自由民权

答案

参考答案:自由民权运动日本明治初期发生的以反对专制政治、争取资产阶级民主自由权利为主旨的政治运动。其内容包括要求开设国会、制定宪法、减轻地税、确立地方自治和修改西方列强强加的不平等条约。1874年1月,前政府参议板垣退助和江藤新平、后藤象二郎等人,结成日本最早的政党爱国公党,揭开了自由民权运动的序幕。同年4月,板垣、片冈健吉等人在高知创立立志社。

此后,九州、四国等地纷纷建立民权组织。1875年2月上述自由民权派组织以立志社为中心在大阪成立了全国性的结社——爱国社。但早期民权运动显示出士族民权的局限性。1877年6月立志社代表向天皇进呈建议书,系统地提出开设国会、减轻地税、修改不平等条约等3大要求。以此为转机,自由民权运动逐步发展为全国规模的政治运动。面对声势浩大的自由民权运动,明治政府十分恐慌,兼施 * * 和收买手段,分化、瓦解自由民权运动。不久,运动发生分裂。

You either have it, or you don’t—a sense of direction, that is. But why is that some people would find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?

Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory(理论) is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t have it, we lose it.

“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of this project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”

Jim Martland also emphasized(强调) that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:

If you are using a map, turn it to the way you are facing.

If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.

The simple way of finding your direction is by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help you find out where you are.

Now you will never get lost again!
