　　Diabetes（糖屎病）and Eye Damage

　　0vet 2 million Canadians have diabetes.It is the leading cause of blindness in North

　　Americans under 65 years of age Diabetes is a condition where the body either cannot produce

　　enough insulin（胰島素）or cannot respond properly to insulin.Insulin is important because it

　　moves glucose（葡萄糖），a simple sugar.into the body'S cells from the blood.The food people

　　eat provides the body with glucose，which is used by the cells as a source of energy.If insulin

　　isn't available or doesn't work correctly to move glucose from the blood into the cells，glucose

　　will stay in the blood，leading to high blood sugar levels.

　　High blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels，including the tiny blood vessels in the

　　eye.This leads to an eye disease known as diabetic retinopathy（糖尿病型眡網膜病）。The retina

　　（眡網膜）is an area at the back of the eye that changes light into nerve signals.With diabetic

　　retinopathy，some blood vessels in the retina are lost，and some of the other blood vessels begin

　　to“leak''blood This causes the retina to swell.and gradually cuts off its supply of oxygen and

　　nutrients（滋養物）。Eventually，the retina starts to grow new blood vessels to replace the damaged

　　ones.Unfortunately，these new vessels are not as strong as the old ones They are more likely to

　　break，causing bleeding in the eye

　　At first，people with diabetic retinopathy will not notice any symptoms.As the disease gets

　　worse，they may notice blurred（模糊的）vision，black spots or flashing lights.As time goes on，it Can progress to blindness Everyone with diabetes is at risk for diabetic retinopathy，and the risk

　　increases the longer you've had diabetes

　　Fortunately，you can reduce your risk If you do not have diabetes，but think you may be at

　　risk for this condition.visit your doctor to be screened for diabetes.If you d0 have diabetes：

　　Have frequent eye check—ups.

　　Make sure that you monitor your blood sugar frequently and use your medications as

　　recommended by your doctor There is evidence to show that keeping your blood sugar under

　　tight control can slow down eye damage

　　If you have high blood pressure，follow your recommended diet and medications to keep it

　　under control.If you are not sure whether you have high blood pressure，or whether your blood

　　pressure is under control，discuss this with your doctor

　　36 Glucose cannot be turned into energy in the body

　　A without diabetes.

　　B without sugar.

　　C without insulin

　　D without food.

　　37 The word“its”in the second paragraph refers to

　　A “the nerve't

　　B “the blood't

　　C “the eye't

　　D “the retina't

　　38 With diabetic retinopathy，the damaged blood vessels in the retina

　　A are stronger than what they used to be.

　　B cannot be properly replaced.

　　C are more likely to break than the new ones.

　　D may return to normal again

　　39 The worst eye damage induced by diabetes is
