Why does this happen? Should the parents take any measures?On the one hand，people who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers，may snack more，and that may affect their long-term diet quality.On the other hand，TV ads for fast food，sweets and snacks tempt teenagers to eat more of those foods. And TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.Lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr-Anderson，of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis，told Reuters Health a clear correlation between TV time during high school and diet quality in young adulthood. While the heaviest TV viewers were eating the most junk food , those whod watched less than two hours per day had the highest intake(吸收)of fruits，vegetables, whole grains and high-calcium food.

Then they exposed the subjects to the virus, quarantined (检疫隔离) them for five days and kept track of who got sick.Besides sleeping more, sleeping better also seemed to help the body fight illness: Patients who fared better on a measure known as “sleep efficiency”the percentage of time in bed that youre actually sleepingwere also less likely to get sick. The results held true even after researchers adjusted for elements such as body-mass index, age, sex, smoking and pre-existing antibodies (抗体) to the virus.The researchers arent exactly sure why sleeping better makes you less likely to develop a cold. But they do try to give an answer: “Sleep disturbance influences the regulation of symptom mediators (调节因子) that are released in response to infection.” In plain English, maybe tossing and turning when youre infected with the cold virus contributes to the symptoms that define a cold.The researchers were based at Carnegie Mellon, the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Virginia, and the study was funded by the National Institutes of Health.60. According to the passage, what does the underlined word “subjects” mean in paragraph 2? A. areas of knowledge in a school B. people being studied in an experiment C. research topics D. animals being tested 61. It is shown in the passage that _.

And yet in a recent survey, 95% of them said they were either very happy or quite happy.They give their city high marks for cleanliness and safetysubways are pristine (洁净的) and unfailingly arrive on time, and police are seen as helpful and good at their jobs. Whats more, they feel they can count on their neighboursall 5.1 million of them.Arhus, DenmarkThe residents of Arhus cheerfully part with 68% of their income in taxes, knowing that in return they will be guaranteed free healthcare, free daycare, and a top-notch (第一流的) education for their children.An energetic city of 300,000 with a lively cultural scene and a diverse number of religions represented, the sense of equality (the range in incomes is narrow), as well as easy access to the nearby sea and surrounding countryside, make Arhus seem more like a small town.San Luis Obispo, CAAccording to a 2008 Gallup-Healthways study, people who live in San Luis Obispo are more likely than residents of other U.S. cities to smile and experience joy and are less likely to experience pain or depression. About 64,000 of the 260,000 people in the greater metropolitan area (都市区), located halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, volunteer at over 11,000 non-profit organizations.Few journeys to work are longer than 10 minutes (one reason its members rank in the upper third for job satisfaction), so “its easy to be involved,” resident Pierre Rademaker said. Business signs are unobtrusive (不显眼的) by law, fewer than 11% of residents smokethe lower rate in the U.S.there are lots of bike lanes, and the citys plaza draws crowds of people for free concerts on summer Fridays. Whats not to love?Monterrey, MexicoThe people of Monterrey dont enjoy high household incomes or access to good healthcare. Instead, theres a profound sense of gratitude for the new political freedom enjoyed since the oppressive Institutional Revolutionary Party lost power in 2000the first time in nearly a centuryas well as an emphasis on social life over work.Another reason Monterrey residents may be so happy is their faith in God and family, and their ability to tough it out through bad times.“We laugh at sickness, poverty and even death,” says Basanez, a political scientist who lives in Monterrey. “We even have a holiday to celebrate death. November 2, the Day of the Dead, is one of the biggest holidays of the year.”63. According to the passage, what do the residents in the four cities have in common? A. All the residents can make great fortunes by working hard. B. The res
