They dont listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated

2、from medical school. I didnt realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and s

3、peak up for a good result, regardless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending (主治的) doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot. He was so busy becaus

4、e of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot and my boss so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, “We need to put the landing gear down now!” That was my first real lesson in the power

5、 of CRM, and Ive used it in operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesnt overreact, which might prevent fellow doctor from voicing opinions again. So when Im in the operatin

6、g room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes theyre not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landing gear up”.1.

9、eve it or not, that decision could make a world of difference in the rest of your day.About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up in the mornings, according to sleep researcher Till Roen. And while there are no official numbers on snoozing(打盹), a quick survey of social media makes it

10、 clear that hitting the snooze button is a popular pastime(消遣).As to how the snooze button will affect your day, scientists have mixed opinions. Some scientists think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever, creative and happy while some said that hitting the snooze butt

11、on will ruin your life, or at the very least your day. “I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human sleep,” researcher Jonathan Horowitz said. “The chances of you snoozing and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are close to zero.”Accor

12、ding to some sleep experts, when hitting the snooze button, you are in fact confusing your body and mind, and throwing yourself into a deep state of being sleepy. The body needs some time to wake up. Therefore, when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time, you are putting

13、your body back into a sleep mode before waking it again. At that point your body wont know what it wants, resulting in a sort of half awaken state.If you really want to take advantage of an alarm clock, the key is to form a healthy sleep cycle.

17、void the light sleep mode.CTurtles have a problem. They are delicious. And so are their eggs. That has led to the eggs of marine turtles being poached (偷猎).To deal with the problem Kim Williams-Guilln and Helen Pheasey of the University of Kent have come up with a handy gadget (小装置). It is a global-

18、positioning-system (GPS) transmitter (发射机) enclosed in a plastic shell made by 3D printing. The result looks like a turtles egg and weighs about the same.

19、Williams-Guilln and Dr Pheasey have now tested their invention in Costa Rica. They placed a decoy (诱饵) egg into each of 101 turtle nests on four beaches where poaching is a problem.

20、 of poachers the “egg” in question starts broadcasting its location once an hour.In all, 25 of the decoys were poached. They told different stories.

One, for example, was carried 137km inland, to a supermarket.To make sure that they, themselves, were not harming what they were intending to protect, the researchers monitored all of the decoy-loaded nests which had survived the attentions of poachers and compared these nests ou

22、tputs of hatchlings (刚孵化的幼龟) with those of 44 other surviving nests that had no decoy in them.
