Kindergartners will enter school at different levels of writing. ____66____ The basic expectation, however, is that your child should enter kindergarten writing his name, recognizing the letters in his name, understanding that letters make up words, and knowing that spoken words can become written words.

The secrets of happiness all lie in your Operating System. The trouble is that we get blinded by our Operating System. This is because our Operating System attempts to fit what's happening around us into our Operating System's expectations. Anything different is resisted as much as it can be.

So your Operating System is always going to be riddled with flaws(缺点) and errors. It's in its nature. This is where all progress and evolution comes from. Every flaw and bug you discover and fix in the Operating System is another leap forward in the quality of your life.

Now every day across the world there are hundreds of instances where people are making new discoveries and overturning old beliefs. This is the process of life.

If you want something that you don’t have…it's your Operating System that is blocking it off to you. This means you have to identify the flaw in your Operating System that is blocking you from having what you want. Then you transform the structure of your Operating System to let it in.

Opportunities are around you all the time. There is never a boat that you must catch. There is another boarding all the time. It is only the fact that you aren't seeing the opportunities that stops you from getting what you want.

Upgrading your Operating System is training it to show you the opportunities all around you. And then life is like picking fruit from a tree.

Research led by UK and Australian scientists sheds (发出)new light on the role that our ancestors played in the extinction of Australia's prehistoric animals. The new study provides the first evidence that Tasmania's giant prehistoric animals were still living on the island when humans first arrived.

The findings suggest that the mass extinction of Tasmania's large prehistoric animals was the result of human hunting, and not climate change as previously believed.

　 Scientists have long argued over the reasons behind the worldwide mass extinction that took place towards the end of the last ice age. The main culprits are generally thought to be climate change or some form of human impact. People only arrived in Tasmania around 43,000 years ago, when the island became temporarily connected by a land bridge to mainland Australia. None of Tasmania's giant animals, known as "megafauna" were known to have survived until this time. This appeared to clear humans of any involvement in the disappearance of the island's large megafauna.

This new international study reports the discovery of giant kangaroos surviving in Tasmania until people arrived, placing humans back on the list of likely culprits for the extinction of the megafauna.

　 Using the latest techniques, the team were able to determine the age of the fossilized remains of the megafauna more accurately than ever before. The results showed that some of these animals survived until at least 41,000 years ago一much later than previously thought and up to 2,000 years after the first human settlers arrived. As climate in Tasmania was not changing dramatically at this time, the researchers argue that this is evidence of these species being driven to extinction through over-hunting by humans.
