Not only is the concept of 5:2 easy2 (grasp), it’s also a manageable approach. Got a client dinner or a birthday lunch? No problem. “From this point of view, the 5:2 diet is very good,” says nutritionist Sue Baic. “There’s good evidence to support it. It’s not for everyone — say, if you’ve got a history of eating disorders — but generally it fits in with modern life. And psychologically, you know you’ re not being too strict with3 .However, research published in 2005 showed that for long-term weight-loss success, a consistent diet approach was more successful. Participants who reported a consistent diet 4 the week were 1. 5 times more likely to maintain their weight within 2.2kg over the next year than those who dieted more strictly on weekdays. So it 5 work in the short term, but consistency, it seems, will keep you in the healthy eating game for a longer time. And a 2014 review by researchers at the University of Illinois found that daily calorie restriction is still a more effective means of losing weight than fasting. “ 6 (reduce) calorie intake below energy consumption and your diet will be successful,” explains Baic. 7 you’ve grasped this, it’s a mental game.Mindfulness in weight loss is a(n) 8 (grow) area of research. It has long been the theory behind 9 (guid) diet plans, which encourage followers to attend local groups. According to Baic, these have impressive success rates. “Diet programmes like Weight Watchers, Slimming World and Rosemary Conley give really good, evidence-based advice and offer support, so there’s a psychological side to it as well,” she says.In 2012, Dr Brian Wansink at Cornell University launched the National Mindless Eating Challenge, which examined the difference in behaviour of successful and unsuccessful dieters. Mindfulness, or being aware of 10 you’re eating, was a key factor in the success stories.二、选词填空Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

For over 20 years, Google has been the leading search engine, using its advanced algorithms to provide accurate, relevant answers to users’ questions. This success made Google a(n) 11 name, turning “to Google” into a common phrase and generating billions in advertising income. Now, the rise of AI-driven conversational tools, like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, is changing the 12 . These tools offer a different experience from traditional keyword searches by engaging users in human-like dialogues rather than just 13 a list of links. ChatGPT and similar technologies provide answers in a way that feels more personal and insightful.This technological shift opens up new ways for people to find information online. ChatGPT can handle questions on a wide range of topics, including complex or delicate ones, by 14 a conversational tone that connects with users. Its appeal lies in its ability to understand context, enabling follow-up questions and a deeper 15 into topics. Responding to this trend, tech giants are 16 the future of search. Microsoft, a key investor in OpenAI, is integrating conversational AI into its search engine, Bing. This integration includes a sidebar that summarizes results or provides extra context, creating a more comprehensive search experience.As these AI-driven tools 17 they challenge the traditional search model. Unlike standard engines that use pre-set algorithms to match keywords, conversational AI responds more18 This trend pushes Google to innovate, encouraging it to enhance its interface and integrate AI into its existing system. Such advancing technology marks a turning point in search, where 19 providing information isn’t enough. Users now look for a more interactive, 20 experience, and conversational AI may be the answer to meeting that need.三、完形填空As children, our primary source of support comes from our parents. But as we get older, we start to spend significantly more time with 21 , says Kaitlin Flannery, an associate professor in psychology at State University of New York College, Cortland. “There’s a different 22 that we have with friends; they help us shape our identity throughout our life.”Flannery points out that in its initial stages, friendship is built on similarity. “We’ re social creatures. We want 23 ,” says Flannery. “We want approval from not only our family, but our same-agers. And so that’s where friendships start to really become these essential 24 of social support, but also fun and companionship.”Much of the research on friendship dissolution has focused on children and adolescents, an age when it is quite common for friendships to 25 . In Flannery’s research, looking at a sample of 354 middle school students, 86% said they had a friendship end recently. Most put it down to conflict or a betrayal of trust. Another predictor was the lack of support from friends, or that they felt they weren’t getting what was needed from their friends — 26 , companionship, or no longer having fun together. The ending of friendships reportedly stirred 27 emotions for the middle schoolers, including sadness, but also happiness and relief, depending on why the dissolution happened, how it ended, and