A.Causes of overusing fluoride

B.Negative effects of fluoride

C.Safe use of fluoride

D.The expert’s background information

E.No need to worry about fluoride poisoning

F.Solutions to improper use of fluoride

I have heard that fluoride can help stop dental decay, but I recently read that it is poisonousWhich of these is true? How can children use fluoride safely?

1.

 

This question is answered by Dr Marcia M.Rich who practises general dentistry in Newholt.She is also a lecturer at the University and a writer for the monthly magazine Your Dentist Cares

2.

 

My answer to the first question is to stress that fluoride works well and is safe when users follow instructions.Young children have a tendency to swallow toothpaste, which is why they should only have a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush.If this simple measure is taken, parents can be confident that children will be protected against tooth decay, and come to no harm.

3.

 

Almost all medicines have an adverse effect-or even be deadly-if they are not taken as directed.So you are right-fluoride can be poisonous if it is swallowed in very large quantities.It is for the reason that fluoride supplements can only be obtained on prescription from the doctor or dentist.Please be assured that fluoride overdoses are rare-in fact, I have never heard of any fatal incidents related to fluoride poisoning.

4.

 

Scientific studies have shown that fluoride can help to prevent cavities as long as it is used correctly.If fluoride is abused, there is a risk of illness or even deaths in extreme cases.If a deadly amount of fluoride is taken, immediate first-aid could save a life.A person who has swallowed a large amount of fluoride will probably start vomiting.If not, the patient should be given milk or antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.

5.

 

Taking too much fluoride while teeth are growing can lead to a condition called dental fluorosis.The most likely cause is the swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young children.It can also be caused by inappropriate use of fluoride drop or other fluoride supplements, for example when fluoride is already is already present in drinking water.

Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets.But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.

That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”-events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”

Mr.Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.

The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives.The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities changed over the years?” Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”

As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain.Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another.“We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says.“But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”

The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer.The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom with for hours.But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.

“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up.“What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”

Some said they felt “liberated” to talk on sensitive topics.Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”

1.What can the “conversations” be best described as?

         A.Deep and one-on-one.       B.Sensitive and mad.

         C.Instant and inspiring.         D.Ordinary and encouraging.

2.In a “feast of conversations”, participants ______.

         A.pair freely with anyone they like

         B.have a guided talk for a set of period of time

         C.ask questions they themselves would not answer

         D.wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.

3.In paragraph 6, “they would be ‘intimate’” is closest in meaning to “______”.

         A.they would have physical contact     B.they would have in-depth talk

         C.they would be close friends       D.they would exchange basic information

4.From the passage, we can conclude that what Zeldin does is ______.

         A.an attempt to promote thinking interaction

         B.one of the maddest activities ever conducted

         C.a try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideas

         D.an effort to give people a chance of talking freely

They like using the Internet.They have lots of pocket money to spend.And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us.Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the things they want to buy-games, CDs and clothing-are easily sold on the Web.

But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit cards.Most have to use a parent’s card.They want a facility that allows them to spend money.

That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic.If successful, these products can stimulate online sales.

In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and £20bn annually in the UK.Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school-88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK.According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online-mainly CDs and books.

In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children.Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street.They are more likely to ask “Why?” if you ask to spend some money online.

One way to help teenagers change notes and coins into cybercast is through prepaid cards such as Internet Cash in the US and Smart cards in the UK.Similar to those for pay-as-you-go mobile telephones, they are sold in amounts such as£20 or $50 with a concealed 14-digit number that can be used to load the cash into an online account.

1.What does the word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to?

         A.Sellers.       B.Buyers.      C.Teenagers.         D.Parents.

2.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

         A.More than half of the teenagers in the US and the UK have Internet access.

         B.Teenagers pay for goods online with their own credit cards.

         C.Most teenagers in the US and the UK have bought something online.

         D.Teenagers found it easier to persuade parents to buy online than in a shop.

3.A new way to help teenagers shop online is to use ______.

         A.a new machine  B.special coins and notes

         C.prepaid cards    D.pay-as-you-go mobile phones
