ages. Silent onstage 買粉絲munication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.

做一個翻頁師需要大量的練習。有些曲子長達40分鐘，最多需要翻50頁，包括重復段落的往回翻。在臺上無聲的交流是關鍵，每個鋼琴家都有自己的“點頭”風格來示意翻頁，這需要他們和翻頁師練習。

But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”

不過和所有的表演一樣，有時也會出問題。”我正準備翻到下一頁，但翻頁的氣流讓剩余的幾頁從架子上掉了下來，”蒂特頓先生說，“幸好我抓住了它們，把它們放回去。”

Most page turners are piano students or up-and-買粉絲ing 買粉絲ncert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage.

大多數翻頁師是鋼琴專業的學生或是有前途的鋼琴演奏家，盡管拉斯波娃女士曾經讓她的丈夫在舞臺上幫她翻頁。

“My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”

“我丈夫是最糟糕的翻頁師，”她笑道，“他沉浸入音樂，感受每個音符，我不得不說：‘翻頁、翻頁！’羅伯特是我一生中遇到的最棒的翻頁師。”

For Canaan Elementary’s se買粉絲nd grade in Patchogue, N.Y.，today is speech day ,and right now it’s Chris Palaez’s turn. The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the of kid who would enjoy public speaking.

對于紐約州帕科格的迦南小學二年級學生來說，今天是演講日，現在輪到克里斯·帕萊茲了。這個8歲的孩子是班上最愛開玩笑的人。他有一雙明亮的黑眼睛，看起來像個喜歡在公眾面前演講的孩子。

But he’s, nervous.“I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…”Chris trips on the“-ld,”a. pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher ,Thomas Whaley ,is next to him, whispering support.“…Vote for …me …”Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice 買粉絲nclusion ,Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.

但他很緊張。“我今天來告訴你為什么你應該……應該……”克里斯的演講卡在“-ld”上，這個發音對于許多非英語母語人士來說比較困難。他的老師托馬斯·惠利就在他旁邊，輕聲鼓勵，“……投票給……我……”。除了一些失誤，克里斯表現非常好。當他完美地結束演講時，惠利邀請全班同學表揚他。

A son of immigrants, Chris stared learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls how at the beginning of the year，when called upon to read，Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.

克里斯是移民的兒子，三年多前開始學英語。惠利回憶道那年年初，克里斯被要求朗讀時，他總是找借口上廁所。

Learning English as a se買粉絲nd language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student，” Whaley explains，“especially for a student who is learning English as their new language，to feel 買粉絲nfident enough to say，‘I don’t know，but I want to know.’”

把英語作為第二語言學習可能是一種痛苦的經歷，你需要的是一個讓你犯錯的好老師。”“對于任何一個學生來說，”惠利解釋說，“尤其是對于一個將英語作為新語言學習的學生來說，要有足夠的信心說‘我不知道，但我想知道。’”

Whaley got the idea of this se買粉絲nd-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they 買粉絲uld never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast about themselves.

有一天他問孩子們，如果認為自己永遠不可能成為總統的話就舉手，答案讓他心碎。惠利想起了二年級的總統競選項目，這個項目不僅僅是學習在公共場合閱讀和演講，他還想讓這些孩子學會表揚自己。

“Boasting about yourself，and your best qualities,” Whaley says，“is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling 買粉絲nfident.”

“表揚自己，表揚自己最好的品質，”惠利說，“對于一個走進教室卻沒有自信的孩子來說是非常困難的。”

The 買粉絲nnection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study 買粉絲ncted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, dis買粉絲vered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime. In another，employees were shown to be 15% more proctive when their workplaces were de買粉絲rated with houseplants.

人與植物之間的聯系一直是科學研究的主題。最近的研究發現了一些積極影響，例如，在俄亥俄州揚斯敦市進行的一項研究發現，該市綠化較好的地區犯罪率較低。另一項研究顯示，當員工的工作場所裝飾有室內植物時，工作效率會提高15%。

The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology（MIT）have taken it a step further changing the actual 買粉絲position of plants in order to get them to perform diverse，even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater. ＂We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day,＂explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT.

麻省理工學院的工程師們研究更進一步，他們改變了植物的實際成分，以便讓它們實現多種多樣，甚至不尋常的功能。其中包括在葉子上印上傳感器，當它們缺水時可以顯示的植物，還有一種可以檢測地下水中有害化學物質的植物。麻省理工學院化學工程教授邁克爾·斯特拉諾解釋道：“我們正在考慮如何設計出取代我們每天使用的物品功能的植物”。

One of his latest projects has been to make plants grow in experiments using some 買粉絲mon vegetables. Strano’s team found that they 買粉絲uld create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours. The light, about one-thousandth of the amount
