Once a month, I volunteer at a meal center to help serve food to people who are in need. Despite the many other things that I need to do, I really look forward to meeting and serving these people, even if only briefly. Although my motivation begins with wanting to help others and be grateful for what I have been given, it is joy that helps bring me back when I am very busy. I first noticed this some time ago: at the end of our shift, after the kitchen and dining room have been cleaned up, I would experience a lightness of being.
A few years ago, as I was researching how kindness affected health, I came to learn that volunteerism was associated with a markedly lower risk of dying. One recent and large European study found that self-reported health scores were apparently better in volunteers than non-volunteers. Depending on the study, the decrease in death rates ranged between 20 to 60 percent or so.
How could volunteering decrease the risk of death? There are several factors at play. The first, and most primary, is decreased symptoms of stress and uplifted mood. Many studies have provided evidence that volunteering is good for depression, well-being, and social networking, among other effects. Secondly, people who volunteer regularly also make more effort to take care of themselves. They manage to pay visits to their doctor for preventive health care. Finally, people who volunteer may be more physically active. Volunteers have an obvious increase in walking each day compared to those who did not volunteer.
To try to tie this together, volunteering likely exerts its positive health effects by connecting people to others and to an activity that they find meaningful. Achieving connection, purpose, and meaning is critical to reducing stresses of life — particularly loneliness. Since stress is a major cause of disease, especially heart disease, the ability to satisfy the need for connection, purpose, and meaning can bring about beneficial changes for people. And when there is purpose and we are connected to others, we take care of ourselves.
With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9:00 am Monday morning lecture, it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes; it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pajama's(睡衣). Obviously, students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.
All human beings possess a body clock. Along with other alerting systems, this governs the sleep/wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour. Typically, the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents, which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings. This typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the "night owl" schedule of sleep.
This is opposed to the "early bird" schedule, and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight. Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings. Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night. Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as "night owls" and only 10 percent can be classified as "early birds" —— the other 70 percent are in the middle. Although this is clearly not true for all students, for the ones who are true night owls, this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.
When you think of a typical American, who do you picture? A pretty blond white American like Taylor Swift? Or a handsome black American like basketball star Kobe Bryant? In fact, there was a time when the average American looked like neither of these people.
Back in the year 1500, the average American was a brown-skinned hunter-gatherer who probably rode a horse and wore clothing made from animal skins. Today, these people-who usually identify themselves based on their individual tribes such as Iriquois, Apache and Navajo-are broadly referred to as "Native Americans", "American Indians" or simply "Indians".
There's a chance that you've never even heard of American Indians. That's because there aren't very many left. When the European settlement of North America began, there were fierce conflicts between the settlers from overseas and these native peoples. After the British government and military were expelled (驱逐) in the Revolutionary War, conflicts with natives continued as the states were created that would later make up the US. In these conflicts, millions of natives were killed.
In 1830, president Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act. This act required all Indians to migrate to the west of the Mississippi River to allow for the expansion of the US. American Indians were treated as a military "enemy" until 1924, when the few Indians still alive at that point were granted (准予)US citizenship. That was the first time that the US government formally recognized the rights of Indians.
While the story of the American Indians has been a sad one, these peoples' legacies (遗产) are still felt every day in the US. Many US geographical names come from Indian languages, such as Ohio, Topeka, Kansas, and the Potomac River. At the same time, there are numerous successful academics and other important US leaders who are descended (是……的后裔) from Indians. And nowadays, more and more history classes in US public schools are educating students about how Indians suffered during the settlement of the US.
Although what happened cannot be undone, we can learn at least one thing from the sad history of the Indians: If we want a better future, we must look carefully and honestly at the past.
Since I've been living abroad, many different people have asked me to name typical British dishes. I have, however, struggled to think of an answer. Yes, we do have our own national dishes.
Fish and chips, as you could guess, is made up of battered fish and chips. It is often accompanied by mushy peas (豌豆糊), which consists of peas mashed up to form a thick paste. The majority of British people really do love this dish but it is not something that we would eat, say, on a weekly basis. British people associate this dish with the seaside and it's something that will usually be eaten on a day trip there.
This is made up of roast meat, usually chicken or beef, accompanied by roast vegetables and a meat sauce. It is usually eaten on a Sunday, perhaps for a special family dinner.
Although we do have our traditional dishes, we do not eat these on a daily basis. On a daily basis many British people will eat rice or pasta dished. You can see this by looking at the range of international foods in the supermarket or at the variety of different restaurants you can find on our high streets.
However, perhaps unlike other countries, we tend to prefer to cook recipes influenced by other cuisine.
A. We eat them as the seasons change.
B. But how much do we actually eat them?
C. In conclusion, we do have our national dishes.
D. Another favourite British dish is the roast dinner.
E. Our diet has been greatly influenced by other countries.
F. It's also not usually something that you would cook at home.
G. You'll be served a traditional dish if you get invited for dinner at a British family's home.
In July 1984, the famous author and runner Jim Fixx died of a heart attack while running. One 1 from his death: just because you run does not mean you are safe from heart problems. Thirty-five years later, Boston Marathon race director Dave McGillivray is 2 that message. "Being fit and being healthy aren't the same things," he says. McGillivray, a 3 runner, should know it. Six months ago, he had heart surgery after suffering chest pain and shortness of 4 while running. McGillivray's family had a long history of heart problems. "I honestly thought that 5 exercise, cholesterol-lowering (降固醇的) medicine, good sleep and the right diet, I'd be fine," he says. "But you can't run away from your 6."
Aerobic exercise (有氧运动) such as running, walking, 7 and swimming is known to reduce the risk of many health problems. But new research is questioning the value of "8exercise". In a study 9 in December, researchers in Spain found information suggesting that full marathons, 10 the famous Boston marathon, might injure the heart. Dr. Kevin Harris is a cardiologist (心脏病专家). He notes that running is a good activity, 11 the act of running "doesn't make you invincible (不可战胜的)". Harris adds that people who have a family history of heart problems should talk with their health care providers 12 running a marathon. " 13," he added, "men who are older than 40 and those people who have symptoms (症状) they're concerned about".
McGillivray says his doctor allowed him to race in the upcoming Boston Marathon. He has 14 in it every year for 47 years. "My new mission," he says, "is to create 15. If you feel something, do something...You might not get a second chance."
JIUQUAN, China, Oct.16 (Reuters)—-China on Saturday launched a rocket (carry) three astronauts — two men and one woman—to the core module of a future space station they will live and work of six months, the longest orbit for Chinese astronauts.
China began constructing the space station in April with the launch of Tianhe—-the first and (large) of the station's three modules. Slightly bigger than a city bus, Tianhe will be the living quarters of the (complete) space station.
Shenzhou-13 is the second of four crewed missions needed to complete the space station by the end of 2022. During the first crewed mission concluded in September, three other astronauts stayed on Tianhe for 90 days.
"The most challenging task will be the long-term stay in orbit for six months,"Zhai Zhigang, 55, the mission commander, born to a rural family with six children, told a news conference on Thursday. "It asks for (exact) higher demands (on us), physically and psychologically."
He (accompany) by Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu, both 41. Wang, also born to a rural family, is known colleagues for her tenacity(坚韧). The former air force pilot first travelled to space in 2013, to Tiangong-1, a prototype lab. She is China's second female astronaut in space, following Liu Yang in 2012. Shenzhou-13 is the first space mission for the third astronaut, Ye.
the crew returns to Earth in April, China plans to deploy six more missions, including deliveries of the second and third space station modules and two final crewed missions.
