Dialogue in the Dark
Dialogue in the Dark is an amazing exhibition found across the world and, at this moment, in Hong Kong!
●The Main Idea
Dialogue in the Dark is a social business that sets up exhibitions （展览） to raise awareness （意识）for blind and disabled people around the world. At a Dialogue in the Dark exhibition, visitors can experience the life of a blind man. Blind tour guides lead small groups on a short journey in complete darkness. Visitors walk through specially designed rooms. Each one changes according to the smells sounds, wind, and temperature of daily life. For example, visitors may "travel" to a dark room that seems like a park.
●Giving Back
Dialogue in the Dark also provides jobs for blind people. Often, the guides in the exhibit would have difficulty finding a job elsewhere because of a low job market for blind workers.
At Dialogue in the Dark, the jobs are designed especially for those who cannot see! This worldwide exhibition has provided over 7,000 jobs for blind individuals.
●The Beginning
Dialogue in the Dark had its grand opening in Hong Kong in 2010. Since then, it has attracted tourists and natives alike to walk through and enjoy the exhibition.
●Open Hours
The hours of the exhibit are from 12 pm to 5 pm on Monday - Thursday and 12 pm to 8 pm on Friday.
●Address
Shop 215, 2/F, The Household Center, Nob Hill, No. 8 King Lai Path, Mei Foo, Kowloon
Since it is within the city of Hong Kong, visitors can ride public transportation to Dialogue in the Dark or use their own transportation.

Where did humans come from? An Australian researcher believes that she’s found the answer: river valley in the African country of Botswana (博瓦纳).
Professor Vanessa Hayes from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Sydney said she and her team have traced (追踪) modern humans back to small group of people who lived in this valley, according to the BBC.
“It’s an extremely large area, it would have been very lush (苍翠繁茂的), and it would have actually provided a suitable habitat for modern humans,” she said. She and her team studied mitochondrial (线粒体的) DNA (mtDNA) from people who live in south Africa, such as the Khoisan people. This type of DNA is only passed down from mother to child. This makes it easier to trace one’s ancestry (祖先), according to Business Insider. By tracing mtDNA back through different generations, the team concluded that every person alive today is related to a woman who lived in Botswana.
However, some experts doubt Hayes’ findings, saying that studies like hers are no longer important or necessary. “The idea that we’re looking for a single origin [of modern humans] is out of fashion,” said John Hawks, a researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, US, in Popular Science.
There are many other locations around the world where humans could have gotten their start. It is likely that mankind appeared in many places at the same time. “I increasingly think that there probably wasn’t a single population in which modern humans evolved (进化). If that is the case, there is no ‘homeland’,” said Ryan Raaum, who researches African population genetics (遗传学) at Lehman College, US.

2.Hayes and her team studied mtDNA because ________.

C.it is only passed down from mother to child D.both women and men can take mtDNA tests
3.According to Hawks, Hayes’s study is ________.
A.important B.wrong C.fascinating D.unnecessary
4.What is the story mainly about?
A.New findings about the origin of humans. B.New findings about mtDNA.
C.The evolution of humans. D.The habitats of ancient humans..
