When Our Words Collide"Wanna buy a body?"That was the opening line of more than a few phone calls I got from self-employed photographers when I was a photo editor at U.S.News.Like many in the mainstream press,I wanted to separate the world of photographers into "them",who trade in pictures of bodies or run after famous people like Princess Diana,and"us",the serious news people. But after16years in that role,I came to wonder whether the two worlds were easily distinguishable.“想买尸体的照片吗?”自从我当上《美国新闻》的图片编辑之后,我接到的自由摄影师打来的电话很多都是以这么一句开场的。
跟很多主流媒体一样,我想把这些买卖尸体照片或者整天跟着像戴安娜王妃这样的名人后面追拍的摄影师,归到“那些人”里面,而我们“这些人”自然是严肃的新闻人。
但是在这个位置上做了16年以后,我开始怀疑这两个世界是不是真的能轻易区分开。
Working in the reputable world of journalism,I toldphotographers to cover other people's difficult life situations.I justified marching into moments of sadness,under the appearance of the reader's right to know.I worked with professionals talking their way into situations or shooting from behind police lines.And I wasn't alone.既然在新闻界这种声誉卓著的行业工作,我就要求摄影师们去采访其他人艰难的生活状况。

2014年职称英语(卫生类)新增文章译文及解析——阅读理解第十六篇Eat to LiveA meager diet may give you health and long life,but it’s not much fun—and it might not even be necessary.We may be able to hang on to most of that youthful vigor even if we don’t start to diet until old age.Stephen Spindler and his colleagues from the University of California at Riverside have found that some of an elderly mouse’s liver genes can be made to behave as they did when the mouse was young simply by limiting its food for four weeks.The genetic rejuvenation won’t reverse other damage caused by time for the mouse,but could help its liver metabolize drugs or get rid of toxins.Spindler’s team fed three mice a normal diet for their whole lives,and fed another three on half-rations3.Three more mice were switched from the normal diet to half-feed3for a month when they were34months old—equivalent to about70human years.The researchers checked the activity of11,000genes from the mouse livers,and found that46changed with age in the normally fed mice.The changes were associated with things like inflammation and free radical production一probably bad news for mouse health.In the mice that had dieted all their lives,27of those46genes continued to behave like young genes.But the most surprising finding was that the mice that only started dieting in old age also benefited from70per cent of these gene changes."This is the first indication that these effects kick in pretty quickly,”says Huber Warner from the National Institute on Aging near Washington D.C.No one yet knows if calorie restriction works in people as it does in mice,but Spindler is hopeful.“There’s attracting and tempting evidence out there that it will work,”he says.If it does work in people,there might be good reasons for rejuvenating the liver.As we get older,our bodies are less efficient at metabolizing drugs,for example.A brief period of time of dieting,says Spindler,could be enough to make sure a drug is effective.But Spindler isn’t sure the trade-off is worth it.“The mice get less disease,they live longer,but they’re hungry,”he says.“Even seeing what a diet does,it’s still hard to go to a restaurant and say:‘I can only eat half of that,.”Spindler hopes we soon won’t need to diet at all.His company,Lifespan Genetics in California,is looking for drugs that have the effects of calorie restriction.词汇:meager adj.不足的youthful adj.有青春活力的vigor n.精力,活力metabolize vt.使(一种物质)进入新陈代谢过程genetic adj.基因的rejuvenation n.恢复活力,返老还童注释:1.hang on to:继续保留。
第五部分补全短文第一篇身材苗条的女性可能很早就为体重发愁身材瘦削的女性自认为身体肥胖的原因有很多,但是一项新析研究表明态度通常与童年的经历有关。
研究者发现在他们调查的2,400名身材瘦削的女性中,有将近10%的人认为她们太重了。
童年的经历有可能造成对身体形象存有不正确的态度,其中包括:父亲或者母亲生病,或是年幼时便开始酗酒或是过性生活。
以哥本哈根丹麦癌症协会的Susanne Kruger Kjaer博士为首的研究者认为,社会认为的“理想”女性身材趋向偏瘦型身材。
研究者指出,很多体重正常的女性希望体重再减轻—些。
为了调查身材瘦削女性心目中的身体形象,研究者给2,443名27岁到38岁、体重指数在正常值下限的女性发放了问卷。
这些女性被问及从童年经历到目前的运动习惯等因素。
