19、m. Gates recommended four books in 2018though some were published earlier.Leonardo da Vinci, by Walter Isaacson (2017)The bestselling biographer of Steve Jobs and Albert Einstein researched deeply into da Vincis contributions beyond art, highlighting the breadth of his scientific, technological, and

20、 creative output. “Leonardo nearly understood almost all of what was known on the planet at the time. Thats mostly because of his curiosity about every area of natural science and the human experience,” said Gates.The Best We Could Do: An Illustrated Memoir, by Thi Bui (2017)Gates calls this graphic

21、 novel “really impressive”. Bui is the daughter of Vietnamese refugees who came to America after the fall of Saigon, and becoming a parent inspired her to look into her own parents miserable history. “I was struck by how the experiences Bui illustrates manage to be both universal and specific to the

22、ir circumstances,” said Gates.Lincoln in the Bardo, by George Saunders (2018)Saunders, a long-time short story writer, won high praise for this novel. The book imagines the ghosts that haunt (縈繞) the basement of Willie Lincoln, Abraham Lincolns son, who died at 11 in real life. “Willies death after

28、mory and attention. There have been few studies of overweight and cognitive functioning, possibly because it is generally believed that it is not a primary risk cause for poor cognitive performance. Losing weight, therefore, may help improve these mental functions, according to a new research led by

29、 John Gunstad, assistant professor of psychology at Kent State University.Growing evidence suggests that being fat is linked to cognitive deficits (缺陷). So Gunstad and his team guessed that losing weight might improve mental function. For their study, they measured memory and attention in a group of

30、 150 overweight participants, some of whom had some kind of operation for weight loss and some did not. All of the volunteers completed mental skills tests to assess their abilities of memory and attention at the beginning of the study, and again 12 weeks later. To begin with, about 24% of the patie

31、nts showed damaged learning and 23% showed signs of poor memory when tested. At the end of the study, those who had lost weight after operation improved their scores into the average or above average range for cognitive functions. Scores for the volunteers who didnt lose weight dropped even further.

32、The study helped Gunstad to find out whether losing weight had any effect on mental function. Now that hes seen the positive effect that weight loss can have on memory and attention, he says he will next study those who choose to lose weight by the traditional wayeating healthier and getting more ac

33、tive. He expects that losing weight in this way will have a similarly positive effect on the brain. “If we can improve the condition with operations, then we can probably produce the same change with behavioral weight loss as well,” he says.1、There is less research on overweight and cognitive functi

For some time, sensible people have been arguing that governments need to focus less

38、 on economic growth and more on the wellbeing（幸福）of citizens. Be careful what you wish for.In response to this demand, from 2011 David Cameron instructed the Office for National Statistics to gather data on peoples self-reported happiness and life satisfaction. Little practical good has come from th

39、is so far, but a new report by George Bangham for the Resolution Foundation is one of the best attempts to make useful sense of the data. He concludes: “The best prospects for policymakers targeting future increases in national wellbeing lie in raising job quality, raising incomes, particularly at t

40、he lower end, and policies to improve security in the housing market.”The age correlation（相關(guān)）turns out to be certainly linked to politics, despite the fact that no political party can make a difference to your date of birth. The happiness of pensioners is not just a function of their age, but of pol

41、icy. On average, 70-year-old boomers today are the most affluent retirees in history, often owning their own homes and in receipt of generous pensions. People of 70 are not going to be as content in 30 or 40 years time if they are unable to retire, dont own their homes and have small incomes.However

42、, there is one respect in which teens and recent retirees are remarkably similar. Compared to other age groups, they tend to inhabit a sweet spot of having high degrees of freedom. The typical 16-year-old has new freedoms without ever having had any serious responsibilities. The typical 70-year-old,

43、 having experienced a lifetime of work and family duties, has a very different kind of freedom, one born from relief.Besides，it should not surprise us to find that people tend to be happier when they have fewer worries. But this, too, has important political implications. If the government is really

44、 interested in raising overall national happiness, it has to make sure as many citizens as possible feel secure in their health, their housing and their incomes. Different states records in achieving this is one important reason why Nordic countries repeatedly score highly in international life sati

45、sfaction surveys and North America underperforms relative to its GDP.Whichever way you look at it, there is no escaping the conclusion that increasing wellbeing across society requires joined-up, long-term policy efforts. This is exactly what the Resolution Foundation recommends.1、What can be convey

So, in theory, measles could be destroyed.Yet the number of measles cases is on the rise.The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that, in the first three months of 2019, the number of cases

49、 is three times higher than it was last year. Africa alone has had a 700 percent increase compared to last year.The Democratic Republic of Congo reported 67,000 measles cases and 901 measles-related deaths in 2018. This year, WHO officials have noted more than 40,000 suspected measles cases in the c

50、ountry. That number includes 284 measles-related deaths in the first weeks of 2019. Between September 2018 and February 2019, Madagascar reported over 67,000 measles cases, including 828 deaths.Dr. Fauci, who directs the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease in the USA, said thatone i

51、n 10 children who get infected with measles will get an ear infection that could cause deafness. One in 20 would get pneumonia. One in a thousand would get brain swelling, and one to three per thousand would die. To say that measles is a slight disease is completely incorrect.Walter Orenstein is wit

In those countries children are already at greater risk. They may be malnourished(營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良的). They may have damaged immune

53、systems. They may be underweight and may have no access to health care so measles is a big killer, he said.You have a 90 percent chance of getting measles if you have not been vaccinated and you come in contact with someone who has it. Dr. Rebecca Martin is the Director of the Center for Global Heal

54、th at theU.S. Centers for Disease Control. She is working to remove measles from Africa completely. It is very infectious. It will find nearly everybody who is not protected against measles, Martin said.Health experts advise patients to get two treatments of the measles vaccine. U.S. health official

55、s say educating parents about both the disease and the vaccine is an important step in stopping the spread. Equally important is making vaccination a top goal of health systems worldwide.1、The writer shows the sharp increase in measles cases by .Agiving examplesBlisting figuresCanalyzing causesDfoll
