Most Adults in U．S．Have Low Risk of Heart Disease（难度C级）

　　More than 80 percent of US adults have a less than l O-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 participated in the 1nbjrd National Health and Nutrition Exanimation Survey from 1988 to 1994．   来源：http://Hxen.com
　　Overall，82 percent of adults had a risk of less than 10 percent, 15 percent had a risk that fell between 1 0 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 10一year risk of heart disease，a large proportion have a high or immediate risk，Dr．Daniel S．Berman，from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles，and Dr．Nathan D．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．

Soot (煤烟) and Snow：a Hot Combination（难度B/C级，偏向B级）

　　New research from NASA scientists suggests emissions of black soot alter the way sunlight reflects off snow．According to a computer simulation，black soot may be responsible for 25 percent of observed global warming over the past century．
　　Soot in the higher latitudes of the Earth，where ice is more common，absorbs more of the sun’s energy and warmth than an icy,white background．Dark-colored black carbon，or soot，absorbs sunlight, while lighter colored ice reflects sunlight．
　　Soot in areas with snow and ice may play an important role in climate change．Also，if snow and ice covered areas begin melting，the warming effect increases，as the soot becomes more concentrated on the snow surface．”This provides a positive feedback．as glaciers and ice sheets melt，they tend to get even dirtier,”said Dr．James Hansen，a researcher at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies．New York．
　　Hansen found soot’s effect on snow albedo (solar energy reflected back to space)，which may be contributing to trends toward early springs in the Northern Hemisphere，such as thinning Arctic sea ice，melting glaciers and permafrost．Soot also is believed to play a role in changes in the atmosphere above the oceans and land．
　　“Black carbon reduces the amount of energy reflected by snow back into space，thus heating the snow surface more than if there were no black carbon‘，”Hansen said．Soot’s increased absorption of solar energy is especially effective in warming the world’s climate．
　　“This forcing is unusually effective，causing twice as much global warming as a carbon．dioxide forcing of the same magnitude．”Hansen noted．
　　Hansen cautioned，although the role of soot in altering global climate is substantial，it does not alter the fact that greenhouse gases are the primary cause of climate warming during the past century．Such gases are expected to be the largest climate forcing for the rest of this century．
　　The researchers found that observed warming in the Northern Hemisphere was large in the winter and spring at middle and high latitudes．These observations were consistent with the researchers’climate model simulations．which showed some of the 1argest warming effects occurred when there were heavy snow cover and sufficient sunlight．
 

 
6．Hansen cautioned that greenhouse gases__.
7．  Black soot covered snow and ice__.
8．  A soot forcing is unusually effective，which__.
A produces much more global warming than a carbon-dioxide forcing of the same magnitude
B  contributed to 25 percent of observed global warming
C  Can produce greenhouse gases
D  absorb more of sun’s energy and warmth than white background
E  still surpass soot in warming the world’S climate during the last century来源：http://Hxen.com
F  Can be seen mostly in the Northern Hemisphere

Inspecting a Used Car（难度B/C级）

　　The scariest part of buying a used car is not being completely sure of what condition it’s in．A car that’s been in a major accident is always a bigger risk，but sellers often try to hide this information．Andrew Bleakley, evaluator-inspector，runs a mobile vehicle inspection service in Montreal．For about$80 he will perform a full，unbiased inspection on a used vehicle．In his 10 years as a professional inspector, Bleakley has seen a lot．He warns．“Watch out for dealer demonstration vehicles which are used．not new．They may have been in a collision．”He adds that it is not uncommon in Ontario and Quebec especially for unscrupulous sellers to roll back the odometer or to even disengage it．Bleakiey has special tools to check for this．
　　Bleakley always recommends hiring all independent technician to inspect the condition of a used car before you buy it．The problem is finding someone qualified to do the inspection．Which he says generally doesn’t mean just any mechanic．A thorough mechanical inspection includes checking the compression，all major systems，including the engine，electrical and charging systems，transmission and drive line，fluids，brakes，suspension，and steering．Essential，too, is all inspection of the car’s body and finally a road test．There are，however, a few things everyone can do before buying a used Car：
