New research shows that overweight or even mildly obese people have a lower risk of early death than people considered to be normal weight.

Researchers examined the results of 97 studies. Most of the studies were less than 10 years old. They included almost three million adults from around the world, including the United States, Canada, China, Taiwan, Brazil, India and Mexico.

The researchers at the National Center for Health Statistics found that people who are considered overweight or slightly obese were five to six percent less likely to die from all causes than people of normal weight. People with higher obesity ratings, however, had almost a 30 percent greater risk of death compared to normal-weight individuals.

Katherine Flegal was the lead author of the study. She says she was not surprised that overweight people would not have a higher risk of death.

“Because we’d actually already read a lot of this literature and realized it was likely that mortality rates (死亡率) for overweight would be at least not higher than normal weight. I guess I was a little bit surprised that it was definitely lower. And I was also surprised that the lower rates of obesity also didn’t seem to differ from normal weight.”

But she says the difference in death rates appears to be small between normal-weight people and those who are overweight or mildly obese.

The study has raised new questions about “body mass index,”（體重指數(shù)） or BMI. This is a measurement of body fat as a ratio（比率） of height to weight. In recent years, many public health experts have promoted body mass index as a way to predict the risk of health problems. Bu t a person's BMI can be misleading in some cases.

Steven Heymsfield ,the executive director of the Pennington Biomedical Research Center, says people can be physically fit and in good health, but might weigh more because they are more muscular.

Still, Dr. Heymsfield says people should not think gaining extra weight is OK just because of the new findings. He says being at a healthy weight lowers the risk for heart disease and diabetes（糖尿�。�.

1.According to the new findings, the researchers found that __________ .

A.People with high obesity have a lower risk of early death than people with low obesity

B.People with overweight have a greater risk of early death than people of normal weight.

C.People with mild obesity are less likely to die than people of normal weight.

D.People with obesity live much longer than people of normal weight.

2.What does the underlined word “l(fā)iterature” in paragraph 6 mean ?

A.works like novels and poems

B.books and articles on a particular subject

C.printed material

D.magazines and newspapers

3.Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?

A. BMI is commonly used to measure body fat as a ratio of height to weight.

B. Not all people with a little higher BMI are fat .

C. Many public health experts encourage more people to use BMI as a way to predict the risk of health problem

D. Because of the ne w findings, people should think about gaining extra weight.

                                                              Marie Curie Biography
      Marie Curie, née Maria Sklodowska, was born in Warsaw on November 7,1867,the daughter of a secondary-school teacher. She received a general education in local schools and some scientific training from her father. She became involved in a students' revolutionary (革命的) organization and found it prudent (深謀遠慮的) to
leave Warsaw, then in the part of Poland dominated by Russia, for Cracow, which at that time was under
Austrian rule. In 1891,she went to Paris to continue her studies at the Sorbonne where she obtained
Licentiateships in Physics and the Mathematical Sciences. She met Pierre Curie,professor in the School of
Physics, in 1894 and in the following year they were married. She succeeded her husband as Head of the
Physics Laboratory at the Sorbonne, gained her Doctor of Science degree in 1903,and following the tragic (悲
劇的) death of Pierre Curie in 1906,she took his place as Professor of General Physics in the Faculty (系,院)
of Sciences, the first time a woman had held this position. She was also appointed (委派) Director of the Curie
Laboratory in the Radium Institute of the University of Paris, founded in 1914.
     Her early researches, together with her husband, were often performed under difficult conditions,
laboratory arrangements were poor and both had to undertake much teaching to earn a livelihood (生計).The
discovery of radioactivity (放射能) by Henri Becquerel in 1896 inspired the Curies in their brilliant (輝煌的)
researches and analyses (分析) which led to the isolation (分離) of polonium, named after the country of
Marie's birth, and radium. Marie Curie developed methods for the separation of radium from radioactive
residues(殘渣) in sufficient (足夠的)quantities to allow for its characterization and the careful study of its
properties, therapeutic (有療效的) properties in particular.
      Quiet, dignified and unassuming, she was held in high esteem(尊敬)and admiration by scientists throughout
the world. She was a member of the Conseil du Physique Solvay from 1911 until her death and since 1922 she
had been a member of the Committee of Intellectual Co-operation of the League of Nations. Her work is
recorded in numerous papers in scientific journals.
     The importance of Marie. Curie's work is reflected in the numerous awards bestowed (給予) on her. She
received many honorary (光榮的) science, medicine and law degrees and honorary memberships of learned
societies throughout the world. Together with her husband she was awarded half of the Nobel Prize for
Physics in 1903,for their study into the spontaneous (自然的) radiation discovered by Becquerel, who was
awarded the other half of the Prize. In 1911 she received a second Nobel Prize,this time in Chemistry, in
recognition (認可) of her work in radioactivity. She also received, jointly with her husband, the Davy Medal
(獎?wù)? of the Royal Society in 1903 and, in 1921,President Harding of the United States, on behalf of the
women of America, presented her with one gram (克) of radium in recognition of her service to science.
Do you think what made Marie Curie achieve so much? In my view