总的来说,大约10%的女性认为她们太胖了。
那些童年或青少年时代经历过某种”严重的生活事件”的人更容易对身体形象存有不正确的态度,这些事件如父亲或者母亲生病或受教育的希望破灭。
那些还不到15岁就有性生活或开始酗酒的女性也同样如此。
与此形成对照的是,研究者报告说,成年后的痛苦事件,例如严重的疾病或严重的婚姻问题,与不正确的身体形象观无关。
加尔和她的同事们写道:“我们的研究结果表明,对自己体型的不满可能在人生根早的时候就产生了。
”第二篇尿床每天晚上全世界会有数百万的孩子尿床。
尿床现象如此普遍,以至于你们班里也可能有别的孩子也尿床。
大多数孩子不会把自己尿床的事告诉朋友,因此很容易感到你是独自一人,好像全世界只有你一个人尿床。
但你并不是一个人。
尿床的学名是夜间遗尿。
遗尿在家族中代代相传.也就是说,如果你有尿床的毛病,很可能你的近亲小的时候也尿床:正如你的那双蓝眼睛可能遗传白你母亲,或者你的两条长腿遗传自你的叔叔,你尿床也可能是遗传所致。
很重要的一点是没有人会故意尿床。
尿床并不意味着你懒惰或是粗俗。
这是件身不由己的事。
因为某些原因,尿床的孩子感觉不到他膀胱已满而起来去上厕所。

巡回乐团道具管理组的成员在用美元玩儿游戏,把纸币折成纸飞机的形状然后看谁飞得最远。
因为没有什么事情可以做,我加入了他们并且贏了五局,之后我找了个机会带着我贏的钱退出了游戏。
尽管天色看起来不是很好,我还是决定出去走一走o我向前走到了街道另一边的一个小店里。
与其他的小店不同,它没有吸引眼球的名字和主要经营的项目,取而代之的是普通的霓虹灯,里面则是吸引人的强光。
奇怪的是并没有什么影子映射在窗户上。
我并没有因为这个而停住脚步,我走了进去。
我屏住呼吸,不知道看哪里也不知道从哪里开始看。
一面墙上挂着三个手工缝制的美国壁毯,十分美丽,可能是新做的。
我穿过易拉罐和散落的小玩意儿还有古董家具,在我面前的一面墙上挂着一个崭新的1957年的Straocaster吉他。
一张五十美元的卡插在琴弦上。
我的手抚摸着放唱片的架子,读着标题。
这里还有很多的……“我可以帮助你吗?”她吓了我一跳。
我没有看见在柜台后面的女人。
她看我的方式如此居高临下,这一时让我很紧张像是被一种磁场或是电场紧紧包裹住。
很难避开那个眼神。
但是尽管很不舒服,我还是觉得那种被直视的感觉很美妙,那种感觉对我来说不陌生,对她来说也不陌生oi了愉悦以外她的神情还流露出慈爱和怜悯。
我猜不出她的年龄。
尽管她的眼神充满了友善,她使我想起了我的祖母。
我能感觉到她是一个不喜欢与人争吵的人。
最后我开口说话,“我真的只是看看”,私下里却在好奇有多少东西能够塞进汽车。
她转身离开到后面的屋子,示意我应该跟随其后,但这并非是第一个房间,房间的灯光也让我感觉很特别,灯光来自天花板上的油饤,使一切都笼罩在巨大的阴影之下。
这里没有罕见的电吉他,没有古老的项链,没有鲜花装饰的手绘盒子。
很明显它是陈旧的用来存放垃圾和那些平淡无奇的旧文献的。
我发现了一些旧书,那些金字巳经退去使题目很难辨认。

+第十一篇School Lunch学校午餐Research has shown that over half the children in Britain who take their own lunches to school do not eat properly(正常地)in the middle of the day. In Britain schools have to provide(提供)meals at lunchtime. Children can choose (选择)to bring their own food or have lunch at the school canteen.One shocking finding(发现)of this research is that school meals are much healthier than lunches prepared by parents. There are strict standards(标准)for the preparation of school meals, which have to include one portion(比例)of fruit and one of vegetables, as well as meat, a dairy item and starchy food like bread or pasta. Lunchboxes examined(检查)by researchers contained sweet drinks, crisps and chocolate bars. Children consume(摄取)twice as much sugar as they should at lunchtime.The research will provide a better understanding (解释)of why the percentage of overweight students in Britain has increased(增长)in the last decade. Unfortunately, the government cannot criticise(批评)parents, but it can remind them of the nutritional(营养的)value of milk, fruit and vegetables. Small changes in their children's diet can affect(影响)their future health. Children can easily develop bad eating habits(习惯)at this age, and parents are the only ones who can prevent(阻止)it.+第十二篇 A Powerful Influence强大的影响There can be no doubt at all that the Internet has made a huge difference to our lives. Parents are worried that children spend too much time playing on the Internet, hardly ever(几乎不)doing anything else in their spare time. Naturally, parents are curious(对…好奇)to find out why the Internet is so attractive, and they want to know if it can be harmful(伤害)to their children. Should parents worry if their children are spending that much time staring at (盯着看成)their computers?Obviously; if children are bent over their computers for hours, absorbed(沉迷)in some game, instead of doing their homework, then something is wrong. Parents and children could decide how much use the child should make(利用)of the Internet, and the child should give his or her word(诺言)that it won’tinterfere with homework. If the child is not holding(坚持)to this arrangement, the parent can take more drastic steps(采取措施)dealing with a child's use of the Internet is not much different from negotiating(协商)_ any other soft of bargain about behaviour.Any parent who is seriously(严重)alarmed about a child's behaviour should make an appointment to discuss(讨论)the matter with a teacher. Spending time in front of the screen does not necessarily(不一定)affect a child's performance at school. Even if a child is absolutely(完全地)crazy about using the Internet,he or she is probably just going(度过)through a phase, and in a few months there will be something else to worry about!