There are so many different ways in which we can have a positive influence through the work we do. So keep reading if you want to learn more about these ways.
Family Social Worker
A family social worker role allows you to work directly with young people and families who are going through challenging situations. It's a job that presents great variety and gives you the opportunity to help people repair damaged situations and relationship breakdowns, supporting everyone involved in the way that's best for them moving forward.
Defense Lawyer
If you have a legal background or it's something you're interested in, entering the field of defense law and helping people who are in need of affordable representation might be the career you're looking for. Lots of people suffer from a lack of adequate legal representation and there are ethical (道德的) lawyers out there who aim to fill that gap for them and provide them with the legal advice and representation they require.
Consultant or Youth Worker
Consulting or youth work is an important field of work, and you can get started on that career path with a degree in consulting. These career paths involve guiding and helping young people who are in need of direct support, and it requires a sympathetic nature and the ability to communicate very well. It's certainly an important and worthwhile line of work to enter.
Dietician or Nutritionist
If you're someone who's interested in health and food, you combine those interests with your desire to help people and pursue a career as a dietician or nutritionist. More and more people are turning to these kinds of specialists in order to live healthier and longer lives. It's a branch of healthcare that's becoming more important and more in demand.
During my time at the estate agency, we saw sales figures fall and the management team were starting to become annoyed. Our sales and office manager was dealing with a team of around seven senior estate agency sales people that were seemingly down on their luck.
Only one of them was still making sales and he seemed to have a charm and golden touch that surpasses luck or market forces. Things became very bad and every day we complained about the sales leads we were given. They were from people that had already been surveyed so many times that they were tired and regretted making an enquiry.
After a while, things became so bad that the senior management team sent down an executive from another office. This was a man that was doing very well and didn't complain about poor leads or bad market conditions. He told us that the company had purchased a new batch of untapped leads that could be made into sales, but he told us we were not getting them.
The senior executive they sent told us that we had to make a sale over the next week or we were all fired. They were looking to replace the staff because the ones on the team at the moment were lame ducks. They also started a scoring system. The person that earned the most during the week got a brand-new car; the second most got a new set of steak knives. If you failed to make a sale you were fired.
After a lot of phone calls, I finally got an appointment with a couple that had been approached a few times. I was told that they just like to talk to sales agents, but I was not going to let that stop me. I went around their house and talked to them until past two in the morning. At this point, I was holding out a pen and waiting for them to sign. After around twenty minutes of silence, they took the pen and signed, therefore agreeing to purchase six units within an apartment complex.
Finally I made my own luck, although not motivated in an appropriate and fair manner.
In Chinese cities, people in yellow or blue suits riding e-bikes are easy to see. They rush between traffic from restaurants to homes and businesses, regardless of wind or rain. They are food deliverymen. Although they make our life more convenient, this can come at a cost for them.
"The food deliverymen are trapped in the app," says an article in the Chinese magazine Portrait, which has triggered a discussion. It pointed out that on food delivery service platforms Eleme and Meituan, the time limit and route for each delivery order is calculated by an algorithm (算法), which doesn't consider real-life situations such as red lights, speed limits and fully occupied elevators.
Based on the algorithm, the deadline for a delivery order within 2 kilometers is 30 minutes. Within that time, a deliveryman has to pick up the order and deliver it to the customer. Besides, the time limit has been gradually shortened in recent years. Delay could mean a reduce in pay so deliverymen speed up, often breaking traffic rules and putting people's lives at risk.
Many people criticized the platforms and asked them to improve the regulations applied to the deliverymen. In response, on Sept 9, Eleme announced it would add a button to the app, which allows customers to prolong the time limit for their order, and encouraged customers to show more respect for deliverymen. But this created more heated debate, as some felt the company was dodgingthe problem and distracting attention.
They commented that the move was illogical, as the deliverymen are following rules made by their employers, and problems should be solved between the two. They felt the company was putting the responsibility on the users rather than solving the problem themselves. Also, even with the ability to allow more time for delivery, it may not fully address the issue. "If I give them five more minutes, they would not use it to ride slowly or obey the traffic rules. They would simply take one more order. This is not the ultimate cure to solve the problem. "
Actually it would be better to improve the platform's system and the delivery mechanism. Besides, market regulatory departments should prohibit companies from setting tight schedules for their deliverymen and keep them safe on the roads.
As palaeontologists can tell, Neanderthals (尼安德特人)died out around 40,000 years ago. But they did not vanish from the Earth entirely. In the past decade it has become clear that Neanderthals mated with the ancestors of modem humans, and that some of those unions produced offspring (generations to follow). The result is that almost half of the Neanderthal genome survives, spread in small quantities among most modem people's DNA. The exception is those with mostly African ancestors, for Neanderthals seem never to have lived in Africa.
Such genes have been associated with everything from hairiness to fatness. Many seem to be related to the immune system, and to affect the risk of developing diseases including lupus, Crohn's disease and diabetes.
A pair of recent papers suggest Covid-19 belongs on that list as well. Two long DNA strings, both inherited from Neanderthals, appear to have resistance or sensibility to severe Covid-19, depending on which is present.
The work was led by Hugo Zeberg and Svante Paabo at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, whose researchers pioneered the study of Neanderthal DNA.
