READING COMPREHENSION
A. Dirty body - healthy body
Do you like to be clean? Italian doctors think it could be
making you sick. "Bathing removes our natural protection from
germs," said Dr. Giancarlo Pagnozzi. "Nature gave us protection, but
we keep washing it away."
 For seven years, researchers studied 300 people. One half took
the bath or shower every day using soap. The other half once a week
in plain water. The super-clean team had several minor illness,
including 876 colds, 167 cases of flu, 49 sore throats, and various
skin diseases. The dirty group had only 29 colds, 3 cases of mind flu,
and one sore throat - but no friends.
B. Pets on prescription
In the future if you go to your doctor with high blood pressure,
he or she prescribe not medicine but a cat or dog. Australian scientists
have found that owing a pet brings lower blood pressure and lower
cholesterol. The results are confirmed by research at Cambridge
University, which showed that people who were given cats and dogs
to look after were ill less often than people who did not have a pet.
Researchers believe that keeping a pet helps because it reduces stress.
C. What's good for the heart might not good for the mind.
Low-fat diets prescribed to reduce heart disease may be bad
for mental health, a report claims. A low level of cholesterol appears
to affect a person's mood and increases the risk of suicide, according
to researchers. The new findings reinforce an earlier US study which
showed a connection between low cholesterol and depression.
Notes:
- germ (n): vi trùng, mầm bệnh
- depression (n): sự chán nản ; suicide (n): sự tự vẫn
- prescribe (v): kê đơn thuốc; prescription (n): đơn thuốc, việc cho

VIII. Reading Comprehension
The nuclear family, consisting of a mother, a father and their
children, may be more an American idea than an American reality. Of
course, the so-called American family was always more varied than
we had been led to believe, reflecting the very different racial, ethnic,
class, and religious customs among American group.
The most recent government statistics reveal that only about
one third of all current American families fit the traditional mold and
another third consists of married couples who either have no children
or have none still living at home. Of the final one, about 20 percent of
the total number of American households is single people, usually
women over sixty-five years old. A small percentage, about 3 percent
of the total, consists of unmarried people who choose to live together,
and the rest, about 7 percent, are single, usually divorced parents,
with at least one child. Today, these varied family types are typical,
and therefore, normal. Apparently, many Americans are achieving
supportive relationships in family forms other than the traditional
one.
