Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains, if a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention in class. Contrary to what many people believe, if you don’t eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.

BIG!
我刚来美国时,在肿瘤研究所研制一种肿瘤疫苗,已在病人身上试用了,我自认为我的实验技术是很好的。所以有一次我的老板对我说:"The experiment's very big."我随口答道:"No,It's very small for me."老板用奇怪的眼光看着我说:"The vaccine have been tested by patient."(疫苗已给病人试用了)
[回家查辞典,开开big在这里是什么意思]
我突然感到不好意思,赶快回去问美国技术员,他们告诉我这是很重要的意思(important),老板只是告诉我要仔细,我却误会了。
我再去查了字典才知道,这个简单的小字在美国俚语中用法很多,如:big men(重要人物)、make big(飞黄腾达)、go over big(走红)等。
