【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 of the society. So while people with lower ine and social status have less control and fewer choices in their lives, this is even more the case when the ine gap in the society is very wide. For a long time we have heard people talk about the connection between people?s living conditions and their health. However, until recently there was little hard evidence to support these assumptions. Now, there are research findings demonstrating not only that economic conditions influence health, but also how this happens. 完形填空 Unit 1 We all have weaknesses and strengths — no matter who we are. Sometimes the weaknesses seem to outweigh the strengths and sometimes it?s the other way around. Some people get sick easily. Some struggle to manage their finances properly. Some people are hopeless municators and struggle with relationships. Many people leave it or accept it as just bad luck — but not everyone. Some people facing huge limitations still manage to achieve tremendous things. They rise above their weaknesses and do not allow them to limit their possibilities. It?s your choice. I attended a school prizegiving ceremony not so long ago and the guest speaker was Andrew Becroft, who had a severe stutter as a child. Instead of allowing this to limit him, he chose to work hard to overe it. He is now the Principal Youth Court Judge for New Zealand. No only did he bee successful, but also he did so in a profession where he had to speak in front of others regularly — where his weakness is front and center for all to see. If he hadn?t worked on his speaking ability, it would have been very limiting to his life and career prospects. You can find similar people on New Zealand News channels, and I suspect the same in other countries. There are a number of presenters and reporters who have a noticeably unusual manner of speaking. Perhaps they have a lisp, or they have a peculiar accent or pitch of voice .These people have succeeded in spite of what would be appeared to be a weakness in their profession . Lots of people face far more significant limitations than you do. They may be missing limbs or are born into extreme poverty. But no matter what the limitation, you will always find people who have overe it. Unit 2 I was raised speaking English, but I also spoke Spanish at home. When I went to school for the first time, I was enrolled in ESL classes — classes of English as a Second Language. I was also put in the Limited Proficiency Program. In all these class, I always got the highest grades. I was the best reader and speaker. There was no reason for me to be in any of those classes. When my parents discovered that I was in those classes instead of in regular classes with other Engshisspeaking student, they went to the school administration to plain about the discrimination. The school had nothing to say. My parents tried to get me out of the ESL classes, but the school fought very hard to keep me there. And then we fond out why — for every student the school had in the ESL and Limited English Proficiency Program, they would receive ＄ 400. This was pretty devastating. The school?s only excuse for keeping me there was because I lived in a Spanishspeaking family, and that I was influenced by the way my parents spoke. My parents were indignant, but I remained in the ESL and Limited English Proficiency Program until I was in the fifth
