Percy was born in 1899 in Alabama. Because he was African American, he couldn’t go to the same schools as white children. The schools he went to did not teach science. And yet, he became greatly interested in the science of chemistry.After college, Percy wanted to go to graduate school so he could become a chemist. But one school after another turned him down because of his skin color. Finally, Harvard University accepted him. He got his master’s degree (硕士学位) in 1923. Then he went to Europe. In 1931, Percy became Dr. Percy Julian, doctor of chemistry.For the rest of his life, Dr. Julian worked with chemicals (化学物质) found in plants. He knew that some plants had chemicals that could heal (治愈) people. So he created those same chemicals in a lab. That meant more people could get the medicines they needed. He developed chemicals that treated people with eye diseases and ease the pain that some people had in their bones. Dr. Julian also used chemicals to invent many new products.After working at a company in Chicago for many years, Dr. Julian opened his own lab. Then he started a school that trained young people to be chemists. Dr. Percy Julian died in 1975. Today, his discoveries (发现)continue to help millions of people.24.

Many companies make rules. They ask workers not to come late or leave early. But in the future, there may be no offices anymore. People will have meetings through the Internet instead of sitting in the same room. Workplaces and time will be far more flexible. To meet their needs, employees can have flexible start and finish times or work at home.Citrix, a leader company in mobile technology, released a report last month.

By the time, 29 percent of people will no longer work in a traditional office. They will do their work at home, in hotels or in coffee shops. The trend that fewer employees will work in the office is called the mobile work style. “Mobile” means to move. A quarter of companies around the world have taken up this work style.For employees, a mobile work style allows people to make use of their time and workplace freely. It helps cut their traveling fees and makes for a better balance between work and play. For companies, the new work style saves them money. However, as workers may connect their companies in different ways at different places, employers need to pay more attention to protecting their date(数据) and information.Mick Hollison, vice president of Citrix, is a supporter of the mobile work style idea. “The result of a mobile work style is a stronger organization (机构) with high ability people doing their best.” he said to the Investor’s Business Daily.27.
