How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves (or for anyone else ).Registered dietitian Barbara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.
“Go for nutrient-dense foods,”she suggests,“foods that contain a multiple of nutrients.  For example,select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food,rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink,which contains only a small percentage of real juice—the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can"t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient-dense ones are so superior,”she emphasizes.
Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life,it"s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on one or two foods are not only almost impossible to keep up the strength,they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren"t supplied in enough amounts or balance.
According to Morrissey,trying to find a diet that can cure your illnesses,or make you superwoman is a fruitless search.“ As women,many of us are too concerned with staying thin,”she says,and “we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.”
“We need carbohydrates,protein and fat-they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are like the match,the spark,for the fuel,”she explains.“ We need them all,but in a very different proportions(部分). And if the fuel isn"t there,the spark is useless.”
小题1:From the first paragraph we know that working women________.
A.think cooking is especially complicated
B.do not share the same views with registered dietitians

小题2:Orange juice is different from orange drink because________.
A.it contains only a small percentage of real juice
B.it is natural,nutritious and prepared from real oranges
C.it is largely orange-colored sugar water
D.it produces nothing but calories
小题3:In Paragraph 4,“a fruitless search” means “____”.
A.an effort with no results
B.a search for a diet without fruits
C.a research on fruitless diet
D.a diet serving as medicine
小题4:Many women take it for granted,according to the passage that________.
A.a balanced diet can result in being fat
B.staying thin and healthy are both possible
C.lack of variety in diets leads to staying thin
D.vitamins are some kind of substitutions(代替物)for food

A.carbohydrates,protein and fat are enough to support a human life
B.vitamins and minerals are almost of no value

Many people have never heard of Mesothelioma and are unaware of its symptoms. Although considered a rare form of cancer, each year the number of cases grows. With the prevalence(流行)of this disease on the rise, it is critical to understand why and how Mesothelioma develops and what courses of action can be taken in the event of diagnosis. The following is a list of frequently asked questions and answers that will provide you with some information on Mesothelioma, and the legal issues surrounding it.
What is Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is the term used to describe a cancerous tumor found in the mesothelial cells of an organ. The organs where this form of cancer is most commonly found are the lungs, heart and abdominal organs. Pleural Mesothelioma is cancer of the lung lining(组织,膜)and is the most common form of Mesothelioma.
What causes Mesothelioma?
Mesothelioma is almost always caused by exposure to asbestos(石棉). Asbestos is often found in building materials used before the mid 1970"s. In addition, materials such as pipes, boiler insulation, floor, ceiling and roof tiles may contain asbestos.
How much asbestos exposure will cause Mesothelioma?
Generally, the probability of developing this form of cancer is in accordance with the length of time you are exposed to asbestos. Also, your health is at risk if your exposure to asbestos is intense. It should be noted that Mesothelioma has a latency(潜伏)period of 20 to 50 years. This means that you may develop the disease long after your exposure to asbestos. On average, people tend to develop Mesothelioma somewhere between 35 and 40 years after exposure.
How quickly does Mesothelioma progress?
The onset of Mesothelioma is quite slow. Patients will begin to experience symptoms such as lower back pain and chest pain. These symptoms may also be accompanied by weight loss, fever and difficulty breathing. Unfortunately, once Mesothelioma develops, it quickly becomes aggressive and treatment must be sought immediately.
Can Mesothelioma be treated?
Doctors are able to use several traditional methods of cancer treatment for Mesothelioma, including surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Like all forms of cancer, detecting the disease at the earliest stage possible greatly increases the patient"s chances for survival. If you have worked in an industry such as construction or suspect that you may have been exposed to asbestos, be alert for symptoms and contact your doctor immediately.

Depression(抑郁症)is a serious problem today.Depression causes workers to be unproductive,causing companies and countries to lose billions of dollars.One expert says that depression is like cancer because it is “widespread,costly and deadly”.Depression hits one person in five around the world.
Although people have believed depression to be a problem among the rich and educated,studies show that depression is a problem among everyone。Over any six-month period,between five to seven percent of the world"s population will be suffering from a serious depression.
suicide(自***)rates among people suffering from the disease in its extreme,or clinical form were 80 percent higher than in the population at large,and sufferers were four times more likely to have heart attacks. People who suffer from depression often have problems sleeping,getting up on time,and doing work productively.
Depression,which researchers agree has its origin in the genes(基因),brings loss of confidence and ability to concentrate-making it impossible for employees and managers to work efficiently.
Depression is made more serious in China by Chinese"s inability to face it.Many people believe that depressed people are either weak or lazy.  Besides,there is no good treatment,with few specialists available.
“Most patients in China just don"t get help,”a Chinese doctor says.“In my hospital.I have to see 30 or 40 patients in a morning,just have time to say “Hello how do you feel?”
In Western countries,people are not afraid to admit that they have depression,but most do not tell it to their boss,because they fear that their boss would fire them.
“In my experience,aging bosses are the most willing to admit they have it. Because they feel the most secure about themselves,”an American doctor says.

