Lon gueira calledthe dive really gross, shock ing and scary.Its not all Lon gueiras fault. The man hole should nt have bee n left

28、 un covered and unatte nded, and no warning sig ns or hazard cones had bee n set up n ear the work site. Aworker with New Yorks Departme nt of En vir onmen tal Protectio n (DEP), who wasprepari ng to flush the sewage, helped her out, and the departme nt later issued a formalapology for the in cide n

29、t.Non etheless, observers are harshly divided over who is to blame here. The DEP is certain ly at fault for faili ng to secure the man hole, but to what exte nt should the girl be heldaccountable for failure to be aware of her surroundings? If she had stepped into traffic andbee n hit by a car, woul

30、d her react ion (that is: an ger and a pote ntial lawsuit) be anydiffere nt?Detachment from ones environment due to electronic gadgets is a growing problem-a nda hazardous one.

NewYork Sen ator Kruger eve n tried to crim in alize the use of han dheld devices (in clud ingpho nes, music players, and game players) by pedestria ns while they are crossing stre

32、etsin major New York cities, due to concerns over the nu mber of auto vs. pedestria n accidents.Following a substantial outcry, that legislation appears never to have been formally introduced. But did Kruger have a point?What in terested me, at least, is the end of the stow above that Lon gueira los

33、t a shoe inthe sewage. But since other things are not reported as lost, Im guess ing she appears tohave man aged to keep her grip on her pho ne duri ng the accide nt.51.

38、. This finding might also help explain the obesityepidemic of a society in which people often sit.Researchers split 14 uni versity stude nt volun teers into three groups for a 45-mi nutesession of either relaxing in a sitting position, reading and summarizing a text, orcompleting a series of memory,

39、 attention, and alert tests on the computer. After the sessions, the participa nts were in vited to eat as much as they pleased.Though the study involved a very small number of participants, the results were stark. Thestudents who had done the computer tests downed 253 more calories or 29.4 perce nt

40、more tha n the couch potatoes. Those who had summarized a text con sumed 203 morecalories than the resting group.Blood samples take n before, duri ng, and after revealed that in tellectual work causesmuch bigger fluctuations in glucose （葡萄糖） levels than rest periods, perhaps owing to thestress of th

41、inking.The researchersfigure the body reacts to these fluctuations by demanding food to restoreglucose-the brains fuel. Glucose is conv erted by the body from carbohydrates （碳水化合物） and is supplied to the brain via the bloodstream. The brain cannot make glucose andso n eeds a con sta nt supply. Brain

42、 cells n eed twice as much en ergy as other cells in thebody.Without exercise to bala nce the added in take, however, such bra in food is probably notsmart. Various studies in animals have shown that consuming fewer calories overall leadsto sharper brains and Ion ger life, and most researchersagree

43、that the findings apply, ingen eral, to huma ns.And, of course, eat ing more can make you fat.Caloric overcompe nsati on followi ng in tellectual work, comb ined with the fact that weare less physically active whe n doing in tellectual tasks, could con tribute to the obesityepidemic currently observ

44、ed in industrialized countries, said lead researcherJean-Philippe Chaput at Laval University in Quebec City, Canada. This is a factor thatshould not be igno red, con sideri ng that more and more people hold jobs of an intellectual n ature, the researcher con cluded.57. The passage mainly tells us th

45、at_ .A. consuming fewer calories can lead to sharper brainsB. thinking consumed more calories than restingC. resting more can make people fatD. brain cells n eed more en ergy tha n other cells in the body58.

Accord ing to the research, which of the followi ng activities con sumed the mostcalories?A. Rela

47、x ing in a sitti ng positi on.B. Read ing professi onal books.C. Summariz ing a text.D. Completi ng tests on the computer.61.

Watermelons are not only cooli ng treats forwhe n the mercury

50、 starts to rise; they are also loaded with healthy nutrients such asvitamin A, vitamin C, lycopene ( 番茄红素 ),and etc. Vitamins A and C and lycope ne arean tioxida nts, which are substa nces that work to help get rid of the harmful effects ofsubsta nces.Research hassuggestedthat a diet high in fruits

51、and vegetables that have plenty ofantioxidants can reduce the risk of heart disease, some cancers, and some other dangerousdiseases.A cup of watermel on provides 25% of the recomme nded daily value ofvitamin C and 6% of the recommended daily value of vitamin A. Additi on ally,researchershave found t

52、hat lycope ne, a nu trie nt most traditi on ally associated withtomatoes, is found in equal or greater qua ntities in watermel on. Watermel ons alsoprovide sig nifica nt amounts of vitamin B6 and vitamin B1, both of which are n ecessaryfor en ergy product ion. In comb in ati on with the mi nerals an

53、d vitami ns alreadydescribed, these B vitami ns add to the high nu trie nt rich ness of watermel on.
