Developing healthy eating habits starts from childhood,therefore it is important for parents to teach and provide children with a healthy diet.DPHSS administrator of the Bureau of Nutrition Services,Charlie Morris told KUAM News,"A healthy diet for a child consists of a lot of fruits and vegetables in the diet limiting the amount of simple sugars in the diet and high fat food and highly processed(加工的) food."
This means staying away as much as possible from food such as chips,cookies,candies and sugary drinks,as all children need to have meals which involve a well-balanced diet.Community nutritionist(营养学家) Thelma Romoso said,"The fruit,the vegetable,the grain,the protein,and also the milk,the diary product,so for the fruits it's easy for a mother to go into the two plus three concept of fruits and vegetables or five a day."
This concept means that there are at least two servings of fruits a day,three servings of vegetables a day which can be served for lunch and dinner.As for protein parents can make a variety of dishes from chicken,beef,fish or even dried beans to make sure the child gets three servings a day.
Morris said that the child's hunger level controls how much is eaten and the parent controls what and when the meal is offered,saying,"Mom needs to ensure that the food offered is good food for the child to eat and throughout the day depending on how active they are,snacks(零食) are not a bad thing,so the mom should offer good kinds of snacks."
When it comes to preparing your child's lunch and snacks for school,make sure to keep in mind that the food you provide should not only be a source of energy but also be nutritionally beneficial such as fresh fruits,and whole grain bread.But parents must be sure to remember that a good nutritional diet must be balanced with physical activity,namely it is important that children get outside and run around and play and get activity in addition to eating a good diet.

【推荐1】How to keep a good figure may be important to you. In fact, your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.
Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(自觉的)when they're in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn't have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites(食欲). In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it's time to repaint, go blue.
Don't forget the clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you're at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help to decelerate, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake jumps by 14 percent. And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.

Even many adults who do not fit the clinic definition of obesity are still overweight,and a large percentage are looking for the best ways to lose weight.
Reducing pounds largely comes down to the two-sided factors of diet and exercise.Not carrying out the first one enough,and not getting enough of the second one,ends up giving the individual a recipe for being overweight.
Advising someone to eat less and exercise more might be the easiest advice possible,but it’s also,partially,an oversimplification.Dieting has more to do with the types of food you eat than how much you eat.Reduce the amount of red meat in your diet.If you don’t want to eliminate red meat altogether,choose cuts of meat with less fat content.Limit your intake of salt and starches.If you’ve got to have potato chips alongside your sandwich at lunch,choose the baked potato chips that contain less fat than the deep-fried chips.You might find you’re really not sacrificing that much in terms of taste.
A diet rich in fruits,vegetables,egg whites,fish and nonfat dairy products will certainly aid in the mission of losing weight.Drink more water and less sugary drinks.If you have to have a soda,a diet soda is a better option,but seltzer is an even better choice than that.
It’s important—if not always easy—to make sure you get at least some physical activity each and every day.If your feet won’t allow for a regular jogging regimen,then make sure you take lots of walks.Next time you need to mail a letter,walk to the mailbox instead of driving.Try to work in a daily walk in your neighborhood.

The UK doesn’t have the best reputation regarding food waste. Luckily, it’s easy to learn how to change these unsustainable habits, so that you can easily reduce unnecessary waste and save a pretty penny.
1. Plan your meals
When you don’t have a clear idea of what you want to eat, it’s easy to pick up more than you need, especially when items are on offer. It might seem like a great short-term option, but it can cause you to spend much more money in the long term, resulting in unnecessary food waste.
Planning your meals for the week in advance can be a great way to avoid this issue altogether. Work out what you plan to eat and when, and how much. Whether you’re shopping online or in- person, you can get only what you need — both saving your money and reducing the potential for food waste.
2. Store your products correctly
There are many tips that can help to keep produce fresh. For example, potatoes, carrots and other root vegetables last longest if they are kept in the dark. Fresh fruit and vegetables, like grapes, shouldn’t be kept with ethylene-producing products (including bananas and apples) as they make other fresh produce ripen and rot more quickly.
You can also find many ways to keep food by using water. For example, store half cut vegetables, such as carrots, potatoes, in water in the fridge, to help them last longer than if they were stored dry.
3. ____________________
Almost three quarters of food wasted could still be eaten, meaning that the food is not spoiled, and is fine for consumption.
Many people aren’t aware “best before” dates are suggestions, rather than rules. In contrast, however, the “use by” date refers to the last date a food is fit for consumption, and should be watched carefully for safety. When it comes to consuming food, use your senses: look at and smell the food. If it smells good and looks fine, the produce is more than likely completely fit to be eaten and enjoyed.