who initiated it.In some cases, friendships are simply 28 from “best” friend status to “good” friends. Another year-long study of friendship in seventh graders saw that’ only about half of “best friendships” remained 29 throughout the school year. Older adolescents’ friendships are moderately more consistent over the course over the school year, the research suggests.Such high school friendships may 30 as friends move apart for university and college. This may partly be caused by the physical 31 that is introduced between friends. But, as young adults navigate increasingly complex social networks, as well as their own andothers’ expectations, friendships can also become less consistent.As in the previous life stages, friendship dissolvement is also an opportunity for young adults to practice getting along with others. One study found that people with a “ 32 ” mindset about relationships — meaning, the belief that relationships require effort and can grow and develop — were more willing to maintain and work on their friendships. Others may feel that as their interests change, it is more rewarding to spend time with 33 friends.But strong friendships can survive and 34 to such life changes, research shows. “Whenever I look at friendship dissolution, my takeaway is there are certain aspects of life that can disrupt friendships, but there are also just as many examples of friendships that have been able to 35 these life changes and grow closer,” says Flannery.21．A．teachers B．parents C．agents D．peers 22．A．problem B．bond C．lesson D．argument 23．A．acceptance B．assistance C．attention D．association 24．A．requirements B．purposes C．sources D．services 25．A．turn off B．break out C．turn over D．break apart 26．A．on the contrary B．as a result C．for example D．in addition 27．A．positive B．shallow C．negative D．complex 28．A．heightened B．exported C．downgraded D．separated 29．A．neutral B．unclear C．weak D．stable 30．A．work B．renew C．fade D．last 31．A．distance B．feature C．contact D．development 32．A．awareness B．growth C．science D．humanity 33．A．new B．young C．adult D．close 34．A．adapt B．return C．stick D．object 35．A．facilitate B．weather C．assess D．monitor四、阅读理解When people take with them their own expectations about tipping as they travel around the world, it generates no small amount of confusion. Norwegians, who come from a culture wherewages are high and tips are low, could burn through Las Vegas leaving a trail of outrage with their tiny offerings. Meanwhile, high-tipping Americans might offend everyone in Tokyo because good service in Japan is a matter of honour, as in: “How dare you suggest I be rewarded for handing you a plate of sashimi without dropping it in your lap?”We’re all in an embarrassed mess because there’s no consistent logic to any of this. None!Tipping, as we know it, started in Tudor England when noblemen visited each other’s country homes and gave extra money to the servants as a thank-you for helping them with their clothing. Hundreds of years later, the tradition has become totally random. A recent study found that people are twice as likely to tip a grocery delivery person than a grocery store clerk, and roughly twice as likely to tip a waiter than a fast-food restaurant worker. Why is that? A paid job is a paid job, right? The grocery deliverer is paid to deliver and the grocery clerk is paid to clerk. So tipping one and not the other only makes sense in terms of what has become customary.No one expects a tip in much of Southeast Asia or Australia, beyond saying “keep the change.” Compare that to the United States, where restaurant tips of up to 25 percent are now expected for very good service; in Canada, it’s 15 to 20 percent. Sometimes, that too can feel tense. “Even when the server tells you about it up front, it’s awkward,” one friend who encountered this custom said. “Do you tip more if they were really good? What if they weren’t good?”It’s enough to make your head hurt — but will we soon have to worry about tipping with bitcoin? I don’t even understand the notion of cryptocurrency (数字加密货币), much less how to use the new tipping apps that are popping up around it. Maybe that’s how people used to feel about money itself, back when they traded goods and services with shells and weapons and rice. Back when there was no tipping.36．The first paragraph is intended to ______ .A．emphasize the universal importance of tippingB．illustrate the global variations in tipping practicesC．argue that tipping customs are outdated in certain culturesD．describe the economic impact of tipping on different countries37．By origin, a tip was ______ .A．a customary part of grocery deliveryB．an expected payment for essential servicesC．a gesture of gratitude from the upper classD．a modern concept in cryptocurrency transactions38．What can be learned about Americans’ tipping practices from the passage?A．Americans are used to give tips wherever they go.B．Americans give fatter tips in restaurants than elsewhere.C．Americans are generally unwilling but forced to give a tip.D．Americans mainly tip those who provide very good service. 39．The author mention bitcoin when talking about tipping in order to ______ .A．