There may be a 1 between later bedtimes and weight gain, new research suggests.

Researchers studied 3, 342 adolescents starting in 1996, 2 them through 2009. At three

points over the years, all reported their 3 bedtimes, as well as information on fast food

consumption, exercise and television 4 . The scientists 5 Body Mass Index

After Controlling for age, sex, race, ethnicity and socioeconomic 6 , the researchers found

that each hour 7 bedtime during the school or workweek was 8 with

about a two-point increase in B.M.I. The effect was 9 even among people

we change sleep patterns, can we change eating 16 and the course of weight change?

Technology is playing a vital role in preservation and ecology research. Drones (无人机) hold huge

1 in the fight to save the world's remaining wildlife from extinction. So researchers can now track wild

animals through dense forests and monitor whales in vast oceans. It's estimated that up to five living species

become extinct every day, making it urgent that universities develop new technologies to capture the data that

can persuade 2 to act.

The British International Education Association hosted a conference in January to 3 the

importance of technological solutions in protecting vulnerable (易受伤害的) species and ecosystems. Speakers

underlined how technology can help 4 : drones can circle high above the ocean to spot whales,

while certain cameras can identify members of an individual species.

According to Claudio Sillero, biology professor at Oxford University, technology is changing how preservation

research is done — but it's in a(n) 5 way. As technology gets better and cheaper, researchers

become better at doing what they were already doing. 6 , remote sensing used to be a very

technical tool but is now widespread, and everyone uses global positioning system (GPS) for surveying.

But teaching preservation and ecology courses in university 7 . Some teach drone surveying

methods in depth while others don't even mention them. "The fact is, using drones is quite a(n)

8 to the interdisciplinary (跨学科的) 'unknown' of engineering, and potentially an area where lecturers

may not feel confident to teach yet," Serge Wich, an expert in primate biology says. "Students are taught about

9 technologies such as automatic sound recorders, but drones are often missing from university

teaching. Consequently, drone use among researchers is still fairly 10 and focused on getting

photos."

Wich's team of researchers used techniques to develop a fully automated drone technology system that

11 and monitors the health of endangered animals globally. It's designed to be cheap, stable and simple

to use, so that local communities in developing countries can operate it 12 without technical

background. Yet it's not more widely used on the grounds of researchers' lack of skills to use this technology. In

biology, where drones are used, few can program an algorithm (算法) specifically for their preservation or

research problem. "There's much that needs to be done to 13 those two worlds and to make

AI more user-friendly so that people who can't program can still use the technology," Wich says.

14 , the sad truth is that better technology alone will not save any more species from dying

out, Greengrass warns. "As human populations increase, so do threats and pressure on wild places.

Recently, the Victorian Government brought in new rules. Victorian state schools will be banned from using

facial recognition technology in classrooms unless they have the 1 of parents, students and

the Department of Education.

Students may be justifiably horrified at the thought of being 2 as they move throughout

the school during a day. But a roll marking system could be as simple as looking at a tablet or iPad once a day

3 being signed off on a paper roll. It simply depends on the implementation. Trials have already begun

in independent schools and up to 100 campuses across Australia. According to the developers, the technology

promises to save teachers up to 2.5 hours a week by 4 the need for them to mark the roll at

the start of every class. Many students now have smart phones that recognise faces right now. There are also

5 face recognition apps for Android phones and iPhones. So face recognition is already in our schools.

And I argue that, like earlier technologies such as the motor vehicle and mobile phone, a strategy where

adoption is managed to create the most good and least harm is appropriate. We shouldn't simply

6 it.

We are now in a golden age of face recognition. The main reason for rapid adoption is that recognition

7 has improved significantly in recent years. The simple application of this technology proposed for

schools is to collect the student roll call 8 for classes. This is a compulsory requirement

imposed by the education department.

However, 9 is often raised as an objection and this issue can never be dismissed lightly.

Objections are mostly based on the collection and distribution of the photos. But every school

would necessarily be built into any school certified system. The only fundamental 11 of the

process is whether a teacher or a computer recognizes the student.

Face recognition technologies will become widely adopted across society over the coming years. Concerns

over implementation and privacy may 12 adoption in some places, but the

After my public lectures on evolution, someone in the audience asks, "Are we still evolving?" People want to

know if humans are getting taller, smarter, better looking or more athletic. My answer is truthful but

1 : We're almost certainly evolving, but we don't know in what 2 or how fast.

