You may not have heard the words “freshman fifteen” before, but they are very important for students who are entering university. A freshman is a first-year college student. “Fifteen” refers to fifteen pounds—the fifteen pounds added to a student's weight in his or her first year. There are a number of reasons why first-year university students gain weight; but it's encouraging to know that freshmen don't have to add these harmful fifteen pounds.
Mistakes choosing food
University kitchens serve many kinds of food. Some students choose unhealthy food, because now their parents are not nearby to help them choose. Some students visit the kitchen many times while studying. Late at night, some students get harmful fast food such as French fries with coke to drink. Students also have less time for walking, running, and doing sports because of their schoolwork.
Eating right
If you' re careful, you don't have to add fifteen pounds. Here are some ideas:
* Think more about what you eat.
* Eat plenty of vegetables and healthy meats.
* Don't eat desserts full of sugar, have fruit after dinner.
* Try not to eat so much junk food while you study.
* It's all right to have a little fast food sometimes—but not often.
* Write down the foods you eat.
Remember that the “freshman fifteen” can happen to anyone. Talk to your friends about it. Together, try to eat healthy food and not to eat junk food. Walk, run, do sports—move and you will feel better! And it is always more fun with friends. Help each other and you can have a healthy and happy freshman year.

Have you heard of the following strange (奇怪的) ways of keeping healthy before? Let’s have a look!
Have a hot drink to feel cooler
Many people like to drink coffee or tea with ice in summer. However, a cold drink just cools you from the inside. But that’s not truly how people’s bodies work. A hot drink helps people sweat (流汗). As sweat evaporates from your skin (从皮肤蒸发), you will feel cooler.
Write down information by hand to remember it better
Modern people like to type (打字) everything because it’s quick and clear. But studies have shown that people are more likely to remember the information if they write it down by hand. Because you have to think over before writing down it and look carefully after finishing writing. This helps you remember the information and keeps your mind and body healthy.
Don’t brush your teeth after eating
People should clean their teeth every day, but brushing teeth at once after eating is not good. It may cause some problems like discoloration and cracking (变色和破裂). Doctors’ advice is to wait at least 30-60 minutes after eating.
1. What do many people like to put in coffee in summer?A.Sugar. | B.Milk. | C.Ice. |

B.Typing is much better than writing by hand. |
C.After sweating a lot in summer, people will feel cooler. |
5 . If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and some of this is because of their bad eating habits(习惯). Most teenagers love 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 at one school, scientists found that over two-thirds of the students didn't follow a healthy diet(饮食). They didn't like vegetables, and many of them didn't like to eat fruits. They enjoy eating 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.
★ Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind.

March 22, 2014 Dear Aunt Emma, I was so happy to get your letter yesterday. I am heavier than you saw me last year, and I’m even the heaviest in my class now. So Mom wants me togo on a diet. Vegetables are good for my health, but meat isn’t. Now I eat more vegetables but less meat and do more exercise than before. For example, I jump rope for thirty minutes every day and go swimming every weekend. By the way, I am the best swimmer in my class. I won the first prize at the swimming race last week. Dad often takes me to the beach in summer. Summer is the best season to swim. It’s also my favorite season. Summer is coming. It is getting hotter and hotter. Would you like to go swimming with us when you come back to Dalian this summer? It will be fun. Of course, to me, getting taller is important, too. I am only 150 cm tall now. I’m the shortest of all the boy students in my class. Rope- jumping will help me to become taller than I am now. Hope to see you soon. Love, Jack |
