There is one showing love.and there's another not responding in time.During lifetime, however, it turns out to be a regret and we always think of making it up when it's gone.

A father sat at his desk staring over his monthly bills 21 his young son rushed in and 22  ."Dad.because this is your birthday and you're 55 years old, I'm going to give you 55 23 .one for each year!" When the boy started 24  his agreement, the father exclaimed, "Oh.Andrew, don't do it now; I'm too 25  !" The youngster immediately 26  silent as tears welled up in his big blue eyes.27  the father said, "You can finish later."

The boy said nothing but quietly 28  ,disappointment written 29  his face.That evening the father said, "Come and finish the 30  kisses now.Andrew!" But the boy didn't respond.

Unfortunately, a few days later after this incident, the boy had an   31  and was drowned.His 32  father wrote."If only I 33  tell him how much I regret my thoughtless 34 ,and could be assured that he knows how much my heart is 35  ."

Love is a two-way street.Any loving act must be warmly accepted 36  it will be taken as rejection and can 37  a scar.If we are too busy to give and 38  love, we are too busy! Nothing is more important than 39  with love to the cry for love from those who are near and precious to us, because there may be no 40  at all as in the case of the little boy.

C.O.P.D(慢性障碍性肺病) blocks air flow through the lungs. It makes breathing difficult. The leading cause of C.O.P.D. is cigarette smoking. Experts at the National Institutes of Health in the United States say there is no cure to the damage to the lungs.

Dawn Demeo is an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School in Boston, Massachusetts. She said, “By 2020, C.O.P.D. may be the third leading cause of death across the world.”

C.O.P.D. is a new name for emphysema(肺气肿) and chronic bronchitis(慢性支气管炎). These are the two most common forms of the disease. Many people with C.O.P.D. have both of them. And Doctor Demeo says more women than men now die from the disease.

She is the lead author of a study by a team from Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital and the University of Bergen in Norway. The new study adds to findings that women may be more at risk than men from the damaging effects of smoking.

The team examined results from a Norwegian study of 954 people with C.O.P.D. Inga-Cecilie Soerheim co-wrote the team’s findings. Doctor Soerheim says they show that women suffered the same level of C.O.P.D.as men. But the female smokers were younger and had smoked a lot less.

The team also looked at two groups among the people in the study. These were people under the age of 60 and those who had smoked for less than 20 years. In both cases, women had more serious C.O.P.D. and a greater loss of lung function (功能)than men.

1.Which of the following statements about C.O.P.D is NOT true ______.

Last night was the last game for my eight-year-old son's soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my son's team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.

With less than ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son's teammate, Mickey O’ Donnel. With shouts of "Kick it!" echoing(回响)across the playground, Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted(爆发). O'Donnel had scored!

Then there was silence. Mickey had scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing players when they scored.

The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted, "I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!" For a moment I held my breath, not sure how my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my son threw up his hand in the classic high-five(致礼)salute and started chanting, "Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!" Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal. Mike happily and everyone sent their wishes to him.

Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied, "It was a tie. Everybody won."

The effects of rapid travel on the body are actually far more disturbing than we realize. Jet Lag is not a psychological consequence of having to readjust to a different time zone. It is due to changes in the body’s physiological regulatory mechanisms, specifically the hormonal systems, in a different environment.

     Now that we understand what Jet Lag is, we can go some way to overcome it. A great number of the body’s events are scheduled to occur at a certain time of day. Naturally these have to be regulated, and there are two regulatory systems which interact.

    One timing system comes from the evidence of our senses and stomachs, and the periodicity we experience when living in a particular time zone. The other belongs in our internal clocks (the major one of which may be physically located in a part of the brain called the suprachiasmatic nucleus) which, left alone, would tie the body to a 25-hour rhythm. Normally the two timers are in step, and the surroundings tend to regularize the internal clocks to the more convenient 24-hour period.

     If, however, you move the whole body to a time zone which is four hours different, the two clocks will be out of step, like two alarm clocks which are normally set together, but which have been reset a few hours apart. Whereas the two clocks would normally sound their alarms together, now they ring at different times. Similarly, the body can be set for evening while the sun is rising.

     In time the physiological system will reset itself, but it does take time. One easily monitored rhythm is palm sweating. A man flown to a time zone different by 10 hours will take eight days to readjust his palm sweat. Blood pressure, which is also rhythmical, takes four days to readjust.

What can we do about it? It is not feasible to wait four days until the body is used to the new time zone. Fortunately there is a short cut. It relies on two things-the power of the stomach to regulate the timing of other events, and the pharmacological actions of coffee. The basic assumptions are:

Coffee delays the body clock in the morning, and advances it at night. Coffee at mid-afternoon is neutral. Protein in meals stimulates wakefulness, while carbohydrates promote sleep. Putting food into an empty stomach helps synchronize the body clock.

46. What is jet lag associated with?

  A. Psychological change.            B. Physiological change.

  C. Inexperience of rapid travel.       D. Unfamiliar environment.

47. What helps us to adjust to a 24-hour rhythm?

  A. Alarm clock.                   B. Suprachiasmatic nucleus in our brain.

  C. Signals from outside of the body.   D. Our senses and stomachs.

48. What do we know from the fifth paragraph?

  A. A person moving to a different time zone will suffer from high blood pressure.

  B. A person moving to a different time zone will sweat a lot.

  C. Moving to a different time zone will affect both palm sweat and blood pressure.

  D. If the rhythm of blood pressure and palm sweat are not in step, there will be jet lag.

49. What should we do if we want to stay awake?

  A. To take coffee at three o’clock in the afternoon.

  B. To have meals that contain lots of protein.

  C. To have some carbohydrate drinks.

  D. To stop putting food into our stomach.

50. How can we cure jet lag?

   A. To sleep for days.      B. To wait for self-recovery.

   C. To drink tea.           D. To get something to eat.
