Choosing a roommate is not always as easy as it's expected to be.
When I lefl for college, I was forced to live with a total stranger for the first time — I'm the only child in my family. I'd go to bed early for a class beginning at 8:00 am and my roommate would turn on the lights, leave the door open and invite friends over after I'd be trying to sleep. After a month, I changed the room.
Over four years I managed to have six roommates in total. The one that was my least favorite was my old friend. This is common. Friends think that because they get along so well, sharing a room or an apartment should be OK. But the fact that they don't share a room or an apartment is part of the reason why they get along so well. That separation of space, at the end of the day, can be the friendship saver.
college with the same friends you went in with. S. ome people I knew when I was in college all went to the same high school and all of them lived together in college. By the time we graduated, they were still living together and had not really made any new friends.
More often than not, I've seen friendships end by the decision to become roommates. Two friends of mine were friends when they went into college and shared a room but hardly spoke to each other by the end of the school year.
My advice: move out and make a new friend.

Variations(变化) caused by the body's 24-hour clock may mean that it offers more protection from harmful UV rays in the early hours than later on in the day.
A study on mice, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal, found that their vulnerability to UV light depended on the time of the day.
The body's levels of a protein called XPA, which helps repair the DNA that has been damaged by UV light, change over the course of 24 hours. Researchers found
that mice were five times more likely to develop cancer when exposed to UV light at 4:00 am, when their XPA levels were the lowest, while at 4:00 pm they reached their peak.
Humans and mice have almost the same biological clocks which.are tied to a 24-hour cycle, This means that if the same variation in protection from the sun occurs in humans as in mice, the effect would be the opposite, giving us more protection during the moming and less in the afternoon.
Dr Aziz Sancar of the University of North Carolina, who led the research, said,
Dr Kat Amcy of Cancer Research UK said,

Of all the planets, none has captured the world's imagination like Mars. Its reddish color and changes in brightness over time make the planet an unforgettable sight.
In Cosmos, the television science series from the 1980s, scientist Carl Sagan talked about some traditional ideas about Mars. Some of these ideas are from the English science fiction writer H.G. Wells' The War of ihe Worlds. Others are from the mistaken science of Percival Lowell, the American astronomer who believed intelligent beings lived on Mars. Wells described Martians as threatening. Lowell imagined them as the hopeful engineers of great works. Carl Sagan said that both ideas influenced the public deeply.
Today, Mars continues to excite humans — not as the object of science fiction but of scientific study. Space scientists have collected a wealth of information from spacecrafts that have orbited, landed on and dug into theMartian surface.

The largest conference on AIDS vaccine (疫苗) development is being held in Bangkok, Thailand. Organizers of the conference said,
In recrnt months, the public has tutned their attemion on AIDS vaccine research to what's happening in prevention. Studies show that antiretroviral drugs, when taken by an infected person, can prevent HIV transmission (传染) to a non-infected person. They also show that non-HIV-infected people can take the drugs as a preventive measure.
But while there have been prevention advances, vaccine researchers are beginning new work to find what are called broadly neutralizing antibodies (杭体). If successful, they would be able to block the many, many different strains of HIV that now exist.
Warren, head of the AIDS Vaccine Advocacy Coalition (AVAC), said there was success in 2009 of the RV-144 trial in Thailand. It proved that an AIDS vaccine is possible. It was the largest AIDS vaccine trial ever, with thousands of people taking part in it.
