Talk about bouncing back. MIT professor Moungi Bawendi is a co-winner of this year’s Nobel chemistry prize for helping develop "quantum dots". But as an undergraduate, he flunked his very first chemistry exam, recalling that the experience nearly "destroyed" him.

來說說挽回頹勢。麻省理工學院教授蒙吉．巴汶帝因協助開發「量子點」，成為今年諾貝爾化學獎共同獲獎者，但是在大學時期，他第一次的化學考試就不及格，他回憶那次的經驗幾乎「毀了」他。

Eight people spent the night in an unheated train in chilly northern Japan after the vehicle hit a bear, authorities said Wednesday, as the country grapples with a rise in bear-related incidents.

當局週三表示，在寒冷的日本北部，汽車撞上一隻熊後，有8人在一列沒有暖氣的火車上過夜，目前該國正努力因應與熊有關的事件增加的問題。

The number of bear attacks on people is sharply higher this year, with experts blaming a poor acorn harvest forcing the animals to search farther afield for food ahead of winter hibernation.
