Several days ago, a Beijing-based IT company fired about 400 people overnight. No one had expected the job cuts, which broke with traditional ways of letting go of workers in China. Moreover, what was special about this case was that the day before the 400 were fired, they all received from their boss a gift—the book “Who Moved My Cheese?”

The book—a bestseller in the US—is being used by men and women to deal with changes in their lives and work. Some large organizations, including Coca-Cola, Kodak and General Motors, ask their employees to read it in order to encourage them to be active towards changes.

Cheese is something related to everyone’s livelihood-Our jobs, the industries we work in, relationships and love as well.

With China’s official entry into the WTO, the whole nation will face up to more changes and challenges. So what we should do once this “cheese” on which we are so dependent is moved?

“Whatever challenges and changes we meet, we should face up to them bravely,” Jiang Hengwei, a civil servant said after reading the book.

Professor Zhang Yang in Renmin University of China agrees. “We should change our way of thinking. The coming competitive foreign companies and products provide us with great chances to learn from them and improve our own products to meet international standards and be more competitive.”

“With hard work and wisdom, we will create a much larger and better piece of cheese.” Zhang smiled confidently.

Puppy Food

A puppy (young dog) is a precious addition to any family. The excitement of bringing home a little furry friend will always live in our memories. Like all of us, though, your puppy must have adequate nutrition(营养) right from the start to make certain that it’ll have a long and healthy life.

1. You might ask yourself what is the best for your new pet with all of the different varieties on the market in all of their attractive packaging. Some dry food produced specially for puppies is the best for the development of their teeth. 2.

Contrary to the belief of many first-time puppy owners, it is not always the best idea to purchase food that is too high in calcium (钙), protein, and vitamin levels. 3. In addition, a high intake of calcium is associated with bone disease in large-breed dogs. If you have a “small-breed” puppy, you can buy that kind of food.

It is not a good idea to feed the food you eat to your puppy frequently, as your puppy may become selective about food. 4. Some people think that dog biscuits and other treats are fine, but they should not be a main part of puppy’s diet.

Young puppies should be fed three times a day. Each puppy is unique, however, so feeding them twice a day is acceptable. After ten to twelve weeks of age, feed your puppy twice per day. Allow your puppy to eat as much as he would like in fifteen minutes. 5. If you let your puppy eat too much or too often by keeping food accessible at all times, he may become overweight and have health problems as an adult. Like humans, your puppy will not enjoy the food any longer if it is there at all times.

A. Pick up the dish with the remaining food.

B. Proper food is a basic necessity for your puppies.

C. Remember to give your puppy the food he would like to have.

D. It can also cause an upset stomach due to an unbalanced diet.

E. A further benefit is that it is less expensive than the canned food.

F. One example is that extra helpings of nutrients do harm to digestive organs.

G. It’s good to provide the extra nutrients a puppy needs until he grows larger.

 

It’s difficult for doctors to help a person with a hurt brain. enough blood, the brain can live only 3 to 5 minutes. Usually doctors can’t fix the hurt such a short time.

Dr Robert White thinks he knows a of help. He thinks doctors should make the hurt brain to live for 30 minutes without blood. This gives the doctor time to do something for the brain. Dr White experimented his on fifteen monkeys. he taught them to do different jobs. Then he operated on them. He made the monkeys’ blood go a machine. When the brains’ was 10℃,he stopped the blood to the brain. After 30 minutes, he turned the blood back on. He the blood again. After their operations, the monkeys were almost before. They were healthy and busy. Each one could still do the job the doctor them.

Dr White’s idea works well on monkeys. He thinks it will work on . He thinks it will help with heart problems. A person die when his heart stops; doctors can it again. The problem comes: when the brain is without blood for about 5 minutes, it . If doctors start the heart again after 5 minutes, the person has body but a dead brain. Maybe in the future, doctors will Dr White’s idea. When the person’s heart stops, the doctor will cool the brain. They will have 30 minutes to start the heart again. Maybe there will be no the brain.

They can be seen more frequently than ever before on college campuses, wearing flannel(法兰绒) and thick?framed glasses while listening to music. One might find them playing unusual musical instruments, shopping at second?hand stores or expressing themselves in other unique ways.

They call themselves hipsters. Being “hip” used to mean following the latest fashion. But gradually the word has become a sign of “being cool, unique and unusual”.

Hipsters value independent thinking, progressive politics, an appreciation of creativity and intelligence. Hipsters take pains and pride in not being mainstream. However, their culture has become quite trendy. This irony(讽刺) is central to their culture and offers an interesting conflict.

“I do take things in the mainstream with a positive attitude,” says Ben Polson, a college student at Brown University. “But sometimes I also question what determines popularity, especially regarding music.” Polson represents many hipsters.

When less?known bands become popular, they often lose their former fan base in exchange for a new one. There is a famous hipster saying that goes, “I used to like that band before it got popular,” Polson quoted.

According to Polson, bands' music changes when they go mainstream. They become less experimental, doing things just to save popularity and fans. The original elements that we were drawn to slowly disappear for the sake of popularity.

Many young adults have started to view hipsters' outlook as cool and they are adopting hipsters' anti?mainstream culture mind to themselves. This has led to specialized brands, stores and music for the hipster consumers. But on the other hand, some such stores, including clothing labels Urban Outfitters and American Apparel, have gained mainstream popularity. This has seemingly made the anti?mainstream culture become weaker.

“A lot of people that are self?defined hipsters aren't really hipsters. They're just trying to act as hipsters to seem cooler,” says Amanda Leopold, a college student from Oberlin College, US. Although Leopold has many unusual tastes and seems quite individualist, she refuses to classify herself as a hipster.
