问答题Increasingly over the past ten years, people—especially young people—have become aware of the need to change their eating habits because much of the food they eat, particularly processed food, is not good for the health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today. Natural foods, for example, are vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount—but not the quality—of foods grown in commercial farming areas. Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry, there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food, they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins. There are other aspects of healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on diet. Take, for example, the question of sugar. This is actually a nonessential food! Although a natural alternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten food if this is necessary, we can in fact do without it. It is true that sugar has grown steadily over the last two centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds (90kg) a year! Yet all it does is to provide us with energy, in the form of calories. There are no vitamins in it, no minerals and no fiber. It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables, certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis is placed on the eating of whole-meal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on "healthy eating".

Exactly where we will stand in the long war against disease by
the year 2050 is impossible to say. (111) {{U}}But if developments in research
maintain their current pace, it seems likely that a combination of improved
attention to dietary and environmental factors, along with advances in gene
therapy and protein-targeted drags, will have virtually eliminated most major
classes of disease.{{/U}} From an economic standpoint, the best
news may be that these accomplishments could be accompanied by a drop in
health-care costs. (112) {{U}}Costs may even fall as diseases are brought under
control using pinpointed, short term therapies now being developed.{{/U}} By 2050
there will be fewer hospitals, and surgical procedures will be largely
restricted to the treatment of accidents and other forms of trauma (外伤).
Spending on nonacute (慢性病的) care, both in nursing facilities and in homes, will
also fall sharply as more elderly people lead healthy lives until close to
death. One result of medicine's success in controlling disease
will be a dramatic increase in life expectancy. (113) {{U}}The extent of that
increase is a highly, speculative matter, but it is worth noting that medical
science has already helped to make the very old (currently defined as those over
85 years of age) the fastest growing segment of the population.{{/U}} Between 1960
and 1995, the U. S. population as a whole increased by about 45%, while the
segment over 85 years of age grew by almost 300%. (114) {{U}}There has been a
similar explosion in the population of centenarians, with the result that
survival to the age of 100 is no longer the newsworthy feat that it was only a
few decades ago.{{/U}} U. S. Census Bureau projections already forecast dramatic
increase in the number of centenarians in the next 50 years: 4 million in 2050,
compared with 37, 000 in 1990. (115) {{U}}Although Census Bureau
calculations project an increase in average life span of only eight years by the
year 2050, some experts believe that the human life span should not begin to
encounter any theoretical natural limits before 120 years.{{/U}} With continuing
advances in molecular medicine and a growing understanding of the aging process,
that limit could rise to 130 years or more.

问答题Write an essay on Water Shortage in China and Suggestions on Remedies. The article below can be used to support your writing in facts and certain remedies.
2) Not less than 150 words.
Water Crisis Looming for China
Surging water consumption in China's growing cities and towns, coupled with reckless industrial and agricultural use, is straining the nation's already strapped water supplies, the government and several international organizations warn.
China's water resources amount to the fifth-largest in the world, and its winding rivers have cradled civilizations for over five millennia. But with the country's population swelling to 1.3 billion, many of China's rivers, including the legendary Yellow River, are drying up, and the water table is falling. The international groups say dwindling water supplies could disrupt China' s food security, public health, environment, and economic growth. "China's problem is "brown" poverty. If you look at a map, large swaths of the country are totally brown nothing can grow there," said Deepak Bhattasali, the World Bank' s chief economist in Beijing. "If this brown spreads, so will hunger, and industrial growth will slow.
The country's annual per capital water supply is only 2,200 cubic meters, 25% of the global average, according to the World Bank. The government says that by 2030, the water supply is expected to fall below 1,700 cubic meters per person, which the World Bank calls dangerously low. During the same period, water demand is expected to more than triple, from 120 billion tons a year to 400 billion tons. Using uncharacteristically strong language, the World Bank recently warned that the situation "will soon become unmanageable, with catastrophic consequences for future generations."
China does not act like a nation in the midst of a water shortage, Taps run freely because the government subsidizes water supplies, especially to farmers. For industry, China' s water consumption efficiency is one-tenth that of developed countries. And only a fraction of China' s industrially used water is recycled, mostly because local governments are loath to burden local firms with costly recycling roles. A senior Chinese official in charge of water resources has said China loses more than 30 billion cubic meters of water every year, causing a $28 billion loss in industrial output. But he says he is committed to making the tough decisions needed to correct the situation. Water conservation and recycling programs are being introduced, and the government has said it will raise the price of water supplied to farmers and industry. Steps are being taken to curb rapid deforestation and soil erosion across the country. Hydropower, which creates large evaporating reservoirs, is increasingly being complemented with wind power. China is on track to generate 10% of its power from wind and solar energy by 2010. Programs to desalinate seawater using solar energy are also in place in several cities. But none of this is likely to be enough, analysts say.
Lester Brown of the World watch Institute, an environmental watchdog based in Washington, D.C. warns that China's water problems will have global repercussions. Brown calculates that shortages will cut China's annual agricultural output by 9 million tons, forcing it to buy grain. This will push up world food prices.