argue that traditional tipping methods are outdatedB．suggest that cryptocurrency may complicate tipping customsC．criticize the idea of using virtual currency for everyday purchaseD．emphasize that digital payments have simplified the tipping processCandy crystalsWatch in awe as you grow your own edible, crunchy, candy crystals.The longer you leave them, the bigger they get!40．Which of the following procedures is correct for making candy crystals?① heat the water ① add sugar ① add color ① add skewer ① cool the waterA．①①①①①B．①①①①①C．①①①①①D．①①①①①41．Why is it important to suspend the wooden skewer in the center of the glass, away from the bottom?A．To allow the water to leave the solution more quickly.B．To prevent the skewer from absorbing too much sugar.C．To make sure the skewer does not touch the food coloring.D．To ensure crystals grow consistently on all sides of the skewer.42．Emma has been growing candy crystals in her kitchen. After three days, she notices that thecrystals have stopped growing, and there is a thin film on the surface of the solution. What should she do next to encourage further crystal growth?A．Stir the solution.B．Place the jar in a cooler area.C．Remove the film.D．Add more water to the solution.Emotional manipulation(情感操控) has been referred to as the dark side of emotional intelligence by psychological scientist Elizabeth Austin at the University of Edinburgh. But what does that mean? Austin and her colleagues created the Emotional Manipulation Scale in 2007. According to the scale, people who are high on emotional manipulation say yes to behaving in ways that have no obvious negative consequences such as “I know how to embarrass someone to stop them behaving in a particular way”, and “I know how to play two people off against each other”.Less obviously negative behaviours can also result in a high score, including agreeing with statements like “I can pay someone compliments to get in their good books”, and “I am good at reassuring people so that they’re more likely to go along with what I say”. The researchers also found that the higher people scored on the Emotional Manipulation Scale the higher they scored on Machiavellianism, a trait that includes being cold, morally indifferent, and manipulative.Framing manipulation as a bad thing that is only done by bad people is, however, incorrect. There are many reasons why people want to massage a social situation so that it works out well for themselves that don’t result in negative consequences for others. Self-interest can agree with the interest of others and can lead to prosocial (亲社会的) behaviour. For example, sometimes I do things to make other people feel good because I know it will make me feel good. It’s win-win.This complexity is also what Austin and colleagues showcased when in 2013 they created the Managing the Emotions of Others Scale on the basis of their original scale.Moving from the term “manipulation” to “managing” encourages a different way of talking about this type of behaviour. The most recent short version of the Managing the Emotions of Others Scale was published in 2018 by Austin and colleagues. It breaks down the diversity of ways in which people try to emotionally manage people into five types. The first two are generally prosocial, the third and fourth are non-prosocial, and the fifth is considered neutral.Enhancing: strategically offering help, reassurance, or showing understanding to improvesomeone’s mood.Diverting: being positive or using humour to improve someone’s mood.Worsening: using criticism or negative comments, undermining confidence, or being angry to gain something.Being inauthentic: flattering someone, sulking or guilt-tripping to get what you want.Concealing: hiding how you really feel, particularly hiding negative emotions. 43．According to the passage, what is the primary focus of the Emotional Manipulation Scale?A．Measuring the moral implications of emotionally manipulative behaviors.B．Defining the prosocial aspects of emotional manipulation in a modern way.C．Identifying behaviors associated with manipulating others’ emotions positively.D．Assessing tendencies toward emotional manipulation through certain behaviors. 44．What can be learned about those scoring high on the Emotional Manipulation Scale?A．They are more likely to show their sympathy.B．They may well lack a sense of moral concern.C．They may well focus primarily on prosocial behavior.D．They are likely to avoid using humor in social interactions.45．Why did Austin and colleagues create the Managing the Emotions of Others Scale in 2013?A．To shift to a broader understanding of emotional influence.B．To replace the previous scale with a more accurate measure.C．To emphasize the negative consequences of emotional manipulation.D．To lead people to pay more attention to emotional management skills.46．Which of the following is an example of “diverting”?A．At a tense family dinner, you tell a funny story to lighten the mood.B．When your sister is frustrated, you hide your stress to keep her calm.C．After a disagreement, you give your friend a compliment to make things right.D．