In every school a “top” crowd sets the pace

，

while the others follow their lead. Let’s say the

top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters. Pretty soon everybody is wearing

16

bright

red

sweater.

There

is

nothing

wrong

with

that,

17

___

the

fact

that

on

some

people a bright red sweater is

18

(extreme) unbecoming(

不得体的

). The situation can even

become dangerous

，

if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or to drive cars at seventy

miles an hour. Then the people

19

(follow) the lead are endangering their lives. They are

like the sheep’s

the crowd does it. ”Well

let the crowd do it

but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say

“No.”

Develop

It is obvious that doctors recognize obesity as a health problem. So why is it so hard for

them to talk to their patients about it?

The results of two surveys, one of primary care physicians and the other of patients, found

that while most doctors want to help patients lose weight and think it is their responsibility to do

so, they often don’t know what to say.

“So

while

doctors

may

tell

patients

they

are

overweight,

the

conversation

often

ends

there,” said Christine C. Ferguson, director of the

Stop Obesity Alliance

. “Pati

ents are not told

about

the

possibility

of

diabetes

(

糖尿病

),”

she

said.

“And

doctors

don’t

feel

they

have

good

information to give. They felt that they didn’t have adequate tools to address this problem.

The lack of dialogue hurts patients, too. The patient survey, of over 1,000 adults, found that

most

overweight

patients

don’t

even

know

that

they’re

too

heavy.

Only

39

percent

of

overweight

people

surveyed

had

ever

been

told

by

a

health

care

provider

that

they

were

overweight.

Of those who were told they were obese, 90 percent were also told by their doctors to lose

weight, the survey found. In fact most have tried to lose weight and may have been successful in

the past

—

and many are still trying, the survey found. And many understand that losing even a

small

amount

of

weight

can

have

a

positive

impact

on

their

health

and

reduce

their

risk

of

obesityrelated diseases like hypertension and diabetes.

Dr. William Bestermann Jr., medical director of Holston Medical Group, in Kingsport, Tenn. ,

which ranks the 10th in obesity among metropolitan areas in the United States, said the dialogue

had to be an ongoing one and could not be dropped after just one mention of the problem. “If

you’re

to

be

successful

with

helping

your

patients

lose

weight,

you

have

to

talk

to

the

m

at

actually

every

visit

about

their

progress,

and

find

something

to

encourage

them

and

coach

them,” he said.

He acknowledged that many doctors tend to be not optimistic.

“Part of this is that there's this common belief, and doctors are burdened by it, to

o, that

overweight people are weak-

willed and just don’t have any willpower and are self

indulgent and

all

that

business,”

he

said.

“If

you

think

that

way,

you’re

not

going

to

spend

time

having

a

productive conversation.”

It is pretty much

a one-way street

. While it may be common for university researchers to

try their luck in the commercial world, there is very little traffic in the opposite direction. Pay has

always been the biggest deterrent, as people with families often feel they cannot afford the drop

in salary when moving to a university job. For some industrial scientists, however, the attractions

of academia (

学术界

) outweigh any financial considerations.

Helen Lee took a 70% cut in salary when she moved from a senior post in Abbott Laboratories

to

a

medical

department

at

the

University

of

Cambridge.

Her

main

reason

for

returning

to

academia

mid-career

was

to

take

advantage

of

the

greater

freedom

to

choose

research

questions. Some areas of inquiry have few prospects of a commercial return, and Lee’s is one of

them.

The impact of a salary cut is probably less severe for a scientist in the early stages of a career.
