Do you know why people yawn (打哈欠)? The most obvious answer is that we yawn because we are tired. But why does being tired make us yawn? How does yawning help us? The truth is that we don’t know the answers to these questions. Scientists have different theories about why we yawn, but nobody has been able to prove them.

The first one is the “oxygen theory”. In the past, one of the more popular theories was that we yawn in order to take more oxygen. When we yawn we breathe more deeply. According to this theory, our brains make us yawn because we need more oxygen. However, these days more and more scientists are against the oxygen theory.

The second one is the “brain cooling” theory. According to this theory, we yawn when our brains get too warm. Yawning makes our brains cooler again. When our brains are cooler, we can think more clearly. Yawning can help keep us alert (警觉). This theory hasn’t been proven yet, but many scientists think that it will be in the future.

Here are a few other interesting facts about yawning. First, yawning is contagious (可传染的). If you see another person yawn, then you will be more likely to yawn, too. Second, we yawn even before we are born. Studies have shown that babies yawn while they’re still in their mother’s stomach. They start to yawn after 24 weeks. Finally, we are more likely to yawn when we’re bored. Why is yawning contagious? Why do we yawn when we’re bored or tired? The truth is that we don’t have any answers to these questions, either.

1.What does “them” refer to at the end of the first paragraph?

A.Yawns. B.Scientists.

C.Theories. D.Questions.

2.What does the article say about the “oxygen theory”?

A.It’s the most recent theory. B.Few scientists believe it now.

C.More and more scientists believe it. D.We know that it’s correct.

3.What happens when a person’s brain is cooler?

A.The person gets more tired. B.The person is in a bad mood.

C.The person thinks more clearly. D.The person becomes less alert.

4.What can we learn from the passage?

A.We can yawn only after we are born.

B.We have known the answer why we yawn.

C.When we see another person yawn, we might yawn, too.

D.Scientists will never prove the “brain cooling” theory.

Hypothermia can be mild, moderate or severe. Mild hypothermia is something that most people in cold climates have experienced at one time or another. You feel so cold that your body starts to shake---not very much, but uncontrollably.

The treatment for mild hypothermia starts with getting out of the cold and, if necessary, changing into dry clothes. Drinking warm, non-alcoholic liquids and eating something sugary can stop the shivering. Taking a warm bath or sitting by a fire or doing some exercise can also help the body warm up. These are all common-sense treatments.

But treatment needs to change when people enter the moderate or severe stages of hypothermia. In that situation, their body temperature drops below thirty-five degrees Celsius. They lose the ability to think clearly. Their muscles become stiff. They might bump into things or fall over objects.

Members of search-and-rescue teams will first try to prevent additional heat loss. They will place extra covering around the chest, head and neck of hypothermia victims to keep them warm.

Hypothermia victims need medical help as soon as possible. Working quickly to get people out of the cold is important. However, hypothermia victims must be moved slowly and gently. Any rough or sudden movement can force cold blood from the arms, legs and hands deep into the warmer middle of the body. This sudden flow of cold blood can create shock, a serious condition. It can also cause an abnormal heartbeat.

Members of search-and-rescue teams have a saying that hypothermia victims are not dead until they are warm and dead. The process of "rewarming" a person needs to be done slowly, in a hospital setting.

An extremely low body temperature can cause the heart to beat so slowly that a pulse may be difficult to find. In other words, a person who is suffering from the effects of severe cold may seem dead, but still be alive.

1.According to the text, when a person experience mild hypothermia, _____.

A. he feels cold so he shakes deliberately.

B. he can drink some wine to stop the shaking.

C. he should be sent to the hospital immediately.

D. some common treatments can help him recover.

2.Which of the following expression can take the place of the underlined words?

A. break into　　 B. break down

C. knock into　　 D. sweep up

3.When people enter the moderate or severe stages of hypothermia, which of the following statement is WRONG? _________

A. If hypothermia isn’t treated correctly, the victim’s heart may not beat normally.

B. Their body temperature drops below 35℃.

C. Hypothermia victims seem alive but dead.

D. The rescue workers should first help them warm slowly and gently in a proper situation.

4.What’s the best title for the text? _____.

A. Different kinds of hypothermia

B. Medical help is important in treating hypothermia

C. How to avoid cold-weather injuries.

D. Emergency treatment for different types of hypothermia.

People are overweight for many reasons, the most important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods, get the wrong types of calories per meal, and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day. Food is more powerful than any weight loss pill(减肥药), because the food that you eat can either make you thin or fat. This is true because your body is like an engine, and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals(间隔)each day. Low-calorie Diets Do Not Work
    　 The reason people cannot lose weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism(新陈代谢)will detect any major drop in calories and it will then adjust(调整)itself by burning fewer calories each day. That is the reason why you can eat 1,000 calories per day and not lose any weight, while your friends can eat 2,500 calories per day and not gain any weight.

     Losing weight has nothing to do with these things. One of the most important things you can do to control your weight is to eat the proper foods, such as fruit and vegetables, eat them at the right time, and exercise every day. If people make this a habit, they will lose weight.
