The findings translate to a 2.4 percent increase in absolute risk for multivitamin users, a 4 percent increase associated with vitamin B6, a 59 percent increase for folic acid, and increases of 3 to 4 percent in risk for those taking supplements of iron, folic acid, magnesium and zincBased on existing evidence, we see little justification for the general and widespread use of dietary supplements, the authors wroteEveryone needs vitamins, which are essential nutrients that the body cant produce on its ownBut in the past few years, several high-quality studies have failed to show that high doses of vitamins, at least in pill form, help prevent disease or prolong life64The words high doses of vitamins underlined in Paragraph 3 refer to _Ahigh quality vitamins Bhigh risks of vitaminsCtaking in extra vitamins Dthe content of vitamins65What do we know about the study on Vitamins?AAll vitamin users had a higher risk of developing prostate cancerBVitamins help prolong lifeCSelenium and vitamin E could lower a mans risk for prostate cancerDUsers of vitamin B6 has a 4 percent higher risk of death66Which of the following would be the best title for the article?AVitamin Cause Cancer BMore Evidence Against Vitamin UseCMore Evidence Against Vitamin E Use DLess Vitamins More Exercise67The writers attitude towards Vitamin Use is _Aapproving Bindifferent Cdoubtful DadmiringDA random search using paper bag with any famous brand name will find hundreds of results on TaobaocomThere are more than 80 online stores selling Chanel paper shopping bagsSome 70 are selling Gucci paper shopping bagsIt is hard to tell whether the paper bags are authentic from the photos on the websites, but most are imitationsThe paper bags are usually priced between 5 yuan and 40 yuanPeople selling more expensive bags claim theirs are authenticIn Wang Xueshengs store, more than 600 paper bags with a Louis Vuitton logo, priced at 3 yuan a piece, sold within 30 daysHe admitted that the paper bags in his store were just imitations of the real thingMost people buy the bags only for the logo, he saidMany people expressed doubts about the appeal of the fake paper bagsIm really surprised that there should be such things for saleI just cant figure out a single reason to buy those paper bags, said Tang Yuemin, a 25-year-old office workerI dont think people need the logo to make themselves appear wealthy, she saidBut the buyers have their reasonsPaper bags with a famous logo are better looking than ordinary onesI use them to
