Ways to Track Your Personal Health Information on Your Phone
Your smartphone is a powerful and flexible tool for acquiring information related to your health. 1. There are other various ways that allow the user several approaches for acquiring health information.
● 2.The sensors (传感器) built in to your phone can automatically acquire selected types of health information when they are linked to suitable apps. Thus, the apps take advantage of the phone's stock hardware to deliver specialized health-related functions. 3. Numerous apps use the phone's GPS to track outdoor activities like running or walking. A handful of apps also use the accelerometer (加速度计) to track indoor activities like treadmill running，which would be impossible to measure with the GPS.
● Acquire information with a separate health sensor. The smartphone itself is a wonder of modern technology. 4. Here are a few devices you can connect with your phone to track health information: Activity trackers like the fitbit, blood pressure monitor, heart rhythm monitor. Comprehensive platforms like Apple's Health app make it easy to tie all this information together.
● Link to your electronic health records. Much of your health information may be stored in electronic health records maintained by your health care providers. 5.You can access your health records through a patient portal (入口) on your phone or download it with the Blue Button function.
A.See doctor with remote-controlled technology.
B.Acquire information with the phone’s sensors.
C.A popular example is tracking physical activity.
D.This is the most primitive way to track your health information.
E.Patients are now allowed to access information stored in electronic health records.
F.You can use your phone’s native apps or a cloud storage service to track your health information.
G.However, its greatest potential for health tracking may lie in the ability to connect to separate sensors.
The U.S. high school dropout rate has fallen in recent years, with the number of dropouts declining from 1 million in 2012 to about 750,000 in 2016, according to a new study released on Tuesday. The number of “dropout factories" — high schools in which fewer than 60 percent of freshmen graduate in four years—declined significantly during the same period.
"Clear progress is being made," said Bob Wise, a former West Virginia governor who heads the Alliance for Excellent Education, one of the organizations that published the study. “It’s not a total success yet. We shouldn't take a victory lap. But we can at least start warming up.”
Education Secretary Arne Duncan has said the improving graduation rate serves as evidence that the nation's public schools are making progress. But there are many reasons that graduation rates can rise, and not all of them have to do with stronger schools preparing more students for life after high school.
Alabama, for example，made outsize gains in 2014: Its graduation fate jumped more than six percentage points, the second-biggest increase in the nation. But the increase coincided with a policy change that took in the same year: Alabama students no longer had to pass a high school exit exam to earn a diploma. So what looks like a major improvement stemmed at least in part from easier requirements.
It is also not clear how many students are graduating with the skills they need for the workplace or for college. Graduation requirements vary widely across states, and many states offer multiple levels of diplomas with different requirements.
Arizona students can earn a standard diploma that requires four courses in math, four in English and three in science, according to Achieve, a nonprofit organization that has studied graduation requirements in each state. But Arizona students also can earn a “Grand Canyon" diploma, which requires just two courses each in math, science and English—less than many colleges require for admission.

A.there are few dropouts in U. S. high schools
B.the U.S. high school dropout rate has fallen
C.the number of “dropout factories" has increased
D.the number of high school students is increasing
2.The underlined phrase “coincided with" in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by .

3.What do we know about the “Grand Canyon" diploma in Arizona?
A.Students need to put more efforts into it.
B.It's much required for colleges in Arizona.
C.Students who get it won't necessarily be admitted to colleges.
D.It' s more difficult to get than a standard diploma.
Something strange was happening inside Anne' s home. During the summer of 2014, twins Gavin and Garrett, then three, each had skin rash (疹子) that wouldn't go away. 14-year-old J. D. had stomach pains so severe that he couldn’t climb the stairs，but tests found nothing wrong. By winter, the family's health problems were getting worse.
One day, Anne found brown water flowed out of the tap. Worried that the water was polluted, the family began using bottled water for cooking，drinking, and bathing.
In January 2015，the city of Flint sent out a notice stating that the water supply—which had been switched, in a cost-cutting measure, from the Detroit water system to the Flint River the previous spring—contained high levels of trihalomethanes (三卤甲烷). The notice warned that elderly people might be at risk for health problems but emphasized that the water was otherwise safe to drink.
Shocked, the self-claimed "stay-at-home mom turned water warrior" researched the water supply and searched the Internet for information that she distributed to city officials, listing the side effects of exposure to trihalomethanes. Then she urged her neighbors to attend city council meetings, where they shared their health problems. Still, officials insisted the water was safe to drink. So Anne demanded that the city test her water. The results were disturbing. The trihalomethanes were the least of her problems. The tests included that the lead levels in her water were nearly seven times the legal amount.
Anne had her children tested for lead. All the kids showed lead poisoning. She requested Flint's water quality reports and discovered that the city wasn't applying the proper corrosion (腐蚀) control standards to its pipes; the standards prevent the metal in pipes from leaking into the water.

A.His stomach hurt so much that he couldn’t' climb the stairs.
B.He had rash on his skin which wouldn’t' disappear.
C.His disease got too ill for him to get any medical tests.
D.He had weak eyesight and couldn't go to school,
2.Why did the city of Flint change its water supply?
A.The Detroit water system had been polluted.
B.The Flint River was made clean a year ago.
C.They wanted to cut the cost of water supply.
D.The Flint River always has brown water.
3.The test of the water from Anne' s home showed that .
A.her family had the worst of the trihalomethanes pollution
B.the water from her tap was safe to use except for drinking
C.her family was located in the most polluted part of the city
D.there was something more serious than the trihalomethanes
4.The water problem was caused by
A.the lack of proper corrosion control to the pipes
B.the overuse of water-purifying chemicals
