  AIDS is a medical condition caused by HIV, a virus which damages people's natural defenses against disease.So far, no cure has been found for it.

  In the early mid-1980s, while other parts of the world were beginning to deal with the serious disease, Asia remained relatively unaffected by this newly discovered health problem.By the early 1990s, however, HIV and AIDS had hit several Asian countries, and by the end of that decade, HIV was spreading rapidly in many areas of the continent.Today, HIV and AIDS are a growing problem in every region of Asia.The latest statistics produced by UNAIDS suggest that in 2008, over 5 million people were living with HIV or AIDS in Asia.

  Various factors cause the spread of HIV, including poverty, inequality, unequal status of women, cultural myths about sex and high levels of migration(移民).Although it's useful to understand the situation of AIDS in Asia as a whole, each country in the region faces a different situation.In Cambodia and Thailand, there has been evidence of declines in HIV infection levels.In Indonesia, Pakistan and Vietnam, meanwhile, the number of people living with HIV has rapidly increased.In China, the number of people newly infected with HIV and AIDS is also rising, although at a much slower pace.

  Much improvement is needed to prevent HIV and AIDS around Asia.New guidelines and policy documents have been continually issued over the years.Most of the successful programs do have at least three features in common.Firstly, these programs encourage HIV and AIDS education among the general population to teach people how to avoid infection and to face discrimination.Secondly, they are very practical and they involve the infected people themselves in program design and implementation(實(shí)施).Last but not least, strong leadership is essential for HIV prevention.If all of the leaders truly committed themselves to this cause, then a great many lives would be saved.

  It’s that time of year again! The holidays are coming up, and you know what that means…it’s time to shop! Being the busy person that you are, most likely you will do some of your shopping online.And who can blame you? Great prices, great selection, free gift-wrap(禮品包裝)…what’s not to love?

  But take care; taking advantage of the convenience in shopping online could bring risks to both your personal information and your PC.As long as you’re aware of the key issues, you can shop anytime, with the knowledge to protect you.

  Not every Web site and online shop is a safe and reputable merchant! The truth is many thieves are quite skilled at crafting very convincing, legitimate-looking(貌似合法的)online shopping sites.Be very careful who you purchase from! Make sure you know where you’re shopping and that you read all the rules.

  A common phishing tactic(網(wǎng)絡(luò)釣魚策略)targeting(……作為目標(biāo))online shoppers makes use of online promotions and sales to encourage a consumer to enter personal information in order to receive coupons(贈(zèng)劵)or other gifts.While many reliable sites offer coupons or samples, they will never ask for extra amounts of personal information, most only require a name and email address.

  But don’t back away from the PC just yet! By taking into consideration a few simple actions, you can protect your credit, purchases, and personal information while shopping online.Go ahead and give that credit card a practice.You can be safe.

(1).Always shop from a safe PC.

(2).Try to stick to the sites you know and trust… such as Amazon, Overstock, and large store websites.

(3).If you heard about a “great gift” or “special offer” through an email from an unknown address, it is likely fake and should be avoided.

(4).Make sure that the connection to the website is an http.This doesn't guarantee safety, but in most cases these sites are safe.

(5).Consider choosing ways of payment, such as cash upon delivery

So enjoy your online holiday shopping.Giving the gift of happiness this holiday season doesn’t have to cost you more than you’ve expected.

  In France, when a woman enters a cafe or restaurant, she is freely discussed, not only about her appearance but about her past and future as well.She invites looks in the street whether she is beautiful or plain.There is no better way for a woman to get back her self-confidence than a walk in the streets of Paris or Marseilles, and women really like that.

  In Italy, people love talking.They sit about in cafes, exchanging news and discussing politics.They do not hesitate to ask questions about the family, income and private life of anybody who happens to be there.

  The Swiss eat as a pastime.Ladies walk into a teashop, eat a couple of ice creams and a large piece of chocolate cake, and then leave, complaining about their weight.

  For the Americans, the greatest fondness is said to be the push of buttons.You push a button in the lift, you push a button for cigarette, chewing gums, stamps, even for a life insurance.You can even push a button to get married and another button to get divorced.

  In England, waiting in a line is national passion.The English will form a line whether they have the opportunities when the train is practically empty and everybody can have a seat.

注意:每個(gè)空格只填一個(gè)單詞。

  We all need physical exercise.Exercise uses up food we eat and keeps the body full of energy.It works your muscles and makes your heart work hard so as to send blood to your muscles.So, exercise makes your heart and muscles strong.Exercise also makes you feel refreshed.If you exercise a couple of times a week, you will stay happy and healthy.

  Some Western countries, such as the United States, have problems with exercise.In the US, many people don't have enough exercise because it is hard for them.People have to work from dawn till dusk, so they don't have time to take exercise.They work in office buildings sitting in chairs all day long in front of computers.They cannot get much exercise sitting at desk passively.

  Some Westerners can get exercise walking from their homes to work.However, the majority of people cannot do this.It is too far from their homes to their offices.They have no choice but to drive to work.In fact, some have to drive one or two hours to their offices.This is unfavourable in two ways.First, these people don't have a chance to exercise because they are sitting in their cars for two to four hours each day.Second, driving is challenging especially in rush hours and calls for too much attention.It makes a person worn out.So, when these people arrive home at night, they don't have the desire to take exercise after work.

  Today, many people in the West are overweight, which causes health problems for them.Doctors say exercise can help people both lose weight and improve their health.So many people are trying to get more exercise.But it takes time to change, and when people don't see a difference right away, they will lose heart and stop exercising.

People unhappy with the rich: Poll

There is growing dissatisfaction toward rich people, according to a new online poll.

The poll by the China Youth Daily in collaboration(與…合作) with Sina.com has highlighted the apparent discontent (不滿)over the country's widening income gap.

Nearly 8,000 people filled in online questionnaires last week, and when asked to use three words to describe society's rich, the top responses were "extravagant"(奢侈的), "greedy" and "corrupt".

About 57 percent of those polled said that "extravagant" was the best word to describe the rich, followed closely by "greedy".

Ironically, despite their dissatisfaction, 93 percent of those polled wished they could be rich too, and that richer people should be "socially responsible".

Some 33 percent of respondents also praised rich people for being "smart".

Nearly 90 percent of respondents agreed that most people in society, including themselves, were willing to speak up for the poor but were reluctant to take action and actually do something for them.

The survey comes on the heels of a heated debate over comments made by renowned economist Mao Yushi, who said he was "speaking for the rich and working for the poor".

A report released by the Asian Development Bank last Wednesday revealed that China's Gini coefficient - an indicator of the wealth divide - rose from 0.407 in 1993 to 0.473 in 2004.

An earlier CASS report said that the richest 10 percent of Chinese families now own more than 40 percent of all private assets, while the poorest 10 percent share less than 2 percent of the total wealth.

The country's income disparity(懸殊) is close to that of Latin America, the report which came out in January said.