You remind a coworker of his good work when he is upset about missing a deadline.Why low prices can scare off customersDespite all the great deals on Black Friday, it turns out cheaper isn’t always better. New research suggests that low prices can backfire for retailers, as consumers may interpret them as asign of low-quality products. 47 Which theory consumers follow depends on what shoppers think about when making their decision to buy a product.“The bottom line of our research is that people can hold two opposing beliefs about a product,” said Steve Posavac, Professor in Marketing at Vanderbilt University. “In the case of price, most people believe that low prices mean good value and that low prices mean low quality at the same time. 48 ”“Consumers rarely have complete information. They use various strategies to fill the gaps in their knowledge as they consider and choose products.” said Posavac and his co-authors. “One of these strategies involves using naive theories: informal, common sense, explanations that consumers use to make sense of their environment. ”49 In the research, when the quality of a product was marketed, consumers looked more favorably upon more expensive products. However, when companies focused on value, a cheap product was rated more highly in the opinion of consumers.“A company may implement an everyday low-pricing strategy that manages to reduce brand value and push consumers’ away, if many of them believe that low prices equal low quality,” said Posavac. “ 50 Companies design a strategy by assuming that a certain naive theory is going to drive consumer evaluation and choice when, in fact, several naive theories are available to the consumer. ”A．But these two beliefs are not equally present in consumers’ minds all the time.B．Buyers are more likely to buy now if they see a single large price decrease on a series of smaller price increases.C．Companies can help to influence how consumers feel about low prices by improving marketing strategies.D．However, the researchers also found that consumers also see cheap prices as a sign of a great deal.E．Over the years, customers have become so used to sales that they no longer believe they were getting a good deal.F．While large numbers of consumers are seeking out the lowest prices as a way to save money, it’s not necessarily a race.五、书面表达51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage. Use your own words as far as possible.The Silent Corridor DebateAt a secondary school in London, a new rule requires students to remain silent in the corridors between classes, aiming to create a quieter, more disciplined environment. The school believes that minimizing noise during transition times helps students maintain focus and encourages a sense of order, ultimately leading to better academic performance. However, this rule has received mixed reactions.Supporters of the rule argue that silence in the corridors can significantly reduce distractions. Noise from talking students can carry into classrooms, particularly in open-plan layouts, disturbing those who are already focused on their work. By enforcing quiet corridors, the school hopes to promote an environment where students can stay calm and focused throughout the day. Moreover, proponents argue that this policy teaches students valuable skills such as self-discipline and respect for rules, which are beneficial not only in school but also in their future professional and personal lives.On the other hand, critics believe that banning students from talking in the corridors is overly restrictive and can have negative effects on their social development. They argue that school is not just a place for academic learning but also an environment where students develop social skills. Brief conversations in the corridors offer students a chance to connect with their peers, share ideas, and even seek help with subjects they find challenging. Critics worry that rigid silence policies make schools feel too controlled, potentially dampening students’ enthusiasm and turning the learning environment into something that feels more like a prison than a place of growth and discovery.This debate raises a larger question about discipline in schools: should they enforce strict rules for silence to improve focus, or allow some social interaction, even if it means more noise? Finding the right balance is challenging. In the end, each school may decide based on its goals and values, weighing the benefits of quiet focus against the importance of social connections and student well- being._______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________六、翻译52．数字化工具在建筑行业的应用越来越广泛。

