36、 are dissatisfied. ”Do what you believe is right. In a free country, there will always be conflicting ideas, and this is a source of strength.

42、 buildings in a city often overburden public transportation.Skyscrapers are also lavish consumers of electric power and water. In just one recent year, the addition of 17 million square feet of skyscraper office space in New York City itself has already raised the top daily demand for electricity by
43、 120, 000 kw enough to supply the entire city of Albany in New York area for a single day.Glasswalled skyscrapers can also be especially wasteful. The heat loss ,or gain, through a wall of half 一 inch plate glass is more than ten times that through a typical ordinary wall filled with bricks or board
44、.

But did you know that a yawn can also help your brain to cool down when it is overheated?A new study, led by a research team a
50、t Princeton University, has indicated that yawning could be the brains natural way of regulating temperature. People yawn more often when the temperature outdoors is lower than their body temperature but are less likely to yawn when it is hotter outdoors, according to Sciencedaily. com.The research
51、team did an experiment on 160 people, 80 in summer and 80 in winter, to examine how often they yawned at different air temperatures.

52、between the overheated brain and the cool air. But when the air temperature is higher than or equal to the body, people are less likely to yawn because the hot air they breathe in will make the brain even hotter.When people yawn, their jaw is also stretched ,which increases blood flow and may also h
