Learning for a Distracted Generation
Today's students hav ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e a problem, and it is not the one written on the board. They were born into a world where algorithms (算法) keep them clicking, scrolling and swiping at a rapid pace. Technology, smartphones, social media, and immediate access to the internet are hurting their ability to focus and changing the way they think.【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
Now teachers have a p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )roblem too. They find it particularly exhausting to ask students to read complex or long texts without taking regular 11.. Smartphones have clearly affected the younger generation, but how education should evolve for digital-native students was not something that was covered when they were getting 12. . 【版权所有:21教育】
A common 13. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )among teachers is that short is good. When students can't seem to pay attention to long lectures, many teachers simply hack lessons into smaller chunks (模块). In fact, students need time to 14. with a topic once the teacher introduces it before moving on. Switching between small lessons too quickly could rob them of valuable comprehension.
A 2018 study from ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )educational publisher Pearson found that students aged between 10 and 24 tend to stay away from physical books. They prefer video as a source of information 15. only to teachers. Therefore, some tech-forward teachers choose to “meet kids where they are" on platforms such as YouTube and Instagram. Asha Choksi, vice president of global research at Pearson, gives the example of a teacher who 16. himself performing a science experiment and posts it to YouTube. When it is time for class, he uses the video to 17. materials in the textbook, which can seem boring to students.
Still, while ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) those educators are 18. technology in the classroom to meet students’ needs, they are also finding value in traditional methods, and so suggest a blended (混合的) learning approach. Diregt instruction from them will never be replaced in their classes. Technology will be 19. only when it improves a lesson in ways that are impossible offline.
Digital native ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s will continue to eagerly adopt new media. Teachers have no choice but to adapt. They are making an effort not only to ensure that students take advantage of new technologies, but to teach students valuable skills that can help them succeed in a world 20. trying to distract them. Think of the Zuckerbergs, the Gates, the Jobs and all those pioneers in the tech world. They became successful not because they could code; it was because they could think.

Secrets are bad for your health
I grew up in a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Midwestern town where the popular wisdom was to only talk about what was pleasant and to keep secrets,if necessary,to make that happen.This meant staying silent when someone offended you,rarely 21. negative feelings and smiling a little more than is necessary. It also meant 22. room for airing any sort of dirty laundry,especially not the kinds of personal secrets that keep people up at night.

"If the situations ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) in your daily life are regular 28. of the secret,and you find it stressful to keep it,then yes,it can have emotional and physical consequences.” says Dr.Dean McKay. “Some people also find keeping secrets stressful out of a general 29. that they will 'slip’.

The French Icon Who Revolutionized Women’s Clothes
In fashion folk ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lore, Gabrielle Coco Chanel is famously credited as the designer who popularized trousers, making them a key piece in women’s wardrobes, and also for helping to liberate women from the tyranny of the corset (紧身衣). Instead of caging them in stuffy designs, her clothes 31. freedom of movement, mobility and comfort. She broke down dressing codes by borrowing elements of men’s fashion, such as pockets and tweed (粗花呢). Like any good pioneer, Chanel’s 32. of societal and gender stereotypes early in her career confused some, and inspired others.
Indeed, a look back at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Chanel’s earlier career places her within the Roaring 20s, a time of indulgence driven by 33. economy and post-war recovery. Chanel was responding to the mood of the decade, designing clothes for women who exerted their new-found 34. by chopping off their hair and dancing to American jazz music all night. It’s easy to see why some view her as a feminist icon. Words like “feminine” and “femininity” appear often to describe her creations, though she never talked in these terms. What is really obvious, nevertheless, is that she placed women at the center of her creations and 35. her life to imagining a new way for women to experience fashion.
While the life of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the legendary designer—for her 36. childhood as an abandoned orphan to the 37. that she was a spy for German intelligence—has been scrutinized (仔细审视) in film and books since her death in 1971, the body of her work and her contribution to women’s fashion is far less understood.
“There are more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )than a hundred biographies about her, which talk mostly about her private life,” says Miren Arzalluz, co-curator of Gabrielle Chanel: Fashion Manifesto. “We thought we knew her. But what we realized was that we lacked a 38. knowledge of her work. As curators, we rediscovered Chanel.”
Take the ico ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nic tweed suit, for example. The two-piece costume, 39. recognizable as signature Chanel, remains a staple in the modern woman’s luxury wardrobe nearly 70 years after it was first introduced to the world, and is 40. frequently in cheap versions by other brands. But beyond its aesthetic, there are definitive reasons that the suit has become an enduring classic. The secret lies in the details: the jacket was designed to be soft and light and the skirt is designed to rests comfortably on top of the hips and angles slightly backwards to hang below the knee, offering the wearer freedom of movement.21世纪教育网版权所有

