The 【8】, Shinji Aoba, aged 41, remained in the hospital after 【9】 burns all over his body. A woman who saw police detain the man a day earlier told reporters that he "seemed to be discontented, he seemed to get angry, shouting something about how he had been plagiarized, " according to Reuters.

Hideaki Hatta, a co-founder and president of Kyoto Animation, said Thursday that the studio had been receiving 【10】, including emails threatening murder. He said the attack had "broken our hearts."

Most people assume that life in the rat race is bad for your health.But reversing the traditional gender roles is a stressful 【1】, according to the latest research by American scientists. By giving up their jobs in order to become house husbands, men 【2】their risk of heart attacks by as much as 82%, according to research based on a 10-year study of 2,500 people in Boston, USA.

According to Dr Eaker, the key to the problem is that some man became 【3】 about performing a role not 【4】 assigned to them by society. Men who stay at home tend not to have the same levels of support from fiends and family as women who do the same. Jack O’Sullivan, of the Father’s Direct group, was quoted as saying: “Society expects the main carer to be a woman, and society is 【5】 around that. Daycare is called mother and toddle groups and some men feel 【6】 about belong to those groups.”

Professor Gary Cooper, a psychologist at the University of Manchester, said many men tend to 【7】 the task of caring for a family. He said:“Most men think being a house husband involves putting on a bit of washing , taking the kids to school and then putting their feet up with a cup of coffee. They are crazy. Most men are not used to performing a 【8】of activities at the same time-the kind of multi-tasking which is second 【9】 to most of women.”

It is estimated that men have taken over the main homemaker’s role in one seven homes, as increasing numbers of women become the main breadwinner. The study also found that women in high-powered jobs were more likely to develop heart disease than those in more 【10】 positions.

Health Workers Aim to Save Lives of Mothers, Babies with Smartphone Data

A new project in India and Uganda is aimed at helping health workers save the lives of mothers and babies with information from electronic devices.

The $100 million project is 【1】 by the Rockefeller Foundation, the World Health Organization, UNICEF, the World Bank and other groups. Officials plan to 【2】 the project to a total of 10 countries. The goal is to 【3】 the premature deaths of 6 million women and children by 2030.

Raj Shah is president of the Rockefeller Foundation, which leads the project. The group is providing $60 million of the $100 million 【4】 cost. Shah said the plan is to give health workers low-cost tools to help them gather the information they need to help communities and families most at risk.

The project will provide 【5】 such as real-time risk maps to help health workers reach mothers and children. Workers also will be able to study non-health data on climate or social media patterns to predict and prepare for local disease 【6】 or health emergencies.

Shah told Reuters, "A few years ago, these community health workers had no real technology ... today the vast majority of them have smartphones with data and software technologies in their hands --- and with those, we can help them do their work better."

A U.N. report published last week 【7】 that more women and newborn babies survive now than ever before. But the report said that a baby or a 【8】 woman still dies every 11 seconds somewhere in the world.

Deaths of mothers are nearly 50 times higher for women in sub-Saharan Africa than in 【9】 countries. The report also found that babies in Sub-Saharan Africa are 10 times more 【10】 to die in their first month of life.

How sound and colour influence the taste of food

The sound people hear while they are eating food can change the way they think it tastes, scientists have discovered. In fact, researchers have also found that changing the colour of a food can influence the flavour 【1】 by consumers. Food manufacturers are now hoping to 【2】 the findings in an attempt to make their foods more appealing.

It was 【3】 thought that the sense of taste and smell were the only human senses that played a role in experiencing flavour. Professor Charles Spence, a sensory psychologist at Oxford University, is a leading expert in his field. He believes that it is possible to change the flavor of food simply by exciting people’s sense of hearing. For example, listening to waves hitting the sea shore can make 【4】 detect seafood flavours.

Professor Spence has also discovered that 【5】 changing the colour of a food can influence the way it tastes. He found that by changing a drink from yellow to a deep red, it is possible to make it taste up to 12 per cent sweeter than it really is. He said: ‘This colour has strong 【6】 with very ripe fruit.’

Flavour is not just as simple as the way something tastes, as all the other senses come into 【7】 and some can dominate the way the brain will 【8】 a food. Ice cream activates a part of the brain which is just behind the eyes and is where emotions are 【9】. By melting, it changes its physical 【10】 and creates contrasts that continually keep your senses interested.

So next time you are in a restaurant or a supermarket, or just sitting down at home to eat something, think about whether your choices have been influenced by sound or colour. You may be surprised!

