时代周刊Coal Is Linked to Cancer in China ProvincePublished: January 11, 2010Nonsmoking women in an area of China‘s Y unnan province die of lung cancer at a rate 20 times that of their counterparts in other regions of the country — and higher than anywhere else in the world.A group of scientists now say they have a possible explanation: the burning of coal formed during volcanic eruptions hundreds of millions of years ago.Coal in that part of China contains high concentrations of silica, a suspected carcinogen, the scientists reported in a recent edition of the journal Environmental Science & Technology.Like others in rural China, the families of Xuanwei County use coal for heat and for cooking. As the coal burns, particles of silica are released with the vapor and inhaled. Women, who do the cooking, face the greatest exposure.―There is more silica in this coal than in 99.9 percent of all the samples we analyzed,‖ said an author of the study, Robert B. Finkelman, a professor of geology at the University of Texas at Dallas.Dr. Finkelman and his colleagues found that quartz, of which silica is the primary component, made up 13.5 percent of the coal samples taken from Xuanwei County. In normal coal samples, quartz and other minerals are found only in trace amounts.The grains of quartz were so small they were only visible through an electron microscope, Dr. Finkelman said. Strikingly, the coal found in neighboring villages did not contain quartz at the same high levels or with such fine grain.When the volcanic eruptions occurred 250 million years ago, they set off a mass extinction and released acid gases, leading to a variety of changes in the earth‘s environment, including acid rain. Dr. Finkelman speculated that the rain might have dissolved surface rocks composed of silica, which then might have worked its way into developing formations of coal.The high cancer rates in Xuanwei have attracted the attention of scientists for decades. Dr. Qing Lan, an epidemiologist at the National Cancer Institute in Rockville, Md., is completing two studies involving hundreds of women and families there. While her team is confident that coal burning is causing the high rates of cancer, they are not certain it is due to silica.She and Dr. Nathaniel Rothman, another epidemiologist at the institute, expect to finish collecting data this year and begin the tedious, multiyear process of analyzing it in hopes of isolating just what it is about the coal in Xuanwei that causes the high rates of cancer.―Y ou can never say any study is the last study,‖ Dr. Rothman said. ―But we hope th is really nails it.‖云南宣威癌症高发疑为煤炭所致云南省宣威市。

Statement of William H. Overholt1Asia Policy ChairDirector, Center for Asia Pacific PolicyThe RAND CorporationBefore the U.S.-China Economic and Security ReviewCommissionMay 19, 2005SummaryChina has transformed itself from the world’s greatest opponent ofGlobalization and greatest disrupter of the global institutions we created, into a committed member of those institutions and advocate of globalization. It is now a far more open economy than Japan and it is globalizing its institutions to a degree not seen in a big country since Meiji Japan. Adoption of the rule of law, of commitment to competition, of widespread use of English, of foreign education, and of many foreign laws and institutions are not just updating Chinese institutions but transforming Chinese civilization.中国已经由以前世界上最大的全球化反对国和全球各机构的打扰者转变成全球化的提倡者和那些机构坚定的成员国之一。
