POTATO CHIPS
One f the wrld’s favrite snacks is the result f a cmplaint. In 1853, a man was eating dinner at Mn’s Lake Huse in Saratga Springs, New Yrk. He rdered fried ptates, a particular side dish. But when they came ut f the kitchen, he didn’t think they were crispy enugh.

In the 1930s, the Flakall Cmpany f Wiscnsin made animal fd frm small, flaked pieces f grain. One day, an emplyee, Edward Wilsn, watched wrkers puring crnmeal(谷粉) int the flaking machine, wetting it t keep it frm clgging(堵
塞). Because the machine was very ht, the wet crnmeal came ut f it in puffy(蓬松的) ribbns that
hardened when they hit the air. Wilsn tk sme f the ribbns hme, added il and flavring t them, and vila! Cheese puffs!

My mther is the mst imprtant persn in my life and she means the whle wrld t me. She was a
nurse at Stny Brk University Hspital and she always tk the night shift s that she culd cme hme in time t drive me t schl. She’d sleep during the day and be ready when I returned hme befre heading ut again in the evening. This went n fr 23 years. She never cmplained. N matter hw tired she was, she always had enugh energy t be my mum.
She ften had t wrk n Christmas, Christmas Eve r New Year’s Eve, and smetimes Thanksgiving,
which made me upset. Hwever, befre hlidays she always decrated the inside and utside f ur huse. She’d als have ckies baking in the ven, a hliday-themed mvie in the VCR, and music playing thrughut ur huse fr me. But when it was time t g t wrk, there was n rm fr debate. “Why d yu have t wrk n this day f all days?” I’d ask sadly. “They need me, t, dear sn,” she’d respnd, cmpassin in her tne.
Fr a lng time I didn’t understand why she shuld care s much abut thse sick strangers. Recently,
my grandmther became ill and I fund myself spending mre time in hspital. The scenes I saw in the hspital made me see the different side f my mther. The nurses checked heart, bld and xygen levels, and made sure patients were cmfrtable. They lifted patients in and ut f bed and helped them t the bathrm. Beynd their duties, the nurses displayed cnsideratin fr each patient.

