But it comes as something of a surprise that who is U U 1 /U /Uas beautiful depends not only on the health of a person but also on the average level of health in the place where she lives. This, though, is the conclusion of a study
31、just published in Biology Letters by Urszula Marcinkowska of the University of Turku, in Finland, and her U U 2 /U /Ufor Ms. Macinkowska has found that men in healthy countries think women with the most U U 3 /U /Uface are the prettiest whilst those in unhealthy places prefer more masculine-looking

34、kowska speculates that testosterone- induced behavioral characteristics like U U 10 /U /U, which might be expected to correlate with masculine- looking faces even in women (they certainly do in men), help in the competition for resources needed to sustain children once they are born.

After being diagnosed with brain and lung cancer in 2011, Lynn Mitchell, 68, was averaging about an ho
38、ur of solid sleep a night. Stressed about her treatments, she was paying for it in hours of lost sleep.B. The brain cancer was already affecting her mobilityMitchell was often dizzy and would lose her balancebut the lack of sleep made things worse. Even walking became increasingly difficult. Exhaust
39、ed in the mornings, she was Practically incoherent (精神恍惚). When her doctors recommend she see a sleep therapist, Mitchell was relieved at how benign it sounded in comparison to the chemotherapy (化学疗法) she had undergone and the gene therapy trial she was undergoing, which had side effects like nausea
40、 and fatigue.C. For about nine weeks, Mitchell worked with the sleep therapist to adjust her sleep habits. She went to bed only when she was extremely tired. She quit watching TV in bed. She stopped drinking caffeinated (含咖啡因) coffee in the evening. She also learned breathing exercises to relax and
41、help her fall asleep. It was all quite simple and common sense, and most importantly, noninvasive and didnt require taking any pills.D. “Its common knowledge that sleep is needed for day to day function,“ says Dr. David Rapoport, director of the Sleep Medicine Program at NYU School of Medicine. “Wha
42、t isnt common knowledge is that it really mattersits not just cosmetic.“ Rapoport has long seen people seek sleep therapy because theyre chronically tired or suffering from insomnia, but an increasing number of patients are being referred to his center for common diseases, disorders, and mental heal
43、th.E. Researchers have known for some time that sleep is critical for weight maintenance and hormone balance. And too little sleep is linked to everything from diabetes (糖尿病) to heart disease to depression. Recently, mounting evidence indicates that sleep plays a role in nearly every aspect of healt
44、h. Beyond chronic illnesses, a childs behavioral problems at school could be rooted in mild sleep apnea (呼吸暂停). And studies have shown children with ADHD (注意力缺陷多动症) are more likely to get insufficient sleep. A recent study published in the journal SLEEP found a link between older men with poor sleep
45、 quality and cognitive decline. Another study shows sleep is essential in early childhood for development, learning, and the formation and retention of memories.F. But to many of us, sleep is easily sacrificed, especially since lack of it isnt seen as life threatening. Over time, sleep deprivation c
46、an have serious consequences, but we mostly sacrifice a night of sleep here and there, and always say that well “catch up.“ Luckily, it is possible to make up for sleep debt (though it can take a very long time, but most Americans are still chronically sleep deprived.G. While diet and exercise have been a part of public health messaging for decades, doctors and health advocates are now beginning to argue that getting quality sleep may be just as imp
