5．Concussions（脑震荡） are brain injuries that occur when a person receives a blow to the head，face，or neck．Although most people may feel dizzy，sick and sleepy at first，these symptoms often disappear after a few days．The long-term effects of concussions，however，are less understood and far more severe．Recent studies suggest that people who suffer multiple concussions are at a significant risk for developing chronic traumatic encephalopathy （CTE），a brain disorder that causes a variety of dangerous mental and emotional problems to arise weeks，months，or even years after the initial injury．These psychological problems can include depression，anxiety，memory loss，inability to concentrate，and physical aggression．The majority of people who develop these problems are athletes who participate in popular high-impact sports，especially football．Although both new sports regulations and improvements in helmet technology can help protect players，the media and fans alike bear some of the responsibility for reducing the incidence of these destructive injuries．
Improvements in diagnostic technology have provided a lot of evidence to link severe-and often fatal-psychological disorders to the head injuries players receive on the field．In response to the growing understanding of this danger，the National Football League （NFL） has revised its safety regulations．Players who have suffered a head injury on the field must give a"concussion sideline assessment"-a series of mental and physical fitness tests-before being allowed back to the game．In an effort to reduce the amount of head and neck injuries on the field，NFL officials have begun enforcing stricter penalty calls for helmet-to-helmet contact，leading with the head，and hitting a defenseless player．Furthermore，as of 2010，if a player's helmet is accidentally pulled off his head during a game，the ball is immediately whistled dead．There is hope that these new regulations，coupled with advances in helmet design，will reduce the number of concussions players suffer，thus controlling the number of CTE cases．
Efforts by the NFL and other professional sports leagues are certainly praiseworthy； indeed，we should commend every attempt to protect the mental and physical health of players．However，new regulations at the professional level cannot protect amateur players，especially young people．With appropriate equipment and form，tackling （擒抱） need not be dangerous．Proper tackling form-using the arms and shoulders to aim for a player's midsection（中间部分） rather than leading with the top of the head-should be taught at an early age．Youth，high school，and college leagues should also adopt safety rules even stricter than the NFL's．Furthermore，at an early age，athletes should be educated about the serious dangers of head injuries．
Perhaps the most important factor in reducing the number of brain injuries，however，lies not with the players，the coaches，or the administrators，but with the media and fans．Sports media producers have been used to showing the most aggressive tackles and the most intense plays．NFL broadcasts often replay especially violent collisions，while the commentators admire the physical ability of the players involved．Some sports programs even feature the countdowns of the hardest hit．When the media focuses on such dangerous behavior，professionals are rewarded for injuring each other on the field，and amateurs become more likely to try to imitate their favorite NFL athlete．Announcers，commentator，television producers，and sportswriters should engage in a collective effort to stop glorifying violent plays．In turn，fans should stop expecting their favorite players to put their lives online for the purposes of entertainment．Players must stop being encouraged to trade their careers，health，happiness，and their lives for the sake of a game．

4．Bangkok（曼谷），Thailand，is known for having some of the best street food in the world．But officials have announced plans to ban food vendors（摊贩）in an effort to clean up the city．An assistant to Bangkok's governor told The Nation newspaper the move is meant to improve the appearance，walkability and safety of city streets．
"The street vendors have seized the pavement space for too long and we already provide them space to sell food and other products legally in the market，"the assistant said．"So there will be no let-up in this operation-every street vendor will have to move out．"
Bangkok was recently named the world's finest street food location for the second year by Cable News Network （CNN）．
Vendors can be found in all of Bangkok's busiest areas．They serve everyone from business people to tourists to local citizens．The chairs and tables are basic．Customers have to deal with Bangkok's extreme heat and polluted air while they eat．But the tasty food keeps people coming back again and again．
Nont Nontskiul is a financial worker in Bangkok．He lives in a part of the city where street vendors will be some of the first to be removed．He told the Associated Press that，"Even people who eat at pricey restaurants every day can't avoid street food．It's faster，tastes better，and costs less than half the price．"
Critics of the street food clean-up campaign say low-income people-including food vendors and their customers-will be most affected by the ban．They have called on the government to do more to help the vendors keep their businesses going in a legal way．
Ubolwattana Mingkwan is a coffee vendor in Bangkok．She charges 85cents for a cup of coffee．She says she cannot afford the cost of rent required to do business in a government-approved area．"I've asked city officials for help and understanding，"she told the Associated Press，"All they say now is"no，no，no．"They've already received their orders．"
