their agents or the studio powers.
The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root
in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV . We were respectful of craft 〔技艺〕 and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other — but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core 〔核心〕 of our relationship off the screen.
We shared the brief that if you’ re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something—hewithback
his Newman’ s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me withSundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’ t see each otherzxxall.thatkbutregularly,sharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.

Terrafugia Inc .said Monday that its new flying
car has completed its first flight,bringing
the company
closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year.The wehicle-named the Transition–has two seats wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car.The Transition,which gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.
Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and
those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’ s expected to cost $279,000.And won’ t help if you’ re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.
Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry
expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The
flew at 1,400 feet for eight
minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the flies using a 23-gallon tank of

govemment has already permitted z&xxkthe company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle
to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety siandards.
Mann said Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administratione years ’agos detocreateisionfiv
a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those for pilots of larger planes. Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and
complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition,a requirement pilots would find relatively easy to meet.

When a leafy plant is under attack ， it doesn ’ tsit quietly. Back in 1983,two scientists,Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin,reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plantand seem to be an alarm.What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds,VOCs for short.
Scientists have found t hat all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It’ s a plant’ s out.But is anyone listening?Apparently.Because we can watch the neighbours react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.But others do double duty .They

attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
In study after study,it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors .The damage is usually more serious on the first plant,but the neighbors ,relatively speaking ,stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don ’tknow. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happe ned to ― overhear the‖cry. So information was exchanged, but itwasn’tatrue, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密
