A Health Profile A health profile is a portrait of all of the factors that influence your health. To draw your health profile, you will 1 what diseases run in your family, what health hazards you may be exposed to 2 work, how your daily 3 compares to the recommended standards, how much time per week you 4 exercising and what type of exercise you engage 5 , how stressful your work and family environments are, what kinds of illnesses you get regularly, and 6 or not you have any one of a number of addictions. 7 this portrait, you should have a checkup to determine how your blood, heart, and lungs are functioning. This checkup will serve 8 a baseline, to which you can then compare later tests. 9 this profile is thoroughly drawn, you can begin to think about setting health priorities based 10 your particular portrait. For example, if you drink two martinis every evening, have a high-stress 11 , are overweight, smoke a pack of cigarettes a day, and use marijuana occasionally on weekends, you should quit smoking first, followed 12 losing the excess weight, reducing the stress of your job, giving up your marijuana habit, and then finally giving some 13 to those martinis if you want to prevent first cancer, and then heart disease. Even for the youthful working person who has never been sick a day in his life, who is 14 excellent health, a good look at all health habits and at work and home environments may suggest changes that will 15 him in the future.

Many Benefits from Cancer Organization 1. Do you know a child who survived leukemia Do you have a mother, sister or aunt whose breast cancer was found early thanks to a mammogram Do you have a friend or coworker who quit smoking to reduce their risk of lung cancer Each of these individuals benefited from the American Cancer Society’s research program. 2. Each day scientists supported by the American Cancer Society work to find breakthroughs that will take U.S. one step closer to a cure. The American Cancer Society has long recognized that research holds the ultimate answers to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer. 3. As the largest source of nonprofit cancer research funds in the United States, the American Cancer Society devotes over $100 million each year to research. Since 1946, they’ve invested more than $2.4 billion in research. The investment has paid rich dividends. In 1946, only one in four cancer patients was alive five years after diagnosis; today 60 percent live longer than five years. 4. Investigators and health professionals in universities, research institutes and hospitals throughout the country receive grants from the American Cancer Society. Of the more than 1,300 new applications received each year, only 11 percent can be funded. If the American Cancer Society had more money available for research funding, could nearly 200 more applications considered outstanding be funded each year 5. You can help fund more of these applications by participating in the American Cancer Society Relay for Life, a team event to fight cancer. More funding means more cancer breakthroughs and more lives being saved. To learn more, call Donna Hood, chair with the Neosho Relay for Life of the American Cancer Society at 451-4880. A. What Could Be Done with More Money B. Establishment of the American Cancer Society C. Significance of Funded Research D. Other Sources of Funding for Cancer Research E. Benefits Achieved Through Investment F. How You Can Offer Help More cancer breakthroughs can be made with ______.

Pool Watch Swimmers can drown in busy swimming pools when lifeguards fail to notice that they are in trouble. The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents says that on average 15 people drown in British pools each year, but many more suffer major injury after getting into difficulties. Now a French company has developed an artificial intelligence system called Poseidon that sounds the alarm when it sees someone in danger of drowning. When a swimmer sinks towards the bottom of the pool, the new system sends an alarm signal to a poolside monitoring station and a lifeguard’s pager. In trials at a pool in Ancenis, near Nantes, it saved a life within just a few months, says Alistair McQuade, a spokesman for its maker, Poseidon Technologies. Poseidon keeps watching through a network of underwater and overheard video cameras. AI software analyses the images to work out swimmers’ trajectories. To do this reliably, it has to tell the difference between a swimmer and the shadow of someone being cast onto the bottom or side of the pool. "The underwater environment is a very dynamic one, with many shadows and reflections dancing around," says McQuade. The software does this by "projecting" a shape in its field of view onto an image of the far wall of the pool. It does the same with an image from another camera viewing the shape from a different angle. If the two projections are in the same position, the shape is identified as a shadow and is ignored. But if they are different, the shape is a swimmer and so the system follows its trajectory. To pick out potential drowning victims, anyone in the water who starts to descend slowly is added to the software’s "pre-alert" list, says McQuade. Swimmers who then stay immobile on the pool bottom for 5 seconds or more are considered in danger of drowning. Poseidon double-checks that the image really is of a swimmer, not a shadow, by seeing whether it obscures the pool’s floor texture when viewed from overhead. If so, it alerts the lifeguard, showing the swimmer’s location on a poolside screen. The first full-scale Poseidon system will be officially opened next week at a pool in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. One man who is impressed with the idea is Travor Baytis, inventor of the clockwork radio. Baylis runs a company that installs swimming pools, and he was once an underwater escapologist with a circus. "I say full marks to them if this works and can save lives," he says. But he adds that any local authority spending £30,000 plus on a Poseidon system ought to be investing similar amounts in teaching children to swim. The word "considered" in Paragraph 5 could be best replaced by ______.
A. thought
B. rated
