Con người đã ở Mỹ 100.000 năm trước đó hơn chúng ta nghĩ, nghiên cứu yêu cầu bồi thường
Những vẫn còn của một voi răng mấu phát hiện trong một cuộc khai quật thường lệ ở California cho thấy hoạt động của con người có thể ở Bắc Mỹ 130.000 năm trước--hoặc khoảng 115.000 năm sớm hơn so với trước đây nghĩ.
Marsh với San Diego Natural History Museum phát hiện phần còn lại của các động vật giống như con voi nhiều hơn 20 năm trước đây. Nhưng nó không cho đến bây giờ mà các nhà khoa học đã có thể chính xác ngày những phát hiện, và có thể viết lại lịch sử của Tân thế giới như chúng ta biết nó.

"Đây là một trò chơi bóng hoàn toàn mới," Steve Holen, đồng giám đốc của Trung tâm nghiên cứu Mỹ thời đồ đá cũ và các tác giả chính của tờ báo, nói với CNN. Khám phá sự thay đổi sự hiểu biết của khi con người đạt đến Bắc Mỹ. Nghiên cứu, được công bố trong tuần này tại các tạp chí khoa học tự nhiên, nói rằng các mảnh vỡ xương chân tay nhiều của một voi răng mấu Nam trẻ tuổi tìm thấy tại các trang web hiển thị xoắn ốc gãy xương, cho biết họ đã bị hỏng trong khi tươi.

The chief executive officers of America's largest companies were paid an average of $15.6 million in 2016 says a recent study by an economic research group. The Economic Policy Institute published the report written by Lawrence Mischel and Jessica Schieder. They say the average business leader’s pay was 271 times what an average worker earns at the companies they studied.

This chief executive-to-worker pay ratio is smaller than it has been in the past few years. In 2014, the ratio was 299-to-1, according to the report. However, it is still much higher than the 20-to-1 ratio between chief executives and workers in 1965. In 1989, that difference was 59-to-1. In the last 30 years, the salaries of chief executive officers, or CEOs, has grown much faster than the pay of the average worker at the companies they oversee. In addition, CEO’s pay has increased much faster than the value of stock shares in the companies they lead.

Các giám đốc điều hành của các công ty lớn nhất Mỹ đã được trả trung bình 15,6 triệu đô la vào năm 2016 cho biết một nghiên cứu gần đây của một nhóm nghiên cứu kinh tế. Viện Chính sách Kinh tế đã công bố báo cáo được viết bởi Lawrence Mischel và Jessica Schieder. Họ nói rằng mức lương trung bình của lãnh đạo doanh nghiệp là 271 lần so với thu nhập của một công nhân trung bình tại các công ty mà họ đã theo học.

Tỷ lệ chi tiêu cho giám đốc điều hành của nhân viên này nhỏ hơn so với trong những năm gần đây. Trong năm 2014, tỷ lệ là 299-đến-1, theo báo cáo. Tuy nhiên, tỷ lệ này vẫn cao hơn rất nhiều so với tỉ lệ 20-đến-1 giữa các giám đốc điều hành và công nhân vào năm 1965. Năm 1989, sự khác biệt đó là 59-1. Trong 30 năm qua, tiền lương của các giám đốc điều hành, hoặc CEO, đã tăng nhanh hơn mức lương trung bình của công nhân tại các công ty mà họ giám sát. Ngoài ra, mức lương của CEO đã tăng nhanh hơn nhiều so với giá trị cổ phiếu của các công ty mà họ dẫn đầu.

Practice 2:

The Hudson River is one of the most significant rivers in America, though it is not the largest. It was named after Henry Hudson, an English explorer who charted the river for the Dutch East India Company. The Hudson goes for 315 miles, starting in the Adirondack Mountains in New York State. It enters the ocean around New York City.

Washington Irving, an American writer, was one of the first to write about the Hudson River. He lived in the Hudson River Valley and wrote about the unique characteristics of this area. He developed the first kind of American folklore and told a story of a man named Rip Van Winkle. Rip Van Winkle fell asleep one day while climbing the mountains around the Hudson River. He did not wake up for twenty years. When he finally woke up, America had become a free country.

