Our body has not been able to deal with (处理,对付)these changes in life style and this has led to new kinds of s
21、icknesses. These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times, so they are called “ diseases of civilization”.

22、one Age enjoyed very little alcohol (酒精) or tobacco (烟草), probably none.

23、 less fat than domestic or tame ones (家畜). They also ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits. They didnt have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. But today, we eat a large amount of these. We eat six times more salt than our remote ancestors (祖先). We eat
24、more sugar.

29、g, the brightest star in the firmament(天空)of science, whose insights shaped modern cosmology(宇宙论)and inspired global audiences in the millions, has died aged 76.

30、Lucy, Robert and Tim said in a statement: “We are deeply saddened that our beloved father passed away today.” “He was a great scientist and an extraordinary man whose work and legacy will live on for many years to come. His courage and persistence with his brilliance and humor inspired people across
31、 the world.”When Hawking was diagnosed with motor neuronal (神经元的)disease in 1963 at the age of 21, doctors expected him to live for only two more years. But Hawking had a form of the disease that progressed more slowly than usual. He survived for more than half a century and long enough for his disa
32、bility to define him. His popularity would surely have been diminished without it. Those who live in the shadow of death are often those who live most.For Hawking, the early diagnosis of his terminal disease, and witnessing the death from leukaemia of a boy who he knew in hospital, ignited(点燃)a fres

38、eling well. The only thing you want to eat is a big bowl of chicken soup, like your mom used to make when you were sick as a child. Food cravings are a strong desire for a specific type of food.

39、r is a fairly simple connection between the stomach and the brain.

40、 hunger and sleep. The brain then produces a chemical to start the appetite and you eat. Hunger is a function of survival.A craving is more complex. It activates (使活跃) brain areas related to emotion, memory and reward. These are the same areas of the brain activated during drug-craving studies. So,
41、some scientists call food cravings “mind 8hunger.” People often crave foods that are high in fat and sugar. Foods that are high in fat or high in sugar produce chemicals in the brain.
