The Pronunciation of "ing"

生命之河里的石头
所有父母都会伤害孩子，谁都没法避免。孩子就像洁净的玻璃杯，拿过它的人会在上面留下手印。
父母很少会对他们的孩子放手，所以孩子就对父母放手。他们向前走，他们向远处走。
那些曾经让他们感到自身价值的东西——母亲的赞同，父亲的点头——都已经被他们取得的成绩替代。
直到很久以后，当他们的皮肤变得松弛了，心脏变得衰弱了，他们才会明白：他们的故事和他们所有的成就，都是基于父母的经历建立起来的，就像生命之河里的石头，层层叠叠。

People often ask: What’s the difference between ‘I saw it’ and ‘I have seen it’?
They both sound like the same thing—but actually, they’re not! Let’s break it down."

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.
