Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations．They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago．{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly．Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses．{#blank#}2{#/blank#} So they are called "diseases of civilization"．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.

    Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none．{#blank#}3{#/blank#} However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.

    Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones．They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits．They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains．{#blank#}4{#/blank#} We eat six times more salt than our ancestors．We eat more sugar．We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.

 A．Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".

 B．People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.

 C．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.

 D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.

 E．In that case, they would live much healthier.

 F．But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.

 G．Stone Age people lived a simple life.

    A single cigarette sold on a street comer may not cost a lot; however, the total costs of smoking are huge.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. The World Health Organization says about 10 people die of a tobacco-linked disease every minute. That rate adds up to almost six million people dying from such diseases every year. Most of these preventable deaths happen in low-income and middle-income countries. The World Bank says each of these countries has a total national income of less than $ 12,746.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}. The number is expected to rise to 8 million by 2030 unless immediate action is taken.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. For most people, stopping smoking is hard. Many began smoking as teenagers. They are used to it. Also, tobacco contains the powerful drug nicotine. Studies show people who want to stop smoking can do so with different treatments. Some get help from electronic cigarettes or medicine that reduce one's desire for the drug. Dr. Nancy Rigotti works at Massachusetts General Hospital in the United States. She says she finds that medicine and services together work best of all.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. It can influence the health of an entire country. The World Health Organization says low-income countries depend heavily on taxes from cigarettes. They use the money, in part, to pay the costs of health care for tobacco-related diseases.

    After Steve Jobs died, his friend Larry Ellison said something like this. “There will never be another Steve Jobs.” {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Larry wrote this list of Steve's life lessons to remind us all.

    ⒈Love what you do.

Sure Steve became a billionaire when he brought Apple back. Apple was his calling — even after he got fired from the company. We all have bad jobs at one point in our lives. But the question is: am I in the right job? Have I found the right company? Life doesn't go on forever. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    ⒉Don't do it all by yourself.

    Steve learned a great leader can't do it all by himself. He needs people. They must be talented. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}They must be given the opportunity to succeed and fail. In short, we have to learn to be a great leader if we want to see our great ideas and hard work truly have an influence on the world.

    ⒊{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Apple was always the best at creating a new product that meets the exact needs of users. It's empathy (同理心) that helps Apple achieve this. Whenever the user has the first touch with a new Apple product, he says “Wow, it's just what I need.” Remember: you're King in the business world if you know exactly what consumers (消费者) desire.

    ⒋Don't mess around with your health.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}That's the most important lesson from Steve's life. It's great to learn from him but, the fact is that he should still be here if he had treated his cancer properly. Instead, Steve chose a naturopathic (自然疗法) solution that wasn't effective. When he finally decided to take his doctor's original advice, it was too late.

     {#blank#}4{#/blank#}I like Brown Eyed Girl, the Kinks, the Ramones, or an upbeat Beatles tune. You might have your own brand of feel-good music. Whatever it is, let yourself move to the beat. It may just be what the doctor ordered.
