Doctors may expect individualized organs grown or 3D printed using their patients' own cells. After all, scientists' creation of hearts, kidneys, and livers has already had some success in the labs. Even external body parts including skin and ears have been grown.
Pharmaceutical artisan (制药师)
The increasing popularity of 3D printing may enable the quick production of the medicine based on individual needs. It's possible that artisanal drugs would be created according to one's unique genes, habits, and medical history.
Brain implant specialist
We are making greater progress in understanding how the complex human brain works, so it's highly possible that we would create something amazing by combining the rapid advances in neuroscience (神经科学) with the advantages of computer technology. In the future, one can have a specialized computer chip put into his brain to treat certain health issues, such as diseases, mood disorders, and paralysis.
Once upon a time, a daughter complained to her father that her life was unhappy and that she was tired of struggling all the time.
Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes, eggs and coffee beans in them. After 20 minutes, he took them out, putting the potatoes and eggs in a bowl and the coffee in a cup.
Turning to his daughter, he said, "Look closer, and touch the potatoes." She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to taste the coffee. Its good smell brought a smile to her face.
"Father, what does this mean?" she asked. He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and the coffee beans were in the same adversity(逆境)——the boiling water. However, each one reacted differently.
The strong and hard potato became soft and weak in boiling water. The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard. However, the coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new. "Which one do you want to be like," he asked. "When adversity knocks on your door, how will you respond?"
In life, challenges happen to us all, but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us.
If you have a chance to talk with a historical figure, who would you like it to be? What would you like to know about the past or share from today? China in the Classics, a new TV show based on Chinese classics started by China Central Television (CCTV) in February, is exploring such possibilities.
In the first episode (集), the host of the show, Sa Beining, meets ancient Confucian scholar Fu Sheng, who interpreted Shangshu — The Book of Documents. Regarded as one of the five classics of ancient Chinese Confucianism masterpieces, the book records many firsts in the country. Even the expression zhongguo (China) is used there first.
The episode ends with the host bringing Fu to today's modern society, where the scholar is happy to find children learning the same things he had learned in his childhood. It increased the rating of the series with viewers giving it 9 out of 10 on Douban, a film and TV show reviewing website popular among young people.
The success of China in the Classics doesn't surprise Shen Haixiong, head of the China Media Group. Shen said in an article in the journal Qiushi, "We are happy to see the program is popular among the public, but we are more proud to find that innovative interpretation of Chinese classics are arousing young people's interest in Chinese culture."
Therefore, TV channels have been making bold attempts in recent years to attract today's younger generations. The Nation's Greatest Treasures, CCTV's cultural show in 2017, showcased China's history and culture through antiques in the top-class museums, and fired up the audience. The treasures include the 3,300-year-old Yinxu Ruins in Henan Province and the 1,300-year-old Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet Autonomous Region.
CCTV should make a variety of programs showcasing classics and cultural traditions to appeal to the young generation's aesthetics (美学), said Zhou, a professor at the School of Arts and Communication, Beijing Normal University.
In Melbourne lies an 87-square-meter, three-story, two-bedroom and one-bathroom house. That may sound like a real property advertisement, but it could be the home of the future.
Made from organic materials and run on sustainable energy, the building, known as "The Greenhouse", is completely zero waste. It was designed by zero waste advocate Bakker, as part of his Future Food System housing experiment. "The greenhouse is inspired by nature — it's an ecosystem where nothing is wasted," Bakker says.
Organic waste is fed into a biodigester where it ferments (发酵) and turns into gas for cooking or fertilizer for produce; rainwater is harvested and used for irrigation and a specific system, where plants grow using waste from fish; and hot steam from the shower enables a wall of mushrooms to boost. The house is designed, says Bakker, with the roof as the foundation, loaded with 35 tons of soil, which provides fertile (肥沃的) ground for produce — more than 200 plant species grow on the roof, as well as insects, snails, fish and chickens.
The site is more than just a model home; it's been a real one for Jo Barrett and Matt Stone, who were chefs at the small in-house restaurant. "To be able to grow and produce food on a tiny footprint in the city and turn it into exciting dishes is completely unique," says Stone.
Through the project, Bakker wanted to demonstrate he could feed a family with his design. "I think we've proved that it's actually more productive than I imagined," he says. "We've harvested 35 kilos of potatoes from a square meter."
He hopes the example will offer a blueprint to future homes and an alternative to current food system, which is to blame for over a third of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. Creating a circular system could also greatly reduce food waste.
"We're the only species that generates waste. In nature, there is no waste; everything becomes a food source for something else," says Bakker. "If we transform to a circular system, we have so much potential to stop the destruction of wilderness and forest."
Romanticism in Poetry

The Shenzhou XIV mission—China's ninth manned spaceflight was launched successfully on Sunday morning from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the northwestern Gobi Desert.
three crew members – Senior Colonel Chen Dong, Senior Colonel Liu Yang and Senior Colonel Cai Xuzhe—will stay in the Tiangong space station for half a year.
Before them the Shenzhou XII and XIII three-member crews lived inside the Tiangong, is traveling in low-Earth orbit about 400 kilometers high.
In early May, the Tianzhou 4 cargo spacecraft was launched by a Long March 7 rocket from Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan province, (transport) nearly 6 metric tons of propellants and materials to Tiangong.
Tiangong consists of the Tianhe core module, the Tianzhou 3 and the Tianzhou 4.
In July, the station's first lab component—Wentian, or Quest for the Heavens – will be launched, while the second lab (name) Mengtian, or Dreaming of the Heavens, will be sent to dock with the station in October. After they are connected with the Tiangong, the station will form a T-shaped structure.
The Tiangong is expected (operate) for up to 15 years and will serve as a scientific platform, space officials have said, noting it will also be open to foreign astronauts.
