The "Cross-Time and Space Dialogue" exhibition between Ningbo and Xi' an is the first domestic exhibition to showcase the combined cultural relics of the Silk Road, the Maritime Silk Road, and the   Grand Canal, all of are world heritage sites.

Zhang Liang, the director of Ningbo Museum, said, "the Ningbo Museum (seek) partnerships with cultural institutions for years to enable audiences of the Yangtze River Delta region to appreciate treasures at their doorstep. Xi' an is the starting point of the overland Silk Road Ningbo serves as a critical hub of the Maritime Silk Road. The two cities are (close) connected through canals."

"We wanted to create something rich and comprehensive, but that also meant setting ourselves enormous task," said Zhang.

Time constraints also added to the pressure. Each artifact had to be positioned, with adjustments made to ensure a cohesive narrative. These fine details required countless (round) of refinement.

Zhang emphasized that the purpose of showcasing history is not just (reflect) on the past but inspire the present and future. Recognizing the interests of young audiences, the exhibition integrates modern elements such as (interact) installations and LED displays.

Researchers conducted two experiments in the United States and a field study in South Korea to investigate the meanings employees associate with their dress. In the first experiment, participants viewed photos of different outfits (套装) and indicated what they thought each would convey in a "business-casual" office. In the second, participants first changed into business-casual clothing and then into new business-casual outfits they selected to correspond with one of three randomly assigned characteristics: aesthetics (美学), conformity (一致性).uniqueness. A control group was asked to select an outfit similar to their first one. All participants were told to imagine that they worked at a company where people could generally wear what they wanted to and where most choose business-casual dress. After each clothing change they reported on how they would feel going to work in what they had on, what they thought their clothing would convey, and their level of self-esteem (自尊).

The experiments showed that people associate clothing high in aesthetics with personal attractiveness conforming clothing with a sense belong, and unique clothing with distinctiveness. and revealed that each of the three qualities raised self-esteem.

The field study involved 84 white-col1ar employees who worked on-site and were free to choose their clothes They filled out three questionnaires daily for 10days, reporting on what they were wearing, their self-esteem, their interactions with colleagues and their productivity. Aesthetic and unique clothing boosted self-esteem, which in turn boosted progress toward job goals and decreased social avoidance. Dress conformity had similar effects, but only when employees frequently interacted with colleagues.

"Investing a little extra time in the morning to prepare an outfit that is aesthetically pleasing and unique-and, if interactions with others are expected, highly conforming to organizational standards—can have a meaningful impact on how an employee feels about themselves throughout the workday," the researchers write.

In a lively city, there was a small bookstore hidden between two tall buildings. It wasn't the most attractive place, but it had an undeniable charm. The owner, David, had inherited (继承) the store from his grandfather. Every day, he opened its creaky (吱嘎的) doors and greeted his customers with a smile, even though his heart was heavy.

David had been struggling with his business for months. Online stores had taken over the market, and fewer people walked into his store. He had always believed in the magic of physical books, but with bills piling up and his savings running low, he was beginning to lose hope.

One rainy afternoon, as David sat behind the counter, staring at the closed sign on the door, a young woman entered. Her name was Sophie, and she was new to the city. She had heard about the bookstore from a friend and decided to check it out.

Sophie wandered through the passages, running her fingers along the spines of the books. There was something warm and comforting about the place — despite its worn-out shelves and faded sign outside. After a while, she picked up a book on gardening — a topic she had recently become passionate about — and brought it to the counter. David greeted her, still burdened by his worries.

"You seem like you're really into gardening," he said softly.

Sophie smiled. "Yes, it's been such a peaceful escape for me lately."

David rang up the book and said, "I hope it helps you grow your garden. Plants are like people. They need care, but they can really bloom if you give them the right environment."

Before leaving with the book, Sophie turned to him. "There's something special about this place. I hope you keep it open for a long time."

David watched as she stepped out into the rain, her smile lingering (萦绕) in his mind. That night, for the first time in weeks, he didn't feel the heavy weight of worry. Instead, he thought about Sophie's words. Maybe it wasn't about making the store bigger or more popular. Maybe it was about creating an environment where people felt welcomed — and that was enough to keep going.

The China Wildlife Image and Video Competition, hosted by the Chinese National Geography, has long been event of great significance in the field of wildlife documentation. At an awards ceremony recently held in Beijing, 17 remarkable images and videos, which (select) from over 37,600 submissions globally, deeply attracted the audience.