We've seen some evolution in our species over the past few millennia, but it was detected by reconstructing

history from DNA sequences. For example, we know that during the past 10,000 years, several populations of

humans — those keeping sheep, cows or goats for milk— gained the ability to digest dairy products. This quality

was 3 in our earlier ancestors who, after babyhood, never encountered milk. And in the past

3,000 years, Tibetans have acquired 4 adaptations that allowed them to develop well in their

high-altitude, low-oxygen home. But these well-documented changes are limited to particular populations, so

the 5 for recent evolution of our entire species, remains not much.

The authors of "Evolving Ourselves" 6 . Not only, they claim, are we evolving faster than

ever, but we're doing it to ourselves. Juan Enriquez and Steve Gullans argue that humans have

7 evolution — not just in our own species but virtually in all species: "For better or worse, we are

increasingly in charge. We are the primary drivers of 8 . We will directly and indirectly

determine what lives, what dies, where, and when. We are in a different phase of evolution: the future of life is

now 9 ."

According to the authors, we've replaced natural selection with what they call " 10

selection." Overfishing, for example, has reduced the average size of many fish species, for taking the biggest

fishes is 11 those smaller fishes.

Yet while there's no doubt that we're changing the planet, the claim that we're completely changing

evolution on the planet 12 . Let's take those fish that are evolving to reproduce smaller and

younger for example. This 13 has been documented in many species that we eat, but this is

just a minuscule fraction (极小的一部分) of the 30,000 known species of fish.

The authors speak with 14 assurance about how our species is evolving in response to

nearly everything. When they claim, for example, our ingestion (摄取) of drugs and exposure to chemicals mean

that "our children's brains are evolving fast," they are abusing (滥用) the word " 15 ." Our

children's brains may be changing fast in response to the new pharmacological (药理学的) environment, but

change alone is not evolution.

“Nature and Nurture”

People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviour are formed. However, it is not

easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative and another is

1 .

Social scientists are of course 2 interested in these types of questions. They want to explain

why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviour. There are no clear answers yet, but two

3 schools of thought on the matter have developed. As one might expect, the two approaches are very

different from each other, and there is a great deal of debate between 4 of each theory. The

controversy(争论) is often conveniently referred to as “nature and nurture”.

Those who 5 the “nature” side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behaviour

patterns are 6 determined by biological factors. That our environment has little, if anything, to

do with our abilities, characteristics and behaviour is 7 to this theory. Taken to an extreme, this

theory states that our behaviour is predetermined to such a great degree that we are almost completely

governed by our 8 .

Supporters of the “nurture” theory, or, as they are often called, 9 , claim that our

environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act. A

behaviorist, B. F. Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behaviour is almost completely 10 by

their surroundings. The behaviorists' view of the human being is quite mechanistic. They state that, like

machines, humans respond to 11 stimuli(刺激) as the basis of their behaviour.

Socially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are 12 . In the US, for

example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests. This leads some “nature”

supporters to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites are. Behaviorists,

13 , say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the

educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop

the same 14 that whites do.

Neither of these theories can yet fully explain human behaviour. As a matter of fact, it is quite 15

that the key to our behaviour lies somewhere between these two extremes and that the controversy will

continue for a long time is certain.

Imagine loving someone so much that you'd swim more than 5, 000 miles to see him or her. Dindim manages

to swim that far every year to 1 his friend Joao. This is 2 not only because

of the love between the two friends, but because Dindim is 3 a penguin. Joao found Dindim

covered in oil, barely 4 on a beach near his home. He picked him up, cleaned him off and

brought him to his house where he 5 him and got him healthy again. Joao named him Dindim.

After a week, he 6 the penguin back to the beach and tried to release him,

7 Dindim refused to leave Joao. They 8 together for the next eleven months. Then,

Dindim disappeared. 9 Joao thought he'd never see his friend again. But just a few months

10 Dindim was back. He found Joao on the beach, and followed him home. Each year he 11

four months to live with other penguins. For the other eight months, he lives with Joao. Joao says that each time

they meet again, Dindim seems 12 to see him. He says he loves the penguin as if he were his

own 13 He feels certain that Dindim loves him in the 14 way. Ecologist Carl

Safina says that animals can and do love humans. He writes and speaks a lot about animals and their

15 . According to Carl, it's obvious that animals feel love for humans. What's less obvious is whether or

not humans love animals enough to 16 them. Hundreds of thousands of animals are

17 by the same oil that covered Dindim when Joao found him.

Fifty percent of 18 has disappeared in the last 40 years because of humans'
