11、e-mail from Linkedln: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!” You arent necessarily searching for a job, but youre always open to opportunities, so out of curiosity, you click on the link. A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk. “Weve noticed that youre spending more time

12、on Linkedln lately, so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether youre happy here,” she says. Uh-oh.Its an awkward scene. Attrition (损耗）has always been expensive for companies, but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising, owing to tight labor markets. Thus companie

13、s are intensifying(增强）their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them. Tactics (策略）range from electronic monitor to sophisticated(复杂的）analyses of employees social media lives.Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit. In gener

14、al, people leave their jobs because they dont like their boss, dont see opportunities for promotion or growth, or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.New research conducted by CEB, a Washington-based technology company, looks not just at why workers quit but also at wh

16、to make these comparisons.”Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit. Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from) career websites, and research shows that more firms are paying a

17、ttention to these things.

21、nious picture. So it really raises some eyebrows when China announces plans to build an airport that is for birds.Described as the worlds first-ever bird airport, the proposed Lingang Bird Sanctuary(保护区）in the northern coastal city of Tianjin is, of course,not an actual airport. Rather，its a wetland

22、 preserve specifically designed to accommodate hundreds-even thousands-of daily takeoffs and landings by birds traveling along the East Asian-Australian Flyway. Over 50 species of migratory (迁徙的）water birds，some endangered, will stop and feed at the protected sanctuary before continuing their long j

23、ourney along the flyway.Located on a former landfill site，the 150-acre airport is also open to human travelers.(Half a million visitors are expected annually.) However，instead of duty-free shopping，the main attraction for non-egg-laying creatures at Tianjins newest airport will be a green-roofed edu

24、cation and research center, a series of raised “observation platforms” and a network of scenic walking and cycling paths totaling over 4 miles.“The proposed Bird Airport will be a globally significant sanctuary for endangered migratory bird species, while providing new green lungs for the city of Ti

25、anjin.” Adrian McGregor of an Australian landscape architecture firm explained of the design.

29、lp them remember to take their medicine. That is the shared dream of the toy maker Hasbro and scientists at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.

30、icial intelligence, or AI., to Hasbros “Joy for All” robotic cat.The cat has already been for sale for two years. Though priced over 1000 dollars, it sold quite well. It was meant to act as a “companion” for older people. Now the project is aimed at developing additional abilities for the cat. Resea

31、rchers at Browns Humanity-Centered Robotics Initiative are working to decide which activities older adults may need the most. They hope to make the cat perform a small number of activities very well. Such activities include finding lost objects and reminding the person to take medicine or visit thei

33、err. The cat stays with Derr and keeps her calm while Eliot is at work. Elliot said a robotic cat that helps her mother to remember to take her medicine and be careful when he walks would be greater.The researchers are trying to learn how the improved cats will complete helpful activities and how th

34、ey will communicate. They say that they do not want a talking cat, however. Instead they are trying to design a cat that can move its head in a special way to successfully communicate its message. In the end, they hope to create an exchangebetween the human and the cat in which the human feels the c

40、耳) of UV a square meter compared to 658 kilojoules in snow-covered areas.The findings are supported by the Japan Meteorological (气象的) Agency. According to the agency, the reflection rate of UV light on beaches is often between 10 and 25 percent, compared to 80 percent in the new snow areas. The amou

41、nt of light increased 4 percent with a 300-meter rise in height.Most of us know that UV rays can harm the skin. Thats why we wear sunscreen on our skin before we get out in the sun.

42、UV radiation over a short period of time, you may experience a kind of sunburn of the eye, which is harmful. Your eyes will become red and feel a strange feeling. They may be sensitive to light.

Chances are that i

48、ts green. So whats up with the name? Originally, blackboards were really black. Before wall-sized blackboards existed, late 18th-century students used their own mini boards made of slate(石板)or painted wood, according to Concordia University, Those first boards were, in fact. black, and they paved th

49、e way for the larger ones.In 1800 when a Scottish headmaster named James Pillans wanted his students to draw maps, the students couldnt draw the maps their teacher wanted on their tiny boards, so Pillans put several slates together to create a large board. Problem solved! From there, the idea spread

50、 quickly as teachers could finally show a concept to the whole class at one time. By 1815, the massive writing spaces were common enough to earn their own name: blackboard.The color change came in the 1960s when companies sold, steel plates, coated with green enamel(漆) instead of the traditional dar

51、k slate. The new material was lighter and less fragile than the first blackboards, so they were cheaper to ship and more likely to survive the journey. Teachers werent complaining either.