The competition, (theme) "Spirituality of Mountains and Seas" this year, aims to enhance public awareness of wildlife and ecological conservation. Among the award-winning (entry), the work of Jia Haining's team on Oriental storks (东方白鹳) in the Yellow River Delta stood out (noticeable). Their delicate piece of art beautifully demonstrated the region's ecological harmony and species (diverse).

To film the dynamic moment the birds left their nests, they arrived at the filming site as early as 4:30 am. And they waited patiently for almost two months the young storks' first flight! The judges praised their work as a breathtaking symphony of life.

Additionally, special awards for mobile photography and social media engagement were introduced to encourage (broad) public participation. The competition, as Dr. Jane Goodall noted, has the power to inspire people, especially those who rarely have the opportunity to experience nature firsthand, (reconnect) with the natural world.

One day, while cleaning Arthur's room, Jean found an MP3 under his bed and her credit card under his pillow. The realization5 her that Arthur had used her card without6, which explained the7 $1,000 on her recent credit card bill. Realizing she had failed to teach him the value of money, Jean8 a plan.

On the first day of Arthur's summer break, Jean took Arthur to an old farm. She confronted (对质) him about the MP3, and Arthur9 using her card because all his friends had one. Jean proposed he work on the farm for two weeks to prove his10 to correct his mistakes.

Throughout his time there, Arthur encountered11 he had never faced before but carried on. The hard labor taught him the meaning of effort, sacrifice, and the true value of money. At the end of his work, Arthur approached Jean with a(n)12, acknowledging his error. Jean forgave him and shared her own story of making mistakes. She wasn't angry about how much money she lost, but was hurt by his13 in using her credit card without permission.

In our busy lives, we often pass up chances for joy. We might skip a birthday party or cancel a lunch date, thinking it's not worth the trouble. But this usually makes us feel even more down later. The secret to changing this is to strengthen"reward sensitivity".

Reward sensitivity is like a muscle. It can grow stronger with regular practice. When we train ourselves to notice and value positive emotions, we can become happier. They often struggle to feel pleasure, a condition called anhedonia (unable to experience joy). A 2023 study showed that therapy focusing on positive emotions helps mental health more than treatments just reducing negative symptoms.

A great way to strengthen reward sensitivity is to plan a small, fun activity daily. Describe it in detail, focusing on the feelings and experiences. This practice, known as"savoring (尽情享受)," makes positive feelings stronger and gives you more motivation to seek similar experiences in the future.

. Instead of simply labeling an experience"good", use more precise words like"thrilled,""inspired, or "peaceful". Sharing positive moments with others can make these moments even more meaningful, strengthening social bonds and spreading happiness.

It's important to remember that embracing happiness doesn't mean ignoring pain. By using these strategies in your daily life, you can cultivate a stronger sense of reward sensitivity and change how you experience and pursue happiness.

A. Afterward, take a moment to recall the experience.

B. It's the ability to find and truly enjoy positive experiences.

C. We often avoid such activities, which make our mood decline.

D. This is especially important for those with depression or anxiety.

E. This practice helps you better understand and enjoy positive feelings.

F. Despite life's challenges, feeling joy helps restore balance and toughness.

G. Beyond savoring, expanding your emotional vocabulary can also help.

Vast quantities of wind and solar capacity have been introduced across Europe in recent years, but these power sources are intermittent, generating electricity only when winds blow or the sky is cloudless.

Gas power plants, which can be switched on and off relatively easily, are frequently relied on to provide power when renewable generation is low. But gas is often the most expensive source of power, and electricity market rules mean the most expensive generator sets the price for the entire market.

Raúl Bajo-Buenestado at the University of Navarra and his colleagues found nations with more wind and solar in their power systems were more vulnerable (易受影响) to natural gas price shocks. Spain, for example, has large volumes of solar power and is particularly sensitive to power price changes. "If you have natural gas, wind and solar, this is going to make the perfect cocktail for you to be vulnerable," says Bajo-Buenestado.

It is the need for flexible generation alongside wind and solar that is the issue. Bajo-Buenestado points out that other nations with low-carbon power grids, such as Norway and France, rely on hydropower and nuclear technology, which are reliable generators. "We don't see a clear correlation between decarbonisation and sensitivity to natural gas price changes," he says.

Solving the problem will require nations to replace gas as the back-up fuel of choice. One answer is for grid operators to push the power system to become better able to absorb peaks and valleys in generation. "The underlying message is that getting a flexible system is now as important as building renewables," says Michael Grubb at University College London.