第十五篇Helen and Martin海伦和马丁With a thoughtful sigh, Helen turned away from the window and walked back to her favourite armchair. Would(将要)her brother never arrive? For a brief moment, she wondered if she really cared that much.Over the years Helen had given up (放弃) waiting for Martin to take an interest in her.Her feelings for him had gradually weakened(变淡) until now, as she sat waiting for him, she experienced no more than a sister's. curiosity(好奇心) to see what had become(发生…事) of her brother. Almost without warning(预兆) , Martin had lost, his job with a busy publishing company after spending the last eight years in New York as a key figure in the US office. Somehow the two of them hadn't bothered(烦扰) to keep in touch and, left alone, Helen had slowly found her confidence(对…有信心) in her own judgment growing. Ignoring(不顾) the wishes of her parents, she had left university halfway through(过程中) her course and now, to the astonishment of the whole family, she was gaining(获得) a fast-growing reputation in the pages of respected art magazines and was actually earning enough to live on(靠) from her paintings. Of course, she took(对) no pleasure in Martin's sudden misfortune, but she couldn't help(忍不住) looking forward to her brother's arrival with quiet(暗暗地) satisfaction at what she had achieved。

1 Better Control of TB Seen If a Faster Cure Is FoundThe World Health Organization1 estimates that about one-third of all people are infected with bacteria that cause tuberculosis . Most times, the infection remains inactive. But each year about eight million people develop active cases of TB, usually in their lungs. Two million people die of of it. The disease has increased with the spread of AIDS and drug-resistant forms of tuberculosis.Current treatments take at least six months. People have to take a combination of several antibiotic drugs daily. But many people stop as soon as they feel better. Doing that can lead to an infection that resists treatment. Public health experts agree that a faster-acting cure for tuberculosis would be more effective. Now a study estimates just how effective it might be. A professor of international health at Harvard University2 led the study. Joshua Salomon says a shorter treatment program would likely mean not just more patients cured. It would also mean fewer infectious patients who can pass on their infection to others.The researchers developed a mathematical model to examine the effects of a two-month treatment plan. They tested the model with current TB conditions in Southeast Asia. The scientists found that a two-month treatment could prevent about twenty percent of new cases. And it might prevent about twenty-five percent of TB deaths. The model shows that these reductions would take place between two thousand twelve and two thousand thirty. That is, if a faster cure is developed and in wide use by two thousand twelve.The World Health Organization reductions the DOTS3program in nineteen ninety. DOTS is Directly Observed Treatment, Short-course. Health workers watch tuberculosis patients take their daily pills to make sure they continue treatment.Earlier this year, an international partnership of organizations announced a plan to expand the DOTS program. The ten-year plan also aims to finance research into new TB drugs. The four most common drugs used now are more than forty years old. The Global Alliance for TB Drug Development4 says its long-term goal is a treatment that could work in as few as ten doses.1.找到速效治疗剂可以更好控制结核病世界卫生组织估计全球有大约三分之一的人感染了导致结核病的病菌。

