D
Is a recently discovered hormone the reason why folks who lose weight can’t keep it off?
Like millions of other fat people, at 530 inches high, more than 300 pounds, Carnie Wilson was not just fat. After trying all sort of diets that didn’t work, she has to go to the stomach – bypass surgery (胃部迂回手术), ie, have most of her stomach sewed up, only leaving tiny room to hold several tablespoonfuls at most. Result: she simply couldn’t eat the way she used to. In three years, Wilson is one third of her former weight.
Wilson’s experience is not all that unusual, and while doctors still aren’t exactly sure what is going on, a report in last week’s Journal of Medicine offers an explanation. The loss of appetite in bypass patients may be linked to a recently discovered hormone called ghrelin. Not only that, ghrelin may turn out to be one reason we feel hungry and it’s hare for didters to keep weight off.
Nowadays, researchers are careful to stress only what they know for sure. For the three conclusions, the leading Dr. David of the University of Washington says, “I feel very solid about two of them.” The first is that ghrelin levels in the bloodstream rise significantly before meals and drop afterward. The second conclusion is that ghrelin levels are higher on average in people who have lost weight from dieting.
Dr. David is less sure of the third conclusion, that bypass patients have only a quarter as much ghrelin as most people of normal weight. After all, ghrelin is produced by cells in the stomach. Years ago, leptin, a hormone was found as an appetite suppressant (食物抑制剂). But after years of trying, it had to be given up.
What doctors suspect is that both leptin and ghrelin are part of a complex system of brain and body chemicals that govern weight and appetite. That does not mena pharmaceutical (药物的) weight control is forever out of the question. “In the next ten years, we will be able to develop new drugs to help people lose weight healthily and effectively.”
47.What can we learn about ghrelin according to the passage?
A.After meals ghrelin levels are higher in the bloodstream.
B.People who have lost weight have less ghreilin in their body.
C.Without ghrelin, people are really difficult to lose weight.
D.Ghrelin is something produced by cells in the stomach.
48.What is Dr. David not sure?
A.pharmaceutical weight control is impossible.
       B.There is less ghrelin in the bypass patients.
C.new drugs will be developed in 10 years.
D.ghrelin levels are higher in people on diet.
49.In fact, people’s weight and appetite are controlled by        
A.ghrelin and leptin                      B.hormone and medicine
C.brain and body chemicals                  D.stomach and food
50.What can we infer from the passage?
A.People with a lower ghrelin level go hungry easily.
B.Doctors managed to use leption to control the appetite.
C.Doctors are optimistic about how to lose weight healthily.
D.The loss of appetite in bypass aptient is linked to leptin

Is veg food healthier than non-veg food? I feel this is a very common topic that people speak on.Please give me your opinions on this topic.
Rao
12-18-08
So far as veg food is concerned, it is also proved to be a healthy and nutritious diet, but has very few items which can provide us with proteins, but if you see non-veg food like eggs, chicken, and many more, such foods have a large content of proteins in them.
Sai
12-19-08
Man basically is herbivorous(食草的). If we look at the animal kingdom
We can see that all the herbivorous animals have the similar dental(牙齿的)
structure, which clearly shows that the human being also ought to be vegetarian
by birth. It is only the living conditions that make man carnivorous(食肉的).
The vegetarian foods are easily digestible.
Santos
12-20-08
Non-veg food items are better than veg items. A healthy person requires complete diet and veg+ meat makes the diet complete. The only caution that needs to be taken is not to have non-veg items on a daily basis. Once in a week or couple of weeks will be best.
Krishna

