For worm fed a sugary diet, life is sweet, but short. According to a new study published in the journal (sulartabulision)Cell Metabolism, (consistily) consistently adding a smaller amount of sugar to (worms')a worm’s regular diet of bacteria shortened its (life stand) lifespan by twenty percent. The research was performed on (insianegons)C. elegans, tiny roundworms (were)that typically living in an average of two weeks.

In previous work, Cynthia Kenyon (in)of the University of (caloforian)California, (sanfransico)San Francisco, find that a (limitation)mutation to a gene called (delft too)daf-2 change (insolate)insulin (siglin)signaling and doubled the (life spend) lifespan of the worms. And the worms didn't get older (they usual pays) at their usual pace (than) and (they)then hang on longer- they actually aged more slowly.

Now K's new study shows (the)that worms with the (delft too)daf-2 (limitation)mutation don't get the life (instanding)extending benefits if they are routinely fed glucose(retain finding blucos). More research will(would) be needed to see whether a(the) similar situation holds true in humans. But K believes the finding might have significant implications(implentcations) for emerging diabetes therapys, as well as for diets that could extend lifespans(n't stand lifes mains). This much is(in) certain: based on her research K has stopped eating dessert.

For worms fed a sugary diet, life is sweet but short. According to a new study publishing in the journal cell metabolism, can exist (consistently) adding to a small amount of sugar to worm (regular) diet of bacteria, shortened its life span by 20%. The research was performed from C elegan (elegans ???), tiny round worms typically live an average 2 weeks.

In previous work, C K of university of California, San Francisco found that (a mutation to a) gene (called) def(daf)-2 changed the gene instencily (insulin signaling ) and doubled the life span of worms’. And the worms didn’t get it all useful pay since (old at their usual pace and then) hang on longer, they actually aged more slowly.

Now K’s new study shows that worms (with) def 2 tissue (mutation) don’t get the life expanding (extending) benefits if they are retining blue codes (routinely fed glucose 通常地 被喂 葡萄糖). More researches would be needed to see whether a similar situation holds truine (true in) humans. But K believes the findings might have significant implications for emerging diet be dis there bes (diabetes therapies 糖尿病 治疗), as well as for dies that could extend life spans. This much (is) certain, based on (her) research, K stop (has stopped) eating dessert.

When H1N1 (each one were) on the rise (rice) and flu shots hard to find(that a fluence how to defend), few things are as terrifying(sterify) as(is) [------]. But now a report in the journal Psychological Science suggests that coughing and sneezing can spread more than viruses. They also spread fear, of germs and more.

So you are on line(lying) for a movie when the guy behind you lets(is) losse a big, juicy[-----]. Maybe you hold your breath or maybe decide to skip the flick and go home to scrub your hands like you’re Lady Macbeth. Well, psychologists (are) got to wondering whether that well-grounded caution(cause) could snowball into an overarching(over archi...) skittishness about disease and other things.

So they stationed a colleague on a college campus and had her(a) sneeze loudly as students walked by. They then asked those students estimate the risk the anverage Americans runs of(around) having a heart attack or getting killed in an accidence. Sure enough, kids who’d heard sneezing will more doom-and-gloom than those who got away scott-tissue-free. They also found that folks(focus) who were coughed on[d-on连读] were more likely to favor(fever) federal fundings (finding) for flu vaccines than for the creation of green jobs. The findings, needless(need us) to say, are nothing to sneeze at.

germ: n. 菌
skip the flick: 放弃这部片子 （flick: n. ……）

With H1N1 on the rise and flu shots hard to find, few things are as terrifying as, but now a report in the journal psychological science suggests that coughing[coff] in sneezing can spread more than viruses. They also spread fear of germs[jorms] and more.


So you are on line for a movie when the guy behind you lets loose[lies loss] a big juicy[jouce]. Maybe you hold your breath or maybe you decide to skip the flick and[escape the fliping] go home to scrub[scabing] your hands like you’re Lady Macbeth[your bath]. well psychologist got to wondering w[h]ether that well-grounded caution could snowball n.  雪球 v.  打雪仗, 滚雪球般增长; 向...丢雪球, 使滚雪球般增长[slow bow] into an overarching skittishness[overall ...] about disease and other things.


So they stationed a colleague on a college campus and had sneeze loudly as students walked by, they then asked those students to estimate the risk the average American runs of having a heart[hard to] attack or getting killed in an accident. Sure enough, kids who’d heard[...] Sneezing, were more doom-and-gloom[do] than those who got away Scott-tissue-free[schot tissue free]. They also found that folks who were coughed on[will caugh down] were more likely to favor federal funding for flu vaccines than for the creation of green jobs, the findings needless[need us] to say are nothing to sneeze at

Oh, no! The details are hard to recognize

With HINI on the rise and flue shots are defined (hard to find, 我要怎么区分~她把to念成”di”), few things are terrifying as “sneeze”. But now a report on a journal psychological science suggests the coughing and sneezing can spread more (than) viruses. They also spread fear, germs and more.

