28、SCO World Heritage Site.Archaeologist Fan was sent to Dunhuang after graduation from Peking University in 1963. While in Dunhuang, a remote village in the desert then, Fan lived in an abandoned temple. At first, she did not even dare to go out to the toilet at night. To protect the treasures from sa
29、nd and dampness, Fan and other workers put doors on the caves, planted trees and started monitoring temperature and humidity in the caves. They also controlled the number of visitors.In the late 1990s, with tourism booming nationwide since national holidays were extended, the local government planne
30、d to go public with Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, but found Fan firmly in their way. “The heritage would have been destroyed if it had been listed,” she said.Dunhuang Academy has now photographed and cataloged online all the sculptures and paintings. “Despite our efforts to minimize damage, we cant compl
31、etely stop them from being eroded. But the digital database will last.”Fan was grateful when her husband joined her in Dunhuang in 1986 after 19 years of separation. Her two sons grew up in Shanghai with their aunt. “I have not been a good mother or wife. With regard to my family, Im full of guilt,”

36、practise how to behave in an interview or how to find all internship(实习). In some countries, schools have programs to help students onto the path to work. In the United States, however, such programs are still few and far between.Research shows that if high schools provide career-related courses, st
37、udents are likely to get higher earnings in later years. The students are more likely to stay in school, graduate and go on to higher education.In Germany, students as young as 13 and 14 are expected to do internships. German companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the educati
38、on they need for future employment.But in America, education reform programs focus on how well students do in exams instead of bringing them into contact with the working world. Harvard Education school professor Robert Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates di
39、rectly on the four-year college track. Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the countrys most vulnerable(易受影响的) kids with no jobs and no skills.Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education while also teaching them valuable practical skills at high sc
40、hool. James Madison High School in New York, for example, encourages students to choose classes on career-based courses. The school then helps them gain on-the-job experience in those fields while theyre still at high school.5However, even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work,
41、 the job market is daunting. In the US,unemployment rates for 16-to-l9-year-olds are above 20 percent for the third summer in a row.“The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the summer job experience, they become part of this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job,” said Michael, a re

46、ays listening, never off-duty. I invited a group of friends round to my house, telling them that I was going to record their speech. I said I was interested in their regional accents, and that it would take only a few minutes. Thus one evening, three people turned up at my house and were shown into
47、my front room. When they saw the room they were a bit anxious, for there was a microphone at head height, with wires leading to a tape-recorder in the middle of the floor. They sat down, rather nervously, and I explained that all I wanted was for them to count from 1 to 20. Then we could relax and have a drink. I turned on the tape-recorder and each in turn counted seriously from 1 to 20 in their best accents. When it was over, I turned the tape-recorder off and brought round the drinks. The rest of the evening w
