【题目】There are four million people with diabetes (糖尿病) in the UK—that’s one in every 16 people. There are two main types of diabetes: Type 1 and Type 2. Type 1 is less common and is not preventable. In the UK, 90% of diabetes are Type 2. It has something to do with weight gain and a sedentary (久坐的) lifestyle, but there are other risk reasons. The good news is that around 80% of cases of Type 2 diabetes are preventable.

Are you at risk?

Type 2 diabetes can come on slowly. It may not be easy to find the signs. So it is important to understand the risk reasons. People with Type 2 diabetes can feel thirsty, tired and need to go to the toilet more often.

Tips on preventing Type 2

If you have Type 2 diabetes, it is very important to control your weight. If you are overweight, Type 2 diabetes can be avoided by reducing your weight.

Exercise is necessary for good health. It not only helps to keep a healthy weight, but can lower blood-sugar levels because it helps your body to use insulin (胰岛素) more effectively. To have high levels of everyday activities, including walking, housework, playing with children and hobbies—anything that gets you moving.

Also, a healthy diet will help you manage your weight. Vegetables and fruits are low in calories and are rich in vitamins, minerals (矿物质) and fiber (纤维). This is important for good digestion (消化) and slows down the sugars into the blood. However, some types of fruits are high in sugar, so getting most of your five-a-day from vegetables is better.

Whole grains are good for Type 2 diabetes because the husk (外壳) of the seed is kept. This is often the best part of the grain, with fiber and protein (蛋白). Protein is good for Type 2 diabetes. Fish, meats, eggs, nuts and many beans are rich in protein.

Foods high in both fat and sugar are very bad for your health and should be avoided. Water is the best because there aren’t any calories in it while many other drinks, such as soft drinks, energy drinks and milky coffees are really bad.

【题目】There are millions of charities in the UK. In fact, you can hardly think of any good business that doesn’t have a charity linked (联系的) to it.

The British people are so generous with charities. A lot of people are quite prepared to donate money to charities, even when they are short of money themselves. There are many reasons why people give money to charities. Sometimes it’s a personal reason, say their parents died of cancer so they give money to cancer research, or of a religious reason. Many religions (宗教) encourage their followers to donate a part of their income (收入) to the poor. Many religious people feel it is their duty to help others as part of their faith (信仰). Still, other people just give donations because they have some spare money and they think it is a good thing to do.

Many people think it is necessary to give donations to charities because they wish to make the lives and situations of those in need better.

The British government has made it quite easy for people to give money to charity as you can pay through your payroll (工资单). So when you get your salary, you automatically (自动地) get some money taken out and give it to charity. Some people have some money taken out to give to charities, such as Save the Children Fund, thinking it is a good way to save children around the world.
