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
20
(lead) to the butcher. Now, chances are
21
you have come
across
situations
like
these more

once
in
life;
your
chances

22
you

probably did something you knew to be
wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying
,
“Gee
,
the
crowd does it. ”Well
,
let the
crowd do it
,
but don’t do it
yourself. Learn to
say
,
“No.”
Develop
your
own
standards
and
your
own
judgment.
23
you

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.