With the development of modem technology, there are plenty ways for us to contact people. One of our most favorite ways is probably WeChat. The main reason may be because it is very convenient to use with the popularity of the smart phone. We can contact friends whenever it is but wherever we are. We like using WeChat also because it is very cheap. It costs only a little and is even free unless Wi-Fi is available. Another advantage lies in the speed with which messages get sent and received. It’s so fast that we can get in touch with others instantly. More importantly, using WeChat, we can give friends not only very exact written informations but also very moving greeting words, that we might not say face to face. Besides, music as well as pictures and videos are often uploaded through WeChat, so it is now a useful entertainment tool.

In a word, using WeChat is a good choice for you to keep in contact with friends.

Go hi-tech this holiday

If you’ve been searching for a reason to pick up that latest gadget, then what better time than Christmas? There’s no shortage of innovative, forward-thinking and futuristic products on the market today, as technology takes center stage on many people’s festive wish lists. Here, we offer a festive gadget(小玩意)【1】 that will help you take a closer look at three of tech’s hottest categories.

Virtual reality

VR

Probably the most exciting tech development of recent times, virtual reality (VR) has arrived, with enough options 【2】 to the consumer who’s searching for an extra dose of high-tech fun this Christmas. The cheapest way to get a high-end VR experience comes courtesy of Sony. Its PlayStation VR doesn’t require a tricked-out PC or expensive phone - it works with the Playstation 4 console and comes with a few great games in its library. There are some accessories you can purchase to 【3】 the experience, but if you’ve already got a PS4 you can enter the world of VR for just $400 (2780 yuan). 2016 has been the year of VR and as such many 【4】 to Sony’s creation exist. High-end offerings like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, as well as mobile options like Samsung’s Gear VR, will get your head in the game.

Wireless headphones

【5】 ease of use with the ability to move freely around your home, gym or workplace, wireless headphones just make sense. And there are plenty of viable(可行的) options to 【6】 any budget. The Bose QuietComfort 35 wireless headphones are definitely worth a test drive, though. The full-size, around-ear Bluetooth headphones 【7】 active noise cancellation and double as a headset for making phone calls. They’ve even earned the Editor’s Choice award at Cnet.com and can be snapped up for less than $400 online. Beats has worked its way firmly into the market and its Studio Wireless headphones are a popular choice, especially as you can now find them much cheaper than their 【8】 $379 asking price by searching around online.

Digital cameras

While your phone is a worthy sidekick, there’s no 【9】 for a real camera when it comes to taking the perfect picture. And these days you can get quality specifications in a package that’s almost as small as your smartphone. The sleek design of the Fujifilm X70, $699 (4,850 yuan), makes it the perfect companion, or you could go retro with the Olympus PEN-F ($1,200) that offers old school looks alongside cutting edge technology. Domestically, it’s worth checking out Xiaomi’s mirrorless Yi M1 for a more 【10】 option. With a high-end 20-megapixel sensor and the ability to host multiple lenses, it’s available from just 2,199 yuan.

The view that the spirit of adventure no longer has any scope for its enterprise seems, at first glance, depressingly true. The highest mountains have been scaled; the deepest seas plumbed. Maps today no longer contain huge blanks marked "Unknown Territory", nor do they make random guesses at the shapes of 【1】 land-masses. All major journeys of exploration to 【2】 the true shape and nature of the globe have been made in the past. It was left to us to fill in the details with 【3】 which once would have been considered impossible. The gaps have been 【4】. What next?

The obvious answer, of course, is that man is now looking upwards into space. Discoveries are being made at such a tremendous rate that even authors of science-fiction are finding it difficult to keep up with them and have to tax their imagination to invent bigger and better space-craft. Satellites sending signals as they swing round our globe have become 【5】.

Astronauts have successfully landed on the moon and its entire surface has been photographed. The information that satellites may provide fueling stations for manned rockets no longer strikes us as preposterous. If thirty years ago, a scientist has urged that we send messages into outer space in the hope of receiving an answer, he would have been regarded as either irresponsible or mad. Now, anything seems 【6】.

From dreams like these, we return to earth with a bump. Trips into space are all very well, but they are not for us; we must 【7】 ourselves with our own, much-traveled world. The earth itself is the training-ground for adventurous spirits, for "adventure" need not mean the seeking out of something new. A person can be called adventurous when he finds out something for himself, and it does not matter how many times the discovery has been made before. No one would say that men who set out now to cross the forbidding Antarctic are less enterprising than their predecessors who tried to do the same thing. The little boy who climbs the small hill that 【8】 his town, or even he who tries to climbs and fails, has precisely the same spirit that led Hillary to climb Everest. For the bold spirit and inquiring mind, there are inexhaustible possibilities. So long as there are people willing to 【9】 places that are well-known, there will be those who will, one day, set foot on remote and 【10】 shores.