Cities around the wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rld are racing to declare themselves "smart". Smart cities make two fundamental promises: lots of data and automated decision-making based on that data. The ultimate smart city will require lots of existing and to-be-invented technologies, from sensors to artificial intelligence. For many, this promises a safer and more efficient city; for others, it raises questions about privacy and algorithmic (算法的)bias.
However, ther ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e is a more 41. concern when it comes to smart cities: They will be very complex to manage, with all sorts of unpredictable vulnerabilities.
As we know a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ll too well from our personal lives, technology ages rapidly, with glitches(小故障)becoming increasingly common only a couple of years into its life. We accept regular disruptions in the internet and cellphone functions as a fact of life.
But would we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) accept the same 42. of disruption in, say, our water and power services City infrastructure is designed to last decades or centuries and must always work.
Managing all the sens ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ors and data will require a municipal administration 43. by tech experts. Since current average salaries for tech workers are 44. higher than for public employees, such an administration is likely to be expensive. Besides, new technology in 2020 will be outdated before 2025. If we widely use smart tech in cities, we need to be 45. to replace it every few years, with the associated disruption and cost. But who will assume those costs
Cities must plan fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r the inevitable moments when the sensors fail to matter how often we maintain them. Failures in engineered systems tend to come at the most 46. times, like when a storm drops high levels of water and, at the same time, knocks out the electricity to a smart water management system.
The most 47. q ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uestion, however, is whether having a smart city will make us better at solving urban problems. Data and algorithms alone don't add very much on their own. No matter how much data a city has, addressing urban challenges will still require stable long-term 48., good management and effective personnel. If smart data identifies a road that needs paving, it still needs people to show up with tools.21教育网

With the rapid growth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of the aging population in China, the installation of elevators in old communities has gradually become an inevitable issue. A lot of neighborhoods are living no longer 51. due to the living ills of their six-story, elevator-less buildings.
Recently, a resid ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ential 52. in Hangzhou has come up with an initiative designed to 53. the problem as to how to raise funds for facilities much-needed by elderly residents, which are called “public transit elevators.” Pay one yuan, and you can take the ride once, just like taking a bus. The price remains unchanged whether you take the lift by yourself or with your whole family. From my perspective, this 54. solution is quite necessary, but still needs improvement.
The greatest conc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ern is the price. Residents in old communities have been at odds with one another regarding how to most effectively distribute the necessary money with which to pay for the installation of elevators. Most residents living on lower floors are 55. reluctant to pay for an elevator to be installed given that it will likely end up occupying their common area of public space. For those living on higher floors, however, the lack of elevator can often be quite 56., especially for the elderly. Therefore, although the installation charge has been cut down to a very low level by adding pay-to-use elevators, how to properly allocate(分配) the 57. costs involved remains to be negotiated. Another problem has 58. concerning who’ll ultimately pay for the ride, suppose two families share one elevator at the same time.
Much easier as i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t is to work things on paper, it requires a considerable investment of financial and material resources in its initial stage, and it will only be able to 59. subtle returns, at least in the short run, making it challenging for whatever authority to carry out the proposal.
Still we have to pla ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ce ourselves in the position in which we can best serve the greater society and by this, treat the issue in a more reasonable 60. so as to minimize any potential losses.

For more than thr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ee centuries, the American colonies and later, the United States have been a place for many "have-nots" to make the "American Dream" come true for themselves and to become "haves." And the optimism that people have, knowing that this61.will always happen, has grown out of some key elements in the history of the nation, a nation that has differed profoundly from every other country in the world. The economic62.of the nation will also be very much tied to these success stories. Three characteristics have contributed to such attainments.21·cn·jy·com
First, the Uni ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ted States had natural resources undreamed of in other parts of the world. For farmers and ranchers there was land, often to be had cheaply or even for free. There were endless forests to supply lumber and rich63.of coal, oil, silver, copper and gold. Besides, critical to the development of these resources was a population of both native-born Americans and immigrant who were connected by their common work ethic. This ethic held that industry and thrift should be
64.with - as Benjamin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Franklin says -- "a State of Affluence and some Degree of Reputation in the World," These Americans believed in self improvement as well as in the nobility of all kinds of work. They also, if somewhat65., often linked material success with spiritual movement. Next, by and large, America was characterized by a(n) 66.class structure. In contrast to England and other European countries with their history of aristocrats(贵族), this country was filled by numerous communities in which family connections or67.money counted for little.
However, the pur ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )suit of American Dream sometimes also proved to be a source of tension and strain. At the beginning of the 20th century, writers like Jack London and F. Scott Fitzgerald depicted a lot of "have-not" characters whose fate is not a matter of free will. They are68.by forces beyond their control. Often, in their works, children or young people are victimized by poverty that prevents them from69.themselves. Convinced that a person's destiny is the result of his or her heredity interacting with the environment, they employ many70. details to explore the oppressive world in which their characters are trapped. Analyzing characters' assumptions and values continued to illuminate the American experience.