So you are on a line for a movie, when a guy behind you lets(这个是let’s吗？语法和翻译上怎么解呢？让我们？) loose a big juicy(多汁的~多形象啊，猜对的。。。). May be you hold breath, or maybe you decide to escape to (skip the flick轻巧快速移动and) go home to scrube (scrub, 除了小树丛，还有使劲洗的意思) the XXX (your hands)like you’re lady bath(Macbeth, 这个名字，考场上，我是绝对想不到的). Well, psychologists were got to wondering whether that well grounded cortion (caution) could a snowball into arching skiness (an overarching skittishness, 这什么意思？查了也不明白) about disease and other things.（这句话什么意思?）

So the distinction they got (they stationed a colleague) on a college campus and had (her) sneeze loudly the students walked by. They then asked those students to estimate the risk the average of American runs over (of) having a heart attack or getting killed in an accident. Sure enough, kids who have (had heard) sneezing were more domen glue (doom and gloom) than those got away XXX tissue free (Scott-tissue-free, 这又是什么？google了也没查出个究竟). They also found the focus (folks who) were coughed on (were) more likely to flavor for finding(federal funding) of flue vaccines than for creation for green jobs. The findings needless to say, are nothing to sneeze at.

总的来说，就是不明白啥意思~还有，那个juicy也太。。。

Through the years, evolution has cooked up some pretty remarkable adaptations: the finch's beak(beek), the giraffe’s neck(the divers' leg) and the sprinter's toes. Yes, scientists at(in) Penn State University have found that for runners who ace the(a) hundred-yard dash, the thrill(three) of victory may spring from the(D) ankles(archor) and feet.

When the starting pistol fires, sprinters launch into the race with a(the) burst(brust) of acceleration. That initial velocity depends, (and) in part, on the length of their toes. The scientists examined the feet of a dozen collegiate sprinters and a dozen non-athletes (to the)of a similar height. They measured foot length and use ultrasound imaging to watch Achilles tendons (and the)in action and they found two things.

Frist, the sprinters have longer toes. That could give them an(the) advantage by allowing them to maintain maximum contact with the ground as they push off the starting block. Second, their Achilles tendons have less leverage. That might sound bad, but it acutally allows their leg muscles to produce greater force.

So next time you see someone like Olympic champion Usain Bolt (hxpe) whip through a hundred-meter sprint(sprinter) in less than ten seconds, remember, his toes are a big part of such an amazing feat.

sprint: n. 短跑；sprinter: n. 短跑运动员
giraffe: n. 长颈鹿
ace vt. 取得A等成绩
the hundred yard dash: 百码冲刺
thrill: n. 强烈的兴奋，爆发力
ankle: n. 脚踝
initial velocity: 初速度 vi;vt
in part: 部分地
collegiate: adj. 学院的（经常听不出来）
athlete: n. 运动员（经常听不出来）
ultrasound imaging: 超声波成像
Achilles tendons: 跟腱
starting block: 起跑架
whip through: 迅速结束
feat: n. 功绩

Through the years, evolutions are cooked up(捏造、编造) to pretty remarkable reputations (adaptations). The finch’s beak, the drafes’ leg (giraffe’s neck) and sprinter’s toes. Yes, scientists depend on (at Penn State) a university (have) found that for round of eight of a (runners who ace vt. (网球)发球得分, 考试中取得好成绩 the) 100 yard dash, the thrill(兴奋) of victory may spring(from) the angle(ankles) and the feet.

When the starting pistol fires, sprinters launching to (launch into) the race to a burst of acceleration. then they may shall longsity (that initial velocity=speed) depends, in part, on the length of their toes. The scientists examined the feet doesn’t colleages with the (of a dozen collegiate) sprinter, and doesn’t none a fleet at (a dozen non-athletes) of a similar height. They measure their foot length, and use altricy (ultrasound) imaging to watch it’s killing to tendency (Achilles tendons…我要如何才能当场就听出来，这是“阿喀琉斯之踵”看到了就知道，不算本事！我脑子里顿时呈现布拉德皮特的强健古铜色身躯。。。) in action. And they found two things.

First, the sprinters have longer toes. That could give them an advantage by lowering (allowing) them to maintain maximum contact with the ground that (as they) push off them left the starting block. Second, their kill tendency (Achilles tendons) have less leverage(n 杠杆作用；力量位置上的优势). That might sound bad, but actually lowers (allows) their leg muscles to produce greater force.

So, next time you see someone (like) Olympic champions you sing bolt (Usain Bolt 我发现博尔特的姓真适合他！有个中文片名叫闪电狗的英文就是Bolt)through a hundred meter sprinter in less than ten seconds, remember, these (his)toes are a big part of such an amazing feet(feat,成就、功绩).

真是一塌糊涂。。。
