4.Some people don't drink coffee.Are you fond of drinking coffee?Here is something you can use as an argument every time someone warns you against drinking your third cup of coffee for the day:Coffee may actually add some years to your life.
A paper published recently in the New England Journal of Medicine details a study that began in 1995.A total of 402,260people tested (none of whom had heart disease or cancer) between the ages 50and 71were asked about their coffee drinking habits.Only 42,000of all the test subjects were non-coffee drinkers,while most of them admitted to drinking two or three cups a day.
By the year 2008,52,000of the people tested had already died.Based on the data gathered by the researchers,men who drank two or three cups of coffee daily were 10% less likely to die,while it went up to 13% for women.
Researchers haven't been able to tell what it is in coffee that benefits your health----it could be any one of coffee's many components.It's clear that more research is needed to establish the connection between drinking coffee and having a longer life,but Dr.Frank Hu of Harvard School of Public Health believes it's"the best evidence we have".
Before you get up from your seat to get another cup of coffee---don't forget to check the tips on making great coffee---Dr.Hu has two pieces of advice for you.First,avoid cream and sugar and anything that could affect the health nature of coffee.Second,filter(过滤)your coffee beans instead of boiling them,because filtering removes the components that can raise your cholesterol (胆固醇) level.

A.People should not drink their third cup of coffee.
B.Drinking coffee every day may help people live longer.

B.coffee has greater influence on men than women
C.women benefit more from drinking coffee than men

A.To tell us how to reduce our cholesterol level.
B.To warn us about the harm of cream and sugar.

13.Susan:I want to go to Paris again.I think it's perhaps (61)the most cultured city in the world.
Billy:But you (62)have seen (see) the famous museums and palaces there already.Won't you get (63)bored (bore) if you see them again?
Susan:Oh,Billy,you don't understand.The real (64)attraction (attract) of Paris doesn't lie in those famous science spots,though they are (65)certainly(certain) worth visiting.It lies in the life in Paris and the style of the Parisians.
Billy:Do you mean that you feel good just walking around the city?
Susan:Exactly!I find (66)it so relaxing to take a walk along the Seine River.And I also find the French can transform everyday objects (67)into works of art!
Billy:That's true.Even the little fountains and the iron garden gates have very delicate designs.
Susan:Yes,you're right.And with the evening (68)coming (come) to Paris,I felt even better when I heard music floating from the concerts in the cathedrals.
Billy:Parisians love music.Did you taste any of the French cuisine (菜肴)?It's said (69)that a person has never tasted the true flavor of France until he has dined in Paris.
Susan:Yes,I did.Both the food and the atmosphere in the restaurants (70)are (be) wonderful.
