Nobody's really sure why people go bald, but some scientists believe that people may inherit baldness. If you are interested, check out your mother' father. Your hairline may look like his when you get older. Now listen to this radio phone-in. Complete the following chart.

Radio prenter: All right. Thank you for that call, Romary. We go now, I think, to Glasgow and our next caller, er, Jim Baillie. Hello Jim.
Jim: Hello?
Radio prenter: Hello Jim. What's your problem?
Jim: Er … well I'm er … beginning to lo my hair. Er, I went to the doctor, but he just said there was nothing I can do about it. He said it was probably hereditary. My father was bald by the time he was thirty.
Maurice:澳门语言 Hello, Jim. And how old are you? 向前看
Jim: Me. I'm twenty-eight.
Maurice: And are you losing a lot of hair, then?
Jim: Well, it comes out a lot when I comb my hair and you can e a thin part on the top of my head.
Maurice: And does that really worry you, jim?
Jim: Well. I don't like it. It's old … you know … looks old … I don't want to look like a middle-aged man at twenty-eight. And I wondered if there was some special shampoo I should u … if you could tell me one that I should buy … something like that … you know … to stop it getting wor.
Maurice: Well, you know, Jim, to be honest with you there's not really a lot you can do about it, actually, I'm afraid. I mean, baldness is one of tho things that, in my experience, you just have to try to accept. Some men find it more difficult to accept baldness than others …
Tessa: There is one piece of advice, though, Jim, and that's don't try to comb your hair over the bald or thin patch. Don't try to hide it. Whatever you do, don't comb it over becau
that usually looks ridiculous. And the other thing that usually looks ridiculous is a man with a wig. Don't let anyone persuade you to buy one of tho fal hairpiece things, becau they usually look much wor than a bald man. I actually think bald men can look very attractive. My husband's bald and I think it really suits him.
Part II The digestive system and diarrhea
The human body is a highly complex lf-generator, that is to say, provided it is given the right fuel, it is capable of both curing and warding off dia. The food we eat helps to give us energy. It has a long journey to make before all its goodness has been taken into our body. The food takes up to six hours to be digested in the stomach, depending on the size of the meal. The complete digestive process takes about 24 hours. But sometimes the system can go wrong.
