96楼 Back when an airy通气的、轻松愉快的 two-bedroom apartment was a particularly spacious宽敞的 cave, people worked hard for their food. Fat, salt and sugar were rarities稀薄(稀有、珍品), ostensibly表面上、外表上 gorged狼吞虎咽、塞饱 峡谷、饱食 upon at every infrequent opportunity, and our palates口味、爱好、上腭 evolved to let us know just how delectable愉悦的、赏心悦目的 these substances were. Unfortunately, fat and salt and sugar can be found pretty much anywhere now, and procuring获得、促成 them costs little more than spare change underneath the couch cushions.

As outlined概述、轮廓、大纲 in our submission to Congress, we intend to be accountable负有责任的 for this loan, including meeting the specific具体的、明确的 requirements set forth by the government, and will continue to implement our plan for long-term viability. The receipt of this loan means Chrysler can continue to pursue its vision想象、幻想、视觉 to build the fuel-efficient, high-quality cars and trucks people want to buy, will enjoy driving and will want to buy again. For Chrysler to succeed in its mission to return to profitability, we need the continued support of our many business partners. Terms associated with the bridge loan include Chrysler’s commitment to work with key constituents – including our owners, lenders, suppliers, dealers商人, management and employees – to identify and achieve the cost-savings concessions特许权、让步、认可 we need to build a long-term viable enterprise. These concessions discussions will happen quickly, as a full governmental review and approval of our plan is expected by March 31, 2009.

We will ask our suppliers to maintain their commitment to reasonable trade terms and normal fulfillment of orders for as long as the federal loan is outstanding. This will assure that neither Chrysler, nor our suppliers would suffer the substantial losses caused by the plant/production shutdowns that result from stop shipments or other disruptions.

104楼 Does light push or pull? For 100 years, scientists have disagreed over whether light increases or decreases its momentum(动量、动力、要素) as it passes from glass into air. Now an experiment by researchers in China may have finally settled the matter. To see the effect, the researchers needed to use a very thin, lightweight(轻的、轻量级选手、不能胜任者) fibre just half a micrometre(um微米) wide, dangling(摇晃) freely in air. When they shone pulses of laser light down the fibre, they saw it wiggle(扭动) and swing(摇摆) like a pendulum(钟摆、摇摆不定的事态), in a manner consistent with an increase in momentum as the light exits — exactly as Abraham predicted. Can light give fibre-optic wire a kick?

106楼 If you're keen to establish your green credentials(n.证明、资格、说明书) you can install solar panels or stick a wind turbine(n.涡轮机、汽轮机) on your roof. Or you could become a patient of Dr Alan Bittner. The leading Beverly Hills cosmetic surgeon claims to be saving the planet by using fat removed from clients in liposuction(n.吸脂术) operations to power his 4x4 car. Not only do they get to lose their love handles or chubby圆胖的、丰满的 belly腹部, but they get to take part in saving the Earth.' U.S. authorities are less impressed and have launched an inquiry into his claims that he is converting the waste fat into bio-diesel生物柴油(diesel柴油)or 'lipodiesel' as he calls it. He is believed to have moved to South America after several patients filed登记备案、提出 a lawsuit诉讼 against his practice for allegedly依其申述 allowing his unlicensed girlfriend to carry out operations. U.S. business magazine Forbes reported that Dr Bittner used the 'lipofuel' to power both his Ford Explorer and his girlfriend's Lincoln Navigator.