For example, people who live in locations that get lots of solar radiation are more likely to have a sweat gland gene variant that may help them cool off more efficiently, geneticist Anna Di Rienzo reported. Humans have settled across the globe, contending with vastly different landscapes, heat, UV radiation levels, food types and pathogens（病原体）. By sorting through loads of genetic data from around the globe, Di Rienzo and her colleagues found that one version of a gene that produces a protein found in sweat glands is more common among people living in hot, sunny locales.The team divided up the world’s regions, classifying them by factors such as polar, dry, tropical and humid. They also sorted out how inhabitants got their food, including data such as whether they were farmers or foragers(觅食者) and what they ate. A variant of a gene called keratin 77, which has a role in the sweat gland, was associated with locations that get high levels of solar radiation in the summer.The study also found many other gene variants that are tied to climatic gradients such as precipitation（降水量）. This approach is different from other ways that researchers look for gene-environment associations because it allows environmental categories to guide researchers’ predictions about what the gene variants do, rather than taking a more “agnostic” view that ignores the ways that different habitats can influence the prevalence of certain genes, Di Rienzo says.On the other hand, Peter Zimmerman of Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine in Cleveland says that all sorts of things can influence the genome: “It’s environmental effects, and exposure to different food, different diseases, and different amount of sunlight.” Zimmerman says that while it’s true the environment can sculpt the human genome, its effects are likely to come at a glacial pace. “How rapidly the human genome responds to change, I would say it’s going to be slow. Our generation time is not fast.”18. The study of Di Rienzo and her colleagues shows that _________.A) people from different geographic regions are vastly differentB) people living in hot, sunny locales are more vulnerable to radiationC) genetic variation is more common among people living in hot, sunny localesD) the environment may play a role in changing the human genome19. Which statement is true about keratin 77(Paragraph 2)?A) It was discovered by geneticist Anna Di Rienzo.B) It produces a protein to protect people from some viruses.C) It may help people cool off more efficiently.D) It only exists in a small number of people.20. Other approaches do not yield the same useful results as Di Rienzo’s study because thoseresearchers do not ________.A) divide the world into different regionsB) consider the influence of habitat on genesC) predict what the gene variants doD) include climatic factors in their study21. According to Zimmerman, the environmental impact on genetic change ________.A) is trifle enough to be neglectedB) cannot be separated from other factorsC) cause many problems in our generation timeD) takes a long time to be seen22. The purpose of this piece of writing is to ________.A) advertiseB) informC) clarifyD) criticizePassage 2The most famous swimmer among the English poets, Lord Byron, wrote a jaunty poem on the activity that made him legendary throughout Europe in his lifetime. "Written After Swimming from Sestos to Abydos" reverses and updates the old myth of Leander, who braved the Hellespont every evening to visit Hero on the other side. Whereas the lissome (敏捷的) Greek swam for love, Byron allows that he, "degenerate modern wretch," aimed for fame and glory on the one-mile swim in strong currents he took on May 3, 1810. And where Leander perished in his pursuit, Byron comes out of his adventure with nothing nobler than "the ague," a cold. He took to the water for the same reason that he took so easily to horseback: he could do anything but walk normally. Swimming hid a congenital deformity, a clubfoot, and allowed him to forget it temporarily.With Byron, swimming really enters English literature. The 19th century is full of swimming writers, most notably Arthur Hugh Clough and Algernon Charles Swinburne, the latter of whom preferred dangerous coasts. But there aren't many of them before Byron, aside from Marlowe. Even after the 19th century, writers have tended to ignore the activity: not just poets but also fiction writers and journalists. For every sports writer with an interest in baseball, boxing, or football there has been almost no one to testify to the beauties and pleasures of this loneliest of physical activities, as either an observer or a participant.The reasons for the activity's relative literary neglect are not hard to find. By definition, swimming excludes husbands and wives, lovers, everyone else in the world, indeed everything else except for one's thoughts. Swimming, unique among physical activities, diminishes and almost eliminates the sense of sight, our primary means of engagement with the physical world.Swimming does not come naturally to anyone, except perhaps to those newborns whose mothers decide to return them to a new equivalent of amniotic fluid soon after they emerge from the womb. Otherwise, it's an activity fraught with fear--of sinking, drowning, losing sight, losing control--until one learns to give oneself in or up to water's buoyancy. In addition, before the Salk vaccine more or less eliminated the polio virus, public swimming pools, like drinking fountains, were places burdened with danger. Unlike