41、and finally of our existence,” he said. “It is surprising that the image we observe is so similar to that which we obtain from our theoretical calculations (计算). So far, it looks like Einstein is correct once again.” But having the first image will enable researchers to learn more about these myster

Even more interesting is the question of what happens when an object falls into a black hole.32What made the scienti

When we eat or drink sugary foods, the sugar enters our blood and affects parts of our brain, which makes us feel good. Then the good feeling goes

47、 away, leaving us wanting more. 36 In this way, it is in fact an addictive drug, one that doctors suggest we all cut down on.“It seems like every time I study an illness and search for the first cause, I find my way back to sugar,” says scientist Richard Johnson. 37 Why? “Sugar, we believe, is one o

48、f the causes of the problem, if not the major reason,” says Johnson.Our bodies are designed to survive on very little sugar. Early humans often had very little food, so our bodies learned to be very efficient in storing sugar as fat. In this way, we had energy stored for when there was no food. But

49、today, most people have more than enough. 38Well, what is the solution? Its obvious that we need to eat less sugar. 39 From breakfast cereals (谷物) to after-dinner desserts, our foods are increasingly filled with it.40 Many schools are replacing sugary desserts with healthier food like fruit. Other s