The physical memory dump error is a big problem that affects even the most advanced computer systems.Although it"s quite a rare error, it"s one of the most stopping what you"re doing and restarting your computer—making you lose all your unsaved data.This is a big problem, but there is actually a very easy way to fix it.
There are two reasons why the physical memory dump happens.The first is pretty simple and is to do with the "hardware", and if any of these pieces are not fit for your system, it will cause the physical memory dump.So, if you"ve recently added any hardware to your PC, then take that out and see if it works.
The other reason is your system, the "registry".The registry is a big database that operates in the background of Windows, storing all sorts of settings and information about your PC.The problem with the registry is that since it has so many important files inside, it"s constantly got hundreds of files open every time you use your PC.And because there are so many files to open at once, Windows is constantly getting confused, leading it to save many of these files in the wrong way.These files go wrong when saved wrongly, making them difficult for your computer to read.However, if it can"t read the files at all, it has no choice but to stop everything it"s doing and restart your PC.This is why the physical memory dump error appears so easily—because when a registry file is so wrong that it can"t be read, your computer needs to refresh itself immediately.
This latter reason for causing the physical memory dump is actually extremely common and the likelihood is that your PC is suffering from it, if you"re seeing this error.Luckily, it"s also incredibly easy to fix—you just need to use a software tool called a "registry cleaner" to go through the registry and fix all the problems in there.
小题1:From the text we can infer that ________.
A.the dump error often happens to your PC
B.the dump can be dealt with easily
C.only the advanced computers suffers from the error
D.the dump error can cause the data in your PC to be lost
小题2:The reason that your PC has the dump error is that ___________.
A.the hardware loses its memory
B.your Windows needs to be upgraded
C.you have saved wrong files in the PC
D.you have stored too many files in the PC.
小题3:What’s problem with the registry when your PC goes wrong?
A.The register can’t read the files correctly.
B.It must open 100 files every time you use your PC.
C.The register doesn’t agree with the database.
D.The register must save many important files inside.
小题4:What does a registry cleaner means?
A.A software which can help you save time.
B.A software which can remove unnecessary files
C.A software which can repair the machine.

Long ago, operation usually had to be done while the sick man could feel everything. The sick man had to be held down on a table by force while the doctors did their best to save him. He could feel all the pain if his leg or arm was being cut off, and his fearful cries filled the room and the hearts of those who watched.
Soon after 1770, Josept Priestley discovered a gas which is now called “laughing gas”. Laughing gas became known in America. Young men and women went to parties to try it. Most of them spent their time laughing, but one man at a party, Horace Wells, noticed that people didn’t seem to feel pain when they were using this gas. He decided to make an experiment on himself.He asked a friend to help him.
Wells took some of the gas, and his friend pulled out one of Wells’ teeth. Wells felt no pain at all.
As he didn’t know enough about laughing gas, he gave a man less gas than he should have. The man cried out with pain when his tooth was being pulled out. 
Wells tried again, but this time he gave too much of the gas, and the man died. Wells never forgot this terrible event.

Why does the rate of heart attacks increase during the World Cup football finals? How can we help an overweight patient to lose weight? They’re just some of the topics covered in a new book by University of Sussex academics, which is helping student doctors to consider the importance of psychology in medical practice.
Psychology for Medicine is the first textbook of its kind, providing medical trainees and new doctors with all the relevant psychological knowledge they need. Previously, students had to refer to many different books for the relevant psychology.
The book, by Sussex psychologists Dr. Sussex Ayers and Dr. Richard de Visser, has been well received by fellow academics and medical doctors and was finished with the help of the students and staff of the Brighton and Sussex Medical School. The students proofread(校对) the chapters, provided ideas for the content and even modeled for the photographs. The book provides a solid grounding in psychological study relevant to medicine, along with practical tips and advice for practice. One student, Simon Hall, drew cartoons for the book.
The study psychology is important for doctors for a number of reasons. Psychological and physical symptoms are highly related. Up to a third of patients will have psychological disorders, while physical causes are usually only found in around 15 per cent of people’s symptoms. In treatment, a lot of the effect drugs can be due to patients believing they will recover rather than the drug itself.
Dr. Ayers says, “The important thing about this book is that it’s applied science --- it shows why psychology is important to medicine and how we should use it. The book’s presentation is really important. It’s not just lots of theory, but full of tips and advice so that students can take what they learn in the classroom and apply it to real-life situations.”
小题1:The book Psychology for Medicine is mainly written for ________.
A.scientistsB.overweight peopleC.patientsD.student doctors
小题2:What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A.The topics of the book.B.The comments on the book.
C.The contributors to the book.D.The characteristics of the book.
小题3:According to the text, the book Psychology for Medicine _________.
A.is a bit difficult to understand.
B.is mainly about how to lose weight.
C.included tips on training football players.
D.focuses on the importance of psychology in treatment
