There are three main types of diabetes; Type 1 Diabetes results from the body not having enough insulin. Type 2 Diabetes mainly happens to those who do not have enough physical exercise,eat too much unhealthy food and get too heavy. Gestational Diabetes is the third main form. It appears when a woman is having a baby. She will probably get well again after the birth of the baby. Diabetes can bring serious problems. People with diabetes, especially the Type 1,will easily get thirsty and hungry, and quickly lose weight. If it is not treated, it will develop rapidly (weeks or months), and cause many long-term complications. All the complications relate to damage to blood vessels, for example, damage to the eyes. It is caused by damage to the blood vessels in the eyes,and results in gradual vision loss and blindness. The complications will greatly increase the risk of diabetes,by which about 75% of the deaths are caused. According to a report from the WHO(World Health Organization)in 2015,about 415 million people have diabetes worldwide, which means 8. 3% of the adults in the world have diabetes. Of all the cases,85% to 90% are Type 2 Diabetes. That is to say,most cases of diabetes result from the unhealthy lifestyle. Diabetes doubles a person's risk of early death. From 2012 to 2015, about 1. 5 to 5 million deaths each year resulted from this disease. The global economic cost of diabetes in 2014 was around 612 billion USD. A healthy lifestyle can help prevent diabetes. Doing a lot of physical activities and having a healthy diet will help have normal body weight. Higher levels of physical activity(more than 90 minutes per day)can reduce the risk of diabetes by 28%.Healthy diet includes foods rich in whole grains and fiber, foods with good fats from nuts,vegetable oils and fish,little sugar,and less red meat. 1.How many main types of diabetes are there? 2.Diabetes can cause serious problems, can't it? 3.If one's body doesn't have enough insulin,which type of diabetes may he have? 4.Do diabetic complications greatly increase the risk of diabetes? 5.What was the global economic cost of diabetes in 2014? __ 6.

In the latter part of the last century there lived a man of science, an eminent proficient in every branch of natural philosophy, who not long before our story opens had made experience of a spiritual affinity more attractive than any chemical one. He had left his laboratory to the care of an assistant, cleared his fine countenance from the furnace smoke, washed the stain of acids from his fingers, and persuaded a beautiful woman to become his wife. In those days when the comparatively recent discovery of electricity and other kindred mysteries of Nature seemed to open paths into the region of miracle, it was not unusual for the love of science to rival the love of woman in its depth and absorbing energy. The higher intellect, the imagination, the spirit, and even the heart might all find their congenial aliment in pursuits which, as some of their ardent votaries believed, would ascend from one step of powerful intelligence to another, until the philosopher should lay his hand on the secret of creative force and perhaps make new worlds for himself. We know not whether Aylmer possessed this degree of faith in man’s ultimate control over Nature. He had devoted himself, however, too unreservedly to scientific studies ever to be weaned from them by any second passion. His love for his young wife might prove the stronger of the two; but it could only be by intertwining itself with his love of science, and uniting the strength of the latter to his own. Such a union accordingly took place, and was attended with truly remarkable consequences and a deeply impressive moral. One day, very soon after their marriage, Aylmer sat gazing at his wife with a trouble in his countenance that grew stronger until he spoke. "Georgiana," said he, "has it never occurred to you that the mark upon your cheek might be removed" "No, indeed," said she, smiling; but perceiving the seriousness of his manner, she blushed deeply. "To tell you the truth it has been so often called a charm that I was simple enough to imagine it might be so. " "Ah, upon another face perhaps it might," replied her husband; "but never on yours. No, dearest Georgiana, you came so nearly perfect from the hand of Nature that this slightest possible defect, which we hesitate whether to term a defect or a beauty, shocks me, as being the visible mark of earthly imperfection. " "Shocks you, my husband!" cried Georgiana, deeply hurt; at first reddening with momentary anger, but then bursting into tears. "Then why did you take me from my mother’s side You cannot love what shocks you!" To explain this conversation it must be mentioned that in the centre of Georgiana’s left cheek there was a singular mark, deeply interwoven, as it were, with the texture and substance of her face. In the usual state of her complexion -a healthy though delicate bloom -the mark wore a tint of deeper crimson, which imperfectly defined its shape amid the surrounding rosiness. When she blushed it gradually became more indistinct, and finally vanished amid the triumphant rush of blood that bathed the whole cheek with its brilliant glow. But if any shifting motion caused her to turn pale there was the mark again, a crimson stain upon the snow, in what Aylmer sometimes deemed an almost fearful distinctness. Its shape bore not a little similarity to the human hand, though of the smallest pygmy size. Georgiana’s lovers were wont to say that some fairy at her birth hour had laid her tiny hand upon the infant’s cheek, and left this impress there in token of the magic endowments that were to give her such sway over all hearts. Many a desperate swain would have risked life for the privilege of pressing his lips to the mysterious hand. It must not be concealed, however, that the impression wrought by this fairy sign manual varied exceedingly, according to the difference of temperament in the beholders. Some fastidious persons -but they were exclusively of her own sex -affirmed that the bloody hand, as they chose to call it, quite destroyed the effect of Georgiana’s beauty, and rendered her countenance even hideous. But it would be as reasonable to say that one of those small blue stains which sometimes occur in the purest statuary marble would convert the Eve of Powers to a monster. Masculine observers, if the birthmark did not heighten their admiration, contented themselves with wishing it away, that the world might possess one living specimen of ideal loveliness without the semblance of a flaw. After his marriage -for he thought little or nothing of the matter before -Aylmer discovered that this was the case with himself.What was Georgiana’s reaction to her husband’s shock(). A. She was speechless with fury.B. She was very dismissive of her husband’s words.C. She was emotionally upset.D. She was quite indifferent.

