憋不出来ESSAY，比便秘还难受

深海lavenderUID: 2350207

我还没开始写ESSAY......
但是我想我的ESSAY应该不难完成,感触实在太多了.关键就是如何表达出来的问题.至于学校欣不欣赏就不是我的事了.她觉得我适合她就录,不适合也无所谓,这种学校进了也不会开心.

多少要跟major有点关系吧

我寄给penn的就是，想进wharton，结果写的piano，十分无奈

深海lavenderUID: 2350207

干吗一定要和MAJOR有关系.
我不准备写和MAJOR有任何关系的,也不想写活动什么的东西,只写我想写的,写我心里感触最深的事.做最真实的我自己.你爱录取我录取我,不爱录取我也不稀罕,总有学校欣赏我的.更何况我选的都是觉得风格和我比较接近的学校.而不是只根据排名选校.

Babies Can Tell Gallant From Goofus

The ability to tell friend from foe could mean the difference between life and death—particularly if you’re the hero in a spy thriller. Of course, being a good judge of character also comes in handy in real life, when you have to, say, purchase a used car. Still,it may surprise you to learn that even six-month-old babies can spot a villain.

Researchers at Yale University have found that infants can evaluate individuals on the basis of their action toward others. The results appear in the November 22nd issue of Nature. In their setup, six- and ten-month olds watched as wooden shapes with googlie eyes interacted on a board in front of them. One shape, a red circle, would try to make it up a hill. Then a different shape, a yellow triangle or a blue square,would come along and either bump the circle to the top, or shove it back down.

After a series of viewings, the babies were asked which shape they’d like to play with, the triangle or the square. In the case of the six-month-olds, every baby reached for the shape that was shown helping the circle rather than hindering it. (For some reason two of the older babies preferred the jerk.) Still, that’s pretty impressive villain-spotting, considering none of the shapes was wearing a black hat or had a handlebar mustache.

What Really Happens During Laser Surgery

Many people would rather not think about what’s happening to their flesh during laser surgery. And until recently, scientists assumed it wasn’t much different from what happens to water, since living things are mainly water.

But a new study of pulsed ultraviolet lasers finds that living tissue actually helps the lasers cut more effectively. These lasers are used in many eye and brain surgeries. they generate plasma with each pulse. When the pulse ends, the plasma collapses and explodes,splitting molecules in the tissue.

Using fruit fly embryos, scientists from Vanderbilt University found that this plasma forms more easily in living tissue than in water.  So lasers for some surgeries can be less powerful and less damaging than thought. The researchers also found that living tissue stretches during the plasma explosions.  This stretching makes the laser incisions smaller and more precise.  These results appear in physical review letters.

So while you may be mainly water, it’s the parts of you that aren’t that mean the most under the laser.
