Until the beginning of July, there has been no rain in northern Italy for over 100 days. Add to that the high temperatures, and the locals get very dry conditions. This is the most serious dry spell(干旱期)for that area in the past 70 years. Because of this situation, the country's longest river, the Po, is drying up!
This is bad news for several different reasons. The fresh water of the Po provides drinking water for northern Italy. Besides, farmers in this area need the water of the Po to keep their crops growing. What's more, the flowing river water is used to create about half of the hydroelectric power(水力发电)for Italy. Its drying up means that more natural gas(天然气) will be used, which is bad for the environment.
There have been some interesting discoveries from this lack of rain, however. Between Florence and Milan, a long ship sunk (沉没)in 1943 appeared because of the low water levels of the river. Now many tourists and locals come to see this ship. A German tank has also appeared out of water near Mantua. At other places along the river, people can even walk on the sandy river bed. Although this may be interesting, people in Italy and around the world are hoping for the return of rain to refill the Po!

According to research in the magazine Psychology(心理) Health , people with sweet childhood will have less stress and fewer diseases. "We found that good memories seem to have a good effect on health, " said the researchers of the study. The researchers used more than 22, 000 people in two studies. The first period followed adults(成年人) in their mid-40s for 18 years. The second period followed adults aged 50 and over for 6 years. In both groups, people who got more love and support from their parents had less sadness. | Keeping away from depression(低落的情绪) has become the main goal for many people nowadays, but hugging it may be more helpful, a new study reports. Many people hide their true feelings. But the report says this can even make people worse. Researchers call on(呼吁) people to have a more friendly and patient attitude(态度) about depression. Only in this way will people not be afraid of it and they will be more likely(更有可能) to work out the problem, and then take action to deal with them. |
