In the midst of this scene the musicians had kept on playing until the tent was on fire over-head because they knew mu
13、sic sometimes might work wonder; they had jumped off the bandstand just before a flaming quarter-pole fell into their stand. City fire equipment had arrived by now and was pouring streams of water onto the big top area to cool it enough for firemen to enter. In the smoke and confusion, it was imposs
14、ible to tell whether or not anyone might have been left in the tent. We circus people were ordered away from the smoking ruins that, only a few minutes before, had been the biggest spread of canvas in the world.I went outside; doctors, and first-aid workers were everywhere, carrying bodies from wher

19、cials to bring autonomous all-electric vehicles into the skies in just a few years. Lilium, a German start-up company, has raised more than US $100 million from investors. Its prototype(雏形)jetwhich is still seeking certification from European regulators(欧洲监管机构)is able to take off and land like a hel
20、icopter, and is quiet enough to land in some areas that are traditionally off-limits to aircrafteven midtown Manhattan.However, the possibility of air vehicles over New York already represents a clear and present danger to public safety. New York skies are already filled with helicopters. Since 1983
21、, there have been at least 30 helicopter crashes in the city. There are several challenges to overcome before commuters(上下班往返的人)are flying through the air, said Dalvin Brown in USA Today. Many of the vehicles now being imagined require magical electric batteries that doesnt existyet. The best that a
22、nyone can do right now with an electric battery is 20 minutes of flight.

27、covid-19. The lockdown has worsened a problem that has been spreading in many developed nations for decades: loneliness.It is a complex issue which covers not only social lives, but the way you work and the way you vote. Noreena Hertz, an academic, deals with the subject in an important new book, “T
28、he Lonely Century”.Loneliness increases the risk of heart disease, strokes and dementia(痴呆症). Those who say they are lonely are likelier to be depressed five years later. In addition, lonely people can become more hostile towards others and more attracted to extremist politics.Part of the problem st
29、ems from contemporary employment. Globally, two in five office workers feel lonely at work. This rises to three in five in Britain.

30、riendships, particularly for new employees.Ms. Hertz points her finger at other recent developments. One of them is social media. The Internet has led to much cyber-bullying (although it has also been a source of companionship during the lockdown). And people glued to their smartphones spend less ti
31、me interacting socially. Some changes in behavior are caused by individual choice. Before the pandemic no one was stopping people going to church or taking part in sports.

32、 1960s. That is surely a welcome development.So recreating a communal society may be difficult.
