Watching TV
Sitting for hours on end increases your risk of heart attack and stroke（中风），"some exercise doesn't make up for the time you sit，"says Harmony R．Reynolds，Why？The lack of movement may affect blood levels of fats and sugars．Dr．Reynolds advises walking around regularly and，if you're at work，standing up to talk on the phone．
Leaving hostility and depression unchecked
Are you feeling stressed or sad？It can do harm to your heart．While everyone feels this way some of the time，how you handle these emotions can affect your heart health．"Those with stress are in greater danger； research has shown a benefit to laughter and social support，"Dr．Reynolds says．"And it's helpful to be able to go to someone and talk about your problems．"

9．An energy watchdog is alarmed about the threat to the environment from the increasing electricity needs of gadgets（小装置）like MP3players，mobile phones and flat screen TVs．
In a report today，the Paris-based International Energy Agency says new electronic gadgets will be three times their energy consumption by 2030to 1，700terawatt hours（千瓦时），which is equal to today's home electricity consumption of the United States and Japan combined．
The world would have to build around 200 new nuclear power plants just to power all the TVs，iPods，PCs and other home electronics expected to be plugged in by 2030，when the global electric bill to power them will rise to 200 billion a year，the agency said．
"Consumer electronics is the fastest growing area and the area with the least amount of policies in place to control energy efficiency，"said Paul Waide，a senior policy analyst at the agency．
Electronic gadgets already account for about 15 percent of household electric consumption，a share that is rising rapidly as the number of these gadgets multiplies．Last year，the world spent 80 billion on electricity to power all these household electronics，the energy agency said．
"Most of the increase in consumer electronics will be in developing countries，where economic growth is the fastest and ownership rates of gadgets are the lowest，"Waide said．
"This will jeopardize efforts to increase energy security and reduce the amount of greenhouse gases blamed for global warming．"the agency said．Existing technologies could cut down gadgets'energy consumption by more than 30percent at no cost or by more than 50percent at a small cost，the agency estimates，meaning total greenhouse gas emissions（排放） from households'electronic gadgets could be held stable（稳定的） at around 500million tons of CO2per year．
55．How many terawatt hours did the energy consumption of new electronic gadgets reach？B
A．Nearly l，700．B．Nearly 600．C．About 200．D．About 60．

2．We don't know how different our future will be in the future．We can only try to imagine it．
At first we think about human relationship．In the year 2050，we will use computers almost every day．We will be making new friends through the Internet----even our husbands or wives will be met in this way．It will be much faster and easier for us．On the other hand，our relationships with people won't be as important as they are today----we will feel a little lonely．
Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050．For example，they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier．In addition，there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers，like robots which will do the housework for us．
Spending holidays will also be completely different．Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone．Means of transport will，of course，change，too．We will be using solar-powered cars，which will be much more environmentally friendly．
We could expect that the faster technological progress would lead to a more polluted environment．But it isn't true．We will pay more attention to protecting the environment．And，scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases，like cancer or AIDS．Therefore，our surroundings as well as our health will be in a better condition．
Although we can't predict the exact changes which will be made in the world，we often think about them．We worry about our and our children's future； we have expectations，hopes as well as fears．But I think we should be rather sanguine about our future．We should be happy and believe good things will happen．
