  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that over 50,000 people every year sustain some sort of winter-related back injury, and 5,800 of those are holiday decorating-related. These aches and pains can __41__ bring trouble to people’s life. It is said that people’s back could sustain all sorts of strain from carrying heavy __42__ , and from the increased stress of lugging suitcases, decorations and gifts. Dr. Alanna Levine spoke to Debbye Turner Bell on “The Early Show” about how to protect the back for the holiday season.
  The first tip Dr. Levine gave was about carrying heavy shopping bags. Smaller bags, she said, are better. “You don’t want to load everything up into one bag and lug it around,” Dr. Levine explained. “You want to __43__ the weight on your body.” She also recommended putting heavier items towards the bottom in those bags and lighter items on top. Also, if you can, make    __44__ trips to the car to drop off purchases.
  Travel can be another pain in the back — from carrying heavy luggage. Again, Dr. Levine    __45__ not to pack everything into one bag. Even though it may cost more, she said that packing two smaller bags is safer than packing one heavy one. Also, choose a light-weight bag, so that the only weight you’re carrying is the __46__ inside the suitcase.
  When __47__ bags from an airport carousel, Dr. Levine suggests standing close to the carousel and bending your knees to lift it up. “You want to avoid that reach-and-lift. It puts a lot of    __48__ on your lower back,” she said.
  When it comes to holiday decorating, people can get __49__. Dr. Levine suggests decorating in pairs, so one person can hand the lights and ornaments to the other person to hang, as to avoid reaching or twisting to get what you need.

神奇的“提丢斯-波德”定则

提丢斯-波得定则(Titius-Bode law),简称“波得定律”,是关于太阳系中行星轨道的一个简单的几何学规则。 它是在1766年德国的一位中学教师戴维·提丢斯(Johann Daniel Titius)发现的。后来被柏林天文台的台长波得(Johann Elert Bode)归纳成了一个经验公式来表示。

(1)日地距离149.6×106千米被称为1个天文单位。把其它行星距日的距离用天文单位表示,填在下表中:

 水星金星地球火星木星土星天王星海王星
距太阳的距离

(106千米)

57.9108.2149.6227.9778.01472.02870.04496.0
天文单位  1     
(2)1766年,德国的提丢斯提出,行星同太阳平均距离的经验定律。取一数列0,3,6 ,12,24,48,96,192……,然后将每个数加上4,再除以10,就可以近似地得到以天文单位表示的各个行星同太阳的平均距离。(此时人们只知道太阳系中有水星、金星、火星、木星、土星五大行星)。请按公式计算,并将结果与上表比较,你发现了什么问题,知道可能为什么吗?

(3)1772年德国的波得,在提丢斯的基础上,公开发表所总结的公式:an=0.4+0.3×2n-2,式中an是以天文单位表示的第n颗行星离太阳的平均距离,n是离太阳由近及远的次序(但水星n=-∞为例外)。1781 年,英国天文学赫歇耳宣布,他在无意中发现了太阳系的第七大行星—天王星。请按公式计算,并将结果与上表比较,符合程度如何?

(4)请按上述任一公式计算海王星,结果与实际情况符合程度如何?提丢斯-波德定则到底有何意义,随着时间的流逝,人们已渐渐淡忘了它,但不管怎样,提丢斯-波德定的理论成为了人们孜孜以求的世纪之谜......