If yu start a sentence with, “If I were yu…” r find yurself scratching yur head ver a decisin when the answer is crystal-clear, there’s a scientific reasn behind it. Our wn decisin-making abilities can becme exhausted ver the curse f the day causing indecisin r pr chices, but chsing n behalf f smene else is an enjyable task that desn’t suffer the same difficulties.
“The prblem is decisin fatigue(疲劳), a psychlgical phenmenn that causes harm t the quality
f yur chices after a lng day f decisin making,” says Evan Plman, a leading psychlgist.
Physicians n the jb fr several hurs, fr example, are mre likely t prescribe antibitics(抗生素)
t patients when it’s unwise t d s. “Presumably(可能) it’s because it’s simple and easy t write a prescriptin and cnsider a patient case clsed rather than investigate further,” Plman says.
But decisin fatigue ges away when yu are making the decisin fr smene else. When peple
imagine themselves as advisers, they feel less tired and rely less n decisin shrtcuts. “By taking upn the
rle f adviser rather than decisin maker, ne des nt suffer the cnsequences f decisin fatigue,” he says. “It is as if there is smething fun abut making smene else’s chice.”
“Getting input frm thers ffers a fresh perspective and thught prcess, but it ften includes riskier
chices. While this sunds undesirable, it can be quite gd. When peple experience decisin fatigue, r are tired f making chices, they have a tendency t chse t g with status qu(现状),” says Plman. “But it can be prblematic since a change in the curse f actin can be imprtant and lead t a psitive utcme.”
T achieve a successful utcme r reward, sme level f risk is almst always essential. “Peple
wh are susceptible t decisin fatigue will likely chse t d nthing ver smething,” he says. “That’s nt t say risk is always gd, but it is related t taking actin, whereas decisin fatigue assuredly leads t inactin and the pssible chagrin(懊恼) f a decisin maker wh might therwise prefer a new curse but is unfrtunately hindered(阻碍).”
“That yu can make gd chices fr thers desn’t mean yu will d the same fr yurself,”
Plman cautins. “Research has fund that wmen negtiate higher salaries fr thers than they d fr themselves,” he says, adding that peple slip in and ut f decisin rles.
What des the authr say abut peple making decisins?
They tend t make decisins the way they think advantageus t them.
They may becme exhausted making t many decisins fr themselves.
They shw cnsiderable differences in their decisin-making abilities.
They are mre cautius in making decisins fr thers than fr themselves.
When d peple feel less decisin fatigue?
When they take decisin shrtcuts.
When they have advisers t turn t.
When they have majr decisins t make.
When they help thers t make decisins.
What are peple likely t d when decisin fatigue sets in?
They avid trying anything new.
They turn t physicians fr advice.
They tend t make risky decisins.
They adpt a ttally new perspective.
What des the passage say abut taking sme risk in decisin making?
It will enable peple t be mre creative.
It will mre ften than nt end in regret.
It is vital fr ne t reach the gal desired.
It is likely t bring abut serius cnsequences. D
A magnitude-7.8 earthquake hit sutheastern Turkey and parts f Syria in the early hurs f the
mrning f 6 February. At least 41,000 peple are knwn t have lst their lives. Erdgan declared a three-mnth state f emergency in 10 suthern prvinces. Flags were lwered t half-staff as the cuntry bserved seven days f natinal murning. He said 13 millin f the cuntry’s 85 millin peple were affected in sme way by the disaster.
Hw big is a 7.8 quake n the lcal magnitude scale? The number attributed t an earthquake
represents a cmbinatin f the distance the fault line(断层) has mved and the frce that mved it. A quake f 2.5 r less usually cannt be felt, but can be detected by instruments. Quakes f up t five are felt and cause minr damage. An earthquake at 7.8 is classified as majr and usually causes serius damage, as it has in this instance. Anything abve 8 causes catastrphic damage and can ttally destry cmmunities at its centre. While the magnitude f an earthquake dentes(表示) its size and strength, the ptential damage caused by a quake is als determined by its depth (the shallwer the quake, the mre damaging) and its prximity t ppulatin centers.
Turkey is in an active earthquake zne. Mst f Turkey sits n the Anatlian plate between tw majr
faults: the Nrth Anatlian Fault and the East Anatlian Fault. “Turkey is mving west abut 2 centimeters per year alng the East Anatlian Fault,” says David Rthery, a gescientist. “Half the length f this fault is lit up nw with earthquakes.” he adds.
The hrrr f the near-instantaneus destructin raises a questin: why didn’t anyne knw the
earthquake was cming? The answer is tricky. Althugh scientists can predict disasters like hurricanes r flds, they cannt yet d the same with earthquakes. Earthquakes accunt fr nearly half f all deaths frm natural disasters ver almst tw decades, accrding t the Wrld Health Organizatin.

My wife, Hannah, and I dn’t usually keep huseplants. Anything in pts gets either verwatered r
underwatered. But after my 41 with gliblastma, a terminal brain cancer, I lved the idea f having
smething new and green arund.
At this mment, my friend Mitch gave me what he said was a lucky bamb plant in a deep-green
pttery bwl. I tld Hannah I wanted t 42 the plant myself. When it didn’t immediately turn yellw
r brwn r lse all its leaves, I was pleasantly 43 .
Tending t the plant gave me a sense f accmplishment at a time when I smetimes felt 44 .
Since my diagnsis, I had t rely n help frm ther peple. Gliblastma 45 my ability t walk, and
the treatment left me exhausted, making it hard fr me t 46 everyday tasks. As a family physician, I
was used t being the ne wh prvided care, nt the ne wh 47 it.
48 , mysteriusly, the plant began t shw signs f stress. N matter what I did, the leaves kept brwning and drpping t the flr. I grew mre and mre frustrated and uneasy.
“I can’t even care fr a simple plant!” I yelled. “I’m failing. If my lucky bamb dies, I might diein ur nse, and the acid in ur stmachs – are part f ur innate immune systems. Innate immunity is the t!”
immune system that yu inherit and it’s active as sn as yu’re brn. 38 Instead, it attacks bradly, “But yu are 49 the life f the plant, yurself and even the peple wh have cared fr andwhich is why it is unable t get rid f all germs.
The immune system als learns things – this is called adaptive immunity. When yur immune system
is expsed t a new germ fr the first time, it respnds by trying t fight it ff – which means yu may
becme sick. 39
Experience makes yur immune system strnger. The first time yur bdy cmes int cntact with a certain type f germ, yur immune system respnse may take a while. Yu might need several days t make and use all the germ-fighting parts yu need t get rid f yur infectin. It takes time t hack the
50 yu. That really matters.” Hannah said.
Suddenly, I realized that 51 the plant, as small an act as it was, cnnected me t my ld 52
