1、多吃時令蔬菜和水果。12月吃春筍、3月吃草莓會造成高速公路上的運輸卡車擁堵。
2、給孩子讀本故事書。這會使你們更親近，並促進孩子的想象力。此外，這對孩子語言能力的開發也是不可或缺的。從未聽過長輩講故事的孩子說話晚，表達能力差。
3、在刷牙時把水龍頭關上。否則每分鍾會有5升水流進下水道。如此算來1個四口之家每次刷牙將耗費60升水[閱讀全文]

怎樣評價一個科學家，這是一個見仁見智的問題。我在這裏介紹(美國)科學界流行的評價標準。這些標準常常用在選擇比較重要大獎的候選人或是用在FIRSTTIER大學正教授晉升。比較公認的是要看一個科學家是否為某個領域的THOUGHTLEADER，也就是說此人的學術觀點在很長的一段時間裏領導這個領域。這些學術觀點對此領域貢獻極大，這個領域的科學家須沿著他的思路往下走，無法[閱讀全文]
