Theo các nhà nghiên cứu, những người không muốn ngủ có nguy cơ mắc bệnh đau tim gấp đôi nguy cơ đau tim bình thường . Các nhà khoa học cho biết thức giấc thường xuyên vào ban đêm được xem như một lời cảnh báo về sức khoẻ không lành mạnh trong tương lai. Nghiên cứu gần đấy cho thấy rằng 13.000 người là những người phải vật lộn để ngủ vào ban đêm là 99% có nguy cơ bị đau tim hoặc đau thắt ngực nghiêm trọng. Những người mất hơn nửa giờ để ngủ hoặc ngủ ít hơn sáu giờ đồng hồ cũng có nguy cơ gia tăng bệnh . Nghiên cứu của Nhật Bản đã không xác định được lý do tại sao lại có một mối liên hệ mạnh mẽ giữa giấc ngủ và sức khoẻ của trái tim. Nhưng các nhà khoa học cho biết, hành động thức tỉnh liên tục có thể gây ra tình trạng "kích hoạt quá mức" trong hệ thần kinh, làm tăng nhịp tim và huyết áp, gây thêm căng thẳng lên tim. Ngủ kém cũng có thể là triệu chứng của tình trạng sức khoẻ kém, có nghĩa là những người có vấn đề về tim ít có khả năng ngủ ngon giấc. Cuộc nghiên cứu cho thấy những người phải mất hơn nửa giờ để ngủ có nguy cơ đau tim tăng 52% và 48% nguy cơ cơ thể bị đột quỵ tăng cao. Và những người có ít hơn sáu giờ để ngủ một đêm là 24 % nhiều khả năng bị đau tim.
The little chefs Hilary Rose travels to Dorset, in the south of England, to investigate a cookery course for children. There must be something in the air in Dorset, because the last place you’d expect to fi nd children during the summer holidays is in the kitchen. Yet in a farmhouse, deep in the English countryside, that’s exactly where they are – on a cookery course designed especially for children. It’s all the idea of Anna Wilson, who wants to educate young children about cooking and eating in a healthy way. ‘I’m very keen to plant the idea in their heads that food doesn’t grow on supermarket shelves,’ she explains. ‘The course is all about making food fun and enjoyable.’ She thinks that eight is the perfect age to start teaching children to cook, because at that age they are always hungry. 9() These children are certainly all smiles as they arrive at the country farmhouse. Three girls and four boys aged from ten to thirteen make up the group. They are immediately given a tour of what will be ‘home’ for the next 48 hours. 10 But one thing is quite clear – they all have a genuine interest in food and learning how to cook. Anna has worked as a chef in all sorts of situations and has even cooked for the crew of a racing yacht, in limited space and diffi cult weather conditions. 11 ‘Kids are easy to teach,’ she insists, ‘because they’re naturally curious and if you treat them like adults they listen to you.’ Back in the kitchen, Anna is giving the introductory talk, including advice on keeping hands clean, and being careful around hot ovens. 12 Judging by the eager looks on their young faces as they watch Anna’s demonstration, they are just keen to start cooking. The children learn the simplest way, by watching and then doing it themselves. They gather round as Anna chops an onion for the fi rst evening meal. Then the boys compete with each other to chop their onions as fast as possible, while the girls work carefully, concentrating on being neat. 13 When they learn to make bread, the girls knead the dough with their hands competently, while the boys punch it into the board, cheerfully hitting the table with their fi sts. The following morning, four boys with dark shadows under their eyes stumble into the kitchen at 8.30 a.m. to learn how to make breakfast (sausages and eggs, and fruit drinks made with yoghurt and honey). We learn later that they didn’t stop talking until 4.30 a.m. 14 Ignoring this, Anna brightly continues trying to persuade everyone that fruit drinks are just as interesting as sausages and eggs. Anna has great plans for the courses and is reluctant to lower her standards in any way, even though her students are so young. 15 ‘And I like to keep the course fees down,’ Anna adds, ‘because if the children enjoy it and go on to teach their own children to cook, I feel it’s worth it.’ If this course doesn’t inspire them to cook, nothing will.
A This is followed by a session on ‘knife skills’, which will be important later on. T
B She always uses top- quality ingredients, such as the best cuts of meat and the fi nest cheeses, so there’s clearly no profi t motive in this operation.FC As they wander round, they argue lightheartedly about who has had the most experience in the kitchen.T
D In the garden, they learn about the herbs that they will use in their cooking.T
E Their obvious tiredness may explain why one of them goes about the task so carelessly that the ingredients end up on the fl oor.F
F This is particularly true of young boys, who are happy to do anything that will end in a meal T
G As a result, she has a very relaxed attitude to cooking, constantly encouraging the children and never talking down to them.F
H This contrast will become something of a theme during the course.F
Communication in general is process of sending and receiving messages that enables humans to share knowledge, attitudes, and skills. Although we usually identify communication with speech, communication is composed of two dimensions - verbal and nonverbal.
Nonverbal communication has been defined as communication without words. It includes apparent behaviors such as facial expressions, eyes, touching, tone of voice, as well as less obvious messages such as dress, posture and spatial distance between two or more people.
Activity or inactivity, words or silence all have message value: they influence others and these others, in turn, respond to these communications and thus they are communicating.
Commonly, nonverbal communication is learned shortly after birth and practiced and refined throughout a person's lifetime. Children first learn nonverbal expressions by watching and imitating, much as they learn verbal skills.
Young children know far more than they can verbalize and are generally more adept at reading nonverbal cues than adults are because of their limited verbal skills and their recent reliance on the nonverbal to communicate. As children develop verbal skills, nonverbal channels of communication do' not cease to exist although become entwined in the total communication process.

Hàng triệu sinh viên nói tiếng Anh không tham dự lớp học ở Cameroon
Hàng triệu học sinh không tham dự các lớp học ở các vùng nói tiếng Anh của Cameroon khi trường học bắt đầu gần đây. Các trường học mở cửa sau khi chính phủ phát hành nhiều nhà lãnh đạo bị bắt giam trong các khu vực nói tiếng Anh của Cameroon. Các cuộc biểu tình được kêu gọi để hướng sự chú ý vào những gì mà một số người coi là ảnh hưởng mạnh mẽ của tiếng Pháp trong nước. Cameroon có hai ngôn ngữ chính thức: tiếng Pháp và tiếng Anh. Nhiều người nói tiếng Anh tin rằng họ bị phân biệt đối xử bởi những người nói tiếng Pháp.
Các trường học đã bị đóng cửa ở vùng tây bắc và tây nam nói tiếng Anh của Cameroon kể từ tháng 11. Đó là khi các luật sư và giáo viên kêu gọi đình công để ngăn chặn những gì họ tin là việc sử dụng quá mức tiếng Pháp. Sau khi các nhà lãnh đạo đình công bị bắt, các nhóm áp lực yêu cầu họ phải ra đi ngay trước kỳ học mới. Tuần trước, 55 trong số 75 người biểu tình đã được thả ra, trong khi những cáo buộc chống lại họ đã bị loại.
