The Five Best Countries TO Move To For Retirement

Retiring in a different country is gaining popularity. Below are five of the best countries to seek retirement Costa Rica

Mild climate, breathtaking landscapes and beaches draw retirees(退休人员）to Costa Rica. The country readily welcomes immigrants and offers a simple residency process. With a monthly income of at least $ 1,000 per month from Social Security or a similar source, people enjoy a high standard of living at a much lower cost than the U. S. Malaysia

Retirees who choose to make Malaysia home will appreciate its rich culture and attractive scenery. Moreover, the country offers modern facilities at modest prices. Immigrants enjoy convenience and comfort in their daily life. You will find low-cost rental units, delicious street food, and various shopping malls. Mexico

Because it’s close to the U.S., Mexico draws more than a million American retirees to its borders. Increasing immigrant communities enjoy seaside living and conversations with friendly English speaking locals. Plus, legal residents over the age of 60 receive airline, grocery, and restaurant discounts. Panama

Gentle ocean wind takes the heat out of hot year-round temperatures, which has been the chief attraction to foreign retirees. Beautiful beaches and a booming economy also attract retirees to Panama. An income of $2,000 per month covers modest living costs. Furthermore, the country offers discounts to retirees with a special visa.

A. Convenient shopping. B. Relatively low living cost. C. Various cultural activities. D. Simple immigration procedures.

The morning had been a disaster.My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt:“The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally,at about lunchtime, I got lucky.

“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said,“the dentist will fit you in.”

I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?

In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.

When I told her my fears,she laughed and said,“Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”

“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.

“Come on,he is coming.Just lie down and relax.And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.

“The artwork?” I was puzzled.

The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it:on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.

What a relief!

It is said that if you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise — and as a result, we are growing old unnecessarily soon.

Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of aging could be slowed down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations. Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual on economical faculties. Contraction(萎缩) of front and side parts — as cells die off — was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty-and seventy-year-olds. Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to the contraction normally connected with age — using the head.

The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the town. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.

Matsuzawa's findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain, good blood circulation is through using the brain.” he says. “Think hard and engage in conversation. Don’t rely on pocket

calculators.”

8. The team of doctors wanted to find out ______.

A．the size of certain people's brains B．how to slow down the process of aging C．which people are most intelligent

D．why certain people are aging sooner than others. 9．On what are their research findings based?

A．The study of brain volumes of different people. B．The study of brain volumes of old people. C．The latest development of computer technology. D．A survey of farmers in northern old people. 10．The doctors’ tests show that _______.

A．our brains shrink as we grow older

B．the front section of the brain does not shrink

C．sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds D．some people's brains have contracted more than other people's

11．According to the passage, which people seem to age more slowly than the others?

A．Lawyers.

B．Farmers.

C．Clerks. D

Do you live in a city where looking up the air quality forecast is just as important as checking the weather forecast for the day? Many places around the world have terrible pollution problems. But now new research suggests that we might be able to protect ourselves，naturally and easily— simply by taking vitamin B．

The study was conducted by a team of international researchers. Their focus was on a pollutant known as PM2.5. Its size, approximately l/40th the width of a human hair, makes it particularly dangerous because it is readily inhaled and small enough to spread through the body via the blood. This can cause damage to the lungs if PM2.5 is being breathed in regularly.

The current experiment involved subjects being exposed to clean air and a placebo(安慰剂) to record baseline responses. They were given the placebo for four weeks, then exposed through a face mask to air from a highly polluted area in downtown Toronto. The researchers measured methylation (甲基化) changes to DNA; the damage increased in each participant. However, in the repeated experiment, when the volunteers were given a vitamin supplement containing 1 milligram of vitamin B12, 50 mg of vitamin B6, and 2.5 mg of folic acid daily for four weeks, it reduced the damage to the DNA by a range of 28 to 76 percent.

The results indicate how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight the harmful effects of PM2.5. However, researchers stressed that research was in its early stages. Future studies, especially in heavily polluted areas, are urgently needed and they’ll finally develop preventive measures using B vitamins to prevent the health effects of air pollution.

12．What does the underlined word “inhaled” in Paragraph 1 refer to?

4

D．Shop assistants.

A．breathed. B．smelt.

C．approached. D．discovered.

13．How does the author introduce the current experiment?

A．By analyzing causes.

B．By giving examples. D．By describing effects.

C．By making comparisons.

14．What can we learn about the researchers in the last paragraph?

A．They warned people of heavy pollution. B．They regretted not using enough volunteers. C．They’ll soon find more ways to test B vitamins. D．They’ll confirm the findings in highly polluted areas. 15．What can be the best title of the text?

A．PM2.5 Is Most Deadly

B．Vitamin B Benefits People Most

C．Vitamin B Offers Air Pollution Protection D．Air Quality Forecast Is Extremely Important

How often do you let other people’s nonsense change your mood? Do you let a bad driver, impolite waiter, rude boss, or an insensitive employee ___21___ your day?

One day I was in a taxi and we headed ___22___ the airport. We were driving in the ___23___ lane when suddenly a black car drove out of a parking space right in front of us.

The driver of the other car looked around and started ___26___ at us.

My taxi driver just ___27___ and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really ___28___. So I asked, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!”

This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”. He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of ___29___, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage ___30___ up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they’ll dump it on ___31___. Don’t take it personally. Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.