The Great Gatsby is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 1925 novel written by American author F.

Progress was slow, with Fitzgerald completing his 77. following a move to the French Riviera in 1924. His editor, Maxwell Perkins, felt the book was vague and persuaded the author to revise over the next winter. Fitzgerald repeatedly hesitated about the book's title and he considered a variety of 78., including titles that referenced the Roman character Trimalchi o; the title he was last documented to have desired was Under the Red, White and Blue.

However, the novel experienced a revival during World War II, and became a part of American high school curricula and numerous stage and film adaptations in the following decades.

On Jan. 22, two ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )days after Chinese officials first publicized the serious threat posed by the new virus ravaging the city of Wuhan, the chief of the World Health Organization held the first of what would be months of almost daily media briefings, 81. the alarm, telling the world to take the outbreak seriously.
But with its offici ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )als 82., the W.H.O., still seeing no evidence of sustained spread of the virus outside of China, declined the next day to declare a global public health emergency. A week later, the organization reversed course and made the declaration.21·世纪*教育网

With limited, consta ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ntly 84. information to go on, the W.H.O. showed an early, consistent determination to treat the new contagion(接触性传染病) like the threat it would become, and to persuade others to do the same. At the same time, the organization repeatedly praised China, acting and speaking with a political 85. born of being an arm of the United Nations, with few resources of its own, unable to do its work without international cooperation.
It was on the d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ay of the lockdown in Wuhan that the W.H.O. at first declined to declare a global emergency, its officials split and expressing concern about 86. a particular country as a threat, and about the impact of such a declaration on people in China. Such caution is a standard — if often 87. — fact of life for United Nations agencies, which operate by consensus(共识) and have usually avoided even a hint of criticizing nations directly.
It is impossible to k ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )now whether the nations of the world would have acted sooner if the W.H.O. had called the epidemic a global emergency a week earlier than it did.
But day after ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )day, Dr. Tedros, in his rambling(冗长含糊的) style, was delivering less formal warnings, telling countries to contain the virus while it was still possible, to do testing and 88. tracing, and isolate those who might be infected.
The organization wa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s criticized for not 89. calling the contagion a pandemic, meaning an epidemic spanning the globe.

Antibodies pl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ay a key role in the immune system. They begin the process of getting rid of the invaders that may cause harm or infection. This lesson 91.how antibodies work and the different kinds of antibodies.
What Are Antibodies
Antibodies, also known ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) as immunoglobulins, are Y-shaped proteins that are produced by the immune system to help stop intruders from harming the body. When an intruder enters the body, the immune system 92.into action. These invaders, which are called antigens (抗原), can be viruses, bacteria, or other chemicals. When an antigen is found in the body, the immune system will create antibodies to mark the antigen for the body to destroy.
Function
The antibodies act ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) sort of like the immune system’s scouts. They find antigens, stick to them, and 93.for the immune system the 94.type of antigen so that it can be destroyed. Each antibody is made for one and only one antigen, and it’s fitted with special receptors that will only 95.to that antigen. For instance, a specific antibody is created to help destroy the chickenpox virus. Only that particular antibody will attack a chickenpox virus.
How Antibodies Fight Antigens
So what happens w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hen an antigen tries to enter the body When it does, the immune system is 96.. Chemical signals are sent to 97.all the different parts of the immune system into action.
First, the viru ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s is met by a type of cell called B cells. The B cells are responsible for creating antibodies to match the antigen. Remember, each type of antibody matches to only one antigen. After the B cells have created their antibodies, the antibodies stick to the virus, marking it for the next round of 98.. T cells are then ordered to attack the antigen that the antibodies have marked for it.
After the antigen has ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) been destroyed, the cleanup crew comes along. A wave of phagocytes large cells that can consume foreign matter, eats the 99.of the infection.
Immunizations
After an infection ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is defeated, the antibodies still remain in the body. They are left there to wait in case that particular antigen returns. Immunizations take advantage of the fact that antibodies remain in the body after an infection is eradicated. Most immunizations consist of a weak or diluted form of an antigen-not enough of the antigen to make the patient sick, but just enough to trigger the creation of antibodies. This way, the body can100.attack any form of the infection it encounters, stopping the infections before they begin.

