16．Why are people interested in eating raw foods or whole foods？One reason is that eating these types of food reduces the risk of acid accumulation in your body．
Raw and whole foods are usually digested more efficiently than cooked and refined foods．When we cook foods，we destroy the natural enzymes（酶）that are part of the food in its raw form．These enzymes were intended by nature to help us digest the food．When we consume food without these natural enzymes，our bodies either digest the food improperly or allow too many nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream．In both instances，the result is obesity．When too many nutrients are absorbed at once，the body grows fat．Improperly digested food moves slowly through the digestive tract，where it becomes increasingly acidic （酸性的）．To protect its vital organs from this acidic waste，the body changes the acid into fat and stores it safely away from the organs．
Processed foods contain chemical elements，which might confuse the appetite mechanism that tells us when we've had enough to eat； as a result，people often overeat．Processed foods also upset the digestive cycle．The body will either identify these foods as allergens and then store them safely away from the organs as fat，or the remains of undigested food will become acidic and enter the bloodstream as acid waste，which will stick to the blood vessel walls and block the passage of vital oxygen and nutrients heading for the body's cells．The body's metabolism（新陈代谢） becomes inactive，and the result is weight gain and obesity．
The accumulation of acid in the digestive tract makes digestion increasingly inefficient．When that happens，even healthy foods can become acidic and the food allergies will become more common．
To stop this vicious（恶性的） circle in its tracks，people need to consume food and supplements that will neutralize （使…中和）the acid already accumulated in body．Eating the right types of raw and whole foods can help．It's also important to restore your enzyme balance．You need to identify and avoid the foods that cause acid accumulation and consume the foods that increase enzyme production．If you truly want to change and help your body heal itself，you need to take an active approach．-Raw and whole foods can be your choice．

6．It was reported last week that developers could take photos from Apple mobile and Google Android devices without the phone owners knowing that the images were being taken．In Apple's case，developers can also obtain the location information for each photo．
Senator（参议员） Charles Schumer said in a telephone interview that his office had spoken with officials at both Apple and Google on Monday．
"We asked them if they could find a way on their own to prevent Apple from having access to private info，"Mr．Schumer said．"They were friendly and open to the idea that this ought to be changed．"
On Sunday，Mr．Schumer said that he planned to send a letter to the Federal Trade Commission（联邦贸易委员会） asking the agency to investigate Apple and Google after the privacy concerns came to light．Claudia Bourne Farrell，an F．T．C．spokeswoman，said the agency had received the letter but she could not comment further．
"It sends shivers up the spine to think that one's personal photos，address book，and who knows what else can be obtained and even posted online without consent，"Mr．Schumer wrote in his letter to the F．T．C．"If the technology exists to open the door to this kind of privacy invasion，then surely technology exists to close it，and that's exactly what must happen．"
Mr．Schumer said if Apple and Google could not come to an agreement to fix the problem，then he would be forced to take the issue further．
He said other companies had been willing to work with his office to fix issues．"I'm optimistic that we can get this changed without any regulation，"he said．"If it's not changed，then we'll look the F．T．C．，and if that doesn't work then we'll look at legislative approach．"
The F．T．C．has warned companies to try to be more vigilant（警醒的） in their efforts to protect consumers when it comes to privacy．

3．subways
The Tokyo Metro and Toei LinesFeatures：The Tokyo Metro and Toei lines that make up of Tokyo's huge subway system carry almost 8 million people each day，making it the busiest system in the world．The system is famous for its oshiya-literally，"pusher"-who push passengers into crowded subway cars so the doors can close．And you think your ride is hell．
The Moscow MetroFeatures：The Moscow Metro has some of the most beautiful stations in the world．The best of them were built during the Stalinist era and feature chandeliers（枝行吊灯），marble moldings and elaborate murals（精美壁画）．With more than 7 million riders a day，keeping all that marble clean has got to be a burden．
The Hong Kong MTRFeatures：The Hong Kong MTR has the distinction of being one of the few subway systems in the world that actually turns a profit．It's privately owned and uses real estate development along its tracks to increase income and ridership．It also introduced"Octopus cards"that allow people to not only pay their fares electronically，but buy stuff at convenience stores，supermarkets，restaurants and even parking meters．It's estimated that 95% of all adults in Hong Kong own an Octopus card．
Shanghai MetroFeatures：Shanghai is the third city in China to build a metro system，and it has become the country's largest in the 12 years since it opened．Shanghai Metro has 142 miles of track and plans to add another 180 miles within five years．By that point，it would be three times larger than Chicago"L"．The system carries about 2.18 million people a day．
The London MetroFeatures：Londoners call their subway the Underground，even though 55 percent of it lies above ground．No matter when you've got the oldest mass-transit system in the world，you can call it anything you like．Trains started in 1863 and they've been running ever since．Some 3 million people ride each day，every one of them remembering to"Mind the gap"

