With the rising cost of college tuition, many students compete fiercely to win scholarships each year. There are many scholarship platforms to help students find good scholarships. These grants help students with tuition, housing, and expenses. They may be sponsored by the school, donated by an individual, or sponsored by a corporation. Some are need-based, while others are awarded strictly based on academic performance.
The most common types of scholarships are those awarded by the college or university, and most students applying to a college also apply for any scholarships that are available. Leadership and academic scholarships are the two most common types of scholarships awarded by colleges. A leadership scholarship is awarded for participation in school and extra-curricular activities, as well as for academic excellence. It usually considers participation in the student union, clubs and volunteerism as prime criteria for selection. Academic scholarships may use activities as secondary requirements — the main consideration is the student's academic record. Other types of scholarships include housing and book awards. These scholarships are awarded specifically to help cover the costs of living in the dorm and buying books.
Of all the types of scholarships available, certainly one of the most sought-after is the “full ride” scholarship. The full ride scholarship pays all tuition, fees and housing. This kind of scholarship means the student will not have to depend on student loans to pay for college. Full ride scholarships are the fewest in number and obviously, the most difficult to receive. They usually require that a student should have an exceptional academic record and a good leadership resume (简历), as well as letters of recommendation from teachers or administrators.
When searching for scholarships, a student should consult a guidance counselor at his or her high school and look for information online. Some scholarships are not well-known, but a little digging can often turn up awards that the student might be eligible (有资格的) for. Some people also offer their services as professional scholarship hunters, and some students find that it's worth consulting someone who does this. Finding scholarships is not always easy, but it is almost always worth the effort.

A large catalogue of previous research has proven that honey has the power to kill bacteria. While enduring a cough or cold, many people seek comfort in honey. Although this treatment is popular, scientific evidence of its effectiveness is largely lacking. A recent systematic review attempts to fill this gap in research.
Researchers at the University of Oxford conducted a review of 14 previous studies that involved 1,761 individuals to find out whether or not honey is a worthwhile replacement for over-the-counter cold and cough medicine. They found that honey proved to be a superior treatment when compared with medicinal common cold care. The natural remedy (治疗) reduced symptoms, especially cough frequency and severity, significantly more than common cold medication, according to the study.
The researchers point out that prescribing medicine for upper respiratory tract (上呼吸道的) infections (URTI) is mostly ineffective. Since the majority of URTIs are viral, the antibiotic prescription is both ineffective and inappropriate. Using honey in place of medication could avoid weakening your immune system's response — a serious problem that can cause medication to become ineffective and allow infections to endure, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Another benefit of using honey as a cold remedy is that it is widely available and fairly inexpensive compared to antibiotics and other cold medicine.
However, a range of factors hindered (阻碍) this study's ability to draw firm conclusions. For instance, nine of the studies had only included children as participants, so the results might not apply to adults. Also, a significant number of the included studies did not use pure honey: One used cough syrup, which has a honey base but includes herbs; two combined honey with coffee; one combined honey, coffee, and milk. Overall, the clearest point that this analysis makes is that we need to see more research before we can reach conclusions about honey and URTIs. Although URTIs are, in the global scheme of things, relatively mild, their relationship with antibiotic overprescribing makes honey worthy of further study.

Using generated heat to get rising air inside an envelope of material, the hot air balloon concept has fascinated scientists and businessmen for centuries. Hot air balloons were one of the first methods of flight created by humans. Although their documented history generally began in the 18th century, some evidence suggests that balloons have been in the minds of humans for thousands of years.
China generally claims credit for being the first to make use of the technology. Heated air is lighter than cold air, so if there is a sufficient envelope to trap the air, the device it is attached to will rise. In the 3rd century, small unmanned versions of hot air balloons, called Kongming lanterns, were used as signaling devices during the constant military campaigns of the time. These lanterns were traditionally used at some Chinese festivals. Several balloonists and historians have guessed that the Nazca Indians of Peru could have used hot air balloon technology to assist them in building.
The history of modern ballooning began in Portugal in 1783. Scientist Jean-Francois Pilatre de Rozier conducted the first large-scale balloon test, launching a most likely surprised sheep, duck and rooster into flight before the balloon crashed into the ground. Also in that year, two brothers named Joseph-Michel and Jacques-Etienne Montgolfier carried out the first manned flight in Paris. Ballooning quickly took off as a competitive sport among fans, with attempts being made to set distance and height records. In 1785, a manned balloon was flown across the English Channel, carrying Jean Pierre Blanchard, a French balloonist and John Jefferies, one of the first American balloonists. On 7 January 1793, Blanchard also became the first to operate hot air balloons in America.
Hot air balloons were the first successful attempt by humans to reach above our familiar surface. While the later aviation (航空) technology had little to do with the science behind hot air balloons, the dream of flight was given true possibility by their success. Balloon flights are still popular today, with hot air balloons spreading across a perfect sky.
