>Nobel Prize in Literature
法作家獲諾貝爾文學獎
The Nobel Prize in Literature 2014 was awarded to the French author Patrick Modiano "for the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the occupation", the Swedish Academy said Thursday.
瑞典學院9日宣布,將2014年諾貝爾文學獎授予法國作家帕特里克·莫迪亞諾,以表彰他"憑借記憶的藝術,描繪了最難以捉摸的人類命運,再現了(德國)占領時期的真實生活"。
Modiano made his debut in 1968 as a writer with "La Place de L'étoile", a novel that attracted much attention. Modiano's works centre on topics such as memory, oblivion, identity and guilt. Often his tales are built on an autobiographical foundation, or on events that took place during the German occupation.
莫迪亞諾于1968年發表處女作《星形廣場》,這部小說在當時備受關注。其作品主題主要有:回憶、遺忘、身份和罪惡。他的作品大部分都是基于親身經歷,或是德國侵占時期的真實事件。
Modiano has published nearly 20 novels, of which the best known is probably "Rue des Boutiques Obscures" ("Missing Person"), which won the Prix Goncourt in 1978 and is about a detective who loses his memory and endeavors to find it. Together with the film director Louis Malle he made the Oscar-winning movie "Lacombe Lucien".
莫迪亞諾發表了近20部小說,其中最著名的可能是《暗店街》,該小說于1978年獲龔古爾文學獎,講述了一個失憶偵探努力找回記憶的故事。他與電影導演路易·馬勒合作的影片《拉孔布·呂西安》還曾獲得奧斯卡金像獎。

>Orange alert for smog
京污染預警升級為橙色
空氣重污染持續到周六
Officials in Beijing escalated the city's air pollution alert from yellow to orange Thursday, the first orange alert for air pollution issued in the city in the second half of the year, Beijing News reported. The extremely heavy smog is expected to envelop Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province for 2 more days until it is dispersed by a cold front on Saturday night. Based on the orange alert, residents in the area are advised to minimize outdoor activities while those with respiratory and cardiovascular illnesses, as well as the elderly, are asked to stay inside their homes.
據《新京報》報道,9日,北京市官方將全市重污染預警級別由黃色升級為橙色。這是今年下半年北京首個空氣重污染橙色預警。預計未來兩天京津冀地區將持續重度污染狀態。11日夜間受冷空氣影響,污染狀況將明顯改善。空氣重污染橙色預警意味著市民應盡量減少戶外活動,老人和呼吸道、心腦血管疾病患者等人群應盡量留在室內。
>'Putin's tiger' now in China
普京放生東北虎入中國
China is on the hunt for a Siberian tiger released into the wild by Russian President Vladimir Putin, xinhuanet.com reported, after the animal roamed across the border. Tagged with a tracking device, the tiger, named Kuzia, has been spotted in China's Taipinggou nature reserve in Heilongjiang. "A Russian expert called to tell us the location of the tiger and expressed the hope that we can protect it," nature reserve director Chen Zhigang said. The tiger should find plenty of food among the reserve's wildlife, Chen said, though officials were prepared to "release cattle" into the area to feed it.
據新華網報道,俄羅斯總統普京曾放生的一只東北虎近日越過中俄邊境跑到中國,中方正幫助尋找。這只東北虎名為"庫賈",裝在它身上的跟蹤器顯示它正處于中國黑龍江省的太平溝自然保護區。該保護區主任陳志剛說,"俄羅斯一位專家打來電話,告訴我們監測到的老虎位置,希望我們予以保護。"他表示,自然保護區野生動物多樣,老虎應該不用擔心食物問題。但如有必要,官方也準備考慮投放牛供其食用。
>Oxford science grads best paid
英牛津學電腦收入最高
Computer scientists from Oxford receive the most lucrative pay packets 6 months after graduating, £43,895 on average, according to The Sunday Times league table of graduate salaries in the UK. The figure is almost 4 times that of graduates in drama, dance and cinematics from Essex University, the lowest earners on just £11,963. Graduates in computer science from Imperial College London and Cambridge also feature in the top 10 for earnings. Science degrees are increasingly the path to higher earnings, the figures reveal, with engineering, medicine, veterinary science and dentistry all performing well. Arts subjects fare far less well.
《星期日泰晤士報》公布的英國畢業生薪資排名榜顯示,牛津大學的計算機系畢業生收入最高,畢業半年內的平均薪資達43895英鎊,而埃塞克斯大學戲劇、舞蹈、電影藝術專業畢業生的收入最低,僅為11963英鎊,差不多是第一名的1/4。倫敦帝國理工學院和劍橋大學的計算機系畢業生的收入也位列榜單前十。數據顯示,理科專業的收入前景越來越好,工程學、醫學、獸醫學和牙科學畢業生的收入也不錯,藝術類學科則相當慘淡。
>Phone charging warning
睡覺時手機充電易肥胖
Having a charging phone or tablet in your bedroom at night could do more than interrupt your sleep – it could also make you fat, researchers have warned, according to the Daily Mail of London. A team at the University of Granada in Spain discovered that the blue light emitted by the gadgets harms the production of the "sleep hormone" melatonin (褪黑激素) which helps balance of the body's metabolism (新陳代謝). Disrupting the metabolism can contribute to obesity and diabetes. Thus, experts advise banning charging gadgets when sleeping for a better sleep.
據英國《每日郵報》報道,研究者警告稱,晚間在臥室給手機或平板電腦充電不光會影響睡眠,還會使人發胖。西班牙格拉納達大學的研究小組近日發現,電子設備發出的藍光會妨礙人體內一種叫褪黑激素的"睡眠激素"的產生,后者有利于平衡人體的新陳代謝。而新陳代謝系統被擾亂后,肥胖和糖尿病等癥狀也會隨之而來。因此,專家建議為獲得更好的睡眠,勿邊睡覺邊充電。

