Hypothermia can be mild, moderate or severe. Mild hypothermia is something that most people in cold climates have experienced at one time or another. You feel so cold that your body starts to shake---not very much, but uncontrollably.

The treatment for mild hypothermia starts with getting out of the cold and, if necessary, changing into dry clothes. Drinking warm, non-alcoholic liquids and eating something sugary can stop the shivering. Taking a warm bath or sitting by a fire or doing some exercise can also help the body warm up. These are all common-sense treatments.

But treatment needs to change when people enter the moderate or severe stages of hypothermia. In that situation, their body temperature drops below thirty-five degrees Celsius. They lose the ability to think clearly. Their muscles become stiff. They might bump into things or fall over objects.

Members of search-and-rescue teams will first try to prevent additional heat loss. They will place extra covering around the chest, head and neck of hypothermia victims to keep them warm.

Hypothermia victims need medical help as soon as possible. Working quickly to get people out of the cold is important. However, hypothermia victims must be moved slowly and gently. Any rough or sudden movement can force cold blood from the arms, legs and hands deep into the warmer middle of the body. This sudden flow of cold blood can create shock, a serious condition. It can also cause an abnormal heartbeat.

Members of search-and-rescue teams have a saying that hypothermia victims are not dead until they are warm and dead. The process of "rewarming" a person needs to be done slowly, in a hospital setting.

An extremely low body temperature can cause the heart to beat so slowly that a pulse may be difficult to find. In other words, a person who is suffering from the effects of severe cold may seem dead, but still be alive.

1.According to the text, when a person experience mild hypothermia, _____.

A. he feels cold so he shakes deliberately.

B. he can drink some wine to stop the shaking.

C. he should be sent to the hospital immediately.

2.Which of the following expression can take the place of the underlined words?

3.When people enter the moderate or severe stages of hypothermia, which of the following statement is WRONG? _________

A. If hypothermia isn’t treated correctly, the victim’s heart may not beat normally.

B. Their body temperature drops below 35℃.

C. Hypothermia victims seem alive but dead.

D. The rescue workers should first help them warm slowly and gently in a proper situation.

4.What’s the best title for the text? _____.

A. Different kinds of hypothermia

B. Medical help is important in treating hypothermia

C. How to avoid cold-weather injuries.

It’s always been a rule in my family, spoken or unspoken, that you don’t waste food. With six children herself and having grown up in an even larger family through the Great Depression, my mother would never tolerate throwing out the amounts of food we see routinely these days in the dumpster. We were told simply to clean our plates, no matter whether we liked the taste or if we were not hungry or not. So this subject is deep in my genes and upbringing.

Estimates are that nearly one third of all food produced is wasted. USDA estimates 31% of food available at retail (零售)level is wasted. 12% of landfill material is food. 28% of agricultural land produces food which is wasted, says the FAO. 18% of vegetables, and 12% of the apple crop are lost at the farm level in the United States., say experts.

Luckily, there’s an “ugly food” movement picking up steam. “Ugly” foods are those that sellers and buyers often reject because of their appearance, like misshapen vegetables and bruised（擦傷的） fruits. Farmers dump them. Supermarkets and restaurants reject them. Now supermarkets and restaurants reject them. Consumers historically have avoided them. Now supermarkets feature the ugly. It’s fashionable. More artful terms are favored. A French supermarket chain is selling “inglorious” foods. The British chain ASDA uses “wonky（歪斜的）” (which to American ears might sound as bad as “ugly.”) Canada’s Loblaws uses “naturally imperfect.” Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, who has cast himself as a promoter of the “good food movement,” has signed on with some British chains to support their efforts.

With the effort of Kretschmann Farm CSA’s we’ve taken the line that rather than throw away things which would be classified by others as ugly, inglorious, or imperfect, we would just give them to you and you could decide. Either we throw them away, or you can. Oftentimes this adds to the volume of the box, or makes it a little more urgent to consume (because sometimes those rejected foods are just very ripe!).

1.When the author was a kid, he .

A. often suffered from hunger

B. was not allowed to waste food

C. had to wash plates after a meal

D. didn’t like the taste of his food

2.What does the underlined part “picking up steam” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Coming to an end.

B. Facing a challenge.

C. Making a selection.

D. Becoming more popular.

3.The Kretschmann Farm CSA .

A. provides perfect food for customers

B. sells food mot of which is very ripe

C. tries to bring ugly food to customers

D. encourage the consumption of food

Tips for Staying Sharp

It’s not abnormal to feel out of it from time to time or perhaps you’re feeling a bit sluggish(遲鈍的)when it comes to remembering things. If you’re worried about your forgetfulness, try out these five tips to stay sharp.

1.

You’ve probably heard the term “you are what you eat.” If you decide to eat sugary foods that are heavy with fats then expect to feel lazy and have no energy. But if you decide to eat fruits, vegetables and make other healthy eating decisions you’ll find that you’re full of energy.

Never stop learning

Challenge yourself constantly---whether it is puzzles, reading, cooking or other tasks that will keep your mind working. If your mind is always learning new things and active, you’ll realize that it’s much easier for you to learn new things and to function.2.

Stay fit

Being in good health and staying in shape is a big part of staying sharp.3.If you choose to be lazy then your body is not going to give you the energy that requires remembering things and completing tasks. However, if you put forth the effort into being health then your body will expel(釋放)the energy you need to achieve your goals.

Ensure enough sleep

Be sure to get the necessary amount of sleep that your body needs to function on a daily basis.4.It also helps your body build up an energy reserve so you can improve your ability to focus and avoid distractions.

Socialize more

5. Social interaction will help you develop multitasking, problem solving and other skills that are necessary in life to keep your mind sharp.

A. Feed your brain

B. Avoid eating too much

C. Your body will only give you what you put into it

D. Lack of sleep contributes to tiredness and slow reaction

E. Conversations require individuals to stay aware and active

F. According to studies, sleep helps strengthen and recover your memories

G. Remember you brain is a muscle and if you want to get the most out of it, you must use it

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, who is better known all over the world as Mark Twain, left school when he was twelve. He had little school education. However, he still became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing.

Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected(期望) to live through the first winter. But with his mother’ s care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didn’t like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi. He was nearly drowned（淹沒）nine times.

How Can I Fight Laziness?

Lazy people will never amount to anything in life.However，laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.

1. Many people lack sleep constantly，since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work.These people have little motivation once they arrive home.Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things.By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest，you can fight laziness throughout the day.

Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active.Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.Others take a more proactive approach，viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.2.

Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations that surround them.A television in the living room may provide entertainment，but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness.3. Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy，such as a good dinner or a film.

Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home.Couples and children may all have different energy levels，but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.4. Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task.It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.

5. Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle，thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.

A．To fight family laziness，set an example.

B．Knowing how to fight laziness is important.

C．One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.

D．Finally，taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.

E．With strong determination，you will be able to achieve your goal.

F．Laziness sets in when you no longer feel in charge of your own life.

G．Create a reward system for yourself，just as parents do for the children.