Cambridge Dictionary’s Word of the Year 2020
Quarantine has bee ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n named Word of the Year 2020 by Cambridge Dictionary, a website where editors use data from the website, blogs, and social media to identify and prioritize new additions. On the New Words Blog, 121. new additions are posted weekly for readers to cast their votes on whether they feel these words should be added. Surprisingly, “Quarantine” has defeated “lockdown” and “pandemic” to be 122. Word of the Year 2020 after data showed it to be one of the most highly searched for on the Cambridge Dictionary.
The Cambridge ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Dictionary editors have also tracked how people were using the word quarantine and discovered a new meaning 123.: a general period of time in which people are not allowed to leave their homes or travel freely, so that they do not catch or spread a disease.
Research show ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s the word is being used 124. to lockdown, particularly in the United States, to refer to a situation in which people stay home to avoid catching the disease.
This new 125 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). of quarantine has now been added to the Cambridge Dictionary, and marks a shift from the existing meanings, which relate to 126. a person or animal suspected of being infectious.
Neither corona viru ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s nor COVID-19 appeared among the words that Cambridge Dictionary users searched for most this year. We believe this indicates that people have been 127. confident about what the virus is. Instead, users have been searching for words related to the social and economic impacts of the pandemic, as 128. not just by quarantine but by the two runners-up on the shortlist for Word of the Year: lockdown and pandemic itself. This interest in quarantine and other related 129. was reflected not only in our search statistics, but also in visits to this blog.

Forget smartphones ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and smart glasses. One day, we might have smart tattoos, body modifications. The company NewDealDesign came up with an idea for a product called UnderSkin. The device would look like a pair of tattoos on your arms and the side of your thumb, but it would actually be a very thin computer implanted just below your skin. It would draw power from your body’s energy, and you could use it to unlock doors, 131. your health, exchange and store information, or even express your personality.

Obstacles can be overcome, say trade experts
The main problem ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) in the EU-UK talks on a trade deal is resolvable so long as neither side treats the matter as a question of high principle, according to trade experts.
German Chancellor A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ngela Merkel warned on Wednesday that a trade deal must 141. a “level playing field, not only for today, but also for tomorrow ”. But British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday evening that Britain would never sign up to automatically having to 142. future EU rules in areas such as environmental regulations and labour standards in order to keep the 143. of a trade deal.
Nonetheless, e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )xperts said there was the 144. for negotiation between Britain’s position, a willingness to swear not to 145. regulatory standards as they stand at the end of its Brexit (British exit) transition period, and the EU’s quest to ensure that these trade deals work well for ever.
The “landing zon ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e” for any deal would likely ensure that the UK was not able to weaken the effectiveness of European regulations and keep the advantages of zero tariffs (关税) in goods: the main feature of the 146. free trade agreement.
David Henig, UK d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )irector of the European Centre For International Political Economy, said what was needed to be agreed were specific 147. that the trade deal covered and the process for dealing with possible 148..
The only reason t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat this should spoil the trade deal talks, said Mr. Henig, was if one or both sides keep their positions on a matter of principle.
Since the start o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f the talks, the EU’s concern has been to avoid having a(n) 149. competitor close to its single market, seizing an advantage through lax (宽松的) environmental regulations and labour standards.
The EU has already ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) moved 150. on state aid.

Spain Looks to Chinese Travelers
Spain's tourism ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )industry is looking to Chinese tourists for its high-end market, according to the president of the Spain-China Tourism Association.
“It is the kind o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f tourism that is not only interested in the sun, beach and the all-included 151. . They enjoy good food, wine, history and nature, and the new Chinese tourists would also want to spend more money in Spain,” said Rafael Cascales in a recent152. with Xinhua.
The Spanish bus ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )iness leader described the 153. Chinese tourists as being younger, more international, and perhaps including more women. “They also travel on their own or in couples or in smaller groups. The 154. large groups of visitors have not disappeared, but this new form of traveling is becoming more important,” he said.
Speaking of the 155. p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )attern of the new kind of Chinese tourists the Tourism Association president said, “The money they spend is 156. better because they will book one flight with one airline, the hotel with another company and the restaurant with another.”
In his eyes, “C ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hinese tourists are very important because they 157. two things: there are a large number of them and they spend more money than anyone else — almost four times more than tourists from other countries.”
They not only tra ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vel abroad in the summer months when Spain has to158. with the sun and beaches in countries such as Turkey and Egypt, but also travel in the off-peak seasons of a year, according to Cascales.
Spain is the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) second most popular tourist destination in the world, only after France. It attracted about 82 million visitors in 2017, 700,000 of them from China, a number which the United Nations World Tourism Organization 159. will rise to about 1 million by 2021.
“We are ready ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ); we have the infrastructure (基础设施)at every level, 160. in hotel capacity. Here those visitors can find what they are looking for, including the luxury items which distinguish them,” Cascales noted.

