No matter how good things get, they still only see the bad. They go to huge lengths to point it ou

25、t to everyone around them.I m not saying we should forbid complaining, but workplaces need to do something about the chronic complainers because they tend to make people around them unhappy at work.

33、bats. A year ago, a two-year-old boy who lived within meters of the tree died in December 2013 and later was identified as the first person in West Africa to have developed Ebola. The question now troubles researchers; were the tree s occupants the cause of that boy s virus in the first place? Yet t

34、hey will never know the answer. By March 2014, that tree was burnt down. Thousands of dead bats rained down on the village, but all researchers were left with were fragments of bat DNA.The fire spoiled the researcher s plans since no Ebola genetic information could be gathered from the remains of bu

35、rnt bats. And, Making matters worse, the same bat species had totally disappeared in the area. The research team also gathered other bat species from the area, but found those were all Ebola-free.The work from researchers fails to pinpoint the bat species that may be behind Ebola, but it does shed l

36、ight on other facts around the disease. They have found it unlikely that primates (靈長 目動物 were behind this outbreak.

41、ack took a dummy (假的 pill which they thought of as a widely used headache drug, it reduced their pain. It worked almost as much as when they took the real drug thinking it was a placebo (安慰劑 .“ There was no difference between the real drug and the placebo dressed up with a nice word in reducing pain

42、, ” researcher Ted Kaptchuk says. “ Basically we show that words can actually double the effect of a drug. That s pretty impressive.”And if it works when treating headaches, it also might work for a wide variety of other illnesses. The findings have interesting implications for doctors and patients,
