10．Africa is a very diverse land with many different tribes．One tradition that many of these groups share is painting or marking their bodies and faces in color．They do this for many reasons．Some marks are used to identify people as part of a group．（36）B Let's look at some different examples of body painting．
（37）A Among the Masai of East Africa，when men are old enough to marry and make decisions for their people，they participate in a special ceremony in which they paint their heads and faces red．This ceremony takes place every seven to fourteen years，so there is not an exact age for participating in it．The Samburu，also from East Africa，like to paint their faces and hair red because they think it looks attractive．
（38）D To show that he has killed a lion，a man will paint his body with a natural white material，making special marks to represent this accomplishment．The Masai men also use this white to show that they are no longer boys and are considered adults．
One quite unusual example of face painting is done by the Wodaabe people of West Africa．Once a year，they have a beauty contest for men．（39）G Then they add white and black circles and lines．Black paint is used near the eyes and on the lips to draw attention to the whiteness of their eyes and teeth，which the Wodaabe consider most beautiful．（40）E．
As you travel，enjoy the beautiful and bright colors of Africa．

A．Red is the common color in body painting because it often represents health and long life．
B．Other marks are used for ceremonies such as weddings and during times of war．

7．Would you eat a ready meal from the fridge rather than cook by yourself？Have you been doing Internet shopping rather than going to the stores？What can't you be bothered to do？
A study into how lazy British people are has found more than half of the adults are so idle （懒散的）that they'd catch the lift rather than climb two flights of stairs．
Just over 2000 people were quizzed by independent researchers at Nuffield Health，Britain's largest health center．The results were extremely surprising．
About one in six people questioned said if their remote control was broken，they would continue watching the same channel rather than get up．
More than one third of those questioned said they would not run to catch a bus．Worryingly，of the 654respondents with children，64% said they were often too tired to play with them．
This led the report to conclude that it's no wonder that one in six children in the UK are classified as obese （very fat） before they start school．
Dr Sarah Dauncey，medical director of Nuffield Health，said，"People need to get fitter，not just for their own reason，but for the reason for their families，friends and evidently （明显地；显然）their pets too．"
"If we don't start to take control of this problem，a whole generation will become too unfit to perform even the most fundamental tasks．"
And Scotland's largest city，Glasgow，was shamed as the most idle city in the UK，with 75% questioned admitting they do not get enough exercise，followed closely by Birmingham and Southampton，both with 67%．
The results bring serious challenges for the National Health Service，where obesity-related illnesses such as heart disease and cancer have been on a steady increase for the past 40 years and are costing billions of pounds every year．
