45.From this article, we know that are not good to our health. A.protein and vitamin C B.milk and grain foods C.wild animals, vegetables and fruits D.a huge amount of fatty, salty and sweet foods B Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public.Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something which has not been said before.He hopes the public will listen and understand he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visualartists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colours, not words.They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colours, out of the countless billions possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us.Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colours, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist. Most artists take their shapes and colours from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and repose, their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights.Contemporaryartists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern that there is nothing more in it.Yet even they do choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenousleg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world.Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us. 查看更多

  Sometimes people call each other “scared - cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened , its heart starts beating faster , its muscles get tense , and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood - stream.

  Although the cat doesn’t realize this , its body is getting ready for action.

  If the danger continues , this animal will do one of the two things.It will defend itself , or it will run away as fast as it can.

  Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited , angry , scared , or aroused by other emotions , our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster , and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We , too , get ready to defend ourselves or run.

  Human beings , however , have a problem that animals never face.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over , we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger-or hit somebody-and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher , told somebody you were lonely , or said you were in love , and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn’t always wise to express your feelings freely.

  Does this mean that it’s smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger , sadness , and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside , your body stays tense.Physical illnesses can develop , and you can feel churned up inside.It can actually be bad for your health.

  Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside , don’t just go away.It’s as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them , but before long you’d smell them.And if you opened the cupboard , chances are you’d see little fruit flies hovering (盘旋) all over them.They’d be rotten.

  You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist , but they’ll still be around.And at last you’ll have to deal with them , just like those bananas.

Two American scientists told the people in industrial nations(工业国) that they would be much healthier if they ate more of the same kind of foods eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.
The scientists say that the human body has changed very little since human first appeared on earth, but the way we live has changed greatly.Our body has not been able to deal with these changes in life style and this has led to new kinds of sicknesses.These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.So they are called “diseases of civilization (文明)”.Many cancers and diseases of the blood system, including heart attacks (心脏病)and strokes(中风)are examples of such diseases.
Scientists noted that early stone-age people used very little alcohol(酒精) or tobacco, probably none.Ancient people also got a great deal of physical exercise, but a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and life today.
Stone-age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than farm animals.They also ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables, and fruits.They did not use milk and other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains.But today, we eat a large amount of dairy products and grain foods.We eat six times more salt than stone-age people.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein(蛋白质)and much less vitamin C.
People today probably do not want to live as people thousands of years ago did, but scientists say that we would be much healthier if we ate as those ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet foods.
