Doggie!” I dropped what I was doing

28、 and stuck my head out of the door. Brandy, our next-door neighbors 11-year-old dog, was over again. “Go away!” I shouted. Brandys owner had died about a month earlier. The womans family had emptied the house and stuck a “For Sale” sign in the front yard, but the family had left old Brandy behind. F

29、or weeks, shed been wandering around the neighborhood. It wasnt that I disliked dogs or anything like that. I just didnt think about them very much. I never had a dog growing up and had never thought to get one. Brandy went away and I stayed outside with Adam. Then the phone rang. I went inside to t

30、ake the call. When I came back, Adam was gone. I searched the yard, front and back, then the basketball court and public pool. No trace of him. I was so nervous that I ran home and called the police, then my husband. Police searched the neighborhood. Suddenly I heard another sound: a dog barking. “I

31、ts coming from the woods.” one of my neighbors said. We followed the barking to a wooded cliff. There we found my son, and he was just inches away from the edges of the cliff, fast asleep. Brandy was beside him, leaning against him to keep him away from the edge. When I picked Adam up, Brandy sank d

32、own on her side, breathing quickly. She must have been holding Adam there for hours!I thanked the police and brought Adam and Brandy back to our house. She hesitated a moment on our doorstep, no doubt remembering the time Id driven her away. “Come on, girl.” I said. “This is your home now.” Brandy s

33、tepped in, and once she saw she was really welcome, she relaxed and lay down on the floor just inside the door. Shed done a great thing, and I wondered if she knew it. Shed certainly touched me in a way that no animal ever had. What a pity a dog like Brandy had been left behind!56.Whatdidthewomandow

35、ng, Liaoning Province, reportedly blocked streets with their vehicles on Sunday in protest against unlicensed vehicles using taxi-hiring apps (打車軟件) and apps-based car rental companies providing passenger services, including high-end cars. Although the drivers also complained about the withdrawal of

36、 the fuel subsidy(補貼) by the government, their main complaint was the loss of business because of the rising number of Internet-based car services companies.On Wednesday, news reports came that Beijing transport authorities will take measures to stop the illegal “taxi business” of private cars throu

37、gh the newly rising Internet apps, following the footsteps of Shenyang and Nanjing.It is not yet clear how the Shenyang city government will handle the issue and whether it will declare the services offered by market leaders such as Didi Dache, a taxi-hiring app provider backed by Tencent Holdings,

38、and Kuaidi Dache illegal. But Shanghai transport regulators have set a rule, by banning Didi Zhuanche, or car services offered by Didi Dache in December.Such regulations will cause a setback to the car-hiring companies and investors that are waiting to cash in on the potentially booming business. Ju

39、st last month, Didi Dache got $700 million in funding from global investors, including Singapore state investment company Temasek Holdings, Russian investment company DST Global and Tencent. Besides, the market is uncertain that Kuaidi Dache is about to finalize its latest round of funding after get

40、ting $800 million from global investors.Regulatory uncertainties, however, could cast a shadow on the future of the Internet-based car-hiring services, which have become popular in most of Chinas big cities. To be fair, these companies business model is anything but bad. For example, Didi Zhuanche w

41、orks side by side with established car rental companies to provide high-end car service mainly for businesspeople through the Internet and mobile phone apps.Every link in this business model chain has legal companies and services. Therefore, it is hard to define it as illegal and ban it. 58.Whydidta

About 59% of engineering compan

45、ies in the IETs 2014 survey feared skill shortages could threaten business. “There is nothing as creative as engineering,” Sir John told the reporter. He says science, technology, engineering and mathematicsoften known as “Stem” subjects, are vital for a modern knowledge economy. But there is a mass

46、ive shortfall in the number of recruits(招聘) with a recent study by the Royal Academy of Engineering saying the UK needs to increase by as much as 50% the number of Stem graduates it produces. Delivering this years Mountbatten Lecture at the Royal Institution, Sir John argued that engineers should re

47、cognise the role of the arts in their workamong other benefits; this could attract more people into the profession. The lecture, Full Steam Ahead for Growth, advocated a wider adoptionSteam, or science, technology, engineering, arts and maths. Engineers should embrace the arts as being key to creati

48、vity and an important component of innovation(創(chuàng)新), important to creating new products and boosting future competitiveness, he argued. “Engineering and technology is an increasingly diverse and creative field,” said Sir John. Some university engineering departments already cooperated with art schools

49、 to develop understanding, he told the reporter. In particular he mentioned Cranfield Universitys Centre for Creative Competitive Design and Imperial Colleges work with the Royal College of Art. The two sets of people could work well together and more emphasis on the creative side of engineering cou

50、ld improve the success of products, he said. “Aesthetics(美學) is part of it,” he told the reporter, adding that Apples iPod was not the first digital media player, nor the only one that workedbut it came to dominate the market “because it was nice to have”.Sir John said he was not suggesting universi

51、ties started requiring A-level art from engineering applicantsthe key subjects for admission would continue to be maths and the sciences. But an emphasis on creative skills would help “broaden the pool and attract more people in”. 61. According to a recent study by the Royal Academy _.A. skill short

56、r.DOne day one of my self-proclaimed(自稱的) Month of Gratitude, my five-year-old son woke up “bored” at 5:15 a.m., I spied a speeding ticket in my wifes purse, and our water heater spluttered to its death as I was getting into the shower. Ordinarily, I would have started complaining and the day would

57、have been off to an ugly start. But this day was different. How cute my childs dimples (酒窩) are. How fetching my wifes taste for adventure. Only 29 days to go.Just a week earlier, as I struggled with the feeling that Id been put on this earth to load and unload the dishwasher, Id decided it was time

58、 to end my reflexive complaining. But it wasnt simply the little things that were annoying me. All of a sudden, my friends were dealing with bad newscancer diagnoses, divorce, job loss. Shouldnt I be celebrating my relative good fortune?Id heard about the feel-good benefits of a gratitude attitude.

59、Hoping for tips, I called professor Emmons, who pioneered research on the benefits of positive thinking. Emmons quoted new studies that indicated that even pretending to be thankful raises levels of the chemicals associated with pleasure and contentment. He recommended keeping a log of everything Im

60、 grateful for in a given week or month.I followed his suggestions, but my first attempts at keeping a gratitude list were pretty weak: coffee, naps, caffeine in general. As my list grew, I found more uplift: freshly picked blueberries; the Beatles White Album; that Im not bald.By day three, I was on

61、 a tear, thanking every grocery bagger and parent on the playground like Id just won an Oscar and hanging Post-it notes to remind myself of the next days thank-you targets: the mailman, my sons math teacher. But soon, the full-on approach started to burn me out. Researchers call it the Pledge of Allegiance(效忠誓言)
