When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951,her mother told her,"Be sure and take a t yping course so when this show business thing doesn't work out,you'll have something to rely on." Mary responded in typical teenage fashion.From that moment on,"the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls. The show business thing worked out,of course.In her career,Mary won many awards.Only recently,when she began to write Growing Up Again,did she regret ignoring her mom," I don't know how to use a computer," she admits. Unlike her 1995 autobiography,After All, her second book is less about life as an award winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病).All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF),an organization she serves as international chairman."I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says." I didn't want to lecture,but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self?controlled and do our part in managing the disease." But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches.In her book,she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago,when she received two pieces of life changing news.First,she had lost the baby she was carrying,and second,tests showed that she had diabetes.In a childlike act,she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈).Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up again-and take control of her diabetes,not let it control her.Only then did she kick her three pack a day cigarette habit,overcome her addiction to alcohol,and begin to follow a balanced diet. Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor,she refuses to fall into self pity."Everybody on earth can ask,'why me' about something or other," she insists."It doesn't do any good.No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache,pain, and disappointments.Sometimes we can make things better by helping others.I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time.I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be." |

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. |
