Many people believe that French people are very different from Americans. This is certainly true where
eating habits are concerned (有关的)! According to a report by the World Health Organization (世卫组织),
each year French people eat four times more better than Americans. In addition, they eat more vegetables,
potatoes, grain and fish. Yet, despite (不管) the fact that they eat larger amounts of these foods, the French
take in about the same number of calories each day as Americans. French and American men consume (消耗)
about 2,500 calories each day on average. French and American women take in about 1,600 calories daily.
How can this be? If the French are eating more of certain types of foods, shouldn't this add up to more
calories?And why are so few French people overweight compared to Americans? The answer is that
Americans consume 18 times more refined (精制的) sugar than the French, and drink twice as much
whole milk!
Although many Americans believe the French end up each meal with gooey (胶粘的) desserts, this just
isn't so. Except for special occasions, dessert in a typical French home consists of fresh fruit or cheese.
Many American families, on the other hand, like to end their meals with a bowl or two of ice cream or another
sweet treat.
1. Name six types of foods that French people eat more of each year than Americans.

2. How many calories does the average Frenchman consume each day?
______________________________________________________________________________.
3. How much whole milk does the average French person drink compared to the average Americans?

5. What do French families usually eat for dessert?

Dear editor,
Last Saturday I wandered into a clothes market. I didn't really want to buy anything. 1
Then I saw a suit of clothes which was just to my taste. I asked the saleswoman how mush .it was. 2 But she urged me to try it on. So I did. Well, I liked it very much, and I asked the price again. 3
Why, that was far beyond my expectations. 4 I still couldn't afford it, and besides, I only had less than 100 yuan with me. I put the clothes back. 5 I took all I had in front of her, only 90 yuan or so. She thought for a while, then said,“80 .yuan is OK. Then you still have enough money to get home. ” 6 .
7 I had only spent 80 yuan on the clothes that were supposed to be worth 240 yuan. 8 I couldn't help wondering how she had came up with the price of 240 yuan in the first place.
9 Most Chinese are wage earners. We all hope to buy things at a fair price. Fortunately, the local government has carried out lots of measures in order to solve the problem. 10 With best wishes.
