Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension ( 40

Section A
Questions 26 to 35 are based on the
following passage.
Millions die
early from air pollution each year. Air pollution
costs the global economy
more than $$5
trillion annually in welfare costs, with the most
serious
26F
occurring in the
developing
world. The figures include a number of costs
27B with air pollution.
Lost income
alone amounts to $$225
billion a year.
The
report
includes
both
indoor
and
outdoor
air
pollution.
Indoor
pollution,
which
includes 28M
like home heating and cooking, has
remained
29D
over the past several
decades despite advances in the area.
Levels of outdoor pollution have grown rapidly
along
with rapid growth in industry and
transportation.
Director of
Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation Chris
Murray

it as an
“urgent call to action.” “One of the
risk factors for premature deaths is the air we
breathe,
over which individuals have
little
31E
,” he
said.
The effects of
air pollution are worst in the developing world,
where in some places lost-

nearly 1% of GDP. Around 9
in 10 people in low-and middle-income
countries
live
in
places
where
they

experience
dangerous
levels
of
outdoor
air
pollution.
But
the
problem
is
not
limited
34I
to
the
developing
world.
Thousands
die
prematurely in the U.S.
as a result of related illnesses. In many European
countries, where

have become more common in recent
years, that number reaches tens

Food-as-Medicine
Movement Is Witnessing Progress
“药食并举”运动正在取得进展
[A]
Several times
a month, you can find a doctor in the aisles of
Ralph’s market in Huntington
Beach,
California, wearing a white coat and helping
people learn about food. On one recent
day, this doctor was Daniel Nadeau,
wandering the cereal aisle with Allison Scott,
giving her
some idea on how to feed
kids who persistently avoid anything that is
healthy. “Have you
thought
about
trying
fresh
juices
in
the
morning?”
he
asks
her.
“The
frozen
oranges
and
apples are a little
cheaper, and fruits are really good for the brain.
Juices are quick and easy
to
prepare,
you can take the
frozen
fruit
out
the night
before
and
have it ready
the
next
morning.”
[A]
每个月有几次,
你可以在加利福尼亚州亨廷顿海滩的拉尔夫市场的过道里
找到一位医生,
他穿着白大褂,帮助人们了解食物。最近的一天,这位医生是丹尼尔·纳
多,他和艾莉森·斯
科特在谷类食品过道上漫步,
给她一些关于
如何喂养那些坚持避免吃任何健康食品的孩子的
想法。
“你想过
早上尝尝新鲜果汁吗?”他问她。
“冰冻的橙子和苹果便宜一点,
水果真的对大
脑有好处。
果汁准备起来又快又容易,
你可以在前一天晚上把冷冻的水果拿出来,
第二天早
上就可以准备好了。“
[B]
Scott is delighted to get food advice
from a physician who is program director of the
nearby Mary and Dick Allen Diabetes
Center, part of the St. Joseph Hoag Health
alliance. The
center’s ‘Shop with Your
Doc’ program sends doctors to the grocery store to
meet with any
patients who sign up for
the service, plus any other shoppers who happen to
be around with
questions.

斯科特很高兴能从一位医生那里得到饮食建议,他是附近的玛丽和迪克·艾伦糖尿病中
心
的项目主任,
该中心是圣约瑟夫·霍格健康联盟的一部分。<
/p>
该中心的“带着你的医生购物”
(Shop
With Your Doc)
项目会派医生去杂货店会见任何
签约使用这项服务的患者,以及任何其他碰
巧有问题的购物者。
[C]
Nadeau notices the pre-
made macaroni (
通心粉
)
and-
cheese boxes in Scott’s shopping
cart and suggests she switch to whole
grain macaroni and real cheese.
“So I’d
have to make
it
?”she asks,
her enthusiasm fading at the thought of how long
that might take, just to have
her kids
reject it. “I’m not sure they’d eat it. They just
won’t eat it.”
[C]
纳多注意到斯科特购物车里预先做好的通心粉
(
通心粉
)
和奶酪盒子,
建议她换成全谷物通
心粉和真正的奶酪。“这么说我得赶过去了?”她问道,一想到这可能需要多长时间,她的热