What is the most valuable contribution employees make to their companies, knowledge or judgment?I say judgment.Knowledge, no matter how broad, is useless until it is applied.<P1>And application takes judgment, which involves something of a sixth sense—a high performance of the mind.This raises interesting questions about the best training for today's business people.As Daniel Goleman suggests in his new book, <em>Emotional Intelligence</em>, the latest scientific findings seem to <P2>indicate that intelligent but inflexible people don't have the right stuff in an age when the adaptive bility is the key to survival.In a recent cover story, <em>Time</em> magazine sorted through the current thinking on intelligence and reported, "New brain research suggests that emotions, not IQ, may be the true measure of human intelligence."The basic significance of the emotional intelligence that <em>Time</em> called "EQ" was suggested by management expert Karen Boylston: "Customers are telling businesses, 'I don't care if every member of your staff graduated from Harvard. I will take my business and go where I am understood and treated with respect.'"<P3>If the evolutionary pressures of the marketplace are making EQ, not IQ, the hot ticket for business success, it seems likely that individuals will want to know how to cultivate it.I have a modest proposal: Embrace a highly personal practice aimed at improving these four adaptive skills.<em>Raising consciousness</em>.<P4>I think of this as thinking differently on purpose.<P5>It's about noticing what you are feeling and thinking and escaping the conditioned confines of your past.<P6>Raise your consciousness by catching yourself in the act of thinking as often as possible. Routinely take note of your emotions and ask if you're facing facts or avoiding them.<em>Using imagery</em>.This is what you see Olympic ski racers doing before entering the starting gate.With their eyes closed and bodies swaying, they run the course in their minds first, which improves their performance.You can do the same by setting aside time each day to dream with passion about what you want to achieve.<em>Considering and reconsidering events to choose the most creative response to them</em>. <P7>When a Greek philosopher said 2,000 years ago that it isn't events that matter but our opinion of them, this is what he was talking about.Every time something important happens, assign as many interpretations to it as possible, even crazy ones.Then go with the interpretation most supportive of your dreams.<em>Integrating the perspectives of others</em>.Brain research shows that our view of the world is limited by our genes and the experiences we've had.<P8>Learning to <1>incorporate</1> the useful perspectives of others is nothing less than a form of enlarging your senses.The next time someone interprets something differently from you—say, a controversial political event—pause to reflect on the role of life experience and consider it a gift of perception.<P9>The force of habit—literally the established wiring of your brain—will pull you away from practicing these skills.Keep at it, however, because they are based on what we're learning about the mechanism of the mind.Within the first six months of life the human brain doubles in capacity.It doubles again by age four and then grows rapidly until we reach sexual maturity.The body has about a hundred billion nerve cells, and every experience <2>triggers</2> a brain response that literally shapes our senses.The mind, we now know, is not confined to the brain but is distributed throughout the body's universe of cells.Yes, we do think with our hearts, brains, muscles, blood and bones.During a single crucial three-week period during our teenage years, chemical activity in the brain is cut in half.<P10>That done, we are "biologically wired" with what one of the nation's leading brain researchers calls our own "world view".He says it is impossible for any two people to see the world exactly alike.So unique is the personal experience that people would understand the world differently.However, it is not only possible to change your world view, he says, it's actually easier than overcoming a drug habit.<P11>But you need a discipline for doing it.Hence, the method recommended here.<P12>No, it's not a curriculum in the sense that an MBA is.But the latest research seems to imply that without the software of emotional maturity and self-knowledge, the hardware of academic training alone is worth less and less.员工对公司最有价值的贡献是什么,是知识还是判断力?我说是判断力。
