问答题The idea behind One Foundation is simple, think big by thinking small. Starting in China, Li has set out to raise one yuan (15 cents) from every person each month. He likens it to one big family helping each other out. "All too often you see people expecting others to dip into their pockets," he says. "They blame their government. They say corporations with their big profits should be more generous. But I believe helping each other starts with the individuals. It is everybody"s responsibility to give. If everyone gives one yuan every month, it will add up to billions of dollars." To make that idea a reality, One Foundation has teamed up with the corporate sector. For example, Chinese entrepreneur Jack Ma, co-founder of the world"s leading B2B ecommerce company alibaba, corn, has agreed to let the foundation use AliPay, its online payment system, at no cost. In practical terms, this means that very small donations don"t get swallowed up by processing fees. Li and his team are still trying to convince online payment operators outside China to do the same, so the one yuan concept can be expanded around the world.

问答题The hardest hit of all that week were Wall Street's specialist firms, the traders who were charged with maintaining orderly markets. That task required them to purchase stocks when there were no other buyers and to make sales when other sellers disappeared. Until the end of that week, a total 52 specialist firms had worked on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange: each had handled the shares of 20 to 30 specified Big Board companies. On Black Monday, the specialists grimly fulfilled their responsibilities, buying millions of shares as prices plunged all around them. Their losses could amount to as much as $750 million. Securities firms outside Wall Street also felt mortal pain. The 4 500 accounts of the New York Stock Exchange member were taken over by Rodman & Renshaw, a Chicago firm.

问答题In the 1990s, people are very aware of how bad things are. As a result, they completely ignore information about new developments and crises to prevent themselves from going "crazy". Today's leaders should therefore provide people with a sense that current problems are soluble (可以解决的). We need to break large-scale crises down to small manageable pieces rather than cause people to believe that the situation is even more complex and difficult that they thought. People need to believe that they can really do something within their own situation, and to do this, they must recognize that it is in their self-interest to change their behavior.

问答题The world's richest countries, which have contributed by far the most to the atmospheric changes linked to global warming, are already spending billions of dollars to limit their own risks from its worst consequences, like drought and rising seas. But despite longstanding treaty commitments to help poor countries deal with warming, these industrial powers are spending just tens of millions of dollars on ways to limit climate and coastal hazards in the world's most vulnerable regions—most of them close to the equator and overwhelmingly poor. Over the last few decades, as scientists have intensified their study of the human effects on climate and of the effects of climate change on humans, a common theme has emerged: in both respects, the world is a very unequal place. In almost every instance, the people most at risk from climate change live in countries that have contributed the least to the atmospheric buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases linked to the recent warming of the planet. Those most vulnerable countries also tend to be the poorest. And the countries that face the least harm—and that are best equipped to deal with the harm they do face—tend to be the richest.

问答题Cohen and his colleagues had found in a previous study that happier people seemed less susceptible to catching a cold, but some questions remained as to whether the emotional trait itself had the effect. For the new study, the researchers had 193 healthy adults complete standard measures of personality traits, self-perceived health and emotional "style." Those who tended to be happy, energetic and easy-going were judged as having a positive emotional style, while those who were often unhappy, tense and hostile had a negative style. The researchers gave them nasal drops containing either a cold virus or a particular flu virus. Over the next six days, the volunteers reported on any aches, pains, sneezing or congestion they had, while the researchers collected objective data, like daily mucus production. Cohen and his colleagues found that based on objective measures of nasal woes, happy people were less likely to develop a cold.

问答题The free market economy is no doubt the primary stimulus that has led to the United States' dominance in the world economic community. By naturally rewarding those producers that excel, excellence is actively encouraged and those that inefficiently produce goods or services are eliminated; thus, the economy becomes a self-sustaining and self-maintaining machine, consistently and constantly achieving the best possible result. The free market economy is entirely based on the principle of supply and demand. Under this concept, consumers decide for themselves which companies will stay in business, voting with their dollars by spending on those businesses they consider most worthy. By doing so, those companies that are best liked, or most in demand, are granted the privilege of supplying the goods and services that consumers pay for. In that sense, efficiency is achieved. For those companies that best perform to the expectations of consumers are left prosperous in the market, while their less efficient counterparts simply die out of the market, starved of the dollars of consumers who simply prefer not to buy their products.

问答题Now to the last in our week of special reports from Haiti. The earthquake there two months ago created one of the worst disasters in recent history. We"ve heard from kids who lost their family, were badly injured and had their homes and schools destroyed. Even though these children have suffered so much, they still have big hopes for the future. "I want to be a nurse, to help the people who are sick." "Maybe an engineer." "I"d like to be a doctor and a dentist. I"d like to study in the United States." But there are no quick solutions to the problems Haiti has. The country was already poor before the earthquake, now the little that many people did has been destroyed. It will take years to clear the rubble and longer still to rebuild the country. Tanya is working with the charity Save the Children in Haiti. She hopes that all the attention the country has been getting since the quake, will help it become stronger. "This is really a terrible moment for Haiti but it"s also an opportunity in a way, because there"s so much attention and desire to help. It"s a chance for the world to help Haiti build a better education system."

问答题1. When people in developing countries worry about migration, they are usually concerned at the prospect of their best and brightest departure to Silicon Valley or to hospitals and universities in the developed world. 2. These are the kind of workers that countries like Britain, Canada and Australia try to attract by using immigration rules that privilege college graduates. Lots of studies have found that well-educated people from developing countries are particularly likely to emigrate. A big survey of Indian households in 2004 found that nearly 40% of emigrants had more than a high-school education, compared with around 3.3% of all Indians over the age of 25. This "brain drain" has long bothered policymakers in poor countries. 3. They fear that it hurts their economies, depriving them of much-needed skilled workers who could have taught at their universities, worked in their hospitals and come up with clever new products for their factories to make.
