Life doesn’t come with an instruction; I’m glad it doesn’t. Probably because if life was that easy we would all walk through it with perfect smiles and happiness I suppose, but something in us would long to make a big mistake.

My first child was stillborn(胎死腹中的) in March, 2008. The memory of holding his weak lifeless body is still so clear. I didn’t know how I could deal with the pain of losing him. However, one important day I became pregnant(怀孕的) with my daughter and I started to see a little light. In the end I became a new person again filled with hope.

It was a stressful experience, but once I was able to hold her part of my heart healed(恢复). She did not replace my son, but she gave me hope. That is what life is about, HOPE. We cannot experience full happiness without such life experiences.

Of cause not every experience is as painful as losing a loved one. There are people who have lived through it and become beacons(指路灯) of light. I have a friend who lost her 15-year-old son, and she carried on his memory through her photography. She is a great photographer and is able to give so much love and hope to other people.

Extraordinary people are usually people who have suffered; they have become strong because they had to. We are all born with inner strength that we often don’t know until we have to unleash it. When bad things happen, people will surprise you --- love will come from unknown places to you to help you deal with everything. The only way for us to heal, and to go on living our lives, is to find that strength, and eventually help the next person who needs it. Let your experiences change you for the better, don’t let your loss ever be in vain, and reach out and give the next person a helping hand. 61. We can learn from this passage that ______. A. people’s life is very weak and is full of pain B. children can give mothers unexpected anxiety C. the second child of the author gave her new hope

Speedy eaters are three times more likely to be too fat, a problem which is made even worse by the popularity of fast food and the decrease of regular dining habits, some Japanese researchers said on Wednesday.

The findings, published in the British Medical Journal, pay special attention to how eating styles, and not just what or how much is eaten, can affect an obesity epidemic(肥胖流行病) that is becoming more and more severe because of the speed of the Western-style diet in many parts of the world.

The World Health Organization considers around 400 million people in the world as too fat, 20 million of whom are under the age of five. The researchers are concerned that the condition raises the risk of diseases like type 2 diabetes (糖尿病) and heart problems.

For their study, Hiroyasu Iso and the team at Osaka University asked more than 3000 Japanese volunteers (志愿者) who are 30 to 69 years old about their eating. About half of the men and a little more than half of the women said they ate until full. About 45 percent of the men and 36 percent of the women said they ate quickly.

Those who said they ate until full and ate quickly were three times more likely to be fat than people in the “not eating until full and not eating quickly” group, the researchers found.

They believe that the main causes are both the popularity of eating cheap fast food and

bad habits such as watching television while eating.

To fight against the bad effect of eating quickly and being too full that can lead to obesity, parents should encourage children to eat slowly and in calm environments, the study suggested. 66. What did the researchers pay special at …… 此处隐藏：6600字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
