As a Floridian who's weathered his share of hurricanes, I can more than sympathize with my northeastern countrymen as they begin the lousy task of cleaning up after Sandy. But there's one commonality that stands out for me as a parent. Just as "Frankenstorm" struck days before Halloween, so did Hurricane Wilma wreck South Florida seven years ago this week. My kids were teens then (remember Harry Potter costumes?) and I have a piece of advice now for the parents of trick-or-treaters from Virginia to Maine: Don't cancel Halloween, as I'm seeing so many towns up there announcing they'll do. Postpone it. Delay it. But as soon as you can, have it. That might sound like fairly trivial counsel given the deadly havoc the Northeast is dealing with at this moment. But that grim situation—and the impact I've personally seen it have on children—is precisely the reason I'm offering it. During times like this, one crucial thing kids need is a reassuring sign or two of normalcy. What's more, if you're going to have a hurricane hit you during a holiday, Halloween is the best when it comes to children; For all its lighthearted revelry of costumes and candy, this delightfully gothic autumn festival also manages to teach kids something about confronting life's darker side. Wilma tore across Florida a week before Halloween in 2005, on Oct. 24, littering the peninsula's southern half with uprooted trees, exploded rooftops and glass shards from high-rise condominium windows. Almost 40 people were killed; more than 3 million of us were without power for weeks, and the damage topped $20 billion. I remember interviewing a group of shell-shocked elementary school kids who'd been having a "hurricane sleepover" in a Miami Beach high-rise when the Category 2 winds destroyed the apartment and almost blew them into Biscayne Bay. Many people considered shutting Halloween down amid that mess. Still, when I looked up long enough from my own aggravating cleanup work, or from my deadline stories about the disaster, I could see the dispiriting effect that the prospect of ditching Halloween was having on my children, then aged 10 and 8. It wasn't just that they were losing out on the fun. Halloween by then had also become a comforting part of their children's almanac. Not having it would have left a hole that only compounded the hurricane trauma they were trying to absorb all around them. I might not have been so tuned in to their funk had I not covered Miami's Elian Gonzdlez debacle five years earlier. The one thing the child psychiatrists I interviewed then kept telling me was that Elidn, like any kid that age, needed structure returned to his life, especially after the horrifying experience of watching his mother drown in the Atlantic Ocean. I remembered that wisdom after Wilma, and it made me and a number of other parents in our community resolve to forge ahead with a proper Halloween. Not just the trick-or-treating but a party afterward with ghost stories, bobbing for apples and limbo dancing. Observing Oct. 31 , damn the mess, helped the kids forget Oct. 24 for a while, and I'd be willing to bet they remember it as one of their best Halloweens. And maybe, in retrospect, one of the more meaningful. Halloween doesn't just help kids forget their cares; it invites them to face their fears. I've never understood parents who boycott Halloween because they believe it introduces children to the occult or even Satan worship. As far as I'm concerned, it does just the opposite. Halloween doesn't embrace death—it mocks it. (I would also remind conservative Christians that while it's a secular holiday today, "Halloween" traditionally means "All Hallows' Eve," the night before All Saints Day on the Roman Catholic calendar.) In that sense it's a lot like Mexico's Day of the Dead, which unfolds every Nov. 2 in all its skeletons-and-marigolds splendor. I call the Day of the Dead the Mexican Halloween because it serves much the same harvest-season purpose; to make us less scared of death by letting us party with it for a moment. That kind of positive ritual comes in handy when children are trying to make sense of tragedy. When I look at the 2005 Halloween photos of our neighborhood kids today, I see more than youngsters laughing at their fantasy frights. I also sense children who might be coping a bit better with the real mayhem they'd just witnessed. So in spite of this week's catastrophe, let the kids put on a Frankenstein costume—because it might help them put away their nightmares of Frankenstorm.

在重复的岁月里，我们渐渐有点摸不着过年的幸福了，不少人觉得过年“没劲”，还有几分无奈和麻木。这个时候，检点我们的幸福感，就显得很有必要。 对不同的人，幸福的体验是大相径庭的。但问题是，低层次的需要得到满足之后，高层次的需要往往并不“从天而降”。说白了，我们还不太习惯培植源自情感、归属、自尊等层次的幸福，对这些需要还比较朦胧和粗糙。所以，比如尽管我们对婚姻越来越挑剔，也有足够的勇气对窒息人的婚姻说不，但对于如何经营一个完美的婚姻，我们往往束手无策。所以，尽管有人说现在的日子如同天天在过年，但我们心里却时常有点空落落的。

