3."Some day,there'll be no Americans left in the NBA,"said 12-year-old Xing Tao,who joined his school team two weeks ago after watching Yao Ming in a televised NBA game,"The players will all be Chinese,like Yao."
To China,Yao is a home-grown superstar who helped make the world's first basketball league closer to Chinese players.To the NBA,the 2.23-meter center offers an opening of a different sort into the world's largest new market.Yao's NBA first appearance against the Indiana Pacers in October reached 287 million families in the US.That game might have been a bit of a letdown to Yao's fans:He played just 11 of the 48 minutes,had two rebounds(籃板) and got no points.Comparing that with his performance on December 19,also against Indiana,Yao won 29 points and 10 rebounds."This was one of the most exciting games I've had,"Yao said after Houston's 95-83 victory.The NBA has to be excited about his on-count success.In all his games,he's averaging 12.7 points and 7.7 rebounds,quite good for a new star."Yao Ming has brought the NBA closer to the Chinese,"said NBA spokeswoman Cheong Sau Ching,"That makes the dream seem practical for other people in China and proud to be Chinese."
The 22-year-old Yao is not the country's first player in the NBA:Wang Zhizhi broke down the Dallas Mavericks in November 2003.But Yao's combination of modesty and skills make him a favorite back home.

15.During the month of September,a dear friend of mine lost her husband suddenly in an accident.The tragedy was a shock to everyone.
This accident was sudden and certainly unexpected.It drove home the realization that you just don't know when a loved one is no longer going to be with you.We sometimes take our loved ones for granted,and we expect they will be with us forever.However,as we all know,life does not work that way and sometimes we get a wake up call that shocks us and makes us stand back and realize how short life is.
In consoling her,I tried to imagine if I were in her shoes how I would feel.It was impossible to imagine what she was going through.What words could I say to help her?
Sometimes words just can't express our feelings.Sometimes our actions are much more meaningful than words.A hug can sometimes express more than our words will ever express.Sometimes,just being there to listen is more meaningful and helpful to people.
A second wake up call.
As I was leaving the funeral,I ran into Marilyn.Marilyn has been a true friend to me over the years.She is one of those friends who is with you in the good times and is always by your side in the bad times.She has a sense of humor that makes everyone laugh and she makes everyone feel at ease.We chit-chatted for a few moments,and then she asked me how my job was.So I started talking and talking (I am sure she wished she had never asked).I was having a stressful week with my job and I was telling her all the issues and how I was feeling.She listened to me as I was raving about my frustrations,then without saying a word,she took her hands and placed them on my face,and said to me,"But at least you had a day."
The touch of her hands on my cheeks,the calmness in her voice,and the words she spoke,"BUT AT LEAST YOU HAD A DAY."hit me like a ton of bricks.All the frustrations,all the stress that was building up inside me came to a complete stop.
Since that day,when I start feeling stressed,I remind myself of Marilyn's words:but at least I had a day!Things could be a lot worse.The stress of the situation always could be worse,but I am alive and I have a lot to be thankful for,so I shall not waste my days with stress and frustrations.Life is too short!

A.a(chǎn)ctions may be more meaningful than words

13.Even a small reduction in salt in the diet can be a big help to the heart.A new study used a computer model to predict(預(yù)測(cè)) how just three grams less a day would affect heart disease in the United States.
The study is in the New England Journal of Medicine.Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo at the University of California San Francisco,is the leader of the research team.She says people would not even notice a difference in taste with three grams,or one-half teaspoon,less salt per day.The team also included researchers at Columbia University,like Weston Forbes.
The result:ten percent fewer heart attacks.Four percent fewer deaths.Eleven percent fewer new cases of heart disease.And two hundred forty billion dollars in health care savings.Thus it could prevent one hundred thousand heart attacks and ninety-two thousand deaths every year.
The government says the average American man eats ten grams of salt a day.Michael swan from the American Heart Association advises no more than three grams for healthy people.It says salt in the American diet has increased fifty percent since the nineteen seventies,while blood pressures have also risen.Less salt can mean a lower blood pressure.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is leading an effort called the National Salt Reduction Initiative.The idea is to put pressure on food companies and restaurants.Mayor Bloomberg has already succeeded in other areas,like requiring fast food places in the city to list calorie information.Now a study shows how that idea can influence(影響) what parents order for their children.

53.How much salt did Americans take in per day on average in the 1970s?C
A.Three grams.      B.Five grams.
C.Seven grams.      D.Ten grams.
54.Who is head of the team studying the relation between salt reduction and heart attack?A
A.Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo.
B.Michael Bloomberg.
C.Michael Swan.
D.Weston Forbes.
55.The text mainly tells us thatB.
A.cutting salt intake can save more money
B.eating less salt means more healthy life
C.cutting salt intake helps reduce calories
D.eating less salt can cure heart disease
56.According to the text,we may conclude thatC.
A.eating salt less than 3grams makes much difference in taste
B.the American government thinks little of salt reduction
C.more salt in the daily diet may result in higher blood pressure
D.100,000Americans die from higher blood pressure each year.
