The tradition of putting a letter to an unknown recipient into a bottle and throwing it into the ocean has an interesting past. An early _32_ use for t

28、he practice was revealed when the oldest recorded message in a bottle was found by Tonya on a beach near Wedge Island, Australia.Tonya was on a family outing when she noticed the antique glass bottle in the sand and thought it would make a nice _33_. While she was cleaning the sandy gin bottle, a ro

35、, however, they are crushed by self-blame.We talk often about young adults struggling with failure because their parents have protected them from _45_.

Developed by Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck, mind-set education has spread across classrooms worldwide. But a 2018 a

37、nalysis found that while praising hard work over ability may benefit economically disadvantaged students, it does not _48_ help everyone.One possible explanation comes from Nina Kumar, who argued in a research paper last year that for teens in wealthy, pressure-cooker communities, “It is not a _49_

40、s knowledge comes early to underrepresented minorities whose experience of discrimination (歧視) and inequality teaches them to _53_ what is, for now, largely beyond their control to change. Yet for others, the belief that success is always within their grasp is a setup. Instead of allowing our kids t

46、id Miles, an Australian inventor has been accused of cheating desperate farmers by charging up to $50,000 Australian dollars for delivering rain on demand without so much as explaining the technology behind his business.On the official Miles Research website，Miles explains that in the 1990s he reali

47、zed that it was possible to influence weather patterns by creating a bridge between the present and a near-future event in the physical space-time continuum. He found that by applying small amounts of energy intelligently, even a large, messy weather system approaching from the future could be eased

48、.While somewhat fascinating, Miles explanation does little to explain how he is able to bring rainfall to the lands of farmers. He makes references to famous but debatable concepts like “the butterfly effect”. “We were advised against patenting because ifs basically exposing how it works. There are

49、a lot of big companies that invest in hunting out patents,” Miles said “I understand the doubts，the only other way is to fully prove up our science and physics. If we did that, well lose it, it will be taken up as a national security interest and itll then be weaponized.”Miles claims raised suspicio

51、t the Australian inventor claims the ACCC is only trying to defame him and his company, as in reality they are success based - if it doesnt rain, they dont get paid.“Consumers signed the agreement that if by the end of June they receive 100mm, they pay $50,000, if they only receive 50mm, they would

52、only pay $25,000. Anything under half，we dont want to be paid,” Miles said of a handful of Wimmera farmers who agreed to take him up on his offer to deliver rain.Believe it or not, one of the farmers who paid David Miles for his so-called rain-making capabilities told ABC Radio that he was quite hap
