The dream of personalised flight is still vivid in the minds of many inventors, some developing cycle-powered craft, others money into jetpacks (喷气飞行背包). However, the flying car has always remained the symbol of personal transport freedom. Several companies around the world have produced that can drive on roads and fly. Airbus has a futuristic modular (组件式的) concept involving a passenger capsule that can be from the road-going chassis (底盘) and picked up by a helicopter-type machine. But all these concepts are massively expensive, require safety certification standards for road and air, need _ controls, involve complex folding wings and propellers, and have to be flown from air-strips. So they are likely to remain rich people’s playthings rather than practical transport solutions for the masses. “A car that takes off from some London street and lands in another street is unlikely to happen,” says Prof. Gray, a leading aeronautical engineer. “Sky taxis are much more likely.” But that won’t stop inventors from dreaming up new ways to fly and trying to persuade investors to back their sometimes _ schemes. Civilian aviation is being disrupted, not by the age-old desires for speed, romanticism and , but by the pressing need to respond to a changing climate. New electric engines coupled with artificial intelligence and systems will contribute to a more efficient, integrated transport system that is less polluting and less noisy. That may sound simple, but as Prof. Gray says, “When I travel somewhere I like this notion that when I finish my journey I feel better than when I started it. That’s completely at with how I feel today.” Now that would be progress.

When considering risk factors associated with serious chronic diseases, we often think about health indicators such as cholesterol, blood pressure, and body weight. But poor diet and physical inactivity also each increase the risk of heart disease and have a role to play in the development of some cancers. Perhaps worse, the _ effects of an unhealthy diet and insufficient exercise are not limited to your body. Recent research has also shown that in a high-fat and high-sugar diet may have negative effects on your brain, causing learning and memory . Studies have found obesity is associated with impairments in cognitive functioning, as by a range of learning and memory tests, such as the ability to remember a list of words presented some minutes or hours earlier. There is also a growing body of evidence that diet-induced cognitive impairments can emerge —within weeks or even days. For example, one study found healthy adults to a high-fat diet for five days showed impaired attention, memory, and mood compared with a low-fat diet control group. Another study also found eating a high-fat and highsugar breakfast each day for as little as four days resulted in problems with learning and memory _ to those observed in overweight and obese individuals. Body weight was not hugely different between the groups eating a healthy diet and those on high fat and sugar diets. So this shows negative of poor dietary intake can occur even when body weight has not changed _. Thus, body weight is not always the best indicator of health and a thin person still needs to eat well and exercise .

The idea of taxing things that are bad for society has a powerful allure. It offers the possibility of a double benefit— harmful activities, while also providing the government with revenue. Take sin taxes. Taxes on alcohol make it more expensive to get drunk, which reduces excessive drinking and driving. At the same time, they provide state and local governments with billions of dollars of revenue. Tobacco taxes, which generate more than twice as much, have proven in the decline of smoking, which has saved millions of lives. Taxes can also be an important tool for environmental protection, and many economists say taxing carbon would be the best way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Economic theory says that unlike income or sales taxes, carbon taxes can actually increase economic efficiency; because companies that __ _ carbon dioxide into the sky don’t pay the costs of the climate change they cause, carbon taxes would restore the proper to the market. In reality, carbon taxes alone won’t be enough to halt global warming, but they would be a useful part of any climate plan. What’s more, the revenue from this tax, which would be hundreds of billions of dollars per year, could be handed out to citizens as a or used to fund green infrastructure projects. Similarly, a wealth tax has been put forward as a way to reduce inequality while raising revenue. The revenue from this tax, which some experts will be over $4 trillion per decade, would be designated for housing, child care, health care and other government benefits. If you believe, as many do, that wealth inequality is bad, then these taxes improve society while also government coffers (金库).