There are four major types of benchmarking activities pursued at Xerox; internal, functional, generic, and competitive. Thetheory behind internal benchmarking maintains that while large【S1】______organizations have multiples of the same units setting up to perform【S2】______similar activities, information can easily be shared among similarunits at the company's advantage. At Xerox, the company utilizes【S3】______internal benchmarking as a device to transfer opinions, ideas, and information among its divisions. Functional benchmarking is the story of Xerox's learning relationship with L. L. Bean. In the early 1980s, the members of Xerox's benchmarking review team found that L. L. Bean, whichadopt of the same methods of customer order processing—picking【S4】______orders manually—as themselves, was three times fast. Thus, Bean【S5】______became Xerox's functional benchmark in the area of order processing. Generic benchmarking has become Xerox's focal points. Xerox identified numerous basic business processes, such as order taking,in that they sought improvement. One individual was assigned to【S6】______oversee improvements in each of 10 areas encompassing the 67identified processes, the owners of which became responsible【S7】______documenting specific means of improving processes, overseen【S8】______implementation of organizational benchmarking activities. Finally, competitive benchmarking entails uncovering competitor practices that can then be implemented and improvedupon within an organization. Xerox had four places which it stored【S9】______and handled material, but it changed its materials managementstructure to be more in line with those of its competitors.【S10】______ As a result, Xerox has been able to reclaim the market leadership position.

第二天，苏林教授乘早上第一班电车出发。根据报名单上的地址，好容易找到了在杨树浦的那条僻静的马路，进了弄堂，蓦地不由吃了一惊。 那些弄堂里有些墙垣都已倾塌，烧焦的栋梁呈现出一片可怕的黑色，断瓦残垣中间时或露出枯黄的破布碎片，所有这些说明了这条弄堂不仅受到台风破坏，而且显然发生过火灾。就在这灾区的瓦砾场上，有些人大清早就在忙碌着张罗。 苏林教授手持纸条，不知从何处找起，忽然听见对屋的楼窗上，有一个孩子有事没事地张口叫着： “咪——咿——咿——咿——，吗——啊——啊一一啊——”仿佛歌唱家在练声的样子。苏林教授不禁为之微笑，他猜对了，那孩子敢情就是陈伊玲的弟弟，正在若有其事地学着他姊姊练声的姿势呢。

任何语言，包括诗的语言在内，都应该力求用最经济的方式，表达最丰富的内容。到了有话非说不可的时候，说出的话才能动人。否则内容空虚，即便用了最伟大的字眼和词汇，也将无济于事，甚至越说得多，反而越糟糕。因此，我想奉劝爱说伟大的空话的朋友，还是多读，多想，少说一些，遇到要说话的时候，就去休息，不要浪费你自己和别人的时间和精神吧!

At the turn of the 20th century, Dutch physician Christiaan Eijkman showed that disease can be caused not only bymicroorganisms but by a dietary efficiency of certain substances【M1】______now called vitamins. In 1909 German bacteriologist Paul Ehrlich introduced the world's first bactericide, a chemical designed to killspecific kinds of bacteria with killing the patient's cells as well.【M2】______Following the discovery of penicillin in 1928 by British bacteriologist Sir Alexander Fleming, antibiotics joined medicine's chemical armory, making the fight against bacterial infectionalmost a routine matter. Antibiotics cannot act as viruses, but【M3】______vaccines have been used to greatly effect to prevent some of the【M4】______deadliest viral diseases. Smallpox, once a worldwide killer, wascompletely eradicated by the late 1970s, and in the United States a【M5】______number of polio cases dropped from 38,000 in the 1950s to less than 10 a year by the 21st century. By the middle of the 20th century scientists believed they were well on the way to treating, preventing, or eradicating manyof the most deadly infectious diseases that plagued humankind for【M6】______centuries. And by the 1980s the medical community's confidence【M7】______in its ability to control the infectious diseases had been shaken by【M8】______the emergency of new types of disease-causing microorganisms.【M9】______New cases of tuberculosis developed, caused by bacteria strainsthat were resistant to antibiotics. New, deadly infections on which【M10】______there was no known cure also appeared, including the viruses that cause hemorrhagic fever and the human immunodeficiency virus(HTV), the cause of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

