Probably many of you know the idiom “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth”. But do you believe a tooth for an eye? That’s something a little bit different.
This strange exchange is neither a form of retribution(報應) nor an unexpected gift from the Tooth Fairy --- it’s actually a very generous gift from a young Irishman, Robert McNichol, 23, to his formerly blind father, 57-year-old Bob McNichol.
In 2005, Bob McNichol’s sight was destroyed in an accident when his eyes were doused(濺在……上面)with liquid aluminum(鋁). Doctors predicted that he would never be able to see again.
But McNichol never liked to take no for an answer: when he heard about a unique operation called Osteo-Odonto-Keratoprosthesis, he knew he had to give it a shot, even though the success rate was a mere 65 percent.
In the technique, the eye socket(眼窩) is rebuilt and implanted(植入) with a human tooth and part of the jawbone, to provide support for an artificial cornea(角膜). Luckily for McNichol, Robert was willing to sacrifice one of his teeth to help his father regain his sight.
The technique isn’t simple: McNichol’s first stint on the operating table lasted ten hours, with a five hour follow-up session at a later date. But thanks to his son’s gift, he’s already seeing astonishing results.
“Now I have enough sight for me to get around and I can watch television. I have come out from complete darkness.” he told his friends.
【小題1】Bob McNichol lost his sight ____ .
A.a(chǎn)fter he had an operation on his eyes |
B.because of an accident |
C.because he met with a serious traffic accident |
D.when he was 57 years old |
A.give it a try | B.make a remark | C.fire a gun | D.kick the ball |
A.make the eye socket look prettier | B.cause his jawbone to function well |
C.help his father take in more food | D.support the implanted artificial cornea |
A.Father and son | B.A unique eye operation |
C.A man defeating darkness | D.Blind man sees with aid of son’s tooth |

Do you love holidays but hate the increase(增長的) weight that follows? You are not alone.
Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. Many people, however, are worried about the weight that comes along with these delicious foods.
With proper planning, though, it is possible to control your weight. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don’t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. The following suggestions may be of some help to you.
Do not miss meals. Before you leave home for a feast (宴會), have a small, low-fat snack(小吃). This may help to keep you from getting too excited before delicious foods.
Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables. A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full. Use a small plate; a large plate will encourage you to have more than enough.
Better not have high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy have much fat in them.
Choose lean meat (瘦肉). Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.
If you have a sweet tooth, try mints (薄荷) and fruits. They don’t have fat content as cream and chocolate.
Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute walk after a meal can help burn off excess (過多的) calories.
【小題1】Holidays are happy days with pleasure but they may______.
A.bring weight problems |
B.bring you much trouble in your life |

The more I learn about how your oral health can affect your overall health, the more of a brushing fanatic(狂熱者) I am. But it wasn’t always that way. As a kid, I resisted tooth-brushing at bedtime—what a bore! I remember my mom asking if I’d brushed my teeth. I’d say yes and she’d say “Let me smell your breath,” so she could confirm it with a smell of Crest. But I’d learned just to take a bite of toothpaste right from the tube, without even making contact with a brush. What a stupid mistake! Soon my teeth were full of holes—something I’ve regretted ever since.
In those days we weren’t much into preventive care at either the dentist or doctor. That wasn’t part of the way of thinking of my parents’ generation, who grew up during the Great Depression. We didn’t know how important it could be, either. "So much of dental care is reactionary.” says Mark Helpin, head of dentistry at Temple University. “Parents will bring their children in only if there’s a problem.”
Medical research has shown the dangers of tooth decay(蛀牙) and gum disease, including heart disease, low birth weight in babies, dangerous and even deadly infections and now maybe Alzheimer’s disease(老年癡呆). There’s no longer any excuse to avoid regular dental checkups and careful oral maintenance—especially with young kids to get them started on the right path. It’s important to establish a relationship with a dentist the same way you would with a pediatrician.
The Alzheimer’s news is especially alarming. We reported back in January on a study at the University of Kentucky that found a preliminary link between tooth loss and dementia. Now there’s further evidence, thanks to a study presented last week at the Alzheimer's Association 2008 International Conference in Chicago. While this study in no way proves that gum disease causes Alzheimer’s, it’s pretty clear that the inflammation and immune response to these harmful bacteria aren’t good!
It takes less than a minute to brush your teeth. It takes two minutes to do a thorough job of brushing your teeth. If doing those two things twice a day may save me from mental disease later, I’m never going to miss these small tasks again—and neither should you.