Disrupted Schooling Spells Worse Results and Deeper Inequality
The first meeting ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) between teachers in Montpelier, Vermont, before the start of the autumn term is usually festive — 161. over breakfast and coffee. This year they had to make do with an online video conference. After a scramble in the spring (to set up online learning, pack lunches for poor pupils who relied on them and 162. computers to those without them), the district plans to let younger pupils return for in-person learning on September 8th. High school will remain partly online because the building is too small to allow enough room in between. The young pupils who can return will need to wear masks, keep their social 163. and have temperature checks before entering school buses or buildings. Setting up these protocols took many 60-hour weeks over the summer holidays, says Libby Bonesteel, the superintendent.
Of the 50 la ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rgest school districts in America, 35 plan to start the coming term entirely 164.. The opportunity to control the virus over the summer has been lost, upending(颠覆) plans for “hybrid” education (part-time in-person instruction). This means more than just child-care 165. for parents. The continued disruption to schooling will probably spell permanent learning loss, 166. hurting poorer pupils.
“Achievement 16 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )7. will become great achievement differences,” warns Robin Lake, director of the Centre on Reinventing Public Education, a research group. Analysts at McKinsey, a consultancy, think that the 168. American pupil would suffer 6.8 months of learning loss if in-person instruction does not 169. until January 2021 (which looks possible). This would fall heaviest on black pupils, who would lose over ten months’ 170. of instruction, and poor ones, who would fall behind by more than a year. Most likely, there could be 648,000 more high-school dropouts.

As colleges and unive ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rsities nationwide revealed their admission decisions, news broke of a dramatic decline in acceptance rates-and not just at Ivy League schools. The shift meant that many high school students who pinned all their hopes on particular dream schools might find themselves 171. with real disappointment.
Why were admissi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ons so low these years It’s a number game. These years, colleges saw the number of applicants soar to record-high levels. But considering 172. budgets, the number of spots colleges could offer had to be 173.. As a result, both state schools and private colleges kept seeing their acceptance rates fall rapidly.
It’s not that most st ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )udents won’t get into colleges at all. Instead, there are more than enough spots nationwide for every qualified applicant to find a place for study. But for many, the school they end up enrolling in may not have been their first, or even third choice. The 174. strike of rejection, in some cases, could be heartbreaking. These are kids who are used to being the best of the best.www-2-1-cnjy-com
But some of the press ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ure is 175., without excuses, by students themselves, according to Laurence Steinberg, professor of Psychology. He thinks that Americans fall 176. to their own addiction to school rankings and fame. Students and their parents have formed strong commitments to particular schools long before admission decisions are made. “When they are rejected, it’s like being rejected by a boyfriend or girlfriend,” Steinberg says. “They 177. it: What’s the matter with me What could I have done differently ”
That emotional 178 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). is often only about what school name students will paste on their parents’ cars but it may also lead to families’ 179. of what may actually be the suitable school for the students.
Actually, pai ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nful as the rejection is, in the long run, getting into a high-ranking university doesn’t necessarily mean competitive 180. in terms of job prospects and earnings. A research shows that many students rejected by highly selective schools earn as much as Ivy League graduates. What really matters is how seriously students take their studies.

Space junk has been ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a growing problem for years as human-made objects such as old satellites and spacecraft parts build up in low Earth orbit until they 186., deorbit, explode or crash with other objects, breaking into smaller pieces of waste.
According to a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) recent report by NASA, at least 26,000 of the millions of pieces of space junk are orbiting along at 17,500 mph, they could “destroy a satellite on impact”. More than 500,000 pieces are a “mission-ending threat” because of their ability to impact 187. systems, fuel tanks and spacecraft cabins.

As similar sce ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nes of chaos and desperation 212. in Kabul(喀布尔)with the conclusion of America's 20-year war in Afghanistan, most analysts said there was little chance the country would repeat the extensive refugee resettlement effort that 213. the end of the war in Vietnam.

