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 life style and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses． {#blank#}2{#/blank#} So they are called "diseases of civilization"．Many cancersand 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 maindifferences between life in ancient times and that of today.

      Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which hadmuch less fat than domestic ones．They ate a lotof fresh wild vegetables and fruits．They did nothave 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 moresugar．We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein andmuch less vitamin C.

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

A．Stone Agepeople lived a simple life.

B．But today, weenjoy eating a lot of these.

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

D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.

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

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

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

    Maybe you have heard the expression “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”. So when you want to do business in France, you have to get to know French culture, to make marketing plans, and to run your business by local laws．

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The French take great pride in their language, so anyone who does not speak it may run the risk of being disrespected by his French colleagues or business partners. Also, another reason why learning French is important is that it is a great way to show every possible French business partner that you care and respect their country's culture and language．

    Do not begin eating until the host says, “bon appetite”. Pass dishes to the left, keep wrists above the table and try to eat everything on the plate. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}  This may suggest that you find the food tasteless. If eating in a restaurant, the person who invites always pays．

    With the development of modern science and technology, the functions of cellphones have changed greatly. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}The only difference may be that they fit in your pocket and you pay by the minute to use them. Some of the things a cellphone can do for you will be available this year:

Surf at speed

    Cellphones that let you use the Web have been around for years. So, what's new? Well ,  faster third-generation (3G)  networks that let you surf at anywhere. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}Possible choices are from IJG Electronics VX 8000 and Motorola V1150.Listen as you go.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} There is no doubt that it is about to change. Sony Ericsson's new W8001 can hold around 150 songs in its 500 MB memory. And Samsung's SPH-V5400 even comes with a l. 5 GB hard drive. Mobile phones may eventually replace miniMP3 players, especially for teens. Say cheese.

    Camera cellphones are not new either but most of them have limitations: around l- megapixel  (百万像素 ) .  However new technology has made 2-megapixel units more common ,and 3-megapixel units are showing up soon. Some 2-megapixel models, like Sony Ericsson's K7501, offer limited zoom and focus controls.   {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Portable TV.

    You say you like "watching TV"? That's what Samsung MMA700 wants to give you. The new model lets users watch popular TV programmes~ for a fee. Other choices are Nokia's 6620, Sanyo's MM740 and NEC's N940. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    The above are just a handful of what you ' ll see in the coming months.  Further down the road, your mobile phone may play a host of other roles, such as mobile credit card, position locator and so on. So what is there that a cellphone can't do?

A. The NEC model lets you watch public TV - no fee.

B. Without a cellphone, you can do nothing in your daily life.

C. Nowadays, new cellphones are much cheaper than old ones.

D. Today's do-it-all mobiles have a lot in common with the computer.

E. This then allows a carrier to send video, music, and games to your phone.

F. Others, like LG's recent A7110, can even capture 30 minutes of full-motion video.

G. The problem with most cellphone MP3 players is that they hold only a handful of songs.

    We all wish we had just a bit more time. Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring­clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter.

    Get Out of Bed Earlier

    If you normally get up at 7：30 a．m., try getting up at 7：00 a．m. That half­hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you've been meaning to finish. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Do the Important Tasks First

    Once you get to work, get the important ones done first (not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones). You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won't miss the important ones.

    Reduce Interruptions

    If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter. Constant interruptions don't just eat up time, they also break your concentration.

    When you've got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    A few minutes' chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day.

    When you're working, work. If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if you're facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it's easier to deal with.

A．Stay Focused on Your Work

B．Take Breaks When Necessary

C．If you have an office door, close it.

D．If you work like this, you'll usually save time.

E．Would you want me to make your day longer?

F．I can't magically make all your days 25 hours long.

G．Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.

The Four-step Approaches to Managing Anger

Identify the problem. Start by noticing what you're angry about and why. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Ask yourself: What's got you angry? What's your feeling and why? You can do this either in your mind or out loud, but it needs to be clear and specific.

    Think of potential solutions. This is where you stop for a minute to give yourself time to manage your anger. It's also where you start thinking of how you might react—but without reacting yet.

Ask yourself: What will happen for each one of these options?

    Check your progress.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Ask yourself: How did you do? Did things work out as you expected? If not, why not? Are you satisfied with the choice you made? Taking some time to reflect on how things worked out after it's all over is a very important step.

    What will you do if you can't eat everything bought in the canteen? {#blank#}1{#/blank#} According to a survey, what students waste every year could feed over 10 million people.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} According to Xinhua News Agency, the food wasted by Chinese people is about 50 million tons of grain every year, which could feed 200 million people.

    Food waste, which has become a global issue, serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues in different countries. In the West, for instance, consumerism, the belief that it's a good thing to use a lot of goods and services, is often to blame for food waste. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food. On campus, a generation of single children is less aware of the food waste issue. Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil (辛劳) others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} There are over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas. They don't have enough food to eat. Many children die for lack of nutrition each year in some African countries. And farmers work very hard to grow the crops. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} It's also important that everyone should think about how they can do their bit to reduce food waste.

A. Most of us would simply throw away any leftover food.

B. Students' waste is extremely serious.

C. China features its own eating culture.

D. Compared with them, some live in a different world.

E. But canteen waste is merely the tip of the iceberg.

F. So there's no excuse that we should waste our food.

G. Students can never realize the serious food crisis.
