A recent report by the American Heart Association—an organization that encourages adults and kids to stay healthy—found that today’s kids are 15 percent less healthy than kids from years ago. What does that mean? Let’s say you’re a 12-year-old girl. You’re not a sports superstar, but you’re pretty good. Let’s say your mother was at the same kind of kid when she was at your age. Now imagine we could set up a mile race between you and your mother from 30 years ago. The study shows your mother would probably beat you in the race by 90 seconds. It was the same for boys. An average boy from 30 years ago would beat an average boy today.

The scientists who did the study think there are some reasons for the big fall in fitness. First, too many of today’s kids are overweight(超重的), which makes it harder for them to run fast. Second, kids today don’t get enough exercise. Doctors say kids should get at least 60 minutes of exercise a day. That’s why it is important for schools to have P.E. classes.

So what should kids do? If you don’t want your parents to think they are faster than you, don’t spend a lot of time playing video games, watching TV or movies. Instead, do things that will get you to move.

The First Snow

The first snow last year was in October

I was so happy that it was so early

Small and white, virginal and bright

To woods and fields

Like the love from mother

The first snow of this year was on Christmas Day

It came a little later than before

But it still falls slowly and deeply in silent

To mountains and rivers

Like the love from father

A good beginning is half done

A timely and heavy snow promises a fruitful year

The fallen snow will turn into the spring mud

To a good harvest year quietly and generously

Like a silk worm or a candle

You can do what you can do

Few words but many deeds

You can help everyone that needs help

Bravely and gently with love

Like a wee snow star

1.Why was the writer so happy according to the poem?

More Americans prefer to get food at their local food markets. According to a new study of the University of Iowa (UI), it’s not just because these people believe the food is fresher and tastes better, but because they think they are following a kind of social duty — sharing a healthy lifestyle, helping save environment and so on.

These so-called “locavores (土食者)” are shopping at farmers markets and joining food coops (食品合作社), because they enjoy knowing who grows the food. They are also driven to eat locally grown produce and meat because their promise to do so makes them feel a part of something greater than themselves.

Vasi, an associate professor at the UI, said the local food market is a “moralized (道德化的) market”, and that is a market in which people combine economic activities with their values. Among the findings, the UI researchers discovered local food markets were more likely to develop in areas where local people had a strong promise to social duty, health and the environment. “It’s about valuing the relationship with the farmers and people who produce the food and believing that how they produce the food agrees with your personal values.” Vasi said.

Vasi shared the results of the study at the American Sociology Association annual meeting in Chicago on Aug. 22, 2015. Researchers also did 40 interviews with consumers and producers in different local food markets in Iowa and New York.

Once upon a time, in the forest there lived a baby elephant who had no friends. None of the animals wanted to be his friend because he was too large.

One day, a wild fire happened in the forest. The animals ran to safer places. The dry trees caught fire and the fire was sure to go all around the forest. The baby elephant ran to the nearest river, collected much water in his trunk(象鼻) and rushed to the burning trees. He sprayed(喷) the water on the fire. Finally, he put out the fire.

Later, while he was resting after the hard job, all the animals came to him and expressed their thanks for his kind help in time. They were now ready to regard him as their good friend and their hero. They said, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.”
