(5)When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school.

(10)测试智商是要查出这个人，他是怎么样，他是怎么样行为，而不是他知道了多少。(11)那我们现在的教育更多方面的是告诉了你是什么，然后以知道多少，在试卷上反映出多少来衡量，而没有给出一个实际情况，来考查他实际解决问题的能力。(12)以前我们有个高老师告诉我们要，learn to be和learn to do is the most important thing，而不光指是你积累了多少知识。(13)For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. (14)这部分在举例子说明。(15)When in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation not about himself or what might happen to him.

(18)哦，他试图去发现他所能做的，然后积极地行动起来去解决问题。(19)这就想到了以前的一个心理老师说，在遇到问题时，不是应该回避，或者一直在想怎么办，而是要理出一个头绪，知道我现在唯一能做的事情是什么，然后立即付诸行动。(20)He probably isn't sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. 他可能不知道会有什么用，但他至少行动了，试过了。(21)这个，以前不知哪个名人说过一句话，如果我无所畏惧，我会怎么样去做，大概就有点这个意思。(22)And, if he can't make things work out right, he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. (23)这句话我很赞同，就是在做错事情的时候，一点都不要觉得羞愧的，至少我试过，我没有什么可后悔的。(24)好，再往下看。(25)An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.

By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do. For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn't sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And if he can't make things work out right, he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.

问答题greenhouse gas emissions

问答题At the World Bank in Washington, officials have posted some new " help wanted" signs. The bank is looking for a few good specialists to focus on adapting to global warming. It"s a small start, perhaps. 46. Still, the ads represent one signal that adaptation is emerging from the political circle to take its place among the fronl-rank options for dealing with elilnate change. 47. At least in the developed world, the idea that people should start figuring out how to deal with the projected effects of warming has been overshadowed by calls to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions. Some environmentalists have viewed adaptation either as a white flag on the issue or as a refuge of cont rarians who despise the broad consensus that human activity is warming the climate. 48. But last week"s release of a report on the science of global warming—with its projections of warming based on emissions already in the air, as well as on potential future emissions trends—has helped underscore the need. " Climate change is here and now," notes Ian Noble, a senior climatechange specialist at the World Bank. "We have to adapt. " In some cases, adaptation can be politically wrenching. Australia, for example, is facing the worst drought in a century. The drought"s length and severity is.consistent with some projections of global warming, several scientists note. The national government has proposed a controversial, $2.5-billion (Australian) plan to wrest control of the withering Murray-Darling river basin—the country"s largest river system--from the four states in eastern Australia that draw water from it. 49. Meanwhile, Queensland has adopted regulations that since last March have required each new home in the state to draw nearly 40 percent less water than pre-2006 homes. In some towns, building codes specify the installation of large holding tanks to capture and store rain for use in the gardens and to flush toilets. If Australia represents the dry end of the adaptation spectrum in the develop world, New Orleans and the Gulf Coast may well represent the wet end. The region is still struggling to recover from hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005. 50. The tragedy surrounding those two storms underline just how maladapted major population centers in the region are to today"s conditions, let acme those that might hold in 2050 or 2100, experts say. "The reality is that we should be adapting " and tackling carbon-dioxide emissions at the same time, notes Roger Pielke Jr. , a science-policy specialist at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

问答题At the start of the 21st century, humankind finds itself on a non-sustainable course—the course that, unless it is changed, could lead to grand scale catastrophes. At the same time, we are unlocking formidable new capabilities mat lead to more exciting lives and glorious civilizations. This could be either humanity's last century or the century that sets the world on a course toward a spectacular future. (1) We live on a small, beautiful and a totally isolated planet, but its population is becoming too large; enormous new consumer societies are growing, of which China is the largest; and technology is becoming powerful enough to wreck the planet. (2) We are traveling at breakneck speed into an age of the extremes—extremes in wealth and poverty, extremes in technology and the experiments that scientists want to perform, extreme forces of globalism, weapons of mass destruction and terrorists acting in the name of religion. If we are to survive, we have to learn how to manage this situation. Formidable problems confront us, but this is a book about solutions—many solutions. With these solutions we will bring about the change in course, a great 21st century transition. (3) If we get it right, we have an extraordinary future. If we get it wrong, we face an irreversible disruption that could set humanity back centuries. A drastic change is needed in the first half of that 21st century to set the stage for extraordinary events in the rest of the century. (4) Humankind has been able to thrive for thousands of years because nature provided it with resources like topsoil, underground water, fish in the oceans, minerals, oil and wetlands, but these resources are finite, like cookies in a jar. We are using up many of these resources, and some don't have substitutes. During the lifetime of today's teenagers, fresh water will run out in many parts of the world, making food production difficult. Many fish species will be too depleted to replenish themselves. Global warming will bring hurricanes far more severe than Katrina and will cause natural climate- control mechanisms to go wrong. Rising temperatures will lower crop yields in many of the world's poorest countries, such as those in central Africa, (5) The immense tensions brought about by such catastrophes will occur in a time of extremism, religious belligerence and suicidal terrorism, and this will coincide with terrible weapons becoming much less expensive and more widely available.' This interconnected set of problems has an interconnected set of solutions. If we humans implement these solutions, we can gradually achieve sustainable development and a sustainable but affluent life.

