After all

11、, sex symbols James Dean and Humphrey Bogart were rarely seen without a cigarette. However, the latest evidence shows that smoking actually makes you less attractive to the opposite sex. Wrinkles from smoking a cigarette may be to blame for people judging non-smokers to be better-looking.This was th

12、e result of a study asking more than 500 people to pick the most attractive of twins where one smoked and the other did not. Men found female non-smokers the most attractive in two-thirds of cases, while women chose non-smoking men as the most attractive 68 percent of the time.Professor Ian Penton-V

13、oak, a co-author of the study from Bristol University, said, “People assume that smoking causes damage to the skin and appearance, but this is a really neat way of looking at it because these twins are genetically identical, so we can control for genetic factors involved in ageing. Appearance seems

15、, while the chemicals in tobacco smoke damage collagen and elastin, fibres which give the skin its elasticity (弹性).The wrinkles this causes are added to by facial expressions made when smoking such as pursing the lips when inhaling (吸气) or squinting to keep smoke out of your eyes.1、Why does the auth

19、vaccine patch (疫苗贴) in a human clinical trial and found that it delivered as much protection as a traditional injection with a needle. Doctors and public health experts have high hopes that it will increase the number of people who get immunized (免疫的) against the flu.Seasonal flu is responsible for

20、up to half a million deaths around the world each year according to the World Health Organization. A team led by Georgia Tech engineer Mark Prausnitz has come up with another method that uses “microneedles”. These tiny needles are so small that 100 of them, arranged in order on a patch, can fit unde

The groups that got patches had mild skin reactions that were not seen in the regular needle group, while the volunteers in the regular needle group were more likely to ex

The study authors declared it a success on all fronts.The biggest beneficiaries could be people in low- and middle-income countries, where flu vaccines are h

Reducing pain is nice, but other benefitsthe patch costs less，is easier to transport, doesnt require refrigeration, can be self-administered and doesnt cause waste of needles-are even better.“Microneedle Patches have the potential to become ideal candidates for vaccination programs,”

Chen TianQiao, one of the Chinese billionaires, g

27、ave away $115 million to the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) to help promote brain research. Chen has been interested in the brain research, believing it can advance the industries of artificial intelligence and virtual reality. However, this huge donation has caused heated discussion a

28、mong Chinese scholars and internet users.Many criticized him for giving money to a foreign university rather than domestic institutes for brain research, which are developing fast and are catching up with the US in just a few years. RaoYi, a biologist at Peking University, even said the donation was

29、 a typical mistake.Others, however, support his choice. They believe Caltech is a more reasonable choice compared with Chinese research Institutes. Caltech has a long history and has taken a leading position in biology, and therefore it produces more efficient results. Whats more, the results of the

30、 research will benefit not only the Americans, but also the rest of the world.A similar controversial（有争议的）case started two years ago when Pan ShiYi, chairman of SOHO China, donated $15 million to Harvard University to help disadvantaged Chinese Students.Many believe that China is still far behind i

31、n management and use of donated money, and that as a result, Chinese donators are looking abroad. In comparison, Western countries like the US, which have a long history of donating money, have well-developed systems that use money efficiently. They can also provide full access for donors who want t

32、o track the use of the money. To get more donations, Chinese universities should be braver and more honest.

She was visiting an antique shop and the owner wiped down every item before showing it. The newcomer said, “Everything gets dusty here pretty quickly, doesnt

38、 it?” “Thats not dust, honey,” the shop owner replied, “Thats ENCIIANTMENT”. That made the problem more acceptable or at least can be live with. An escalator (自动扶梯) broke, so he posted a sign to warn customers. He chose not to use the traditional “Out of Order” or “Do Not Use” warnings. Instead, his

39、 sign read, “This Escalator Is Temporarily a Stairway”. He turned a minus into humor and made it a plus.And in fact there arc sonic things, like the weather, we cant change.
