15、prehension (1) One busy day, I was racing around trying to get too much done, and I exclaimed to my three kids in the car, We can get both things done and kill two birds with one stone! My daughter Annie quietly suggested, You mean feed two birds with one crumb, Mom, dont you? I stopped short, reali

16、zing how steeped my language is in the culture of war. I had used weapon language without even knowing it. I was embarrassed and yet felt a grace: if a child can become conscious of using a new language of peace, then there is hope. Think about the business language: strategies, bullets, high-calibe

17、r, power point; about win-lose sports language like decimate, attack, destroy the other team, not to mention the movies and video games that simulate the most gruesome annihilations over and over. The lies of propaganda, one-sided media coverage, the alienation of others (those terrorists, the axis

18、of evil), all part of the collective psychic numbing of our times. The biggest lie of all is that nuclear weapons are going to protect us. Nuclear weapons are an assault on our life, our planet, and on the Creator of the universe. It seems to afflict what our people could be as a result of the mess

19、seeming too big to handle for the average person, disconnected and disempowered. When the world food programme for children equals 1/70th of the annual world military expense, we see what a crisis we are in. Yet it inspired hope with the life examples of Mohandas Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson M

20、andela, Mother Teresa, Oscar Romero and others. Each spiritual leader lived the maxim, no justice, no peace, nonviolently insisting on the truth, speaking truth to power without harming others or stripping their dignity. Imagine if we focused on this commonality, rather than what divides us; imagine

21、 if religions and religious leaders promulgated a global culture of peace and tolerance. We do not have to feel overwhelmed; that U. N. structures, NGO documents, UNESCO declarations, peoples ideas for education exist already, that the internet is a rich source of counterculture information, connect

22、edness and hope. Of what use is a vote or medical care in a war-torn society? A culture of war is like a house of cards; the house can fall and give rise, like the phoenix, to a new culture of peace. There are three fundamental ways to build a culture of peace: understand, participate, communicate.

27、r children D. a devotional Christian(2) There are some that would argue that hospitals are no place for dogs, while they are wrong. At least according to new research reported at the American Heart Associations Scientific Sessions 2005. For people hospitalized with advanced heart disease, it is bett

28、er to have visitors than to lie quietly alone. But one type of visitor seems to be especially beneficial, researchers reported on Tuesday. That visitor is a dog. In the first controlled study of the effects of pet therapy in a random sample of acute and critically ill heart patients, anxiety as meas

29、ured on a standard rating scale dropped 24 percent for those visited by a dog and a human volunteer, by 10 percent for those visited by a volunteer alone and not at all for those with no visitors. Similar results were found in measures of heart and lung function. The senior author of the Pet Therapy

30、 Study, Kathie M. Cole, said 76 patients with heart failure, a condition that affects an estimated five million Americans, were randomly assigned one of the three visit types. The dogs, from 12 breeds, were screened for behavior and disease before participating in the study. Some patients in the fir

31、st group, Ms. Cole said, began to smile and immediately engaged in conversation with dog and volunteer. Their worries seemed to vanish from their faces, she said. The researchers examined the patients three times: right before the 12-minute visit, eight minutes into it and four minutes after it was

32、over. Besides the anxiety measurement, researchers found, patients levels of epinephrine, a hormone the body makes when under stress, dropped 17 percent when visited by a person and a dog, and 2 percent when visited by only a person. Epinephrine levels rose an average of 7 percent in the unvisited g

33、roup in the study, which was financed by the Pet Care Trust Foundation, a nonprofit group. Pressure in the hearts top left chamber dropped 10 percent after a visit by volunteer and dog. The same pressure rose 3 percent for those visited by a volunteer and 5 percent for the unvisited group. Pressure

34、in the pulmonary artery dropped 5 percent during and after a visit by volunteer and dog, but rose in the other two groups. Ms. Cole recommended further studies to determine how long the benefits lasted. Dogs are a great comfort, she said. They make people happier, calmer and feel more loved. That is

40、onducted by an officially approved auctioneer. He asked the crowd to gather in the auction room to bid for various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called knocking down the goods, for the bidding ends wh

41、en the auctioneer bangs a small hammer on a raised platform. The ancient Romans probably invented sales by auction and the English word comes from the Latin autic, meaning increase. The Romans usually sold in this way the spoils taken in war; these sales were called sub hasta, meaning under the spea

42、r, a spear being stuck in the ground as a signal for a crowd to gather. In England in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries goods were often sold by the candle; a short candle was lit by the auctioneer and bids could be made while it was burning. Practically all goods can be sold by auction. Among

43、 these are coffee, skins, wool, tea, cocoa, furs, fruit, vegetables and wines. Auction sales are also usual for land and property, antique furniture, pictures, rare books, old china and works of art. The auction rooms at Chrities and Sothebys in London and New York are world famous. An auction is us

44、ually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by the buyers. If the advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of goods to be sold together, called a lot, is usually given a number. The auctionee

45、r need not begin with lot one and continue the numerical order; he may wait until he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots they are likely to be interested in. The auctioneers services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible
