6 . In May this year, as part of our 150th anniversary, we asked readers aged between 18 and 25 to enter an essay competition. The task was to tell us, in no more than 1,000 words, what scientific advance they would most like to see in their lifetimes, and why it mattered to them.
The response was phenomenal: we received 661 entries. Some entrants hoped that science would make their lifetimes much longer than they can currently expect. Many looked forward to work that will end climate change. Others wanted to see advances in our understanding of human history, crop growth, space exploration, and medical technologies. The ideas were inspiring.
The winner is a compelling essay by Yasmin Ali, a PhD student at the University of Nottingham, UK. Ali submitted a piece on Beethoven, her brother’s hearing loss and the science which she hoped would one day cure it. It stood out to the judges as a reminder of why many scientists do research: to make the world better tomorrow than it is today.
All essays were judged by a group of Nature editors. The top ten submissions were then ranked by three members of a separate judging group: Magdalena Skipper, editor-in-chief of Nature; Faith Osier, a researcher; and Jess Wade, a physicist. All submissions were kept anonymous throughout the process.
We also selected two runners-up(非冠军的获奖者).Physicist Robert Schittko at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, proposes that nuclear fusion(核聚变) could offer a solution to the climate crisis, in a piece that effortlessly mixes grand ambition with gentle humour. And chemist Matthew Zajac at the University of Chicago in Illinois wrote a powerful personal account of why he wants to see advances in the field of same-sex reproduction.
The results show that today’s young scientists have a wealth of ideas, talent and conviction that research can transform their world. We look forward to seeing what they do next.

9 . Six Solar Terms in Summer
Lixia
Lixia is the first solar term in summer, signifying the beginning of the hot summer.
Xiaoman and Mangzhong
During Xiaoman, summer harvest crops such as wheat already bear fruits, and their seeds are full though they are not ripe yet. Thus, the solar term is named Xiaoman. The solar term Xiaoman is in late May. Summer begins to reach all parts of the country. Rainfall begins to increase further. Mangzhong means, "wheat with awn(芒)should be harvested soon, and rice seeds with awn can be sown".
Xiazhi
On the day of Xiazhi, the daytime in the Northern Hemisphere(半球)reaches its maxi-mum length.
Xiaoshu and Dashu
A.The character shu means heat. |
B.It predicts the busy farming activities of farmers. |
C.The temperatures rise and summer drought begins. |
D.The more northern a place is, the longer its daytime is. |
E.People need to prepare for heat prevention and cooling. |
F.It means the end of spring, and the beginning of summer. |
G.It marks the hottest period with the highest temperatures in a year. |
10 . Despite the successful creation of young by cloning various species, researchers still have limited understanding of the technique. Although the overall efficiency and safety of cloning in animals has significantly increased over the past fifteen years, it is not yet a safe process. For example, the rate of dead births and developmental abnormalities remains high. Another source of concern is the risk of premature ageing because of shortened telomeres(端粒酶). Telomeres get shorter as an animal gets older. When the telomeres of a cell get so short that they disappear, the cell dies. The concern is that cloned animals may get the shortened telomeres, with possibly premature aging and a shortened lifespan as a result.
For many, the fact that cloning is unsafe provides a good reason not to pursue it. It has been argued that it would simply be wrong to put such significant health risks on humans. The strongest version of this argument states that it would be wrong now to produce a child by cloning because it would be a case of illegal birth. Against this, it has been argued that even if cloning is unsafe, it may still be permissible if there are no safer means to bring that very same child into existence.
With the actual rate of advancement in cloning, one cannot deny a future in which the safety and efficiency of cloning will be equal or superior to that of test-tube baby. A remaining question is, then, whether those who condemn(谴责)cloning because of its experimental nature should continue to condemn it morally and legally. Some authors have reasoned that if, in the future, cloning becomes safer than sexual reproduction, we should even make it our reproductive method of choice.
