Cooking Classes Aim to Restore Health After Addiction

At Boston Medical Center, patients recovering from drug dependencies are getting healthier one meal at a time. For years, the hospital has offered cooking classes for patients with medical conditions such as heart disease. It also runs a food store for poor patients who receive fresh food as part of their treatments. The newest class is “Cooking for Recovery.” It is connected to the spreading belief that many forms of treatment are needed to recover from drug and alcohol dependency, also called addiction.

Michael Botticelli is the head of the medical center’s Grayken Center for Addiction and former director of the government’s Office of National Drug Control Policy. He says, “recovery is not just about stopping the use of alcohol and drugs, it’s about how do we return people to a sense of wellness and a sense of well-being.” On a recent Thursday, cook Tracy Burg taught patients how to make a meal of chicken and vegetables.

“Mood enhancers” — vegetables and whole grains — sat on the side on one side of the table. “Mood depressors” — foods with a lot of sugar — sat on the other side. Good healthy eating is often forgotten during recovery, Burg said. And many addicts desire sugary foods that affect the same areas of the brain as drugs, she said. This can lead to rising and falling blood sugar levels, depression and possible return to drug use. Burg said many addicts have serious stomach problems because much of the organ’s healthy bacteria have been destroyed. She teaches that eating fiber can improve bacteria health.

Các lớp học nấu ăn có mục đích phục hồi sức khỏe sau khi nghiện
Tại Trung tâm Y tế Boston, bệnh nhân phục hồi từ những người phụ thuộc ma túy đang nhận được một bữa ănkhỏe mạnh hơn tại một thời điểm. Trong nhiều năm, bệnh viện đã cung cấp các lớp học nấu ăn cho những bệnh nhân có bệnh như bệnh tim. Nó cũng chạy một cửa hàng thực phẩm cho những bệnh nhân nghèo nhận được thực phẩm tươi sống như một phần của phương pháp điều trị của họ. Lớp học mới nhất là “Nấu ăn để phục hồi”. Nó được kết nối với niềm tin lan truyền rằng nhiều hình thức điều trị là cần thiết để phục hồi từ sự phụ thuộc thuốc và rượu, cũng được gọi là nghiện.

Michael Botticelli là người đứng đầu Trung tâm Y tế Grayken của Trung tâm Y tế và là cựu giám đốc Văn phòng Chính sách Kiểm soát Thuốc Quốc gia của chính phủ. Ông nói, "phục hồi không chỉ là ngăn chặn việc sử dụng rượu và ma túy, mà còn là cách chúng ta đưa mọi người trở lại với cảm giác khỏe mạnh và cảm giác hạnh phúc." Vào một ngày thứ Năm gần đây, nấu ăn Tracy Burg đã dạy cho bệnh nhân cách làm một bữa ăn gà và rau.



"Chất tăng cường tâm trạng" - rau và ngũ cốc nguyên hạt - ở một cạnh bên của bàn. “Những người trầm cảm tâm trạng” - những thức ăn có nhiều đường - ngồi ở phía bên kia. Ăn uống lành mạnh thường bị lãng quên trong quá trình phục hồi, Burg nói. Và nhiều người nghiện ham muốn thức ăn ngọt có ảnh hưởng đến cùng khu vực của não như thuốc, cô nói. Điều này có thể dẫn đến tăng lượng đường trong máu và giảm, trầm cảm và có thể trở lại sử dụng ma túy. Burg cho biết nhiều người nghiện có vấn đề dạ dày nghiêm trọng vì nhiều vi khuẩn khỏe mạnh của cơ quan đã bị phá hủy. Cô dạy rằng ăn chất xơ có thể cải thiện sức khỏe vi khuẩn.

Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. For many Americans it is the most important holiday apart from Christmas. Schools, offices and most businesses close for Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation.

Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620 the ship the Mayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims. They arrived at the beginning of a very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died. But in the following summer Native Americans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could save food for the next winter. They held a big celebration to thank God and the Native Americans for the fact that they had survived.

Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days.

The most important part of the celebration is a traditional dinner with foods that come from North America. The meal includes turkey, sweet potatoes (also called yams) and cranberries, which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly. The turkey is filled with stuffing or dressing, and many families have their own special recipe. Dessert is pumpkin made into a pie.

