• 2．The day after I won Miss England in July 2019，I came back down to earth with quite a bump.I'd just graduated from Nottingham University，and was starting my first day as a junior doctor at Pilgrim Hospital in Boston，Lincolnshire.My parents，who came to the UK from Kolkata，India，when I was nine，always drummed into me the importance of getting a sensible job.There was an expectation I'd go into medicine-it's a respected profession in Asian families，but on a personal level I wanted an academic career.Being a medic keeps you on your toes and I enjoy the feeling when you help fix someone's problems.
     Although being a beauty queen and a medic might sound like two very different things，in some ways I was drawn to competing in pageants （选美竞赛）for the same reason.I wanted a platform for myself and I have seen a lot of successful women come out of the industry and make a difference in their field of work.When the pandemic first started to gather pace，I was in India at the start of a tour of Asia.My colleagues were messaging me about the Covid-19 pandemic and how busy the wards were.I had a strong sense I wanted to be part of the effort to beat Covid.The country was in 'the middle of an emergency，and it was the right time to hang up my crown （皇冠）for a while.So I came back to Pilgrim Hospital.
     Life was a mix of 12-hour day and night shifts and weekends on call.I wrote a poem called Invisible Halo.We turned it into a film featuring staff at the hospital，to celebrate their duty，dedication and sacrifice.The film ends with them taking turns to wear my crown.Like everyone，I'm looking forward to this year being a fresh start.I've been able to show that being a beauty queen means so much more now.As the Miss England slogan says，it's all about beauty with a purpose.

• 3．When the Svalbard Global Seed Vault opened in 2008，it became an icon of the vital mission of gene banks to preserve crop diversity.Now，a new gene bank in the tropics could make a similar mark，with an equally distinctive design and an urgent research agenda.Last week，researchers and officials dedicated a ＄17 million gene bank facility in Palmira，Colombia. 'It will provide an expanded home for the world's largest collection of beans，cassava，and tropical forage grasses （饲料草种），which breeders use to create better performing and climate-resistant crops.
     Theo Hintum，head of the plant gene bank at Wageningen University &Research's Centre for Genetic Resources，says： "The construction of the new gene bank shows that we as a world community are willing to invest in conserving genetic diversity and keeping it available for future generations. "

     Theo Hintum hopes the building，which will also be open to visitors from schools and the general public，will also inspire the next generation of plant breeders and gene bank curators.He also adds： "It looks absolutely beautiful.That could really make people appreciate that this is something valuable. "
