I have to admit I’m an old-school reader. Put simply, I old books.
Alone in a new city to my first daily newspaper job, I was feeling vaguely anxious as I dipped into a used bookstore to my mind. The shelves, full of the smell of the past, quickly me. One of the occupational hazards (职业病) of journalism, my chosen , is a desire to stay on top of the Next Big Thing. With their cracked spines (书脊) and yellowed , the titles in the shop usefully pointed me toward the longer view. “No to get too worked up over today’s headline,” they seemed to say. “ There is not much under the sun.”
Francis Bacon’s essays are always a ready antidote (解药). “Prosperity (繁荣) is not without many and dislikes,” Bacon wrote, and“ is not without comforts and hopes.” For me, that comfort and hope often come from a second-hand .
Reading deeply from the past can be at least as as following the day’s news. Don’t missing out on the gossip. All matters of fact, which a man did not before, are news to him.

The Dead Sea might be the most famous saline body in the world, but it’s by no means the only one. Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world.
Dead Sea
The most famous of the lot, the Dead Sea—also known as the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): Bring some reading material to the waters and lie back—nature will do the rest.
Lake Assal
Surrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in
Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the centre of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.
Great Salt Lake
The biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere, and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but also Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park, both offering super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.
Don Juan Pond
Don Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but it is worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even
when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.
【小题1】What can visitors probably do in Lake Assal?
【小题2】What is the Great Salt Lake famous for?
【小题3】Which lake is valuable for space exploration?

Leia was fresh out of college when she began working as a member of a business-development team at a mid- size tech company. Though her skills had earned her the job, she was the youngest person in the team. “Everybody else was pretty much twice my age,” she says. “I heard about comments being made behind my back. There were a couple of times when my superiors referred to my age right in front of me, saying I was too young, ‘What does a 23- year-old know about these things?’”
Leia tried to change things by altering her appearance at work. “I changed the way I dressed. I tried to dress older, more ‘ladylike’. I changed my mannerisms and tried to act older,” she says. “It worked, to an extent.” The comments about her age and perceived ( 认 定 的 ) inexperience lessened, but Leia says she still felt like her growth potential was limited. She left the company soon after.
