【推荐3】If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and the reason of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love fast food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”.

But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey(调查) at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred(更喜欢) to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.

Parents today also worry about their children’s diet. Some doctors give the following advice:

Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food.

Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血压)in the future.

Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar.

Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(维生素)and have little fat.

Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.

【推荐2】China covers large areas and has a great population. Different living habits have always been an interesting topic in the country. Recently, another difference between southern Chinese and northern Chinese became a hot one: the way people shop at markets.
People from southern China say that they always buy what they need for just one or two meals. It is normal for them to buy half of a Chinese cabbage, two potatoes and 0.25 kilograms of beef at a time.
However, one may be laughed at if he does this in the north. Instead, buying vegetables and meat enough for a week is usual. Also, you can buy a small amount (数量) of fruit, such as a single apple or pear, each time in the south. Shop owners even help you peel and cut them. But shop owners in the north hardly offer such service. And many fruits are sold in baskets and boxes.
The difference could be due to the different weather.
Food can be kept for a long time in the north, as it is usually cold and dry there. Many northern Chinese have the habit of storing food, especially for the long winter. But the hot and wet weather in the south makes southern Chinese buy just enough food for one meal or one day, or else the food may go bad.

【推荐3】Picture the scene: It’s midnight. You’re very hungry after studying for a long time. Then you see a nice pie in the fridge. Will you eat it? It seems that you shouldn’t, for many reasons, including its influence on your studies.

Scientists have long known that eating late at night can make us put on weight. But now a new study has shown that late night eating can also have a bad influence on our brains—it might hurt our ability to learn new things and store memories.

“We believe that late night eating may have an influence on the parts of the brain that control learning and memory,” Dawn Loh, PhD, a scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles, said, “We believe the timing of when we eat may be the main cause of the damaged memory. ”

For the study, the researchers did an experiment. They looked at two groups of mice with strict feeding plans. For two weeks, the mice were allowed to eat either during the time when they are usually the most active, or during the time when they usually sleep. The mice received the same amount of sleep and calories.

Then the researchers tested the brains of the mice. In one test, the scientists tried to find out whether the mice had a good memory by putting the mice in a room connected to an electric shock for some time. The researchers noticed that, when the mice were put in the room again after 24 hours had gone by, those mice that ate when they should have been sleeping were less scared than those mice that ate during usual hours. It means that they didn’t remember.

So think twice before the midnight snack—it might be bad for more than your weight.

①Researchers put the mice in the room again after 24 hours.

【推荐2】Many people often meet such a difficult situation. It’s that they don’t know the way in a new place, and they are too shy to ask people for the way.     1    

First, you must know some important and useful expressions, such as “Could you please…” “Excuse me” “Thanks a lot” and so on. For example, when we want to ask a stranger for the way, we should say “Excuse me” at first.     2     Next, “Could you please…” is often used while asking for the direction. After we know how to get to the final place, we should say “Thanks” to others.     3    

    4     They usually include pens, special maps, cameras and so on. Sometimes a pen can help us to get to the right place. We can write down the crucial(关键的) words about the place, and then we can show them to the strangers who we want to ask for help.     5     Before we go to a strange place, we can get some photos about it. Then we can show the photos about it to the strangers when asking for the directions.

As a famous’ writer once said, “A friend is a present which you give yourself.”

    2     Hear what your friend says first rather than making conclusions quickly. Sometimes it’s useful to repeat their words back to them.     3