情就消退了,只是为了让她的孩子拒绝它。“我不确定他们会不会吃。他们就是不吃。“

[D]
Nadeau says
sugar and processed foods are big contributors to
the rising diabetes rates
among
children. “In America, over 50 percent of our food
is processed food,”
Nadeau tells
her. “And only
5 percent of
our food is plant-
based food. I think
we should try to reverse that.”
Scott
agrees to try more fruit juices for the kids and
to make real macaroni and cheese. Score
one point for the doctor, zero for
diabetes.
[D]
纳多说,糖和加工食品是儿童糖尿
病发病率上升的主要原因。“在美国,超过
50%
的食物
是加工食品,
”纳多告诉她。
“而且我们只有
5%
的食物是植物性食物。
我认为我们
应该努力扭
转这一局面。
“。
斯科特同
意为孩子们尝试更多的果汁,
并做真正的通心粉和奶酪。
医生得
1
分,糖尿病得
0
分。
[E]
Nadeau
is part of a small revolution developing across
California. The food-as-medicine
movement has been around for decades,
but it’s making progre
ss as physicians
and medical
institutions make food a formal part of
treatment, rather than relying solely on
medications
(
药物). By
prescribing nutritional changes or launching
programs such as ‘Shop with your Doc’,
they
are
trying
to
prevent,
limit
or
even
reverse
disease
by
changing
what
patients
eat.
“There’s no question people can take
things a long way toward reversing diabetes,
reversing
high blood pressure, even
preventing cancer by food choices,” Nadeau
says.
[e]
纳多是在整个加州
发展的一场小规模革命的一部分。食品即药品的运动已经存在了几十
年,但随着医生和医
疗机构将食品作为正式治疗的一部分,而不是仅仅依靠药物
(
药
物
)
,它
正在取得进展。通过规定营养
变化或发起诸如“带着你的医生购物”这样的计划,他们试图通
过改变患者的饮食来预防
、限制甚至逆转疾病。纳多说:“毫无疑问,人们可以在逆转糖尿
病、逆转高血压、甚至
通过选择食物来预防癌症方面取得长足的进步。”
[F]
In the big picture, says Dr. Richard
Afable, CEO and president of ST. Joseph Hoag
Health,
medical institutions across the
state are starting to make a philosophical switch
to becoming
a health organization, not
just a health care organization. That feeling
echoes the beliefs of
the Therapeutic
Food Pantry program at Zuckerberg San Francisco
General Hospital, which
completed
its
pilot
phase
and
is
about
to
expand
on
an
ongoing
basis
to
five
clinic
sites
throughout the city. The program will
offer patients several bags of food prescribed for
their
condition, along with intensive
training in how to cook it.
“We really
want to link food and
medicine, and not
just give away food,” says Dr. Rita Nguyen, the
hospital’s medical director
of
Healthy
Food
Initiatives.
“We
want
people
to
understand
what
they’re
eating,
how
to
prepare
it, the role food plays in thei
r
lives.”

圣保罗大学首
席执行官兼总裁理查德·阿费布尔博士
(d
Afable)
说,从大局来看。
约
瑟夫·霍格健康,
全州的医疗机构开始进行哲学上的转变,
成为
一个健康组织,
而不仅仅是
一个医疗保健组织。这种感觉呼应了
扎克伯格旧金山总医院
(Zuckerberg
San
Francisco
General
Hospital)
治疗食品储藏室计划的信念,该计划完成了试点阶段,即将在不断
扩大到
全市五个诊所的基础上。
该计划将为患者提供几袋根据他
们的情况开出的食物,
以及如何烹
饪的强化培训。“我们真的想
把食物和药物联系起来,而不仅仅是赠送食物,”医院健康食品
倡议的医学主任
Rita Nguyen
博士说。
“我们希望人
们了解他们吃的是什么,
如何准备,
食物
在他们生活中扮演的角色。”

In Southern California, Loma Linda
University School of Medicine is offering
specialized
training for its resident
physicians in Lifestyle Medicine
—
that is a formal specialty
in using
food
to
treat
disease.
Research
findings
increasingly
show
the
power
of
food
to
treat
or
reverse diseases, but
that does not mean that diet alone is always the
solution, or that every
illness can
benefit substantially from dietary changes.
Nonetheless, physicians say that they
look at the collective data and a clear
picture emerges: that the salt, sugar, fat and
processed
foods in the American diet
contribute to the nation’s high rates of obesity,
diabetes and heart
disease. According
to the World Health Organization, 80 percent of
deaths from heart disease
and stroke
are caused by high blood pressure, tobacco use,
elevated cholesterol and low
consumption of fruits and vegetables. <

这
是一种正式的利用食物治疗疾病的专业。
研究结果越来越多地显示出食物
治疗或逆转疾病的
能力,
但这并不意味着单靠饮食就能解决问题
,
或者说每种疾病都可以从改变饮食中获得实
质性的好处。尽管
如此,医生们说,他们查看了集体数据,就会发现一幅清晰的图景:美国
