The little girl was taken to share the adventure and the danger of life at sea by his father, Captain Jernegan, who was unwilling to be separated from his family when he was going to hunt the mightiest animal on earth. Laura was a keen observer and writer, whose diary offers a look into her unusual childhood. Laura was fascinated by her father's job. When the ship's lookout spotted a whale, "I hope we shall get him," she wrote. She watched as the men rushed to their whaleboats and chased the whale to within harpooning (鱼叉) distance. Once, they harpooned a whale so huge that his head was "as big as four whole rooms and his body as long as one ship," Laura wrote. Hunting whales was only one part of a whaleman's job. As soon as a whale was caught, the crew began the hard and dirty work of processing it. The whale body smelled "dreadfully," noted Laura. The processing of the whale was finally finished when the cooled oil was spooned into barrels. One huge whale produced enough oil to fill seventy-five barrels, she noted in disbelief. When the Jernegans returned home, the oil would be sold for the best price possible. Whale oil was important during the nineteenth century when it was used to light lamps and to make candles. Whaling was both exciting and exhausting. Yet it also had us slow moments. Weeks could go by without so much as a glimpse of a whale. Then Laura filled her days with school lessons and sewing. When Laura was grown, she never went whaling again. By then, petrol had already replaced whale oil. This era. called the golden age of whaling, was over. So was the era of entire families going to sea. Yet Laura’s diary has helped to ensure that this chapter in America’s seafaring history won’t be forgotten. 21. Why did Laura set sail with her father? A. She was a keen observer and writer. B. She was fascinated by his father's job. C. His father would hunt the mightiest animal. D. Her lather wanted the family to stay together. 22. What do we know from the underlined sentence in paragraph 4? A. Laura was tired of school lessons. B. It took weeks to hunt a huge whale. C. No whales could be spotted for weeks. D. The processing of the whale was slow. 23. Which of the following words best describes Laura's diary? A. Significant. B. Dreadful. C. Conventional. D. Practical. B Since the 1970s, body mass index (BMI) has been widely used as vital data to monitor our health condition. BMI is calculated from your height and weight, used as an estimate of body fat and a good evaluation of your risk for diseases that can occur with more body fat. The higher your BMI, the higher your risk for certain diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and breathing problems. Even a small weight loss, between 5 and 10 percent of your current weight, will help lower your risk of developing diseases associated with obesity. However, many researchers argue that we’ve been overlooking the limitations of BMI, since BMI alone isn’t always a good indicator of cardiovascular (心血管的) risk. For example, an athletic, muscular person could have a high BMI but a healthy heart. Conversely, many people lose muscle with age, which could lower their BMI despite high body fat levels. A group of worldwide experts released a statement in early 2020 suggesting that measuring patient’ waists also helps screen for possible health risks that come with overweight and obesity. If most of your fat is around your waist rather than at your hips, you're at a higher risk for heart disease and type 2 diabetes. This risk goes up with a waist size that is greater than 35 inches for women or greater than 40 inches for men. To correctly measure your waist, stand and place a tape measure around your middle, just above your hipbones. Measure your waist just after you breathe out. So although BMI can he useful, adding waist circumference (腰围) to the picture clarifies your risk profile. Fortunately, waist size tends to go down even if your weight doesn’t. 24. What is the first paragraph mainly about? A. Weight loss. B. Body mass index. C. Health problems. D. Risks for diseases. 25. What can be learned from the passage? A. Waist size tends to go down easily. B. A lower BMI indicates healthy heart. D. BMI has limitations in health assessment 26. What is likely to be talked about next? A. Advice on a healthy diet. B. Ways to measure waist. C. Tips for reducing waistline. D. Methods of losing weight. C Some people can't wait for the lovely colons, cooler weather, and cozy sweaters of autumn. In fact, fall is Americans’ favorite time, but for a minority of others. the transition from summer creates worry, fear and worse. According to Carrie Landin, a psychologist from the University of Colorado Health Integrative Medicine Center, a significant number of people actually experience autumn anxiety. For some people, stress is triggered (触发) by environmental factors: Decreases in daylight cause chemical changes in the brain. "Less daylight leads to lower levels of chemicals like serotonin and dopamine that control our emotions,” says Kimberly Asner-self, associate professor at Touro Colleges’ School of Health Sciences. “As these chemicals drop, the body responds by increasing levels of cortisol, the hormone released in situations where we face threat.” The result can be an increase
