9、y we sometimes get ill and what to do to get better again. And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our hearts beating healthily.But in order that we dont slip back into bad habits, lets have a look at what life was like 100 years ago.Families had between 15 and 20 children, al
10、though many babies didnt live long. Children suffered from lots of diseases, especially rickets (佝偻病) and scurvy (坏血病), which are both caused by bad diets. This is because many families were very poor and not able to feed their children well.Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like Lond

Later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and, more recently, rubber and plastic. And that was where we stuck,
16、 in surgical instrument terms, for many years. In the 1960s a new tool was developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great practical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also, in time, to revolutionize the art and science of surgery.2. The tool is the laser and it is being used
17、 by more and more surgeons all over the world, for a very large number of different complaints. The word laser means: Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. As we all know, light is hot; any source of light-from the sun it self clown to a humble match burning-will give warmth. But
18、light is usually spread out over a wide area. The light in a laser beam, however, is concentrated. This means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinpoint-sized beam.3. Experiments with these pinpoi
19、nt beams have shown researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. It is now possible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of the human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by passing a laser beam right through the eyebal
20、l. No knives, no stitches, no unwanted damage-a true surgical wonder.4. Operations which once left patients exhausted and in need of long periods of recovery time now leave them feeling relaxed and comfortable. So much more difficult operations can now be tried.5. The rapid development of laser tech
21、niques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting. Perhaps some cancers will be treated with laser in a way that makes surgery not only safer but more effective. Altogether, tomorrow may see more and more information coming to light on the diseases which ca

Having a quick “pick-me-up“ cup of
25、coffee late in the day will play havoc with your sleep. As well as being a stimulant, caffeine interrupts the flow of melatonin, the brain hormone that sends people into a sleep.Melatonin levels normally start to rise about two hours before bedtime. Levels then peak between 2 am and 4 am, before fal
26、ling again. “Its the neurohormone that controls our sleep and tells our body when to sleep and when to wake,“ says Maurice Ohayon of the Stanford Sleep Epidemiology Research Center at Stanford University in California. But researchers in Israel have found that caffeinated coffee halves the bodys lev
27、els of this sleep hormone.Lotan Shilo and a team at the Sapir Medical Center in Tel Aviv University found that six volunteers slept less well after a cup of caffeinated coffee than after drinking the same amount of decaf. On average, subjects slept 336 minutes per night after drinking caffeinated co
28、ffee, compared with 415 minutes after decal They also took half an hour to drop off twice as long as usual and jigged around in bed twice as much.In the second phase of the experiment, the researchers woke the volunteers every three hours and asked them to give a urine sample. Shilo measured concent
29、rations of a breakdown product of melatonin. The results suggest that melatonin concentrations in caffeine drinkers were half those in decal drinkers. In a paper accepted for publication in Sleep Medicine, the researchers suggest that caffeine blocks production of the enzyme that drives melatonin pr

36、on his car. “He looked at his budget and decided he could save a lot of money by shopping for clothes at thrift shops.“Even new clothes are fairly disposable(可丢失的)and wear out after a couple of years,“ Barth said. “In thrift shops, you can find some great stuff whose quality is better than new cloth
37、es“.Since then, Barth, who works at a Goodwill thrift shop in the US state of Florida, has found that there are all kinds of reasons for shopping for second-hand clothing. Some people, like him, shop to save money. Some shop for a crazy-looking shirt. And some shop as a means of conserving energy an
38、d helping the environment.Pat Akins, an accountant at a Florida Salvation Army(SA)(救世军)thrift shop, said that, for her, shopping at thrift shops is a way to help the environment.“When my daughter was little, we looked at it as recycling,“ Akins said. “Also, why pay 30 dollars for a new coat when you
39、 can get another one for a lot less?“Akins said that the SA has shops all over the US “some as big as department stores. “All of the clothes are donated(捐赠), and when they have a surplus(盈余), theyll have “stuff a bag“ specials, where customers can fill a grocery sack with clothes for only 5 or 10 do
40、llars,Julia Slocum, 22points out, however, that the huge amount of second-hand clothing in the US is the result of American wastefulness.“Id say that second-hand stores are the result of our wasteful, materialistic culture,“ said Slocum, who works for a pro-conservation organization, the Center for
41、a New American Dream. “Thrift shops prevent that waste from going to landfills (垃圾填理场); they give clothing a second life, provide cheaper clothing for those who cant afford to buy new ones and generate(生气)income for charities. They also provide a way for the wealthy and middle classes to shed(摆脱)som

You pray, you rage, you bargain with God, but most of all you clutch at
46、 any hope, no matter how remote, of a second chance at life.For a few excited days last week, however, it seemed as if the whole world was a cancer patient and that all humankind had been granted a reprieve (痛苦减轻). Triggered by a front-page medical news story in the usually reserved New York Times,
47、all anybody was talking about on the radio, on television, on the Internet, in phone calls to friends and relatives was the report that a combination of two new drugs could, as the Times put it, “cure cancer in two years.“In a matter of hours patients had jammed their doctors phone lines begging for
48、 a chance to test the miracle cancer cure. Cancer scientists raced to the phones to make sure everyone knew about their research too, generating a new round of headlines.The time certainly seemed ripe for a breakthrough in cancer. Only last month scientists at the National Cancer Institute announced
49、 that they were halting a clinical trial of a drug called tamoxifen (他莫昔芬) and offering it to patients getting the placebo (安慰剂) because it had proved so effective at preventing breast cancer (although it also seemed to increase the risk of uterine (子宫的) cancer). Two weeks later came the New York Times report that two new drugs can shrink tumors of every variety without any side effects w
