The United States has many different kinds of climate（气候）. On the west coast（海岸）, the temperature changes very little between summer and winter, but the north central states（中部各州）have a very different kind of climate. In these states, people wear light clothes during the summer, and they need heavy wool or fur clothes in winter.
In the southwest, the climate is quite warm during the winter, but hot in summer. In the eastern part of the United States, summer temperatures are very different from winter temperatures. Summers are usually hot, and winters are usually cold. Spring temperatures are comfortably warm, and autumn temperatures are quite cool.
Years ago, people in the cold areas（地区）of the United States did not often get vegetables and fresh fruits during the winter. Today trucks and trains carry fruits and vegetables very quickly to all parts of the United States. In this way, Americans “send their climate” to people in other states.

Derek Webber said, "We made this survey in order to find out what rich people think of the space trip. " He added, "We will say these trips will cost much, but it's exciting for you to feel space weightlessness and see the world from up there.”

Eat According to Your Blood Type by Eric Carle Dr. Carle believes that the food people eat has some chemical relationship with their blood types. If people follow a diet according to their blood types, they will get more energy, become healthier, and even lose weight. ◆ Blood Type O People with blood type O can digest meat and vegetables well. They should eat more beef, chicken, and fish if they want to lose weight. However, only eating rice and beans isn’t helpful to them at all. ◆ Blood Type A People with blood type A should eat more fruit and vegetables if they want to lose weight. Meat isn’t digested easily in their bodies, so they should eat less meat. ◆ Blood Type B People with blood type B should eat fewer noodles because they easily make them fat. Meat, milk and vegetables are good for them to lose weight. ◆ Blood Type AB About 9% of the people around the world have blood type AB. The number is much lower than types A, B, and O. It is healthier for them to eat vegetables, fruit and eggs to go on a diet but they should eat less meat. |
