1 . Of course you don’t want to be sick in your vacation. So what can you do while traveling? There are three things you should remember: relax, sleep and eat well.
A vacation is a time for relaxing, but very often it is not. There were so many places to visit: shops, parks, churches, and so on. You may spend most of the days walking around these places. This can be tiring. Don’t ask your body to do so much. A tired body means a weak body. A weak body gets sick easily. So sit down quietly in a nice place. In good weather, look for a quiet park bench.
Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. Your hotel room may be noisy, or the bed may be too hard. Or you may want to stay up late at night. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. The extra hour can make a big difference.
Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. This means eating the right kinds of food. Your body needs fresh fruit, vegetables and milk.
So remember this: If you want to enjoy your vacation, take care of yourself. Give your body some rest. Get enough sleep and eat healthy food.

3 . College students often hear about the “freshman fifteen”. What does it mean? You may wonder.
It means the fifteen pounds, or about seven kilograms students might gain (获得) in their first year of college.
Many young men and women put on extra weight when they start college. Some schools have studied it. Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, has found that freshmen gain an average of four pounds during their first twelve weeks. That is almost two kilograms. If weight gain continues at this rate (比率), how long will they put on fifteen pounds? The answer is forty-five weeks, or almost a year.
And why do so many freshmen gain weight? The answers listed by experts are not so surprising. The freshmen gain weight because it’s the first time for college kids to enjoy complete control over their own lives. They may choose to eat and drink whatever they want, whenever they want. For example, college students often eat foods high in fat. After all, there are no parents around to say no to junk food. Students may also miss meals. They could be in class or studying or just … busy. Also, freshmen often use food to relax their mind, they will overeat when they have food as they have college pressures to deal with.
This may be short-lived (短暂的), but the weight gain should not be overlooked (忽视). Remember: It requires more effort to lose those pounds than to simply not gain them in the beginning. Or even worse, they may carry the extra weight around for years.

6 . “Are you cold?”
This is a question I’ve heard many times since(自……以来)I came to China. I often wear a light jacket and T-shirt in winter, when most other people are wearing heavy clothing.
I know people are confused(困惑的)when I wear so little clothing during winter. But when my Chinese friends say no to eat or drink cold things, even during the summer, that’s when the tables turn and I become confused. They believe that cold food and drinks might harm their health. Where does this belief come from? My friends said their parents taught them that cold food and drinks are bad for your stomach. One friend even told me that cold drinks, such as ice water, can cause stomach to have a terrible illness.
But after doing some research of my own, I wasn’t sure if this was true. But an article I read on Snopes, a myth-busting(辟谣)website, says the food that you eat will quickly match your own temperature. So, it doesn’t matter if you eat something hot or cold. The temperature of the food or drinks will match your own temperature any way. But on the other hand, when I get sick, my Chinese friends often tell me drink some hot water and have a good rest. And I have to say, following this advice often does make me feel better.

9 . Healthy eating doesn’t just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.
◆ Eat with others. It can help you to see others’ healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.
◆ Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty-sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.
◆ Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don’t eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.
◆ Eat healthy snacks like fruit, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn’t mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.
◆ Don’t eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating supper until the last minute. Try to eat supper at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest more of the food before you rest for the next 8-10 hours.

10 . When you open the fridge, you find some moldy (发霉的) food sometimes. But before you can throw it away, your mother stops you. She doesn’t want to waste food. She cuts off the moldy part and eats the rest. Is it safe to do this?
Mold can grow on almost all kinds of food. Mold is usually green, white, black or grey. Mold makes food soft and changes its color. Moldy food tastes quite bad—and it’s not safe to eat.
If you find mold in soft food, throw it away. Soft food, such as bread, tomatoes or hot dogs, usually holds water. This allows mold to easily grow below its surface. Bacteria (细菌) can also grow along with it.
But it’s easy to remove mold from hard food. The mold can’t grow very deeply inside this kind of food. According to the BBC, you should cut about 2.5 cm around and below the mold to remove it. It’s OK to cut the moldy parts out of hard food and eat the rest. But if the food is completely covered with mold, you should still throw it away.
Most kinds of mold are bad for us. But some kinds of mold can be used to make food. For example, penicillium can be used to make many types of cheeses, such as blue cheese. These cheeses are safe to eat—and they’re quite delicious as well.
