The Healthy Food Pyramid(金字塔) is a simple guide to the types and proportion(比例) of foods that we should eat every day for good health. It contains the four main food groups, according to how much they contribute to a balanced diet based on the Australian Dietary Guidelines.
The bottom layers make up the largest part of the Pyramid because plant foods should make up the largest part of our diet—around 70% of what we eat! Plant foods contain a lot of nutrients(营养物) like vitamins and minerals(矿物质). Older children, teens and adults should aim to have at least 2 serves of fruit and 5 serves of vegetables each day. The middle layer includes the milk, yoghurt, cheese, meat, fish, eggs, nuts, and legumes(豆类) food groups. Foods in the milk, yoghurt, cheese primarily provide us with calcium and protein(钙和蛋白质), plus other vitamins and minerals. These foods are our main sources of protein. But each food also provides a unique mix of nutrients, including iron, zinc, B12 vitamins and healthy fats. We should aim to have a variety of animal and plant-based choices from this food group. The top layer refers to healthy fats. We need small amounts of healthy fats every day to support heart health and brain function.
Two more healthy suggestions. Water is the best drink and cooking your own meals at home and choosing minimally processed foods will help limit added salt and sugar.

10 . Do you know how to invite people to parties? Inviting people to a party is an art. You must think about what kind of party you’re going to have first. If it is a small party, you can just give a call to your friends and ask them to the party. You can even e-mail them or just leave a message for them.
Now, calling someone is an art, too. First, give a call to your friend, and then begin the talk asking him about his life and family. Ask him about his schedule（日程表） on the day of the party. If he says he is free, you can ask him to the party directly（直接地）. If the friend is not free, then ask him to try to find time for your party.
If you’re going to have a big party, and need to ask lots of people to your party. You must decide how many people you want at your party. Then you can write a list of them and send them beautiful invitation cards. Because you may not have so much time to give them a call each. You must send the cards a few days before the party so that they can have enough time to prepare for it.
根据短文内容, 回答下列问题。
1. How many ways can you use to invite your friends if you’re having a small party?
2. What is also an art now?
3. What should you do if your friend is too busy to come to your party?
4. When should you send invitation cards if you’re having a big party?
5. What does the passage（文章）tell us?
