【推荐1】Have you ever noticed how many calories (卡路里) you eat in a day? There is a special convenience store opened in the Chengdu Youth Palace. If you “shop” there, you can find out how many calories there are in different foods.
The store was opened on May17th, 2022. It’s part of the “Know Your Food” program of the UNICEF. The purpose of the program is to make children and young people know more about foods and help them make healthy choices about their diet.
Instead of real foods, many imitation (仿制) snacks are put on the shelves in the store, including candies, sugary drinks and latiao. People can take them to the self-service counter (柜台) to see how many calories they have. In addition, the store offers many models and cartoons to help people understand which foods are very good for them and which foods they should eat less often.
At present, obesity (肥胖症) has become a serious problem among children. It is shown that nearly 20% of children between 6 and 17 years of age, and over 10% of children under the age of 6 in China are overweight.

Being overweight is known to have many bad influences, such as having a higher risk of getting disease and a higher risk of developing emotional and behavioral problems.

Fu Min, Fu Lei's younger son edited (编辑) the letters and the book was published in 1981.

【推荐1】Young people these days have to take part in more and more after-school classes. They are much busier than they have ever been before. How much is too much? Should there be a limit (限定) to the number of after-school classes that a young person takes part in? Personally, I think there should be a limit. I am an overtired and worried parent of three. We have been working to cut out as many unnecessary after-school activities as we can. There are many reasons for my worry.
One of the reasons is that we just don’t have enough time as a family. We often sat around the table and discussed something at the dinner table in the past. We are lucky now if we even get dinner, let alone eat it as a family.
Another reason for the worry is that my kids’ grades are falling. These kids who used to be ‘A’ and ‘B’ students are now trying very hard to keep a ‘C’ in most classes. There just isn’t enough time for homework. School education should be the most important—not the after-school classes.
The final reason I feel worried is that we are all so tired. Everyone is running three different places to take different classes. The kids are so tired that they are even falling asleep in class. Kids need time to rest, play, imagine, and create (创造). After-school classes claim (声称) to create well-round kids, but as a result, they actually take away the happiness and free time of the kids.
1. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1)A. | B. | C. | D. |
A.have no time to play | B.fall asleep in the class |
C.not get good grades | D.have a dinner alone |
A.happiness and free time | B.after-school classes |
C.well-round kids | D.three different places |
A.explain why more and more kids need after-school classes |
B.show it’s necessary to control the number of after-school classes |
C.encourage kids to take part in more after-school classes |
D.show people’s different opinions about after-school classes |
【推荐2】Each of us has dreams and goals for our future. What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dream and goal.
But why do you have dreams and goals, you still end up with nothing? What separates successful people from the dreamers is their persistent (锲而不舍的) action. When you learn your lessons in school, you must work hard and not give up. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying, and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with. If we have a hard lesson today, let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow.
This is the famous formula (公式) for success:
Dream > Believe > Achieve
Most people have what they want (Dream) and think they can realize their dreams (Believe). And then they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired waiting and lose a lot, they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is.
I personally believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life, you have to add one thing to your success formula:
Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve
For me, act is the most important thing for success and that’s to Take Persistent Action (Act). If you say, “I can’t do it” and give up, you can never do anything valuable. However, “I’ll try” creates wonders. Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them. Success is not something that falls down from the sky. Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent action.
Please remember: Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality.

C.Get ready to create wonders. | D.Prepare for a harder one. |

【推荐3】Good morning, boys and girls.
