Ron DeSantis this week signed a law that bans local governments from carrying orders against homeowners from raising veggi
15、es in their yards.The law, which takes effect July 1, puts an end to that particular power of towns and cities across the state to prohibit vegetable gardens for “aesthetic（审美的）purposes”.The issue became a cause after a couple living in Miami Shores Village opposed the decision of a $ 50 a day fine
16、for growing vegetables in their front yard, as theyd done for years.Hermine Ricketts and her husband Tom Carroll fought City Hall in a case that wound its way up the states court system, with judges consistently ruling against their money-saving and health-conscious project.After the Florida Supreme
17、 Court ruled in favor of Miami Shores right to control design and landscaping standards, the couple replaced their vegetables with pink flamingos (红鹳花) .Their cause was not lost, however.

22、, he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his characters turned out to be because hes color-blind. Now, a new smart phone application can help him figure out what colors hes using and how the picture looks to others. The DanKam app, available for iPhone and Android for $2.99, is an a
23、pplication that makes the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees more like the true colors as everyone else sees them. In America, around 32 million color-blind Americans-95% are males-can soon have their life improved.DanKam takes the stream of data coming in thro
24、ugh the phones camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see, developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET. He came up with the idea after watching the film Star Trek with a color-blind friend. It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness l
25、ike its varying types and degrees. A vast majority, for instance, have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(缺陷). Blue-yellow colorblindness, however, is rarer and develops later in life because of aging, illness or head injuries, etc. What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up
26、the color space of the image signal so that colors can be seen to those suffering from viewing problems. “You can customize the app to fit your needs. There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same.” Says Kaminsky.Sparkman, a copy editor at CNET, tried out the app and was
27、pleased with the results. It would be useful for dressing for a job interview, he said. But using it for his art is “the most practical application.

31、enjoying a beach holiday in a five-star hotel were once signs of having “made it”. But a new study suggested that having people think of you as constantly occupied and overworked is now a far better way to demonstrate social position. According to Harvard University in the US, people are increasingl
32、y leaning toward the phenomenon of “humblebragging”. This is when people make a seemingly modest statement that actually draws attention to something they want to show off. Phrases such as “I have no life” and “I desperately need a holiday” are now used to imply social standing, while ordering food
33、and shopping online is the perfect way to prove to neighbors that you are simply too busy and important to go to the supermarket.“Movies, magazines, and popular TV shows often highlight the abundance of money and leisure time among the wealthy,” said Neeru Paharia, an assistant professor at Harvard
34、University. “In recent years, featuring wealthy people relaxing by the pool, playing tennis or skiing and hunting are being substituted with advertisements featuring busy individuals who work long hours and have very limited leisure time,” he said. “Displaying a lack of leisure time operates as a vi
35、sible signal of status in the eyes of others.”The researchers pointed out that the Wall Street Journals 2016 advertising campaign featured celebrities complaining about their busy lives, with the slogan (标语), “People who dont have time, make time to read the Wall Street Journal.”The report, which wa
36、s published in the Journal of Consumer Research, also found that brands that marketed themselves as time saving were becoming increasingly high-status, because of their users. According to the authors, this trend of humblebragging is due to peoples shift of focus they now value “the preciousness and
37、 scarcity of individuals” more than “the preciousness and scarcity of goods”. “Busy individuals possess desirable characteristics, leading them to be viewed as in demand,” the authors concluded.32. Which of the following statements can count as “humblebragging”?A. “Just ate 15 pieces of chocolate. G
38、otta control myself flying first class or theyll cancel my modeling contract!”B. “Everybody check this baby out-we just bought a castle! I mean literally!”C. “Guys, Im screwed. I Ive missed the final deadline for my essay again and my tutor is going to fail me!”D. “Wow, I cant believe a rubbishy art

The first thing they do is reinforce(强化) the behavior that they want repeated - in this case, to get the whale to go over the rope. 37 , in
43、a position where the whale cant help but do whats expected of it. Every time the whale goes over the rope, its given positive reinforcement and gets fed with fish. But what happened when the whale goes under the rope? Nothing no criticism, no warning and no feedback. 38 .Positive reinforcement is th
44、e key of that simple principle that produces such splendid results. And as the whale begins to go over the rope more often than under, the trainers begin to raise the rope. It must be raised slowly enough so that the whale doesnt starve. 39 . Make a big deal out of the good and little stuff that we
45、want consistently. Secondly, under-criticize.
