A diabetic, she already was suffering from bulimiaforcing herself to throw up to lose weight. But it wasnt enough, and shed recently put on 20 pounds. Then one day a

30、t a camp for diabetic teens, she heard counselors chew out two girls for practicing “diabulimia“skipping their insulin so they could lose weight, one of the consequences of uncontrolled diabetes. “Dont you realize you could die if you skip your insulin?“ The counselor scolded. “That you could fall i

31、nto a coma or damage your kidneys or your eyes?“ But thats not what registered with Thill, who has Type 1, or juvenile, diabetes. Instead she focused on this: Skipping insulin equals weight loss. For the next 17 years, diabulimia was her compulsion. “I took just enough insulin to function,“ said Thi

32、ll, now 34, of Magnolia, N. J. Today she worries about the long-term damage that may have come from her weight obsession. At 25, a blood vessel hemorrhage in her eye required surgery. At 28, doctors told her she had damaged kidneys. “Im fearful for the future,“ Thill said. “I feel very strongly that

33、 had I taken care of myself, I could have lived as long as anyone without diabetes. I dont think thats going to happen now. “ Diabulimia usually is practiced by teenage girls and young women, and it may be growing more common as the secret is exchanged on Internet bulletin boards for diabetics and t

34、hose with eating disorders. One expert who has studied the phenomenon estimates that 450,000 Type 1 diabetic women in the United Statesone-third of the totalhave skipped or shortchanged their insulin to lose weight and are risking a coma and an early death. “People who do this behavior wind up with

35、severe diabetic complications much earlier,“ said Ann Goebel-Fabbri, a clinical psychologist at the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston. “The American Diabetes Association has long known about insulin omission as a tactic to lose weight. But diabulimia is a term that has cropped up only in recent years

36、 and is not a recognized medical condition,“ said Barbara Anderson, a pediatrics professor at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. Type 1 diabetes is a disorder in which the bodys own immune system attacks insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. People with the disease produce little or no insuli

37、n, so they take shots of the hormone daily. Red flags for diabulimia include a change in eating habitstypically someone who eats more but still loses weightlow energy and high blood-sugar levels. Frequent urination is another signal. When sugars are high, the kidneys work overtime to filter the exce

38、ss glucose from the blood. This purging of sugar from the body through the kidneys is similar to someone with bulimia, who binges and then purges, or vomits. 58 What is bulimia? （ A） A good habit for overweight people to slim their figure. （ B） A dangerous way to lose weight at the risk of many disf

39、unctioning in organs. （ C） A solution for treating diabetics. （ D） A long-term plan for losing weight. 59 Which of the following is NOT a possible fallout for “diabulimia“? （ A） Eye hemorrhage. （ B） Kidney damage. （ C） Weight losing. （ D） Amputation. 60 What does the phrase “cropped up“(Para. 11)mea

40、n? （ A） Come out. （ B） Go up. （ C） Decline. （ D） Pent up. 61 These signs show you suffer from diablimia EXCEPT_. （ A） eating more but still losing weight （ B） low energy and high blood-sugar levels （ C） frequent urination （ D） getting overweight 62 What is the main idea of the passage? （ A） Diabulim

41、ia. （ B） Diabetes. （ C） Obesity, （ D） Insulin. 62 Archaeologist Andrej Gaspari is haunted by pieces of the past. His hometown river, the Ljubljanica, has yielded thousands of themCeltic coins, Roman luxuries, medieval swordsall from a shallow 12-mile(19 kilometers)stretch. Those who lived near and t

42、raveled along the stream that winds through Slovenias capital of Ljubljana considered it sacred, Gaspari believes. That would explain why generations of Celts, Romans, and earlier inhabitants offered treasuresfar too many to be accidentalto the river during rites of passage, in mourning, or as thank

43、sgiving for battles won. But Gaspari may never be able to explain for certain why the Ljubljanica holds one of Europes richest stores of river treasures, many of them remarkably preserved by the soft sediments and gentle waters. Too many pieces of the puzzle have already disappeared. During the past

44、 two decades, sport divers have made the river their playground, removing most of some 10,000 to 13,000 objects found so far. Even though removing artifacts from the Ljubljanica has long been illegal, professional archaeologists have been forced to compete with private collectors. Some divers sold t

45、heir loot to museums: others to the highest bidder. Some kept their treasures private. Many artifacts have left the country, untraceable. Gasparis greatest torment comes from the knowledge that few maverick collectors knowor care where exactly their prizes were found. For an archaeologist, an object

46、s meaning comes as much from its contextlocation, association with other objectsas from the prize itself. Without context, there is no story. Mladen Muck is one of Gasparis tormentors. Now in his 40s, the Bosnian-born architect began diving in the river in 1985 and has brought up about a thousand pi

47、eces. In his kitchen in Ljubljana, a plastic box contains prehistoric tools. Upstairs, dusty cases hold other rare artifacts, including deer antler axes. Muck says he has no intention of selling what he has found. Like many collectors, he babies his goods and claims they are better off with him than

48、 with the authorities. “More people see these artifacts in my house than if I gave them to a museum,“ he says with a dismissive wave. “There they would sit in a basement. “ Gaspari disagrees. “A team at the National Museum of Slovenia is preparing an exhibit of the rivers treasures that will tour Eu

49、rope in 2008,“ he says. Still, he hopes that someday Muck will hand over his items. “My heart is strong,“ quips the 33-year-old archaeologist. If Muck is obstinate, “I will outlive him. “ 63 What treasure does the river NOT bear? （ A） Celtic coins. （ B） Roman luxuries. （ C） Medieval swords. （ D） Sediments and water in the river. 64 Why are treasures in the river disappearing? （ A） Divers are taking them away. （ B） Archaeolog
