问答题1. Ever since the financial tsunami swept all before it in September 2008, many people have saved furiously. That"s a good thing, but there"s a temptation to lose that discipline once the storm clouds start to break.
While the economy remains fragile and many people are still out of work, signs of recovery are becoming more and more apparent. Among your New Year"s resolutions include a savings goal that is a function of your regular income, even if it"s not a large amount of money.
Maintaining the discipline is crucial. The amount of savings can grow over time.
2. Advice on how to save for retirement or your kids college is plentiful. Less plentiful is guidance on what kind of rainy-day fund you should have.
3. A rainy-day fund, which your savings plan can feed, should cover about six months of income. It"s a form of personal insurance, valuable in these rapidly changing times.
This fund should be kept in safe and easy-to-tap assets. Laddering certificates of deposit out six months is one way.
问答题The conifer hedges in front of J. K. Rowling"s seventeenth-century house, in Edinburgh, are about twenty feet tall. They reach higher than the street lamps in front of them, and evoke the entrance to the spiteful maze in the film adaptation of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", the fourth volume of her fantasy series. Rowling, who, at forty-seven, is about to publish her first novel for adults—it is set in a contemporary Britain familiar with Jay-Z and online pornography, but is shaded with memories of her own, quite cheerless upbringing—lives here with her second husband, Neil Murray, a doctor, and their children. She has a reputation for reserve: for being likable but shy and thin-skinned, and not at all comfortable with the personal impact of having created a modern myth, sold four hundred and fifty million books, and inspired more than six hundred thousand pieces of Harry Potter fan fiction, a total that increases by at least a thousand stories a week.

The magnitude of the problem of disappearing species, viewed
worldwide, dwarfs resources currently available to address it. By the end of the
century, experts predict, one species will be lost every hour. Faced with
shrinking budgets and accelerating extinction rates, environmental managers
agonize over which species to save. (1) {{U}}Different criteria for placing value
on species--ecological, economic, aesthetic, cultural--compete with one another,
and controversy abounds{{/U}}. One proposal for sidestepping direct debates about
the value of species is to adopt a system of triage, which takes its name from
the French policy of sorting wartime casualties into three categories for
medical treatment: those with superficial wounds that do not require immediate
attention; those with wounds too serious to make treatment efficacious; and
those in the middle range, having serious but treatable wounds.
Once the issue is formulated in this manner, it seems obvious that efforts
toward species preservation are best concentrated in the third category. (2)
{{U}}Scarce funds and energies should be targeted at saving those species that are
both in need of saving and susceptible to being saved{{/U}}. But the most
arresting formulation of an issue is not always the most illuminating one; (3)
{{U}}it will be useful to stand back from the triage formulation (三级分类法), which
casts the problem of setting priorities as one of sorting species into
categories, and ask whether there are other, more fruitful ways to look at the
problem{{/U}}. The endangered species problem is not a single
problem. It is more accurately seen as four closely related problems: what
should be done when a species' population becomes so depleted as to threaten its
continued existence; (4) {{U}}what should be done to keep relatively healthy
populations from declining and thereby falling into the threatened category{{/U}};
how to avert, or at least slow, the predicted and potentially cataclysmic
reduction of biological diversity over the next few decades; and how to slow the
trend toward conversion of natural systems to intense human use?
In the triage formulation the priorities problem is most naturally
associated with the first question, because it considers threats to individual
species. (5) {{U}}Once threatened, species require management initiatives designed
to protect and nurture them, individually{{/U}}. But the goal of protecting
biological diversity should not be reduced to the goal of protecting remnant
populations of threatened species. If one thinks about the endangered species
problem in this way, there is a tendency to treat it as merely a problem of
protecting genetic diversity, with each species regarded as a repository for a
set of genes.

问答题Intelligence quotients (IQs) testing is controversial and regarded by some as a crude indicator of ability or potential. When comparing nations, measured average IQ tends to be affected by class, nutrition, and cultural factors including education. There is also disagreement over the influences of nature and nurture.
IQs have risen in developed nations for almost a century. But in Britain, research has found a reversal of this trend. The average had declined by two points on average, but by as much as six points among teenagers in the top half of the IQ scale, a fall that wiped out the previous two decades of gains in that group.
No cause for this fall in IQs has been established: the internet, the dumbing down of education, and an obsession with exam results have been suggested. Flynn has argued that youth culture has made a contribution.

问答题Intelligence at best is an assumptive construct the meaning of the word has never been clear.
21
There is more agreement on the kinds of behavior referred to by the term than there is on how to interpret or classify them.
But it is generally agreed that a person of high intelligence is one who can grasp ideas readily, make distinctions, reason logically, and make use of verbal and mathematical symbols in solving problems. Art intelligence test is a rough measure of a child"s capacity for learning, particularly for learning the kinds of things required in school. It does not measure character, social adjustment, physical endurance, manual skills, or artistic abilities. It is not supposed to. It was not designed for such purposes.
22
To criticize it for such failure is roughly comparable to criticizing a thermometer for not measuring wind velocity.
The other thing we have to notice is that the assessment of the intelligence of any subject is essentially a comparative affair.
23
Now since the assessment of intelligence is a comparative matter we must be sure that the scale with which we are comparing our subjects provides a "valid" or "fair" comparison.
It is here that some of the difficulties which interest us begin. Any test performed involves at least three factors: the intention to do one"s best, the knowledge required for understanding what you have to do, and the intellectual ability to do it.
24
The first two must be equal for all who are being compared, if any comparison in terms of intelligence is to be made.
In school populations in our culture these assumptions can be made fair and reasonable, and the value of intelligence testing has been proved thoroughly. Its value lies, of course, in its providing a satisfactory basis for prediction. No one is in the least interested in the marks a little child gets on his test; what we are interested in is whether we can conclude from his mark on the test that the child win do better or worse than other children of his age at tasks which we think require "general intelligence".
25
On the whole such a conclusion can be drawn with a certain degree of confidence, but only if the child can be assumed to have had the same attitude towards the test as the other with whom he is being compared, and only if he was not punished by lack of relevant information which they possessed.
