她所做的研究,专注于DNA、病毒、煤炭与石墨等物质的结构。

其中她所拍摄的DNA晶体衍射图片“照片51号”,以及关于此物质的相关数据,是詹姆斯·华生与佛朗西斯·克里克解出DNA结构的关键线索。

此后她也领导了关于烟草花叶病毒与小儿麻痹病毒的研究。

1958年,富兰克林因支气管肺炎及卵巢癌逝世。

2003年,伦敦国王学院将一栋新大楼命名为“罗莎琳—威尔金斯馆”以纪念她与同事莫里斯·威尔金斯的贡献。

富兰克林在1941年顺利完成大学学业,但是由于当时的剑桥大学并不授与女性“文学士”(BA Cantab.)学位,因此富兰克林只拥有一个“名义上的学位”(decree titular)。

富兰克林的自律十三条英文

富兰克林的自律十三条英文

富兰克林的自律十三条英文Title: The 13 Virtues of Benjamin Franklin: A Path to Personal GrowthIn the annals of personal development and ethical living, few documents have influenced thinking as profoundly as "The 13 Virtues" outlined by Benjamin Franklin in his autobiography. These virtues serve as a moral compass, guiding individuals toward a life of discipline, respect, and continual self-improvement. This essay delves into the essence of each virtue, reflecting on their contemporary relevance and application in our complex world.Temperance heads Franklin's list, urging moderation in all aspects of life, from food and drink to entertainment and spending. It advocates for balance, steering us away from extremes that can lead to physical, financial, or emotional distress. In a consumerist society where instant gratification is highly prized, practicing temperance encourages a more thoughtful and sustainable lifestyle.Franklin's second virtue, silence, promotes the idea of speaking only when it adds value or encourages others. In an age dominated by digital platforms and incessant information, cultivating silence can foster deeper listening skills andprevent needless misunderstandings or conflicts.Orderliness, the third virtue, underscores the importance of organization and cleanliness in one's environment. By maintaining order in our surroundings, we create a physical space that supports mental clarity and efficiency, translating to better productivity and peace of mind.Resolution follows, advocating for decisiveness and proactive goal-setting. In a world rife with distractions and constant change, this virtue encourages us to set clear objectives and pursue them with determination, preventing stagnation and confusion.Frugality, Franklin's fifth virtue, champions simplicity and resourcefulness. It speaks directly to the modern challenge of sustainability, promoting a lifestyle that values utility over luxury and wastefulness.Industry, the sixth virtue, celebrates hard work and perseverance. It reminds us that success often stems from consistent effort and dedication rather than mere talent or luck.Sincerity, the seventh virtue, calls for authenticity and honesty in our interactions. Amid the curated façades prevalent on social media, sincerity demands that we remaintrue to ourselves and others, fostering genuine connections and trust.Franklin's eighth virtue, justice, implores impartiality and fairness in our judgments. It challenges us to base our decisions on merit and fact rather than prejudice or personal biases.Moderation, the ninth virtue, echoes temperance but applies specifically to physical exercise and the care of one's health. It advises against extremes in dietary or fitness routines, promoting a balanced approach to well-being.Cleanliness, the tenth virtue, emphasizes personal hygiene and tidiness. In a time when health has become paramount, cleanliness not only boosts personal morale but also respects the well-being of those around us.Tranquility, Franklin's eleventh virtue, advocates for an even-tempered disposition and the avoidance of unnecessary tension or anxiety. It suggests a mindful approach to stress, seeking peaceful resolutions rather than reacting impulsively.Chastity, as the twelfth virtue, promotes sexual responsibility and respect in relationships. It speaks to the importance of consent, mutual respect, and the sanctity of emotional bonds.Finally, humility, Franklin's thirteenth virtue, reminds us of the value of modesty and openness to criticism. It counters the ego-driven culture prevalent on social platforms, encouraging self-reflection, continuous learning, and a willingness to acknowledge our shortcomings.In conclusion, Benjamin Franklin's 13 Virtues offer timeless wisdom for those seeking to live a principled and fulfilling life. They resonate deeply in today's world, providing a framework for navigating the complexities of modern society with integrity and purpose. By embodying these virtues, we not only elevate our personal character but also contribute to the betterment of our communities and the world at large.。