The river has not only been written about by famous writers, but has had practical purposes as well. It was an important means of transportation as America developed. The Eric Canal was built to connect the river to Lake Erie, one of the nation’s great lakes. This canal allowed the many cities on the Great Lakes to get goods from Europe. The Hudson River Valley area was also good for building railroads. All in all, the Hudson River is an important river in America.

A. Washington Irving’s River C. A River of American Importance

B. The Biggest River in America D. Why Americans Built the Erie Canal

2. Why does the author mention “Washington Irving*’ in paragraph 2?

The discovery that language can be a barrier to communication is quickly made by all who travel, study, govern or sell. Whether the activity is tourism, research, government, policing, business, or data dissemination, the lack of a common language can severely impede progress or can halt it altogether. 'Common language' here usually means a foreign language, but the same point applies in principle to any encounter with unfamiliar dialects or styles within a single language. 'They don't talk the same language' has a major metaphorical meaning alongside its literal one.

Although communication problems of this kind must happen thousands of times each day, very few become public knowledge. Publicity comes only when a failure to communicate has major consequences, such as strikes, lost orders, legal problems, or fatal accidents — even, at times, war. One reported instance of communication failure took place in 1970, when several Americans ate a species of poisonous mushroom. No remedy was known, and two of the people died within days. A radio report of the case was heard by a chemist who knew of a treatment that had been successfully used in 1959 and published in 1963. Why had the American doctors not heard of it seven years later? Presumably, because the report of the treatment had been published only in journals written in European languages other than English.

Several comparable cases have been reported. But isolated examples do not give an impression of the size of the problem — something that can come only from studies of the use or avoidance of foreign-language materials and contacts in different communicative situations. In the English-speaking scientific world, for example, surveys of books and documents consulted in libraries and other information agencies have shown that very little foreign-language material is ever consulted. Library requests in the field of science and technology showed that only 13 per cent were for foreign language periodicals. Studies of the sources cited in publications lead to a similar conclusion: the use of foreign-language sources is often found to be as low as 10 per cent.

The language barrier presents itself in stark form to firms who wish to market their products in other countries. British industry, in particular, has in recent decades often been criticised for its linguistic insularity - for its assumption that foreign buyers will be happy to communicate in English, and that awareness of other languages is not therefore a priority. In the 1960s, over two-thirds of British firms dealing with non-English-speaking customers were using English for outgoing correspondence; many had their sales literature only in English; and as many as 40 per cent employed no-one able to communicate in the customers' languages. A similar problem was identified in other English-speaking countries, notably the USA, Australia and New Zealand. And non-English-speaking countries were by no means exempt - although the widespread use of English as an alternative language made them less open to the charge of insularity.

The criticism and publicity given to this problem since the 1960s seems to have greatly improved the situation. Industrial training schemes have promoted an increase in linguistic and cultural awareness. Many firms now have their own translation services; to take just one example in Britain, Rowntree Mackintosh now publish their documents in six languages (English, French, German, Dutch, Italian and Xhosa). Some firms run part-time language courses in the languages of the countries with which they are most involved; some produce their own technical glossaries, to ensure consistency when material is being translated. It is now much more readily appreciated that marketing efforts can be delayed, damaged, or disrupted by a failure to take account of the linguistic needs of the customer.

The changes in awareness have been most marked in English-speaking countries, where the realisation has gradually dawned that by no means everyone in the world knows English well enough to negotiate in it. This is especially a problem when English is not an official language of public administration, as in most parts of the Far East, Russia, Eastern Europe, the Arab world, Latin America and French-speaking Africa. Even in cases where foreign customers can speak English quite well, it is often forgotten that they may not be able to understand it to the required level - bearing in mind the regional and social variation which permeates speech and which can cause major problems of listening comprehension. In securing understanding, how 'we' speak to 'them' is just as important, it appears, as how 'they' speak to 'us'.
