7．WASHINGTON-Patients with HIV，the virus that causes AIDS，often develop vitamin deficiencies（缺乏）．A new study has found that giving these patients a multivitamin with  a mineral supplement（补充） helps improve their immunity and slows the disease's progression．Sub-Saharan Africa has always been the center of the AIDS epidemic．In Botswana，despite aggressive prevention campaigns，one out of every four adults is infected with HIV．Professor Marianna Baum based her latest research there．Baum recruited almost 900newly infected adults who had not yet received the anti-AIDS drugs that target the virus．
These adults were then divided into groups that randomly received different combinations of vitamins B，C and E，the mineral selenium or a placebo（安慰剂）．
Most patients with HIV become deficient in these vitamins，which help boost immunity．Baum said she initially thought the multivitamins alone or selenium alone would be effective in strengthening the immune system，but found that to be incorrect．
"We were surprised to find that only the combination was effective，"said Baum．
Research shows that when people with HIV receive anti-retroviral drugs （抗逆转录病毒药物） shortly after infection，they can remain healthy and are less likely to pass the virus to their sex partners．For many countries，however，the cost of these anti-AIDS drugs is still prohibitive．Baum said the vitamin and mineral combination therapy should help low income countries better control the virus．
"A simple multivitamin supplementation with selenium provided early in HIV disease can actually slow the HIV disease progression and it is safe．It is low cost and it should be provided very early in HIV infection，"said Baum．
Baum said the supplements are not meant to replace anti-retroviral therapy，but can help those who cannot obtain the drugs．
Dr．Anthony Fauci，a world renowned expert on AIDS，disagrees．
"I haven't read the paper，but having taken care of HIV-infected individuals for three decades，I would doubt that vitamins are going to have a major effect on  suppressing the virus，"said Fauci．
Fauci said vitamin and mineral supplements may make a patient generally healthier，but the only thing that truly works to suppress HIV is anti-retroviral therapy．Baum's study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association．
25．Where is the passage probably taken？B
A．A scientific report
B．A newspaper
C．A school textbook
D．Science fiction
26．What can we learn from professor Baum's study？D
A．It is vitamin deficiencies that may have caused people to develop AIDS．
B．More than one third of people in Botswana are diagnosed with HIV disease．
C．Professor Baum divided 900HIV patients randomly into several groups．
D．Only the combination of vitamins and the mineral selenium could slow AIDS's process．
27．Which of the statements is possibly supported by Dr．Anthony Fauci？C
A．The finding is great news for low income HIV patients．
B．Vitamins will have a great impact on stopping HIV．
C．Anti-retroviral treatment is effective to stop HIV．
D．Vitamins should be used early in HIV infection．
28．The underlined word"prohibitive"in paragraph 5is closest to"B"in meaning．

14．To forgive is virtue，but no one has ever said it is easy．When someone has deeply hurt you，it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate．However，forgiveness is possible，and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health．People who forgive show less sadness，anger and stress and more hopefulness，according to a recent research．
（16）B Try the following steps：
Calm yourself．（17）F You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure：a beautiful scene in nature，or someone you love．
Don't wait for an apology．Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize．They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way．（18）G Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you．
Take the control away from your offender（冒犯者）．Rethinking about you hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain．Instead of focusing on your mounded feelings，learn to look for the love，beauty and kindness around you．
（19）D If you understand your offender，you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness，fear，and even love．You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender's point of view．
Don't forget to forgive yourself．（20）E But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it．
A．Why should you forgive？
B．How should you start to forgive？
C．Recognize the benefits of forgiveness．
D．Try to see things from your offender's angle．
E．For some people，forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge．
F．To make your anger die away，try a simple stress-management technique．
G．If you wait for people to apologize，you could be waiting an awfully long time．

14．A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops（笔记本电脑）．
Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility（清晰度）．But the research has found laptop users are less able to remember and apply the concepts they have been taught．
Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes"mindlessly"by taking down word for word what the professors said．
In the first experiment，students were given either a laptop or pen and paper．They listened to the same lectures and were told to use their usual note-taking skills．Thirty minutes after the talk，they were examined on their ability to remember facts and on how well they understood concepts．
The researchers found that laptop users took twice as many notes as those who wrote by hand．However，the typists performed worse at remembering and applying the concepts．Both groups scored similarly when it came to memorizing facts．
The researchers'report said，"While more notes are beneficial，if the notes are taken mindlessly，as is more likely the case on a laptop，the benefit disappears．"
In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory，students took notes as before but were tested a week after the lecture．This time，the students who wrote notes by hand performed significantly better on the exam．
These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future．
5．More and more students favor laptops for note-taking because they canB．
A．digest concepts better
B．write more notes
C．get higher scores
D．understand lectures better
6．While taking notes，laptop users tend to beA．
