11、y the causes. But would you ever have imagined there might be a connection between the bacteria that lived in your guts （內(nèi)臟）when you were a baby and the chance that you would become overweight? Scientists in Finland recently found just such a link. In a recent study, they showed that overweight kids

12、 had different species of bacteria living in their guts. You probably think of bacteria only as germs that can make you sick. While its true that some bacteria can make people ill, your body actually depends on some types of bacteria to help you digest food and extract nutrients from it. These “good

13、” bacteria live in your guts, where they process the food you eat. Human babies get these bacterial helpers from their moms. When a baby is born, some of the bacteria in the mother move into the babys body. Growing babies get additional “good” bacteria from the milk their mothers produce. And it tur

28、an Communications Institute in Washington, where she lived.Washoe was born in 1965 in Africa, where she was captured by the Air Force and taken to the US for research use in the space program. In 1966, she left the program and began living with two scientists, Allen and Beatrix Gardner, who led a pr

29、oject to teach the chimp American Sign Language (ASL) in Washoe, Nevada, for which it was named. Washoe had been living on Central Washington Universitys Ellensburg Campus since 1980. She had a vocabulary of about 250 words. Also, Washoe taught sign language to three younger chimps: Tatu, 31, Loulis

30、, 29, and Dar, 31Primate (靈長類) researcher Jane Goodall, in Fouts book Next of Kin, noted the importance of the work with Washoe. “Roger, through his ongoing conversations with Washoe and her extended family, has opened a window into a chimpanzees mind,” Goodall said.Though previous efforts to teach

31、chimps spoken languages had failed, the researchers believed there was a better chance using signs. But Washoes language skills were disputed by scientists who believed that language is unique to humans. Among those who doubted that chimps could use language were linguist (語言學(xué)家) Noam Chomsky and Har

35、salt and drink fewer sugar-sweetened soft drinks may significantly lower their risks of obesity,” researchers recently reported in the journal Hypertension. “Sugar-sweetened soft drinks are a significant source of calorie intake in children,” said Feng J. He, a researcher at St Georges University of

36、 London, England. “It has been shown that sugar-sweetened soft drink consumption is related to obesity in young people.” They wanted to know whether there is a link between salt intake and sugar-sweetened soft drink consumption. Dr He and colleagues analyzed data from a 1997 national survey of more

37、than 2,000 people between 4 and 18 in Britain. “We found that children eating a lower-salt diet drank less fluid,” said He. “From our research, we estimated that 1 gram of salt cut from their daily diet would reduce fluid intake by 100 grams per day.” The researchers also found that children eating

38、a lower-salt diet drank fewer sugar-sweetened soft drinks. From their research, they predicted that reducing salt intake by 1 gram each day would reduce sugar-sweetened soft drink consumption by 27 grams per day, after. “If children aged 4 to 18 cut their salt intake by half, there would be a decrea

39、se of about two sugar-sweetened soft drinks per week per child, so each child would decrease calorie intake by almost 250 kilocalories per week,” Dr He said. In previous studies, researchers found that a low-salt diet lowers blood pressure in children, and prevents the development of high blood pres

40、sure later in life. “Both high blood pressure and obesity increase the risk of having strokes and heart attacks,” Dr He said. Dr He recommends that parents check labels and choose low-salt food products. “Small reductions in the salt content of 10 to 20 percent cannot be detected by the human salt t

Instead of telling yourself “Thats a nice shirt, but I cant afford it,” change the message to “That will look great with my black

Dont try to change complainersIf you find yourself trapped in a group of complainers in a meeting or at a social event, simply choose silence. Let their words bounce off you while you think of something else. At

49、y back at them by asking, “So what do you intend to do about it” In most cases, complainers dont really want a solution. They just want to speak them out. If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solutions, they will leave you alone and find someone else to complain to. If so, yo

50、u will be happy. A. Find solutionsB. Change responsibilityC. You have got a lot of company.D. By doing this, it will lead to positive behaviors. E. But you can redirect the discussion in your own mind.F. Whenever possible, escape from negative conversations.G. You will never know what they are going