When we eat non-veg, we are all veg by nature. The chicken that we eat feeds on grains, the mutton that we eat feeds on grass, and the fish that we eat feeds on simple plants. So non-veg food by logic(逻辑)is better and suited for hauman beings.
Khan
01-05-09
Non-veg food is equally important in our diet as it helps in many ways, especially fish and other seafood as fish contains omega 3 which makes our immune system(免疫系统)stronger. Do you know that most of the veg food put together does not contain as much omega 3 as fish alone contains!
68.According to Rao, what is the problem with veg food?
A.It damages our immune system.
B.It has few nutrients.
C.It contains too much omega 3.
D.It is lacking in protein.
69.In the opinion of Sai, humans are born vegetarian because humans______.
A.have the same teeth structure as plant-eating animals
B.believe that veg foods are good for their teeth
C.belong to the plant-eating animal family
D.can adapt to the living conditions like plant-eating animals
70.What advice is given by Santos?
A.To have a saily veg+ meat diet.
B.Not to eat non-veg food every day.
C.To eat digestible food every day.
D.Not to eat food without protein.

LONDON (Reuters)    Ecotourism is causing a lot of damage to wildlife and may be endangering the survival of the very animals people are flocking to see, according to re­searchers.

Biologists and conservationists are worried because polar bears, dolphins, penguins and other creatures are getting stressed and losing weight and some are dying.

"Evidence is growing that many animals do not react well to tourists in their backyard,” New Scientist magazine said.

The immediate effects "researchers have noticed are changes in behavior, heart rates. or stress hormone levels but they fear it could get much worse and over the long term “ could endanger the survival of the very wildlife they want to see. ”

Although money produced through ecotourism, which has been growing at about 10-30 percent a year, has major benefits for poor countries and people living in rural areas, the Swiss-based World Conservation Union (IUCN) and some governments fear not all projects are audited(审计) and based on environmentally friendly policies,according to the magazine.

Transmission of disease to wildlife,or small changes to wildlife health through dis­turbance of daily life or increased stress levels, while not obvious to the casual observer, may translate to lower survival and breeding,” said Philip Seddon , of the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand.

Scientists have noticed that bottleneck dolphins along the northeastern coast of New Zealand become nervously excited when tourist boats arrive. Similar changes in behavior have been observed in polar bears and yellow-eyed penguins in areas visited by colorists are producing smaller babies.

Conservationists are now calling for more research into the effect of ecotourism on ani­mals and say the industry must be developed carefully. They also want studies done before new ecotourism projects are started.

“The animals’ welfare should be very important because without them there will be no ecotourism said Rochelle Constantine of the University of Auckland in New Zealand

1.Which is not discovered to have changed in animals disturbed by tourists?

2.We may learn from the text that _____.

B. polar bears are losing weight without enough food

C. all the poor countries have stopped ecotourism

D. money produced through ecotourism should be spent on wildlife

3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?

B. Studies should be done before new ecotourism projects are started

C. Ecotourism has been growing at about 10—30 percent a year.

阅读表达
    阅读下面的短文,根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)
     An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling
a flood of e-mails before most of us had even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was
vital enough, his lack of response would ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn't important
enough to have his private number, the communication couldn't be that important, My friend is now even
more senior in the same company, so the strategy must work.    
     Almost every week now, there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by
the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it's only because we haven't devel-oped an appropriate
discrimination in dealing with it.      
              Firstly, you junk anything with an exclamation mark or a string of capital letters,or from any
address you don't recognize or feel confident about.    
     Secondly, e-mails don't all have to be answered. Because e-mailing is so easy, there's a tendency for
correspondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless dis-cussion or to accept a
point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.    
     Thirdly, a reply e-mail doesn't have to be the samelength as the original. We all have e-mail pals who
send long, chatty e-mails, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. Then
charm of e-mail can consist in the simple, incomplete sentence, totally regardless of the format of the
letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e-mail
with a brief reply.
    
1. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?      
The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails.      
________________________________________________________      
________________________________________________________    
2. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence.(within 10 words)        
______________________________________________________    
3. What advice is given in the last paragraph?  (within l0 words)        
______________________________________________________    
4. For what purpose does the author mention his American friend in Paragraph l? (within 10 words)       
 ______________________________________________________    
5. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.        
_____________________________________________________
