These so-called “l(fā)ocavores (土食者)” are shopping at farmers markets and joining food coops (食品合作社), because they enjoy knowing who grows the food. They are also driven to eat locally grown produce and meat because their promise to do so makes them feel a part of something greater than themselves.

Vasi, an associate professor at the UI, said the local food market is a “moralized (道德化的) market”, and that is a market in which people combine economic activities with their values. Among the findings, the UI researchers discovered local food markets were more likely to develop in areas where local people had a strong promise to social duty, health and the environment. “It’s about valuing the relationship with the farmers and people who produce the food and believing that how they produce the food agrees with your personal values.” Vasi said.???

Vasi shared the results of the study at the American Sociology Association annual meeting in Chicago on Aug. 22, 2015. Researchers also did 40 interviews with consumers and producers in different local food markets in Iowa and New York.

The clockwork radio was invented in 1991 by Trevor Bayliss, a British inventor. Trevor had the idea while he was listening to some news about Africa on the radio. It was reported that Africans were dying of Aids(艾滋病) and there was no easy way to send them some information about the disease.

But no one would help Trevor develop his idea for a new kind of radio. Finally, in 1993, a TV program showed his invention, and afterwards, a South African businessman heard of Trevor’s clever idea and contacted(聯(lián)系) him.The first clockwork radios were made in South Africa in 1995.

Since then, the radios have been a great success. Trevor has been given many prizes.

Trevor has hung a letter written by another engineer on the wall in his house. The engineer explained in the letter why he thought Trevor’s idea for a clockwork radio couldn’t possibly work!

The self-driving（自駕的）car hasn’t been on sale to the public, so we don’t know how much it costs. Another thing that most people want to know is whether it will be safe enough to run on the road.

The self-driving car uses electricity as its power, and it can’t drive very quickly—the top speed would be 25 miles per hour. It is actually controlled by a computer system in the car. The system keeps on collecting information by some video cameras inside the car. A computer receives the information and decides what to do.

“The self-driving car has only buttons (按鈕) for go and stop, so it’s very easy to use.” an engineer of Google says, “It will make car accidents less and the world safer.” The self-driving car has traveled hundreds of thousands of miles in California, and it has only gotten into two accidents by human mistake.

“My heart was beating fast. I was shaking. I was so nervous,” Diana Gopear, Emily’s step-mother, said.Emily gave her step-mother the surprise of a life time. “It was just amazing. I could hardly read it. ” Diana said. She read some of the letter aloud. “Without you, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today.”

“I wrapped it really nice so it wouldn’t be broken. It was five?pages about how amazing she is and each page had a picture of her, and then at the end said ‘will you accept me?’ And then the paper behind it was the one where she had to sign it,” Emily said.

Diana Gopear has known Emily since she was a little baby. “I never liked the word step for step-parent because some people aren’t step-parents. Some people are worth being a step-parent but in our situation it was just the way it was, ” she said. And while the birthday gift probably won’t ever be the best, but it is the most valuable for her.

“Blood doesn’t make you family, so she’s my mom because she’s been there for me, so she is worth being my mom in-law.” Emily said.

The hygge refers to the sense of happiness you get when your family is gathered together at new year or Christmas. It is all about the pleasant feelings of home: the smell of your mother’s cooking, your partner’s arm around your shoulder and so on.

Hygge is an antidote(良藥) to stress. You know when you’ve got it, a gentle warmth starts spreading through your body. Another important part of hygge is that it has nothing to do with modern technology. It’s a period time to relax your tired mind and eyes. So, put down that smartphone and turn off the computer.

You should also know that hygge is not about healthy eating or more exercise. In fact, it’s just the opposite. You’re supposed to be lost in what you like: enjoy sweet snacks and calorie-laden cakes freely.

Let yourself be carried on a wave of nostalgia(懷舊) back to your birthplace, and remember? the childhood songs of your distant youth with a smile. If it helps, wrap yourself in a warm blanket and sleep with one of your favorite books (not a pill or e-reader).

If Denmark seems too far, then think of old Beijing with its hutong and courtyard houses. Picture yourself sit around a traditional stove with your loved ones, eating dumplings and chatting about the old days. Let yourself drift back in time to a period where everything is relaxing, and there is no need to reply to any e-mails or text messages. They did not exist(存在) back then.

Now you’ve really understood hygge without even having to set foot in Copenhagen.