>News reports shock macaque
猴子看報露震驚臉(圖)
An Indian Rhesus macaque seemed in danger of falling out of the tree when it saw the alarming stock market news, foreign media reported. While perched in a tree in the Lalbagh Botanical Gardens in southern India after lunch, the little Rhesus macaque appears to be devouring the news, which he takes in with varying degrees of alarm and contemplation. The comical photographs were captured by software engineer Bhavani Gucha. Gucha said visitors to the gardens often fed the monkeys fruit wrapped in newspaper, but he had never seen a monkey have such a "funny reaction" to the news.
據外媒報道,在印度南部拉巴克植物園,一只獼猴"讀"完最新股市新聞后,"嚇"得幾乎從樹上掉下來。這只獼猴進食后在樹上休息時,似乎在急切地閱讀新聞,時而驚恐萬狀,時而沉思不已。這些頗為滑稽的畫面被軟件工程師巴瓦尼·古查所捕捉到。他稱參觀該植物園的游客經常將水果包在報紙中喂猴子,但他從未看到猴子對新聞報紙做出這種有趣的反應。

Let's sleep on it!
咱們再考慮考慮!
[情景]喬陪米歇爾買東西,米歇爾猶猶豫豫不知該選什么好。
-----------------------------------------
M:Do you know if you are going to buy the leather set or the cashmere set?
你想好買那套真皮的還是羊絨的了嗎?
F:I've been thinking about it for three hours. I really can't decide.
我已經想了3小時了,真的決定不了。
M:Why don't you sleep on it?
你干嘛不再考慮考慮。
F:Ok, I'll think about it tomorrow.
好吧,我明天再想這事。
[口語點睛]
Sleep on it的意思是"推遲對某一個重要問題作出決定,以便有更多的時間來考慮"。這個說法可以追溯到英國的著名國王亨利八世。1519年亨利八世遇到了一個難題, 很難作出決定。歷史學家找到的一些官方文件記載這個國王講的話。他說:We should sleep and dream upon the matter。(對于這個問題我們應該再花點時間好好考慮。)我們再來舉個現代的例子:
Ann, honey, we don't have to decide right this minute. Let's just sleep on it. And after a good night's sleep, we can make up our minds and go buy it after work.
安,親愛的,我們不必現在馬上作出決定。我們再考慮一下,睡個好覺后再作出決定,下班以后再去買就行了。
