Obama Still Smokes in Secret
US President Barack Obama has just made life more difficult for cigarette makers. He has just signed a law that will set tough new rules for the tobacco industry. The new law gives the US Food and Drug Administration the power to strictly limit the making and marketing of tobacco products.
At a White House signing ceremony Monday, Obama said that he was among the nearly 90% of smokers who took up the habit before their 18 th birthday.
Obama, who has publicly struggled to give up smoking, said he still hadn’t completely kicked the habit. Every now and then he still smokes in secret.
“As a former smoker I struggle with it all the time. Do I still smoke sometimes? Yes. Am I a daily smoker, a constant smoker? No.” Obama said at a news conference.
“I don' t do it in front of my lads.I don ?t do it in front of my family.I would say that I am 95% cured, but there are times when I mess up, " he said.
"Once you go down this path, it' s something you continually struggle with, which is exactly why the law is so important.The new law is not about me, it' s about the next generation of kids coming up.What we don ' t want is kids going down that path," he said.
Nearly 20% of Americans smoke and tobacco use kills about 440,000 people a year in the United States due to cancer, heart disease, and other serious diseases.

Yousuf Karsh,the Canadian portrait artist who photographed many of the most influential figures of the 20th century,died in a Boston hospital on July l3 th,2002.He was 93.
??? Working from a studio in Ottawa,Karsh produced famous portraits of such subjects as Winston Churchill,John F.Kennedy,Ernest Hemingway and Albert Einstein.Actually he has become almost as famous as his legendary subjects.In the latest edition of Who’s Who,which listed the most notable people of the last century,Karsh was the only Canadian of the 100 famous people listed——51 0f whom Karsh had photographed.
??? As a master portraitist,often working in black and white.Karsh was famous for talking to his subjects as he was getting the shot’s composition just right,asking them questions and putting them at ease.In preparation,he read as much as he could about the sitters,but avoided having the idea beforehand of how he would photograph them.He sought, as he wrote in Karsh Portfolio in 1967,to capture the “essential element which has made them great,” explaining,“All I know is that within every mall a secret is hidden,and as a photographer, it is my task to reveal it if I can.”
Karsh was born in America in 1908,and his uncle,George Nakash,brought him to John Garo,all outstanding photographer,to teach him in 1928.Four years later,Karsh set up his own studio in Ottawa.
In December of 1941,his memorable portrait of Winston Churchill brought Karsh into international fame.Canada’s Prime Minister Mackenzie King arranged for him to photograph Churchill following Churchill’s speech in the House of Commons.Not told,Churchill lit up a cigar, “Why was I not told of this?’’ Karsh asked him to remove the cigar and,when he didn’t,stepped forward and gently removed it with the comment,“Forgive me,Sir.”Churchill glowered (怒目而視) as the shot was taken,then permitted Karsh to take still another,;jokingly commenting,“You can even make a roaring lion stand still to be photographed.” The Churchill portrait has since appeared in publications all over the world.
??? Karsh traveled to London in 1943 with his portable studio —— an 8-by-10 view camera and many studio lamps to photograph such notables as George Bernard Shaw and the royal family.All these portraits fully illustrate Karsh’s ability.

Over three million people will do their Christmas shopping entirely online this year without once visiting an actual shop, a poll (民意調(diào)查) has found. Overcrowding and long queues in shops are forcing people away from the high street as the hassle (煩擾) of Christmas shopping becomes too much.
The number of people turning their backs on the high street is almost one million higher than it was last year, according to the poll by YouGov. Last Christmas 2.4 million shoppers did not do any of their shopping in actual shops. The figure this year is predicted to be around 3.4 million, equal to around 7 percent of the adult population.
Over a third of people said that the main turn-off about shopping on the high street is 0ver-crow-ding. Meanwhile almost a quarter said that long queues at the cheek-out are the worst thing about it.
Of the 2.065 people pored, even those who are stir taking to the shops plan to spend less time in them this Christmas. Around 31 percent of shoppers who plan to spend at least some time on the high street will spend less than half of their shopping time in actual shops, using the rest of the time to shop remotely via the internet. This compares to 28 percent of people last year. Meanwhile the proportion of people spending over half of their shopping time in high street shops has dropped from 41 percent last year to 39 percent this year. Just 2 percent of people said that they are looking forward to dealing wi.th store staff this festival season.
Guy Boxall, senior product marketing manager at Casio Business Solutions Division, which commissioned the research from YouGov, said that despite the fall in people visiting the high street,humans are "social creatures" who actually like spending time together.
"Although the high street is facing a big challenge Christmas, retailers (零售商) should see this research as a challenge to improve the in-store shopping experience, rather than the nail in the coffin. We are social creatures, and the desire to spend time with each other, particularly at Christmas, is never going to go away," said Mr. Boxall.

Learning inside the museum
Museums have an important role in providing learning services to users,especially school
children.Some learning services will provide a range of formal teaching opportunities in the
museum;others will work closely with school teachers so that these teachers can make better use
of the learning resources available through displays and exhibitions,databases,handling
collections and museum staff.
In an ideal world,every museum would have at least one learning or education specialist.He
or she would be a trained teacher who also had a good understanding of museums and museum
collections,and a strong feeling to help people-especially children-use and learn from them.
A museum education specialist is of great value. For most museums the establishment of
such a post should be high priority. He or she is the only member of staff with training in the
psychology of learning,and has considerable experience of analyzing complex concepts and-
presenting them in a simple way to a non-specialist audience. The education. specialist is,indeed,
the only professional interpreter in the museum.
It is clearly reasonable,therefore,for the museum to make full use of the education
specialist's skills,and to involve him or her in all aspects of interpretation and the planning of
new displays and exhibitions.Museum learning is not just about teaching children,though
children may be its principal audience.
Many small museums tray not be able to employ an education specialist of their own.For
them,there are other possibilities. One is that the local Schools Service may be able to lend a
teacher to the museum,perhaps for two or three years,ivho could be trained to apply teaching
skills to the museum context: Another is that suitable volunteers may be available in the
community-perhaps retired teacher:,or teachers not presently working-who may be willing to
give some of their time to the museum. Another possibility is sponsorship:a large company
might be willing to finance tl-to appointawnt 4 an education、pecialist for a few. years.
An important part of thu= work for the edUcatiOri specialist in a museum is to establish strong
links with its local schools.He or she is a communicator who has responsibility for keeping
contact with the teachers at local schools. He of she should make sure that the schools know
what is going on at th:nusezim arid how they can make use of it,and that the museum staff
know about developnww:in the school!瓵bove 4.11,it is their responsibility to find out what
schools want,and to en、ure that the museum does its best to meet those requirements.There
needs to be a continuing dialogue between teachers and museum:the museum needs to know
what the teachers are teaching;teachers need to learn how the museum could help,and what
resources they could use.
The look of wonder on a child's face can be the reward for a lifetime's work in museums.
The aims of museum learning are to establish contact between people-whether children or
adults-and objects;and not to teach facts,but to sow(播)a seed of interest,a spark(火花)of
inspiration.
