Regularly spending time in a sauna(桑拿房) may help keep the heart healthy and extend (延長) life,say Finnish scientists in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine.
Researchers from the University of Eastern Finland (UEF) studied 2,300 middle-aged men for an average of 20 years. They divided the men into three groups according to how often they used a sauna each week. Over the course of the study,49% of men who went to a sauna once a week died,compared with 38% of those who went two to three times a week and just 31% of those who went four to seven times a week. Frequent visits to a sauna were also linked with lower death rates from heart disease.
The results don，t surprise Dr. Thomas H.Lee,founding editor of the Harvard Heart Letter. aThe beneficial effects of a sauna have been well documented in the past. It lowers blood pressure,and there is every reason to believe that its effects are good for your heart,” says Dr. Lee.
Sauna use is deeply rooted in Finnish culture. A nation of 5. 5 million people,Finland has as many saunas as television sets — around 3. 3 million. Most of the saunas are in people，s homes,although they’ re also in offices and factories.
The very nature of the Finnish sauna is designed to reduce stress,the researchers say. The sauna has been a gathering place for family and friends for centuries. And a basic sauna rule; which discourages people from discussing controversial topics while bathing,is taught to the Finns during childhood.
The Finnish researchers suggest that saunas may provide similar benefits to exercise because the high temperatures can drive heart rates to levels often achieved by moderate-intensity(中等強度的) physical activities.
So can sitting in a sauna take the place of exercising? “I don't know that I would take a sauna for exercise ,” Dr. Lee says. “But exercising and then taking a sauna seems like a very healthy lifestyle."
32. What do the numbers in Paragraph 2 show?
A. It can be harmfiil to use a sauna too often.
B. Regular sauna users are likely to live longer.
C. Different people have different sauna habits.
D. Saunas may lower death rates from heart disease.
33. What does Dr. Lee think of UEF researchers findings?.
A. They are amazing.
B. They are interesting.
C. They match his expectations.
D. They go against past documents.
34. What do we know about the Finnish sauna?
A. It is easily accessible to the Finns.
B. It encourages people to debate.
C. ft is a completely new lifestyle.
D. It attracts more children than adults.
35. Which may be the best for your health according to Dr. Lee?
A. Having as many saunas as possible.
B. Using a sauna after doing physical activities.
C. Doing physical exercise in high temperatures.
D. Taking moderate-intensity physical exercise.

C
There are around 6,000 living languages in the world — and at least half of these are in danger. In every part of the world,languages are disappearing. In fact,one scientist has said that languages are in more danger of extinction than birds or mammals. Professor Steve Sutherland of the University of East Anglia says that in the past 500 years 4. 5 percent of languages have died out — compared with 1. 3 percent of birds,and 1. 9 percent of mammals.
Languages come and go,and thousands have done exactly that without leaving any trace Only a very few —iasque,Greek and Latin among them — have lasted more than 2,000 years. But it seems that the pace of their disappearance is becoming quicker.
The Ethnologue,a database of all the languages spoken in the world,states that 417 languages are spoken by so few people that they are in the final stages of becoming extinct. If very few people speak a language,it will probably die out.
Languages may be iost through migration(遷移) , as people move from small towns to city centers,or when environments are destroyed by the search for oil or wood. Natural disasters can also devastate populations,and along with them,their language.Governments also play a role in the extinction of languages. The need to establish “official languages”，for a country to educate its children and carry out its business,had a disastrous effect on many small languages.
What is lost if a language is lost? Some people argue that languages die as the human race develops. Obviously there could be great benefits if everyone in the world spoke the same language — some industries already reflect this,with English essential for pilots and air traffic controllers. But there are more important things than convenience. As languages are lost,whole ways of life and knowledge may be lost along with them.
To put it simply,language expresses something about identity,about our place in the world. Ani Rauhihi,a Maori teacher in New Zealand's North Island,sums it up: “If you grow up speaking our language,you won’t know who you are."
28. The figures mentioned in the first paragraph suggest that .
A. most languages have died out completely
B. languages are in great danger of extinction
C. animals are disappearing faster than languages
D. languages are disappearing slower than before
29. The underlined word “devastate” can best,be replaced by “”
A. increase B. control C. destroy D. improve
30. If a language is lost,.
A. there will be great trouble
B. there is no need to worry about it
C. its culture and knowledge will also be lost
D. people will be able to communicate with others conveniently
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Languages reflect our identity.
B. People will speak the same language one day.
C. Fewer people will remember their own languages.
D. Ani Rauhihi cares less about languages dying out.
