At 26, Jane Goodall had no college education or science training. But since childhood, she had been dreaming of working closely with animals in Africa. “All through my childhood people said you can’t go to Africa. You’re a girl,” Goodall says. “But my mother used to say, if you really want to, there’s nothing you can’t do.”
In 1957, the 26-year-old Goodall journeyed to Kenya to work as a secretary. She also arranged to meet the famous scientist Louis Leakey, who was so impressed by her enthusiasm that he hired her as his assistant. She went with him on many trips to the African jungle and in 1960 Leakey sent Goodall to live among chimpanzees (黑猩猩) in a remote animal preserve (禁猎地), recording the animals’ behavior and interactions.
For three months Goodall made little progress. But she says, “1 never came close to giving up.” Her breakthrough came one day when she saw a male chimpanzee stick a blade of grass into a termite (白蚁) hill, then put the grass in his mouth. Afterward she approached the hill and did the same. Pulling the grass out, she discovered dozens of termites clinging to it. The discovery — that some animals use tools — was unknown to most scientists at the time.
Goodall saw chimpanzees exhibit human-like emotions, such as jealousy and love. But she also discovered they were capable of violent attacks against each other.
Goodall received her Ph. D in the study of animal behavior at England’s Cambridge University. Now she travels around the globe raising money to preserve wildlife. “I love being in the forest with the chimps,” she says. “I’d much rather be there than traveling around from city to city.”

Safe Online Shopping
Shopping for clothes can be fun and easy in a well-designed online store open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. As you shop, however, you may worry about never getting what you paid for, the stealing of your credit card number, or unwittingly sharing your private information — or worse. And then there are dangers that you may never have imagined, such as downloading spyware. Follow the guidelines below to help reduce your risk of being cheated, and make shopping online the good time it can be.
If you have never shopped online before, you may be at a loss as to where to begin. Portal pages such as shopping.msn.com are a great starting point because they often have specific pages for shopping.
Make sure you are buying from a business you can trust to deliver the clothes. If you do not know the business by reputation, do a little research first.
Keep your personal information private.
Of course, online merchants are in the business of selling you clothes, but they may also be in the business of collecting information about you and your browsing and shopping habits — in part to make your shopping experience more convenient, and in part because they want to sell you more. Here are some guidelines for keeping the balance in your favor.
What do online merchants ask for?
Some of the information merchants gather — credit card number, address and telephone number, and so on — is necessary to complete the transaction. Some personal information — what you purchase, shipping address, clothing sizes, for example — may allow the merchant to fit your experience to your preferences when you shop next time. Or, it can save you the work of retyping.
Finally, many online stores propose to send you special offers or inform you of related products and services from other companies. That can often mean sharing or selling your name, your e-mail address, and perhaps other information to companies whose privacy policies you will not have the opportunity to review.
Some web sites ask for information up front in forms you fill out or offer choices you make by checking boxes. However, some information is taken behind the scenes through the use of cookies. And freebies, such as free trials, are becoming a popular way to plant spyware on computers.
What can you do to help protect yourself?
Make sure you do not give out sensitive information unless it is necessary to complete the transaction, and make sure that the site is responsible about using and sharing the information you do give.
First, review the privacy statement before you shop. A privacy statement tells you how and why a business is collecting your information, and how it plans to use it. Ideally it will be written in a clear, straightforward manner. Look for the privacy policy or statement at the very bottom of the home page, if not every page. You may also find it within a site’s “Terms & Conditions” or “Terms of Use”. As an example, you can click to review Microsoft’s Privacy Statement on the Microsoft web site.
Second, be careful about the personal information you disclose. Before you reveal any information, ask yourself if the web site needs it. Address and credit card number will most likely be required, but only on a secure page. But watch out for giving your social security number, bank account number, or other such information. If a question seems too invasive, skip it. If the merchant then prevents you from shopping, take your business elsewhere.
Finally, check those boxes. When you set up an account or finalize a sale at check out, put on those magnifying eyeglasses, and carefully review any checks in boxes. Some sites assume the right to share your info奥鹏教育南开大学平时作业rmation and check the boxes for you. Responsible web sites will give you a way to choose not to take part.