10．When a first-time father saw his newborn son，he immediately noticed the baby's ears obviously standing out from his head．He expressed his concern to the nurse that some children might tease his child．A doctor examined the baby and reassured the new dad that his son was healthy-the ears presented only a minor problem with its appearance．
But the nervous father persisted．He wondered if the child might suffer psychological effects of ridicule，or if they should consider plastic surgery（整形手术）．The nurse assured him that it was really no problem，and he should just wait to see if the boy grows into his ears．
The father finally felt more optimistic about his child，but now he worried about his wife's reaction to those large ears．She had been delivered by operation，and had not yet seen the child．

The baby was in a receiving blanket with his head covered for the short trip through the cold air-conditioned corridor．The baby was placed in his mother's arms，who eased the blanket back so that she could look at her child for the first time．
She took one look at her baby's face and looked to her husband and gasped，"Oh，Honey!Look!He has your ears!"
No problem with Mom．She married those ears…and she loves the man to whom they are attached．
The poet Kahlil Gibran said，"Beauty is not in the face； beauty is a light in the heart．"It's hard to see the ears when you're looking into the light．

15．The story began on a downtown Brooklyn street corner．An elderly man had collapsed while crossing the street，and an ambulance rushed him to Kings County Hospital．There，when he came to now and again，the man repeatedly called for his son．
From a worn letter located in his pocket，an emergency room nurse learned that his son was a marine stationed in North Carolina．Apparently there were no other relatives．
Someone at the hospital called the Red Cross office in Brooklyn，and a request for the boy to rush to Brooklyn was sent to the Red Cross director of the North Carolina Marine Corps camp．Because time was short---the patient was dying---the Red Cross man and an officer set out in an army vehicle．They found the young man walking through some marshes （沼泽） in a military exercise．He was rushed to the airport in time to catch the only plane that might enable him to reach his dying father．
It was dusk when the young marine walked into the entrance lobby of Kings County Hospital．A nurse took the tired，anxious serviceman to the bedside．
"Your son is here，"she said to the old man．She had to repeat the words several times before the patient's eyes opened．The medicine he had been given for the pain from his heart attack made his eyes weak and he could only see the shadow of the young man in Marine Corps uniform standing outside the oxygen tent．He reached out his hand．The marine wrapped his strong fingers around the old man's weak ones，squeezing a message of love and encouragement．The nurse brought a chair，so the marine could sit by the bed．
Nights are long in hospitals，but all through the night the young marine sat there in the dimly lit ward （病房），holding the old man's hand and offering words of hope and strength．Occasionally，the nurse urged the marine to rest for a while．He refused．
Whenever the nurse came into the ward，the marine was there，but he paid no attention to her and the night noises of the hospital---the banging of an oxygen tank，the laughter of the night staff exchanging greetings，the cries and breathing of other patients．Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words．The dying man said nothing，only held tightly to his son through most of the night．
It was nearly dawn when the patient died．The marine placed the lifeless hand he had been holding on the bed，and went to inform the nurse．While she did what she had to do，he smoked a cigarette，his first since he got to the hospital．
Finally，she returned to the nurse's station，where he was waiting．She started to offer words of sympathy，but the marine interrupted her．"Who was that man？"he asked．
"He was your father，"she answered，shocked．
"No，he wasn't，"the marine replied．"I never saw him before in my life．"
"Why didn't you say something when I took you to him？"the nurse asked．
"I knew immediately there'd been a mistake，but I also knew he needed his son，and his son just wasn't here．When I realized he was too sick to tell whether or not I was his son，I guessed he really needed me．So I stayed．"
With that，the marine turned and left the hospital．Two days later a message came in from the North Carolina Marine Corps base informing the Brooklyn Red Cross that the real son was on his way to Brooklyn for his father's funeral．It turned out there had been two marines with the same name and similar numbers in the camp．Someone in the personnel office had pulled out the wrong record．
But the wrong marine had become the right son at the right time．And he proved，in a very human way，that there are people who care what happens to their fellow men．
