But how could I feel the joy when the snow was four feet deep and I had months of painful physical treatmen

17、t ahead?I was doing the dishes one day, feeling hopeless when there was a tap against the glass. It was a branch of the troublesome cottonwood （棉白杨）. Back in the fall of 1979, it was a new subdivision （细枝）then. The people whod briefly occupied the house before us had placed the pipe from the pump ne

18、xt to it. The earth was so wet that the poor thing had fallen down, most of its bare root system pointing skyward, blowing hopelessly back and forth in the cold wind.

19、f the earth. It deserves a chance.Dick borrowed some tools. We packed dry soil around the tree and put up some stakes （桩） into the ground, making it stand upright. That winter was still terrible.

24、your phone out of your pocket, thinking it is vibrating （振动）, only to find that it isnt? This phenomenon, which scientists call phantom （幻觉的） phone vibration, is very common. Around 80% of people surveyed say they have imagined their phones vibrating when they were actually still. So, what leads to

25、this universal behavior? According to the BBC, the explanation lies in your brains ability to discover signals from the outside world. When your phone is in your pocket, there are two possible states: it is either vibrating or not. Meanwhile, you also have two possible states of mind: the judgment t

26、hat the phone is vibrating, or that it isnt. Ideally, you match the four states correctly. However, sometimes your brain decides that the consequences of missing a call are more serious than a false alarm. Therefore, you become more sensitive to vibrations so that you dont miss anything.

You get a large amount of sensory information thats coming from your eyes, ears and skin, and you cant deal with all that information all the time, Michael Rothberg, a researcher at Baystate M

29、edical Center in Springfield, US, told Live Science.

So, perhaps you
