     Recently, more and more people pay attention to eating healthily. Some food additives (添加剂) are used
to make different kinds of foods. Some of them can make the food more delicious and some of them can
make it colorful. But lots of chemicals are used to produce what we eat every day.
     Sudan red is a kind of chemical that factories used it to dye cloth, make the shoes brighter. But some
people produced salted duck eggs with it. However, it isn't a kind of food additive. The food made from
Sudan red makes it easier to cause cancer. Melamine (三聚氰胺) is another kind of chemical that are banned
(禁止). It's white crystal (晶体), which was discovered by a German chemist called Sustus Von Liebig in
1834. Melamine can be used to make paper, medicine and woods, ect. But nobody can imagine that some
people used it as a material of milk powder (粉末). Because of melamine, it's reported that 4 babies died and
more than 50 thousand babies are affected since 2008. Sanlu, a famous milk powder factory was closed.
What's worse, milk powder with melamine appeared in 2011 again. Problems of food safety, for example,
poisonous rice, lean meat powder (瘦肉精) and plasticizers (塑化剂) are becoming more and more serious.
    Fortunately, lots of laws have been made to make the solution (解决方法) better. We think we will eat
more healthily in the future.

     Do you play a musical instrument? If so, you may be getting smarter. A recent study shows that taking
music lessons can raise a person's IQ.
     Scientists studied 132 children in Canadian schools. At the beginning of the school year, these children
took an IQ test. Then they were divided into four groups. One group took singing lessons. Another group
took weekly piano lessons. The third group took classes in drams (戏剧). And the last group did no special
activities at all.
    At the end of the school year, the 132 children took an IQ test again. In all four groups, the average score
went up. However, the piano players'IQs went up 7.0 points on average. The average increase for the other
three groups was only 4.3 points.
     The researchers say that the difference is small and it may not result in better grades for the piano players.
However, they still consider the results important. Learning an instrument helps kids becomes better at
concentrating and at memorizing things. Therefore, the researchers say, it may be good for brain development
in young people.
    If you have a chance to learn to play a musical instrument, never miss it. Remember it can make you
smarter.

     A group of 22 of these new policemen went to work last week in Beijing. They go around the city to
see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and onther public places. One of their
aims is to make sure that these sites have set their air conditioning (空调) no cooler than 26 ℃.

     "If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26 ℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity
in one summer. That's one-third of all the usage of the city in the season," said a TV advertisement.

cities have to spend billion of yuan solving (解决) environmental problems every year.

usage by 20％ and increase renewable energy up to 10％ from 7％ by 2010.
      To introduce the public to a green life, last week Beijing held a show on energy-saving technology and
productions. Environment-friendly machines, such as a vending machine that helps colllect used bottles, have
attracted lots of attention.
     "We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment. Each of us can find
effective ways to do it in our daily lives," said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.