When British TV chef Jamie Oliver launched his 鈥楩eed Me Better 鈥?campaign in 2004 in schools in the Greenwich area of London with the aim of improving the diet of British schoolchildren, some people were skeptical about the impact it would have. Oliver鈥檚 highly-publicized television campaign to improve school lunches led to dramatic changes in the meals offered to pupils in the Greenwich schools. In order to achieve his aim Oliver needed to show schools how to swap(浜ゆ崲)cheap processed meals, which were high in saturated fat(楗卞拰鑴傝偑),salt, and sugar, for healthier options. Now, research at the institute for Social and Economic Research(ISER)has shown that Oliver鈥?s experiment did not only help pupils eat more healthily, it also resulted in them performing better at school in English and Science and in helping schools reduce their rates of absenteeism(缂哄嫟). The ISER study, carried out by Michele Belont and Jonathan James, showed 鈥榮ubstantial鈥?positive effects, with the performance of 11-year-old pupils eating Oliver鈥檚meals improving by up to 8% in Science and by as much as 6% in English. In addition, the number of children having authorized absences for sickness since 2004 showed a 14% decrease. The ISER study analysed the academic test results of more than 13,000 children in Greenwich between 2002 and 2007 to evaluate the impact of Oliver鈥檚 healthier meals on school performance. Pupils who sat exams in 2006-2007 had been on the new diet for at least 12 months, and the researchers found that the number of pupils reaching higher levels of achievement had clearly risen. The study also compared the results of the school in Greenwich with those of pupils of the same age in seven other London areas who did not eat the meals created by Oliver.

Aromatherapy is a form of alternative medicine which is based on the use of very concentrated 鈥榚ssential鈥?oils from the flowers, leaves, bark, branches or roots of plants which are considered to have healing properties. In aromatherapy these powerful oils are mixed with other oils, such as almond(鏉忎粊)oil, or they are diluted(绋€閲?with water. These solutions(婧舵恫鍓?can be rubbed on the skin, sprayed in the air, or applies as a compress(鏁疯嵂). 2. Many people have aromatherapy massages(鎸夋懇)锛?and depending on the treatment a person is having, the aromatherapist will massage the oil into the hands or shoulders. The massage is smooth and flowing, as it is designed to create a sense of relaxation and calm. The sessions are tailored to the individual鈥檚health and mood at the time, so every session is unique. 3. Practitioners of aromatherapy believe that the aroma of the 鈥榚ssential鈥?oils directly stimulates the brain or that the oils are absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream where they can affect the whole body and promote healing. Other clams in support of aromatherapy are that it aids digestion improves the functioning of respiratory system, reduces muscular aches and pains, and promotes muscle relaxation and tone. It has also been argued that aromatherapy can improve circulation, lower blood pressure, and help combat insomnia(澶辩湢) and other stress-related disorders such as tension headaches, anxiety, and mild depression. 4. However, whilearomatherapy may have real effects that promote a sense of well-being, some traditional medicine practitioners remain doubtful about its powers. While research has confirmed that aromatherapy does have some positive short-term effects on most people, it also suggests that aromatherapy is not an actual science or medicine that should be used to treat illness. Furthermore, not all aromatherapy is considered beneficial to health. There are precautions which should be taken before having aromatherapy because some oils can have negative effects on people with certain medical conditions. The study of aromatherapy is relatively new and unexplored. More research needs to be conducted to make scientific conclusions about its useand effects. 锛堝垎鏁帮細8.00锛?/div>(1).A.