walking, which we can do without being taught, or even running, which kids do automatically, swimming requires not only instruction but also a kind of courage. My first instructions probably took place at summer day camp under the supervision of a patient counselor, or perhaps even at the hands of my own unathletic parents at a local pool or at the beach in Atlantic City. I must have made it from one end of the pool to the other in high school gym class. I must have splashed in back-yard or country-club pools when I was a teenager. I know I did, but I also know that I was by no stretch of the imagination a swimmer.23. According to Byron himself, he swam the one-mile swim because he wanted to ________.A) seek inspiration to write a poemB) relive the old myth of LeanderC) pursue a romantic adventureD) let people look up to him24.

There were many swimming writers ________.A) before the 19th centuryB) during the 19th centuryC) after the 19th centuryD) in ancient Greece26. Writers may not take to swimming probably because swimming ________.A) deprives them of visual inspirationB) requires them to stop thinking about anythingC) demands much physical strengthD) is too difficult for them to learn27. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the writer’s parents ___________.A) are very good swimmersB) taught the writer how to swim from the very beginningC) are not very good at swimmingD) don’t like swimming as much as other physical activitiesPassage 3The financial crisis came about because we got complacent, depending on all-knowing financial experts — mortgage lenders, Wall Street sharpers, the Federal Reserve — to run our system expertly. But then the experts did the same thing, imagining that they had laid off all their risks on other experts. Until finally the last expert down the line turned out to be just another greater fool, and the system crashed.We still need experts. But we can no longer abdicate judgment to them or to the system they've cobbled together. This country, after all, was created by passionately engaged amateurs. The American spirit really is the amateur spirit. The great mass of European settlers were amateur explorers, and their grandchildren and great-grandchildren who created the U.S. were amateur politicians. "I see democracy," the late historian Daniel Boorstin wrote, as "government by amateurs, as a way of confessing the limits of our knowledge." In the early 19th century, Alexis de Tocqueville approvingly noted the absence of "public careers" in America — that is, the scarcity of professional politicians.Amateurs do the things they want to do in the ways they want to do them. They don't worry too much about breaking rules and aren't paralyzed by a fear of imperfection or even failure. Active citizenship is all about tapping into one's amateur spirit. "But hold on," you say. "I will never understand credit-default swaps or know how to determine the correct leverage ratio for banks." Me neither, and I don't want to depend on an amateur physician telling me how to manage my health. But we can trust our reality-based hunches about fishy-looking procedures and unsustainable projects and demand that the supposed experts explain their supposed expertise in ways we do understand. The American character is two-sided to an extreme and paradoxical degree. On the one hand, we are sober and practical and commonsensical, but on the other hand, we are wild and crazy speculators. The full-blown amateur spirit derives from this same paradox.I like paradoxes, which is why, even though I'm not particularly religious, Zen Buddhism has always appealed to me. Take the paradoxical state that Buddhists seek to achieve, what they call sho-shin, or "beginner's mind." The 20th century Japanese Zen master Shunryu Suzuki, who spent the last dozen years of his life in America, famously wrote that "in the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's mind there are few." Which sounds to me very much like the core of Boorstin's amateur spirit. "The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance," Boorstin wrote, "but the illusion of knowledge."28. According to the writer, the financial crisis occurred mainly due to ________.A) our ignorance of risksB) the foolishness of expertsC) our blind trust in expertsD) the ill-running of the system29. It can be inferred from the second paragraph that, compared with all-knowing experts, the latehistorian Daniel Boorstin was ________.A) less arrogantB) less knowledgeableC) more practicalD) more energetic30. The writer encourages people to tap into their amateur spirit and ________.A) take care of their own affairsB) break old rules fearlesslyC) make their own judgment about things around themD) determine the correct leverage ratio for banks31. What the amateur spirit and the "beginner's mind" in Zen Buddhism have in common is________.A) the openness of the mindB) the illusion of knowledgeC) the paradox of beliefD) the ignorance of one’s own strength32. Which of the following descriptions does not apply to the amateur spirit?A) commonsensicalB) reality-basedC) open-mindedD) religiousSection