【時(shí)事聚焦】 世界衛(wèi)生組織報(bào)告顯示，無論是發(fā)達(dá)還是發(fā)展中，兒童青少年肥胖率正逐年上升。全球兒童、青少年肥胖率明顯增加，且各年齡組兒童體重均以0.2kg/年的幅度增張。在中國，隨著人們生活水平的提高以及行為，生活方式和膳食結(jié)構(gòu)的改變，兒童青少年肥胖率呈逐年增加趨勢(shì)。請(qǐng)看以下某著名網(wǎng)站的一則相關(guān)報(bào)道：
China's waistline grows with its economy
TIANJIN, China - Even though he's now a young adult, Liang Yong finds that relatives still hand him yummy things to eat.
"I am pampered by my parents and my grandparents," admits the 24- year-old Liang, the only male offspring of his family's clan. "They give me candies, meat and eggs."
So, like growing numbers of Chinese youth, Liang is taking a stab at losing weight. A recent day found him on his back in an obesity clinic with acupuncture needles poking into his upper thigh.
"It hurts a little bit," Liang said as acupuncturist Huang Wenjun twirled the needles in Liang's bulky thigh and lower trunk.
Pound for pound, China still lags far behind the United States, where 64.5 percent of adults 20 and older are overweight. While comparisons are inexact, in China the numbers may be closer to 10 percent to 13 percent. But as their economy develops, Chinese tip the scales ever more. Urban residents are abandoning bicycles, eating rich diets, limiting exercise and pondering ways to slim down.
China's weight-loss industry now tops $1.2 billion. Clinics peddle herbal medicines, "weight-loss" teas, acupuncture, massage programs and other techniques far different than in the West.
In Beijing, the capital, students wolf down food like never before. The obesity rate among primary and middle school students has risen to 18 percent, from 10 percent in 1991, the state Xinhua news agency said recently, citing a survey by the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Every year, the rate of obesity in China increases 10 percent," said Shi Lidong, chief executive of the Aimin Fat Reduction Hospital in Tianjin, a former British and French concession 75 miles southeast of Beijing.
【熱點(diǎn)話題】 根據(jù)上述報(bào)道，在中國，青少年的肥胖問題已經(jīng)日趨嚴(yán)重，朗閣海外考試研究中心分析認(rèn)為，這一話題對(duì)廣大雅思考生備考雅思閱讀也有一定的參考價(jià)值。隨著經(jīng)濟(jì)的迅速發(fā)展，中國已成為世界上一大強(qiáng)國。這個(gè)中發(fā)生的變化自然也是世人關(guān)注的焦點(diǎn)所在。作為面向全球的雅思考試，當(dāng)然也不會(huì)放過這么好的素材。況且雅思考試本身經(jīng)常就會(huì)涉及醫(yī)藥或者健康相關(guān)的問題，特別是對(duì)中國的傳統(tǒng)療法頗感興趣。因此，掌握這方面的內(nèi)容對(duì)于雅思閱讀來說意義深遠(yuǎn)。
【難句詞匯】 雅思考生的閱讀難點(diǎn)之一就是詞匯量和句型的掌握程度的不同，如果學(xué)生的詞匯量不足，那么文章將看不懂，我們從上文中就可以學(xué)到很多的句型和詞匯。
So, like growing numbers of Chinese youth, Liang is taking a stab at losing weight.
