11、d to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they - 4 -wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that?” I
12、 asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.“Surgery (外科手术) ”,one replied. I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to gettin
13、g a job. One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows, you can get at least 5 Cm taller!”At that point, I was shocked. I am short, I cant deny
14、 that, but I dont think I would put myself through months of agony (痛苦)just to be a few centimeters taller. I dont even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as Im not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”,and that is an ide
15、al that just does not exist in reality.No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea

28、cine Journal.After tracking more than 20,000 people aged 45 to 79 years in the United Kingdom from about 1993 to 2007, Kay-Tee Khaw of the University of Cambridge and his colleagues found that people who adopted these four healthy habits lived an - 7 -average of 14 years longer than those who didnt.
29、“Weve known for a long time that these behaviors are good things to do, but weve not seen this benefit before,” said Susan Jebb, head of Nutrition and Health at Britains Medical Research Council. “The benefit was also seen regardless of whether or not people were fat and what social class they came
30、from.”Study participants (参与者)scored a point each for not smoking, regular physical activity, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables a day and moderate alcohol intake.Public health experts said they hoped the study would inspire governments to introduce policies helping people to adopt these
31、changes. But because the study only observed people rather than testing specific changes,it would be impossible to conclude that people who suddenly adopted these healthy behaviors would surely gain 14 years.“We cant say that any person could gain 14 years by doing these things,” said Dr. Tim Armstr
32、ong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization. “The 14 years is an average across the population of whats theoretically (理论上.地)possible.”“Most people know that things like a good diet matter and that smoking isnt good for them”,Susan Jebb said. “We need to work on providing people

As kids, we have relied on it to settle disagreements with friends 一 from which channel to watch to who gets to eat the last ice-creamall because we think the results arc completely random.But are they?Wang Zhijian, PhD, a professor at Zhejiang University, believes th
37、at there is a regulation behind this simple game. So he gathered 360 students, divided them into groups of six and had each group play 300 rounds of rock-paper-scissors, reported USA Today.After the first results, Wang thought he was wrong, because players chose each of the three moves about one-thi
38、rd of the time, suggesting that the game is random after all. However, Wang later noticed a surprising regulation of behavior in the data.When players won a round, they usually stuck to the same choice. But when they lost, they tended to change to a more powerful move. For example, if Player A had j
39、ust thrown down scissors to beat Player Bs paper, Player A was more likely to throw down scissors again while Player B was likely to choose rock, since rock beats scissors.According to Wang, this might be a function that is called “conditional response”. So, for the next step of his study, as he tol