摘自:《摘自:《时代周刊时代周刊》A dozen international coffee experts shuffle (把脚挪来挪去)around a long wooden table, pausing at each steaming cup, heads dipping and sniffing deeply. Then the slurping 〔吃喝或吸吮〕的声音 begins. In the wings, coffee farmer Yang Fan watches intently 专注地as the judges’ circle, awaiting a verdict (裁定)on her latest crop of beans.China may be the spiritual home of tea, but it is fast developing a reputation as a top coffee producer.This tasting was a side event to the first ever Pu'er International Specialty Coffee Expo in China's southwestern Yunnan province, which ran this winter and drew more than a thousand attendees, including industry aficiona dos(酷爱者)from across the globe."Coffee has huge potential in China," says Liu Ying, who swapped her life working in private-equity (私人股权) investment in Beijing to grow coffee in Pu'er five years ago. "The younger generation prefers to drink coffee in their offices much more than tea." Still, Pu'er remains synonymous with tea.This bustling (喧闹的)town near the Laos border is surrounded by the green hills scored with tea plantations; it produces a variety of tea which is also called Pu tea plantations; it produces a variety of tea which is also called Pu’’er , considered one of China's most refined.But the region's mild climate is also perfect for growing Arabica coffee. And as China's fast-living millennials (千禧一代)move away from traditional tea in favor of the invigorating coffee, Pu'er's farmers are catering to the demand.Yunnan accounts for 98% of China's coffee harvest, with half coming from the misty landscape around Pu'er.Today, China is the 13th biggest coffee producer in the world Today, China is the 13th biggest coffee producer in the world——rising from zero output three decades ago to 136,000 tons annually today.In April, Seattle's annual Specialty Coffee Expo decided to showcase China as its portrait country of origin.It follows on the heels of Starbucks' launching its first single-origin Yunnan coffee last year after eight years of partnership with Yunnan farmers.With global coffee prices at record lows, Yunnan farmers are processing beans in bespoke ways to create distinct flavors——allowing them to enter the market of specialty coffee.to create distinct flavors"At current coffee prices, I can't even feed my family," says the farmer Yang. "My only wayout is to produce specialty coffee, to make the best coffee beans."That means letting beans dry in their cherries, thus producing a wild, fruity flavor via environmental fermentation(发酵),or allowing them to "honey" in their sugary inner layer, which adds a subtle sweetness.Back in the tasting room, Yang awaits the experts' verdict on whether all that extra effort was worthwhile."If I told you this was Colombian or Panama coffee, nobody would argue with me," says Samuel Gurel, CEO of Pu'er's Torch Coffee Roasters, as Yang breaks into a huge grin. "It's a great example of how Chinese coffee is evolving."阅读词汇分类记I. 识读词汇(要求认识;快速反应汉语意思)1.Specialty ['spɛʃəlti]n. 专业,专长;特产;特性;招牌菜adj. 特色的;专门的;独立的His specialty is international law.他的专业是国际法。
…Back to Sleep‟: Why Are 2,500 U.S. Babies Still Dying of SIDS Each Year?‘用背部睡觉’:为什么美国每年都有2500个婴儿死于婴儿猝死综合症Putting babies on their back to sleep has dramatically reduced the number of SIDS deaths, but thousands of babies still die each year. A look at the key risk factors.让婴儿用背部睡觉戏剧性的减少了婴儿猝死综合症的死亡数量,但每年还是有上千数量的婴儿死亡。
这有一种对于关键的风险因素的看法。
There‟s no doubt that the Back to Sleep campaign launched in 1994 to get parents to stop putting babies to sleep on their tummies has been a success. In the 1970s and 1980s, the rate of infant deaths per 1,000 live births was 1.5; it‟s now 0.5.无需置疑的是,1994年发起的用背部睡觉的运动,旨在阻止父母让婴儿用肚子睡觉是成功的。