【推荐1】One of the most outspoken supporters that I know of women and girls is actually a man. As co-founder of the ONE Campaign, my friend Bono spends a lot of time speaking out against global poverty(贫困). Together, we’re working to get out a simple, powerful message: poverty is sexist.
Women and girls are more likely to be in poverty, less likely to get an education and more likely to suffer bad health. And when they are born into poverty, it is much more difficult for them to lift themselves and their families out of it.
Why? One reason is that breaking out of poverty takes time--and that is a resource women around the world are short of. On average, women spend about twice as much time as men in doing the unpaid work that makes life possible for everyone, like cooking, washing, cleaning, shopping and caring. In developing countries, the gap is even much bigger. As a result, women have no time to finish their education, learn new skills, open a business, develop personal relationships or even go to the doctor. They dream of creating a better future for their children, but they cannot spare the hours to put those dreams that they have into action.
The fact that the possibility of so many women and girls is going unrealized is a sad thing-- but it is also an opportunity for us. We need to recognize, reduce and redistribute the burden of work that is holding them back because if women have time to invest in themselves and their ideas, they could change the world.

【推荐2】China’s popular “Singles’Day”, better known as “Double Eleven”, started out as a day to celebrate singles symbolized by the four number ones on the date of November 11.
With time that meaning has changed. In 2009, China’s e-commerce leader Alibaba set the day as a lucky shopping day for online sales as the date was both easy to remember and perfectly timed as it hit between the consumer spending lull (间歇) between National Day and Chinese New Year. It soon became a hit, and Double Eleven became a buying frenzy (疯狂) spread across the world’s second largest economy.
In 2019, the Double Eleven Shopping Festival entered its eleventh year. During this decade, Alibaba, Chinese e-commerce giant, and other e-commerce platforms, together with consumers, have co-created a very big shopping event whose heat has swept the world. Foreign readers share their ideas on Singles’ Day in China:
GhostBuster (UK) I think Double Eleven is unbelievable. It is not a religious festival that people of the same religion but living in different countries share. As an e-commerce faithful fan, I really love the shopping festival.
Emanreus (Australia) I work in Shanghai. Many of my young female colleagues are still single. They simply haven’t time to date, as they tend to work long hours then travel two hours by subway to get to and from work. Single’s Day is a day when they give themselves a treat with online shopping.
BlondeAmber (Ireland) There is not hing to be proud of to be in a country that spends so much online on a particular day. It does nothing more than show the superficiality (肤浅) of the temporary pleasure of shopping, and produces nothing more than a mountain of environmental waste. I bet there is plenty of buyers’ deep regret after this day.
Ionstar (US) Singles Day became a big deal for Valentine’s Day not for the singles! Well, Alibaba’s 11. 11 has become more famous and important than that of Black Friday and Cyber Monday!
1. Alibaba set the festival on November 11 mainly because ________.A.it is a traditionally lucky day |

D.it comes right between two consumer spending festivals |

【推荐3】The problem of robocalls has gotten so bad that many people now refuse to pick up calls from numbers they don’t know. By next year, half of the calls we receive will be scams(欺诈). We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately, it’s too little, too late. By the time these “solutions”(解决方案) become widely available, scammers will have moved onto cleverer means. In the near future, it’s not just going to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt. Soon you will also question whether the voice you’re hearing is actually real.
That’s because there are a number of powerful voice manipulation(处理) and automation technologies that are about to become widely available for anyone to use. At this year’s I/O Conference, a company showed a new voice technology able to produce such a convincing human -sounding voice that it was able to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection.
These developments are likely to make our current problems with robocalls much worse. The reason that robocalls are a headdache has less to do with amount than precision. A decade of data breaches(数据侵入) of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mother’s name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, they’re able to carry out individually targeted campaigns to cheat people. This means, for example, that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number and talk to you using a voice that sounds exactly like your bank teller’s, ttricking you into “confirming” your address, mother’s name, and card number. Scammers follow money, so companies will be the worst hit. A lot of business is still done over the phone, and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships. Voice manipulation technologies may weaken that gradually.
We need to deal with the insecure nature of our telecom networks. Phone carriers and consumers need to work together to find ways of determining and communicating what is real. That might mean either developing a uniform way to mark videos and images, showing when and who they were made by, or abandoning phone calls altogether and moving towards data-based communications—using apps like Face Time or WhatsApp, which can be tied to your identity.
Credibility is hard to earn but easy to lose, and the problem is only going to be harder from here on out.
