Preschool Germs Can Be Good

 Parents may have a new reason to feel good about sending their children to preschool this fall. According to a study in this month's Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention journal, children who attend day care or nursery school for at least one year before kindergarten are about 36% less likely than those not in preschool to

develop Hodgkin's lymphoma as young adults. The study's scientists, from the Harvard
School of Public Health, Yale University and Johns Hopkins Medical Institute, suggest that early contact with other kids' germs and exposure to common childhood infections help the immune
13 system mature, making kids less susceptible to this form of cancer later in life. An overall drop in Hodgkin's in the U.S. in recent years may be due to increased preschool attendance.

(From the Aug. 16, 2004 issue of Time magazine)

What can we infer from the text?


Children should go to school early so that they can mature faster.

Scientists consider preschool as the best form for children to get over from childhood infections.

Children should attend nursery school in order to boost their immune system.

Going to kindergarten is said to have reduced the number of Hodgkin’s lymphoma cases.

Hodgkin’s lynphoma is a common cancer among young children.

Rats may help unravel human addiction

Animals have the same compulsive drive for drugs as people

Updated: 6:13 p.m. ET Aug. 12, 2004

WASHINGTON - Rats can become drug addicts. That's important to know, scientists say, and has taken a long time to prove. Now two studies by French and British researchers show the animals exhibit the same compulsive drive for cocaine as people do once they're truly hooked. Only through experiments with addicted animals can scientists eventually learn what makes some people particularly vulnerable to addiction while others can quit at will, addiction specialists say. Addicted rats also could help uncover new anti-drug therapies.

        Through the influence of psycho-analysis we have come to understand that our ideas are certainly not the result of purely objective or external criteria. We are not computers or machines that take in objective data and put out, quite coldly and dispassionately I, some logical response. On the contrary, our very ideas, reflexions, thoughts and notions are clearly influenced or originated by our aspirations hopes, plans, wishes and desires. When this source and origin of a thought is particularly clear, we then speak of "wishful thinking".
        With the intuition peculiar to a genius, Shakespeare, hundreds of years ago, wrote (in his drama Henry IV, Act IV, v. 178): "Thy wishes are father, Harry, to thy thought."

Computers accept the data fed to them and respond by giving a logical answer to what they have received.

Our thoughts are frequently originated in our hopes.

When our thoughts are very clear we term them wishful thinking.

Shakespeare speaks of wishes originating certain thoughts of Harry (or Henry IV).
