　　 1. 澳大利亚：“魔法苹果”切开不变黄
　　 Australian scientists have come up with an apple that does not go brown when cut. Unlike most apples, which go brown almost immediately, the fruit stays a pale pink colour for several hours after it is exposed to air. 澳大利亚科学家培育出了一种切开后不会变黄的苹果。大多数苹果切开后很快就会变黄，但这种苹果在与空气接触几个小时后仍能保持淡粉色。
　　
　　 2. 电脑键盘比马桶座还脏
　　 Think twice before eating those dropped crumbs off your computer keyboard - you might as well be eating off a toilet seat, according to a new study on the amount of germs on keyboards. 一项有关电脑键盘上细菌数量的最新研究称，以后捡起落在键盘上的食物碎屑往嘴里塞之前可得想好了，这跟从马桶座上捡东西吃差不多。
　　
　　 3. 新型人字拖让胖腿烦恼去无踪
　　 The innovative flip flops, dubbed "FitFlops", are designed to help tone and trim your legs by engaging muscles for a longer period of time with each step. Designers say that the specially-engineered sandals absorb shock and reduce the danger of sufferings joint strain. 被称为“FitFlops”的创新型人字拖主要是通过每走一步都使腿部肌肉得到更多锻炼，从而使腿部线条变得更加匀称优美。设计师们称，这款特别设计的凉拖可以减震并能减少关节扭伤的风险。
　　
　　 4. 瑞士：植物也有尊严 岂能随意践踏
　　 Plants deserve respect, a group of Swiss experts said, arguing that killing them arbitrarily was morally wrong ― except when it comes to saving humans or maybe picking the petals off a daisy. 瑞士有关专家称，植物也应得到尊重，肆意伤害花草是不道德行为――不过为了保护人类而采取的涉及植物的行为除外，或者采几片雏菊花瓣可能也无妨。
　　
　　 5. 德国13岁男孩为美国宇航局纠错
　　 A 13-year-old German schoolboy corrected NASA's estimates on the chances of an asteroid colliding with Earth, a German newspaper reported, after spotting the boffins had miscalculated. NASA told its sister organization, the European Space Agency (ESA), that the young whizzkid had got it right. 德国一家报纸报道，德国一名13岁男孩发现并纠正了美国宇航局有关一颗小行星与地球相撞几率的计算错误。美国宇航局告知其“兄弟”机构欧洲航天局这个“小神童”的计算结果是正确的。
　　
　　 6. 研究：孩子饮食健康 学习成绩优异
　　 Kids who eat better perform better in school, a new study of Nova Scotia fifth-graders confirms. Students who ate an adequate amount of fruit, vegetables, protein, fiber and other components of a healthy diet were significantly less likely to fail a literacy test. 一项对新斯科舍省五年级小学生开展的研究证实，饮食习惯好的孩子学习成绩也比较好。饮食健康，摄入足量水果、蔬菜、蛋白质和纤维等营养成分的学生读写测试不及格的可能性较低。
