The landscape looks dull, with hills, sky and forest appearing gray. On May 3, 1 awoke to a green so amazing as to be almost electric,
17、as if spring were simply a matter of pressing a switch. Hills, sky and forest revealed their purples, blues and green. Then there was the old apple tree. It sits on an undeveloped lot in my neighborhood. It belongs to no one and therefore to everyone. The trees dark branches stretch out in unpruned(
18、未经修剪的)abandon. Until last year, I thought I was the only one aware of this tree. And then one day, in a bit of spring madness, I set out to prune(修剪)a few disorderly branches. No sooner had I arrived under the tree than neighbors opened their windows and stepped onto their porches(门廊). These were pe
19、ople I barely knew, but it was as if I had come uninvited into their personal gardens. My mobile-home neighbor was the first to speak. “Youre not going to cut it down, are you?” she asked anxiously. Soon, half the neighborhood joined me under the apple tree. It struck me that I had lived there for f
20、ive years and only now was learning these peoples names, what they did for a living and how they passed the winter. It was as if the old apple tree was gathering us under its branches for the purpose of both acquaintanceship and shared wonder. Just the other day, I saw one neighbor at the local stor

And its a common debate between couples the perfect temperature to keep both parties warm but not hot. Research doe
25、s consistently show women prefer a higher indoor temperature to men. But is there any science backing up the widespread belief that women “feel the cold” more than men?At around the same body weight, women tend to have less muscle to produce heat. Women also have more fat between the skin and the mu
26、scles, so the skin feels colder, as its slightly further away from blood vessels. Women also tend to have a lower metabolic(代谢)rate than men, which reduces heat production during cold exposure, making women more likely to feel cold as the temperature drops. The hormones oestrogen and progesterone(雌激
27、素和孕激素), found in large quantities in women, contribute to the core body and skin temperatures. Oestrogen dilates(扩张)blood vessels at the extremities. This means more heat can be lost to the surrounding air. And progesterone can cause the vessels in the skin to narrow, meaning less blood will flow to
28、 some areas to keep the inner organs warmer, leaving women feeling cooler. So how do we agree on the ideal temperature? The “Scandinavian sleep method”, where couples sleep with separate blankets, is one way to overcome the differences in temperature preferences. In the workplace, personal comfort s
29、ystems are heat systems that can be locally positioned in individual work stations such as desktops, chairs, or near the feet and legs. Examples include small desk fans, heated chairs and blankets, or foot-warmers. These systems provide individualised comfort to meet personal needs without affecting
30、 others in the same space, and have been found to produce higher comfort satisfaction in the workplace.

34、ic field(磁场)of the earth and will know which direction to fly if it is time to migrate(迁徙). A snake will detect the presence of humans in the room by sensing their radiation. Each of these creatures could all be sharing exactly the same physical space and have a totally different experience of that
35、space. Each animal has access to its own sensory environment called an “umwelt”. “Umwelt” was popularized by a German biologist named Jakob von Uexkll. The word comes from the German for “environment”, but Jakob von Uexkll wasnt using it to mean the physical environment. He meant the sensory environ
36、ment, the unique set of smells, sights, sounds and textures that each animal has access to. Humans cant sense the faint electric fields that sharks and ducks can, or the magnetic fields that robins and sea turtles detect. Our ears cant hear the call of rodents and hummingbirds, and our eyes cant see
37、 the light that birds and bees can sense. Our noses cant detect various odors(气味)that dogs would be able to smell. So imagining the world as animals perceive it opens up a new appreciation for the everyday wonders of nature. If we think of nature as something remote and distant, accessible only to s
38、omeone who can go to a national park, we lose the motivation to save and protect it. Instead, we can go on an adventure just by thinking about the sensory world of the bird that sits on the house opposite us. Then nature would feel like something close. In that case, people will be more motivated to
39、 try and protect it. Protecting nature isnt just about saving whales or pandas, but about protecting things that are close to us.12.
