When talking to a Westerner, however, you have to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn't be smiling. When a person doesn't like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.
If you ever meet a Westerner who was born in the year of the pig, don't say, "Oh, you're a pig!" Most Westerners will be quite understanding. They will be sure that you made some kind of a mistake. However, don't take any chances. You might just offend someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.
You have to be careful when you talk to a Westerner about pigs because______.
A．they worship pigs best of all
B．they consider pigs as bad animals
C．they aren’t used to talking about pigs
D．they don't like the topic about pigs at all
The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there' “an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good, healthy body weight,” says sleep expert Helene Emsellem, director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase, Maryland. But Americans don't seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours par night. More than 1 in 5 of us, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night, on average.
So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper？ Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young, thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hours a night,” says Brady. Then, a month later, they came back for four additional nights——but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit, researchers got a sample of their fat. Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “I was very surprised to be honest,” he says.
Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin. “Fat cells are actually your friend,” he says. “They're there to store lipids (血脂).” When lipids stay inside the cells, your body can utilize the fat when you're exercising or sleeping or going about your day. “However, when fat cells stare to become insulin resistant, the lipids star to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream,” Brady says.

The official name of the strange animal is the American Bison.However, nearly everyone calls it a buffalo.
In the early days, millions of buffalo moved freely across the continent.They were powerful animals and ran with great speed.The Indians hunted them for food and clothing.
In the 19th century, white men hunted the bison for their skins.They seldom killed the bison for meat.One famous frontiersman, however, Buffalo Bill Cody hunted buffalo for meat.The railroads used the meat to feed their workers.
The American buffalo could run at a speed of almost 75 kilometers an hour.He was difficult to hurt because he was always for a fight.There were times when five or six bullets would not kill him, and buffalo hunters sometimes had a lot of trouble killing the animal.The buffaloes were hard to control and the hunters would get confused or feel helpless.Finally, in the west the expression, to buffalo, came to mean to make one helpless or to confuse and trick.
