Global warming is the process of earth"s atmosphere heating up. Over the last 100 years, the average
temperature of earth"s atmosphere has gone up 1 Fahrenheit. The weather has not changed exactly the
same way in every area of the planet. But scientists think that the rise in average temperature is already
affecting the earth"s climate.
Many scientists now believe that global warming is caused by cutting down trees, producing more
trash, and polluting the environment which are some of the reasons why the temperature has gone up.
Many scientists believe that the biggest causes of global warming are new human technologies that
release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
The greenhouse effect is not new. Certain gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide
and methane, making it hard for heat energy to go into space. In the past, the climate didn"t change much
because nature produced just the right amount of greenhouse gases to deal with it.
Today, most scientists are pretty sure that the rising temperature can"t be blamed on nature. Ever since
the industrial revolution in the 1700s, humans have relied on machines for daily life. And many of those
machines give off a lot of greenhouse gases. An increase in the release of greenhouse gases from human
activities is throwing nature off balance.
The climate is a very complicated thing, but many scientists agree that the rising atmospheric
temperature has already damaged the environment. Sheets of ice, called glaciers, are melting in Antarctica and other parts of the globe. As glaciers break off and melt into the oceans, they are adding warm water
to the oceans and causing the sea level to rise.
Over the past 100 years, the sea level has risen 6-8 inches around the world. That means land along
the coasts is beginning to disappear under water. Bigger and warmer oceans are also adding to other
weather problems caused by pollution in the atmosphere. Some places have received more rain, others
have had bigger storms and a few areas in the world have experienced unusual droughts. |

Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you
own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment (营养).The old saying "An apple a
day keeps the doctor away "is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and
vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form,
believing that these will make them healthy.
But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The
body doesn"t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?

Some weight-loss camps, which are rare in China just a few years ago, have sprouted
(迅速出现) in Beijing, Qingdao, Shenzhen, and other cities. Today about 15 percent of
adults, or 200 million Chinese, are reportedly overweight. Of these, 90 million-about 7
percent-are obese.
Experts say the obesity epidemic (流行病) is spreading to children, though more slowly
than in adults. The trend, they say, will have a huge impact on the health of China"s citizens
and economy. "We"re seeing a very large proportion of children and adolescents who are
quite heavy and aren"t moving much," said Barry Popkin, a nutrition professor. Popkin
carries out an ongoing health-and-nutrition survey of 16,000 households in China. He says
more kids today are overeating and putting on weight "quite quickly." In just ten years China"s
childhood obesity rate has doubled, with the greatest gains coming in urban areas. "In big cities
it"s a big problem."
Some experts blame the extra fat on a range of factors, many of them tied to China"s rapidly
changing economy and culture. The diets of Chinese adults and children are far higher in
calorie-laden meats, fish, eggs, dairy products, fats, and sugars than ever before. In addition,
kids-especially city children-are more sedentary today and spend more time indoors in front
of homework, television, computer games, and the Internet.
Shuwen Ng, a health economist, says that kids in China now have pocket money, and they
spend a part of it on junk food. Ng adds that advertising and peer (同龄人) groups influence
kids" food choices. Certain foods, such as new candies or fast food, have attractive features.
China"s childhood obesity rate are still less than that of the United States, where some 15 percent
of kids are said to be obese. But the long-term effects are equally serious. |

Why does the rate of heart attacks increase during the World Cup football finals? How can
we help an overweight patient to lose weight? They"re just some of the topics covered in a new
book by University of Sussex academics, which is helping student doctors to consider the
importance of psychology in medical practice.
Psychology for Medicine is the first textbook of its kind, providing medical trainees and new
doctors with all the relevant psychological knowledge they need. Previously, students had to
refer to many different books for the relevant psychology.
The book, by Sussex psychologists Dr. Sussex Ayers and Dr. Richard de Visser, has been well
received by fellow academics and medical doctors and was finished with the help of the students
and staff of the Brighton and Sussex Medical School. The students proofread(校对) the chapters,
provided ideas for the content and even modeled for the photographs. The book provides a solid
grounding in psychological study relevant to medicine, along with practical tips and advice for
practice. One student, Simon Hall, drew cartoons for the book.
The study psychology is important for doctors for a number of reasons. Psychological and
physical symptoms are highly related. Up to a third of patients will have psychological disorders,
while physical causes are usually only found in around 15 per cent of people"s symptoms. In
treatment, a lot of the effect drugs can be due to patients believing they will recover rather than
the drug itself.
Dr. Ayers says, "The important thing about this book is that it"s applied science --- it shows
why psychology is important to medicine and how we should use it. The book"s presentation is
really important. It"s not just lots of theory, but full of tips and advice so that students can take
what they learn in the classroom and apply it to real-life situations." |

We all need a vacation, whether with the entire family or your significant other. Unfortunately, many of
us will not be able to follow through with vacation plans. But now, there is an alternative that is catching on rather quickly and it is called a "Staycation". A staycation is just what it sounds like, a vacation but you stay at home. It might not sound interesting, but you can turn it into a fun and relaxing getaway.
Tell family and friends your plans. In their eyes you are truly on vacation and they only need to contact you in case of an emergency.
Go outside; don"t let the kids sleep all day. Go out and birdwatch, go fishing, explore the parks and
nature, take in all you can of the outside world. You can even have a relaxing day at the beach, soak in
some sun, and let the kids go swimming.
Go on a picnic; have the kids fly kites. Bring some bubbles, and have a nice day with the wind blowing
in your hair. Watch as the kids run and play and enjoy the beautiful outdoors.
Camping is another fun way to have a staycation. If you have a camping ground in your area, you can
go camping for a day or two and show the kids how it is to live right in the heart of Mother Nature.
Just remember, it really doesn"t matter where you decide to go, whether home or away. As long as you create quality time with your family you can strengthen the bonds that may have been pushed aside during

International volunteering does not only mean helping people who are in need. There are also some
animals that need voluntary help. Compared to humans, animals are luckier because they do not know how to express their emotions (情感). They do not know how to express what they want and they do not
know how to express what makes them hurt. Some people may think that volunteering to help animals is
hard; it may be true but _____.
If you volunteer to help animals in China, you can help support the endangered (濒危的) species of
pandas. The country of Costa Rica offers a sea turtle conservation area (保护区). You can work on the pacific coasts or in the Caribbean and save one of the most unusual creatures in the world, the sea turtles. But if you want thrills and adventures, you can volunteer to help feed those rare white lions in the Lion Park in Johannesburg, a city of South Africa and have fun with other wild animals. You can also go to
Guayaquil, Ecuador where international volunteer programs have been offered include helping animals like crocodiles. Volunteering in Malaysia is a great experience too. Taking good care of the orangutans
(猩猩), feeding them right and saving them from any illness are just some of the things you can do. Aside
from the countries being mentioned above, you can also volunteer in some other countries that have the
same volunteer program being offered. |