"Leftover Women" are increasingly visible in today's China. They are the ladies who are nearly or above SO years old and still remain single. To their parents' surprise, many of the "leftover women" are not particularly eager to get married, which is in great contrast to the traditional Chinese belief. The following article provides detailed information about this issue. Read it carefully and write your response in NO LESS THAN 300 words, in which you should: 1. summarize briefly the article; 2. give your comment on this phenomenon, especially on what major reasons are leading to this phenomenon. China's "Leftover Women", Unmarried at 27 Huang Yuanyuan is stressing out about the fact that the next day, she'll turn 29. "I'm nervous because I'm still single. I have no boyfriend. I'm under big pressure to get married," she says.Huang is a confident, personable young woman with a good salary, her own apartment, an MA from one of China's top universities, and a wealth of friends. Still, she knows that these days, single, urban, educated women like her in China are called "sheng nu" or "leftover women"—and it stings. She feels pressure from her friends and her family, and the message gets hammered in by China's state-run media too. "Elver since 2007, the state media have aggressively disseminated this term in surveys, and news reports, and pictures, basically for educated women over the age of 27 or 30 who are still single," says Leta Hong-Fincher, an American doing a sociology PhD at Tsinghua University in Beijing. Even the website of the government's supposedly feminist All-China Women's Federation featured articles about "leftover women"—until enough women complained. "It's caught on like a fad, but it belittles older, unmarried women—so the media should stop using this term, and should instead respect women's human rights," says Fan Aiguo, secretary general of the China Association of Marriage and Family Studies. National Bureau of Statistics data shows there are now about 20 million more men under 30 than women under 30. Census figures for China show that around one in five women aged 25-29 is unmarried. The proportion of unmarried men that age is higher—over a third. But that doesn't mean they will easily match up, since Chinese men tend to "marry down", both in terms of age and educational attainment. Some local governments in China have taken to organising matchmaking events, where educated young women can meet eligible bachelors. The goal is to get as many men paired off and tied down in marriage as possible—to reduce, as far as possible, the army of restless, single men who could cause social havoc, believes Fincher.But the tendency to look down on women of a certain age who aren't married isn't exclusively an attitude promoted by the government. Chen, who works for an investment consulting company, knows this all too well. She says her parents are ashamed that they have an unmarried 38-year-old daughter. "They're afraid their friends and neighbours will regard me as abnormal. And my parents would also feel they were totally losing face, when their friends all have grandkids already." A 29-year-old marketing executive, who uses the English name Elissa, says being single at her age isn't half bad. "Living alone, I can do whatever I like," she says. "I love my job, and I can do a lot of stuff all by myself— like reading, like going to theatres." Sure, she says, her parents would like her to find someone, and she has gone on a few blind dates, for their sake. But, she says, they've been a "disaster". Elissa says she'd love to meet the right man, but it will happen when it happens.

(1)Humans are damaging the planet at an unprecedented rate and raising risks of abrupt collapses in nature mat could spur disease, deforestation or "dead zones" in me seas, an international report said on Wednesday. (2)The study, by 1,360 experts in 95 nations, said a rising human population had polluted or over-exploited two-thirds of the ecological systems on which life depends, ranging from clean air to fresh water, in me past 50 years. "At the heart of this assessment is a stark warning," said the 45-member board of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment. "Human activity is putting such strain on the natural functions of Earth that the ability of me planet's ecosystems to sustain future generations can no longer be taken for granted," it said. (3)Ten to 30 percent of mammal, bird and amphibian species were already threatened with extinction, according to the assessment, the biggest review of the planet's life support systems. "Over the past 50 years, humans have changed ecosystems more rapidly and extensively than in any comparable time in human history, largely to meet rapidly growing demands for food, fresh water, timber, fibre and fuel," the report said. "This has resulted in a substantial and largely irreversible loss in the diversity of life on earth," it added. More land was changed to cropland since 1945, for instance, man in the 18m and 19th centuries combined. (4)"The harmful consequences of this degradation could grow significantly worse in me next 50 years," it said. The report was compiled by experts, including from UN agencies and international scientific and development organizations. (5)UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said me study "shows how human activities are causing environmental damage on a massive scale throughout the world, and how biodiversity—the very basis for life on earth—is declining at an alarming rate." The report said there was evidence mat strains on nature could trigger abrupt changes like the collapse of cod fisheries off Newfoundland in Canada in 1992 after years of over-fishing. (6)Future changes could bring sudden outbreaks of disease. Warming of the Great Lakes in Africa due to(3)But that's only if you don't overdo it, and that's the part that often trips up peanut lovers. There are 14 grams of fat in one serving of peanuts, which is only one ounce. A handful can have up to 200 calories. "The problem is that the portions need to be low so you don't overconsume the calories—that's where the public has a disconnect," said Madelyn Fernstrom, director of the Weight Management Center at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. "It's a well-spent 200 calories if you can limit it to that. The problem is volume. It's very hard to have a small serving of peanuts, meaning a small handful." (4)When peanuts were out of favor in the last decade, American consumers seemed to overlook the respectable list of nutrients—vitamin E, niacin, thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin B6, and minerals such as copper, phosphorous, potassium, zinc and magnesium. They also are a good source of fiber and protein. Peanuts also have a small amount of resveratrol, the antioxidant in red wine that has been linked to the "French Paradox" —a low incidence of heart disease among the French, despite their love of cheese and other high-fat foods. Research at several universities suggests peanuts may help prevent heart disease, that they can lower bad cholesterol and that they can help with weight loss, possibly by making people feel satisfied so they eat less overall. One Harvard study showed an association between peanut butter consumption and a reduced risk of diabetes. Even the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorized a qualified health claim for peanuts and some tree nuts. Producers can say they may reduce their risk of heart disease by eating 1.5 ounces daily. (5)Anna Resurreccion, a University of Georgia food scientist, has focused her research on the resveratrol found in peanuts. By subjecting the nuts to stress—slicing the kernels, or subjecting them to ultrasound—the resveratrol level greatly surpassed that found in red wine, she said. This development opens the door for new products, such as enhanced peanut butter that could offer even more health benefits and serve as a way to get resveratrol into children's diets, she said. "Young children can't very well drink wine," Resurrecction said. "But most of them love peanut butter and peanut snack foods."

