Researchers have announced the result of two studies on the health effects of the drug aspirin(阿斯匹林). One study shows aspirin can sharply reduce the chance that a healthy, older man will suffer from a heart attack.
The study offered two new results from earlier findings. It said taking one aspirin pill every other day helped only healthy men over the age of fifty. It also said aspirin gave the greatest protection against heart attacks to men with low blood cholesterol(胆固醇) levels.
Earlier in the United States began a major aspirin study in the early 1980s. it included 22,000 healthy men doctors. All were between the ages of forty and eighty-four. More than 11,000 of the doctors took a harmless pill that contained no drug. The men did not know which kind of pill they were taking.
The doctors who took aspirin suffered 44% fewer heart attacks than those taking the harmless pill. 139 men who took aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Ten of them died. 239 men who didn’t take aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Twenty-six of them died.
The researchers said the doctors’ study provides clear proof that taking aspirin can prevent a first heart attack in healthy, older men. They said ,however, the result does not mean every man over the age of fifty should take aspirin. They said aspirin couldn’t help men who do not eat healthy foods, who smoke cigarettes and who are fat. The researchers said men who think they would be helped by taking aspirin should talk with their doctors first.

Escaping a fire is a serious matter．Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life．It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family，such as stairways and fire escapes，but not lifts．

Have you ever seen snow? Many people in the world have not. Some countries never have snow; some have only a little on the tops of very high mountains. In the north of England, there is quite a lot of snow every winter, but in the south of England, there is usually little.
When a student from a warm country comes to England in autumn for the first time, he feels cold at first. There are often dark clouds, grey sky and cold rain in England in autumn, and most students from warm countries do not like this.
But snow is different. Though it is cold, it is also beautiful. Perhaps, after several dark mornings, the student wakes up one day, and there is a lot of light in his room. He thinks “Is it so late?” and jumps out of bed. But no, it is not very late. He looks out of the window and there is the snow on the ground and on the houses and everywhere. The light of his room comes from clean, beautiful snow.

As we know, everyone has problems. And      we don’t deal with our problems, we can easily become unhappy. So how do we deal with our problems? Here are some ways.
By learning to forget
Most of us have probably been        with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn't like, or you felt unfair. Sometimes, people can stay angry for years about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendships may       .
Perhaps we have seen young children playing together. Sometimes they have disagreements, and decide         to each other. However, this usually does not.            for long. This is an important.         for us: we can solve a problem       learning to forget.
By regarding problems as challenges
Many students often complain about       . They might feel they have      work to do sometimes, or think the school rules are too      We must learn how to change these "problems" into "challenges". Education is an important part of our development.      young adults, it is our duty to try our best to deal with each challenge in our education       the help of our teachers.
By thinking of something worse
By comparing.         to other people, you will find your problems are not so terrible. Think about Stephen Hawking, for example, a very clever scientist,     regards his many physical problems as unimportant. He can't walk      even speak, but he has become very famous and successful. Don’t worry about problems. Let's face the challenges instead.
