Chopsticks
Right now, millions of people are digging into their food with two sticks that have stood the test of time as utensil(家庭 用具) for humans. But what's so 36 about them?
Personally, I have used them all my life, but it was only recently I realized the depth of 37 they had in many people's way of life. They teach us the 38 of: Simplicity. They can come in all kinds of colors and sizes but basically they are just two long sticks. There's hardly anything more 39 than two bits of wood being pushed together. With new technology being released everyday, it is sort of refreshing to still have something which has just one 40 -simply to eat. Chopsticks are a living 41 that simplicity simply works and we don't need to keep developing, 42 and fixing things all the time.

The Diary of a Young Girl was written by a girl named Anne Frank. It is a true experience of a teenager in wartime(World War II, 1939-1945) and it has also become a symbol of the victory of the human spirit.
Here’s one of Anne’s diaries.
Friday, 10 September, 1943
Dear Kitty,
Every time I write to you something special seems to have happened, but they are more often unpleasant than pleasant
things. However, now there is something wonderful going on. Last Wednesday evening, 8 September, we sat around listening news of the whole war. Italy has capitulated(投降)!” Italy’s unconditional surrender! The Dutch program from England began at quarter past eight. “Listeners, an hour ago, I had just finished writing the record of the day when the wonderful news of Italy’s capitulation came in. I can tell you that I have never deposited my notes in the anthem, and the “International” were played. As always, the Dutch program was unlifting, but not too optimistic.
Still we have troubles, too, it’s about Mr. Koophuis. As you know, we are all very fond of him, he is always cheerful and amazing brave, although he is never well, has a lot of pain, and is not allowed to eat much or do much walking. “When Mr. Koophuis enters, the sun begins to shine” Mommy said just recently, and she is quite right. Now he has had to go into the
hospital for a very unpleasant operation and will have to stay there for at least four weeks. You really ought to have seen how he said good-bye to us just as usual-he might have simply been going out to do a bit of shopping.
Yours, Anne

B
Heavier people are more likely to be killed or seriously injured in car accidents than lighter people, according to new research.
That could mean car designers will have to build in new safety features to compensate for the extra hazards facing overweight passengers. In the US, car manufacturers have already had to redesign air bags so they inflate to lower pressures, making them less of a danger to smaller women and children. But no one yet knows what it is that puts overweight passengers at extra risk.
A study carried out in Seattle, Washington, looked at more than 26,000 people who had been involved in car crashes, and found that heavier people were at far more risk. People weighing between 100 and 119 kilograms are almost two-and-a- half times as likely to die in a crash as people weighing less than 60 kilograms.
And importantly, the same trend held up when the researchers looked at body mass index (BMI) – a measure that takes height as well as weight into account. Someone 1.8 metres tall weighing 126 kilograms would have a BMI of 39, but so would a person 1.5 metres tall weighing 88 kilograms. People are said to be obese if their BMI is 30 or over.
The study found that people with a BMI of 35 to 39 are over twice as likely to die in a crash compared with people with
BMIs of about 20. It is not just total weight, but obesity itself that’s dangerous.
While they do not yet know why this is the case, the evidence is worth pursuing, says Charles Mock, a surgeon and epidemiologist at the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center in Seattle, who led the research team. He thinks one
answer may be for safety authorities to use heavier crash-test dummies(假人) when certifying cars as safe to drive.
Crash tests normally use dummies that represent standard-sized males weighing about 78 kilograms. Recently, smaller crash-test dummies have also been used to represent children inside crashing cars. But larger and heavier dummies are not used.
The reasons for the higher injury and death rates are far from clear. Mock speculates that car interiors might not be suitably designed for heavy people. Or obese people, with health problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes, could be finding it tougher to recover from injury.
Richard Kent, an expert in impact biomechanics at the University of Virginia, thinks the new research has established a legitimate connection between obesity and severe injury or death. Because the research used BMI data, it has not confused taller (and therefore heavier than average) people with those who are overweight.
People who are obese might also be at risk because seat belts do not hold them as securely in a crash. “For example, a large amount of fat tissue between the restraint system and the bony thorax acts much like a winter coat: it introduces “slack” into the restraint system and decreases its performance,” Kent says.
58. Why do heavy people get injured or killed more easily in traffic accident
A. Because of the air bag B. Because of drunk driving
C. Because of the safety belt D. The reasons is not clearly known yet 59. Who is the most likely to get killed in a car accident?
A. A man who weighs 60 kilograms. B. A man who weighs 50 kilograms. C. A man whose BMI is 35.
D. A man whose BMI is 20.
60. The underlined word “legitimate” in the last paragraph but one means _. A. confusing B. reasonable C. interesting D. lawful 61. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Obesity and risk in driving B. Heavy people and light people C. Obesity and safety belts D. Obesity and its reasons
C
