to find out: Photograph it with a cellphone and send the image to an expert. With cellphones becoming
common in Japan and rising concern over expanding waistlines, health-care providers will allow the
calorie-conscious people to send photos of their meals to nutritionists (营养学家) for advice.
Public health insurance offices in Osaka in Western Japan have launched the service on a trial basis. About
100 cardiac (心脏病的) patients signed up in the first year, followed by diabetes and obesity patients in the
second."Japanese have been getting fatter, especially men in their 20s and 30s. There is concern over what they
learned about nutrition when they were younger," the Osaka official, Satomi Onishi, said."We"re hoping that this
program can help us deal with the problem."
Osaka is using a system developed by Asahi Kasei Corp. The system is operating among about 150
health-care providers and local governments around the country Nutritionists can work with photos from one
day"s meals to several weeks" worth. Results come back in three days. People can also log on a website to get
further information.
Dr Yutaka Kimura has developed a similar system at Kansai Medical University"s Hirakata Hospital, also in
Osaka. Five patients have taken part in the programme, which costs $37 to join and $21 per month. Patients
photograph meals over the course of three to seven days, and a nutritionist e-mails advice to them. "Patients
used to fill in meal logs, but people tend to forget things or underestimate (低估) their portions (份)," Kimura
said. "Photographing meals and e-mailing them can be easier and get more accurate results."
As Japanese have turned to bigger portions and more meat and fried foods, obesity and related illnesses
such as high blood pressure have become a rising concern. The Health Ministry estimated last year that more
than half of Japanese men and about one in five women between 40 and 70 years old were at the increased
risk of heart disease, type II diabetes and other diseases because of obesity. With the Health Ministry hoping
to see a 25% reduction in the number of people at the risk of these diseases by 2015, Osaka officials hope the
cellphone program will help.

who print newspapers and books, and who weave cloth become deaf. Quite a few people living near airports
also become deaf. Recently it was discovered that many teenagers in America could hear no better than
65-year-old persons, for these young people like to listen to pop music and pop music is a kind of noise,
Besides, noise produced by jet planes or machines will make people ill or even drive them mad.
It is said a continuous noise of over 85 decibels can cause deafness. Now the government in many

People"s Olympics." 1 . Among them "Green Olympics" embraces the essence of the 3000-year long Chinese
philosophy, namely harmony and unity of nature and human existence.
On the World Environment Day in 2003, Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2008 Olympic Game began
the Green Office Project. 2 .
On September 24, 2005, the logo of the Green Olympics was shown at the Beijing Young Palace. 3 . It
consists of the crown of a tree and the shape of a human being that are used to create the form of a large tree
reaching the sky. The image represents harmony and unity between human beings and nature. Just like swinging colored strips that surround and cross each other, the green lines form a crown of tree and recall flowers in full bloom, expressing the sustainable (可持续的) development of environment protection.

30, 2008, Brazil announced that the rate of deforestation increased more than three times in the past year.
The Amazon rainforest covers around 4.1 million square kilometers of Brazil, nearly 60 percent of the
country. The rainforest supports at least 10 percent of the world"s known species. The 17 million people who
live in the Brazilian Amazon depend on the land for their homes and livelihoods. Brazil is the world"s biggest
beef and soy exporter. Farmers need land for crops and to feed their cattle. Some burn patches of forest to
clear the land. Others cut down trees for wood. They build roads to transport the wood.
Brazil"s economy is growing, but that growth comes at a price. In May, Brazil"s environment minister,
Marina Silva, quit her job. For six years, she tried to protect the forest. But she felt she was losing the battle
against those who are eager to make money in the Amazon.
The Amazon is the planet"s largest absorber of carbon dioxide, a gas that can trap heat in the atmosphere.
A world Wildlife Found study shows that 55 percent of the Amazon could be gone by 2030. Without those
trees, billions of tons of carbon dioxide would stay in the atmosphere. They would speed up global warming.
Brazilian researchers say that temperatures in the Amazon region will rise by two to three degrees by 2050.
That, and the resulting lower rainfall, could turn 30-60 percent of the forest into grassland with only scattered
trees.
B. the loss of the trees
C. the slow growth of trees
D. an increase in trees
B. the world"s biggest beef and soy export
C. the gradual destruction of the Amazon rainforest
D. the environmental protection of the Brazilians
B. Marina Silva is determined to fight for the conservation of the rainforest in any case
C. Marina Silva began to hold the post of Brazil"s environment minister in 2005
D. The majority of Brazilians have joined Marina Silva in protecting the rainforest
B. The living standard of the Brazilians has been greatly raised in the past few years.
C. The Amazon rainforest is the planet"s largest absorber of carbon dioxide.
D. The Amazon rainforest is in urgent need of the protection, or global warming will speed up.

organization provides emergency care to victims of armed conflict, natural and manmade disasters, and
fast-spreading diseases. The group also assists people who have no other way to receive health care. It
trains local health workers, provides mental health care, and organizes nutrition and other programs.
Doctors Without Borders is also known by its French name, Medecins Sans Frontieres. A group of
doctors from France started the organization in 1971. They said they felt strongly that race, religion and
political beliefs should not prevent someone from receiving health care. They also said the medical needs
of individuals were more important than national borders.
Doctors Without Borders is also working to get medicines to poor people. It is involved in a new drug
research organization in Geneva. The effort is called the Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative. Research
centers in Brazil, France, India, Kenya and Malaysia are also involved.
The organizers say drug companies have forgotten about the diseases that affect millions of people in
developing countries. Scientists will seek new drugs to treat diseases like sleeping sickness and
leishmaniasis [(医)利什曼病(尤指黑热病)]. Both are spread by insects. What should be done is to spend
about two-hundred-fifty-million dollars over the next ten years to develop new treatments for these and
other diseases.
In 1999, Doctors Without Borders won the Nobel Peace Prize. The group was recognized for its work
in the conflicts in Kosovo and East Timor.
sea. Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu"s nine little islands is more than five
metres above sea level. Salt water is already entering the country"s drinking water supply, as well as damaging
plants that produce fruit and vegetable. Without urgent help, the country"s days are numbered.
But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea. Venice, a historic city in Italy best known for
its canals, has sunk about 24 cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will have sunk another 20-50cm
by 2050. A century ago, St. Mark"s Square, the lowest point in the city, flooded about nine times a year.
Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times a year. While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it
stands, Tuvalu"s rising sea level is caused by global warming.
The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degrees over the past century;
scientists expect it to rise by an extra 1-3 degrees over the next 100 years.
Warmer weather makes glaciers (冰川) melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures
also make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has risen about
10-25 cm in the last 100 years.
The main cause of global warming is human pollution. Through burning coal, oil and gas, people have been
increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2. This adds to the power of the greenhouse
effect, making the planet even warmer. Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there will
be huge climate changes. The sea level could rise by one meter this century.
Should this come true, the sea will swallow up millions of homes and the world will be flooded with "climate refugees" looking for somewhere to live.
B. All Tuvalu"s islands are about five meters above the sea level
C. Drinking water in Tuvalu has been destroyed
D. Tuvalu is often flooded by storms and waves
B. they are both sinking into the mud where they stand
C. they will disappear in the future
D. their trouble is caused by global warming
B. Climate changes.
C. Rare animals.
D. Climate effect.
B. The average global temperature has risen by 1-3 centigrade degrees over the 100 years.
C. The warmer temperature causes the sea level to rise.
D. There will be huge climate changes unless the warming is stopped.
