We’ve reached a strangesome would say unusualpoint.While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO)more people now die from being overweightor sayfrom being extremely fatthan from being underweight.It’s the good life that’s more likely to kill us these days.

Worsenearly l8 million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight.What’s going on?

We really don’t have many excuses for our weight problems.The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public?health campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through—up to a point.

In the 1970sFinlandfor examplehad the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause.Not any more.A public?health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades.

Maybe that explains why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body.That has become a sort of fashion.No wonder it ranks as the world’s most body?conscious country.

We know what we should be doing to lose weight—but actually doing it is another matter.By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise.More than half of us admit we lack willpower.

Others blame good food.They sayit’s just too inviting and it makes them overeat.Still others lay the blame on the Americanscomplaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American?style fast food.

Some also blame their parentstheir genes.But unfortunatelythe parents are wronged because they’re normal in shapeor rather slim.

It’s a similar story around the worldalthough people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight.Parents are eager to see their kids shape up.Do as I saynot as I do.

1.What is the“strange”point mentioned in the first sentence?

AThe good life is a greater risk than the bad life.

BStarvation is taking more people’s lives in the world.

CWHO report shows people’s unawareness of food safety.

DOverweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO’s efforts.

2.Why does the author think that people have no excuse for being overweight?

AA lot of effective diet pills are available.

BBody image has nothing to do with good food.

CThey have been made fully aware of its dangers.

DThere are too many overweight people in the world.

3.The example of Finland is used to illustrate________.

In my living roomthere is a plaque () that advises me to“Bloom (开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy.I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980swhen I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in BarbourvilleKentucky.The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program.Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who“bloomed”in her remote area.

Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan CountyKentuckyAppalachian Mountain area.To get to her school from the town of HarlanI followed a road winding around the mountain.In the eight?mile journeyI crossed the same railroad track five timesgiving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times.Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountainsI found it depressing.The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.

Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students.Her enthusiasm never cooled down.When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate CertificationDorothy was ready.She came to the assessment and passed in all areas.Afterwardshe invited me to the one?and?only steak house in the area to celebrate her victoryas if she had received her Ph.D.degree.After the mealshe placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand.She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝)but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right familyand others believe that success mostly comes down to luck.I’m not going to say lucktalentand circumstances don’t come into play because they do.Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligenceand that’s just the reality of how life is.

Howeverto succeed in lifeone first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.Andin addition to thatin order to get really good at somethingone needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practising.To become great at certain thingsit’ll require even more timetime that most people won’t put in.

This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love.If you don’t enjoy what you doit is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.

When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great successyou know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talentbut thinking that way does you no goodand there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.

Whatever you doif you want to become great at ityou need to work day in and day outalmost to the point of addictionand over a long period of time.If you’re not willing to put in the time and workdon’t expect to receive any rewards.Consistenthard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may wantbut it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.

We’ve considered several ways of paying to cut in linehiring line standersbuying tickets from scalpers (票贩子)or purchasing line?cutting privileges directly fromsayan airline or an amusement park.Each of these deals replaces the morals of the queue (waiting your turn) with the morals of the market (paying a price for faster service)

Markets and queues—paying and waiting—are two different ways of allocating thingsand each is appropriate to different activities.The morals of the queue“First comefirst served”have an egalitarian(平等主义的) appeal.They tell us to ignore privilegepowerand deep pockets.

The principle seems right on playgrounds and at bus stops.But the morals of the queue do not govern all occasions.If I put my house up for saleI have no duty to accept the first offer that comes alongsimply because it’s the first.Selling my house and waiting for a bus are different activitiesproperly governed by different standards.

Sometimes standards changeand it is unclear which principle should apply.Think of the recorded message you hearplayed over and overas you wait on hold when calling your bank“Your call will be answered in the order in which it was received.”This is essential for the morals of the queue.It’s as if the company is trying to ease our impatience with fairness.

But don’t take the recorded message too seriously.Todaysome people’s calls are answered faster than others.Call center technology enables companies to“score”incomings calls and to give faster service to those that come from rich places.You might call this telephonic queue jumping.

Of coursemarkets and queues are not the only ways of allocating things.Some goods we distribute by meritothers by needstill others by chance.Howeverthe tendency of markets to replace queuesand other non?market ways of allocating goods is so common in modern life that we scarcely notice it anymore.It is striking that most of the paid queue?jumping schemes we’ve considered—at airports and amusement parksin call centersdoctors’officesand national parks—are recent developmentsscarcely imaginable three decades ago.The disappearance of the queues in these places may seem an unusual concernbut these are not the only places that markets have entered.

1.According to the authorwhich of the following seems governed by the principle“First comefirst served”

ATaking buses.

BBuying houses.

CFlying with an airline.

DVisiting amusement parks.

2.The example of the recorded message in Paragraphs 4 and 5 illustrates________.

Athe necessity of patience in queuing

Bthe advantage of modern technology

Cthe uncertainty of allocation principle

Dthe fairness of telephonic services

3.The passage is meant to________.

Ajustify paying for faster services

Bdiscuss the morals of allocating things

Canalyze the reason for standing in line

Dcriticize the behavior of queue jumping
