We talk about people being “colour-blind” but very few of us are Even those who describe themselves as colour-blind are normally just colour lack. A strongly colour-blind person will still be able to tell 20 different colour, compared to the 100 or so that normal-sighted people see.
Pingelap, a tiny island in the Pacific, is a beautiful spot but one that has a genetic trouble. It is known as Colour-blind Island because so many people who live on this remote island can only see in black and white.
Not being able to see in colour is bad enough. But one islander, Herrol, who’s a fisherman, also struggles in full sunlight because all be sees is a painful burnt-out image. “I find it difficult to go outside in the sun,” he says, “because when it’s sunny I cannot see to do my work.”
But if being truly colour-blind is rare, why is it that around 10% of the population of Pingelap live in a totally black and white world?
Well, we know that in 1780 the population of Pingelap was all but wiped out by a tsunami(海啸). As few as 20 people survived, one of whom was the king. It’s believed he had a genetic fault that causes colour-blindness and he passed this fault on to his many generations.
There is one advantage. Herrol can see well, really well, in the dark. So when it gets dark, Herrol and his fiends get in their boats and hunt flying fish. They hang up flaming torches and die fish are attracted to the flames.“This type of fishing is fun,” Herrol says, “especially if we catch plenty. So even though it’s hard work we enjoy it.”
32. What is Pingelap famous as? A. A tiny island.

C. A mentally troubled island.
33. What can we infer about Herrol?

Why Because it fits our not-enough-time-in-the-day lifestyles. 36 Well, I’m certainly not the first one to think it-or say it-but we all need to slow down.
Consumer trends around the globe show that over the past three decades people are purchasing more prepared foods at grocery and eating out more than ever before. It’s predicted that we’ll spend more at restaurants in the coming years. 37 However, we’re getting less healthy.
While debates can be seen in different media over die food industry’s contribution to our growing waistlines and our health problems, the bottom line is this: 38 We can choose to eat a fast—food lunch on the go. We can throw a frozen meal in the microwave and call it dinner. We can eat without thinking, in front of the tube, at our computers, and while driving a car.
39 . Studies have shown meaningful links between family meals and kids’ mental and physica I well— being. Eating sensibly doesn’t take much time or money, but it does require you to make a conscious decision to do so. Wrapped in endless work, appointments and social activities, we often fail to enjoy a relaxing meal with our families.
While it can be a challenge to always put healthy eating first, just do your best. Remember that die food you eat has a more significant intact on your health, weight and well-being than almost any other activity you do. 40 Every meal made at home—even just once or twice a week—is a step closer to a healthier body and a slower food lifestyle.
