  Tens of thousands of couples across the United States are racing to get married by April 30.This is the result of a new law that makes illegal(不合法的)immigrants(移民) legal(合法的)if they marry by then.

  The law has sent marriages rising by 50 percent to 300 percent this year in immigrant-rich Los Angeles, Houston and New York.The new law, passed in the last days of the Clinton administration(任期),contains a large number of measures to help immigrants and their loved ones become legal.

  Critics(批评家)say it also brings many marriage frauds(诈骗).A key aspect allows immigrants to look for houses while remaining in the USA-if they are married to a citizen or legal resident and hand in applications by April 30.After the date, applicants will have to return to their native countries to deal with their paperwork-a requirement that could take as long as 10 years.

  Demand for marriage licenses in Manhattan this year jumped from 100 a day to more than 300.The Los Angeles County registrar(户籍员)recorder's office supplied 12 997 marriage licences during January and February, and 59 percent increase over last year.

  Critics say the new law encourages false marriage.There are a lot of frauds as people rush to make use of this window.In the past cases citizens or legal residents were paid US $10 000 or more to marry illegal immigrants in which immigration is concluded may be investigated for as long as the years after the vows.

  “It's not worth the risk to attempt an illegal marriage, ”says INS spokesman Bill Strassberger.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

  Is bottled water better for you than tap? Or should you choose vitamin-enriched water? Experts say, skip it all.None of these products is likely to make you any healthier.Below, we look at four major myths about the benefits of drinking water.  1   Experts say there’s an easy way to judge.If you are not thirsty, your fluid intake is likely “just right”

  Myth No 1:Drink eight glasses each day.

  Scientists say there’s no clear health benefit of drinking so much water a day.  2   “Nobody really knows,” says Dr.Stanley Goldfarb, a kidney expert at the University of Pennsylvania.

  Myth No.2:Lots of water equals healthier skin.

  The body is already 60 percent water.  3   Adding a few extra glasses of water each day has a limited effect.“It’s such a tiny part of what’s in the body,” says Goldfarb.“ It’s very unlikely that one’s getting any benefit.”

  Myth No.3:  4  

  A more accurate statement may be:Drinking water is a helpful tool for dieters.“Water is a great strategy for dieters because it has no calories,” says Madeline Fernstrom of the University of Pittsburgh.“So you can keep your mouth busy without food and get a sense of satisfaction.” But water is not magical, she adds.“Other zero-calorie options such as diet sodas are fine, too.”

  Myth No.4:It’s easy to get dehydrated(脱水的)during a workout.

  Dehydration sets in when a person has lost 2 percent of his or her body weight.  5   “It’s also obvious that individuals in hot, dry climates have an increased need for water,” says Goldfarb.“But for a walk in the park, no water bottle is necessary.”

A.So where does the standard advice come from?

B.But it’s unclear whether these changes are clinically significant.

C.So for a 200-pound man, this means losing 4 pounds of water.

D.Drinking extra water leads to weight loss.

E.Drink as much water as you can.

F.So, if you take a 200-pound man, he’s 120 pounds of water.

G.But first, how do you know if you’re drinking enough water?
