father

and

Jimmy

were

inseparable.

They

ate

breakfast

together

and

on

drove

off

to

the

every

morning

where

they

both

worked-Jimmy

unloaded

color-coded

boxes.

父親和吉米形影不離。他們一道吃早飯，平時每天早上一道開車去海軍航運中心，他們都在那里工作，吉米在那搬卸標(biāo)有彩色代號的箱子。晚飯后，他們一道交談，玩游戲，直到深夜。他們甚至用口哨吹相同的曲調(diào)。

So

when

my

father

died

of

a

heart

attack

in

1991,

Jimmy

was

a

wreck,

beneath

his

careful

disguise.

He

was

simply

in

disbelief.

Usually

very

agreeable,

he

now

quit

speaking

altogether

and

no

amount

of

words

could

penetrate

the

vacant

expression

he

wore

on

his

face.

I

hired

someone

to

live

with

him

and

drive

him

to

work,

but

no

matter

how

much

I

tried

to

make

things

stay

the

same,

even

Jimmy

grasped

that

the

world

he’d

known

was

gone.

One

day

I

asked,

”You

miss

Dad,

don’t

you?”

His

lips

quivered

and

then

he

asked,

“What

do

you

think,

Margaret?

He

was

my

best

friend.”

Our

tears

began

flow.

所以，父親1991年因心臟病去世時，吉米幾乎崩潰了，盡管他盡量不表現(xiàn)出來。他就是不能相信父親去世這一事實。通常，他是一個令人愉快的人，現(xiàn)在卻一言不發(fā)，無論說多少話都不能透過他木然的臉部表情了解他的心事。我雇了一個人和他住在一起，開車送他去上班。然而，不管我怎么努力地維持原狀，吉米還是認(rèn)為他熟悉的世界已經(jīng)消失了。有一天，我問他：“你是不是想念爸爸？”他的嘴唇顫抖了幾下，然后問我：“你怎么看，瑪格麗特？他是我最好的朋友。”接著，我倆都流下了眼淚unit2Irondeficiencyisverycommonamongwomeningeneral,affectingoneinfourfemaleteenagersandoneinfivewomenaged18to45,respectively.Buttheratioisevengreateramongactivewomen,affectingupto80percentoffemaleenduranceathletes.Thismeans,Lylesays,that"toomanywomenignoretheamountofirontheytakein".Womenofchildbearingageareatgreatestrisk,sincetheirmonthlybleedingisamajorsourceofironloss.Plus,manyhealth-consciouswomenincreasetheirriskbyrejectingredmeat,whichcontainsthemosteasilyabsorbedformofiron.Andbecausewomenoftenrestricttheirdietinanefforttocontrolweight,theymaynotconsumeenoughiron-richfood,andareliabletoexperienceadeficiency.缺鐵在女性中是很常見的，每四個十幾歲的少女中有一人缺鐵，每五個18至45歲的女性中有一人缺鐵。而在積極鍛煉的婦女中這一比例更高，女耐力運動員中，缺鐵者比例則高達80%。萊爾說，這意味著“太多女性忽視了自己攝入的鐵含量”。育齡女性危險最大，因為月經(jīng)是鐵流失的重要原因之一。此外，許多保健意識太強的女性也很危險，因為她們拒絕食用牛肉或羊肉，而這些肉中含有的鐵最易被吸收。而且，由于女性常常為了控制體重而節(jié)食，從而未能攝取足夠的含鐵豐富的食物，結(jié)果可能導(dǎo)致缺鐵unit3Commitment

在海德中學(xué)的綜合教育中，父母的參與是一個關(guān)鍵的組成部分。為了使孩子被該校錄取，家長也必須同意接受并實踐學(xué)校的思想和觀點。家長們簽約同意每月出席一次區(qū)域小組會議（共20個區(qū)域小組），每年去區(qū)域休養(yǎng)所三天，每年至少參加三次巴思市的研修班、討論組和研討會。在很多活動中，緬因州學(xué)生家長的出席率高達95%。喬和馬爾科姆·高爾德都說，當(dāng)孩子們見到自己的父母都在全力以赴時，他們也會竭盡全力。他們說，對許多家長而言，最困難的是讓他們意識到自己的不足Now,JoeGauldistryingtospreadhiscontroversialCharacterFirstideatopublic,inner-cityschoolswillingtousethetaxdollarsspentonthetraditionalprogramforthenewapproach.ThefirstHydepublicschoolprogramopenedinSeptember1992.Withinmonthstheprogramwassuspended.Teachersprotestedtheprogram'sdemandsandthestrainassociatedwithmoreintensework.現(xiàn)在，喬·高爾德(約瑟夫·高爾德)正試圖將他尚有爭議的“品德第一”的理念向舊城區(qū)的公立學(xué)校推廣。這些學(xué)校愿意將用于傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)計劃的稅金用于實施這一新的教學(xué)方法。海德公立學(xué)校第一個教學(xué)計劃始于1992年9月。但幾個月后，該計劃即告暫停。教師們對教學(xué)計劃的高要求以及高強度工作所帶來的壓力表示抗議。Thisfall,theHydeFoundationisscheduledtobeginapreliminarypublicschoolprograminBaltimore.TeacherswillbetrainedtolaterworkthroughouttheentireBaltimoresystem.OtherUSschoolmanagersareeyeingtheprogram,too.Lastfall,theHydeFoundationopenedamagnetprogramwithinapublichighschoolinthesuburbsofNewHaven,Connecticut,overparents'protests.Thecommunityfearedtheschoolwouldattractinner-cityminorityandtroubledstudents.今年秋天，海德基金會計劃在巴爾的摩啟動初步的公立學(xué)校教學(xué)計劃。教師要接受培訓(xùn)，以便今后能在整個巴爾的摩體系內(nèi)勝任工作。美國其他學(xué)校的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)們也在關(guān)注這個教學(xué)計劃。去年秋天，在家長的一片抗議聲中，海德基金會在康涅狄格
