consisting of (包括) scales and a plate, a mini computer teaches children how to eat and reminds them when
to stop.
"In very fat people, hunger signals from the stomach to the brain stop functioning. But the new computer
system teaches the children how to receive these messages again," says Dr. Julian Hamilton-Shield, the Bristol
University senior lecturer leading the treatment trials.(实验).
The computer, called a Mandometer, records and stores the weight loss from the plate when children eat.
As the food is leaving the plate, a curve (曲线) is produced on the computer screen suggesting whether the
child is eating too quickly.
"Children with weight problems often eat too quickly. We want them to eat steadily (稳定地) and slowly
and the system teaches them to slow down. It"s a bit like retraining," says Hamilton-Shield.
Obesity now represents (代表) one of the major threats to the future health of children. About one in five
boys and one in four girls aged two to fifteen in England are overweight. But so far no treatments have proven
effective in treating children.
The Mandometer was developed in Sweden, but at present is experiencing further development at the
University of Bristol, with $ 224,400 in funds from BUPA-a global health and care organization. The system
could be on the market in two years" time. At first, it would be managed by medical clinics (诊所).
B. why child obesity becomes a topic of people
C. how to lose weight with the help of computers
D. why a computer is effective (有效的) in dealing with child obesity
B. working
C. lasting
D. losing
B. is nothing compared with other diseases
C. has led to many deaths
D. is very serious
B. The Mandometer is cheap enough for every family to afford.
C. The Mandometer is still not perfect.
D. Slow eating is sure to make people lose weight.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely harmful emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn
that angry feelings can lead to heart disease, stomach problem, headaches, emotional problems and possibly
cancer.
Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm
reasonable way. Others burst with anger, losing control of themselves. But other people repress their anger.
They cannot or will not express it.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person"s health than
expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (激素) that are
produced during tense situations. They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood and
narrow the blood vessels to the interstices (空隙). In general, the person feels excited and ready to act.
Doctors said that repressing these feelings only makes the feelings continue. And this can lead to many
medical problems. Doctors thought a person could prevent these problems by letting the anger out by
expressing it freely. But recently some doctors held a different view. They said that people who express anger
repeatedly and violently did become, in fact, more and not less angry. They said this, too, can cause medical
problems.
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those
who express anger strongly may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep
their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are
angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious, enough to get angry
about. If it is, they say, "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and
you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably."
B. the blood pressure rises
C. the blood contains sugar
D. some blood vessels become thinner
B. One can avoid his medical problems by expressing his anger freely.
C. One"s heart rate will increase if his anger is repressed.
D. One is likely to suffer from high blood pressure in a fit of great anger.
B. Expressing the anger.
C. Treating the anger properly.
D. Learning how to make a deal.
B. The dangers of anger and the solution.
C. New medical discoveries.
D. The argument between the new and old views about anger.

What about sweet foods?
Everyone likes the taste of sweet foods! Small amounts of sweet foods can be part of a healthy meal plan.
Sugary foods include soda, sweetened fruit drinks, honey, and candy. Desserts such as cakes, pies, cookies,
and ice cream contain a lot of fat as well as sugar. If you choose to eat any of these sweet foods, just have a
small amount at the end of a healthy meal. Have a piece of fruit if you are still hungry. Drink water, sugar-free
soda, and sugar-free fruit drinks, if you are thirsty, instead of drinks that are all high in sugars.
How much should you eat?
Your height, weight, age, whether you are a boy or a girl, and how active you are will affect how much
food you need to eat each day to stay at a healthy weight. Everyone is different. Talk to your doctor or diet
expert about how much to eat, especially if you need to lose weight. If you take in more food than your body
burns, you will gain weight. If you take in less food than your body burns, you will lose weight. Being active
and eating smaller amounts of food and fewer sweet or fatty foods can help overweight kids lose weight in a
healthy way. You will keep your heart healthy, too.
