  Most Adults in US Have Low Risk of Heart Disease
  More than 80 percent of US adults have a less than 10-percent risk of developing heart disease in the next 10 years,according to a report in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.Just 3 percent have a risk that exceeds 20 percent.
  "I hope that these numbers will give physicians,researchers,health policy analysts,and others a better idea of how coronary heart disease is distributed in the US population,"lead author Dr.Earl S.Ford,from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta,said in a statement.
  The findings are based on analysis of data from 13,769 subjects,between 20 and 79 years of age,who narticipated in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1988 to 1994.
  Overall,82 percent of adults had a risk of less than 10 percent,15 percent had a risk that fell between 10 to 20 percent,and 3 percent had a risk above 20 percent.
  The proportion of subjects in the highest risk group increased with advancing age,and men were more likely than women to be in this group.By contrast,race or ethnicity had little effect on risk distributions.
  Although the report suggests that most adults have a low 10-year risk of heart disease,a large proportion have ahigh or immediate risk,Dr.Daniel S.Berman,from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles,and Dr.NathanD.Wong,from the University of California at Irvine,note in a related editorial.
  Aggressive treatment measures and public health strategies are needed to shift the overall population risk downward,they add.
  According to the passage,which of the following may contribute to the risk of getting heart disease?
  A:Age.
  B:Ethnicity.
  C:Race.
  D:Citizenship.

  Acceptance of Chronic Illness
  Holding on to hope may not make patients happier as they deal with chronic illnesses or diseases,
  according to a new study by University of Michigan Health System researchers.
  "Hope is an important part of happiness,"said Peter A.Ubel,M.D.director of the U-M Center for
  Behavioral and Decision Sciences in Medicine and one of the authors of the happily hopeless study,"but
  there's a dark side of hope.Sometimes,if hope makes people put off getting on with their life,it can get in the
  way of happiness."
  The results showed' that people do not adapt well to situations if they are believed to be short-term. Ubel and
  his co-authors一both from U-M and Carnegie Mellon University一studied patients who had new colostomies:their
  colons were removed and they had to have bowel movements in a pouch that lay outside their body.
  At the time they received their colostomy,some patients were told that the colostomy was reversible一that
  they would undergo a second operation to reconnect their bowels after several months.Others were told that the
  colostomy was permanent and that they would never have normal bowel function again. The second group一the one
  without hope一reported being happier over the next six months than those with reversible colostomies.
  "We think they were happier because they got on with their life. They realized the cards they were
  dealt,and recognized that they had no choice but to play with those cards,"said Ubel,who is also a
  professor in the Department of Internal Medicine.
  "The other group was waiting for their colostomy to be reversed," he added."They contrasted their current
  life with the life they hoped to lead,and didn't make the best of their current situation."
  "Hopeful messages may not be in the best interests of the patient and may interfere with the patient's
  emotional adaptation,"Ubel said."I don't think we should take hope away.But I think we have to be careful
  about building up people's hope so much that they put off living their life."
  What could be the message of the passage?
  A:Giving up hope means giving up happiness.
  B:Letting go of hope is at times a better choice.
  C:Hope is what makes people move on.
  D:Hope frequently gets in the way of happiness.

  Judging from recent surveys,most experts in sleep behavior agree that it is virtually an epidemic of sleepiness in the nation."I can't think of a single study that hasn't found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to,"says Dr. David.Even people who think they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest.
  The beginning of our sleep-deficit crisis can be traced to the invention of the light bulb a century ago.From diary entries and other personal accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries,sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9.5 hours a night. "The best sleep habits once were forced on us,when we had nothing to do in the evening down on the farm,and it was dark." By the 1950s and 1960s,that sleep schedule had been reduced dramatically,to between 7.5 and 8 hours,and most people had to wake to an alarm clock."People cheat on their sleep,and they don't even realize they're doing it,"says Dr. David."They think they're okay because they can get by on 6.5 hours,when they really need 7.5,8 or even more to feel ideally vigorous."
  "Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep,"researchers say,"is the complexity of the day." Whenever pressures from work,family,friends and community mount,many people consider sleep the least expensive item on his program."In our society,you're considered dynamic if you say you only need 5.5 hours' sleep.If you've got to get 8.5 hours,people think you lack drive and ambition."
  To determine the consequences of sleep deficit,researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and performance tests requiring them,for instance,to add columns of numbers or recall a page read to them only minutes earlier."We've found that if you're in sleep deficit,performance suffers,"says Dr. David."Short-term memory is weakened,as are abilities to make decision and to concentrate."
  Many Americans believe that__________.
  A:sleep is the first thing that can be sacrificed when one is busy
  B:they need more sleep to cope with the complexities of everyday life
  C:to sleep is something one can do at any time of the day
  D:enough sleep promotes people's drive and ambition
