It has various effects on health and daily life.
17、 Shift workers, especially those who work nights, can 1 a number of health problems. They include sleep 2 , depression, high blood pressure, heart disease and 3 . Experts now realize that sleep loss is dangerous and that night shift always results in sleep loss. Most people need eight hours of sleep
18、 a day to feel 4 . Parts of the night sleep are spent in light sleep stages and the other parts of the night are spent in deep sleep stages. If you work the night shift and sleep during the day, there are many things that can 5 your deep sleep and awaken you during your light sleep phase. Noise is t
19、he biggest problem. Daytime sleepers have to 6 noisy neighbors, children, traffic, lawn mowers and such.

It“s one upmanship among parents. We see
22、 our kids college 1 as trophies (奖杯) attesting to how well we“ve raised them. But we can“t acknowledge that our obsession is more about us than them. So we“ve contrived various 2 that turn out to be half truths, prejudices or myths. We have a full blown prestige panic; we worry that there won“t be e
23、nough trophies to go around. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever. Underlying the hysteria is the belief that scarce 3 degrees must be highly valuable. Their graduates must enjoy more success because they get a better education and develop better contacts, All that“

A well known study by Princeton economist Alan Krueger and Stacy Berg Dale of Mathematica Policy Research exami
26、ned students who got into highly selective schools and then went elsewhere. They earned just as much as graduates from other schools. Kids count more than their colleges. Getting into Yale may 7 intelligence, talent and ambition. But it“s not the only indicator and, 8 , its significance is declining
27、. The reason: So many similar people go elsewhere. Getting into college isn“t life“s only competition. In the next competitionthe job market, graduate schoolthe results may change. Old boy networks are breaking down. Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph. D. program. High scores on the Graduate R

America is a competitive society; our kids need to adjust to that. But too much pushiness can be 10 . The very ambition we
29、impose on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment. One study of students 20 years out found that, other things being equal, graduates of highly selective schools experienced more job dissatisfaction. They may have been so Conditioned to being on top that an

The re

32、sual entertaining. B. In kitchens with a small footprint, glass tiles, quartz counters and dish drawers are adding sparkle and practicality. The kitchen of 2013 has soul. “That industrial, commercial style was looking a little cold,“ says Samantha Emmerling, kitchen editor at Hearst Design Group. “P

Glass tiles are the jewelry of a kitchen for Tynesia Hand Smith, a Bloomingdale interior designer. “They add great shimmer,“ she says. With neutral colors ruling in cabinets and counters, glass tile is one way to add color and pers
35、onality. “Reds, greens and blues, vibrant colors are trending right now, as is iridescent glass,“ says DeeDee Gundberg, an Ann Sacks Tile product development manager. Instead of using the ubiquitous white subway tile backsplash, she suggests substituting large format glass tile in a similar shape. “
36、Light blue glass tiles are still very traditional with white cabinets but look very fresh,“ Gundberg adds.（分数：71.00）(1).The choice of cabinets is the most important thing for homeowners when they decide to remodel their kitchens.（分数：7.10）(2).The kitchen of 2013 becomes more impressive and practical

41、 global epidemic. Women who consumed a 28 gram packet of walnuts at least twice a week were 24 percent less likely to develop type 2 diabetes than those who rarely or never ate them. Eating walnuts just two or three times a week can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by almost a quarter. The latest
42、findings, published in the Journal of Nutrition, are not the first to highlight the anti-diabetic effects of walnuts, with earlier research showing similar benefits. However, this is thought to be one of the largest studies to find regularly snacking on them can help prevent the condition. Although
43、the latest research was carried out on female nurses, it“s likely that the same benefits apply to men. According to the charity Diabetes UK, at the current rate of increase, the numbers affected by type 2 diabetes in the UK will rise from around 2.5 million currently to four million by 2025 and five
44、 million by 2030. Left untreated, it can raise the risk of heart attacks, blindness and amputation (截肢). Being overweight, physically inactive and having a poor diet are major risk factors for the disease. Scientists at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, US, tracked 137893 female nurses
45、aged from 35 to 77 over a ten year period to see how many developed type 2 diabetes. Their dietary habits were closely monitored, including details on how often they ate nuts, particularly walnuts. After allowing for body fat and weight, the researchers found eating walnuts one to three times a mont
46、h reduced the risk by four percent, once a week by 13 percent and at least twice a week by 24 percent. In a report on the findings the researchers said: “These results suggest higher walnut consumption is associated with a significantly lower risk of type 2 diabetes in women.“ Walnuts are rich in he
47、althy fatty acids (脂肪酸) which have been shown to reduce inflammation (炎症) in the body and protect against heart disease, cancer and arthritis (关节炎). Last year, experts at the University of California Los Angeles also found young men in their twenties and thirties who ate walnuts every day increased
48、their sperm count and boosted their fertility. The research comes just after a Louisiana State University study which showed that eating nuts can reduce people“s risk of obesity. The study found that those who consumed varieties such as almonds and pistachios (开心果) demonstrated a lower body weight,
49、body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference compared to non-consumers. They were also at lower risk of developing heart disease, type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.（分数：71.00）(1).What does “a global epidemic“ (Line 3, Para. 1) refer to?（分数：14.20）A.A disease.B.Type 2 diabetes.C.Cancer.D.Obesity.(2).The research whose findings were published in the Journal of Nutrition _.（分数：14.20）A.was carried out on male nursesB.was considered as a small study of walnuts“ anti-diabe
