填空题Yesterday we discussed the problem of rising prices. In other words, or in the (36) terms, it is regarded as inflation. We noted that, during the (37) of inflation, all prices and incomes do not rise at the same rate. Some incomes rise more slowly than the cost of living, and a few do not rise at all. Other incomes, (38) , rise more (39) than the cost of living. We concluded that persons with fixed incomes, as for example, the (40) who depend upon pensions, a person with slow-rising incomes as, for example, an (41) with a salary agreed to in a long-term (42) will be most seriously affected by inflation. Please (43) that while their dollar incomes stay the same, the cost of goods and services rises, and in effect, real income decreases; that is (44) . We also talked about the fact that (45) , since high prices would increase sales and profits would likely rise faster then the cost of living. And now, before we begin today's lecture, (46) ?

{{B}}You Can Stay the Weight You Want{{/B}} Three years ago, at
the age of 24, Deborah Whalley decided to get rid of the "80-pound backpack" of
extra weight she was carrying on her five-foot-nine frame. It wasn't the first
time that Whalley, a retail assistant manager in Toronto, had embarked on a
diet. "I lost 30 pounds in Grade 9," she recalls. "Not only did
I gain the Weight back in short order, but I also put on about 50 extra pounds
over the next nine years. ' If you've ever been on a diet,
you've probably discovered, as Whalley did, that taking off extra pounds is a
lot easier than keeping them off. In fact, 95 percent of people who lose weight
end ap gaining it back. Cycling back and forth between higher
and lower weights is not just demoralizing, however. "There's some evidence that
yo-yoing within a 20-or 30-pound range puts more stress on your heart than
carrying those 20 or 30 extra pounds," says Stephen Cunnane, a professor of
nutritional sciences at the University of Toronto.So how do you maintain the
lower weight you achieve after dieting? Researchers and doctors who have studied
the five percent of dieters who keep the weight off have found common threads in
their approaches and attitudes. Here are the secrets to their success:
{{B}}Listen to Your Heart{{/B}} According to Linda McCargar,
professor of human nutrition at the University of Alberta and one of Canada's
leading experts on the effects of yo-yo dieting, you're much more likely to
succeed if your motivation comes from within--a desire to take better care of
yourself, or "a significant emotional event that causes you to re-evaluate your
lifestyle choices.' Endocrinologist Ronnie Aronson, who runs three Lifestyle
Metabolism centers in Ontario, suggests small behavioral changes, such as taking
after-dinner walks, to get into the self-motivation mind-set."People who use
pressure from their partner or doctor to kick-start weight loss are more likely
to fail,' adds Aronson. {{B}}Plan to Beat Temptation{{/B}} If
you know you have, say, a family reunion coming up, complete with buffet meals,
you need to develop coping strategies before you' re "surrounded by temptation,'
says Susan Cantwell, a wellness trainer based in Fredericton, For example, you
might picture yourself choosing only one serving of scrambled eggs and a single
slice of lightly buttered toast from the breakfast buffet. Do this exercise for
a few days in a row and your mental imagery becomes your ally.Cantwell
cautions against battling too much temptation during the early weeks of a
weight-loss effort. "For the first 30 days or so, I tell my clients to say no to
invitations that spell temptation, such as coffee at your favorite dessert
hangout,' she says. “After the first month, it becomes safer to accept such
invitations--as long as you do some mental preparation for them. ”{{B}}It' s
more than Numbers{{/B}} Cantwell says long-term success is much
more likely if the goal is the new behavior pattern itself-- getting to the gym,
for instance--rather than the figure on the bathroom scale. In fact, she
suggests doing away with the scale altogether: "It's a poor indicator of
increasing fitness and body tone. 'Cantwell drew on her ten years of
experience in getting people to change ingrained habits for her book Mind over
Matter: Personal Choices for a Lifetime of Fitness. Her thesis, Setbacks plague
people who are trying to change, and the key to staying on track in the face of
these inevitable setbacks is to make "a daily commitment to your new behaviors,
regardless of what happened yesterday." {{B}}Take it Slow{{/B}}
"No more than two pounds a week and no fewer than 1,100 calories a day,"
is Aronson's rule of thumb. "Extreme self-denial doesn't work. It usually leads
to an 'escape' from the self-denial."Another problem with extreme caloric
deprivation is that your basal metabolic rate will drop temporarily while you're
on this regimen, says McCargar. "You .won't burn as much fuel, calorie for
calorie, as you would on a more moderate diet. '”{{B}}Honor Your
Preferences{{/B}} When you've lost weight and you're in the
weight-maintenance phase, Aronson says, it's important to create a regimen you
can follow for the rest of your life. "If you adore chocolates, then you need to
build the occasional taste of chocolate into your eating plan. Otherwise, you
run the risk of not being able to stop after you have one." This
philosophy helped Whalley eventually maintain her weight loss. Rather than give
up her favorite cheesecake and fast foods, she buys or prepares lighter versions
and occasionally treats herself to a serving of the real McCoy. "There's no
single food that's off-limits for me," she says. "It's a question of how much
and how often. “ {{B}}Be a Protein Pal{{/B}} Calorie
for calorie, protein is more satisfying than fat, so people on protein-rich
diets tend to feel more full on the same number of calories, says Angelo
Tremblay, a metabolism researcher at Laval University in Quebec City. "You're
less likely to overstep your caloric requirements if your diet has high protein
content," he says. Conversely, fats and alcohol are least likely to make you
feel sated. "You can have a lot of them and still not feel full, which increases
the likelihood you'll overeat." Stephen Cunnane says that
fiber-rich foods also promote a feeling of fullness or satiety. So, eating more
fiber should help you eat less food. {{B}}Move It or Gain It
Back{{/B}} Referring to a U. S. registry of successful
dieters--people who lost an average of 66 pounds and kept it off for five
years--McCargar Says the behavior that most consistently distinguished the
successful dieters was regular physical activity. Those who had embarked on an
exercise program involving at least 2,500 extra calories in energy output weekly
(equal to about five hours of vigorous aerobic exercise) fared especially
well. "Your body has a tendency to stay lean when you exercise
regularly," says Peter Jones, a professor at McGill University's School of
Dietetics and Human Nutrition. "Even if you eat more, the energy you use for
physical activity seems to more than compensate for the increased food intake.
Exercise also leads to greater muscle mass, which uses extra calories to
maintain itself." Aronson has also observed that successful
weight maintainers tend to incorporate physical activity into their everyday
lifestyle rather than just devote a few blocks of time to formal exercise. For
example, they walk upstairs instead of taking the elevator or park farther away
from the mall door. {{B}}Find a Cheerleader{{/B}}
"Next to exercise," concludes McCargar, "having social support from
family, friends or community group stands out as key to long-term weight
maintenance." When you're just starting out on a new eating and
exercising plan--an especially vulnerable period--Cantwell suggests asking a
friend to call periodically to cheer you on. "Just make sure thai that friend
doesn't let you off the hook too easily!"
