At school they met a wise man who led them to a treasure a library of old books with tales more fascinating than any they had ever heard. 1 (inspire), the brothers began collecting their ow
3、n stories, listening to the folktales people told them. Soon they produced their own treasure a book of fairy tales that would charm millions in faraway lands for generations 2 (come).The brothers Grimm, Jacob and Wilhelm, named their story collection Childrens and Household Tales and published it i
4、n Germany in 1812. The collection 3 (translate) into more than 160 languages up to now. The stories and their characters continue to feature in virtually every media: theatre, opera, comic books, movies, paintings, rock music, advertising and fashion.Such fame would have shocked the modest Grimms. D
5、uring their lifetimes the collection 4 (sell) few copies in Germany. The early editions were not even aimed at children. They had no illustrations, and scholarly footnotes took up almost as much space as the tales 5 . Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm began their work at a time 6 Germany had been occupied by
6、the French under Napoleon. The new rulers restricted local culture. As young scholars, the brothers Grimm began to work on the fairy tale collection in order to save the endangered oral storytelling tradition of Germany. 7 the brothers implied that they were just keeping records of tales, Wilhelm co
7、ntinued to polish and reshape the stories up to the final edition of 1857. In an effort to make them more acceptable to children and their parents, he stressed the moral of each tale and emphasized gender roles. To this day, parents still read them to their children because they approve of the lesso
8、ns in the stories: keep your promises, dont talk to strangers, work hard, obey your parents.Yet 8 all Wilhelms additions, the most important part of these stories was left untouched. The cruel treatment of children and the violent punishments handed out to the stories bad guys are too much for some
9、parents.So what accounts for their popularity? Some have suggested that it is 9 the characters are always striving for happiness. But the truth probably lies in their origin. Grimms tales were born out of a storytelling tradition without boundaries (界限) of age or culture. The brothers skill was to t
10、ranslate these into a universal style of writing that seems to mirror 10 moods or interests we bring to our reading of them.

26、any people experience problems with their spine(脊椎) as they age. The tissue that protects the joints in the spine gradually breaks down. As a consequence, the bones, in the spine begin to rub against each other. This further harms that issue as well as the bones. The result is pain in the joints and
27、, sometimes, in nerves near the spineThis painful problem is actually a disease called osteoporosis. Some people are more at risk of osteoporosis because of genes that they inherited from their ancestors. Extremely heavy people are also more likely to suffer from this disease because their extra wei

41、rotect the environmentCgain corporate benefitDhelp communities in needBy the end of the century, if not sooner, the worlds oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物) called phytoplankton.
42、 Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reduci
43、ng it in other spots, leading to changes in the oceans appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global
44、 climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the oceans warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MITs Center for Global C
45、hange Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3, it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But
46、in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing. ” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton
47、 are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significa