B. Pies.
C. Cheese.
D. Cookies.
B. the time we spend taking exercise
C. how old we are
D. the money our family earns
B. The more food we eat, the more food our body will burn.
C. The more active we are, the more food we need to eat.
D. The more food we eat, the more weight we will gain
B. pay much attention to their heart health
C. keep foods containing sugar and fat away
D. talk to their doctor and join a health club
shopping rather than going to the stores? What can"t you be bothered to do?
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of adults are so idle they"d catch the lift
rather than climb two flights of stairs.
Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health, Britain"s largest health
charity. The results were startling.
About one in six people surveyed said if their remote control was broken, they would continue watching
the same channel rather than get up.
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus. Worryingly, of the 654
respondents with children, 64% said they were often too tired to play with them.
This led the report to conclude that it"s no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese
before they start school.
Dr Sarah Dauncey, medical director of Nuffield Health, said: "People need to get fitter, not just for their
own sake, but for the sake of their families, friends and evidently their pets too. "If we don"t start to take
control of this problem, a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most rudimentary of
tasks."
And Scotland"s largest city, Glasgow, was shamed as the most indolent city in the UK, with 75% surveyed
admitting they do not get enough exercise, followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton, both with 67%.
The results pose serious challenges for the National Health Service, where obesity-related illnesses such
as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of
pounds every year.
B. More than 333.
C. 654.
D. About 420.
B. Glasgow people feel ashamed because they don"t get enough exercise
C. British people are the laziest around the world
D. five sixths of the British children are healthy
B. By providing answers to questions.
C. By interviewing some experts.
D. By telling a story.
B. A study of British people"s lifestyles.
C. The health service in the UK.
D. The obesity problem in the UK.
significant role in the process of recovery from illness.
As part of a nationwide effort in Britain to bring art out of the galleries (画廊) and into public places,
some of the country"s most gifted artists have been called in to change older hospitals and to soften the hard
edges of modern buildings. Of the 2,500 National Health Service hospitals in Britain, almost 100 now have
significant collections of modern art in corridors (走道), waiting areas and treatment rooms.
These recent initiatives(new plans) owe a great deal to one artist, Peter Senior, who set up his studio at
a Manchester Hospital in Northeastern England during the early 1970s. He felt the artist had lost his place in
modern society, and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience.
A common hospital waiting room might have as many as 5,000 visitors each week. What a better place
to hold regular exhibitions of art and paintings, in the outpatients waiting area of the Manchester Royal
Hospital in 1975. Believed to be Britain"s first hospital artist, Senior was so much in demand that he was soon
joined by a team of six young art school graduations.
The effect is striking. Now in the corridors and waiting rooms, the visitor experiences a full view of fresh
colors, playful images and restful courtyard.
The quality of the environment may reduce the need for expense when a patient is recovering from an
illness. A study has shown that patients who had a view onto a garden needed half the number of strong
painkillers compared with patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at.
paragraph?
B. To tear down the old hospital and build a new one.
C. To decorate hospitals with art collection.
D. To paint the walls of hospitals in soft colors.
B. Britain"s first hospital artist and a patient in Manchester Royal Hospital.
C. One of the six young art school graduations.
D. A gifted artist and a pioneer introducing art into hospitals.
B. art is not appreciated by a large number of people in modern society
C. patients should be encouraged to learn painting
D. artists can not find their positions in modern society
B. The improvement of hospital environment may cost the patients more than before.
C. The patients needed no painkillers when they had a view of a painting.
D. The patients had no pain at all after the improvement of hospital environment.
Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. Many people, however, are worried about the
weight that comes along with these delicious foods.
With proper planning, though, it is possible to control your weight. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but
not to eat too much. You don"t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. The following suggestions
may be of some help to you.
Don"t miss meals. Before you leave home for a feast (宴会), have a small, low-fat snack. This may help
to keep you from getting too excited before delicious foods.
Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables.
A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full.
Use a small plate; a large plate will encourage you to have more than enough.
Better not have high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.
Choose lean meat. Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.
If you have a sweet tooth, try mints (薄荷) and fruits. They don"t have fat content as cream and chocolate.
Don"t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20 minute walk after a meal can help burn off excess
calories.
B. bring you much trouble in your life
C. make you worried about your foods
D. make you hate delicious foods
