He stopped in fr
26、ont of her car and got out. Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. He looked poor and hungry. He knew how she felt. He said, “I am here to help you, madam. Why dont you wait in the car where its warm? By the way, my name is Joe.” She had a flat tire. Joe crawled under the car, changed the
27、 tire. But he got dirty and his hands hurt. She could not thank him enough and asked him how much she owned him. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Joe added, “And think of m

New Australian research shows that half-an-hour in the gym will not make up for the waist-expanding damage caused by spending the rest of the day
34、sitting. But the good news is that doing chores（家务杂事）in the house or gently walking around the office while on the phone might be enough to keep you fit. The study joins the growing body of evidence suggesting too much sitting might undo（消除）the benefits of exercise. The study measured the intensity（
35、强度）of physical activities in 168 subjects over seven days. It found that, regardless of how much exercise they did or their total sitting time, those who took more breaks from sitting had lower risk of thick waists and lower levels of blood lipids(脂肪). “Higher levels of blood lipids have been linked
36、 to a heightened risk of heart disease,” principal researcher Genevieve Healy of the University of Queensland said. “What the study shows is that there are benefits in just getting up regularly and interrupting your sitting time.” Researchers behind the Stand Up Australia project have written to the
37、 Rudd Government requesting $3.5 million for a two-year study into the impact how long sitting offects health and productivity of workers. The study would also develop and test strategies for reducing sitting time on the job. The latest study builds on work that is shifting the health promotion focu
38、s from purposeful exercise, such as running, to lower intensity activities throughout the day. The Australian research has been backed up by US studies. “To hold a body that weighs 77 kilograms upright takes a fair amount of energy from muscles,” said Professor Marc Hamilton from the University of M
39、issouri. “There is a large amount of energy associated with standing every day that cannot easily be replaced by 30 to 60 minutes in the gym.” 60The new Australian research shows that . Ahaving breaks from sitting is good for your health Bwalking is the best physical activity after sitting too long

42、t could be . AExercise in the Gym Is out BYour Office Chair Is Killing you CA Cause of Health Disease DGood News for Workers C An American educational expert, Frederick M. Hess says that a long summer vacation doesnt make sense in todays world. This summer, 50 million kids will spend much time talki
43、ng online, watching TV, plsying video games and asking older brothers or sisters to take them to the supermarket. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk. During much of the 20th century, many Americans worked in factories that did not need a college degree but still offered a high
44、salary. Also, in the 19th century, there was no air condition. And poor hygiene（卫生）meant that crowded schools had health risks. Things have changed. For todays students, academic skills are key to future success many nations dont give kids an American-style summer vacation. They offer no more than s
45、even consecutive（连续的） weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to 13 weeks. To compete in global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors. Summer vacation also causes challenges for todays families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families h
46、ad a stay-at-home mum. Now, two-thirds of American children live families where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break. Someone must watch the kids. But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Scientist have found that
47、disadvantaged students lose important ground in the summertime. A school year can allow time-limited teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time for sports, languages, music and the arts. 64Before the 20th century, a long summer vacation might . Acause caree
