As a health science major, Id always planned on just applying to medical schools and continuing my studies in some fashion or another c

8、ountry.After four years of intense studies, something just didnt feel right. I felt a strong urge to make a change. It was 2008. I began searching for alternatives to what most university graduates see as their two options: enter the workforce, or continue studying.But I knew I wanted something comp

9、letely different. I didnt have money to travel, but I was searching for an idea that could allow me to leave whenever I want.

14、 I start My Business by My Own EffortsIf you were suffering from depression, you would turn to sugary holiday desserts, which were usually considered to help people feel relieved. However, if now you are in the same situation, you will only say “bah humbug” to them for indeed its absolutely absurd.R

15、ecently, a new study from a team of clinical psychologists at the University of Kansas suggests that added sugar can cause inflammation (发炎) and processes of metabolism and nerve system, all of which are tied to depressive illness. Coupled with decreasing light in wintertime and related changes in s

16、leep patterns, high sugar consumption could result in negative effects on mental health, according to the researchers.The researchers found that inflammation is the key physiological effect of dietary sugar related to mental health. “A large number of people with depression have high levels of syste

17、mic inflammation,” said Stephen Ilardi, a coauthor of the study. “When we think about inflammatory disease, we think about diabetes, a disease with a high level of systemic inflammation. We dont normally think about depression included in that, but it is not for everyone whos depressed, but for abou

18、t half. We also know that inflammatory hormones can direly push the brain into a severe depression. An inflamed brain is typically a depressed brain. And added sugars cause inflammation to the body and brain.”The problem is worse this time of year. “For many people, reduced sunlight exposure during

19、the winter will disturb biological rhythms, disrupting healthy sleep and pushing 5 to 10 percent of the population into a fully clinical depression,” Ilardi says.8What kind of emotion do the underlined words “bah humbug” express in Paragraph 1?AEnvy.BSatisfaction.CPreference.DDislike.9Which factor m

21、ort his idea that dietary sugar results in depression.CTo draw a conclusion that inflammatory disease can cause diabetes.DTo give more details about the possible results of mental depression.11What does the text mainly talk about?AThe importance of mental health.BThe damage to mental health from sug

22、ar.CThe sugar treatment for depression.DThe number of people with depression.Youve probably heard that you need to move more throughout the day, and as a general rule of thumb, “more” is often defined as around 10,000 steps. Many people use the 10,000-step rule as their marker for healthy living. As

23、 more people track their steps by fitness-tracking wearable or their iPhones, more of them do that.But while sitting less is a great idea, the step rule isnt as black and white as one number.Dr. Creg Hager, professor at Johns Hopkins, decided to take a closer look at whether the step rule is accurat

24、e, and he found asking everyone to shoot for 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly, or the level of exercise could make it unwise for those with medical conditions. He also noted that those with shorter legs have an easier time hitting the 10,000-step goal because they have to take m

25、ore steps than loge-egged people to cover the distance.How many steps can help keep healthy and promote longevity (长寿) on earth?Researchers found that women taking 4,400 steps per day were about 40% less likely to die during a follow-up period of just over four years, compared to those who took 2,70

26、0 steps. Women in the study who walked more than 7,500 steps each day got no extra in longevity. The bottom line is that 10,000 steps may be too many for some and too few for others. Some of that has to do with age but nothing to do with health and longevity. The study included nearly 17,000 women w

27、ith an average age of 72.The point of these studies isnt to say we should abandon step goals and fitness trackers altogether. The key is finding the step goal that matches your individual health according to your doctor or fitness instructor, and then using your fitness tracker and other proper meth

28、ods to help achieve those goals.12What do people usually take as their standard of healthy living?AThe 10,000-step rule.BThe fitness tracking wearables.CThe level of exercise.DThe point of these studies.13Which best describes Dr. Greg Hagers attitude towards the step rule?AOptimistic.BNegative.CSkep

29、tical.DFavorable.14What did the researchers find?AFollowing 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly.BTaking steps may not be directly related to peoples longevity.CWalking during the day is closely linked to the death of the elderly.DOlder women with an average age of 72 in the study l
