11、 87 years. Is it time to bring some new blood to the banknote?The non-profit organization called Women on 20s is campaigning to put a womans face on American money. Barbara Ortiz Howard, the companys founder, would like to see a woman on the $20 bill by 2020.That year marks the 100-year anniversary

12、of the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution, which gave women the right to vote.Howard got the idea when she realized that her daughter had no everyday reminders of famous women in history. She asked her friend Susan Ades Stone, a journalist, to join her cause. “Part of the aim is to edu

13、cate as many people as possible about as many women as possible,” Ades says. “We want to see how many people we can reach.”American money values the successes of former presidents and founding fathers. Currently, there are only two women on money: Susan BAnthony is the face of the rare dollar coin,

14、and Sacagawea can be seen on the gold dollar coin. There are no women on paper bills.With help from writers and historians, Howard and Stone came up with a voting list featuring 15 important women. Ades says there is a standard for choosing candidates. They look at the womens contributions to our wo

15、rld, and at what challenges they faced.More than 72,000 people have voted so far in the poll. Ades says the competition has narrowed to a “very close race”, but wont say whos in the lead. After two rounds of voting, Women on 20s will send their campaign to the White House for consideration. The fina

22、created a system that supports electronic authentication(身份验证) and digital signatures. It provides paperless communications for both the government and private industry.However, there are a few things that one cannot do electronically in Estonia: marry, end a marriage or buy and sell property. That

23、is only because the government has decided it is very important to show up in person for some big life events. When Estonia declared independence from the former Soviet Union in 1991, it had to build a new economy. Government leaders looked for an industry where the country could compete. They decid

24、ed on information technology and the Internet.When the poor country needed to replace a 1930s phone system, former President Toomas Hendrik Ilves rejected the offer of a free analog(模拟) system from Finland and argued for a digital one.Last year, information and communications made up 5.9 percent of

25、the economy.

30、s! Why would anyone even think of putting kids to such cruelty. Experts say it improves their health and helps fight obesity. While that may seem a little far-fetched (牵强的), the officials at the few schools around the world seem to agree.Among them are educators from the College Station Independent

31、School District in Texas, who recently completed a week-long experiment involving 480 students across three elementary schools. The 374 kids that agreed to participate in the study were provided a device that helped record step count and calorie consumption over the entire period.All 25 teachers inv

32、olved in the study reported that students appeared to be more alert and concentrate better, when allowed to stand. The one thing that did surprise the researchers was that younger kids were more willing to stay standing than kids in higher grades. They believe this may have something to do with the

33、fact that after years of being asked to “sit still”, older kids have a harder time adjusting to this unexpected freedom.American schools are not the only ones reporting success with stand-up desks. Four schools in Perth, Australia, which have been testing them since October 2013, have seen similar r

34、esults.

40、nage a program to improve nutrition in her country. At that time, most advice on nutrition came from North American and European countries. Nutritionists suggested foods that were common and worked well for people who lived in these nations.For example, they told poor Indian women to eat more meal a

41、nd eggs and drink more orange juice. But Lakshmi knew this advice was useless in a country like India. People there didnt eat such foods. They werent easy to find. And for the poor, such foods were too expensive.Lakshmi knew that for the program to work, it had to fit Indian culture. So she decided

42、to adjust the nutrition program. She first found out what healthy middle-class people in India ate. She took note of the nutrients (营养物）available in those foods. Then she looked for cheap, easy-to-find foods that would provide the same nutrients.She created a balanced diet of locally grown fruits, v

43、egetables, and grains. These foods were cheap and could be cooked with simple equipment. Her ideas were thought unusual in the 1960s.
