Fortunately, most of us in modern industrialized societies can take relatively good health for g
12、ranted most of the time. In fact, we tend to fully realize the importance of good health only when we or those close to us become seriously ill. At such times we keenly appreciate the ancient truth that health is our most precious asset, one for which we might readily give up such rewards as power,
13、wealth, or fame (荣誉 ). Because ill health is a universal problem, affecting both the individual and society, the human response to sickness is always socially organized. No society leaves the responsibility for maintaining health and treating ill health entirely to the individual. Each society devel
14、ops its own concepts of health and sickness and authorizes certain people to decide who is sick and how the sick should be treated. Around this focus there arises, over time, a number of standards, values, groups, statuses, and roles: in other words, an institution (体系 ,机构 ). To the sociologist (社会学
15、家 ) , then, medicine is the institution concerned with the maintenance of health and treatment of disease. In the simplest pre-industrial societies, medicine is usually an aspect of religion. The social arrangements for dealing with sickness are very elementary, often involving only two roles: the s
16、ick and the healer (治疗者 ). The latter is typically also the priest (牧师 ), who relies primarily on religious ceremonies, both to identify and to treat disease; for example, bones may be thrown to establish a cause, songs may be used to bring about a cure. In modern industrialized societies, on the ot
17、her hand, the institution has become highly complicated and specialized, including dozens of roles such as those of brain surgeon, druggist, hospital administrator, linked with various organizations such as nursing homes, insurance companies, and medical schools.

24、t by those depressing insurance-company tables listing“ ideal“or“healthy“body weights based on low mortality rates. But such tables represent only the weights of people who applied for life insurance and lived the longest. They do not accurately measure the effects of excess body fat on sickness or
25、longevity for the entire population. Nor do they tell you your healthiest weight. Kate: To reduce, you must combine the three key elements of long-term weight control. First, follow a nutritionally balanced, healthful eating plan. Increase the fiber in your diet and cut your fat intake to 25 to 30 g
26、rams per day. If youve selective about the food you choose, you can eat three meals a day and up to three low-fat snacks. One explanation for this quick impact is that you are what you eat. Its not just the pounds of excess body fat that cause all the trouble. Its the high-fat calories that you cons

28、o the changes it has undergone in diet, exercise and life-style. Dont get caught in the trap of all-or-nothing thinking. An occasional lapse is normal. We recommend what we call the “R-K-0“system.

30、se: Of the 34 million American adults who are classified as overweight, about two million should lose 100 or more pounds. These people obviously need to lose more than ten percent of their body weight; they will require medical supervision, rapid weight loss and the use of special portion-controlled
31、 foods. In most cases, however, people who are overweight can start an easy-does-it plan. Then, after theyve maintained their new, slimmer bodies for six months, they can consider a second cycle. How do you decide whether youve lost enough weight? Feeling good is the first sign. Health-risk factors
32、are an even better indicator. Before you go on an easy-does-it weight-loss program, have your doctor measure your cholesterol, body fat and blood pressure. Then check with your physician at the beginning of the six-month maintenance stage. After that, you can move forward on your own. Jone: The easy

Long ago I had emigrated to America. How I was visiting places in which I had taken little interest before
43、 the birthplace for example. I had passed it perhaps a hundred times without a thought of going in. Now it would cost me just under two pounds, about $3. But even stranger experience was buying a ticket to the school two members of my family had attended. Shakespeare had gone there though 350 years
44、before. It was a good school, but I was fortunate in being sent to a better one. “Better than Shakespeares?“asked an American to whom I had confided. “I dont see how that could be possible, “he had muttered before turning away.
