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） 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

Dear editor，

I’m sorry to occupy your precious time, and I really want to tell you anything about the problem of some people keeping too many pets nowadays. I take the problem more and more seriously for the following reason. First of all, as it is known to people, pets make loud noise that trouble residents a lot. What’s more, it is widely accepted that animal waste pollutes the environment, where makes people quite uncomfortable. Many owners like taking their pets to public place where they may frighten children or even bite people. The mostly important is that pets can spread some diseases and this has attracted much attention. Take all these factors into consideration, I sincerely hope that I can get help from you and expect the media do something for this.

Yours truly,

Wang Lin

Both of my parents worked full-time when I was a little girl, so my grandmother would stay at our house during the day. We would watch game shows in the living room. Our favorite was The Price is Right. We would call out our answers along with the contestants.

When I got older and started going to school, we couldn’t watch our game shows regularly. That was okay with me, though, because the one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake. Watching her in the kitchen was amazing: she never seemed to need the recipes but everything she made tasted delicious.

At first I would just sit in the kitchen and watch, even though I didn’t understand what she was doing. As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring the sugar. The day she let me separate the eggs，I felt like I had found complete pleasure.

At last, my parents decided that I could take care of myself，and my grandmother stopped coming over every day. The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself, and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes, more often they turned out pretty well. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too. I felt like I could talk to her about anything.

My grandmother passed away ten years ago, but I still think of her every day. Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me. It included her recipes for brownies, cookies, and my favorite, lemon pie. As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her voice. She was the one who taught me not just about baking, but about life.

A. time B. place

C. logic D. events

2.While helping her grandmother bake, the author .

More than a decade after they first met on Mount Bamian in western Hunan province, a photographer from Shenzhen, has kept his promise of finding funding for a young woman whose arms were amputated(截肢) as a child.

Chen Yongheng has taken about 5,000 photos of Xiang Liping, who he first met when she was 13 in December 2002. She appeared on a hillside as he was coming down the mountain, followed by two other children, carrying large bundles(捆) of straw on their backs. Intrigued by the sight, Chen raised his camera to take a picture of the three — but it was then that he noticed the sleeves of the girl in red blowing in the wind.

After returning home and reviewing his photographs, Chen decided he had to find the girl again. Chen finally found the girl one year later.

From 2003 to 2013, Chen visited the family and took photos of Xiang every year. He entered the contest every year, but every time he failed to win the top prize. That was until December last year, when his pictures caught the attention of journalists at a photo exhibition. After the photos were published online in June, 2016, they were viewed more than 100 million times and attracted more than 80,000 comments. With the support of the China Social Assistance Foundation, more than 300,000 yuan was donated to Xiang. "She now has more confidence and told me over phone that she wants to open an online store," Chen said.