If you think ab ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )out it, work-life balance is a strange aspiration for fulfilling life. Balance is about stasis(静止): if our lives were ever in balance — parents happy, kids taken care of, work working then our thought would be to shout “Nobody move!” and pray all would stay perfect forever. This 221. hope is made worse by the implication that work is bad, and life is good; we lose ourselves in work but find ourselves in life; we survive work, but live life.

Learning for a Distracted Generation
Today's students h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave a problem, and it is not the one written on the board. They were born into a world where algorithms (算法) keep them clicking, scrolling and swiping at a rapid pace. Technology, smartphones, social media, and immediate access to the internet are hurting their ability to focus and changing the way they think.
Now teachers have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a problem too. They find it particularly exhausting to ask students to read complex or long texts without taking regular 11.. Smartphones have clearly affected the younger generation, but how education should evolve for digital-native students was not something that was covered when they were getting 12. .
A common 13. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) among teachers is that short is good. When students can't seem to pay attention to long lectures, many teachers simply hack lessons into smaller chunks (模块). In fact, students need time to 14. with a topic once the teacher introduces it before moving on. Switching between small lessons too quickly could rob them of valuable comprehension.
A 2018 study fro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )m educational publisher Pearson found that students aged between 10 and 24 tend to stay away from physical books. They prefer video as a source of information 15. only to teachers. Therefore, some tech-forward teachers choose to “meet kids where they are" on platforms such as YouTube and Instagram. Asha Choksi, vice president of global research at Pearson, gives the example of a teacher who 16. himself performing a science experiment and posts it to YouTube. When it is time for class, he uses the video to 17. materials in the textbook, which can seem boring to students.
Still, while those ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )educators are 18. technology in the classroom to meet students’ needs, they are also finding value in traditional methods, and so suggest a blended (混合的) learning approach. Diregt instruction from them will never be replaced in their classes. Technology will be 19. only when it improves a lesson in ways that are impossible offline.
Digital natives ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )will continue to eagerly adopt new media. Teachers have no choice but to adapt. They are making an effort not only to ensure that students take advantage of new technologies, but to teach students valuable skills that can help them succeed in a world 20. trying to distract them. Think of the Zuckerbergs, the Gates, the Jobs and all those pioneers in the tech world. They became successful not because they could code; it was because they could think.

Secrets are bad for your health

Many of us like to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) believe that sweeping unpleasant truths under the rug might make them 23. go away. Instead,keeping secrets--especially heavy ones--can spin an even more 24. web of isolation and deception. So why do we do it?

The French Icon Who Revolutionized Women’s Clothes
In fashion folklore, G ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )abrielle Coco Chanel is famously credited as the designer who popularized trousers, making them a key piece in women’s wardrobes, and also for helping to liberate women from the tyranny of the corset (紧身衣). Instead of caging them in stuffy designs, her clothes 31. freedom of movement, mobility and comfort. She broke down dressing codes by borrowing elements of men’s fashion, such as pockets and tweed (粗花呢). Like any good pioneer, Chanel’s 32. of societal and gender stereotypes early in her career confused some, and inspired others.
Indeed, a look b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ack at Chanel’s earlier career places her within the Roaring 20s, a time of indulgence driven by 33. economy and post-war recovery. Chanel was responding to the mood of the decade, designing clothes for women who exerted their new-found 34. by chopping off their hair and dancing to American jazz music all night. It’s easy to see why some view her as a feminist icon. Words like “feminine” and “femininity” appear often to describe her creations, though she never talked in these terms. What is really obvious, nevertheless, is that she placed women at the center of her creations and 35. her life to imagining a new way for women to experience fashion.
While the life ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of the legendary designer—for her 36. childhood as an abandoned orphan to the 37. that she was a spy for German intelligence—has been scrutinized (仔细审视) in film and books since her death in 1971, the body of her work and her contribution to women’s fashion is far less understood.
“There are more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) than a hundred biographies about her, which talk mostly about her private life,” says Miren Arzalluz, co-curator of Gabrielle Chanel: Fashion Manifesto. “We thought we knew her. But what we realized was that we lacked a 38. knowledge of her work. As curators, we rediscovered Chanel.”
Take the iconic ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) tweed suit, for example. The two-piece costume, 39. recognizable as signature Chanel, remains a staple in the modern woman’s luxury wardrobe nearly 70 years after it was first introduced to the world, and is 40. frequently in cheap versions by other brands. But beyond its aesthetic, there are definitive reasons that the suit has become an enduring classic. The secret lies in the details: the jacket was designed to be soft and light and the skirt is designed to rests comfortably on top of the hips and angles slightly backwards to hang below the knee, offering the wearer freedom of movement.

