9、industry. Over the years, the crowds at Base Camp grew, leaving behind tons of trash. Whenever I was asked whether Id climbed Everest, my answer was always the same: not interested. Thats probably where my personal Everest story would have ended, were it not for an old friend and his obsession (念念不忘
10、)with one of the greatest mysteries. In 1999, Thom Pollard began to explore and found the remains of George Mallory, the celebrated British climber who disappeared while attempting to be the first to climb Everest. But Mallorys partner, Sandy Irvine - and the camera he had likely carried - were not
11、found. The mountain climbing world has been wondering whether they might have reached the top in 1924. Pollards story moved me. I began to pack for the climb and expected that our advanced equipment would make it manageable, perhaps easy. I was wrong. On the highest point on the planet, I was more t
12、ired than Id ever been in any climbing. Along the way, I continuously tipped my hat, not just to Mallory and Irvine but to anyone who has the drive to push himself or herself up this route.

13、ust self-centered tourists. We shared route information, weather forecasts, and family photos - all united around common goals. I went to Everest to seek Irvine.

17、tors that make one opinion long-lasting and another short-lived, however, are not always clear. Past studies have shown that opinions based on hard facts and data can remain constant over time, but new research published in the journal Psychological Science finds that opinions based on feelings and
18、emotions can also stand the test of time. As part of their study, the researchers asked more than 1,000 people to what degree they believed opinions based on feelings or emotional reactions were more stable over time than those based on thinking and reasoned analysis. Only 15% expressed any belief t
19、hat opinions based on emotion would be more stable over time. To test the role that emotion plays in forming long-lasting opinions, the researchers conducted seven independent studies involving more than 20,000 participants in various real-world situations. The first survey, which was conducted the
20、day after Christmas, measured feelings about recently received gifts. The participants were given a list of adjectives (形容词)to describe their opinions toward their gifts. Adjectives like worthwhile were associated with a practical reaction to the gift, while words like delightful were more strongly
21、associated with an emotional reaction. One month later, the participants completed a follow-up survey to test the endurance(持久性)oftheir opinions.The results showed that the stronger the positive emotional reaction, the more likely that opinion remained fixed one month later.

23、howed significantly less change in their opinions across time. Emotionality is an unrecognized predictor (预测因子)of long-lasting opinions, said Andrew Luttrell, a researcher at Ball State University.

29、isk can develop. For them, the commercial, reputational and financial risks that go with cyberspace presence are real and growing every day. So all businesses need to do now is establish cyber security within their organization, right? Establishing cyber security alone is not enough. Nowadays, it is
30、 not very difficult for attackers to break security and stop the overall business system. Preventive measures are not enough to stop them. With the advancement of technology, hackers (黑客)have been changing and developing. So business risk management should include risk resilience(复原力)so that busines
31、sescan respond to any damaging cyberspace activity. Cyber resilience helps businesses successfully recover to their pre-attack business processes and business operations.
