How do you spend your time when youre alone? Do you turn up your music as loud as you can and listen to your own entertainment? Do you buy yourself the biggest steak you could find and sit down to a good meal? It has been my observation that these activities can be the best type of therapy for a troubled mind. It is crucial for humans to find some solitude in life. They must find some time to let the universe go spinning on without others interruption. The portion of this world that belongs to one person is increasingly becoming smaller. And whatever we have we must share with others. Therefore, our ability to maintain a healthy balance between social interaction and personal pursuits is being challenged. Inspiration in solitude is a major commodity not only for poets and philosophers but for ordinary people as well. A healthy adult needs alone-time-time to reflect on what is truly important to them. When you are alone, you can stretch out your soul until it fills up the whole room, and use your freedom, moving at your own pace. However, its important to stay rational. Dont forget that in order to be a healthy part of other lives, you must yourself be healthy.你怎样度过你的时间当你孤单吗？你把音乐的声音可以听你自己的娱乐？你给自己买你能找到和坐下来吃一顿最大的牛排？据我观察发现，这些活动可以是最好的一个困扰的心灵。人类的生活中找到一些至关重要的是。他们必须找到一些时间让宇宙去纺纱在没有别人。这个世界的一部分，一个人是越来越小。无论我们做我们必须与其他人。因此，我们维持社会和个人追求健康的平衡受到挑战的能力。独处的灵感是诗人和哲学家的主要不但是对于普通人一样。一个健康的成年人需要“独处的时间”；时间对什么是真正重要的是他们。当你孤单的时候，你可以从你的灵魂，让它充满整个房间，用你的自由，你可以按自己的节奏行动。然而，重要的是要保持。别忘了，为了别人的生命健康的一部分，你必须自己是健康的。6In the past several years, many new stories about corporate greed have come to surface. The illegal practices of some executives have negatively impacted our economy. What makes this worse is that these executives seem to have the consent of some political leaders. Some of the executives even bribe lawmakers. Recently a member of congress from California was caught demanding gifts from interest group in exchange for supporting new laws. A few top leaders in the government are under investigation for illegal activities. This doesnt even scratch the surface of the problem. A few years back a company made many purposeful accounting errors to fool investors. Many believe that one reason the problem became so big was that our nations top leaders shielded the company. By the time the truth was unveiled ,many innocent people had lost their entire savings. There seems to be more and more companies that exploited the publics trust for their own interests. This calls for laws and strict regulations to put the illegal practice to an end.在过去的几年中，许多企业的贪婪的新闻故事来表。一些高管的非法行为已经影响了我们的经济。让事情变得更糟的是，这些高管们似乎都有一些政治领导人。一些高管甚至议员。最近，一个来自加利福尼亚州的国会议员被要求从利益集团支持的新法律的礼物。在政府的一些高级领导人在进行非法活动。这不是问题的表面。几年前，一个公司取得了许多有欺骗投资者的错误。许多人认为，一个理性的问题变得如此之大，我们的国家的最高领导人，公司。通过事实的时候，许多无辜的人失去了他们所有的积蓄。似乎有越来越多的公司，公众的信任，为自己的利益。这就要求法律严格规定将非法行医的结束。7I have read THE HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHYOF HUMAN GENES by Luca Cavalli-Sforza but still have some questions.Even though the findings seemingly prove that races are essentially equal on a genetic level,there are differences unexplained .it was Darwin who first advanced the theory of natural selection.His notion was that certain characteristics that help that species survive are selected over generations by that species.The species does not consciously make the choice for genetic perference.Instead,by surviving longer and being more fruitful,membersof that species with the preferred genes gredually become the dominant breed.We may,as a species,all have commenced our existence in one location,but this was long long ago.Factors such as climate and other survival necessities have created needs for evolution.I believe these factors have contributed to races evolving with different attributes.This explains the phenomena such as Asians receiving better science and math scores.It also sheds light on why there are so many excellent athletes from Africa.I understand that this is a particularly controversial statement .This especially true in an age when races are mixing and the peoples of this plant are attempting to learn to live together.我读了路卡卡瓦里-斯福尔扎写的人类基因的历史与地理分布 之后，还有一些问题没解决。虽然调查结果似乎证明了种族在基因水平上本来就是平等的，但它们仍然存在着不能解释的不同之处。是达尔文最先发现了进化论。他的观点是：帮助物种存活的特质是由物种世代选择的。物种不是有意识地根据基因的优势做选择。相反，由于活得更长，并且变得更多产，那些有着优势基因的物种成员逐渐变成主导的品种。作为物种，我们也许都在某一地点开始生存，但那已经是很久很久之前。一些因素，类似气候和其他生存必需品，创造了进化的需要。我相信这些因素有助于不同性质的种族进化。这解释了某些现象，诸如亚洲人科学和数学更好。这也对为什么这么多优秀的运动员来自非洲做出了解释。我明白这是个非常有争议的叙述。特别是在这个种族融合，地球上的人们试图一起生活的时代。1“So you want to be a rock and roll star?” asked the musician, Bob Dylan. You have decided to seek fames spotlight. And you will not be persuaded otherwise. What is it that lures you? Is it the worshipping fans? Or is it simply to be recognized for being truly fantastic at something? This is all quite understandable. I should warn you, though. It is difficult to sustain the publics favor. These people will grow bored so easily. Even if you should succeed, you might not be happy. Once you win in your conquest of fame, complaints will follow. For example, people will say that your work fails to show a lack of continuity in its appeal. You see, their enthusiasm will soon dissolve. I should also tell you that there will be plenty of people who will want to exploit you during your brief stay at the top. Friends? Sure, as long as you have money youll have friends who will suck everything you have out of you. And dont forget to watch your agent closely. You might need a good lawyer and an accountant, but they too will want their piece of the pie-making money out if you.I see, you understand the cruelty of the situation. However, your chase for fame cant be discouraged by my pessimistic outlook. Go ahead then. Dont let me stop you. But when you fail or fall right back where you started and youre miserable, dont accuse me of not having warned you. Ive done all that I can for you.“所以你要成为一个摇滚明星吗?“问这位音乐家,围兜迪伦。你已经决定寻求名利的聚光灯下。,你就不会被说服这些人。是什么吸引你?这是敬拜的粉丝吗?或者只是被认可为真正奇妙的东西吗?这都是可以理解的。我应当警告你,虽然。很难保持公众的支持。这些人会那么容易厌倦了。即使你要成功,你可能不会满意,一旦你赢得在你征服名声,投诉会跟随。例如,人们会说,你的工作未能显示出缺乏连续性在上诉。你看,他们的热情很快就会溶解。