The American Cancer Society team said this was the first time reduced risk was specifically linked to walking. UK experts said it was more evidence that lifestyle influenced cancer risk. A recent poll for the charity Ramblers a quarter of adults walk for no more than an hour a week , but being active is known to reduce the risk of a number of cancers . This study, published in Cancer Epidemiology , Biomarkers & Prevention , followed 73.615 women out of 97,785 aged 50-74 who had been recruited by the American Cancer Society between 1992 and 1993,so it could monitor the incidence of cancer in the group. They were asked to complete questionnaires on their health and on how much time they were active and participating in activities such as walking , swimming and aerobics(鏈夋哀杩愬姩)and how much time they spent sitting watching television or reading . They completed the same questionnaires at two-year intervals between 1997 and 2009.Of the women,47% said walking was their only recreational activity . Those who walked for at least seven hours per week had a 14% lower risk of breast cancer compared to those who walked three or fewer hours per week. Dr. Alpa Patel , a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society in Atlanta , Georgia , who led the study , said:鈥滸iven that more than 60% of women report some daily walking , promoting walking as a healthy leisure-time activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity amongst post-menopausal women . We were pleased to find that without any other recreational activity, just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower risk of breast cancer in these women.鈥濃€滿ore strenuous(绱у紶鐨?and longer activities lowered the risk even more.鈥?

In order to generate that energy, fossil fuels (coal oil, and gas) are burnt, and these produce greenhouse gases--- in particular carbon dioxide (CO2) a year, and it is the same CO2 that is changing the climate and damaging theenvironment. CO2 and various other gases wrap the earth in an invisible blanket helping to prevent heat from escaping. Without this greenhouse effect, the average temperature on Earth would be around -18鈩? compared with the current average of around +15鈩? The composition of this blanket of gases has remained relatively constant for many thousands of years.However, since the industrial revolution began around 200 years ago, people have been burning increasing amounts of fossil fuels, thus releasing more CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the process. This has increased the heating effect of the blanket, trapping more of the sun鈥檚 energy inside the Earth鈥檚 atmosphere in turn the Earth鈥檚 temperature has increased more rapidly in a shorter pennd of there that it has for thousands of years. 銆€銆€In 2008, the total UK CO2 emissions were 533 million tones 27% (144 million tonnes ) of those emissions came from the energy used to heat, light, and power homes. Transport emissions caused by passenger cars, buses and motorcycles accounted for a further 16% (87 million tonnes ) of the UK鈥檚 CO2 emissions. These figures show that a significant amount of CO2 results from ordinary citizens鈥?carbon footprint in their daily activities and lifestyle. 銆€銆€The e ffects of climate change can be seen all around us. Weather patterns are cecoming more and more fractured and uncertain, and over the last century trends in warm weather have become increasingly common. In the UK in the last 40 years, winters have grown warmer with much heavier rainfall. One of the clearest shifts over the last 200 years is towards summers that are hotter and drier, causing pervasive water shortages.

The hospital said the patient was 鈥渁wake and responsive鈥?Tuesday and resting comfortably. It refused to release personal details. 銆€銆€The patient had been expected to die within a month without the operation, and doctors said they expected the artificial heart to extend the person鈥檚 life by only a month.

