researchers at the university of edinburgh, uk, have identified a protein, known as hbetahsd1, which determines how and where fat is stored in the body around the hips and belly .the study shows that levels of hbetahsd1 tend to be higher in people having unhealthy body fat around the hips and belly. this is typical of overweight people whose apple-shaped bodies put them at greater risk of heart disease and diabetes (糖尿病), the daily mail reports. on the contrary , lower level of the protein was linked to healthier fat, which tends to be found around the hips-typically in pear-shaped people.an apple shape refers to people, especially women, who have full breasts and whose fat is generally stored in the midsection of the bodies. on the other hand, pear shaped people have a hip size that is a little larger than their breast size. the fat tends to be stored around the hips.researchers observed the effects of the protein in mice. they were fed on a high fat diet for four weeks. the mice with the protein in their bodies were more likely to have unhealthy fat tissue on a high fat diet compared to the mice without the protein.scientists are already looking at ways to make medicines that decrease the amount of this protein, which can contribute to over-weight. nik morton, of the university of edinburgh said to the daily mail that this study opens up new avenues for research, and gives us a much better idea of why some fat in the body becomes unhealthy while other fat is safely stored for energy.inflammation (发炎)of the unhealthy fat leads to reactions that can cause harm locally to tissues and affect the whole organism (机体), promoting diabetes, said morton. limiting the presence of this protein could help combat (抗击) this. as well as being more likely to be stored around the most important organs in the middle part of the body, fat with higher levels of hbetahsd1 is considered to be unhealthy. this is connected with an overreaction in the immune system, he added. cells normally become inflamed in order to kill off an infection, but as there is no infection in the fat tissue, the inflammation instead causes damage to healthy cells.28. which of the following statements about apple-shaped people is true? a. they tend to have higher levels of betahsd1 in their bodies. b. they usually have a hip size that is a little larger than their breast size. c. their fat is generally stored in the hips. d. most of them prefer a high fat diet.29. what does the underlined word avenues in paragraph 5 probably mean? a. approaches. b. problems. c. effects. d. medicines.30. according to the article, inflammation of unhealthy fat is dangerous because it . a. can harm tissues all over the body b. may weaken the immune system c. damages the most important organs d. kills off healthy cells in the body31. what is the article mainly about? a. a protein, known as hbetahsd1, and its influence on body fat. b. how body shape is linked to weight problems. c. health suggestions for overweight people. d. new avenues for research on overweight problems.dhonesty, my mum always used to tell me, is the best policy. of course, this didnt include her when she told me that if i didnt eat all my vegetables father christmas would find out and wouldnt give me any presents.but when it comes to medicine, i had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients. after all, the doctor-patient relationship is based on trust, and therefore honesty is essential. or so i thought. i had just started working in geriatrics(老年病科). mr. mcmahon was brought in when his belly was found very swollen. i took a medical history from his daughter whod accompanied him in the ambulance. shed been his main career for years. i stood looking at him as she gave a detailed history. has he lost any weight recently?

she asked in disbelief. i looked at her and bit my lip. she asked me what i was worded about and i told her. i said, hanging my head. and give her more to worry about? replied my consultant. you dont say the word cancer until its confirmed. even if you suspect it, think very carefully when you tell people. as it turned out, it wasnt cancer. but i did learn that when someone is stressed and worried about their loved one theyre sometimes selective in what they hear-and as a doctor its important to be mindful of this. in being truthful, id made the situation worse.32. the purpose of the first two paragraphs is to show that the author . a. misunderstood the doctor-patient relationship b. was anxious to receive christmas gifts c. regarded honesty as the best policy d. had an unhealthy eating habit33. the authors consultant was angry with him because . a. he told the daughter what he suspected b. he delayed running the necessary tests c. he failed to confirm the patients disease d. he forgot what the consultant had advised34. the author hung his bead (the underlined part in para. 4) because he was feeling . a. guilty b. hurt c. disappointed d. helpless35. what lesson has the author learnt from his experience?