B Short Answer Questions Based on Long Reading Passages Directions: There are two long reading passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. Read the passages and answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Put your answer on the fourth page of the Answer Sheets.Passage 1In kids 3 to 7 years old, acupuncture plus glasses helped vision improve compared with just glasses alone, said study co-author Dr. Dennis Shun-Chiu Lam, who chairs the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.Amblyopia, or lazy eye, is when vision in one eye is worse than the other. About two to three in 100 people have lazy eye, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology. (It's not the same as "wandering eye," or strabismus — when the eyes point in two different directions — although people often use "lazy eye" to describe both.)At the beginning of the study, all of the kids' vision in the bad eye was about the same, around 20/63. The kids who got acupuncture as well as glasses had about 20/32 vision in their bad eye, on average. This is compared to about 20/40 vision in kids that only wore the glasses.The difference between 20/32 and 20/40 is about the equivalent of being able to read about one line further down on the eye chart, said Dr. Marc Lustig, an assistant professor in department of ophthalmology at the New York University Medical Center.But there's not much of a difference between these two vision scores in real-life terms, Lustig, who did not work on the study, told Reuters Health. And this study is not going to change how eyedoctors treat lazy eye in kids, he noted.Lazy eye is usually treated with glasses or patches to train the bad eye to work better, he said.If left untreated, kids may lose depth perception, or the vision loss may become permanent. After age 9 or so, it can no longer be corrected, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology.A previous study by the same group suggested that acupuncture may work as well as patches for treating lazy eye. (See Reuters Health story of December 16, 2010.)The researchers gave 83 kids with lazy eye in China corrective glasses, then measured how well they could see out of both eyes. Half of the kids were treated with acupuncture five times a week for 15 weeks, then the groups switched. Their eyes were tested at 15, 30, and 60 weeks.After 30 weeks, when both groups had received both the glasses and acupuncture, vision in the bad eye was around 20/30 in both groups.The study, published in the journal Ophthalmology, was what's called a crossover study. That meant that the groups' treatments alternated, so that both had some time with only glasses, and with and without acupuncture."With a crossover design, every child would be promised to have a chance to receive acupuncture, so that it is easier to recruit study subjects and lower the dropout rate," Lam told Reuters Health by email.This is a serious limitation, said Dr. Peter Lipson, an internist in southeastern Michigan, who did not work on the study."I don't think there's any malicious intent, but if you already know that these are people who like acupuncture, they're going to be extremely susceptible to a nice placebo effect," he told Reuters Health.Since both groups received the acupuncture, this anticipation of benefit would be similar in both groups, Lam said, and the placebo effect should have been minimized.Overall, past research has shown that acupuncture is something that makes use of the placebo effect, Lipson said, "which a warm handshake and a smile can do as well."Acupuncture costs vary widely depending on where you live, but ranges anywhere from $25 to $120 a treatment. At this rate, the treatments in the study would cost somewhere between $1,875 and $9,000. Disposable patches cost about $10 a month, Lustig said.It's an interesting study, he said, "but I don't think it's going to change clinical practice in Western medicine, because you're taking an un-invasive treatment and kind of making it invasive.""At least in the U.S., I don't see people sending their 5-year-olds for acupuncture," Lustig said.SAQ 1. From the information we have in the passage, we can know that ophthalmology is the study of _______________________________________ and diseases that affect them.SAQ 2. Amblyopia is different from strabismus as people with amblyopia can see with their eyes pointing _______________________________________.SAQ 3. At what age should lazy eye be treated?