China’s 5,000-meter Olympic champion Wang Junxia is suffering from a serious condition brought on by stress and her heavy training schedule (日程), according to her coach. Wang was China’s only athletic medallist in the Atlanta Olympic games, winning gold in the woman’s 5,000 meters and silver in the 10,000 meters.
“Wang Junxia is suffering from serious neurasthenia (神经衰弱), which is causing her insomnia (失眠) and even making it painful for her to run,” coach Wang Dezhen told reporters. In an interview with China’s National television station CCTV, Wang said that her headaches come whenever she runs. Neurasthenia is a general term for a condition whose symptoms range (症状范围) from fatigue (疲劳) and anxiety to listlessness (倦怠无力).
“The condition has been brought on by her hard training schedule these past few years and she needs a good rest.” said Mao, who took over Wang’s training when the long-distance star split with long-time coach Ma Junren in late 1994.
Wang is currently recuperating (复原) in Shenyang, capital of the home Liaoning Province, but will join the rest of the provincial team in the southern city of Nanning for winter training in February, Mao said.

B
There are two factors that determine an individual’s intelligence (一个人的智商). The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable (有能力的) than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual — the sort of environment (surroundings) in which he is brought up. If an individual is disabled environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never obtain（获得）the level of intelligence of which he is capable.
The importance of environment in determining an individual’s intelligence can be shown by the case history of the identical (相同的，同胞的) twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was reared (抚养) by parents of low intelligence in a separate community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be encouraged intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark’s I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.
41. This passage can best be titled .
A. Measuring Your Intelligence B. intelligence and Environment

A. individuals with identical brains are seldom tested at the same level.
B. an individual’s intelligence is determined only by his environment
C. lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligence
D. changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain

A listener has written from China for advice about how to lose weight. Michael in Shanghai says he is 26 and has battled obesity for most of his life.
  Obesity , a severe weight problem, is a complex condition. A doctor may advise taking medicine along with changing one’s behaviors. Experts say that the most successful weight—loss plans include a well-balanced diet and exercise.
  People who want to avoid weight gain have to balance the number of calories they eat with the number of calories they use. To lose weight, you can reduce the number of calories you take in, increase the number you use, or both.
  A recent study looked at four of the most popular dieting plans in the US. Researchers at Stanford University in California studied over 300 overweight women, mostly in their thirties and forties. Each woman went on one of the four plans: Atkins, The Zone, Ornish or LEARN. The women attended diet classes and received written information about the food plans.
  At the end of the year, the women on the Atkins diet had lost the most, more than four and one-half kilograms on average. They also did better on tests for cholesterol levels and blood pressure.
  Christopher Gardner, who led the study, says the Atkins diet may be more successful because of its simple message to eat less sugar. He also says that the advice to increase protein in the diet leads to more satisfying meals. He says that there was not enough money to study men, but that men would probably have similar results.
  Last week, another report based on thirty-one studies suggested that only a small minority of people have long-term success with dieting. Most dieters regained their lost weight within five years and often they become more overweight. But those who kept the weight off generally were the ones who exercised.
Title:  1. Proper ___________to lose weight
Doctors’ advice
●: 2._____________ medicine along with changing one’s behaviors
Experts’ 3._________ plans
●a well-balanced diet : ta
