As a physician who travels quite a lot, I spend a lot of time on planes listening for that dreaded “Is there a doctor on board?” announcement. I’ve been36only once-for a woman who had merely fainted. But the 37made me quite curious about how38this kind of thing happens. I wondered what I would do if39with a real mid-air medical emergency-without access40 a hospital staff and the usual emergency equipment. So   41the New England Journal of Medicine last week 42 a study about in-flight medical events, I   43it with interest.

The study estimated that there are a(n)44of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U.S. flights every day. Most of them are not 45; fainting and dizziness are the most frequent complaints.4613% of them-roughly four a day-are serious enough to 47 a pilot to change course. The most common of the serious emergencies   48heart trouble, strokes, and  difficult breathing.

Let’s face it: plane rides are 49. For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly 50they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty 51, but passengers with heart disease 52experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood.53common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis（血栓）-the so-called economy class syndrome（综合症）.54happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation（立法）, flights with at 55one attendant are starting to install emergency medical equipments to treat heart attacks.

Authorities did not release（公布）the gunman’s name, but Peters said he had no record of police contact or an arrest record while attending Northern Illionois.

DeKalb county coroner（验尸官）Dennis J. Miller on Friday released the identities of the four victims who died in the county: Daniel Parmenter, 20, of Westchester; Catalina Garcia, 20, of Cicero; RyanneMace, 19, of Carpenters-ville; and Julianna Gehant, 32, of Meridan.

“Two other victims died after being transferred to hospitals in other counties,” Miller said. Witnesses said the gunman, dressed in black and wearing a stocking cap,  emerged from behind a screen on the stage of 200-seat Cole Hall and opened fire just as the class was about to end around 3 pm.

Officials said 162 students were registered for the class but it was unkown how many were there on Thursday.

Allyse Jerome, 19, a sophomore（大二学生）from Shunmburg, said the gunman burst through a stage door and pulled out a gun.

“Honestly, at first everyone thought it was a joke,” Jerome said. Everyone hit the floor, she said. Then she got up and ran, but tripped. She said she felt like “an open target.”

“He could’ve decided to get me,” Jerome said on Friday. “I thought for sure he was gonna get me.”

Lauren Carr said she was sitting in the third row when she saw the shooter walk through a door on the right-hand side of the stage, pointing a gun straight ahead.

“I personally Army-crawled halfway up the aisle（通道）,” said Carr, a 20-year-old sophomore. “I said I could get up and run or I could die here.”

She said a student in front of her was bleeding, “but he just kept running.”

More than a hundred students cried and hugged as they gathered outside the Phi Kappa Alpha house early Friday morning to remember Dan Parmenter, who was one of those killed.

A study published Monday found that people who sleep less tend to be fat, and experts said it’s time to find out if more sleep will fight fatness.

“We’ve put so much emphasis on diet and exercise that we've failed to recognize the value of good sleep,” said Fred Turek, a physician at Northwestern University.

Monday’s study from Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk covered 1,000 people and found that total sleep time decreased as body mass index - a measure of weight based on height - increased.

Men slept an average of 27 minutes less than women and overweight and fat patients slept less than patients with normal weights, it said. In general the fatter subjects slept about 1.8 hours a week less than those with normal weights.

“Americans experience insufficient sleep and fat bodies. Clinicians are aware of the burden of fatness on patients,” the study said.

“Our findings suggest that major extensions of sleep time may not be necessary, as an extra 20 minutes of sleep per night seems to be associated with a lower body mass index,” it added.

“We caution that this study does not establish a cause-and-effect relationship between restricted sleep and fatness (but) investigations indicating success in weight loss via extensions of sleep would help greatly to set up such a relationship.”

The study was published in the Archives of Internal Medicine along with an editorial by Turek and Northwestern colleague Joseph Bass commenting on it and related research.

In an interview, Turek said some studies have shown sleep causes declines in an appetite suppressing protein hormone, and increases in another hormone that causes a longing for food. In addition neuropathies（神经疗法）in the brain governing sleep and fatness appear to overlap（重叠）, he said.

Patness has been rising dramatically in developed countries and reached epidemic（流行病） levels in the United States, it added, leading to a variety of health problems.

66. What’s the passage mainly about?

A. People who sleep less tend to get fat.

B. Fat people need lots of sleep to lose weight.

C. Sleeping has nothing to do with fatness.

D. Fatness has been rising dramatically in developed countries.

67. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Lack of sleep causes declines in a desire limiting protein hormone.

B. Americans experience sufficient sleep and fat bodies.

C. The findings suggest that major extensions of sleep time may be necessary.

D. Fatness has been rising dramatically in America.

68. Which of the following is NOT close to the underlined word suppress?

A. limit          B. restrict       C. accept         D. control

69. According to the passage, which of the following people is the lowest possible one to get fatness?

A. Americans      B. Chinese        C. Japanese       D. English

70. We can conclude the attitude of the author is________according to the passage.

A. worried        B. uninterested   C. critical       D. optimistic

Dog walkers provide a 20 to 60-minute daily walk for a client’s（客户）dog, making sure the dog answers the call of nature and gets proper exercise. They often walk more than one dog at a time. Some walkers work for dog-walking services, especially when starting out. Others have their own businesses, and build by word of mouth and advertising. Dog walkers often work part-time, and some provide other services like pet sitting or transporting.

In N.Y.C., dog walkers usually earn about $25 an hour. If you work for a dog-walking business, you may earn less-if you are on your own dealing with several dogs at the same time, it may be more.

What do you have to do to be a dog walker?

First, have a real love of dogs, and have a good knowledge of how to get on with dogs. Try calling dog-walking services to find out about openings. If you’re on your own, you’ll need to network and market yourself. You might advertise your services in pet offices, grooming businesses, or neighborhood papers. You will need business cards and a mobile phone, and have good references and a clean background. You’ll also have to deal with taxes and insurance. You should be physically fit, friendly, neatly dressed and extremely dependable. Many dog walkers are bonded（被担保的）and insured, and this is a definite selling point to clients.

Of course, you will be cleaning up dog waste! You will also be outside in all kinds of weather. You may have to deal with dogs that don’t like each other ,and difficult owners. It’s also an up and down kind of business-clients can come and go.

For pet lovers, spending the workday with dogs instead of navigating office politics is its own reward! You are your own boss-you can dress casually, your doggy clients will love you unconditionally, and you’ll get some great exercise!

71. By writing the passage the writer tries to________.

A. introduce you to a job           B. enrich your knowledge about pets

C. advertise for a business         D. tell you more about life in New York

72. The passage offers no information about how to________as a dog walker.

A. find a client                    B. train a dog

C. get prepared                     D. make more money

73. One who wants to________may find the passage helpful.

A. take up a weekend job            B. keep a good pet dog

C. make money in his daily spare time  D. be a part-time office worker

74. The last paragraph but one (beginning with “Of course”) is meant to tell you________.

A. what dog-walking is like         B. why dog-walking is worth trying

C. the unknown part of dog-walking  D. the bad side of dog-walking

75. What does the underlined word casually in the last paragraph possibly mean?

A. as you like                      B. like a boss

C. in a dog-friendly way            D. in nice clothes