On Thanksgiving there are special television programs and sports events. In New York there is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march through the streets with large balloons in the shape of imaginary characters. Thanksgiving is considered the beginning of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop for Christmas presents.

Which of the following is not true?

A. Thanksgiving was originally celebrated by the first, Europeans in North America to thank God for their survival.

B. Christmas comes less than a month after Thanksgiving.

C. In the US, Thanksgiving is not a national holiday; it's a religious holiday.

D. The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is colourful and exciting.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

FIRST TIME IN THE AIR

When John Mills was going to fly in an aeroplane for the first time, he was frightened. He did not like the idea of being thousands of feet up in the air. “I also didn’t like the fact that I wouldn’t be in control,” says John. “I’m a terrible passenger in the car. When somebody else is driving, I tell them what to so. It drives everybody crazy.”

However John couldn’t avoid flying any longer. It was the only way he could visit his grandchildren in Canada.

“I had made up my mind that I was going to do it, I couldn’t let my son, his wife and their three children travel all the way here to visit me. It would be so expensive for them and I know Tom’s business isn‟t doing so well at the moment – it would also be tiring for the children – it’s a nine-hour flight!” he says.

To get ready for the flight John did lots of reading about aeroplanes. When he booked his seat, he was told that he would be flying on a Boeing 747, which is better known as a jumbo jet. “I needed to know as much as possible before getting in that plane. I suppose it was a way of making myself feel better. The Boeing 747 is the largest passenger aircraft in the world at the moment. The first one flew on February 9th 1969 in the USA. It can carry up to 524 passengers and 3.400 pieces of luggage. The fuel for aeroplanes is kept in the wings and the 747’s wings are so big that they can carry enough fuel for an average car to be able to travel 16,000 kilometres a year for 70 years. Isn‟t that unbelievable? Even though I had discovered all this very interesting information about the jumbo, when I saw it for the first time, just before I was going to travel to Canada, I still couldn‟t believe that something so enormous was going to get up in the air and fly. I was even more impressed when I saw how big it was inside with hundreds of people!”

The biggest surprise of all for John was the flight itself. “The take-off itself was much smoother than I expected although I was still quite scared until we were in the air. In the end, I managed to relax, enjoy the food and watch one of the movies and the view from the window was spectacular. I even managed to sleep for a while!

Of course,” continues John, “the best reward of all was when I arrived in Canada and saw my son and his family, particularly my beautiful grandchildren. Suddenly, I felt so silly about all the years when I couldn‟t even think of getting on a plane. I had let my fear of living stop me from seeing the people I love most in the world. I can visit my son and family as often as I like now!”

Question: How did John feel about his fears in the end?

A. He thought he had wasted time being afraid

B. He realized it was okay to be afraid.

C. He hoped his grandchildren weren‟t afraid of flying.

D. He realized that being afraid kept him safe.

Gay Community Calls for End to US Policy Banning Blood Donations

 

Members of the gay community in the U.S. are calling for the lifting of a federal ban on blood donations by gay.

After this week's shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, thousands of homosexuals lined up to donate blood to survivors. However, they were turned away because of U.S. government rules that prohibit gay men from giving blood.

 
 

In the wake of the shootings, the policy is causing anger and outrage among gays.

 
 

The policy was put in place in the 1980s during the AIDS epidemic, and it barred gay and bisexual men from donating blood out of fear that they were at high risk of being HIV-positive and could contaminate the blood supply.

 
 

Public health advocates, who argued for lifting the blood donation ban last year, say the policy does not keep pace with some recent scientific developments to safeguard the blood supply against HIV.

 
 

Sean Cahill, director of health policy research at the Fenway Institute in Boston, said the revised policy is still unfair.

 
 

According to Cahill, the so-called nucleic acid test is now available to detect the presence of HIV in a pint of blood in less than two weeks, compared with the months it used to take. The test is performed on all blood samples to make sure they don't contain the virus.

