　　Breakfast

　　Studies show that children who eat breakfast do better in school It doesn't take much further thought to believe that adults will feel better and perform better at work as well．Whether you work at home，on the farm，at the office，at school，or on the road，it is not a good idea to skip(故意略去)breakfast．

　　If we don't eat breakfast．we are likely to become fired when our brains and bodies run low on fuel. By mid—morning，a lot of us grab a cup of coffee，or wolf down a sugary candy bar to wake up again．This might work for a few minutes，but by lunchtime we are hungry, bad—tempered，and perhaps our mood might make us a 1ittle more likely to make unhealthy choices at lunch．Eating a good breakfast sets the tone for the rest of the day．

　　People who eat breakfast are generally more likely to maintain a healthy weight．Many people believe that they will lose weight if they skip meals，but that isn't a good idea．The body expects to be refueled a few times a day，so start with a healthy breakfast．

　　A healthy breakfast should contain some protein(蛋白質(zhì))and some fiber(纖維)．Protein can come from meat，eggs，beans,or soy(大豆)．Fiber can be found in whole cereals(谷物)，grains or in fruits．A good example of a healthy breakfast might be something simple like a hard boiled egg，an orange，and a bowl of whole grain cereal with soy milk．

　　Old Man Myths and Realities

　　1 When does a middle-aged mall become an old man?

　　3 Although men are living longer, there are still more old women than old men．This fact alone should arouse interest as to why．Relatively little is actually known about why this is the case or about the experiences of the old man．Sure, we are aware that the old man experiences anxiety，financial problems，loneliness，etc．but that't really about all we know．

　　4 It is usually believed that the old man often complains about their health．In fact，most old man think their health is good even though most are diagnosed with at least one chronic illness．The physical health of the old man is strongly affected by their health behavior when they were younger．

　　第一篇

　　US States Do Poorly in Women's Health

　　Not a single US state meets basic federal goals for women's health，and the nation as a whole fails except in two areas—mammograms(乳腺x光照片)and dental(牙齒的) check-ups—researchers said on Thursday

　　Millions of women lack health insurance，and states make it difficult to enroll(加八)in Medicaid．the state-federal health insurance plan for the poor，according to the report．

　　And few states are doing anywhere near enough to help women quit smoking——the leading cause of death in the United States

　　“The nation as a whole and the individual states fall short of meeting national goals，”reads the report．put together by the National Women's Law Center and the Oregon Health＆Science University．“These health goals provide a road map for assessing the status of women's health．”

　　Of 27 measures examined by the group，from screening for diseases to actually treating them．the nation passes on only two，the researchers said“The nation is so far from the health goals that it receives an overall grade of‘unsatisfactory’，”they wrote．

　　The problem seems to be a lack among states of an overall plan for health in general，the NWLC said．

　　“State policy makers' piecemeal(一件一件做的)approach to our health care crisis has resulted in a complex and ineffective system that fails to meet the health care needs of women," Judy Waxman NWLC Vice President for Health，said in a statement．

　　“Lawmakers need to take a comprehensive，long-term approach to meeting women‘s health needs and tackle this serious problem that troubles so many families．

　　Saving Money

　　Where you save your money often depends on what you are saving for．If you are saving to buy a CD(光盤)or to go to a concert，then probably you would keep your money somewhere in your room．

　　If you ale saving for a big purchase like a mountain bike or a school trip，where would you save your money?

　　One place to save money is the bank Putting your money in a savings account will help your money earn more money If you put your money in a piggy bank(豬形儲蓄罐)，one year later you'11 still have the same amount of money you put in．If you put your money in a savings account，one year later,you'll have more money than you put in Why?

　　When you keep your money in a bank．your money earns interest. Interest is an amount of money a bank pays you to use your money The bank uses your money(and the money of other people，too)to loan money to people and businesses

　　The bank will send you a statement several times a year．A bank statement tells you how much money you have in your account It also tells you how much interest you have earned If you leave your money in the bank，you can watch it grow! Another way you can save money is to buy a certificate of deposit or CD．If you have some money that you don't need to use for a long time，this is a good way to make your money grow．You Can buy a CD at a bank You agree not to use the money for a certain period of time That period might be from six months to five years．You can't touch your money during that time If you do，you must pay a penalty，or fee

　　36 Your money will earn more money if you put it

　　第三篇

　　Exercise Lowers Employers‘Health Costs

　　Companies can save millions in health-care costs simply by encouraging their employees to exercise a little bit，researchers reported on Friday

　　They said obese(肥胖的)employees had higher health。care costs，but lowered those expenses by exercising just a couple of times a week——without even losing any weight.

　　Feifei Wang and colleagues at the University of Michigan studied 23，500 workers at General Motors．

　　They estimated that getting the most sedentary(慣于久坐的)obese workers to exercise would have saved about$790,000 a year．or about 15 percent of health—care costs for the whole group Company—wide，the potential savings could reach$7.1 million per year，they reposed in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine．

　　Of the whole group of workers，about 30 percent were of normal weight，45 percent were overweight(超重的)，and 25 percent were obese．Annual health—care costs averaged$2，200 for normal weight，$2,400 for the overweight，and$2,700 for obese employees．

　　But among workers who did no exercise，healthcare costs went up by at least $100 a year，and were$3,000 a year for obese employees who were sedentary．

　　But adding two or more days of light exercise——at least 20 minutes of exercise or work hard enough to increase heart rate and breathing——lowered costs by on average$500 per employee a year，the researchers found．

　　41 How can employees help lower the health—care costs?

　　A By taking more rest．

　　B By eating less．

　　C By exercising a little bit．

　　D By saving more money．