第十三篇Stage Fright1(A级)Fall down as you come onstage. That‟s an odd trick. Not recommended. But it saved the pianist Vladimir Feltsman when he was a teenager back in Moscow. The veteran cellist Mstislav Rostropovich tripped him purposely to cure him of pre-performance panic,2Mr. Feltsman said, “ All my fright was gone. I already fell. What else could happen?”Today, music schools are addressing the problem of anxiety in classes that deal with performance techniques and career preparation. There are a variety of strategies that musicians can learn to fight stage fright and its symptoms: icy fingers, shaky limbs, racing heart, blank mind.3 Teachers and psychologists offer wide-ranging advice, from basics like learning pieces inside out,4 to mental discipline, such as visualizing a performance and taking steps to relax. Don‟t deny that you‟re jittery,they urge; some excitement is natural, even necessary for dynamic playing. And play in public often, simply for the experience.Psychotherapist Diane Nichols suggests some strategies for the moments before performance, “Take two deep abdominal breaths, open up your shoulders, then smile,‟‟ she says. “And not one of these …please don‟t kill me‟ smiles. Then choose three friendly faces in the audience, people you woul d communicate with and make music to, and make eye contact with them.” She doesn‟t want performers to think of the audience as a judge.Extreme demands by mentors or parents are often at the root of stage fright,says Dorothy Delay, a well-known violin teacher. She tells other teachers to demand only what their students are able to achieve.When Lynn Harrell was 20,he became the principal cellist of the Cleverland Orchestra, and he suffered extreme stage fright. “There were times when I got so nervous I was sure the audience could see my chest responding to the throbbing. It was just total panic. I came to a point where I thought,… If I have to go through this to play music, I think I‟m going to look for another job.”5 Recovery, he said, involved developing humility-recognizing that whatever his talent, he was fallible,and that an imperfect concert was not a disaster.6It is not only young artists who suffer, of course. The legendary pianist Vladimir Horowitz‟s nerves were famous. The great tenor Franco Corelli is another example. “They had to push him on stage,” Sopran o Renata Scotto recalled.Actually,success can make things worse. “In the beginning of your career, when you‟re scared to death, nobody knows who you are, and they don‟t have any expectations,” Soprano June Anderson said. “There‟s less to lose. Later on, when you‟re known, people are coming to see you, and they have certain expectations. You have a lot to lose.”Anderson added,“I never stop being nervous until I‟ve sung my last note.”词汇:veteran / 'vetərən / adj.经验丰富的jittery / 'dʒɪtəri / adj.紧张不安的mentor / 'men'tɔ: / n.指导者soprano / sə'prprɑ:nəʊ / n.女高音;女高音歌手cellist/ 'tʃelɪst / n.大提琴演奏家abdominal / æb'dɔmənəl / adj.腹部的fallible/ 'fæləbəl / adj.易犯错误的tenor /'tenə/ n.男高音注释:1.Stage Fright:舞台恐惧2.The veteran cellist Mstislav Rostropovich tripped him purposely to cure him of pre-performance panic…资深大提琴家Mstislav Rostropovich故意把Vladimir Feltsman绊倒,因而治愈了他的上台前的恐惧症。

2014年职称英语卫生类新增新增ABC级文章及答案详解第二部分阅读判断第九篇What Is a Dream?(B级)For centuries, people have wondered about the strange things that they dream about. Some psychologists say that this nighttime activity of the mind has no special meaning. Others,however,think that dreams are an important part of our lives. In fact, many experts believe that dreams can tell us about a person‟s mind and emotions.Before modern times, many people thought that dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.The Austrian psychologist, Sigmund Freud1,was probably the first person to study dreams scientifically. In his famous book, The interpretation of Dreams (1900), Freud wrote that dreams are an expression of a person‟s wishes. He believed that dreams allow people to express the feelings, thoughts, and fears that they are afraid to express in real life.The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung2was once a student of Freud‟s. Jung,however,had a different idea about dreams. Jung believed that the purpose of a dream was to communicate a