Health rganizatins such as the UK’s natinal health services recmmend that adults take 10 micrgrams, r 400 internatinal units (IU) f vitamin D every day, while the Natinal Institutes f Health advise that mst adults take 600 IU, with bth bdies cautining against taking mre than 4,000 IU per day. Having t much vitamin D can cause a build-up f calcium (钙) in the bld, leading t symptms such as nausea and kidney stnes.
But Patrick J. LaRiccia at the University f Pennsylvania and his clleagues recently fund that a daily dse (一剂) f 5,000 IU may reduce the risk f influenza-like symptms. They wndered whether this higher-than-recmmended dsage may als have ther psitive effects.
S the team asked 196 adults t take 5,000 IU f vitamin D3 every day fr abut nine mnths. The adults, aged 47 n average, were aware f the dse they were having. The researchers als analyzed the data f mre than 1,900 peple wh weren’t given the 5,000 IU daily dse f vitamin D. Hwever, they were free t take vitamin D supplements if they wished. Twards the end f the study, acrss this grup, the average reprted dse was 1,318 IU and the average age was 50.
Over 10 mnths, thse n the 5,000 IU dse had a lwer risk f being hspitalized due t any cause, and they had t visit the emergency rm r be admitted t intensive care less than peple in the ther grup. N participants reprted side effects.
Hwever, LaRiccia says the team can’t rule ut the age difference as a pssible cause f these results, with thse in the high-dse grup ptentially aviding hspital because they were n average three years yunger. The natinalities f peple in the tw grups als differed, with fewer Hispanic and Latin peple in the high-dse grup, which may have affected the results.
“The findings are prmising, but the study was relatively small and the study perid was t shrt t mnitr any lng-term safety issues f such a high daily dse f vitamin D,” says JAnn Mansn at Harvard University.
28. Hw much vitamin D des Natinal Institutes f Health recmmend us t take daily?
A. At least 10 IU.B. Less than 400 IU.
C. Rughly 600 IU.D. Over 4,000 IU.
29. Hw did the team carry ut the study?
A. By cmparing and analyzing.B. By referring t previus data.
C. By using supprting examples.D. By explaining the phenmenn.
30. Hw many factrs may have affected the results accrding t LaRiccia?
A. One.B. Tw.C. Three.D. Fur.
31. What is JAnn Mansn’s attitude twards the study?
A. Uncertain.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Favrable.

Archaelgists in Egypt have unearthed a Sphinx statue (狮身人面像) with a smiley face near the Hathr Temple, ne f the cuntry’s best preserved ancient sites. The smiling Sphinx is much smaller than the famus Sphinx in Giza, which is 20 metres high. The stne wrk f art, believed t be a stylized representatin f an ancient Rman emperr, was fund inside a tw-level tmb near the temple in suthern Egypt.
Next t the beautifully and accurately carved Sphinx, researchers had fund a Rman stne written in hierglyph (象形文字). Once fully translated, the stne may unveil the identity f the sculpted ruler, wh culd be Emperr Claudius.

Sme experts see such annuncements as having mre plitical and ecnmic weight than scientific, as Egypt is cunting n turism t revive its vital turism industry in a severe ecnmic crisis. The gvernment aims t draw in 30 millin turists a year by 2028.

Health rganizatins such as the UK’s natinal health services recmmend that adults take 10 micrgrams, r 400 internatinal units (IU) f vitamin D every day, while the Natinal Institutes f Health advise that mst adults take 600 IU, with bth bdies cautining against taking mre than 4,000 IU per day. Having t much vitamin D can cause a build-up f calcium (钙) in the bld, leading t symptms such as nausea and kidney stnes.
But Patrick J. LaRiccia at the University f Pennsylvania and his clleagues recently fund that a daily dse (一剂) f 5,000 IU may reduce the risk f influenza-like symptms. They wndered whether this higher-than-recmmended dsage may als have ther psitive effects.
S the team asked 196 adults t take 5,000 IU f vitamin D3 every day fr abut nine mnths. The adults, aged 47 n average, were aware f the dse they were having. The researchers als analyzed the data f mre than 1,900 peple wh weren’t given the 5,000 IU daily dse f vitamin D. Hwever, they were free t take vitamin D supplements if they wished. Twards the end f the study, acrss this grup, the average reprted dse was 1,318 IU and the average age was 50.
Over 10 mnths, thse n the 5,000 IU dse had a lwer risk f being hspitalized due t any cause, and they had t visit the emergency rm r be admitted t intensive care less than peple in the ther grup. N participants reprted side effects.
Hwever, LaRiccia says the team can’t rule ut the age difference as a pssible cause f these results, with thse in the high-dse grup ptentially aviding hspital because they were n average three years yunger. The natinalities f peple in the tw grups als differed, with fewer Hispanic and Latin peple in the high-dse grup, which may have affected the results.
“The findings are prmising, but the study was relatively small and the study perid was t shrt t mnitr any lng-term safety issues f such a high daily dse f vitamin D,” says JAnn Mansn at Harvard University.
28. Hw much vitamin D des Natinal Institutes f Health recmmend us t take daily?
A. At least 10 IU.B. Less than 400 IU.
C. Rughly 600 IU.D. Over 4,000 IU.
29. Hw did the team carry ut the study?
A. By cmparing and analyzing.B. By referring t previus data.
C. By using supprting examples.D. By explaining the phenmenn.
30. Hw many factrs may have affected the results accrding t LaRiccia?
A. One.B. Tw.C. Three.D. Fur.

A. Uncertain.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Favrable.

Archaelgists in Egypt have unearthed a Sphinx statue (狮身人面像) with a smiley face near the Hathr Temple, ne f the cuntry’s best preserved ancient sites. The smiling Sphinx is much smaller than the famus Sphinx in Giza, which is 20 metres high.
