More than I had dreamed of
From the time I was seven，I had a dream of becoming a member of the students' union.I always（1）　 　 my school leaders for taking responsibility for all of us.So I dreamed of being a leader.

8．Processed foods like chips，soda and frozen pizzas are full of salt，sugar and fat.Now scientists are trying to understand if there is something else about such foods that may be bad for humans.Scientists have already linked low﹣cost， （1）　 　 foods to rising obesity rates around the world.Three recent studies offer more （2）　 　 on how our increasingly industrialized food supply may be affecting our health.
What does processed food （3）　 　 ？
The researchers created a system that places foods into four groups.The system says highly processed foods are made （4）　 　 of industrialized materials and additives.Sodas，packaged cookies，instant noodles and chicken nuggets are some examples of highly processed foods.But also included are products that can （5）　 　 healthy，such as morning cereals，energy bars and some kinds of yogurt.
What's wrong with processed foods？
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health conducted a four﹣week study involving 20 people.They found that people eat about 500 more calories a day when （6）　 　 mostly processed foods.That is compared with when the （7）　 　 people were given less processed foods.The researchers permitted the 20 participants to eat as much or as little as they wanted.They were taken to a medical center so their health and behavior could be （8）　 　 .
In another study，researchers in France found people who ate more processed foods were more likely to have heart disease.A similar study in Spain linked eating more processed foods to a higher risk of death （9）　 　 .
What is it about processed foods？
When given less processed foods，people in the study （10）　 　 more of a hormone that controls hunger，and less of a hormone that causes hunger.The reason for the （11）　 　 is not clear.The scientists also found that people ate processed foods more quickly.
Kevin Hall is one of the researchers who led the study.He told the AP that processed foods are （12）　 　 softer and easier to chew and swallow.Hall noted the source of nutrients might （13）　 　 .For example，fiber from whole fruits and vegetables may be better for making people feel full than fiber added to packaged foods such as energy bars and yogurt.
What should you eat？
Avoiding processed foods can be hard， （14）　 　 for people with limited time and money.Processed foods can also take many forms. （15）　 　 companies continually re﹣engineer products to make them seem healthier.The newest studies may provide more reasons to avoid processed foods.But，they also call attention to the difficulty of coming up with ways to do that.

Love Is Blind：The Magic of Tabby
In October，2003，I started my work at my local animal shelter's Adoption Department.Over the years，more than 50，000 animals have（1）　 　 the doors of the shelter.Most of them，I do not remember.But occasionally there are special animals，who touch me so deeply that I could never possibly（2）　 　 them.Tabby was one such animal.
Tabby was an ancient Cocker Spaniel，probably 14 years old.What's more，she was blind and deaf.Tabby's chances at adoption seemed（3）　 　 at best.After all，we didn't have many adopters coming in asking，"Can you show me all of your really old dogs who are also（4）　 　 ？"We had all thought that Tabby would live out the rest of her life at the（5）　 　 .
One day a woman named Loretta came to the shelter.Her son，Gary，had（6）　 　 Tabby's picture and stories on the shelter's website at home.They were interested in meeting her!It was the only enquiry we ever received about Tabby.What could a young child possibly see in a 14﹣year﹣old dog who was both blind and deaf？Most boys would want a dog who could grow with them and（7）　 　 through grassy fields on summer days.Tabby would（8）　 　 be able to do that.But after meeting her，Loretta and Gary decided that she was the right dog for their family.They adopted Tabby!
If Tabby's story had simply ended with her（9）　 　 adoption，it would still have been something very special indeed.（10）　 　 ，it was what happened after her adoption that people might regard as "magic".Gary suffered from seizures （癫痫）.Since Gary and Tabby met they became（11）　 　 .They did everything together.They became so "in tune"with one another that Tabby began to telegraph Gary's seizures before they occurred，giving his family a（n）（12）　 　 that one was about to strike.What's more，Gary seemed to be having fewer and fewer seizures since Tabby's（13）　 　 .
How could it be？Nobody could explain（14）　 　 Tabby did it.But those of us who were fortunate enough to know her and her family had（15）　 　 the magic，the kind that has its roots in love.