我也应该告诉你,会有很多人会想利用你在你短暂的停留在顶部。朋友吗?当然,只要你有钱,你就会有朋友会吸你的一切。别忘了看你的代理密切。您可能需要一个好律师和会计,但他们也想分pie-making你的钱。我看到你理解了残忍的情况。然而,你的追逐名利不能劝阻我的悲观前景。然后继续。不要偈人我停止你。但当你失败的秋天回到出发的地方和你的悲惨,不要指责我没有警告过你。我做了我所能给你的。2It is doubtful that there was a more successful comedy team in the 20th century than Three Stooges. Larry, Moe, and Curly became famous for their many short movies featuring extraordinary comedy. In their movies, they found many ways of showing off funny actions. They attracted large audience and received a lot of applause. However, their movies also sparked criticism. Some people who didnt like the Three Stooges claimed they were too violent. In a TV interview Moe and Larry were roused to defend themselves. Their coarse brand, they said, shouldnt be taken seriously. It was just cartoon violence.The Stooges got their name and their start in an act called Ted Healy and his Stooges. This act began paving the way for their exceedingly successful career. Originally, the team was composed of Larry, Moe and Shemp. However, Shemp left for a career in more serious movies. When Shemp left, Curly took his place. Shemps clumsy character returned in 1946 after Curly encountered a stroke.Moe was the heart and soul of the team, acting as both their main comic force and their director. He was responsible for scripting many of the jokes. Hed also spend time providing his services as their business manager. In 1934 the team began a series of comedy shorts that numbered more than 200 when they ceased in 1958, which won them numerous fans. Despite all the criticism, the Three Stooges are undoubtedly the most famous comedy team that history ever invented.3The challenges faced by all child protection caseworkers are obvious. What is often not so obvious are the many rewards a caseworker career offers. People often ask why anybody in their right mind would want to be a child protection caseworker, habitually dealing with the most disadvantaged and troubled families in their community. Caseworkers routinely come across disturbing cases of child abuse and neglect, and clients who are not cooperative. Being a caseworker means being an agent of positive change, especially when the welfare sector is not just a job to you, but a professional vocation.Child protection is a difficult and challenging career path to follow, but the rewards do exist. Many of our caseworkers choose this career path out of a desire to contribute to the community. To be part of a process can ultimately change a familys life, and caseworkers may witness their intervention equip a young person so that his or her future prospects are improved. Of course, this does not occur with every intervention. But when it happens, it is a(n) rewarding experience. And if you are wondering whether this experience makes the job worthwhile, then the answer is YES!A good indicator of how outside people look at the caseworker career has been the feedback from university students. In 2006 there were 118 students on placements (实习) of caseworker career. Those students who completed their placements in child protection in 2006 told us about the great opportunity they have had to apply theory to practice; the many chances of learning new skills and trying new tasks; the sound knowledge available through training; the willingness of caseworkers to talk about their experiences; and how valuable becoming familiar with different welfare services was to their future career.4We are living in the age of a telecommunications revolution. In order to keep from getting left behind, many developing countries are making an intensive effort to strengthen their telecommunications infrastructure. This will help them catch up with the developed countries. It was, after all, advanced telecommunications that gave some countries an economic advantage over others during the 20th century. There is one place that developing nations are looking to improve upon. That is enabling their citizens and businesses to get access to the Web. They are installing advanced optical fibers. These fibers, a millimeter in diameter, can bring the information superhighway to their door. The initial investments that countries like Vietnam are making may seem too great because they still lack basic utilities, like electricity and water. However, government officials say that these moves are strategic. They are also confident that their countries will reap the benefits. They will benefit from having more reliable and up-to-date telecommunications equipment and gaining more revenues. One Vietnamese leader said, It is understandable that people want to tackle their immediate problems first. Still, our entire future is at stake. People dont always understand the breadth of the problem, though. He continued, There are problems with using the antique communications equipment. And if we continue to use such old equipment, the gap between us and the developed world will continue to widen. sacrifices have to be made now so that our children will have a country with opportunities equal to those they see in the developed world. It will not be far when they can cruise alongside Americans and Western Europeans on the information superhighway.5Have you ever experienced living alone by yourself?Sunlight disappears, awakening me to the fact that I am alone. I am a solitary observer on this isolated pond in the forest. Here I sit alone as the last light of day fades away. A lone wolf in the distance cries out. Then darkness creeps in around me. I return to my small hut to put the kettle on the stove and sit in solitude with a hot cup of tea until I want to sleep. The fire inside the stove is low, so I use the axe to split some wood and throw them in. It gets the fire going. I had made preparations in supplies. However, after a month I am already lacking in supplies. I didnt expect I would be tired of this experience so soon. In the cupboards there is nothing but noodles, and half a pint of wine. I have become so sick of noodles. Still, I have to force myself to choke them down. As I bring the teacup t
