【推荐1】Many people give up desserts because they want to adopt a healthier lifestyle.     1     The secret lies in the amount of dessert you eat. So don’t give up dessert. Go ahead and have a bit of chocolate cake as you like.

    2    A pie or salad out of blueberries or strawberries is good for your heart. The fiber (纤维素) in fruit is also good for your digestion. So make a fruit salad, or add berries or other fresh fruit to low-fat Greek yogurt for a dessert, which will help you eat more fruit.

If you love chocolate, don’t worry, it loves you back.     3    And the darker it is, the more benefits it contains. Just a few bites of chocolate may reduce your risk of heart disease. That’s because the antioxidants (抗氧化物) in dark chocolate could reduce your blood pressure.

Always in the mood for something sweet?     4     Having a bite of ice cream after a meal will keep you energetic for a long time. Saying no to dessert is actually a mistake that people who are on a diet commonly make. Sweets can be a part of healthy eating, as long as it is eaten in the right amount.

Have you ever eaten a piece of cake that made you feel happy? It’s true. You get that feeling because foods help your body produce a chemical that contributes to your feelings of happiness. So, go ahead and eat your aunt’s apple pie or your grandma’s cookies.     5    

【推荐3】Everyone needs a healthy diet plan. This is especially important when we are first making the change to a new food lifestyle. 1 say lifestyle, because diets just don't work. You will always find yourself struggling as long as you think of your eating habits based on a diet rather than a lifestyle.

What you eat will be determined from what you believe about health and nutrition. If you believe there is no connection between health and the food you eat, you will eat whatever "tastes right" to you, no matter what it is doing to your health. However, if you believe that the human body is an unbelievable self-healing （自愈的）machine that only requires the right fuel （nutrition） to maintain health, then you will choose your foods thus.

A healthy diet plan must be based on what is best for your body. If you are concerned about your taste buds（味蕾）,don't worry they will catch up. They have likely been programmed to think they want fats and salts. It may be hard for you to imagine doing without all those processed foods you've been eating. But it won't be long after you start following a healthy diet plan that your taste buds will long for what is really good for you.

It will take some time for your body to acclimate to your new diet plan, just as developing any new positive habit does. But trust me, your body knows what it needs. Once you start feeding it the nutrition it requires, your body, including your taste, will respond positively.

The healthy diet plan we advise is one that includes as much whole, raw food as possible. Our personal meal planning includes a lot of raw food, whole foods and little to no animal products. Our meal plans include as many dark green and other brightly colored vegetables as possible.

The final tip I have for you as you make the change to a healthy diet meal plan is knowledge, knowledge, knowledge. Having the right knowledge will be one of your keys to success.

Max, seven, and Lenny, four, have been away from their friends since coronavirus physical-distancing rules came into force and the Victorian school holidays were brought forwards a week. They’re just two of the many children who have been spending their shutdown time drawing rainbows (彩虹) and encouraging messages like “We’re all in this together” across Australia. “It was something for the kids to make them feel connected to other people, because obviously they’re feeling a little bit uncertain about staying at home and what this means, and not being able to go to the playground and the park,” Ms Turner said.

Ms Turner first saw the idea when she was added to a Facebook group called the Rainbow Trail, which documents children and their parents drawing rainbows for others to spot. Ms Turner, a lawyer who has been spending much of her time working from home amid the shutdown measures, said it was “something positive to talk about” with the family. “You’re not breaking any of the social-distancing rules but it’s something that you can do and you can be happy and show that there’s a connection.”

University of Melbourne public health researcher Lisa Gibbs said it was important to provide children with age-appropriate ways to make them feel active and capable during the pandemic. “It’s easy in times of danger, which essentially this is, to be so concerned with protecting children, which obviously is of great importance,” Professor Gibbs said. “But in protecting children we can sometimes treat them as vulnerable (脆弱的), which makes them feel useless. So these sorts of activities are really helpful in providing a sense of agency in children that they can make a contribution to others.”

Professor Gibbs said in times of disaster, two patterns were very common — community mobilization, where people banded together, and community deterioration (恶化), where social supports fell apart. “So what these activities from children are doing is really contributing to social mobilization,” she said. “And people respond really positively to children’s messages, because they spread joy.”

【推荐3】Do we still need cash? The days of holding notes in our hands may be numbered. The advancement of technology and the increase of new electronic and mobile device in today’s world is set to revolutionize how we make payments. With a swipe (刷) or a click of a mobile-phone app, our entire wealth is literally at our fingertips. As digital forms are increasingly replacing cash payments, some think that we should become fully cash-free. However, I do not believe we should move towards a completely cash-free society.

One of the main concerns of a cashless world is the risk of cheat and ridiculously, the inconvenience that follows. The instant content that accompanies cashless transactions (处理) could be compromised by online security issues. Technology experts argue that our current state of technology is unable to provide a secure cashless environment that could prevent people from accessing the system illegally and abusing the personal data. In addition, many online shopping sites lack strong systems that would protect their customers’ personal credentials (可信). Occasionally, when an account is “locked” due to a suspected cheating activity, having cash in hand becomes critical. In a cashless society, a victim of cheating would find himself locked out of his account and unable to access his money until the case is solved. Going cash-free causes great inconvenience in this case.

Another reason is that mankind might potentially become less thrift (节俭的). Paying in cash causes a psychological pain on consumers so that they are more cautious in their spending. As it is, cashless payments have already eased that pain somewhat. Thus, an even more careless digital payment could make us much less thrift.

The idea of cashless society is a very real, or even an exciting one. However, to safeguard the interests of all users, it is better to soften our enthusiasm — perhaps to be a less-cash society rather than a completely cashless one is a more working option.
