Heiss said he had attempted to send Christmas letters to Santa Claus via balloon when he was a kid but never received a response. Heiss sent a Facebook message on Wednesday to XENY, a radio station in Nogal
21、es, to see if it could help him track down the girl or her family.

Alexander is a member of the Silver Spring Time Bank-one of more than 100 such exchanges around the world trying to build community by exchanging time credits for services instead of dollars and cents. “I have time,“ she said. “I like giving the gift
29、 of time to other people. “ In Alexanders case, passengers Mary and Al Liepold were grateful for the ride, but it wasnt charity. Mary,a retired writer and editor for nonprofit organizations, used time credits she banked for editing work and baking. Senior citizens who dont drive, the Liepolds cashed
30、 in their credits to catch a flight to Montreal for a five-day vacation. Without money changing hands or shifting between virtual accounts, the airport drop-off was more like a coffee party than a taxi ride. Driver and passengers chatted about projects theyve completed for the time bank, and no one
31、raised an eyebrow when Mary said she likes “to avoid the conventional economy. “ “The beauty of this is that you make friends,“ Mary Liepold said. “You dont just get services.“The Silver Spring Time Bank formed in 2015 and has about 300 members, said co-founder Mary Murphy. Last year, she said, l,00
32、0 hours were exchanged for basic home repairs, dog walking, cooking and tailoring, among other services, without the exchange of money. “ You get to save that money that you would have spent,“ she said. “You get to meet somebody else in your community and get to know that person. Thats a bonus thats

36、 time D. Swapping time credits for services D For all the technological wonders of modem medicine, health care-with its fax machines and clipboards(写字板)is out of date. This outdated era is slowly drawing to a close as the industry catches up with the artificial-intelligence ( AI) revolution. Eric To
37、pol, an expert in heart disease and enthusiast for digital medicine, thinks AI will be particularly useful for such tasks as examining images, observing heart traces for abnormalities or turning doctors words into patient records. It will be able to use masses of data to work out the best treatments
38、, and improve workflows in hospitals. In short, AI is set to save time, lives and money. The fear some people have is that AI will be used to deepen the assembly-line culture of modem medicine. If it gives a “ gift of time“ to doctors, they argue that this bonus should be used to extend consultation
39、s, rather than simply speeding through them more efficiently. That is a fine idea, but as health swallows an ever-bigger share of national wealth, greater efficiency is exactly what is needed, at least so far as governments and insurers are concerned. Otherwise, rich societies may fail to cope with
40、the needs of ageing and growing populations. An extra five minutes spent chatting with a patient is costly as well as valuable. The AI revolution will also enable managerial accountants to adjust and evaluate every aspect of treatment. The autonomy of the doctor will surely be weakened, especially,
41、perhaps, in public-health systems which are duty-bound to cut unnecessary costs. The Hippocratic Oath(誓言) holds that there is an art to medicine as well as a science, and that “warmth, sympathy and understanding may outweigh the surgeons knife or the chemists drug“. Theres lots of sense in it: the p

Yet as the supply of human carers fails to satisfy the demand for health care, the future may involve consultations on smartphones and measurements monitored by chatbots.

It is usually used to describe a peaceful period just before a very stre
46、ssful situation or a tense argument. 36 They noted that before certain storms the seas would seem to become calm and the winds would drop. But why is it often so calm before a storm? 37 According to US website HowStuffWorks, a calm period occurs because many storms, tornadoes and hurricanes draw in
47、all the warm and damp air from the surrounding area. As this air rises into the storm clouds, it cools and acts as “ fuel for the storm ,like petrol in a car. “ Once the storm has taken all the energy it can from the air, it is pushed out from the top of the storm clouds and falls back down to groun
48、d level. 38 So once it covers an area, it causes a calm period before the storm. 39 First count how many seconds there are between a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, roughly three seconds equal one kilometer.