问答题Every human society has its own particular culture, or sociocultural system, which overlaps to some extent with other systems. Variation among sociocultural systems is attributable to physical habitats and resources; to the range of possibilities inherent in various areas of activity, such as language, rituals and customs, and the manufacture and use of tools, and to the degree of social development. Adaptation and change take place within and among cultures by means of ecological and environmental changes.

问答题In a field of that distant, half-neglected farm, I found an avenue of great elms leading to nothing. But I could see where the wheat-bearing earth had been levelled into a terrace; and in one comer there were broken, overgrown, gateposts, almost hid among great straggling trees. This, then, was the place I had come to see. Here had stood the great house or palace, with its terraces, and gardens, and artificial waters; this field had once been the favourite resort of Eighteenth-century Fashion; the Duchess and Beauties had driven hither in their gilt coaches. And although the house had long since vanished, and the plough had gone over its pleasant places, yet for a moment I seemed to see this fine company under the green of that great avenue and hear the gossip of their voices as they passed on into the shadows.

问答题Globally, most smokers start smoking before the age of 18, with almost a quarter of those beginning before the age of 10. The younger children are when they first try smoking, the more likely they are to become regular tobacco users and the less likely they are to quit.A strong link between advertising and smoking in young people has been proven. The more aware and appreciative young people are of tobacco advertising, the more likely they are to smoke or say they intend to. In response to this threat, World No Tobacco Day campaigns for a total ban on all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship by the tobacco industry.

问答题Technology and Intellectual Property: Problems and Solutions Access to low-carbon technologies in the developing world does not mean doing away with Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs). This has been the most emotive and appears the thorniest of issues. It should not be. 1 . The concerns of the developing world are principally about whether they will have access to technologies at fair or affordable prices, which are being pressed on them by the developed countries. The perceived issue may be hypothetical in many situations. Having no IPRs, or compulsory licensing—with the consequent risk of free-riding—is not the solution. 2 . For most technologies, patents are not filed in the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), because the small potential markets do not justify the cost of obtaining patents there . In such cases domestic companies are free to use the invention in that country, but not for expect to a country where there is patent protection. Therefore, LPRs are unlikely to be inhibiting within these LDCs. If LDC manufacturers are permitted—through compulsory licensing—to manufacture for sale in a country where there is patent protection (for commercial reasons), then it will damage the incentive structure that IPRs create and should not easily be permitted. 3 . Companies generally sell at differentially low prices in the LDCs provided that there is no leakage of these products back into their main markets, where they will sell at higher prices . The World Trade Organisation"s 2001 Doha Declaration provided for this in the case of pharmaceuticals. Some countries, such as Japan, would need to change their laws and regulations to prevent such trade. If there are relevant IPRs which do inhibit otherwise legitimate take-up in the developing countries, there are several solutions: ·If the IPRs are publicly held, local LDC companies could receive a geographically limited license, at preferential or zero cost. 4 . This would not significantly damage the broader objective of promoting investment by the private sector in low-carbon technologies and products for use in countries where they will have a bigger carbon-reduction impact on reducing global carbon emissions. ·If the IPRs are privately held, there are several solutions: their use can be paid for or subsidised by governments; they can be paid for subsidised by charities. Compulsory licensing is also possible. Compulsory licensing is permitted in most countries (except the US) as an exceptional measure in cases of abuse of monopoly or a national emergency, to limit the ability of an IPR owner to stop others from using the IPRs. Its use is constrained by WTO agreement and is intended to be used as a policy of last resort. A reasonable royalty must be paid to the IPR owner. So compulsory licensing is not a low- or zero-cost option. Compulsory licensing is permitted in Europe but there are no recorded examples of its use. 5 . It is generally regarded as a "nuclear option" by both governments and business, which will come an agreement without its use being invoked.

问答题In the past year, a lot has changed in the field of human spaceflight. (46) In January, President George Bush brushed aside the fact that America's entire space-shuttle fleet was grounded when he announced grandiose plans to put people back on the moon, and then to launch a manned mission to Mars. (47) In June, Butt Rutan, an American aeronautical engineer, showed that human spaceflight was no longer the preserve of governments by sending a man to the edge of space in Space Ship One, a privately financed vehicle that cost about the same to build as a luxury yacht. That was followed in September by Sir Richard Branson, the British entrepreneur behind the Virgin brand, announcing that he had signed a deal with Mr Rutan to work on plans for a fleet of five suborbital vehicles developed from Space Ship One. (48) Now, in the dying days of the year, America's Congress has passed a bill that unravels a tangle about who would be responsible for regulating the fledgling industry, and under what terms. (49) The bill also allows passengers to fly on the understanding that this new generation of vehicles may not be as safe as taking a commercial flight between, say, New York and London. The official line from Virgin Galactica, as Sir Richard's latest venture is modestly named, is that this coming change in the law makes no practical difference to the firm's plans, since they do not intend to fly unless they can make their spacecraft as safe as a private jet. But it must surely come as some sort of relief. In any case, Will Whitehorn, director of corporate affairs at Virgin's headquarters in London, and soon to become the president of Virgin Galactica, says that work is under way on a mock up of the interior of a new spacecraft that will hold five passengers. (50) Virgin has already committed $20m towards licensing the SpaceShipOne technology from Mr. Rutan and his financial backer Paul Allen, a software billionaire.