Cities around ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the world are racing to declare themselves "smart". Smart cities make two fundamental promises: lots of data and automated decision-making based on that data. The ultimate smart city will require lots of existing and to-be-invented technologies, from sensors to artificial intelligence. For many, this promises a safer and more efficient city; for others, it raises questions about privacy and algorithmic (算法的)bias.
However, there ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is a more 41. concern when it comes to smart cities: They will be very complex to manage, with all sorts of unpredictable vulnerabilities.
As we know all too ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )well from our personal lives, technology ages rapidly, with glitches(小故障)becoming increasingly common only a couple of years into its life. We accept regular disruptions in the internet and cellphone functions as a fact of life.
But would we accept ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the same 42. of disruption in, say, our water and power services City infrastructure is designed to last decades or centuries and must always work.
Managing all the se ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nsors and data will require a municipal administration 43. by tech experts. Since current average salaries for tech workers are 44. higher than for public employees, such an administration is likely to be expensive. Besides, new technology in 2020 will be outdated before 2025. If we widely use smart tech in cities, we need to be 45. to replace it every few years, with the associated disruption and cost. But who will assume those costs
Cities must ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )plan for the inevitable moments when the sensors fail to matter how often we maintain them. Failures in engineered systems tend to come at the most 46. times, like when a storm drops high levels of water and, at the same time, knocks out the electricity to a smart water management system.
The most 47. ques ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tion, however, is whether having a smart city will make us better at solving urban problems. Data and algorithms alone don't add very much on their own. No matter how much data a city has, addressing urban challenges will still require stable long-term 48., good management and effective personnel. If smart data identifies a road that needs paving, it still needs people to show up with tools.
As an infrastructure e ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ngineer, I seek the simplest effective solution to a problem with a(n) 49. of negative consequences. For many of our urban challenges, we don't always need new technologies or new ideas; we need the 50. and courage to use the best of the old ideas.

With the rapi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d growth of the aging population in China, the installation of elevators in old communities has gradually become an inevitable issue. A lot of neighborhoods are living no longer 51. due to the living ills of their six-story, elevator-less buildings.
Recently, a r ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )esidential 52. in Hangzhou has come up with an initiative designed to 53. the problem as to how to raise funds for facilities much-needed by elderly residents, which are called “public transit elevators.” Pay one yuan, and you can take the ride once, just like taking a bus. The price remains unchanged whether you take the lift by yourself or with your whole family. From my perspective, this 54. solution is quite necessary, but still needs improvement.
The greatest conce ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rn is the price. Residents in old communities have been at odds with one another regarding how to most effectively distribute the necessary money with which to pay for the installation of elevators. Most residents living on lower floors are 55. reluctant to pay for an elevator to be installed given that it will likely end up occupying their common area of public space. For those living on higher floors, however, the lack of elevator can often be quite 56., especially for the elderly. Therefore, although the installation charge has been cut down to a very low level by adding pay-to-use elevators, how to properly allocate(分配) the 57. costs involved remains to be negotiated. Another problem has 58. concerning who’ll ultimately pay for the ride, suppose two families share one elevator at the same time.
Much easier ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )as it is to work things on paper, it requires a considerable investment of financial and material resources in its initial stage, and it will only be able to 59. subtle returns, at least in the short run, making it challenging for whatever authority to carry out the proposal.
Still we have to p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lace ourselves in the position in which we can best serve the greater society and by this, treat the issue in a more reasonable 60. so as to minimize any potential losses.

For more tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n three centuries, the American colonies and later, the United States have been a place for many "have-nots" to make the "American Dream" come true for themselves and to become "haves." And the optimism that people have, knowing that this61.will always happen, has grown out of some key elements in the history of the nation, a nation that has differed profoundly from every other country in the world. The economic62.of the nation will also be very much tied to these success stories. Three characteristics have contributed to such attainments.
First, the United Sta ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tes had natural resources undreamed of in other parts of the world. For farmers and ranchers there was land, often to be had cheaply or even for free. There were endless forests to supply lumber and rich63.of coal, oil, silver, copper and gold. Besides, critical to the development of these resources was a population of both native-born Americans and immigrant who were connected by their common work ethic. This ethic held that industry and thrift should be
64.with - as Ben ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )jamin Franklin says -- "a State of Affluence and some Degree of Reputation in the World," These Americans believed in self improvement as well as in the nobility of all kinds of work. They also, if somewhat65., often linked material success with spiritual movement. Next, by and large, America was characterized by a(n) 66.class structure. In contrast to England and other European countries with their history of aristocrats(贵族), this country was filled by numerous communities in which family connections or67.money counted for little.
However, the pur ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )suit of American Dream sometimes also proved to be a source of tension and strain. At the beginning of the 20th century, writers like Jack London and F. Scott Fitzgerald depicted a lot of "have-not" characters whose fate is not a matter of free will. They are68.by forces beyond their control. Often, in their works, children or young people are victimized by poverty that prevents them from69.themselves. Convinced that a person's destiny is the result of his or her heredity interacting with the environment, they employ many70. details to explore the oppressive world in which their characters are trapped. Analyzing characters' assumptions and values continued to illuminate the American experience.

