"At the same time,"he added,"in developing countries today,malnutrition is the cause of 174 million children under five years of age being underweight,and 230 million being stunted in their growth.Such figures represent deprivation, suffering and wasted human potential on a scale that is unacceptable from every point of view.Whether we think in terms of humanitarian concern,common justice or development needs, they demand a response,both from national governments and from international community."
At the end of January 1996,98 countries had national plans of action for nutrition and 41 countries had one under preparation,in keeping with their commitments made at the International Conference on Nutrition in Rome in December 1992.The global situation,however,remains grim.Over 800 million people around the world still cannot meet basic needs for energy and protein,more than 2 ,000 million people lack essential micronutrients,and hundreds of millions suffer from diseases caused by unsafe food and unbalanced diets.
In sheer numbers,iron is the most prevalent micronutrient deficiency.Mainly women of reproduction' age and children under five are affected by iron deficiency with prevalence hovering around 50% in developing countries.Among various regions in the world,it is South Asia which is hit hardest with prevalence reaching 80% in some countries.Tn infants and young children even mild anemia is associated with impaired intellectual as well as physical development.In older children and adults iron deficiency reduces work capacity and output.
It also leads to increased accidents at work.
While there is no single remedy,a combination of several preventive approaches is believed to work best.Dietary improvement includes consumption of iron-and vitamin C-rich foods and foods of animal origin, and avoiding drinking tea or coffee with or soon after meals.Iron supplementation of foods,particularly of staple cereals,is practiced in a growing number of countries.Iron supplementation is the most common approach,particularly for pregnant women.

Which of the following is NOT the harm of lacking iron?

_______(56)your muscles begin to work,bum up fuel and produce more heat.It is not_______(57)to
shiver,so you usually prefer warming up by taking exercise,or put_______(58)more clothes to keep
warm。
When you get warm,the skin is loose and soft. It is so supplied_______(59)blood that heat is giv-
en off rapidly. If you get too warm,you begin to sweat and_______(60)body heat is used in evaporating
the, moisture in your body.In warm_______(61)or warm rooms,you wear less clothing,
_______ (62)heat can be given off freely. You prefer less exercise because your body is warm_______(63),and
the extra heat produced by taking too much exercise makes you uncomfortable.
Now you see why you_______(64)differently in different kinds of weather. In summer,when it is

About End-of-Life Care

"You can improve care while________(52)cost by making sure that everything you do is centered on what the patients want,what his or her specific goals are and tailor a treatment plan to ensure we_________(53)the specific care he or she wants,"Dr. Jonathan Bergman,a clinical scholar and fellow in the urology department,said in a university news release.

They also_________(59)that changes to Medicare should be considered.But this is a highly controversial topic that has been sidelined after recent suggested changes were characterized as creating"death panels".
"Given the disproportionate cost of care at the very________(60)of life,the issue should be revisited,"Bergman and colleagues wrote."We should address goals of care,not to___________(61)aggressive care to those who want it,but to ensure that we deliver aggressive care only to those who__________(62).This reduces costs and improves outcomes."

U. S. Blacks Hard-hit by Cancer

Death rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more
likely to die of cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday.
In a special report on cancer and blacks,the organization said blacks are usually
diagnosed with cancer later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.
This could be because of unequal（不平等的）access to medical care, because blacks
are more likely to have other diseases as well,and perhaps because of differences in the
biology（生物学）of the cancer itself, the report added.
"In general,black Americans have less hope of surviving five years after diagnosis
than whites for all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said,
"In describing cancer statistics for black Americans,this report recognizes that many of
the differences associated with race may be caused by unfair social and economic
differences and unequal access to medical care."
The cancer society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups（体格检查）
earlier,when cancer is more treatable,and it said more research is needed to see if
biological differences play a role.
"The new statistics emphasize the continuing importance of wiping out these unfair
social differences through public policy and education efforts,"the organization said in a
statement.
But it also noted a drop in cancer death rates.
"Cancer death rates in both sexes for all sites combined have dropped greatly among
black Americans since 1992,as have incidence rates（发生率）,"said the report.

Which may NOT be a reason for higher cancer death rates among US blacks?
A:Unequal access to medical care.
B:Greater probability of having other diseases.
C:Differences in the biology of the cancer.
D:Early diagnosis.

Sugar Accelerate the Process of Aging

Sugar is widely used in our daily life to make food and drinks sweet,though too much intake of it may lead to diabetes.However,today's study found it also makes people get old faster. Rats that eat high levels of a natural sugar known as fructose seem to age faster than other rats.And the same could be true for people who eat too much sweet junk food,said Israeli researchers.
Fructose,a substance found naturally in honey and fruit,is used widely in foods ranging from soft drinks to yogurt. But while its sweet taste is popular,the sugar could cause wrinkles and health problems,the researchers said.Dr. Moshe Werman and Boaz Levi of the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology fed large amounts of fructose to laboratory rats.Writing in the Journal of Nutrition,they said the fructose-fed rats showed changes in the collagen of their skin and bones.
Collagen,a fibrous protein found in connective tissue,bone and cartilage,basically holds the body together. The loss of collagen is what causes sagging and deep wrinkles in older people.
The process affected,Werman's team said,is known as"cross linking"."Too much crosslinking reduces elasticity and makes the skin stiff and rigid,and these are the conditions that encourage wrinkled skin,"Werman said in a statement. He said the same could be true of people, although this has not been shown."Americans are eating more and more processed foods such as carbonated drinks,baked goods,canned fruits,jams and dairy products that contain fructose," Werman said.Other studies have shown that high fructose intake can affect how the body handles glucose and increases insulin resistance一which can both be important measures of the tendency toward diabetes.
The rats Werman worked with were fed much more than the average adult person might eat in a day,which is standard in such experiments.The rats were 12.5 grams of fructose per kg(2.2 pounds)of weight every day for a year. To compare,a person weighing 154 pounds(70kg)who drinks a quart(liter)of cola consumes about 60 grams of fructose,or 0.8 grams per kg of body weight.

According to the passage,people who eat too much sweet junk food will_______.
A:slow down their process of aging
B:more likely to get diabetes
C:get heavier than others
D:age faster than average people

shiver,so you usually prefer warming up by taking exercise,or put_______(58)more clothes to keep
warm。
When you get warm,the skin is loose and soft. It is so supplied_______(59)blood that heat is giv-
en off rapidly. If you get too warm,you begin to sweat and_______(60)body heat is used in evaporating
