We can see KFC, Burger King, McDonald’s and other fast food restaurants in every city. Fast food is becoming more and more popular in China. At lunch time, it is very difficult to find seats in some fast food restaurants.
Why do so many people like to eat in fast food restaurants? There are a few reasons for it. Firstly, fast food is very quick. You don’t need to wait. Secondly, fast food restaurants also have a very good environment. At last, fast food always tastes delicious.
But we must know it isn’t healthy. So I think people should stop eating too much fast food. Though home cooking takes a lot of time, we can have healthy and delicious meals.
To be healthy,we should eat less fast food. Fast food is only a good choice(选择) when you are in a hurry. We can eat it sometimes but not very often.

People in China have 10 grams of salt a day on average, twice the amount recommended by the WHO, and over the past four decades adults in China have had among the highest salt consumption (消耗) in the world.
Salt intake in China is confirmed to be among the highest in the world, with adults over the past four decades consistently (持续) consuming on average above 10g of salt a day, which is more than twice the recommended limit.
The research group also found that Chinese children aged 3-6 are eating the maximum amount of salt recommended by WHO for adults (5g a day) while older children eat almost 9g/day.
Excess (超量的) salt intake rises blood pressure, a major cause of strokes and heart disease which cause about 40 percent of deaths in the Chinese population.
The team reviewed all data ever published on salt intake in China (which involved about 900 children and 26,000 adults across the country) and found that salt intake has been consistently high over the past four decades, with a North South divide.
While salt intake in northern China is among the highest in the world (11.2g a day), it has been decreasing since the 1980s when it was 12.8g a day, and most markedly since the 2000s.
This could be the result of both governmental efforts in salt awareness (认知) education and the reduced pickled food products.
However, this trend of decrease was not seen in southern China, which has vastly increased from 8.8g a day in the 1980s to 10.2g a day in the 2010s.
This could be due to governmental efforts being mitigated by the growing consumption of processed foods and out-of-home meals.

No one really knows exactly how, when, or where fortune cookies (幸运饼) were invented. One thing is for sure, though. Fortune cookies are not from China. They were created in America. Actually, they may have been inspired by Chinese or Japanese food. Some people think that fortune cookies are like mooncakes, small Chinese cakes with messages inside. Others believe that fortune cookies are similar to a traditional Japanese rice cookie that once had a fortune inside it.
Fortune cookies are so popular that two American cities, San Francisco and Los Angeles, fought over the right to be the “home” of the fortune cookie. In 1983, a trial (审判) was held to decide where the fortune cookie came from. One side argued for David Jung, founder of the Hong Kong Noodle Company in Los Angeles. He said that he has invented the fortune cookie in 1918. The other side argued the cookie was invented by Makoto Hagiwara, a man who ran (运营) the Japanese Tea Garden in San Francisco in the 1890s. In the end, Hagiwara won the trial.
This was no surprise, because the trial was held in San Francisco. People in Los Angeles later held their own trial and decided that their city was the home of the fortune cookie. No matter where fortune cookies are from, it is hard to imagine finishing a meal of Chinese food without opening this sweet, crunch (脆的) cookie and reading its luck message.

Nowadays with the use of at least one social media platform (平台), you are often logged into a few social media accounts (账户) at the same time. Most websites allow social logins through a number of common platforms, such as WeChat and Weibo. So it’s no hard to understand social logins are quite popular today. But is it safe to use a social login? Here’s what you need to know about these helpful online tools.
There are a few benefits of social logins. First, because of social logins, it’s not necessary to remember a password. Second, social logins take less time than it takes to enter a username and password. What’s more, social logins may be connected to payment, such as signing into a newspaper app through Alipay. So many users choose social logins for their speed and convenience over safety.
Is it safe to sign in with a social media account like WeChat? The answer to this depends on your online behavior preferences.
When you use a social login, you’re turning over your data and information to both the social network and the third-party app or the website you’re logging into — though it can be difficult to know exactly what is being shared. As a result, if either of these sources suffers a data breach (泄露), your personal information may be stored or sold without your knowledge.
There are ways to avoid these breaches of personal information. First, make sure to check which platforms are connected to your social media accounts regularly, and take notes of the details you share. Second, change your privacy (隐私) settings on each platform to make sure that you share as little as possible.
In a word, your social logins can be as private and safe as you make them. If you’re already fine with handing your data over to the social media platforms you use, social logins may not be such a big deal for you. The choice is yours, so think about the advantages and disadvantages to make it wisely!

3. When you use a social login, what will happen if there is a data breach?

Right now, more than 80 percent of the world’s energy comes from fossil fuel ( 矿物燃料). Fossil fuel is oil, gas and coal (煤). There are many problems with fossil fuel. One problem is that when fossil fuel is burned, it pollutes the air. Another problem is that we’re running out of it. That’s why we need new energy.
A big source (来源) of energy for many countries is nuclear power (核能). Thirty-one countries use nuclear power now. Nuclear power has some advantages. First of all, we won’t run out of nuclear power. Also, nuclear power does not make the dirty. And if a country has nuclear power, it doesn’t need to buy much oil from other countries.
However, there are also a lot of problems that come with nuclear power. For example, nuclear accidents are very serious. In 1986, there was a nuclear accident in Russia. In the next 20 years, about 4,000 people got sick or died because of that. In 2011, there was another very serious nuclear accident in Japan. That was several years ago, but Japan is still trying to clean up the nuclear waste from the accident.
Many people don’t want nuclear power in their countries. They say that it’s not safe. A lot of people in the United States, Russia, France, Japan, India and many other countries hope to use safer and cleaner ways to get electricity. Sometimes they get together to show their strong disagreement with nuclear power.
Though many people hate nuclear power, more and more countries are using it. One reason for this is that the world is using more and more energy, but we just don’t have enough fossil fuel.

Who owns English?
1 English is spoken by about 400 million people, mostly in the US, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. In Ghana, India and Singapore, English is used as a working language, for example, between bosses and secretaries, and between doctors and patients, although there are other languages for everyday use. In China and many other countries, English is the most important foreign language that children learn at school, because when they grow up, it will be quite possible for them to meet people from other countries. They will need a common language to communicate with each other. English is now used by nearly a quarter of the world’s population, and anywhere you go in the world, there is a good chance that you will meet someone who speaks English.
2 The reason why English is spoken everywhere is that in the nineteenth century, English became the language of world trade. And in the twentieth century, the US spread English through newspaper, television and films. It is now the common language for international travel, science, industry, and recently, information technology and the Internet.
3 It is also important to know that English has borrowed many words from other languages, for example, "restaurant" from French, "zero" from Arabic, "piano" from Italian, and "tofu" from Chinese.
4 Will the importance of English last? As China continues to grow, many people think that Chinese will become as common as English by the middle of the twenty-first century. More and more schools in Europe are teaching Chinese as a foreign language, together with some European languages. However, most people still think that English will be used most around the world, at least for the next twenty or thirty years.
5 So who owns English? The answer is everyone who speaks it-the British, the Indians and the Chinese all help make it a rich language. Even though we speak different types of English, we are all part of an international club. We all own English.
