But it is deeply misleading. Treating obesity as a disease implies that moving into the categroy of obesity, which for adults means moving from a body-mass index(BMI) of 29 to BMI of 30, is equivalent to contracting a disease. But that is simply not the case. Yes, there are certain health risks associated with having an elevated BMI,such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease. More broadly, a higher BMI is aassoicated with a geater risk of cardiometabolic abnormalities. Nonetheless, almost one quarter of “normal weight” people also have metabolic abnormalities, and more than half of “overweight” and almost one third of “obese” people have normal profiles, according to a xx study. Thats 16 million normal-weight Americans who have metabolic abnormalities and 20 million obese( or 56 million overweight and obese) Americans who have no such abnormalities. One explanation for this discrepancy is that physical fitness and /or nutrition rather than weight per se may be what really matters. Several stuides have shown that physically fit “obese” individuals have lower incidence of heart dieseae and mortality from all causes than do sedentary(久坐的) people of “normal” weight. A recent clinical trial published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that adopting a Mediterranean diet reduced cardiovascular risk independent of weight loss. Some assume that the problem lies with BMI as a measure, which does not distinguish between fat, muscle and bone. While BMI is indeed a flawed(有瑕疵的) measure, it is not clear that there are better ones. A xx study also found no systematic differences BMI and other variables. In other words, it is not just that BMI is a poor measure of obesity but that obesity is a poor predictor of health. Some hope that designating obesity as a disease will remove the shame assoicated with it, and obese people will no longer be blamed for their condition. Yet already it is being called the “fork to mouth” disease, and the disease categorization may reinforce blame by rasing the stakes. If obesity is a disease, parents of fat children may not merely be silently judged as bad parents but also accused of neglect and child endangerment. If the AMAs goal is to address the serious disease of type 2 diabetes and heart disease, it would be more productive and accurate for the association to urge doctors to focus on cardiometabolic risk, recognizing that there are both metabolically healthy and metabolically unhealthy individuals in all categories of weight. Rather than promote weight loss per se, doctors should instead encourage their patients of all size to incorporate physical activity and a balanced diet into their lives. 56. According this passage, who are most likely to suffer from heart disease ? A. Obese people who have no metabolic problem .B. Obese people who are physically active and healthy. C. Normal people who have a sedentary lifestyle D. Normal people who have a Mediterranean diet 57. From the passage , what can we learn about BMI ? A.The BMI calculation doesnt take age into account .B. There will be better tools to measure ones health than BMI.C. It can identify the exact amount of fat, muscle and bone in ones body respectively. D. It cannot be regarded as a reliable indicator of ones health.58. What is the authors attitude towards AMAs decision to recognize obesity as a disease ? A. Critical. B. Suspicious. C. Pessimistic D. Optimistic BWomen have been a growing factor in the success of the US economy since the 1970s. Indeed, the additional productive power of women entering the workforce from 1970 until today accounts for about a quarter of current GDP. Still, the full potential of women in the workforce has yet to be tapped. As the US struggles to sustain historic GDP growth rates, it is critically important to bring more women into the workforce and fully deploy(有效利用) high-skill women to drive productivity improvement. McKinsey & pany undertook this research over the past three months to understand how women contribute to the US economy; how their work benefits individual corporations; what prevents women from making greater contributions to their panies; and what approaches can help panies unlock the full potential of women. Creating the conditions to unlock the full potential of women and achieve our economic goals is a plex and difficult challenge. At a macro level, there is significant potential to raise the labor participation rates of women across the country. At a corporate level, where many high-skill women are employed, the opportunity is to continue to advance women into leadership positions where they can make the greatest contributions. Despite the sincere efforts of major corporations, the proportion of women falls quickly as you look higher in the corporate hierarchy. Overall, this picture has not improved for years. We believe, however, that there is an opportunity to make substantial（实质上的） progress in developing and advancing women on the path to leadership. panies have bee very good at recruiting(招募) womenmany major corporations recruit their “fair share” or more of women. Moreover, many panies have introduced mechanisms such as parental leaves, part-time policies, and travel-reducing technologies to help women stay the course. While the many barriers that remain are substantial, interventions at critical career points can have outsized impact. For example, with a focus on middle management to increase the number of women who advance to the vice-presidential level, corporations could substantially improve the odds of achieving real gender diversity in top management. We found that more women in middle management roles are focused on leading than their colleagues at the entry level. And they have already demonstrated enough to advance and acquire managerial skills. Moreover, many are younger women with relatively light work/family concerns. If panies can win their loyalty at this stage of their careers, they will be more likely to stay the course. These women are ours to lose. 59. According to Paragraph 1, women in the workforce _.A. are the major factor of the US economys success B. contribute the most part of Americas curent GDPC. still have much potential in stimulating(刺激) economyD. are still struggling to sustain their job opportunities 60. Which of the following is an aim of Mckinsey & panys reserach ? A. To solve economys influcence on womens work condition.B. To teach individual corpoartions how to deal with women .C. To help women to get more benefits from their panies D. To find out the factors that affect womens work potential.61. According to the passage , a pany with many high-skill women workers _.A. should supply them with more high positions B. has to reduce and simplify its economic goalsC. has to recruit more women across the country D. should cut down womens labour participation rates 62. The phrases “stay the course” in Para. 4 probably means “_”.A. accept benefits reducing B. keep on working C. avoid part-time jobs D. keep the travel rights 63. The author holds that women in middle management roles _.A. have the most family concerns to deal with B. have the least loyalty to their panies C. show great desire of managerial skillsD. are less hopeful to be promoted than others CThe rise of the Internet has been one of the most transformative developments in human history, parable in impact to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph. Over two billion people worldwide now have access to vastly more information than ever before, and can municate with each other instantly, often using Web-connected mobile devices they carry everywhere. But the Internets tremendous impact has only just begun.“Mass adoption of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, and political transformations in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects are fully global,” Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book The New Digital Age.Perhaps the most profound changes will e when the five billion people worldwide who currently lack Internet access get online. The authors do an excellent job of examining the implications of the Internet revolution for individuals, governments, and institutions like the news media. But if the book has one major shorting, its that authors dont spend enough time applying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these sweeping changes.In their book, the authors provide the most authoritative volume to date that describes and more importantly predicts how the Internet will shape our lives in the ing decades. They paint a picture of a world in which individuals, panies, institutions, and governments must deal with two realities, one physical, and one virtual.At the core of the book is the idea that “technology is neutral, but people arent.” By using this concept as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs. pessimist dichotomy(对立观点)that has characterized many recent debates about whether the rise of the Internet will ultimately be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier this week, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet, theyre also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion people e online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state surveillance(监视).64. In what way is the rise of the Internet similar
