During the Japanese aggression, 19 Malan locals were killed for refusing to divulge information about the

She joined the school band after entering Tsinghua University, and also taught her colleagues to play the violin after graduation.In 2003, when Deng Xiaolan return

She wanted to sing a song together with the children in commemoration (纪念仪式), but none of the children knew the well-known songs she named.“If the children couldnt si

Life would be so pale if it doesnt have music,” Deng said. “My parents lived and fought here when they were young, and they wanted the locals to live a happy life. So I thought if I had the chance, I must teach them to sing.”Deng began to travel be

In a study published recently in the journal Nature Astronomy, scientists say they were able to create this kind of “diamond rain” in a lab, reported The Guardian.Scientists used high-powered lasers to create pairs of shockwaves through a kind
21、 of plastic. The plastic is made from hydrogen and carbon, much like methane. The shock waves created high pressure and heat, like that inside Uranus and Neptune.“The experimental time is very short,” Dominik Kraus, lead author of the study, told The Guardian. “That we saw this very clear signature
22、of diamonds was actually very, very surprising”.The diamonds created in the lab were tiny, only a few nanometers (纳米) wide. Scientists believe that diamonds would be much larger within Neptune and Uranus. Then they might slowly sink toward the planets center because of gravity.8What factor is needed

25、are diamonds inside Neptune and UranusDWith no special equipment, no fences and no watering, two abandoned agricultural fields in the UK have been rewilded (重新野化), in large part due to the efforts of jays, which actually “engineered” these new woodlands. Researchers now hope that rewilding projects
26、can take a more natural and hands-off approach and that jays can shed some of their bad reputations.The two fields, which researchers have called the New Wilderness and the Old Wilderness, had been abandoned in 1996 and 1961 respectively. The former was a bare field, while the latter was grasslandbo

Researchers had suspected that the fields would gradually return to wilderness, but it was impressive to see just how quickly this happened, and how much of it was owed to birds.Using aerial data, the researchers monitored the two sites. After just 24 years, the New
28、 Wilderness had grown into a young, healthy wood with 132 live trees per hectare, over half of which (57%) were oaks. Meanwhile, the Old Wilderness resembled a mature woodland after 39 years, with 390 trees per hectare.“This native woodland restoration was approaching the structure (but not the spec
29、ies composition) of long-established woodlands within six decades,” the researchers explained in the study.Part of this reforestation was done by the wind, and researchers suspect that previous ground disturbance may have aided the woodland establishmentwhich is good news, as it would suggest that a
30、gricultural areas may be reforested faster than anticipated. However, animalsEurasian jays, thrushes, wood mice, and squirrelsalso played an important role in helping the forests take shape. This handful of species provided much of the natural regeneration needed for the forest to develop. Jays, in
