Childhood obesity puts kids at risk for cardiovascular disease, bone and joint problems, sleep apnea, and potential social and psychological problems. 1.
Of course, the CDC recommends healthy lifestyle choices—healthy eating, physical exercise. 2. That is to provide a safe and supportive environment where healthy lifestyle choices can be made.
What don't kids need?3.Too much focus on overweight leads toward more weight gain.
A new data analysis of two studies found that children whose parents considered them to be “overweight" tended to gain more weight over 10 years than children whose parents considered them “normal weight". Children whose parents label them as “overweight" had a negative self-perception about their bodies. They were engaged in more attempts to lose weight. 4.
The clear message from this study is that dieting is more likely to lead to weight gain, not weight loss, in both children and adults. Psychology researchers Eric Robinson and Angelina Sutin argue that the stigma of being labeled overweight as a child might actually gain weight in the future.
5. For the study, children's height and weight were measured at age 4 or 5, and parents were asked to describe whether they thought the children were best described as underweight, normal weight, overweight or very overweight. When the children were 12 or 13, they used images to best depict what they perceived their bodies to look like and were asked whether or not they engaged in any dieting behavior. Height and weight measurements were taken again when the children were 14 or 15 years old.
A.Labels and pressure around weight and weight gain.
B.Left untreated, these problems can continue into adulthood.
C.They also point out another important way to keep kids healthy.
D.The researchers cannot be certain about what is driving.
E.They analyzed the data from a study of Australian children.
F.But it actually contributed to weight gain over the 10-year period.
G.A number of mothers in this study suffer from depression and anxiety.
Last year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that 55 million people in the U. S. are “gig workers" which is more than 35 percent of the U. S. workforce. That number is projected to jump to 43 percent by 2020.
People are drawn to gig work(零工)because it brings in a little extra income without a major time commitment. And recent technologies like Skype, Slack, and Dropbox have made the gig life a reality, giving you maximum freedom, an ideal work-life balance, and the chance to pursue your passions.
If you're thinking of joining the gig economy, it's never been easier. One of the great things about the gig economy is that you don't have a boss breathing down your neck. As a freelancer, you no longer have to cater to a company culture or work schedule that might cause physical or emotional stress. Instead, you get to choose the type of work you do and who you work with. But this degree of freedom requires a corresponding amount of discipline. With no boss to make sure you're on task, it's all on you.
A lot of gig workers start their careers by hopping on a project because the employer is desperate and in need of help. On the employer's end, it's tough to take on people for higher management positions when the pool of talent is full of gig workers who haven't been given an opportunity to improve their skills. Businesses have to evolve to learn how to account for an influx((涌入)of temporary workers. It is harder for gig workers to become skilled and get promoted.
The workforce is becoming more advanced and educated by the day. You have to keep learning and keep up with industry trends to maintain a competitive edge. This is true even for people in traditional office settings, but it's critical if you're your own boss.
1.What made the gig life a reality?
A.Greater work-life balance. B.New technologies.
C.A little extra money. D.Maximum freedom.
2.What does the underlined phrase “breathing down your neck” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Making you unable to breathe freely.
B.Standing very close behind you.
C.Threatening you by saying something.
D.Monitoring you closely.
3.What can we infer from the last but one paragraph?
A.Employers should invest in training the temporary workers.
B.Gig workers start their jobs out of passion.
C.It's hard for employers to employ people for higher positions.
D.It's hard for gig workers to develop skills.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The Strengths and Weaknesses of the Gig Economy
B.The Challenges of the Gig Economy
C.The Increase of the Gig Economy
D.The Reason for the Gig Economy
At a time when industries are under greater pressure to reduce costs and increase efficiencies, more production facilities are turning to digital sensing technology to provide the real-time insights they need for improved performance. What if one digital sensor could measure multiple signals?
Yokogawa's DPharp(差压传送器)digital technology has the unique ability to measure two pressure parameters (参数),delivering reliable and accurate measurement of plant operations. The unique aspect of this digital technology is that it measures two parameters in one sensor module, providing additional insight into a plant's operations. It is the only sensor in the world that does this.
DPharp transmitters(发射器)use silicon(硅)resonant(谐振的)sensor technology to measure both differential(差别) and still pressure. The sensor consists of two H-shaped crystal silicon resonators that shake at a certain frequency and, when pressure is applied, the frequency of one resonator increases while the other decreases. By monitoring these frequencies digitally, both differential and still pressure can be measured at the same time. The frequency output is directly read by the central processing unit of the transmitter.
DPharp can be used in any processing plant across any industry—oil and gas to food and drinks. DPharp's unique digital sensing technology allows engineering firms and plant engineers to create designs that will equate to an average reduction of 40 percent. Where they would typically use five measuring devices, they are using three by using the multi-sensing technology. That is a significant cost reduction in the number of devices installed and the added benefit is that, as there are less devices, the engineering and design is less complex, which means less materials and less equipment to maintain. Furthermore, there are fewer transmitter spares required, which reduces costs. Tony Farah, Product Manager, said that more organisations are seeing the significant benefits of smart devices like DPharp.
1.What is special about DPharp digital technology?
A.It provides the real-time insights.
B.It brings significant changes in engineering.
C.It measures two parameters in one sensor.
D.It provides accurate measurement.
2.What is the frequency output read by?
A.Two H-shaped crystal silicon resonators.
B.The central processing unit of the transmitter.
C.Monitoring devices.
D.The operator of the plant.
3.What is the plants' attitude to DPharp?
A.Cautious. B.Ambiguous.
C.Favorable. D.Disapproving.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A.How DPharp is bringing value across production plants.
B.How sensor works in a different way.
C.Why DPharp is efficient and reliable.
D.Where DPharp can be used.
