When the bell rings at 9 o'clock,He Yue,18,and a group of other students from Jiangsu Xishan Senior High School,crowd into the student community.They quickly pt on their work uniforms and act as various workers.They could be a banker,a postman,a radio host or even a leader.
当9点铃声响起时，18岁的何悦(音)和一群来自江苏西山高中的其他学生涌进了学生社区。他们很快穿上工作服，扮演不同的职业。他们可以是银行家、邮递员、电台主持人，甚至是领袖。
This is part of a project to create a simulate city run by students. Since last year,He Yue has been serving as an office worker for the student bank named K-bank.Unlike other students,she has a busy "job"during the 40-minute break: help prepare for change,fill in forms and record every business. Sometimes, when a great deal of cash such as class funds and money from the student supermarket is "stored",she needs to count it carefully and report the deal result in time.
这是一个项目的一部分，创建一个模拟城市由学生运行。自去年以来，何悦一直在学生银行K-bank担任办公室职员。与其他学生不同的是，在40分钟的休息时间里，她有一份忙碌的“工作”:帮助准备变革、填写表格和记录每一项业务。有时，当大量现金如班级经费和学生超市的钱被“储存”时，她需要仔细清点并及时报告交易结果。
Besides that,they also offer students free-interest funds and provide safe money-stored boxes.If students want to start a business like designing bookmarks but have no money to buy materials,they can come here to loan."The number of business is nearly 20,000 yuan a year,"said He."With so much money,I've gradually learned to be more careful and thoughtful."
除此之外，他们还为学生提供免费利息基金，并提供储蓄箱。如果学生想创业，比如设计书签，但没有钱购买材料，他们可以来这里贷款。”他说:“我的生意一年将近2万元。有了这么多钱，我逐渐学会了更加谨慎和周到。”
He is not the only one serving the school.Also,some students serve the food test center and other parts of the project including cultural and creative product community,radio stations,roasts... All of these come from real life experiences." Educators must realize that the top goal of education is not just about scoring good grades,but improving useful skills that would allow students to lead a good life,"said Tang Jiangpeng,headmaster of Jiangsu Xishan High School.
他不是唯一一个为学校服务的人。此外，一些学生服务于食品测试中心和其他部分的项目，包括文化和创意产品社区，电台，烘焙…所有这些都来自于现实生活中的经历。”教育工作者必须意识到，教育的最高目标不仅仅是让学生取得好成绩，而是要帮助学生学会和提高有用的技能，让学生过上美好的生活，”江苏西山中学校长唐江鹏说。

A cloned black-footed ferret,Elizabeth Ann,born on Dec. 10, 2020,has become the first successful clone of an endangered animal in the US and has a new page in animal protection.
2020年12月10日出生的克隆黑脚雪貂伊丽莎白·安成为美国第一只成功克隆濒危动物的动物，在动物保护方面掀开了新的一页。
ferret /ˈferɪt/
Black-footed ferrets are one of the most edangered animals
in North America,with fewer than 500 in the wild.But in the early 1900s,they were widespread throughout the American West. Later,the ferrets disappeared with their primary food source, prairie dogs dying out.
黑脚雪貂是最濒危的动物之一在北美，野生的只有不到500只。但在20世纪初，它们在美国西部广泛传播。后来，雪貂由于它们的主要食物来源--草原土拨鼠灭绝，随之跟着也消失了。
Fortunately,thanks to the cloning technology,Elizabeth Ann came to the earth.She was cloned from Willa,a ferret who died in 1988.Willa's genes were saved for years since the cloning technology was not perfect enough at that time."The theory of genes showed the genetic value that Willa could bring to her babies,"Ryan Phelan,who was working in the project,told CNN."But it was a promise to see this type of ferret pass on that has led to the successful birth of Elizabeth Ann."If Elizabeth Ann can reproduce later on,the number of the ferrets may grow,which helps them stand stronger against natural risks,CBS news reported.However,the effects of cloning remain unclear,according to CNN.
幸运的是，多亏了克隆技术，伊丽莎白·安来到了地球。她是从1988年去世的雪貂威拉身上克隆出来的。威拉的基因保存了好几年，因为当时的克隆技术还不够完善。“基因理论表明，薇拉可以给她的孩子带来基因价值，”参与该项目的瑞恩·费兰在接受CNN采访时表示。“但正是为了看到这种类型的雪貂延续下去的希望，导致了伊丽莎白·安的成功出生。”据哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)报道，如果伊丽莎白·安能够在以后繁殖，它们的数量可能会增加，这有助于它们抵御自然风险。然而，根据美国有线电视新闻网报道克隆的影响还不清楚。
Elizabeth Ann will not be put into the wild and will stay in the lab where she was born so researchers can study her,according to BBC.The team is now working on producing more "Elizabeth Anns" in the coming months.Besides that,researchers also point out the importance of protection for ferrets'living places.
据英国广播公司报道，伊丽莎白·安不会被放到野外，而是会待在她出生的实验室里，以便研究人员对她进行研究。该团队目前正致力于在未来几个月生产更多“伊丽莎白·安”。除此之外，研究人员还指出了保护雪貂栖息地的重要性。
