In the 14th century, for example, bubonic plague killed roughly one-third of the population of Asia and about half of the population of Europe. A flu epidemic（传染病） in 1918 killed millions of people around the world. Today, however, vaccines and antibiotics have prevented the spread of many serious diseases. In fact, in many parts of the world today, infectious diseases are no longer considered to be the most serious health problem. In the United States, the number one health problem is the new epidemic of obesity（肥 胖）. What does it mean to be obese? Most doctors and researchers use the body mass index, or BMI, to determine whether someone is overweight or obese. The BMI equals a persons weight in kilograms divided by the square of the persons height in meters. A normal BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9. a person with a BMI of 25.0 to 29.9 is considered to be overweight, while a person with a BMI of 30 or above is said to be obese. What is causing the epidemic of obesity? One obvious contributing factor is the sedentary lifestyle that many people in the 21st century are leading. Getting around by car and working at a desk dont demand much physical activity. A second cause of obesity epidemic is an increase in the availability and consumption of junk food. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines junk foods as “foods which provide calories primarily through fats or added sugars and have minimal amounts of vitamins and minerals.” Studies have shown that people are consuming a lot more calories daily than they used to, and they are consuming many of those calories outside of regular meals. The popularity of fast-food restaurants over the past 30 years has also contributed to be the obesity epidemic. The goal of most fast-food restaurants is to make high profits by producing meals cheaply and efficiently, with little concern for the nutritional content of food. As a result, much of the food served in fast-food restaurants is high in saturated fats, sodium, and sugar. The “great taste” of the food comes from artificial flavorings(调味品) created in science laboratories. For example, roughly 50 artificial ingredients are used to make strawberry milkshake sold in one popular fast-food restaurant. High-quality meat has been replaced by low-quality meat that is full of preservatives to make it taste good. While the nutritional content of much fast food is declining, the serving sizes have been getting larger, encouraging people to consume more calories.

People have been writing graffiti on walls for thousands of years, but today some people believe that certain types of graffiti have evolved into a true art form. Many of the oldest existing examples of graffiti are from the ancient city of Pompeii on the western coast of Italy. In the year 79, Pompeii was destroyed by the eruption of Mt Vesuvius. Ash from the volcano buried the city, preserving much of it for us to see today. Carved on the walls of Pompeii are many examples of graffiti. Some of the graffiti are complaints about store owners who were cheating people, while others are political statements or rough drawing of people. Although the messages differ, the graffiti have one important thing in common: they were all written without the permission of the owner of the wall. For historians, however, these graffiti are some of the few available sources of information about the lives of the common people of Pompeii and their everyday concerns. In the 1960s a new type of graffiti, gang graffiti, started appearing on city walls in the United States. Gang graffiti consisted simply of the gangs name or “tag”; its purpose was to warn other gangs to stay away. By the end of the 1970s, the practice of “tagging” was no longer mainly a gang（一伙） activity. People who had no connection to a gang were writing names on flat surfaces all around the city. Their goal was to become famous by getting their names on as many surfaces as possible. From tagging, graffiti developed into something called graffiti art. Graffiti artists combined their unique letter styles with pictures to create large paintings that covered an entire wall or the entire side of a subway. The purpose of graffiti art, unlike that of gang graffiti, is self-expression and creativity. According to one graffiti artist, “Creating graffiti is an art, and just like any other art, it requires tons of practice and work.” Today, most of graffiti art is made with spray paint, although some artists also use brushes and markers. For graffiti artists, just about anything can serve as a surface for their artwork, even rocks, roads and billboards. Of course not everyone likes or approves of the graffiti on city walls. In fact, most people think of creating graffiti as the destruction of property for fun rather than art. For the majority of people, doing graffiti without someones permission is not freedom of expression. And the presence of graffiti in their neighborhoods make many people feel less safe. In the 1980s, many cities started taking action against graffiti. The city of New York, for example, started a campaign to get rid of graffiti on subway cars. By painting over the graffiti soon after they were made, the city was able to discourage graffiti artists from decorating the subway cars. Then, in 1987, a new type of paint- resistant subway car became available, making it impossible for graffiti artists to paint on the cars. Other cities have used protective coatings and special building materials to prevent people from writing graffiti. Although these solutions have been effective, they are very expensive. Does this mean the end of graffiti? Not quite. In Japan, England and the United States, graffiti artists are allowed to do their work on specially chosen walls in a city. Graffiti art is shown in museums, and in Australia, well-known companies sponsor graffiti competitions. There are also hundreds of web sites dealing with graffiti art, as well as many books and instructional videos.