(1)Mucky roads, unpredictable weather, and wet ground that sags beneath your feet. It must be springtime in New England. (2)Come March, receding snow transforms the landscape into a soft, sloppy mess. New Englanders call this metamorphosis "mud season", the period of recovery between the long, brutal winter and the warm summer ahead But with no banner activity to accompany it—think leaf-peeping in the fall or skiing in winter—mud season brings a serious lull in tourism A group of inns and hotels say that's the perfect excuse to design a vacation package. The result? Getaways that focus on food, drink, and activities inspired by mud seasoa Add greater room availability and discount prices, and all that muck seems a little more bearable. (3)For guests who are hungry after a winter in hibernation, the Inn at Crystal Lake, a 12-room bed-and-breakfast in the tiny town of Eaton, offers "Swine in the Mud", smoky, thick pork chops topped with honey-chipotle barbecue sauce. To round out the meal, co-owner and bartender Tim Ostendorf whips up a "Here's Mud in Your Eye", vodka shaken with Kahlua liqueur and Hershey's syrup. (4)Crystal Lake isn't the only establishment with a mud-themed menu. The Inn by the Sea in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, serves warm raspberry scones drizzled with "Maine Mud" chocolate sauce for breakfast. Devising such recipes can be taxing, says owner Maureen McQuade. "You think that putting together a promotion like this is a snap," she says. "You have to drink a lot of chocolate martinis." (5)But someone has to do it Visits to the region between ski season and summertime drop sharply, as statistics from the New Hampshire tourism office bear out In the White Mountains, where Eaton is located, tourists spent around $176 million in the winter of 2002. That spring they spent just $77 millioa In the Lakes Region, popular for boating and fishing, visitors spent almost $276 million in summer 2001. That spring, spending was around $65 millioa "We don't have the crowds like we have in fall or summer," says Ostendorf. "It's a quieter time." (6)Some inns use the relative calm as a selling point. For vacationers in need of post-winter rejuvenation, the Wayside Inn in Bethlehem, N.H., includes a mud wrap—with a choice of three kinds of mud—in its mud season package. "You tend to want a quiet weekend, not to do much, get away from the hustle," says Wayside co-owner Kathe Hofmann. (7)Lower prices are another incentive. For participating inns, costs for a two-night stay with some meals and activities included range from $295 to $899, down as much as $200 compared with peak season. (8)For those who like a little testosterone mixed in with their dirt, the Equinox Resort Spa in Manchester Village, Vt., offers an off-road driving course in one of its eight Land Rovers or Hummer H2s. But don't expect any television-style heroics in the lesson: Speeds on the 80-acre course are 3 to 5 miles per hour, says Courtney Lowe, the resort's director of sales and marketing. "The whole objective is a tread-lightly program," Lowe says. If the weather's right, the terrain will ensure at least some mud gets on the windshield. The course features steep hills and dramatic pitches that cause the SUVs to lean sharply to one side. "You almost have the feeling you'll fall over, but you won't," Lowe says. (9)Is the market for something a little less dizzying? Crystal Lake's package includes wildlife and bird-watching trips to four nearby Audubon Society sanctuaries. Adventurous guests get guides to spot birds and animal tracks, maps of the areas, and locally made soap to clean up after a day of traipsing through the muck. "It's a terrific time," says Bobby Barker, the inn's co-owner. "It can suddenly change from one severe season to sun."

Cultures are different because the locations they exist in are different. Some people living in the desert, are going to livedifferently from people live in a jungle. So when they have to decide【S1】______why the sky is blue, if you're living in the jungle and there are loads of blue flowers, you might say it's because there are loads ofthese blue flowers up here. If you live in the desert you might have【S2】______ever seen a blue flower so you say it's because there's water up【S3】______there. So people come out with this different stuff, and then they【S4】______elaborate on it, and change it around. Then their kids move todifferent places and it gets all mix up, and the stories change, and【S5】______people invent science and that changes everything too—although the【S6】______beginnings are still there.
