I’ll never lose weight --- I come from a fat family
Wrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habits of eating too much and exercise too little.
I am fat because I burn calories slowly
Wrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism（新陈代谢）. If fact, although fat people consume more energy that slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat! Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.
Exercise is boring
Wrong! Anything will become boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do Yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swimming, set yourself a distance or time challenge.
No pain, no gain
Wrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild discomfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If you don’t, rest and seek medical advice.

The anger and lack of concern that a depressed person may have for people close to him or her can be very disturbing to someone who"s trying to help.At such times，the sincerity of a friend or a family member is questioned when the depressed person doesn"t feel worthy of someone"s friendship.Withdrawal from others can make it nearly impossible to encourage a depressed person to enter into activities that may help pull him or her out of the depression.
It is frequently difficult for a depressed person to carry on a conversation.Attempts to help may be met with defensiveness and verbal attacks.While being supportive and understanding，the friend of a family member must be careful not to do too many things for the depressed person.There is a very thin line between being supportive and being overly protective.Too much“doing for” can be a disservice(帮倒忙)．
You can best help a friend or relative who is depressed by considering the following points：
◆Do not moralize.Don"t pressure him or her to “put on a happy face，” or to “snap out of it.” Often the person will feel even worse after hearing such words.
◆When you are alone with your depressed friend，you might say something like，“I"ve noticed lately that you seem down.I care about you and would like to listen to what you"re thinking about.” Then be a good listener.
◆Don"t say，“I know exactly how you feel.” You probably don"t.But if you"ve had similar experiences，sharing those may help.Say things like，“This happened to me.It might help you.” Or “I know some of what you must be feeling.”
◆Urge him or her to get professional help if necessary.Offer to accompany your friend on the first visit if it will be easier for the person.

The findings agree with the research suggesting all that inactive sitting and always watching advertisements may lead to poor eating habits.
Researchers used results from a long-term study of children who took part in the surveys every two years. Children were between ages 9 and 16 when the study started. Out of 4,300 girls in the study, 17 percent were overweight or obese（肥胖的）. Twenty-four percent of the 3,500 boys were also above a healthy weight.
The surveys included questions about their height and weight as well as how much time they spent watching TV and DVDs and playing computer and video games.
From one survey to the next, each one-hour increase in children’s daily TV watching was in connection with an increase of about 0.1 points on a body mass index (BMI)（体质指数）, which measures weight in connection with height. There’s an increase of about half a pound in weight per extra hour of TV.
“The weight of the evidence is so strong that television watching is connected with unhealthy changes in weight among youth,” says Jennifer Falbe, who led the study while at the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.
“It"s important for parents to know that all the obesity-causing（引起肥胖的）screens really should be limited in their children"s lives.” Falbe says. “When children watch TV, there are many food advertisements on TV that might lead them to eat a cookie or drink a soft drink.” What"s more, she says, “they can get into a hibernating(冬眠) state on the sofa, even if children are sitting down while playing a computer game.”
小题1:Which of the following statements can be the best title for the text?
| A．A new study on screens. |
| B．TVs do harm to children. |
| C．The less TV time, the fatter. |
| D．Too much screen time leads to obesity. |
| A．4,300 | B．3,500 |
| C．7,800 | D．9,800 |
fatter.
| A．0.1 | B．0.5 |
| C．0.3 | D．0.7 |
| A．Limiting the time of children watching TV. |
| B．Buying children food advertised on TV. |
| C．Not allowing children to watch TV. |
| D．Encouraging children to play computer games. |

| Teaching kids to fish sometimes puzzles us parents. Now I"d like to give you a few tips. First of all, start them young. Get them in a boat, or on the bank at as early an age as you possibly can. This means paying close attention to their safety. Whatever you do, DON"T plan on any fishing yourself. If fishing is going to happen, the fishing will be done by the kids with your help! This lets you pay attention to them and not ignore (忽略) them while you fish. Next, choose places where you can catch a lot of fish easily. At this point, it doesn"t matter what kind or how big; just make sure they can catch some. A small child"s patience (耐心) is very short, and waiting 30 minutes for a bite will turn them off in a hurry. You may need to go to a small pond (池塘) where the fish are dying to eat bread balls. Any type of fish will do. Remember, this is for them, not for you. Cheer for every fish they catch as they fish. Take pictures. And if it"s possible, take some home. Let the child help you clean with a table knife, so he can"t get hurt. Make sure he makes and sees the connection from catching to cleaning to cooking. Let him see the fish cooking, and talk about how good they are. Then when it"s ready, make sure you talk proudly about the fact that he or she has caught these fish, and "aren"t they good?" In this way, I"m sure your kids will be interested in fishing and good at fishing. | |||||||||||||
