When I asked my mother-in-law to select which meals she'd like me to order from the home-delivery menue wants.
It's not just older women who have this problem.Asker's Syndrome can strike the young.I have single friends who won't ask a man out on a date because they fear being considered “too forward”.My five-year-old daughter Violet is showing the early stages of Asker's Syndrome.She's learned that women don't ask?” rather than “Can we go to the park?”tite,food and dating,it's widely reported that women are less likely than men to ask for pay rises and promotions.Instead,they withdraw,hoping that somebody else will decide they are worthy and make them promoted.
No doubt,many women develop Asker's Syndrome as a defensive measure because they've been labeled as pushy or rude for simply asking for what they want.But in the long term,choosing not to express our desires doesn't serve us well.
It's time
to cure ourselves and
our girls of Asker's Syndrome.I don't want to raise a future “mother” who denies her wish for food,power and success and anything else.So I now insist that my daughter ask for what she wants directly.
For women in our culture,asking is a skill that we need to learn and practice.And if we all do it,then women asking will become the norm rather than the exception.

Climate change has been blamed for killer hurricanes,sea level rise,and drought,but a new report suggests the effects of climate change might hit the world's coffee supply.Up to 70 percent of the world's coffee supply could be threatened over the next 66 years,according to a new study by researchers at England's Royal Botanic Garden.
Nearly 100 percent of the world's arabica coffee growing regions could become
unsuitable
for the
plant by 2080,according to the study.Beans from arabica coffee plants account for about 70 percent of the world's coffee,but the plant has to be grown under strict weather conditions: they thrive at temperatures between 64 and 70 degrees Celsius,and are highly influenced by frost or temperatures higher than 73 degrees Celsius.
With temperatures estimated to increase by between 1.8 and 4 degrees Celsius by the end of the century,the fragile plant might become increasingly expensive and difficult to grow,especially in places such as Ethiopia and Kenya.In that worst case,nearly all of the world's native arabica coffee would die out.Under more conservative estimates,about 65 percent of the regions that used to grow the coffee would become unsuitable for it.The evidence from coffee farmers,from numerous coffee growing regions around the world,is that they are already suffering the influences of increased warming.
Some commercial farmers would likely be able to move their operations to other areas or would be able to overcome climate change with artificial cooling techniques,but wild arabica is generally considered to be much more suitable for making high-quality coffee.(造成破坏) on the economies of the mainly third-world countries in which it grows.Coffee is the world's most popular drink and is the second most-traded commodity in the world【语篇解读】 本文是一篇研究报告主要介绍了气候变化对世界咖啡产量的影响尤其是对小粒咖啡的影响。What does the passage mainly talk about?
