2 . In our busy society where food is readily available (可得到的) from delivery (递送) services and fast food restaurants, almost one in three American adults is now considered to be obese. Childhood obesity is also at an all-time high.
Obesity means very overweight. If you are obese, you have too much body-fat. Doctors define(定义) obesity as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, and overweight as having a BMI of 25 to 30.
If you eat more food than your body can use, this will make you put on weight. Food that your body does not need as energy will be stored as fat by your body.
The following are the major factors that increase the risk of obesity.
What you eat plays a major role in weight gain. Eating a lot of fattening foods such as hamburgers, sweet drinks, ice creams and other sweet and fatty foods can increase the risk of becoming obese.
If you do not do enough exercise, you will put on weight as the food you eat is not being used to make energy for physical activities.
The chances of you being obese are greater if your parents are obese.
There are many psychological (心理的) factors that cause people to eat too much.
People who are stressed, unhappy or bored will often eat to make themselves feel better. This is known as comfort eating.
Age is another factor, as you tend to be less active when you get older. The amount of muscle in your body usually decreases (下降) as you get older and this causes the metabolism (新陈代谢) to slow down. As a result of these changes, you need to eat less, and if you do not eat less as you grow older, you will put on weight.
Obesity can cause many health disorders such as high blood pressure, diabetes (糖尿病), heart problems, cancer and many other serious medical conditions.

7 . Yesterday, Danny ate lunch at a restaurant with his family. Late that night, he had food poisoning（中毒）. He wanted to know how it happened.
Danny learned about a few reasons for food poisoning.
The first reason is there are bacteria（细菌）in the food. Bacteria live in a lot of food and they live in meat, eggs and seafood most often. If you cook the food in a right way, you can kill the bacteria in it.
Another reason for food poisoning is parasites（寄生虫）. They often live in meat, but could sometimes live on vegetables, too. If you don’t cook the food in a right way, these parasites may start living in your body!
The third reason for food poisoning is eating the food with toxins（毒素）in it. Sometimes the food gets toxins naturally, and sometimes the toxins come from insect spray（喷雾杀虫剂）. So you must wash the food carefully before you eat or cook it.
The last reason for food poisoning is allergen（过敏原）. Some people are just allergic to some food, and they may feel very uncomfortable after eating it.
Danny decided to choose food carefully and cook it in a right way before he ate it in the future. That was important. He never wanted to feel this way again.
