16、also believe in the philosophy that we are not defined (定义) by what happens to us, but by what we do when things happen to us.Some friends think we have had far more than our share of bad things occur, but I dont think bad things are shared. They are events that occur as the result of many aspects,
17、sometimes far past our control or even knowledge of them. I am also a firm believer in the laws of unintended consequences one event causes things that are quite unexpected, sometimes positive, sometimes not.So as I considered the question of “What motivates me?” and sought an answer, it struck me t

23、ors purpose in writing the text?ATo complain. BTo advertise.CTo encourage. DTo explain.CWe live in a technological society where most goods are mass-produced by unskilled labor. Because of this, most people think that craft(工艺,手艺) no longer exists. One of the ways these people wrongly support their
24、view is by pointing to 100-year-old homes which are still solid, and arguing that it is the craftsmanship that is responsible for their durability (牢圈). Homes in those days were well-built,” they say. No doubt these homes were well-built, but what these people have done is to mix up the quality of m
25、aterial used in the house with the quality of the craftsmanship. Homes today could be built to last just as long as those old homes if people were willing or able to pay the price. For example, most people can no longer afford solid oak (橡树) stairways, although they were once fairly common in older
26、homes. Nor can they afford the high labor cost of employing a carpenter to build the stairway. Yet if someone can pay the high cost, there are still plenty of carpenters around able to make those stairways. And not only would these carpenters know how to build them, they would probably do a better j

33、reater the drop in animal populations, said Josh Daskin, an ecologist at Yale University. He was the lead author of the study, which was published Wednesday in the journal Nature.It takes very little conflict, as much as one conflict in about 20 years, for the average wildlife population to be decli

Yet, many also die because of changes in social and economic conditions in an area
35、 as a result of war, said Rob Pringle. He is an ecologist at Princeton University and the studys co-author. “People in and around war zones are poor and hungrier. So they may begin to illegally hunt animals for valuable tusks or hunt protected animals to eat,” Pringle said. “And during wartime, anim

The researchers looked at 10 different factors that could change population numbers. They included war, drought, animal size, protected areas and human
