• 2．Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have.It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy.There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape：eat right food，get enough sleep，and exercise regularly.
     Proper nutrition（营养）is important for good health.Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of "fuel".Donˈt eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat.Eat plenty of foods high in protein（蛋白质），like meat，fish，eggs and nuts.Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals.However，don't overeat.It is not helpful to be overweight.
     Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important.If you don't get enough sleep，you feel tired and easily get angry.You have no energy.Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality （个性）.Be sure to allow yourself to have seven to nine hours of sleep each night.If you do，your body will feel strong and refreshed，and your mind will be sharp.
     Finally，get plenty of exercise.Exercise makes the body strong and prevents you from putting on weight.It also improves your heart and lungs.If you follow a regular exercise program，you will probably increase your lifespan（寿命）.Any kind of exercise is good.Most sports are very good for keeping the body in good shape：basketball，swimming，bicycling，running and so on，are good examples.Sports are not only good for your body，but they are enjoyable and interesting，too.
     If everybody were to eat the right foods，get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly，the world would be a happier and healthier place.We would all live to be much older and wiser.

• 3．None of our early ancestors could digest milk as adults because their bodies never had to—milk drinking simply wasn't an option.As people began to extract milk from animals，though，some people developed the ability to keep drinking it throughout their lives.
     Scientists now know of a milk-related mutation（变异） in our genes—the chemical instructions for life that we carry in almost every cell in our bodies.People who have a mutated form of one particular gene can drink milk just fine.People without the mutation tend to get sick from milk.
     To figure out where，and possibly why，milk drinking started，some scientists have been looking at who has the milk-digesting mutation today.Patterns are striking.
     Most adults in Northern and Central Europe are able to digest milk—and they do.Cheese and butter and other dairy products are popular in countries such as Sweden，Denmark，Germany and England.Because European settlers dominated North America，most people here can handle milk just fine，as well.That may explain why ice cream is such a popular dessert in the United States.
     In much of Africa，Asia and South America，on the other hand，people tend to avoid dairy products because they lead to diarrhea（腹泻）and other stomach problems.That's why you won't typically find cheese on the menu at a Chinese，Japanese or Ethiopian restaurant.Native Americans are also unable to digest milk.
     Because of these genetic patterns，scientists have long thought that milk drinking started in Northern Europe，where dairy is an institution and the milk-digesting mutation is everywhere.
     A recent study painted a different picture.With a computer model，Thomas and his colleagues looked at the spread of the milk-drinking mutation，farming and other related factors.Working backward，the scientists concluded that the first milk-drinkers lived in Central Europe around what's now Hungary about 7，500 years ago.The practice didn't start farther north，as scientists had thought before.
  
  （1）Which of the following is the proper order of events according to the passage？

  
  a．Their children were able to digest milk as adults.
  b．They got sick from milk.
  c．Some people got a mutation in their genes.
  d．Some people tried drinking milk from animals.
  e．Some people started to drink milk from animals on a regular basis.
  A．c→d→b→e→a
  B．d→e→b→c→a
  C．d→b→e→c→a
  D．e→d→b→c→a
  （2）Most people in the USA can digest milk because

  .
  A．they have strong stomachs
  B．their ancestors were Europeans
  C．that's where milk drinking started
  D．farmers raise a lot of cows there
  （3）Which of the following is the author most likely to agree with？

  
  A．Milk drinking first started in Northern Europe.
  B．Milk drinking first started in Central Europe.
  C．Native Americans were able to digest milk.
  D．Dairy products are very popular in Japan.
  （4）The main focus of the scientists' research was

  .
  A．mutation of human genes
  B．development of the human stomach
  C．why milk drinking started
  D．where milk drinking first started
