11、er and soil.If you areespecially lucky,you will get to smell fresh-cut grass.Its a beloved scent that transports many people back to their childhood.But theres a dark side to that smell.Indeed,we are in love with the scent of fear.Plants have many different chemical defenses.That smell is one of the

12、m,as the grass responds toan attack,signaling（ 向 示意） to the surrounding grass that danger is coming.The fresh,green” scent of a just-mowed lawn is the lawn trying to save itself,says a story at science website Real-Clear Science.The smell is produced by a mix of chemicals called green leaf volatiles

13、（GLVs, 绿叶挥发物）。When the leafy plants are injured-by animals eating them,people cutting them,or any other rough treatment-they give off GLVs into the air.These GLVs are a warning to neighbouring plants that their flowers might be removed,so they can move resources like sugar toward their roots and awa

14、y from their flowers.This reduces a plants potential losses and can help it grow back later.The rush of GLVs does a few other things,too.One chemical helps to close the wound on the damaged plant.Others act as antibiotics（ 抗生素）and prevent bacterial infections.Some GLVs may also react with animals th

15、at eat plants.Silke All-mann and Ian T.Baldwin, researchers from the University of Amsterdam,Netherlands,found that some caterpillars（ 毛虫） are changed by the GLV compounds（化合物） when they eat a tobacco plant.Tobacco makes the caterpillars more attractive to predators（ 捕食者）。For the tobacco plants,this

16、 is like having an olderbrother come to beat up your bully（ 欺凌者）。Thankfully,nothing is coming to eat you when you mow the lawn.Instead,we human get treated to some great-smelling GLVs.One is a compound known ascis-3-hexenal.This is the same chemical that gives strawberries their sweet scent.Similar

17、compounds are also found in apples and olives. Just about all fresh vegetables have some GLV scents to them,Baldwin told Live Science,and fruits may release the compounds as they soften.Throughout evolutionary history,weve used that information to know when something is ripe,Baldwin said.Now we can

21、e（ 最 优秀的）levels of ability.The researchers set out to replicate（复帝U） the process of a new-famous 1993 study of top-level violinists and pianists.On average,the earlier study found that top-ranked musicians had clocked over 10,000 hours of practice by the age of 20.It put their success down to the ho

22、urs spent practicing, downplaying the importance of natural,learning skills and other factors.Author Malcolm Gladwell later relied on this study for his 2008 book,Outliers.He called 10,000 hoursthe magic number of greatness 。”Questioning this conclusion,Brooke Macnamara and Megha Maitra,from Case We

23、stern Reserve University in Ohio,US,sought volunteers to put the 10,000-hour rule to the test.The pair organized violinists into three groups,based on whether their tutors rated them as the best players,good players,or average players.They were then told to record how long they practiced every week.

24、They found that the “ average ” players had around 6,000 hours of practice.tHhoewreewvears, little separating the good from the best musicians.Both groups had approximately 11,000 hours of practice by the age of 20.In all,the number of hours spent practicing accounted for about a quarter of the skil

25、l difference across the three groups. Once you get to the highly skilled groups,practice stops accounting for the difference,Mannamaratold the Guardian.Smaller factors then determine who goes on to that superelite level. The factors depend on the skill being learned:in chess it could be intelligence

26、 or working memory,in sport it may be how efficiently a person use oxygen,she said.She also pointed out the factor of motivation and the interactions of different factors.Ralf Krampe,a co-author of the 1993 study,disagrees,saying the quality of practice and teaching does matter“.I still consider del

32、agedy（ 悲剧） brings,but she also had a powerful response to despair that gave herthe happiness that doesnt depend on what happens.She wrote online daily,honestly sharing the details of her situation.She wrote that even though it was difficult to move,this gave her more time to notice small things.She
