At some hot lines, the advisers are volunteers. Other hot lines pay their advisers for their work.

If you get into the forest with your friends，stay with them always. If you don't，you may get lost(迷路).If you really get lost，this is what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don't try to find your friends—let them find you by staying in one place.

There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you. Give them a signal(信号) by shouting or whistling(吹口哨)three times. Any signal given three times is a call for help.

Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together. When people hear you，they will know that you are not just making noise for fun. They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They give you two shouts，two whistles，or two gun-shots. When someone gives you a signal，it is an answer to a call for help.

If you don't think that you will get help before night comes，try to make a little house—cover up to the holes with branches with lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.

What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water？You would have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don't just walk away. Pick off small branches and drop them as you walk so that you can find your way back. The most important thing to do when you are lost is—stay in one place.

PART FOUR　WRITING (25 marks )

Section A (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

 

Fast food and too much TV time shouldn’t take all the blame for（对…承担责任） the weight problems. A group of researchers say that a number of aspects（方面） of modern living---- from lack of sleep to environmental chemicals and to living with air conditioning(空调) ----may be closely related to the weight problems of many people.

  Lack of sleep is one factor（因素）. Research in animals and humans suggests that a lack of sleep over a long period of time can increase appetite（食欲）. Studies also show that many adults and children are sleeping less than they used to. In recent decades（十年间）, adults have gone from sleeping for all average of nine hours to about seven hours.

  There is also evidence that industrial chemicals may increase body fat. These chemicals, which are used in products, change hormonal（荷尔蒙） activity when they get into the body. Studies suggest that people have been getting more and more of these chemicals through the food chain in recent decades.

   Another factor that may be making people overweight is air conditioning. The body burns calories when forced to control its own temperature, and people tend to eat less in hot and wet weather, but air conditioning makes it unnecessary for the body to make any adjustment（调整）.

   Researchers also list other possible risk factors for overweight, including more older mothers, whose children may become overweight more easily; a number of medicines which can lead to weight gain; and fewer people who smoke, since people often gain weight when they stop smoking because nicotine can make people eat less.

   No one is suggesting that people should stop working and sleep more, or keep smoking. When it comes to any person’s weight, what really matters is how much they eat and how much of the food they use every day. That means diet and exercise are still the key.

 

Title：      66        related to（与…..有关的） the weight problems
