than us,that we do not have all the answers at this moment,and that we can stand right at the boundary between known and unknown.
Scientists are happy,of course,when they find answers to questions.But scientists are also happy when they become stuck,when they discover interesting questions that they cannot answer.That is when their imaginations and creativity are set on fire.That is when the greatest progress occurs.

Nowadays more and more people are talking about genetically modified foods(GM foods).GM foods develop from genetically modified organisms (
有机体
),which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques.These techniques are much more precise where an organism is exposed to chemicals to create a non-specific but stable change.For many people,the high-tech production raises all kinds of environmental,ethical,health and safety problems.Particularly in countries with long farming traditions,the idea seems against nature.

In fact,GM foods are already very much a part of our lives.They were first put on the market in 1996.A third of the corn and more than half the cotton grown in the U.S.last year was the product of biotechnology,according to the Department of Agriculture.More than 65 million acres of genetically modified crops will be planted in the US this year.
The genetic genie is out of the bottle.
However,like any new product entering the food chain,GM foods must be subjected to careful testing.In wealthy countries,the debate about biotech is not so fierce by the fact that they have a large number of foods to choose from,and a supply that goes beyond the needs.In developing countries desperate to feed fast-growing and underfed populations,the matter is simpler and much more urgent:do the benefits of biotech outweigh the risks?

The statistics on population growth and hunger are disturbing.Last year the world’s population reached 6 billion.The UN states that nearly 800 million people around the world are unhealthy.About 400 million women of childbearing age don’ t have enough iron,which means their babies are exposed to various birth defeats.As many as 100 million children suffer from vitamin A deficiency,a leading cause of blindness.
How can biotech help? Genetic engineering is widely used to produce plants and animals with better nutritional values.Biotechnologists have developed genetically modified rice and they are working on other kinds of nutritionally improved crops.Biotech can also improve farming productivity in places where food shortages are caused by crop damage attributable to drought,poor soil and crop viruses.

My husband,Scott,stepped up to the plate,taking care of kids and cooking dinners.He also became my personal caretaker,applying the medicine to all of my blisters because my hands couldn’t do the job.Needless to say,I had negative emotions,bouncing from embarrassment to shame caused by total reliance on someone other than myself.
I recovered from my illness,but I couldn’t seem to recover from the thought that I loved my husband less than he loved me.This seeming distinction in our love continued to annoy me for the year following my illness.
Then recently Scott and I went on a long bike ride.He’s an experienced cyclist;I’m quite the green hand.At one point with a strong headwind and sharp pain building in my tired legs,I really thought I couldn’t go any further.Seeing me struggle,Scott pulled in front of me and yelled over his shoulder,“Stay close behind me.” As I followed his steps,I discovered that my legs quit burning and I was able to catch my breath.My husband was pulling me along—again.
I pray my husband will always be strong and healthy.But if he should ever become the struggling one,whether on a bike ride or with an illness,I trust I’ll be ready to call out to him,“Stay close behind me—my turn to pull you along.”

Scientists have found living organisms trapped in crystals(
晶体
)that could be 50,000 years old.
The organisms were found in a hot,but beautiful cave system in Naica,Mexico.These ancient life forms can be seen only with a microscope.Penelope Boston,who leads the Astrobiology Institute at NASA,the space agency of the United States,says the ancient microbes were able to live by eating minerals such as iron.

She spoke about the discovery recently at a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.If the findings are confirmed,they will show how microbes can survive in extreme conditions.Forty different kinds of microbes and some viruses were found in the underground area.The genetic structures of these organisms are 10 percent different from those of their nearest relatives.
The caves in Naica are 800 kilometers deep.They were once used for mining lead.Before the miners began working in the caves,the area was separated from the surface and the outside world.Some of the caves are as big as the large religious centers built during Europe’s Middle Ages.There are crystals covering the walls.The caves are so hot that scientists must wear special clothing to keep cool.The clothing keeps the crystals safe from human germs(
病菌
)or other damage.Boston said the researchers could only work for about 20 minutes at a time before they had to go to a room that was 38 degrees Celsius to cool down.

NASA officials would not let Boston share her findings with scientific experts before last week’s announcement.So scientists could not say much about the findings.But Norine Noonan,a biologist with the University of South Florida,said she believed them.“Why are we surprised?” Noonan asked.“As a biologist,I would say life on Earth is extremely tough and extremely colorful.”
Boston is also studying microbes commonly found inside caves in other countries,such as Ukraine and the United States.These microbes appear to be impossible to kill.Boston said they show how difficult life on Earth can be.

Grandparents who help out occasionally with childcare in their community tend to live longer than seniors who do not care for other people,according to a study from Berlin,Germany.
“Having no contact with grandchildren at all can negatively impact grandparents’ health.This link could be deeply rooted in our evolutionary past when help with childcare was important for the survival of the human species,” said Sonja Hilbrand,one of the researchers.

The findings are drawn from data on more than 500 people over age 70.Overall,after accounting for grandparents’ age and general state of health,the risk of dying over a 20-year period was one-third lower for grandparents who cared for their grandchildren,compared with grandparents who provided no childcare.
Caregiving was associated with a longer life even when the care receiver wasn’t a relative.Half of all childless seniors who provided support to friends or neighbors lived for seven years after the study began,while non-helpers lived for four years on average.
“Caregiving may give caregivers a purpose of life because they may feel useful for others and society.Caregiving may be thought also as an activity that keeps caregivers physically and mentally active,” said Professor Bruno Arpino.

Arpino noted,however,that caregiving is not the only activity that can improve health and that too many caring responsibilities can take away from other beneficial activities like working,being in social clubs,or volunteering.“Children should
take into account
their parents’ needs,willingness,and desires and agree with them on the timing and amount of childcare,” he suggested.
“It is very important that every individual decides for himself/herself,what proper amounts of help means,” Hilbrand said,adding,“As long as you do not feel stressed about the intensity(
强度
)of help you provide,you may be doing something good for others as well as for yourself.”