On Jan. 22, two days a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )fter Chinese officials first publicized the serious threat posed by the new virus ravaging the city of Wuhan, the chief of the World Health Organization held the first of what would be months of almost daily media briefings, 81. the alarm, telling the world to take the outbreak seriously.
But with its offic ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ials 82., the W.H.O., still seeing no evidence of sustained spread of the virus outside of China, declined the next day to declare a global public health emergency. A week later, the organization reversed course and made the declaration.
Those early days of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the epidemic 83. the strengths and weaknesses of the W.H.O., an arm of the United Nations that is now under fire by President Trump, who on Tuesday ordered a cutoff of American funding to the organization.
With limited, cons ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tantly 84. information to go on, the W.H.O. showed an early, consistent determination to treat the new contagion(接触性传染病) like the threat it would become, and to persuade others to do the same. At the same time, the organization repeatedly praised China, acting and speaking with a political 85. born of being an arm of the United Nations, with few resources of its own, unable to do its work without international cooperation.
It was on the day ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of the lockdown in Wuhan that the W.H.O. at first declined to declare a global emergency, its officials split and expressing concern about 86. a particular country as a threat, and about the impact of such a declaration on people in China. Such caution is a standard — if often 87. — fact of life for United Nations agencies, which operate by consensus(共识) and have usually avoided even a hint of criticizing nations directly.
It is impossib ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )le to know whether the nations of the world would have acted sooner if the W.H.O. had called the epidemic a global emergency a week earlier than it did.
But day after day, Dr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ). Tedros, in his rambling(冗长含糊的) style, was delivering less formal warnings, telling countries to contain the virus while it was still possible, to do testing and 88. tracing, and isolate those who might be infected.
The organiza ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tion was criticized for not 89. calling the contagion a pandemic, meaning an epidemic spanning the globe. The 90. has no official significance within the W.H.O., and officials insisted that using it would not change anything, but Dr. Tedros began to do so on March 11, explaining that he made the change to draw attention because too many countries were not taking the group’s warnings seriously enough.

Antibodies play a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )key role in the immune system. They begin the process of getting rid of the invaders that may cause harm or infection. This lesson 91.how antibodies work and the different kinds of antibodies.
What Are Antibodies
Antibodies, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )also known as immunoglobulins, are Y-shaped proteins that are produced by the immune system to help stop intruders from harming the body. When an intruder enters the body, the immune system 92.into action. These invaders, which are called antigens (抗原), can be viruses, bacteria, or other chemicals. When an antigen is found in the body, the immune system will create antibodies to mark the antigen for the body to destroy.
Function
The antibodies act so ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rt of like the immune system’s scouts. They find antigens, stick to them, and 93.for the immune system the 94.type of antigen so that it can be destroyed. Each antibody is made for one and only one antigen, and it’s fitted with special receptors that will only 95.to that antigen. For instance, a specific antibody is created to help destroy the chickenpox virus. Only that particular antibody will attack a chickenpox virus.
How Antibodies Fight Antigens
So what happens when ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) an antigen tries to enter the body When it does, the immune system is 96.. Chemical signals are sent to 97.all the different parts of the immune system into action.21·cn·jy·com
First, the virus is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )met by a type of cell called B cells. The B cells are responsible for creating antibodies to match the antigen. Remember, each type of antibody matches to only one antigen. After the B cells have created their antibodies, the antibodies stick to the virus, marking it for the next round of 98.. T cells are then ordered to attack the antigen that the antibodies have marked for it.
After the anti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gen has been destroyed, the cleanup crew comes along. A wave of phagocytes large cells that can consume foreign matter, eats the 99.of the infection.
Immunizations
After an infec ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tion is defeated, the antibodies still remain in the body. They are left there to wait in case that particular antigen returns. Immunizations take advantage of the fact that antibodies remain in the body after an infection is eradicated. Most immunizations consist of a weak or diluted form of an antigen-not enough of the antigen to make the patient sick, but just enough to trigger the creation of antibodies. This way, the body can100.attack any form of the infection it encounters, stopping the infections before they begin.
