原标题：ISIS成员：正筹划在纽约发动猛烈袭击
中国日报网9月29日电（小唐） 据《纽约每日新闻》27日报道称，极端组织“伊斯兰国
”（ISIS）的一名成员宣称，该组织正筹划在纽约发动袭击，而其目标是未来让该组织
旗帜在白宫上空飘荡。
“如果情况允许的话，我们很快就会在纽约发动恐怖袭击。”这名自称法拉赫·希雷顿
的加拿大人通过视频对外界说，“很多兄弟正在那里进行活动。”他还断定美国的武装
分子势必发动一场猛烈的袭击。
他还说：“我还知道很多人——数以千计的人——目前生活在西部，准备好在你们的土
地上行动。”他们的终极目标是看到ISIS的旗帜飘扬在白宫上空。
伊拉克总理阿巴迪最近也提醒称恐怖分子要在纽约和巴黎的地铁发动袭击。为了安抚民
众的恐慌情绪，纽约市市长白思豪25日出现在纽约地铁，向市民保证地铁的安全性。此
外，警长和纽约州的州长还分别乘坐不同的地铁线，向公众证明地铁的安全性。白宫也
回应说，美方情报部门没有收到任何针对地铁的恐怖袭击情报，但表示会进一步研究伊

全民医保没什么不好，包括我认为德国是全民医保一个很好的例子，而且我也觉得全民

但美国的情况，搞全民无上限医保是行不通的。Obamacare尤其是一个劣选。
1）Obamacare的支付无上限要求导致individual plan的保费大幅提高，达到一年上万

万不等的上限，而不是什么都不保。
2）美国目前的制度根本支撑不起无上限医保。无上限医保的必要条件是可以制定价格

我是自闭症教育专业的，但是没有直接和这么小的孩子打过交道，不是很确定学前阶段
的具体特殊服务都有哪些。总的来说，自闭症的三大症状：语言障碍、社交障碍和机械
化动作，是学龄期阶段主要干预的对象。这其中，克服语言障碍和社交障碍是主要的教
育目标。因为语言障碍会导致小孩子和他人交流上的障碍，进而导致社交退化。同时，
社交障碍也会减少小孩子和他人进行语言交流的机会，是语言能力更加恶化。至于僵硬
的行为，一般来说，特教老师都会很理解，不会刻意去干涉。
我觉得对自闭症的孩子进行干预的主要的原则就是，在他可以接受的范围内，有步骤有
计划地进行语言和社交行为的干预。不要强迫他去学习什么，一切都可以慢慢来。如果
让他觉得反感，反倒容易导致一些攻击性或者自伤性的行为。那样的行为一旦产生，就
