A new study estimates more than 1 billion people worldwide are currently living with obesity. People with obesity are considered medically overweight. The study, published in the medical publication The Lancet, said that one in eight people are obese. Researchers said around 43 percent of adults were overweight in 2022. Obesity among adults has more than doubled since 1990. Among young people aged 5 to 19, the obesity rate increased by four times during the same period.
“A staggering number of people are living with obesity, and severe obesity is strongly linked to a long list of health problems and an early death,” declared the lead writer of the study, Majid Ezzati, a professor at Imperial College London.
The WHO noted that at the World Health Assembly in 2022, member states agreed to an agency plan to fight obesity. So far, 31 governments “are now leading the way” to reduce obesity by carrying out goals of the plan.
These include government measures to enact new rules on “harmful” marketing of unhealthy food and drinks to children. In addition, governments are aiming to improve school and nutrition policies. They are also seeking price reductions for healthy foods to increase public awareness about healthy diets and exercise and to strengthen requirements for physical activity in schools.
Imperial College London's Ezzati said that obesity rates are not rising in many wealthier nations. But they are quickly increasing in other countries. He noted that some countries have many underweight people, meaning the nations are facing what he called a “double burden” of nutrition problems.
Branca is head of nutrition at the WHO. He told reporters, “In the past, we have been thinking of obesity as a problem of the rich, but obesity is a problem of the world. Although new obesity drugs - such as Ozempic and Wegovy - could be helpful tools in reducing obesity, they noted that the cost and availability of the drugs might increase inequality.”
24. What does the underlined word “staggering” mean?
A. Satisfying. B. Amazing.
C. Astonishing. D. Puzzling.
25. What is included in the plan led by 31 governments?
A. Setting laws to ban the sale of unhealthy food.
B. Increasing the cost for people to consume healthy food.
C. Attaching importance to physical activity.
D. Offering lower - priced obesity drugs to people.
26. What does Ezzati mean by mentioning the “double burden”?
A. Some countries are suffering both poverty and obesity.
B. Some countries are suffering both poor nutrition and obesity.
C. Obesity is common in both poor and wealthy countries.
D. Obesity is a heavy burden for some countries.
27. What is Branca's attitude to the obesity problem?
A. Negative. B. Indifferent.
C. Ambiguous. D. Optimistic.

Sora, a new AI model developed by the company OpenAI - creator of the chatbot ChatGPT - has recently become a global focus. The text - to - video artificial intelligence technology has the potential to make a revolution in video industries.
Sora can generate videos up to a minute long while maintaining visual quality and respond to user prompts, OpenAI said. It is able to generate complex scenes with multiple characters, specific types of motions, and accurate details of the subject and background.
Liu Xingliang, director of the Beijing - based Data Center of China Internet, said Sora is undoubtedly a major breakthrough for AI. “It not only demonstrates AI's advanced ability to understand and create complex visual content, but also brings about opportunities and challenges for video content creation, entertainment, film and television production industries. The video - generation model will help video content creators to turn their ideas into reality at a faster speed and at a lower cost, and offer audiences richer and more diverse visual experiences,” Liu said, adding that AI is expected to play a more important role in all aspects of human lives in the future.
Meanwhile, the use of text - to - video AI models raises concerns about ethics, copyright protection, personal privacy and data security, experts said. How to ensure the authenticity and transparency of the content has become an important issue, and more efforts are needed to formulate rules and regulations to ensure the healthy development of such technology.
Zhou Hongyi, founder of Chinese company 360 Security Group, said, “Sora might bring a huge disruption to the advertising industry, movie trailers and the short video industry, but it may not necessarily beat TikTok quickly. It is more likely to become a creative tool for TikTok.”
28. According to the text, what is the possible function of Sora?

D
Djukic is a biology and chemistry student. She never thought that one day she would be in a classroom where an English teacher asked her to play a board game in order to learn about climate change.
Debra Rosenthal is the professor of the class. At first, Djukic said she was uncertain about Rosenthal's board game idea. “I was just like: ‘This is interesting, but how much are we actually going to take away from it?’”
Rosenthal thought her students would gain a greater understanding about how their own ideas and experiences affected climate change. Students do not compete against each other. They work together to choose the best plan of action. The game is different from board games such as Monopoly, where the goal is to win. Rosenthal said she hoped the games would give students a chance to talk about climate change in a new way.
“Playing the games is a way to be social, to engage in conversation. There has to be a lot of energy around the table. It's very collaborative. And in the game that I chose to play, they really were able to work together and try to come up with a solution so that the planet was not destroyed.”
During the class, she said, students laughed, disagreed and had to call for votes as a way to decide how to move forward in the game. Djukic said it was a “way to have fun... while also learning about such a serious subject”.
The games are global, Djukic said. That is because she and her classmates said they were able to see how one player's decision about agriculture affected another player on the other side of the world.
She said the games showed her that “in the game of climate change and the climate crisis, no individual wins”. “It's either we all suffer from this, or we all somehow collaborate to work our way out of this and turn the clock back on climate change.”
32. What is the purpose of Rosenthal's class arrangement?
A. To inspire the competition among students.
B. To entertain the students with the board game.
C. To stress the damage caused by climate change.
D. To encourage students' viewpoints about climate change.
33. Which best describes the board game according to paragraph 4?
A. Cooperative. B. Competitive.
C. Creative. D. Exclusive.
34. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Agriculture is of vital importance to the world.
B. The world is a community of shared future.
C. Man with strong will can conquer nature.
D. Climate change is a tough problem to solve.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Climate change calls for teamwork.
B. Climate change leads to the global impact.
C. A board game helps students understand climate issues.
D. A good teacher gives students lifelong benefits.
