She brought help and happiness to a society in many ways that was having a difficult time due

24、n? If you said somewhere in the middle, you answered the same as the roughly 50 percent of people who have done this exercise in a number line study. But the answer is actually much closer to one thousand since there are one thousand millions in one billion.This error makes sense because “our human
25、brains are pretty bad at comprehending large numbers,” says Elizabeth Toomarian, an educational neuroscientist at Stanford University. Our brain is built to understand how much of something is in its environment. But comprehending the national debt or imagining the size of our universe? “We certainl
26、y can use our brains in that way, but were recycling these sorts of evolutionarily (进化地) old brain architectures to do something really new,” she says. In other words, its not our fault that we have trouble wrapping our heads around big numbers.So what can we do about the struggle to understand big
27、numbers? It is suggested to use metaphors, analogies (类比) and visualizations. These techniques bring big numbers down to a more comprehensible scale (比例) and ideally make it relevant to something in our daily lives. For example, it may be difficult for most people to accurately place the extinction
28、of the dinosaurs on a timeline between the Big Bang and humans because the first two both seem to be placed to the distant path. But when conceptualizing (概念化) these events using a “calendar”, it becomes easier. The Big Bang occurred at 12 a.m. on January 1st on the calendar. Dinosaurs were only pre
29、sent for roughly the last week of the year. And humans only emerged in the last eight sends December 31st, at 12:59:52 p.m. Its clear now that dinosaurs are much closer to humans than the Big Bang on a timeline.These metaphors and analogies are important if people are to really weigh the costs and b

34、r diagnosis and treatment. The discovery, made by researchers at the Shanghai Institute of Immunity and Infection under the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Fudan University, was published in Cell on Tuesday.Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in the human body.

They revealed that neutrophils can adopt at least 10 highly specialized and distinct functional states related to i
36、nflammation (炎症) , blood vessel formation andmost excitinglypresenting antigens (抗体) to activate powerful cancer-killing T cells.“We were surprised to find such complexity and different roles within neutrophils, which have been ignored for so long,” said Zhang Xiaoming, a researcher at the Institute

In addition, the abundance of antigen-presenting neutrophils is associated with improved condition across many cancer types revealed in this study,” he said.“This
38、 completely changes how we perceive neutrophils in the context of cancer,” said Gao Qiang, a professor at Fudan University. “Now we know we could employ the diverse hidden identities of neutrophils to strengthen the effectiveness of immunotherapy (免疫疗法). Were thrilled to further explore the potentia
