11、ssicas parents were lawyers and expected her to follow suit. So she went to law school, got a job at a great firm in Washington, DC, and worked as a lawyer for a decade. But her heart was never in it. “I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction,” she says. Jessica found pleasure in the same thi

12、ng that had brought her joy since joining the church choir at the age of 12. “Singing always felt like communicating something real at a spiritual and emotional level,” says Jessica. Yet she never considered it a career option. “That seemed like something people did in fairy tales, and I would never

13、 let my parents down,” she says. It was her moms diagnosis of brain cancer in 2009 that made Jessica realize she had to write her own happy-ever-after. “Work was busy and my mother was ailing.

19、 scientist at the Rand Corp and the author of the book A Big Fat Crisis: The Hidden Forces Behind the Obesity Epidemic and How We Can End It. According to the book, there are lots of misunderstandings of obesity. 1. If youre obese, blame your genes. Obesity rates have increased. Yet, between 1980 an

20、d 2000, the number of Americans who are obese has doubledtoo quickly for genetic factors to be responsible. At restaurants, a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before, because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home, so people who eat out more frequen

21、tly have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.2. If youre obese, you lack self-control. Research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor dietary choices. Our world has become so rich in temptation that we can be led to consume too much in

22、ways we cant understand. Even the most vigilant(警覺(jué)的) people may not be up to the task of controlling themselves. 3. Lack of access to fresh fruits and vegetables is responsible for obesity. Although the US Department of Agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 percent of Americans live in the “food d

23、eserts”, about 65 percent of the nations population is overweight or obese. For most of us, obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruits and vegetables, but to the choices we make in supermarkets. 4. The problem is not that we eat too much, but that we dont exercise. Michelle Obamas “Lets M

24、ove” campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more, childhood obesity rates will decrease. But there was no significant decrease in physical activity levels as obesity rates climbed in the 1980s and 1990s. In fact, although a drop in work-related physical activity may account for up to 10

25、0 fewer calories burned, leisure physical activity appears to have increased. The problem is that we eat too much. 25.

Lacking self-control leads to obesity.CTIME is an American weekly news magazine published in New York City. It was created in 1

28、923 by Briton Hadden and Henry Luce, making it the first weekly news magazine in the US. Hadden was considered carefree, liked to tease Luce and saw TIME as important but also fun. That accounted for its heavy coverage of celebrities(including politicians), the entertainment industry, and pop cultur

29、ecriticized as too light for serious news. It tells the news through people, and for many decades, the magazines cover depicted a single person. On Haddens death in 1929, Luce became the most important man at TIME and a major figure in the history of 20th-century media. TIME is also known for its si

30、gnature red border, first introduced in 1927. It has only changed four times since then. The issue released shortly after the September 11 attacks on the United States featured a black border to symbolize mourning. However, this edition was a special “extra” edition published quickly for the breakin

31、g news of the event; the next regularly scheduled issue contained the red border. Additionally, the April 28, 2008 Earth Day issue, dedicated to environmental issues, contained a green border. The next change in border was in the September 19, 2011 issue, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the Se

32、ptember 11 attacks with a metallic silver border. The most recent change(again with a silver border) was in the December 31, 2012 issue, noting Barack Obamas selection as Man of the Year. TIME has a division magazine, TIME FOR KIDS(TFK), which is especially published for children and is mainly distr

33、ibuted in classrooms. TFK contains some national news, a “Cartoon of the Week”, and a variety of articles concerning popular culture that the younger U.S. citizens are interested in. All the stories in TFK are written by young reporters. In some advertising campaigns, the magazine has suggested that

37、ften use camcorders(便攜式攝像機(jī)) and cell phones to make illegal copies of blockbusters(大片) in the local theater. These pirates then sell those recordings on the street or over the Internet for very low prices. Some share them for free. “Its unfair for people to pirate movies, ” says 15-year-old Hadaia A

38、zad Ezzulddin. Movie piracy “takes money out of the pockets of thousands of people in the movie industry,” she notes. Victims include famous actors and directors as well as local theater owners and their employees. Hadaia came up with an idea that could help stop movie piracy. Hadaias idea uses infr

39、ared(紅外線(xiàn)的) light. This range of light is invisible to the human eye. It is visible, however, to many types of cameras. Theater owners could place small infrared lights on their movie screens. The lights would not disturb people watching the movie. It would, however, distort the recordings made by ma

40、ny types of cameras. To test her idea, Hadaia built a box with a movie screen inside. Then, she projected images on that screen through a hole in the box. She took recordings of those images, using nine different types of cameras. These included the types found in cell phones as well as camcorders.

41、During some tests, she also turned on light emitting diodes(發(fā)光二極管), or LEDs. The LEDs were embedded（植入的） in a certain place behind the movie screen. They gave out infrared light. Sure enough, she showed, a pirated movie included odd stripes or spots if it had been recorded while the LEDs were on. It

42、 might be possible to use the LEDs to flash the date and time on the movie screen. The information would then appear in the illegal recordings. Theater owners or police might use the information to track down the pirates. Cutting down on piracy might get more people into theaters to watch the real m

43、ovie instead of an illegal copy. Six out of every ten films now produced arent profitable. They dont make enough money to recover how much was spent to make and market them. Such a poor payback can discourage filmmakers from producing anything but the types expected to become blockbuster hits. It mi

44、ght also keep smaller theaters from showing a wider variety of movie types. 32. From what Hadaia says in Paragraph 2, we can infer that _. A. most people spend less money on pirates movesB. the pirates dont have to pay for the movie ticketsC. theater owners will increase the price of movie ticketsD.

45、 she strongly criticizes those who video movies in the theater33. Infrared lights are put on the movie screens to _.

This is essential if you are to have a curious mind. Be open to learning, unlearning, and relearning things. 36 Therefore, you should be prepared to accept this possibi

49、lity and change your mind. 37 Most people just accept the world as it is. This way, they will certainly lose the “holy curiosity”. Try to dig deeper beneath the surface of what is around you. A sure way to dig deeper beneath the surface is asking questions. What, why, when, who, where, and how are t

50、he questions curious people always ask. Dont label anything as boring. Whenever you label something as boring, you close one more door of possibilities. Curious people are unlikely to consider things boring. 38 Even if they dont yet have time to explore them, they will leave the door open to be visi

51、ted another time. Take learning as something fun. If you see learning as a burden, theres no way you will want to dig deeper into anything. That will just make the burden heavier. However, if you think of learning as something fun, you will naturally want to dig deeper. 39 Read diverse materials. It

52、 will introduce you to the possibilities and excitement of other worlds which may attract your interest in exploring further. One easy way to do this is through reading diverse materials. 40 Itll feed your mind with the excitement of a new world. A. Never take things as granted. B. Dont spend too mu
