4、allenge will become even more difficult. Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates.

5、t support from the international community. 59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems.

6、al(外部的)financing and technical support. The 29 countries lagging(落后)farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented(空前的)rates of progress. But this is attainable with creative solutions, including the use of information technologies, flexible and targeted foreign aid, and fewer people

7、living in poverty. A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a countrys capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies, institutions and management.

The reasons are economic and social. “This is a pattern that will continue,“ predicts Neil Howe, a historian and e

14、conomist. “ High rates of multigenerational family living had been a norm until after World War II, when the emphasis shifted to the nuclear family enabled by construction of interstate highways, the rise of suburbs and the affluence(富裕)of young adults. But by the late 1950s and 1970s, there was a g

15、eneration gap and almost generation war ,“ Howe says. “There was a time in the 1970s when no one wanted to live together. Seniors were moving to Leisure World to get away from the culture of the kids. Couples were divorcing and youngsters wanted to strike out on their own . But now, many young adult

16、s do return home, at least temporarily . “ Michele Beatty, 54, of Waynesville, Ohio, and her husband, Cordon, 56, had an empty nest between the time the youngest of their three sons went to college and the return of their oldest, Patrick, who left his job as a graphic designer. “ They said, you can

17、come home to your old room and continue to look for employment, “says Patrick Beatty, 28. “I was stuck there.

18、he house when I can. I try to stay out of their way as much as possible. It s home , but not the home Id be building for myself if I had my way .“ A survey of 2, 226 adults, done by Narris Interactive for the non-profit Generations United, found that of those in a multigenerational home, 40% reporte

23、 effect on sleep of long , irregular work hours as the cause. The study, which measured obesity using estimates of body mass index(体质指数), found that nursing schedules affected not only the health of the nurses but the quality of patient care . “Health care professionals are often involved in providi

24、ng advice or care to patients that relates to things that arent totally under control in their own lives. Its not uniform for health care professionals to eat well or avoid tobacco ,“ said Dr. David Katz, the director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center. Keith-Thomas Ayoob, associate p

25、rofessor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, said nurses are just as susceptible to health problems as the rest of society. “Before we were health professionals, we were real people. Just because we became health professionals doesnt mean we stopped being members of regular society with all

26、the problems that go along with it. It illustrates that knowledge alone isnt always enough to produce behavioral changes,“ said Ayoob. The same is true with smoking, Ayoob said. “We all know smoking is bad. It doesnt matter if youre a doctor or a nurse or a plumber. You might assume that your intere

27、st in health would be higher if you were a health professional, but a lot of doctors and nurses smoke,“ said Ayoob. “ Nurses need to understand the importance of taking care of themselves before patients or their families,“ Ayoob said. To combat the high obesity rate among nurses, Kihye Han, the aut

32、.More exerciseA new study shows an astonishing number of people are using their cellphones on the john(盥洗室). From web browsing and texting to conference calls and online shopping, it seems this technology-driven world leaves no time for bathroom breaks. 11 mark, an integrated marketing agency, surve

33、yed 1 ,000 American mobile users in October. Seventy-five percent of them admitted they used their phones while on the toilet leaving no mystery as to what happens behind closed stalls. And this doesnt just account for the technology-addicted youth. Forty-seven percent of mobile users from the Silen

34、t Generation(born 1946 or before), 65 percent of Baby Boomers(19461964)and 80 percent of Gen X-ers(19651976)use their cell phones in the bathroom. But as expected, Generation Y has the highest percentage of multitaskers, using their phones and the john at the same time. Did the same percentage of Ge

35、n Y wash their hands afterward? Ninety-two percent of those surveyed reported they washed their hands after using the restroom(perhaps all those “You must wash your hands before returning to work“ signs have started to pay off ). But unfortunately the same cannot be said for their mobile devicesonly

36、 14 percent wash theirphones after using the bathroom. Maybe this calls for a new-age health initiative, requiring public restaurants to change their signs to “ You must wash your handsand your phonebefore returning to work. “ And for many, toilet talking and texting was not a just one-time thing, u

37、sed only in the most dire(急迫的)circumstances. Twenty-four percent of mobile users reported they actually don t go to the bathroom without their phones.

41、 includes work, leisure time, hobbies, other interests, and personal philosophy. One persons lifestyle may be dominated by work with few social activities. Anothers may involve hobbies, recreational activities or personal philosophy. There is little doubt that lifestyles are changing and that these

42、changes will have an impact on the way business operates in the years ahead. Several cases are causing lifestyle changes in somedeveloped countries. First, there is more leisure time than ever before. The workweek is now less than forty hours, as compared with seventy hours a century ago. Some exper

43、ts believe it will be twenty-five hours or less in a few decades. Several firms have adopted four-day workweeks with more hours per day. Others have cut down on the number of working hours each week. Reduced work schedules mean increased leisure time. Second, families have fewer children than before

44、and young couples are postponing childbirth instead of having children early in the marriage. This trend has forced many businesses to modify their competitive strategies. Gerber Products Company used to advertise “ babies are our business-our only business“. Now Gerber products include infant and t

45、oddler clothing, stuffed animals and accessories such as bottles, baby powder and so on. Third, people are better educated and more prosperous now than they were earlier. Theseadvantages bring with them the freedom to question current lifestyles and examine new ones. Inquiries of this nature have so

46、metimes led to personal lifestyle changes. Todays youth, for example, are not only better educated but more independent and individualistic(我行我素的)than past generations.
