3、ns “gin”. Many English speakers would recognize “gin”,but far fewer would recognize “diddle”. If a million words is the absolute upper level, how does that compare with the general vocabulary of most English speakers?4Most English-speaking adults know between 20,000 and 30,000 words. And in addition
4、 to those many thousands of words, theyre probably able to comprehend a good 20,000 more just from context clues. 5You wont find a single dictionary that includes anywhere close to the total million words.

In many remote places, even if doctors have microscopes and other instruments to help them make diagnoses, there may still be
16、 other problems. Many doctors, for example, dont have enough training to correctly interpret what they see.3With Ozcans mobile phone app, health workers can take a special photo of a blood sample and send it to a central computer at a hospital. The computer will then automatically interpret the phot
17、o and send a diagnosis back in a few minutes. 4His technology only requires a mobile phone and an Internet connection. As more than four billion people already have cell phones, the cost of establishing the diagnostic system is fairly low. By inventing a medical tool that uses existing technologymob

23、th is that we cannot recycle our way out of this mess.

28、at the more protected a bird feels when sleeping, the more likely it is to sleep deeper. Sleeping together in large numbers is another way many birds use. By sleeping together, there are more birds to notice predators(捕食者).3In winter, many birds roost together in limited spaces to share body heat an
29、d survive lower night-time temperatures. When birds sleep, they protect vulnerable(易受伤害的) body parts by burying themselves in their feathers.4By tucking(收拢) feet or the bill into the feathers, less body heat is lost. When a birds bill is buried deeply in its feathers, it is also able to breathe air
30、warmed by its own body heat. There is little data available about how long birds sleep once. 5Some birds are not able to involve in other activities without enough light, and sleeping is the next natural item on their to-do lists.

35、n thinks of you. 3 Practice daily self-love and acceptance. Your situation may come from a concept that we are not as worthy as another person and our needs are not as important as theirs. Recognize you are equal to every other person. 4 We all have different roles but that does not make anyone more
