News Plus慢速英语:调查称中国人对世界未来最乐观 实验动物管理条例进行修订

This is NEWS Plus Special English. I'm Mark Griffiths in Beijing. Here is the news.
A recent survey has found that Chinese people are almost twice as optimistic about the world as those from other countries, while Britons are the fifth most pessimistic.
British polling company YouGov surveyed more than 18,000 people in 17 countries. It found that 41 percent of internet users in China say the world is getting better. This sunny outlook is almost double the next most optimistic country, Indonesia, with 23 percent and fourfold of the global average of 10 percent.
While it is said in most places that the chances of being killed by another human, life expectancy, poverty, democracy and the rule of law have all improved significantly over the past 200 years, 65 percent of adults in Britain disagree.
But the British are far less pessimistic than the French, because 81 percent of internet users in France say the world is getting worse, while only 3 percent say it is getting better.
Meanwhile, Australia, which is the second most pessimistic country, has almost 20 times more wealth per person than the second most optimistic, Indonesia.
Research suggests that the huge gap between China and the rest of the world when it comes to the fate of the planet reveals something special. The country's sheer rate of growth, the prioritization of health and quality of food are all contributory factors to this belief in a bright future.

Leading experts are working on a revision to a national regulation on the management of laboratory animals. If adopted, the law is expected to greatly improve the management and protection of such animals.
A draft to the new rules includes changes to the "Regulation on the Management of Laboratory Animals", which was adopted in 1988.
However, it remains unknown as to when the new regulations will come into force.
The "Regulation on the Management of Laboratory Animals" is a major guideline on the management of animals used in scientific research, and has been revised several times since it was enacted. It is primarily intended to ensure that animals used in laboratory experiments are of sufficiently high quality, in terms of health, to meet the demands of scientific research.
The regulation also includes a number of articles related to animals' welfare, including stipulations that the scientists conducting experiments must "take a good care of the animals and not provoke or abuse them".
Other guidelines have also been introduced since 1988, including many related to the welfare of laboratory animals.
However, China still lags behind many other countries in legislation to promote the welfare of laboratory animals.