It doesn’t kill germs better than cooler water, but turning tap temperatures high, the US burns carbon equal to the emissions of Barbados.People typically wash their hands seven times a day in the United States, but they do it at a far higher temperature than is necessary to kill germs, a new study says. The energy waste is equivalent to the fuel use of a small country.It’s cold and flu season, when many people are concerned about avoiding germs. But forget what you think you know about hand washing, say researchers at Vanderbilt University. Chances are good that how you clean up is not helping you stay healthy; it is helping to make the planet sick.Amanda R. Carrico, a research assistant professor at the Vanderbilt Institute for Energy and Environment in Tennessee, told National Geographic that hand washing is often “a case where people act in ways that they think are in their best interest, but they in fact have inaccurate beliefs or outdated perceptions.”Carrico said, “It’s certainly true that heat kills bacteria, but if you were going to use hot water to kill them it would have to be way too hot for you to tolerate.”She explained that boiling water, 212°F (99.98°C), is sometimes used to kill germs - for example, to clean drinking water that might be polluted with germs. But “hot” water for hand washing is generally within 104°F to 131°F (40°C to 55°C.) At the high end of that range, heat could kill some germs, but the sustained contact that would be required would scald the skin.Carrico said that after a review of the scientific literature, her team found “no evidence that using hot water that a person could stand would have any benefit in killing bacteria.” Even water as cold as 40°F (4.4°C) appeared to reduce bacteria as well as hotter water, if hands were scrubbed, rinsed(冲洗)and dried properly.In fact, she noted that hot water can often have an unfavorable effect on hygiene. “Warmer water can harm the skin and affect the protective layer on the outside, which can cause it to be less resistant to bacteria,” said Carrico.Using hot water to wash hands is therefore unnecessary, as well as wasteful, Carrico said, particularly when it comes to the environment. According to her research, people use warm or hot water 64 percent of the time when they wash their hands. Using that number, Carrico’s team calculated a significant impact on the planet.“Although the choice of water temperature during a single hand wash may appear minor, when multiplied by the nearly 800 billion hand washes performed by Americans each year, this practice results in more than 6 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent emissions annually,” she said.That’s roughly equal to the emissions of two coal-fired power plants, or 1,250,000 passenger vehicles, over the course of a year. It’s higher than the greenhouse gas emissions of small countries like El Salvador or Armenia, and is about equivalent to the emissions of Barbados. If all US citizens washed their hands in cooler water, it would be like eliminating the energy-related carbon emissions of 299,700 US homes, or the total annual emissions from the US zinc or lead industries.The researchers found that close to 70 percent of respondents said they believe that using hot water is more effective than warm, room temperature, or cold water, despite a lack of evidence backing that up, said Carrico. Her study noted research that showed a “strong cognitive(认知的) connection” between water temperature and hygiene in both the United States and Western Europe, compared to other countries, like Japan, where hot water is associated more with comfort than with health.The researchers published their results in the July 2013 issue of International Journal of Consumer Studies. They recommended washing with water that is at a “comfortable” temperature, which they noted may be warmer in cold months and cooler in hot ones.1．Which can be served as the title of the passage?A.Hot water or cooler water in hand washing?B.Hot water contributes to the serious worsening of our planet.C.Consumption of hot water is unnecessary and wasteful.D.Advantages and disadvantages of using hot water .2．The underlined word scald in paragraph six probably means .A.burnB.improveC.softenD.Wrinkle3．According to the passage, all the following share roughly the same CO2 emissions yearly EXCEPT .A.two coal-fired power plantsB.US zinc or lead industriesC.1,250,000 passenger vehiclesD.El Salvador or Armenia4．Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?A.Boiling water at 212°F (99.98°C) works effectively in killing germs.B.Warmer water can damage the protective layer of the outside skin.C.There is much difference between cold water and hot water in reducing bacteria.D.Americans have inaccurate beliefs or outdated perceptions in hand washing.5．Which of the following is the standard of a comfortable water temperature for washing hands?A.Warmer in winter and cooler in summer.B.Between 104°F to 131°F (40°C to 55°C).C.Below 104°F (40°C) or above 131°F (55°C).D.Warm enough to kill germs and clean up.6．If you want to read stories of this kind afterwards, which of the following magazines will you probably subscribe to?A.Universal Science FictionB.Science & DiscoveriesC.Environment & ProtectionD.Exploration of America
