Elderly adults who regularly drink green tea may stay more agile (敏捷的) and independent than their peers over time, according to a Japanese study that covered thousands of people.

Green tea contains antioxidant chemicals (抗氧化化学物质) that may help stop the cell damage that can lead to disease.Researchers have been studying green tea’s effect on everything from cholesterol (胆固醇) to the risk of certain cancers,with mixed results so far.

They found those who drank the most green tea were the least likely to develop “functional disability”,or problems with daily activities or basic needs,such as dressing or bathing.

Specifically,almost 13 percent of adults who drank less than a cup of green tea per day became functionally disabled,compared with just over 7 percent of people who drank at least five cups a day.

The study did not prove that green tea alone kept people agile as they grew older.Green tea lovers generally had healthier diets,including more fish,vegetables and fruit,as well as more education,lower smoking rates,fewer heart attacks and strokes,and greater mental sharpness.They also tended to be more socially active and have more friends and family to rely on.But even with those factors accounted for,green tea itself was tied to a tower disability risk,the researchers said.

People who drank at least five cups a day were one?third less likely to develop disabilities than those who had less than a cup per day.Those people who averaged three or four cups a day had a 25 percent lower risk.

Although it’s not clear how green tea might offer a buffer (缓冲) against disabilities,lead researcher Yasutake Tomata did note that one recent study found green tea extracts (提取物) seem to increase leg muscle strength in older women.

While green tea and its extracts are considered safe in small amounts,they do contain caffeine and small amounts of vitamin K,which means it could affect drugs that prevent blood clotting (凝固).

1.What does the underlined word “peers” mean in the first paragraph?

A.Fathers.

B.Brothers.

C.People of the same age.

D.People living in the same neighborhood.

2.What can be learned from the passage?

A.Antioxidant chemicals can lead to disease.

B.Those who often drink green tea can’t develop “functional disability”.

C.“Functional disability” is related to problems with daily activities or basic needs.

D.People who drink at least five cups a day are not likely to become functionally disabled.

3.What does the fifth paragraph mainly tell us?

A.How the study was proved.

B.Why green tea lovers can keep agile.

C.What healthier diets include.

D.How to lower the disability risk.

4.What has the researcher Yasutake Tomata discovered?

A.Those who drank green tea can’t develop “functional disability”.

B.Green tea alone kept people agile as they grew older.

C.How green tea might offer a buffer against disabilities.

D.Green tea extracts seem to increase leg muscle strength in older women.

5.From the passage we can infer that________.

A.vitamin K is contained in caffeine

B.vitamin K is good for our blood

There are many older people in the world and there will be many more.A lime?known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries.According to the World Health Organization,by 2020 there will be 1 billion,with over 700 million living in developing countries.

It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries.For example,it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent.It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.

What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk?One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live,the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability.Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible,including during old age,to lessen the financial burden on the state.

Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society.In some African countries,certainly in Asia,older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge.Yet traditions are fading away daily,which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people.As society changes,attitudes will change.

Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (歧视) in employment.Life?long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country’s development.

Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people.Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.

To achieve equality in such matters will take considerable time and effort.One thing is sure:there is no time to be lost.

1.The proportion of older people________.

A.is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries

B.is one?seventh of the population in developing countries

C.will increase much faster in China than in France

D.will be sixty percent in developing countries by 2020

2.According to the passage,which of the following are governments most worried about?

A.The diseases and disability of older people.

B.The longer life and good health of people.

C.The loss of taxes on older people.

D.The increasing respect for older people.

3.It is stated directly in the passage that older people should________.

A.be treated differently in different cultures

B.enjoy a similar lifestyle

C.be ignored as society changes

D.be valued by the younger generations

4.Which of the following measures is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?

A.Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.

B.Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.

C.Providing free health care for sick older people.

D.Supplying life?long learning programs to older people.

5.The author concludes in the last paragraph that________.

A.governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problem

B.population ageing is a hard problem,but it needs to be solved urgently

C.people are too busy to solve the population ageing problem

D.much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problem

University of Maryland student Ben Simon and his friends couldn’t stand to see good food thrown out on their campus.“We basically noticed that some of the extra food from the dining hall was going to waste at the end of the day.And we met with the dining services and asked them whether it would be okay if instead of throwing out the food we would donate it.And they were on board,” he said.

So 18 months ago,the students began what they call the Food Recovery Network.Each night,volunteers would show up at a campus dining hall to pick up leftovers and deliver them to area shelters and food banks.So far,they have donated more than 23 000 kilos of food that would otherwise have been thrown out.

Nationwide,$165 billion worth of food is wasted each year,according to the National Resources Defense Council.Spokesman Bob Keefe says that is about 40% of the country’s entire food production.“If we can reduce our waste in this country by 15%,we can feed 25 million hungry Americans.That is a huge benefit.That is what programs like this Food Recovery Network are doing,” he said.

Christian Life Center is one of the beneficiaries (受益者) of the students’ efforts.Ben Slye,the senior pastor (牧师),said,“It has been just amazing to see these students take their own time,their own vehicles and own gas money and be able to make an effort like this.Each week we are able with this food probably to feed over hundred people.”

The University of Maryland’s Food Recovery Network now has 200 volunteers and the program has expanded to 18 schools across the country.“I want to grow 18 chapters to a thousand chapters within five years.And once we get to the Food Recovery Nation being at every college campus in America,we want to expand to restaurants and farms.” said Simon.

The volunteers are committed to making that happen.
