Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steer them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.
1.According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?

There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.
It is a surprising fact that the population aging is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the rate of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.
What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability. Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.
Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not make sure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.
Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination in employment. Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.
Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.
1.The rate of older people________.
A. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries
B. is one-seventh of the population in developing countries
C. will increase much faster in China than in France
D. will be sixty percent in developing countries by 2020
2.According to passage, which of the following are governments most worried about?
A. The diseases and disability of older people
B. The longer life and good health of people.
C. The loss of taxes on older people.
D. The increasing respect for older people.
3.Which of the following measure is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?
A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.
B. Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.
C. Making sure adequate income protection for older people.
D. Providing free health care for sick older people.
4.The author concludes in the last paragraph that ________.
A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the aging problem
B. population aging is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgently
C. people are too busy to solve the population aging problem
D. much time and effort will be lost in solving the aging problem

I heard many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling (叛逆). I suggested they recall their own teenage years. At that age they would like to be growing away from parents. They preferred to stand on their own feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of going out fighting bravely on their own, most of them are grasping one another's hands for reassurance (肯定).
They declare they want to dress as they like, but they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music, but somehow they all end up gathering around listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in a similar way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (茧) into a larger cocoon.
It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today's parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All these create a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.
But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don't, care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go for it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come with the people who respect you for who you are. That is the only kind of popularity that really matters.
1.What will teenagers do if they are rebelling?
A.Fight bravely.
B.Wear beautiful clothes.
C.Follow the crowd.
D.Stay away from teachers.
2.What's paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.The symbols of the present rebellion.
B.The attitudes of parents to the present rebellion.
C.The reasons why teenagers fail in finding their own ways.
D.The ways of changing the teenagers' dependence.
3.What does the author suggest?
A.Finding popularity with others.
B.Growing away from parents.
C.Staying together with friends.
D.Holding on to our own thoughts.

Should parents ever hit their children?
Research suggests many of us are likely to respond “no”, and public support for spanking(打屁股) has been falling over the years.But surveys also show that 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to spanking their child at least once.
I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect, and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And, no, I don' t feel I was damaged by it.
Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children.
But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer.
Two years ago, Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive.
Murray Straus, professor at the University of New Hampshire in America, has studied the topic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers.It may be that children with lower IQs were more likely to get spanked, but the punishment may have been counterproductive (反作用的) to their mental development, as well.
Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks (用巴掌打) on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit.
Last year, Marjorie Gunnoe, a psychologist at Calvin College, studied teens who have never spanked.There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physically punished.Gunnoe’s research suggests they don' t turn out any better than those who were sometimes spanked.
There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers (脾气).But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical punishment.
1.According to the first three paragraphs, the author was probably hit by her parents when____________.
A.they were dissatisfied with her grade
B.she showed no respect for the elder
C.they cannot control their temper
D.their discipline turns out to be not strict enough
2.According to Murray Straus, children who are physically punished ______.
A.are less aggressive toward others when they get older
B.have slower physical development
C.benefit from occasional spanking
D.may develop lower IQs than their peer
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?
A.40 percent of children grow up without ever being spanked
B.Children who suffer less physical punishment are better students
C.Occasional open-handed spanking on the bottom are mentally harmful
D.Researchers disagree over whether smacking is mentally harmful to children

People are overweight for many reasons, the most important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods, get the wrong types ofcalories per meal, and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day. Food is more powerful than any weight loss pill, because the food that you eat can either make you thin or fat. This is true because your body is like an engine, and it only needs certain foods at certainintervals(间隔) each day.
Low-calorie Diets Do Not Work
The reason people cannot lose weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism(新陈代谢) will detect any major drop in calories and it will then adjust itself by burning fewer calories each day. That is the reason why you can eat 1,000 calories per day and not lose any weight, while your friends can eat 2,500 calories per day and not gain any weight.
Low-fat Diets Do Not Work
Many people in today’s society are buying mostly low-fat or non-fat food at the grocery store. Everybody knows how much fat is inside the food they buy. However, people are getting fatter than ever before by doing this. They are not losing weight by changing to this low-fat lifestyle.
Losing weight has nothing to do with these things. One of the most important things you can do to control your weight is to eat the proper foods, such as fruit and vegetables, eat them at the right time, and exercise every day. If people make this a habit, they will lose weight.
1.What is the main reason why people are overweight?
A. They burn many calories every day.
B. They eat the wrong foods at the wrong time.
C. They eat food with lots of calories.
D. They don’t take weight loss pills.
2.The article is written in order to________.
A. tell readers not to buy low-fat or non-fat food.
B.tell readers about an important scientific discovery.
C .tell readers how to lose weight.
D. call on people to lose weight and stay healthy.
3.To realize the aim of your weight loss plan, you should_________.
a. do exercise every day
b. eat meals at the right time
c. eat fruits and vegetables
d. eat low-fat or sweet food
e. eat the proper foods at each meal
A. a, b, c, e B. a, b, d, e
C. a, c, d, e D.a, b, c, d
