12、ould find and sit down to a good meal? It has been my observation that these activities can be the best type of therapy for a troubled mind. It is crucial for humans to find some solitude in life. They must find some time to let the universe go spinning on without others interruption . The portion o

16、社會交往和個人追求之間保持一種健康的平衡，這是一種挑戰(zhàn)。孤獨的靈感是一種主要的商品，不僅是詩人和哲學家，但對于普通人來說。一個健康的成年人需要“獨處的時間” ，時間來反思對他們真正重要的是什么。當你獨.自一人，你可以舒展你的靈魂，直到它填滿整個房間，用你的自由，以你自己的速度移動。然而，重要的是保持理性。別忘了，為了能成為別人生活中的一部分，你必須自己保持健康。-I have read The History and Geography of Human Genes byLuca Cavalli-Sforza but still have some questions.

This is especially true in an age when races are mixing and the peoples of this planet are attempting to learn to live together.我讀過盧卡卡瓦利 -斯福扎和人類基因地理的歷史， 但仍有一些問題。盡管這些發(fā)現(xiàn)似乎證明了種族在遺傳上的本質(zhì)是平等的，但也有不同的解釋。這是第一次先進的

21、自然選擇理論的達爾文。 他的想法是， 某些特性， 有助于物種生存的選擇，這一物種的后代。 物種不自覺地為遺傳偏好做出選擇。 相反，通過存活更長和更富有成效的，該物種的成員的首選基因逐漸成為優(yōu)勢品種。作為一個物種，我們可以在一個地方開始我們的存在，但這是很久很久以前的一個地方了。氣候和其他生存必需品等因素已經(jīng)創(chuàng)造了進化的需要。我相信這些因素促成了不同屬性的種族進化。這就解釋了亞洲人接受更好的科學和數(shù)學成績的現(xiàn)象。這也揭示了為什么有這么多的優(yōu)秀運動員來自非洲。我明白這是一個特別有爭議的聲明。這是特別真實的，在一個種族混合的時代，這個星球的人民正試圖學習生活在一起。Unit8-To look at

Lets not let our knowledge and experience go to waste. present看我，你永遠不會猜我是在我的六十年代末。 大多數(shù)人懷疑。我只是微笑著說： “一位女士從未透露她的年齡， ”這是一個很好的理由，為什么一位女士不在我們社會中老年婦女被忽視。如果沒有其他公司的公司，我們
