31、are less clear.(10)On Social Number, which launched in December and already has thousands of registered users according to the company, individuals sign up and pick a long number that becomes their identity on the network, which doesnt rely on names or usernames like other sites.

36、d food additives might actually hijack the pathways of the brain in ways that are similar to pain-killers and other drugs.(13)The evidence suggests that sugar in particular stimulates a greater release of chemicals in the brain including dopamine, the “pleasure molecule“ than releases triggered by,

37、say, fruit and vegetables. Over time, the brains circuitry might become rewired to produce less dopamine in response to high-calorie, flavor-enhanced foods.(14)As a result and possibly in combination with genetics and environmental factors some people will eat more, attempting to stimulate dopamine

38、production to feel good. Thats similar to what often happens when a person is addicted to alcohol, nicotine or narcotics.

39、to suggest that people who find food more exciting are more likely to overeat and gain weight.

It gives me great honor to introduce

43、our speaker for todays lecture, Dr. David Robinson. Dr. Robinson, professor of human resource at Northwestern University,(16)has written numerous articles and books on the issues about how to give a good presentation in front of many people: it is not enough to just express your own opinions, but al

44、so make your audience absorbed and involved. Dr. Robinson: Thank you for that introduction. I feel honored to give a speech here.

Not one, not two, not half. most of the presentations! The fault isnt of the presenters:

48、No one taught them how to make a great presentation: no one taught them that their slides are as important as their speech. The only way to make people listen to you is to grab their attention with a phenomenal presentation. If your slides show a lot of text, they will bore people. People are lazy:

49、they dont want to read while you are speaking. They dont need to read what you are saying them. If your slides are black and white, theyll appear uninteresting. If your slides show confused data and/or text, people wont pay attention.(18)People want to learn while they get entertained. Some boring slides wont entertain them. Making a great presentation is pretty easy if you know how to do it. (19)Images can be very powerful. They are probably the most important part of the presentation.
