You must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puz-zles in our life．

What if you say it first and your partner doesn&39; t love you back？ Or if they do say it but youdon&39;t feel they mean it？ Being the first to declare your love can be nerve-racking(紧张) and riskyand can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell．But is the person who says it firstreally in a position of weakness？ Doesn&39;t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the otherhalf has shown their hand fh&39;st？

"A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist Sid-ney Crown．"But love is seldom equal．" All relationships go through power straggles but, he says,if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in．"That feeling of &39;I&39; ve always loved youmore&39; may be subverted(颠覆，破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often e-merges in squabbling(大声争吵)．" In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always themost powerful．"The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough totalk about their feelings," says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins．Psychosexual therapist PaulaHall agrees．"The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative．In fact, theperson who says &39;I love you&39; first may also be the one who says &39;I&39;m bored with you&39; first．" Hallbelieves that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying it．

"Is it said when they&39; re drunk？ Is it said before their parmer flies off on holiday, and what it reallymeans is &39; Please don&39; t be unfaithful to me&39; ？ By saying &39; I love you&39;, they really saying&39; Do youlove me？&39; If so, wouldn&39; t it just be more honest to say that？" Collins agrees that intention is every-thing．"It&39; s not what is said, but how it&39; s said．What it comes down to is the sincerity of thespeaker．"

根据以下材料回答题

Most of you would probably say that what makes you truly happy is your family and the loveyou share in your relationships, and I couldn&39;t agree more．But money comes into play inthose relationships．

When I talk about money this way to a group, there is always someone who comes up to meand says, "Suze, you are so wrong．Money isn&39;t the key to life--this is!" At which point their wal-let flies open and they show me a photo of their family．

That&39;s when things get interesting, because I start asking them questions: Did you take thatphoto with your own camera？ It looks like a beautiful beach, was the photo taken on a family va-cation？ Do you hope to help those beautiful boys and girls go to college？

As their answers are"yes", I ask them how they provide all of that for their．family．That&39;swhen they understand that I had it fight．

I totally agree that family and friends are of great importance to our well being；without mean-ingful relationships, there&39;s no chance of ever being truly happy．That&39;s why, every Saturdaynight, I end my CNBC show with the following words:" People first．Then money．Then things．"

How we deal with the money we have also plays into our happiness．Over the past few decades (十年), the percentage of Americans who say they&39;re happy hasn&39;t changed much, while at thesame time the average income has doubled．So we have more money, but we&39;re not much happieron average．

A paradox(悖论) ？ Far from it．My sense is that while we&39;re making more money, we arent&39;tmaking more of the money we make．We have to pay for a lot of things, and we have to worry a-bout saving for retirement(退休) in a way that our parents and grandparents never did．And as man-y of you know, it&39;s really hard to increase your happiness when you&39;ve got a lot of money worries．

Do you agree, or am I way off base？ I&39;d love to know what do you think about the money/happiness connection．

Why do people often show the author their family photos？ 查看材料

A.They hope to show money is very important．

B.They want to prove they can afford a holiday．

C.They think a good family makes them truly happy．

D.They believe a happy person considers people first．

though it is no known precisely how the drug controls convulsions. There is no anecdotal evidence that it has had an anti-aglng effect in people. The next step, Komfeld says, is to test if the drugs have an anti-aging effect on animal like flies and mice。 Very little is known about the aging process. From genetic analysis, researchers have found that an in sulin-like signaling system regulates aging and longevity. A good diet can delay aging and extend a person life span. But scientists know virtually nothing about the effect of drugs on aging. “It’s a big void, ” Konfeld said。 In addition to delaying age-related degenerative changes, the drugs also increased neuromuscular activty, suggesting a link between the neuromuscular system and the aging process。

A. But Komfeld said scientists will not know about the applicability of the drugs in humans until a similar study is done on humans. “What’s very encouraging is that these drugs were developed to treat humans, and they are well understood, because they’ve been used for a long time, ” he said。

B. Later the scientists discovered that two related anticonvulsant drugs also lengthened the lives of the worms-in the case of one drug, by almost 50 percent. “This was a big surprise to use, Komfeld said. ”“We didn’t think anticonvulsant drugs had any particular relationship to aging. That connection was completely unexpected. ”

