《一个人待会儿，挺好》
网上，有这样一个精准击中成年人情绪的发问：为什么很多人开车回家，到楼下了还要在车里坐好久？
最多的回答是：“需要独处。”
很难说清成年人的生活中，一天之中有多少时间是完全属于自己的。我们的时间像一幅巨大的拼图，每一块拼图都被清晰地分配了任务：
在办公室里是效力的员工；在社交场合中，是应酬的一员；在家的屋檐下，是要尽责的成员……
当时间被精细地功能化之后，独处就像对机械运转的钟表按下了暂停键，给自己一个“换气”的出口。哪怕仅仅是在沙发上发一会呆、放空，都是有益身心健康的，它不一定产生直接价值，却能润物无声地修复心情，是生活里必要的布白。

Why we need to protect polar bears

Polar bears are being increasingly threatened by the effects of climate change, but their disappearance could have far-reaching consequences. They are uniquely adapted to the extreme conditions of the Arctic Circle, where temperatures can reach -40°C. One reason for this is that they have up to 11 centimetres of fat underneath their skin. Humans with comparative levels of adipose tissue would be considered obese and would be likely to suffer from diabetes and heart disease. Yet the polar bear experiences no such consequences.

A 2014 study by Shi Ping Liu and colleagues sheds light on this mystery. They compared the genetic structure of polar bears with that of their closest relatives from a warmer climate, the brown bears. This allowed them to determine the genes that have allowed polar bears to survive in one of the toughest environments on Earth. Liu and his colleagues found the polar bears had a gene known as APoB, which reduces levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) – a form of ‘bad’ cholesterol. In humans, mutations of this gene are associated with increased risk of heart disease. Polar bears may therefore be an important study model to understand heart disease in humans.
