29、hey discovered that most occur when children hit an obstacle at a slow speed, causing them to topple over. To maintain their balance they turn the handlebars through 90 degrees but their momentum forces them into the end of the handlebars. The bike then falls over and the other end of the handlebars

38、e are, after all about 60 million of them, work with them, and get along with them very well. And finally its a pretty safe bet that youre open-minded and interested in all the various issues about smokers and nonsmokers or you wouldnt be reading this. And those three things make you incredibly impo

39、rtant today. Because they mean that yours is the voice not the smokers and not the anti-smokers that will determine how much of societys efforts should go into building walls that separate us and how much into the search for solutions that bring us together. For one tragic result of the emphasis on

40、building walls is the diversion of millions of dollars from scientific research on the causes and cures of diseases which, when all is said and done, still strike the nonsmoker as well as the smoker. One prominent health organization, to cite but a single instance, now spends 28 cents of every publi

41、cly contributed dollar on “education“ (much of it in and-smoking propaganda) and only 2 cents on research. There will always be some who want to build walls, who want to separate people from people, and up to a point, even these may serve society. The anti-smoking wall-builders have, to give them th

42、eir due, helped to make us all more keenly aware of choice. But our guess, and certainly our hope, is that you are among the far greatest number who know that walls are only temporary at best, and that over the long run, we can serve societys interest better by working together in mutual accommodati

47、 Germany When it comes to translating basic research into industrial success, few nations can match Germany. Since the 1940s, the nations vast industrial base has been fed with a constant stream of new ideas and expertise from science. And though German prosperity (繁荣 ) has faltered (衰退 ) over the p

48、ast decade because of the huge cost of unifying east and west as well as the global economic decline, it still has an enviable (令人羡慕 ) record for mining ideas into profit. Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society, a network of research institutes that exists solely to solve indu

49、strial problems and create sought-after technologies. But today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition.

These efforts are being complemented by the federal programs for pumping money into start-up companies. Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success, but it is not witho