Their first paper, published in Nature in September, described one Neanderthal DNA string, known as a "haplotype" (单体型), which is associated with a higher risk of serious illness.
Having one copy of the haplotype, which is found on the third of the 46 chromosomes possessed by humans, doubles the chances of a trip to intensive care. Those unlucky enough to possess two copies, one from each parent, face an even higher risk.
That genetic bad luck is not evenly distributed. It is most common among people of South Asia, with 63 per cent of the population of Bangladesh carrying at least one copy; and among Europeans, where the rate is around 16 per cent. As expected, it is almost absent from Africa. More strikingly, it is also very rare in Eastern Asia.
Exactly what the haplotype does is not clear. One gene within it affects a protein that interacts with the cellular receptors (细胞受体)that SARS-CoV-2 (the virus which causes Covid-19) uses to enter cells and control them.
The haplotype is also thought to be involved in the production of signalling proteins, called cytokines, which help to regulate the immune system. An overly aggressive immune response is one mechanism by which Covid-19 kills.
Making the Most of the Present
We've all been asked that question "Where do you see yourself in 5 or 10 years?" and while some of us might have the answers to that, the reality is, most of us don't and that is totally OK.
We've put together the below tips on how to enjoy living in the moment.
Stop worrying about what hasn't happened yet. We've all done it. Worrying about a situation that hasn't happened yet is only going to ruin all the good things that are happening now. If you focus on the future too much, it makes the present irrelevant. If it is really eating you up, try thinking about what you can do right now to avoid any negative situations you might be worried about.
It is so easy to get caught up in other people's lives and compare your achievements to theirs, so if you find yourself doubting your achievements and feeling less than someone because they have a nicer car or a better job, take a step away from them for a while until you no longer feel negatively about the differences in your lives and achievements. Better mood, better life.
Put yourself first and stop trying to please everyone else. And looking after yourself before anyone else is the most important. Work towards the goals you want to achieve, not the ones others want you to achieve or the ones you think you should be achieving because society tells us too. If you don't want to get married, that's OK, and if you do, that's OK too.
A. No one is better than you.
B. You are your own number one.
C. Just make sure that anything you do, is done for you!
D. Stop being influenced by popular and influential people.
E. Surround yourself with people that make you feel better.
F. What will be, will be and stressing about something isn't going to change that.
G. Thinking ahead is important but it can often be the cause of unnecessary stress.
My mother-in-law tells me she's coming over, so I lock the front door. My four-year-old twins stand with their hands and feces pressed 1 the window. Their excited breath 2 up the glass. I need to keep them 3- or they won't be able to 4 hugging their grandmother without being controlled.
As she gets closer, they see her holding a large 5 in her gloved hands and a box piled with cakes. She puts them down on the porch (门廊) as the boys 6 their drawings for her to see through the door. Her bright eyes can be seen, and you just know she's 7 under her N95.
We are 8 to have dinner brought to us tonight. A pandemic (疫情)really calls for a big dish. Carol is the kind of person who 9 to care for her loved ones while in the middle of deep personal 10 . In January, Carol lost her husband of 50 years. Meanwhile, she feels his 11 every day in their apartment, alone. But she tells me she still feels connected to him when she 12 .
I find myself thinking about Carol alone in her kitchen, preparing food. I 13 her standing over the counter, opening the soup cans, washing the vegetables, cutting them up, and dividing them into four separate dishes for the families of her four 14 . How can she 15 such uncertain times without 16 the comfort of being surrounded by the people who love her?
From Carol I've learned that sorrow is love and love is 17 and none of them stops just because we are all 18, by social distancing or more. We still 19 and we still love and we still eat. This is what I want to tell my boys when they ask where their grandpa has gone, and
20 their grandma is standing so far away. However, I give them cakes. And as they take off the heart paper outside, I tell them, "Grandma made those specially for you."
(Date) back 250 million years, Himalayan sea salt is a type of rock salt that is
(nature) pink in color. It is mined from the Punjab region of Pakistan. It (consider) a valuable spice since ancient times and many people believe that Himalayan Pink Salt is the purest salt on earth.
The Himalayan people first used this salt as a preservative helped to keep their fish and meat from spoiling for long periods of time. Today, this salt is often referred to as "white gold" in Himalayas.
Pink salt is used the same way table salt would be used in cooking and baking. Himalayan Pink Salt is higher in mineral content than traditional table salt. It is considered a true splendid cooking salt by top (chef). It also adds an interesting pink color and different texture foods which can bring something special to your cuisine. But when you use it, keep in mind that because Himalayan sea salt has a (salt) flavor than table salt, you should use less salt per serving (achieve) the same flavor.

Even to this day, I still remember the very moment when I waved my ping-pong paddle at the first time. At the end of primary school, I original intended to take up this sport to kill time during my boring summer holiday. Never could I imagine that it would end up my favorite in my life.
As my ping-pong skills improved with practice, and I soon found that no one wanted to play with me anymore. Later, my coach introduced me to a sports center for the elderly organized by the certain university. It was pretty strange being the youngest boy played with a crowd of old people. But the gap in ages faded as soon as I lifted our paddles and put our focus on the tiny ball. The experience made me realize that what I have learned by then was like a drop in the ocean. This made me enthusiastic to practise even much.
