Task 1: Diets

新视野大学英语视听说教程第一册最新版Unit1——Unit10答案(含听力原文)

If you’re a young lady in your twenties, you may be either on a diet or wondering which diet to follow. Indeed, people are so concerned with their appearance that the word “diet” has lost its original meaning. It now has the same meaning as “weight loss diet”. There was a time when women bound their waists to have a nice figure. Them came Twiggy, a British supermodel most famous in the 1960s, and since then everyone has wanted to look like a twig. Because of this trend, many diets have become popular. It is not uncommon to meet young girls who look weak enough to be blown away in the wind, yet they are still talking about diets! However, extreme diets can lead to health problems. Many such dieters may end up with very serious disorders. Princess Diana suffered from an excessively strong appetite; Karen Carpenter, a popular singer of the 1970s, died of the less of appetite. You should know that looking good is important but not when it comes at he risk of your health and life. Better eating habits and proper exercise are all you need to be fit and look good.

There’s nothing gradual about the flu: it hits you like a hammer. One minute you’re feeling fine, and the next you can be shivering, burning up, and then shivering again. In minutes, your legs become weak and your body aches in places that have never hurt before. Influenza can break out so suddenly that people can sometimes say, “It hit me at exactly 9 last night.” But whether the flu strikes at night or on the bus to school, there’s just one thing a victim wants to do: lie down in bed.

A healthy person can fight off the flu in three to five days, though a cough and tired feeling can last two more weeks. But often an attack of the flu is followed by another illness. Doctors recommend that old people, or people of nay age with heart or lung problems, get a flu vaccine every year. Because flu viruses change all the time, a new vaccine must be prepared each year to protect against future attacks.

VI. Furthering Listening and Speaking

Task 1: Medical Services on Campus

新视野大学英语视听说教程第一册最新版Unit1——Unit10答案(含听力原文)

While every university in America has its own policies and creates its own rules, most provide some type of medical service or health insurance for students, especially large universities. If students have a cold, or other illnesses, they can see a doctor, and they may also seek medical advice on a range of issues. Free testing for STDs such as HIV is a major part of disease prevention—sharing important information about the epidemic. If students need a major operation or procedure, they must seek outside assistance, but the school may help them make the arrangements. Smaller universities and colleges are not likely to provide in-depth medical assistance; they usually deal with small problems in housing, and assist students to take care of major issues off campus. No medical services are offered in universities and colleges that do not have students living on campus.

1. medical service health insurance

2. medical advice

3. operation outside make the arrangements

4. medical assistance housing off campus

5. living on campus

Task 3: Doctor’s Advice

Once an old gentleman went to see a doctor. The doctor examined him and said, “Medicine won’t help you.” You must have a complete rest. Go to a quiet country place for a month, go to bed early, drink milk, walk a lot, and smoke just one cigar a day.”

“Thank you very much,” said the old gentleman, “I shall do everything you say.”

A month later, the gentleman came to the doctor again, “How do you do!” said the doctor, “I am very glad to see you. You look much younger.”

“Oh, doctor,” said the gentleman, “I feel quite well now. I had a good rest. I went to bed early. I drank a lot of milk. I walked a lot. Your advice certainly helped me. But you told me to smoke one cigar a day, and that one cigar almost killed me at first. It’s no joke to start smoking at j\my age.”
