Scientists have invented a font (字体) called Sans Forgetica. It is back-slanted (反斜的) and there are openings in each letter. So what's the of this reader —unfriendly font?
In fact, Sans Forgetica is the first font which is to help people remember things. Its designer Steven Brian said, "The unexpected obstacles (障碍) slow your reading speed down. They make your brain work harder. It should be easier for you to remember what you are doing"Scientists have tested Sans Forgetica on 4,400 students in online .They said they were satisfied with the result.
However. scientists say that teachers should not print all reading materials in the font. If students read everything in this font, their brains will get too comfortable again. They will ignore the key points.

Emma is a life-size doll (木偶) created by a team of health experts. They think this is what an office worker might look like in 20 years. The model is based on a of more than 3,000 office workers in France. Germany and the UK. Nearly 50% of them are from backache, sore eves and weight gain. All the problems are the results of sitting at a desk and looking at a computer screen all day.
"If we don't make changes, these bad habits are going to make us very sick," said William, the leader of the study. So don't let Emma become waste. Take her as a warning. We should our posture (姿势) at the desk, and have short breaks from time to time during the day. Otherwise, the world could be full of Emmas in 2040. That would be .

Mr. White asked us who responsible for the broken window.
Chloe Hawthorne, the owner of a famous restaurant, received a letter from her regular customer one day.
19th January Dear Ms. Hawthorme I'm writing to express my disappointment with the evening my wife and I spent at your restaurant two nights ago. While the food was, as usual, very good. I regret (感到遗憾) to inform you that the service from our waiter, Max, was most unsatisfactory. First of all, when we arrived, we discovered our table overlooking the garden had been allocated to some other customers. The new table we finally received was by the door and when I complained, Max just laughed. Furthermore, as we were sitting down, he said too much to my wife, which deeply embarrassed her. When our meal came, he served the food carelessly and at the end cleared the plates in an awful manner I look forward to hearing from you with a satisfactory reply Rupert Metcalf |
After reading the letter, Ms. Hawthorne left a message to Max:
Max, this is Chloe Hawthorne. I received a letter from Mr. Metcalf, one of our best customers. He complained about you in it.
Max wrote a letter to Ms. Hawthorne.
22ad January Dear Chloe I'm really thankful that you want to listen to my side of the story. To start with. When Mr. and Mrs. Metcalf finally turned up, they were at least 45 minutes late. That's why the table was allocated to some other customers. As for the other table by the door, I went to a lot of trouble to set it up. When they complained about it. I couldn't help laughing. But I have no reason to laugh at my customer. Another thing, this business about his wife. I only complimented (恭维) her on her dress. She didn't seem to mind. OK. I admit I forgot to clear the table the way I was supposed to I apologize if I have caused you problems, but I've been really popular at the Café. Hope to hear from you soon. All the best. Max |
Perhaps you have heard of Peter Dinklage from the roles he has played in popular TV series such as Game ofThrones (《权利的游戏》). But few know of the man behind the character and his story. His life 1 that a littie body can have huge energy.
The famous actor, who earned three Emmy awards and a Golden Globe award, is just 135 cm tall. His father, mother and brother look like 2 people. But Dinklage has been different from the others since his childhood. The boy was born with a common form of dwarfism (侏儒症). As a result, Peter's legs and arms stopped growing, while his head continued becoming bigger.
There's no doubt that Dinklage's look was a source of trouble at first. The boy was 3and bullied (欺负) by other kids. He felt lonely but he didn't look down upon himself. When he was in the sixth grade, he played his first role in a school play. He was pleased by the audience's 4 to the show. So he decided to become an actor in the future.
After he graduated from high school, Dinklage entered Bennington College, where he studied performing arts. He 5 met several special teachers and friends who managed to help him turn his unusual look into advantage there, which made him unique (独特的). Since then, he has acted in lots of famous films and TV series.
Dinktlage has been looked as a rote model for people with dwarfism. When Dinktage was asked in 2012 whether he saw himself as a spokesman (代言人) for the6of little people, he said, "Everyone's different. Every person's size has a different life, a different history, and different ways of dealing with it. My size doesn't define (下定义) me. It's just part of who I am."
The Dong People(侗族人) and Their Indigo cloth(靛蓝色布)
Yang Xiuying, 74, sits at wooden loom (织布机). As her fingers pass the shuttle (梭子) back and forth through the cotton threads, the old machine comes to life.
Ever since she was a young girl, Yang has been making indigo cloth. "This type of handmade cloth is extremely rare. You h buy it at the market," she said.
For the Dong people in Guizhou, making indigo cloth has a long tradition. The s has been passed down from mother to daughter over generations. Nearly every family makes its own cloth.
This traditional way of making indigo cloth, unfortunately, is now in danger. It will disappear slowly in the modern industry society. Young people show little interest in it. Some of them have m to big cities to find better jobs.
Local officials want to save the tradition. They are trying to change young people's a towards it. One program has set up several cloth-making factories in Guizhou. After learning how to make indigo cloth, young Dong people can find jobs easily. They can also work closer to home.
The Dong people consider indigo cloth as i as rice. Many Dong women spend countless hours making the cloth. They rise and start working very early in the morning. To make the cloth shiny, it must be rubbed (搓) and beaten hard. The noise of cloth being beaten often w the whole village up.
Almost every Dong women over 40 has a tub for indigo dye (染料). The cloth has to be put in the dye for many rounds to gain the rich color. The p of coloring usually takes two weeks.
Yang holds out her purple and wrinkled (有皱纹的) hands. "They say she who has the darkest hands makes the best cloth," she says proudly.
Andrew Bennett talked for the first time about the night his wife was killed. The judge thought it was he who killed his wife. Now he wrote to a magazine from the prison about what happened on the night of November 23.1995.
"I had to stay late at the hospital that night to do an operation. I left at about 11 p.m. I drove home slowly because the weather was terrible. The wind was blowing and it was raining heavily. I was turning into our road when a man suddenly ran in front of my car. I almost hit him but I stopped just in time. I was frightened and the men looked frightened, too. I got out of the car but he ran away before I could ask if he was all right. It was very strange. When I got home, the lights were on but it was very quiet. I called to my wife but there was no answer. Then I remembered that she was out at a concert."
"I was still very upset about what happened on the road. So I went to have a bath. Then I saw that the window in the bathroom was open. This was strange because my wife always locked the doors and windows before she went out. She was afraid of burglars. When I went to close it, I found Ellen lying there, blood everywhere. I rushed over and felt for her pulse but she was dead. I sat on the floor beside her body and was too frightened to do anything."
"The next thing I knew was the sky was getting bright. I can't remember a thing about that night. In the morning I phoned the police. They arrived half an hour after I phoned them. But it seemed like a few hours. During that time I tried hard to remember anything I could about the night before. I couldn't stop thinking about the man in the road. What was he doing on that night in our quiet neighborhood? Why did he look so frightened? Why did he run away?"