C. Roundworms are a poor subject for experiments, because they are not like humans, even though their molecules are similar. For example, they have no bones, nor do they show emotions, making it difficult to know how exactly human subjects would react to these drugs in large quantities. However, using the worms allows experiments to be conducted quickly, because they do not live for long。

D. “Somehow the neural activity seems to regulate the aging of all of the body the skin, musculature, and reproductive tract, ” Kornfeld said. “Somehow the nervous system coordinates the progress of all these tissues, evidently, though the life stages. But we don’t know how it does that. ”

E. The discovery may also shed light on the little-understood aging process. Since the drugs act on the neuromuscular systems of both humans and worms, the findings hint at a link between neural activity and aging。

F. Unlike vertebrates, the worms are ideal subjects for the study of aging because of their short life spans, which last only a couple of weeks in a laboratory. The worm is well known in genetics, and the worm’s genome has been sequenced。

G. Use of this drug has been permitted by law since 1998 and wider use is now expected as a result of the studies. “We can clearly link this drug with human aging, but we still need to find proof, says Kornfeld optimistically. ”

Health Care and Epidemics (流行病)

Everyone suffers from disease at some time or another. However, millions of people around the world do not have good health care. Sometimes they have no money to pay for medical treatment. Sometimes they have money, but there is no doctor. Sometimes the doctor does not know how to treat the disease, and sometimes there is no treatment. Some people are afraid of doctors. When these conditions are present in large population centers, epidemics can start.

Epidemics can change history. Explorations and wars cause different groups of people to come into contact with other. They carry strange disease to each other. For example, when the Europeans first came to North and South America, they brought diseases with them that killed about 95 percent of the Native American population.

People are very afraid of unknown things, especially diseases. People have all kinds of ideas about how to prevent and treat disease. Some people think that if you eat lots of onions or garlic, you won' t get sick. Others say you should take huge amounts of vitamins. Scientific experiments have not proved most of these theories. However, people still spend millions of dollars on vitamins and other probably useless treatments or preventatives. Some people want antibiotics whenever they get sick. Some antibiotics are very expensive. Much of this money is wasted because some diseases are caused by a virus. Viruses are even smaller than bacteria, and they cause different kinds of diseases. Antibiotics are useless against viruses.

Because of their fear, people can be cruel to victims of disease. Sometimes they fire them from their jobs, throw them out of their apartments, and refuse them transportation services.

In the plague (瘟疫) epidemics a few hundred years ago, people simply covered the doors and windows of the victim' s houses and left them to die inside, all in an effort to protect themselves from getting sick.

Doctors know how most epidemic diseases spread. Some, like tuberculosis, are spread when people' s sneeze (喷嚏) sends the bacteria shooting out into the air. Then they enter the mouth or nose of anyone nearby.

Others are spread through human contact, such as on the hands. When you are sick and blow your nose, you get viruses or bacteria on your hands. Then you touch another person' s hand, and when that person touches his or her mouth, nose, or eyes, the disease enters the body. Some diseases spread when people touch the same dishes, towels, and furniture. You can pick up a disease when you touch things in public buildings.

Other diseases are spread through insects such as flies, mosquitoes, and ticks.

One disease that causes frequent, worldwide epidemics is influenza, or flu for short. The symptoms (症状) of influenza include headache and sometimes a runny nose. Some victims get sick to their stomachs. These symptoms are similar to symptoms of other, milder diseases. Influenza can be a much more serious disease, especially for pregnant women, people over sixty-five, and people already suffering from another disease, such as heart problems. About half of all flu patients have a high body temperature, called a fever. Flu is very contagious. One person catches the flu from another person; it doesn't begin inside the body as heart disease does.

Sometimes medicine can relieve the symptoms. That is, it can make a person cough less, make headaches less intense, and stop noses from running for a while. However, medicine can ' t always cure the disease. So far, there is no cure for many diseases and no medicine to prevent them. People have to try to prevent them in other ways.

Some diseases can be prevented by vaccination (接种疫苗). A liquid vaccine is injected into the arm or taken by mouth and the person is safe from catching that