在20世纪70到80年代,婴儿死亡率为每一千名安全出生婴儿中有1.5,现在是0.5。
Within a generation, most babies are now put to bed on their backs, and yet 2,500 U.S. infants still die each year in the U.S. Researchers trying to understand why have noticed a curious byproduct of the trend towardback-sleeping: as fewer babies were being put to sleep on their bellies, more babies were documented engaging in other pediatric no-nos — sleeping with their parents, for example — which is another risk factor for SIDS.在一代人中,大部分婴儿现在都用背部放在床上,但美国每年依然有2500个婴儿死亡。
研究员正试图弄明白为什么人们会注意到用背部睡觉这种趋势的奇怪的副产品:越来越少的婴儿用腹部睡觉,越来越多的婴儿被证明参与到了一些儿科禁止的事情中——例如,和父母一起睡——这是婴儿猝死综合症的另一个风险因素。
A study published Monday in the journal Pediatrics takes a look at how risk factors for SIDS have evolved over the years. In an analysis of the 954 babies who died suddenly and unexpectedly in San Diego County between 1991 and 2008 — 568 of these deaths were attributed to SIDS — researchers found thatthe percentage of babies put to sleep on their backs increased from 30% to 85%. Meanwhile, the rate of bed-sharing at the time of a SIDS death jumped from 19% to 38%; the incidence of babies asleep in an adult bed instead of in a crib increased from 23% to 45%. Being put to sleep in a standard bed is concerning to doctors because beds generally have generous amounts of bedding — fluffy pillows and layers of blankets — which can lead to infant suffocation.周一在儿科杂志出版的一个课题研究了婴儿猝死综合症的风险因素在这些年是如何进化的。
在1991年和2008年之间的一份关于圣地亚哥出乎意料猝死的954个婴儿的分析中——死亡人数中有568人被确定死于婴儿猝死综合症——研究员发现,用背部睡觉的婴儿的百分比从30%增长到85%。
其间,婴儿猝死综合症的死亡人数中,同睡一张床所占的比例由19%跃升到38%;婴儿在大人的床上睡着而不是在婴儿床睡着的死亡发生率从23%增长到45%。
就医生而言,睡在标准床上是因为床上一般都有大量的床上用品——松软的抱枕和毛毯——这些都会导致婴儿窒息死亡。
Risk factors for SIDS include being born prematurely, being male and being exposed prenatally to alcohol or cigarettes; after birth, parents can unwittingly pile on other risk factors, such as overbundling baby or tucking him in for the night with a cozy quilt. When analyzing the data, lead author Henry Krous, a pediatric pathologist and director of the San Diego SIDS Research Project at Rady Children‟s Hospital, noticed that the number of risk factors hadn‟t actually decreased; it had just changed. “Most babies had two or more risk factors,” says Krous. “What that says to us is that Back to Sleep should emphasize multiple risk factors.”婴儿猝死综合症的风险因素包括过早出生,出生前接触酒精和香烟;出生后,父母在不知不觉中又让婴儿处在其他的风险因素上,比如婴儿捆绑过度或把他整晚压在舒适的棉被里。
当分析这些数据时,第一作者亨利克劳斯,儿科病理学家、圣地亚哥雷迪儿童医院婴儿猝死综合症研究项目主管,发现风险因素的数量实际上并没有减少;它只是改变了。
“大多数婴儿都存在两个或更多的风险因素,”克劳斯说,“这要告诉我们的是用背部睡觉运动应该强调预防多种多样的风险因素。
”In other words, Back to Sleep should stress much more than justback-sleeping. Just putting a baby on his back at bedtime is not the entire solution; parents bringing a new baby home from the hospital should be educated about avoiding baby‟s exposure to all the risk factor s for SIDS.换句话说,用背部睡觉运动应该强调更多而不仅仅只是用背部睡觉。
仅仅是让婴儿在睡觉时间用背部睡觉并不是全部的解决方法;父母从医院带回新生儿的时候就应该被教育如何避免让婴儿暴露在婴儿猝死综合症的风险因素中。
(MORE: New Guidelines: How to Put Baby Safely to Bed)新的指导方法:如何安全的把婴儿放到床上Co-sleeping, for example, is associated with a greater risk of SIDS, so much so that Milwaukee last year launched a graphic blitz against the practice, with posters showing babies asleep in adult beds right next to butcher knives. The caption: “Your baby sleeping with you can be just as dangerous.” As withalm ost any parenting practice, the issue isn‟t straightforward: proponents insist that bed-sharing — when done correctly — can be safe.例如,一起睡是婴儿猝死综合症的巨大风险的关联,以至于密尔沃基去年发起了一场形象与实践的闪电战,海报展示的是婴儿在屠夫的刀旁边的成人床里睡着了。
标题上写着:“你的孩子和你睡在一起很可能成为危险。
”就像所有的育儿实践一样,问题并不是简单的支持者坚持同床睡——只要做得正确——就可以变得安全。
Furthermore, despite the prevailing message of Back to Sleep, 30% of babies are still being put to bed on their bellies. “We still have a lot of work to do,” says Krous. “The problem isn‟t solved yet.”此外,轻视现在盛行的用背部睡觉的运动,仍有30%的婴儿还在用腹部放在床上。
