When the house is very noisy, Megan, one of the children, is quietly inventing. A year ago, the 10yearolds had to design an antismoking poster
26、for a school project. Rather than a poster, she came up with the idea of creating something that shows the average amount of tar(尼古丁) a smoker collects from just four packs of cigarettes.“I like people to play with things more than read and write, ” she says.

27、et, found a company in China that could make it, saved up her pocket money and got her idea made.Paula says her daughter “thinks differently”: Ideas jump into her mind. After she got sunburnt on holiday, Megan invented a small plastic bracelet that changes color in the sun, telling you when to put o
28、n sunscreen. Several sunscreen companies have expressed an interest in the idea. She also came up with an idea to make a ball filled with water to stop the dog from feeling thirsty. “But we didnt do anything with it,” says Paula.Then she pulls out a picture of a special fishing rod she has designed.
29、 “ There is a camera on the hook, ” she explains, “and the screen is on the handle,and it shows you if youve caught a fish or not. ”Megan doesnt want to go to university.

34、r that was printed in the Palo Alto Times. Pollys son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as the educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents k
35、new his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper. “Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was
36、 killed in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known that the last time I had talked to him would be the last time. If I had only known that, I would have said to him, Jim, I love you and Im always so proud of you. I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had br
37、ought to the lives of the people who loved him. I would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his laughter, and his genuine love to other people. “When I put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irritating (恼人的) things such as the radio that was alwa
38、ys too loud, the haircut that wasnt to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., I find that the irritations really dont amount to much. “I wont get another chance to tell my son all that I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. Tell your young people what you wo
39、uld want them to hear as if it may be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the morning of the day when he died. He called me to say, Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. You have to go to work now. Bye. That day, he gave me something to treasure forever. ”If there is any pu
40、rpose at all for Jims death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family members, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care.

44、 engineered fruit trees that produce real meat!Fruit from the new Meat Trees, developed by British scientists using the gene technology, is closely like ordinary grape-fruit. But when you cut the fruit open, inside is fresh beef! “Our trees may sound like something out of a science fiction movie, bu
45、t its really true,” declares Dr. Vincent, director of the UMA Group, which created the amazing trees. “Vegetarians have been complaining for years that in spite of their firm belief against eating meat, they still desire the taste of meat once in a while. Now they can have their cake and eat it too.
46、” Although its taken 12 years to develop the trees, the idea is simple. “We take the genes from cattle and put them into the cells of grape-fruit trees,” Dr. Vincent says. “When the seeds grow into trees, they produce meat instead of ordinary fruit. You get the taste even the smell.” Those whove tri
47、ed the meat agree it tastes like the real thing. “I was a bit unwilling to believe at first when I sank my teeth into a hamburger after they told me it grew on a tree,” says Londoner Mark, who took part in a taste-test. “But it was juicy and delicious nothing leafy about it at all.”Meat Tree product
48、s could be on the market in Great Britain by the end of next year. Some vegetarians insist they should never eat meat even if it grew on a tree.

What if caring for a dog or for a mom with Alzheimers (老年痴呆症) makes you stronger and allows you to live longer?Researchers at the University of California, B
53、erkeley are challenging our long-held belief that humans are born to be selfish.Darwins theory of evolution by natural selection was misunderstood by his male followers, the researchers say. Rather than “every man for himself”, Darwin believed that humans are successful as a species precisely becaus
54、e of our educational, selfless and sympathetic characteristics. Why has it taken so long for Darwins central revelation(揭示) to be properly understood? “Weve had too many men in social science,” Berkeley psychology professor Dacher Keltner told me in an interview. “Female scientists acknowledge that
55、caring for people is part of human nature according to the research, which shows the human ability to care exists in our brains and nerve systems.”In my book Passages in Caregiving , I urge women who take the whole responsibility for taking care of an elderly parent or a sick relative to build a “Ci
56、rcle of Care”. Reach out to your brothers and sisters, friends, neighbors and community volunteers to help you care, because no one can perform this overwhelming role alone. You will be as shocked as I to learn how the most selfless caregivers are rewarded with longer life.Sympathy is not a womans w
57、ord. In fact it makes all of us stronger under stress and more highly respected by our peers. For so long we have repeated the false saying “Nice guys finish last”.

61、ss could be the secret to longer lifeE Celebrity (名人) has become one of the most important representatives of popular culture. Fans used to be crazy about a specific film, but now the public tends to base its consumption (消费) on the interest of celebrity attached to any given product. Besides, fashi
62、on magazines have almost abandoned the practice of putting models on the cover because they dont sell nearly as well as famous faces. As a result, celebrities have realized their unbelievably powerful market potential, moving from advertising for others products to developing their own.Celebrity clo
63、thing lines arent a completely new phenomenon, but in the past they were typically aimed at the ordinary consumers, and limited to a few TV actresses. Today theyre started by first-class stars whose products enjoy equal fame with some world top brands. The most successful start-ups have been those b
64、y celebrities with specific personal style. As celebrities become more and more experienced at the market, they expand their production scale rapidly, coveringto tried-and-true labels. Today, celebrities face even more severe embarrassment. The pop-cultural circle might be bigger than ever, but its
65、rate of turnover has speeded up as well. Each misstep threatens to reduce a celebritys shelf life, and the same newspaper or magazine that once brought him fame has no problem picking him to pieces when the opportunity appears. Still, the egos(自我的)potential for expansion is limitless. Having already
