We recently asked subscribers of the BuzzFeed Books newsletter to tell us about

a book that changed their lives. There’s something here for everyone, so take your

pick — and get ready to be inspired.

All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

This is a book about the story of an unlikely friendship between Finch, who's

fascinated with dying, and Violet, who's living for the future in the wake of her sister's

death. Both have much to learn from each other. All the Bright Places really shows

that, no matter what tragedy or hardship you may have faced, you eventually just have

to get back out there and live your life. —Mikaila C.

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+, Barnes and Noble for $8.49, or a local

bookseller through IndieBound.

Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

As an American-Nigerian, this book spoke to me on so many levels — from the

simple joy of a text interspersed with the language of my parents, to the struggle of

understanding race in terms of the world beyond America. I highly recommend

it.—Chikodili Agwuna

Get it from Amazon for $10.99+, Barnes and Noble for $13.07, or a local

bookseller through IndieBound.

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Growing up without family to turn to during adolescence, I felt every pain and

loneliness that the prince experienced. But The Little Prince taught me to make

friends and value them by looking into their hearts — not just into what they

projected in public. —Erika, Chicago

Get it from Amazon for $6.51+, Barnes and Noble for $7.51, or a local

bookseller through IndieBound.'

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

This is the story of two Afghan women who find their lives connected forever. It

taught me about the struggles of womanhood, as well as the power and strength of

sisterhood, and proves that not all love stories have to be romantic.—Susan M.

Get it from Amazon for $5.43+, Barnes and Noble for $10.94, or a local bookseller

through IndieBound.

Lamarr had a natural curiosity about the world around her. As young as age 5,

she would spend time taking apart and rebuilding her music box to understand how it

worked. But her technical mind was overshadowed by her looks-at 16, she got her

first film role and quickly became an international icon.

As her acting career continued to take off during World War II, Lamarr became

restless, feeling that she should do more to contribute to the Allies' war efforts.

Together with her friend Antheil, Lamarr came up with a groundbreaking new form of

wireless communication known as spread spectrum(光谱).The concept was to create a

wireless signal that could hop from frequency to frequency, making it impossible to

track or jam.They received a patent for their technology in 1942, but the military

refused to implement(实施) it in their war effort.

The technology sat unused for years, until one day the military revived it in the

1960s and the system "spread like wildfire."It became the backbone of Bluetooth,

Wi-Fi, GPS and a range of wireless communication mechanisms we rely on today.By

the time the technology was implemented, Lamarr's patent had been due, and she

never received a single payment for her revolutionary invention.

Hedy Lamarr played the role she was expected to play in Hollywood — a

beautiful object to admire on the big screen.If she yielded to society's expectations in

other ways, communication as we know it could look completely different today.

4.What was special about Hedy Lamarr?

B.She was a naughty girl when she was young.

C.She was gracefully beautiful as well as scientifically intellectual.

As a Hollywood film star in the 1930s and 1940s, Hedy Lamarr at one point

was called "the most beautiful woman in the world." What she was less known for

was her scientific intellect.

D.She decide to quit her acting career after World War II broke out.

5.What was the main reason for Lamarr to invent spread spectrum?

A.She was no longer a popular actress.

B.She wanted to make some contribution to the Allies' war efforts.

C.She was out of condition and couldn’t continue her acting career.

D.Her friend Antheil asked her to do so.

6.When did Lamarr’s patent come into use ?

A.During World War II B. In 1942 C. In the 1960s D.In recent years

7.Why did the author write the text?

A.To remember a great inventor.

B.To introduce an invention.

C.To encourage women to invent.

D.To stress the importance of Lamarr’s invention.

If your fingers get chilly all year round—even in the peak of summer—you’re

not alone. Many people get cold hands during all of the seasons, due to a number of

causes, from genetic to chronic illnesses.

Common reasons include being elderly and thin. If your hands are regularly cold

or numb, however, it’s a good idea to see a doctor to rule out more serious causes.

Cold hands are one of the symptoms of both anemia(贫血症) and hypothyroidism(甲

状腺机能减退). Diabetes, which reduces blood circulation, can also trigger it. And if

your heart is weak from heart disease, your body may prioritize sending blood to your

core over your limbs.

For many others, cold hands are a sign they have a largely harmless condition

called Raynaud’s disease. When any of us goes out in the cold, our bodies activate the

muscles in our smallest blood vessels to make them even smaller—a survival

mechanism to keep blood, and thus warmer temperatures, in our core. For people with

Raynaud’s, this reaction is too strong, and instead of just a bit less blood going to their

fingers, far too little gets there.

Raynaud’s is more common in women, and it most often develops before the age

of 30. In fact, if you develop Raynaud’s when you’re older—usually after 40—it can

be a sign of another underlying issue. That could be a smaller problem—a previous

incident of frostbite( 冻伤 ) or a sign of a more serious autoimmune condition,

like lupus(狼疮).

For the majority of people living with Raynaud’s, medication won’t be necessary.

However, a rare, more severe form of Raynaud’s affects less than one in 1,000 people.

In these cases, blood can become completely blocked, causing sores on the hands. If

they go untreated, it can lead to gangrene(坏疽) and, very rarely, amputation(截肢).

8.What’s the purpose of paragraph 1?

A.introduce a topic B. present an argument

C.describe the characters D.clarify his writing purpose

9. According to the text, which of the following is not the cause of cold hands?

A.diabetes B. heart disease C.aging D.obesity