message to the dreamer. He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams. For example, people who dream about falling may learn that they have too high an opinion of themselves. On the other hand, people who dream about being heroes may learn that they think too little of themselves.Modern-day psychologists continue to develop theories about dreams. For example, psychologist William Domhoff from the University of California, Santa Cruz,believes that dreams are tightly linked to a person‟s daily life, thoughts, and behavior. A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.Domhoff believes that there is a connection between dreams and age. His research shows that children do not dream as much as adults. According to Domhoff, dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop.He has also found a link between dreams and gender. His studies show that the dreams of men and women are different. For example, the people in men‟s dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting. This is not true of women‟s dreams.3 Domhoff found this gender difference in the dreams of people from 11 cultures around the world, including both modern and traditional ones.Can dreams help us understand ourselves? Psychologists continue to try to answer this question in different ways. However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn‟t panic. The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that some terrible event will actually take place. It‟s important to remember that the world of dreams is not the real world.译文:什么是梦?许多世纪以来,人们都对他们梦到的奇异事情感到疑惑。

+11 Migrant Workers 移民工人In the past twenty years, there has been an increasing tendency for worke rs to move from one country to another. While some newly independent countries have understandably restricted most jobs to local people, others have attracted and welcomed migrant workers. This is particularly the case in the Middle East ,1 where increased oil incomes have enabled many countries to call in outsiders to improve local facilities. Thus the Middle East has attracted oil-workers fr om the USA and Europe. It has brought in construction workers and technicians f rom many countries, including South Korea and Japan.In view of the difficult living and working conditions in the Middle East , 2 it is not surprising that the pay is high to attract suitable workers. Many engineers and technicians can earn at least twice as much money in the Middle East as they can in their own country, and this is a major attraction. An allie d benefit is the low taxation or complete lack of it. 3 This increases the net amount of pay received by visiting workers and is very popular with them.Sometimes a disadvantage has a compensating advantage. For example, the di fficult living conditions often lead to increased friendship when workers have to depend on each other for safety and comfort. In a similar way, many migrant workers can save large sums of money partly because of the lack of entertainmen t facilities. The work is often complex and full of problems but this merely pr esents greater challenge to engineers who prefer to find solutions to problems ratherhan do routine work in their home country.One major problem which affects migrant workers in the Middle East is that their jobs are temporary ones. They are nearly always on contract, so it is not easy for them to plan ahead with great confidence. This is to be expected sinc e no country welcomes a large number of foreign workers as permanent residents. In any case , migrant workers accept this disadvantage, along with others, bec ause of the considerable financial benefits which they receive.在过去的20年,工人从一个国家到另一个国家的趋势越来越大。
十五 20世纪人类平均寿命的变化
一百年前,发达国家的人口平均寿命约为47岁;到21世纪初,美英两国男性平均寿命约为74岁,女性则为82岁,人们的平均寿命一直在延长。
是什么造成这样的变化呢?在研究100年前人类寿命时,我们需要注意当时一些不治之症。
早在20世纪初期,这些不治之症经常是像天花之类的急性的高传染病。
许多儿童因此夭折(也有其他原因),年迈体弱的人也总面临着它们的威胁。
如今,这些疾病在发达国家已远不能致命,有一些都能被治愈。
这一变化归于许多因素,比如:环境及个人卫生的改善、抗生素的发现及使用(抗生素大大降低了细菌病的危险)以及常见疾病预防疫苗的接种。
除此之外,更洁净的空气、更好的食物保鲜方法、更舒适温暖的屋子还有对营养的进一步认识,这些总的环境的改善也促进了人们的整体健康。
从基因角度看,人都能活到85岁。
但尽管现在人们寿命确实比以前长了,仍然有一些疾病使得我们不能都活到那个岁数。
现在困扰人们的是像心脏病、中风那种更为慢性的疾病,还有像流行性感冒和艾滋病那些通过病毒传染的疾病。
当然,癌症也是一大杀手。
上述疾病大多影响着老年人,但令人担忧的问题在发达国家日趋明显,如:肥胖症产生更多心脏病、糖尿病等其他疾病患者群渐呈年轻化。
人们如今把这些疾病归为“生活方式疾病”,这意味着人们生活方式的改善有可能组织它们的进一步发展。