Các thành viên của cộng đồng đồng tính ở Mỹ đang kêu gọi cho việc dỡ bỏ lệnh cấm liên bang về hiến máu của người đồng tính.
Sau khi chụp trong tuần này tại một hộp đêm đồng tính ở Orlando, Florida, hàng ngàn người đồng tính xếp hàng để hiến máu để sống sót. Tuy nhiên, họ bị từ chối bởi vì các quy tắc của chính phủ Hoa Kỳ cấm đàn ông đồng tính từ hiến máu.Trong sự trỗi dậy của các vụ nổ súng, chính sách này đang gây ra sự giận dữ và phẫn nộ về những người đồng tính.Chính sách này đã được đưa ra vào những năm 1980 trong đại dịch AIDS, và nó bị cấm đàn ông đồng tính và lưỡng tính từ hiến máu chỉ vì sợ rằng họ có nguy cơ cao bị nhiễm HIV dương tính và có thể gây ô nhiễm nguồn cung cấp máu.Bảo vệ sức khỏe công cộng, người ủng hộ cho dỡ bỏ lệnh cấm hiến máu năm ngoái, nói rằng chính sách này không bắt kịp với một số phát triển khoa học gần đây để bảo vệ các nguồn cung cấp máu chống lại HIV.Sean Cahill (đây là tên riêng), giám đốc nghiên cứu chính sách y tế tại Viện Fenway ở Boston, cho biết các chính sách đã được điều chỉnh vẫn không công bằng.Theo Cahill, xét nghiệm acid nucleic cái gọi là bây giờ đã có để phát hiện sự hiện diện của HIV trong một nửa lít máu trong vòng chưa đầy hai tuần, so với các tháng nó được sử dụng để thực hiện. Xét nghiệm này được thực hiện trên tất cả các mẫu máu để đảm bảo chúng không chứa virus.

Read the article about a type of art. Are the sentences true or false? Write T or F.

When we think of art, we normally picture something which can exist for centuries. But there has always been a type of art which doesn't last. This is often referred to as 'temporary' art. Sculptures which are made of snow or ice, paintings in coloured sand, chalk drawings done on public pavements: it's not that these don't have artistic value, but they are designed to disappear.

Jorge Rodríguez-Gerada is a modern 'temporary' artist, and one who gets a lot of attention for his work. He uses groups of volunteers to help him, and his pieces take a long time to plan and create. But they are mostly talked about because the final results are so impressive. For the past few years, Rodríguez-Gerada has been creating gigantic faces in empty spaces in cities. To people on the ground, it looks like a garden, and it is hard to see any kind of design in it. In fact, GPS mapping is used to set out the design. Then an army of workers use this master plan to create the image which the artist has planned.

In 2014, the artist created an astonishing face on the National Mall in Washington, DC. It covered an area of 25,000 square metres, and it was created because the mall was getting new gardens, and the land wasn't going to be used for a while. The portrait was of a young man of mixed race, and was called Of the Many, One. The artist says that it showed one of the millions of faces that represent the American people. After a while, the sand and soil of the portrait were mixed together, and new lawns were planted in its place. The portrait has disappeared, but it will not easily be forgotten.

1 Temporary art is a new kind of art.

2 Artists use sand or chalk in their artwork so that it will exist for a long time.

3 Jorge Rodríguez-Gerada is an important artist in the field of temporary art.

4 His work is very quick to create.

5 He uses maps to plan his artwork.

6 A lot of people help him to create his art.

7 Jorge's artwork called Of the Many, One was part of a new garden design for the National Mall.

8 The artwork does not exist anymore.

Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. For many Americans it is the most important holiday apart from Christmas. Schools, offices and most businesses close for Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation.

Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620 the ship the Mayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims. They arrived at the beginning of a very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died. But in the following summer Native Americans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could save food for the next winter. They held a big celebration to thank God and the Native Americans for the fact that they had survived.

Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days.

The most important part of the celebration is a traditional dinner with foods that come from North America. The meal includes turkey, sweet potatoes (also called yams) and cranberries, which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly. The turkey is filled with stuffing or dressing, and many families have their own special recipe. Dessert is pumpkin made into a pie.

On Thanksgiving there are special television programs and sports events. In New York there is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march through the streets with large balloons in the shape of imaginary characters. Thanksgiving is considered the beginning of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop for Christmas presents.
