Most people remember their teachers as some kind of despotic（专制的） person although it isn`t always the truth．Most of them are quite nice and are always there to give us a hand when we need one, Not so long ago, you might think the teacher was “The Teacher” and was almighty（万能的） and the students were there to learn and nothing else．Now there is some kind of interactivity between the students and the teacher．To my mind, teachers are here to teach us their knowledge and to listen to what we have to say．Indeed, students aren`t afraid to tell them what they think any more．However, this doesn`t mean that they don`t control their troops．It is just because times and methods have changed．Our teachers are now closer to their students and have created some kind of soft climate that allows us to be in class without a feeling of obligation or what so ever．Nevertheless, we can but notice that the “power” is still in the teachers` hands．If something goes wrong it is up to him or her to react properly and to carry out punishment if it is necessary．

人物信息：
1.Lisa intends to go into studies on Humanities and Area Studies, and she is considering which specific question should be focused on．Rather than getting easy access to electronic texts, she would like to take a quick look at the new publications in the printed form first．
2.Ali is on a visit to the university．He has been invited to stay on campus for 2 weeks．At the library, he may need a place that can be locked up to keep his belongings．
3.Jack has finished his project on humanities．For several months he was seated in front of the computer screen writing his dissertation．Today he wants a change．A comfortable place with interesting novels, short stories, or even fairytales is most favorable．
4.Ann, with a Master’s degree in Social Sciences, is one of the currently registered doctoral students．Her supervisor has asked her to search for some information in the SUL/AIR's electronic library．This is an urgent task．
5.Nick is doing a research on the Middle East．He badly needs a wide range of datasets from the area．He also plans to store the data on CD-ROM so that he can use them later．
People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions--and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why．
Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly （均匀的） across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes．
"We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions," Jack said．"Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect （忽略） the mouth．"
According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed．As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations．
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of．expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral．They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies．
It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did．"The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions," Jack said．"Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less．"
In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion．From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion．Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation．

Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast．Diagnosed with diabetes（糖尿病）, Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin（胰岛素） three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness and even death．And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance．
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back．He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar．com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources．
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six．Father and son visit the online children's forums（论坛） together most evenings．"Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers．"They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone．"
Kody is anything but alone, Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases．And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages．
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses．Fight-it．org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash．In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean．
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables．"Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members．"But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now．"
