12、 on how cooking and eating the food that her mom once prepared gives her a way to connect to her identity. Fat Chance, Charlie Vega by Crystal MaldonadoCrystal Maldonado creates a much-needed believable character with teenage and adult readers. Charlie Vega is fat and wears glasses, with a diet-push

13、ing mother and a beautiful, athletic best friend. When her classmate Brian pursues a romantic relationship, Charlie is bothered withself doubt.

Kyle Beachy, a longtime skater and writing profes

15、sor, is devoted toexploring the meaning of skateboarding based on relatedessays of a decade.The Secret History of Home Economicsby Danielle DreilingerIts generally thought that home economics is just a class takenat school, which is appropriately named Mrs Housekeeper. But in reading this book, you

16、can discover that in the early 20th century, the field provided jobs for women in science, companies and governments.

20、, hit it with a stick, and sat on it just as they watched the adults do.The above study indicates kids may follow suit if they see what others do. Thats why role models matter. When kids are exposed to role models they can relate to, it helps them set ambitious goals. Dont assume kids know they can

21、be anything they want when they grow up.

22、ended, I sensed Id given an answer the committee found disappointing. “Of course there will be a female president,” they wanted me to say with a confident smile. “And I hope I have your vote.”Like most children, my first role models were in my family.

23、ntless cousins were mostly doctors or scientists. So, if youd asked me in, say, third grade, “Angela, could you become a college professor someday if you tried?” Without a bit of evidence that Id be any good at such acareer, Id have nodded my head.

29、lp build the machinery to make them. She says, “I wanted to use my education in applied physics and materials engineering to do something about plastic waste pollution.

30、te into the construction space and finding the most efficient and affordable material to build homes.”Her company, Gjenge Makers, now hires 112 people and produces over 1,500 bricks a day, which are made using a mix of plastic products that cant be reprocessed or recycled.

Innovative solutions to plastic waste.DMigratory (遷移的) birds are specially adapted to find their way over extreme distances. Now, the new research of

36、Kaspar Delhey and other researchers has discovered an unexpected way that migratory birds keep their cool during such backbreaking journeys: lighter-colored feathers(羽毛).“We found across nearly all species of birds, migratory species tend to be lighter colored than non-migratory species,” said Delhe

37、y. “We think that lighterfeather coloration is selected in migratory species because it reduces the risk of overheating when exposed to sunshine. Lighter surfaces absorb less heat than darker ones, as anybody wearing dark clothes on a sunny day can demonstrate! This would be particularly important f

38、or long-distance migrants that undertake extensive flights during which they cannot stop to rest in the shade.”Delheyand his coworkers had been studying the effects of climate on bird coloration. Their earlier studies showed that, in general, lighter colored birds are found where temperatures are hi

39、gh and there is little shade. Thats in part because the birdslighter feathers help to keep them cooler in the hot sun. Then the researchers came across studies by others showing that some birds fly higher during the day compared to at night.“Because flyinghigher is likely costly, these changes requi

40、re an explanation,”Delhey says. “One possibility was that flying higher, where it is colder, would offset the heat absorbed by thefeathers when the sun was shining.”If so, they realized, another way to reduce the risk of overheating would be to absorb less solar radiation in the first place. It rais

41、ed a question: have migratory speciesevolved(進(jìn)化)lighter feathers?To find out, they did much research. Their findings show bird species get increasingly lighter as they migrate more. So, resident birds tend to be darker than short-distance migrants. Short-distance migrants are darker than bird specie

42、s that travel farther. Delhey said the effect suited different types of birds. The same held true in waterbirds and ground-living birds, too.The findings are another reminder of the important role of temperature and climate factors more broadly in the evolution of shaping thecolorationof animals.
