In the late 1800s, most of the people from a small, poor village in Italy called Roseto Valfortore moved to a new
town in the USA. This town was started in 1887 in Pennsylvania (宾夕法尼亚州) by a man called Nicola Rosato.
He named the town Roscto after his own village. The Italian immigrants who came to live there were hoping to find
a b___67___ life.
In the 1960s, a doctor named Stewart Wolf discovered something very s___68___ in Roseto. After doing a study
on everyone who lived there, he found that they were generally much healthier than the rest of the country. The
number of people in the town dying from heart disease was half the national average. In fact, almost no one younger
than 55 years of age died of a heart attack. And the death rate (率) from the c___69___ was 35% lower than the
national average. Many people simply died of old age.
So, what was the Rosetans’s___70___? Wolf’s findings showed that it certainly wasn’t their diet. They ate a lot
of fatty food and many were very overweight. In addition, they worked long hours in jobs that were very hard on
their bodies. There was no clear medical explanation for w___71___ they were so healthy. The town itself was a
closely connected community of families. Most children, parents, and grandparents lived under one roof, and everyone
got together in church, festivals, and social activities. Thus, researchers c___72___ that the Rosetans’ excellent health

so they can give you a helping hand. Finally, picture y____57____ achieving your goal. Picturing success in the

Ask Dr. Drew
I’m here to help you keep fit and well.
◆ Too busy to exercise!
My wife says I’m putting on weight and I should do more exercise (She’s super fit—she’s
just done the Marathon!), but I just don’t have time because I have a very stressful job. And I
have to t____67____ a lot. For example, I once spent 80 hours in a week flying between
different cities. How can I find time to have a fitness routine? What should I do?
—James
◆ I get bored doing exercise!
I do exercise—I understand how important it is, but I get so bored. I tried s____68____,
but just going up and down a pool is so boring! I tried going to the gym but walking on the spot
is so depressing! I bought an exercise DVD, but I used it only a few times. What should I do?
—Cherry
◆ I hurt my ankle so b____69____!
I’m a keen keep-fitter, but this morning when I was out running I fell and hurt my ankle. I
think it doesn’t matter, but it’s quite a serious one. What kind of exercise I should do while I’m
injured? I can’t even walk very well at the moment.
—Jason
Advice from Dr. Drew
◆ Dear James,
You should make exercise as part of your daily life—you shouldn’t sit at your desk all day.
Perhaps there is a gym n____70____ where you work—keep some sports clothes at work and
go there for just 15 minutes during your lunch break when you can. You don’t have to exercise
for a1____71____ period. Ten minutes every now and then is enough.
◆ Dear Cherry,
Oh dear! I think you should try a different kind of sports. I don’t think you should exercise
a____72____. It can help if you do it with other people—what about a sport, such as tennis, or
perhaps dancing? There are all kinds of dance classes—you’re sure to find one you like.
◆ Dear Jason,
You must see a doctor! You must find out how serious the injury is. If not, you should do
some g____73____ exercise at first. Perhaps some exercise in water or yoga (瑜伽) classes are
good choices. Later, you can try strong exercise with the doctor’s guide.

Dear past humans,
I am writing to you from the future, a time beyond your imagination. I want to share with you what our world
has become and how it differs from the one you live in.
Firstly, let me tell you that we have made incredible (难以置信的) progress in many a____51____. Medicine
has advanced to the point where we have found ways to deal with almost every disease that once caused pains or
troubles. We have learned to use clean, renewable energy sources and have r____52____ our impact (影响) on the
environment greatly. We have also made big progress in AI (artificial intelligence) (人工智能) and space exploration,
allowing us to unlock the mysteries of the universe.
However, despite all these things, our world still faces many c____53____. The gap between rich and poor has
grown wider and many people still struggle to make ends meet. Climate change has caused many natural disasters
and forced many people to leave their homes. And while our efforts on artificial intelligence are proved to be a big
step f____54____, we must be careful to make sure that it does not cause harm to humanity.
But perhaps the most important thing I want to share with you is that we have realized the importance of being
r____55____. We have come to understand that our actions and decisions have an impact on others and on the planet
we call home. We are working together to build a more reasonable fair world where everyone has chances to get the
resources they need. I hope that you can take these l____56____to heart and fight for yourselves and the future. The
choices you make today will have an impact on generations to come. Let us work together to build a b____57____
tomorrow.
Yours sincerely,
A future human

First, it is bad for your eyes. A researcher called Sarah Hinkley says the problem comes from the blue light that

dry eyes. So it is a good idea to take a b____53____ every 15 minutes when you are working at a computer or using a

affect how children’s brains grow. If children use screens for more than one hour a day, they might have lower

between the ages of 13 and 64 use electronics before bed, especially the young people under 20. Doctors say that the
light from those electronics at night may make you e____56____ before you go to bed. Then it’s hard for you to get