_______________________________________.SAQ 4. The crossover study was designed because the researchers wanted to recruit children with amblyopia and _______________________________________.SAQ 5. People who are against the use of acupuncture believe that it's the_______________________________________ that makes the children see or feelbetter after the treatment.Passage 2There is no more pressing topic in education today than closing the achievement gap, and there is no one in America who knows more about the gap than Ronald Ferguson.Although he is a Harvard professor based in Cambridge, Mass., Dr. Ferguson, 60, spends lots of time flying around the country visiting racially mixed public high schools. Part of what he does is academic, measuring the causes of the gap by annually surveying the performance, behaviors and attitudes of up to 100,000 students. And part is serving as a de facto educational social worker, meeting with students, faculty members and parents to explain what steps their schools can take to narrow the gap.The gap is about race, of course, and it inevitably inflames passions. But there is something about Dr. Ferguson’s bearing — he is both big (6-foot-3) and soft-spoken — that gets people to listen.Morton Sherman, the Alexandria school superintendent, watched him defuse the anger at a meeting of 300 people. “He talks about these things in a professorial way, a kind way,” Dr. Sherman said. “It’s not about him. He doesn’t try to be a rock star, although he is a rock star in this field.”While he has a personal stake in closing the gap as an African-American parent who has raised three boys, Dr. Ferguson does not get emotional in tense situations — he gets factual.Geoffrey Canada, president of the Harlem Children’s Zone and star of the documentary “Waiting for Superman,” calls him a “national treasure.” Michael Casserly, director of the Council of the Great City Schools says, “He has done more to help us understand the dynamics behind the achievement gap than anyone else in the country.” Marian Wright Edelman, founder of the Children’s Defense Fund, calls him “thoughtful, careful, fearless.”And yet, as best he can remember — and he is a busy man with lots on his mind — he has never been the subject of a profile in the news media.One reason may be that his views on the gap are too research-based and nuanced to accommodate in a sound bite.He is not as famous as John Ogbu, the late African-born Berkeley professor who argued that the gap could be explained by the cultural behavior of African-Americans, like mocking hard-working classmates for “acting white.”Nor is he as famous as Charles Murray, co-author of “The Bell Curve,” who suggested that the achievement gap is explained by inherited low intelligence.Unlike Dr. Ogbu, an anthropology professor, and Dr. Murray, a political scientist, Dr. Ferguson has his doctorate in economics from M.I.T.; he has been trained to quantify everything. From his surveys of students in dozens of wealthy, racially mixed suburbs — including Evanston, Ill.; Maplewood, N.J.; and Shaker Heights, Ohio — he has calculated that the average grade ofblack students was C-plus, while white students averaged a B-plus. The gap.At the high school here, T. C. Williams — the setting of the movie “Remember the Titans” — he found that 55 percent of white girls reported having an A or A-minus average, compared with less than 20 percent of black girls and boys.His research indicates that half the gap can be predicted by economics: even in a typical wealthy suburb, blacks are not as well-to-do; 79 percent are in the bottom 50 percent financially, while 73 percent of whites are in the top 50 percent.The other half of the gap, he has calculated, is that black parents on average are not as academically oriented in raising their children as whites. In a wealthy suburb he surveyed, 40 percent of blacks owned 100 or more books, compared with 80 percent of whites. In first grade, the percentage of black and white parents reading to their children daily was about the same; by fifth grade, 60 percent to 70 percent of whites still read daily to their children, compared with 30 percent to 40 percent of blacks.He also works with teachers to identify biases, for instance: black children are less likely to complete homework because they are lazy. His research indicates that blacks and whites spend the same amount of time on homework, but blacks are less likely to finish. “It’s not laziness,” he says. “It’s a difference in skills.”How these messages get delivered is crucial. “I don’t want to be another one of those people lecturing black parents,” he says. “I tell them we in the black community — we — need to build stronger intellectual lives at home.”He recalls speaking to a primarily white group at Georgia State University. Afterward, a black parent came up to him. “He told me, ‘I’m not saying you’re wrong, but I’m not comfortable with you saying it in front of this audience,’ ” Dr. Ferguson said. “And I said, ‘It’s not ideal, but this was an opportunity to get these things to you.’ ”SAQ 6. Dr. Ronald Ferguson does his job both as an academic researcher and as an _______________________________________.SAQ 7. At various meetings, while the listeners may show their anger at the situation in the country, Dr. Ferguson does not _______________________________________.SAQ 8. What are the three adjectives Edelman uses to describe Dr. Ferguson?_______________________________________SAQ 9. How does Dr. Ferguson's research method differ from Ogbu's or Murray's?_______________________________________.SAQ 10. According to Dr. Ferguson's research, the achievement gap is caused by two factors. 1.Blacks are not _______________________________________. 2.
