18、uage theyre learning. Still, they have a weighty responsibility: to receive the torch (火炬) and ensure the security oflelo Hawaii for future generations.It was only 50 years ago that the language was on the edge of extinction. Though the situation is much improved, in many wayslelo Hawaii is still on

19、 life support. Teachers say theres a huge enthusiasm for school kids to learn the language, but as they grow up, theyre encouraged to focus on “more useful” subjects and use English, which are believed to assistthem in achieving success in their work. In 2016, there were 18,610 Hawaiian speakers on

20、the islands.“One hundred thousand is the approximate number of speakers needed to consider the language safe,” says Solomon, professor of Hawaiian language at University of Hawaii atMnoa. “The idea is that there are enough people passing it on to the next generation,socializing their children to use

25、 involving nearly 50,000 people from four continents offers new insights into identifying the quantity of daily walking steps that will best improve adults health and longevity(长寿), and whether the ideal number of steps differs across people of different ages. The study represents an effort to devel

26、op an evidence-based public health message about the benefits of physical activity. The often-repeated 10,000-step-a-day saying grew out of a decades-old marketing activity for a Japanese pedometer(计步器), with no science to back it up.Led by physical activity professor Amanda Paluch, an international

27、 group of scientists conducted an experiment among adults aged 18 and older. They grouped the nearly 50,000participants into four comparative groups according to average steps per day. The lowest step group averaged 3,500 steps; the second,5,800; the third,7,800; and the fourth, 10,900steps per day.

28、 Among the three higher active groups, there was a 40-53% lower risk of death,compared to the lowest step group.More specifically, for adults 60 and older, the risk of early death leveled off at about6,000-8,000 steps per day, meaning that more steps than that provided no additional benefit for long

29、evity, while for adults younger than 60, about 8,000-10,000 steps per day.“So, what we saw was this continuing reduction in risk as the number of steps increases,until it levels off. Interestingly, the study found no definitive association with walking speed,”Paluch says.The new study supports and e

30、xpands findings from another study led by Paluch before,which found that walking at least 7,000 steps a day reduced middle-aged peoples risk of early death. “Theres a lot of evidence suggesting that moving even a little more is beneficial,particularly for those who are doing very little activity,” P

31、aluch says. “More steps per day are better for your health.”28. Why did the scientists carry out the new study?A. To know about peoples health condition.B.

34、thood, let alone other animals milk, is a strange behavior in the animal kingdom. What makes it even stranger is that an estimated 68percent of the global human population is actually lactose(乳糖) intolerant. Scientists are still getting to the bottom of why the practice began and continued. This res

35、earch could unlock new understandings of our food cultures and even our DNA.The earliest evidence of animal milk drinking dates back almost 9,000 years to modern-dayTurkey near the sea of Marmara, where milk fats have been found on ancient pottery. According to Jessica Hendy, a scientist at the Univ

36、ersity of York, then milk would have been part of a diverse diet for it was mixed with other food. From its origins, the technology of making use of milk spread into the Caucasu s and then across Europe. By the Bronze Age, people may have been using cows milk to feed their babies.For a long time, re

37、searchers believed that milk drinking changed as a cultural practice hand in hand with the spread of genetic mutations(变异) that allowed people to tolerate milk into adulthood. But one recent finding suggests milk drinking occurred before these mutations and might not even require them. In Europe, pe

38、ople appear to have been drinking milk for thousands of years before any genetic ability to drink milk became common. The ancient cheese making equipment might offer part of the solution: Fermenting(发酵) milk into yogurt,cheese, or other products reduces the amount of lactose. In Mongolia, researcher

39、s have not yet found a genetic mutation that allows people to digest lactose, despite the major role of milk in that culture. So some scientists held that there might be other potential factors helping.What we do know about the history of milk reveals how wrong-headed one-size-fits-all nutritional g

40、uidance can be, In modern America, milk drinking has been presented as a universal good. In reality, how milk is prepared can change the nutritional picture, and how much our bodies process depends, at least in part, on our own genes.32、What can we learn about milk drinking from paragraph 2?A.

When I skied to research sites in Utah to collect snow

45、 for my experiment, the mountainous landscapes were covered in dust. 37 Its clear that 2009 was one of the biggest years for dust deposition(沉积) onto snow. 38 I usually have to cover several kilometers, carrying a 27-kilogramme pack with a shovel(铲子) to dig a snow hole, tools to cut s now and measure its density, and containers to collect snow for analyses. One year, I hit a dusty area of suow, broke my ski andsliced my leg open.In areas with heavy dust deposition, such as the southern Rocky Mountains, dust speeds up mel
