Li Lu’ou thought he did the right thing by calling 110 when he saw his two classmates in trouble on the corner of a dark street.
Li and his classmates from NO.2 Middle School Affiliated to Beijing Normal University spent this year’s Valentine’s Day selling roses on the street.As night approached,they cycled back with over 200 yuan in their pockets.
Suddenly,a gang of robbers jumped out at them.The five robbers were tall and strong,so Li ran away to call the police.He thought it would be the most practical thing to do and he was right.His classmates returned safe and sound.
So,what would you have done in Li’s situation?Would you have got off your bike and fought the robbers to rescue your friends?
A new Beijing student code does not encourage you to risk your life to help them.
The new code was introduced to more than 1.7 million primary and middle school students in the city at the start of the new term.
It has cut words which might encourage youngsters to risk their lives for others dangerous situations.Gone are the old calls,which had been in place since 1987,for students to“fight criminals courageously”and “sacrifice themselves to save others”.
Children’s heroic acts usually left them injured or even dead because they failed to fully foresee the dangers of their actions.
A wellknown example was Lai Ning,who was listed among the “top 10 model young pioneers” in 1989 after he lost his life trying to put out a fire at the age of 14.
The deaths connected to teenagers’“heroic acts” started a nationwide debate about the protection of youngsters.
Wei Lusheng,a parent in Beijing,said schools must first teach children how to protect themselves,before learning from heroes.
But educators thought the spirit of courage should not be thrown away in the new student code.
“Getting rid of the words‘fight criminals courageously’do not mean we deny the spirit of‘fearlessness’and ‘readiness’to help others.”said Li Jing,an official in Beijing.“But,we should be more rational about the spirit of sacrifice.”
Li Lu’ou agreed.“Cherishing life is no reason to be a coward,” he said.“but you need make sure you are able to offer help.For example,it would cause more trouble if I jumped into water to rescue someone drowning,but didn’t know how to swim.In that situation it’s better to call the police or an adult.”
41.Which is true about Li and his classmates?

C.Li risked his life for his classmates in the dangerous situation.

Some weight-loss camps, which are rare in China just a few years ago, have
sprouted in Beijing, Qingdao, Shenzhen, and other cities. Today about 15
percent of adults, or 200 million Chinese, are reportedly overweight. Of these,
90 million—about 7 percent—are obese(极肥胖的).
Experts say the obesity epidemic is spreading to children, though more slowly than in adults. The trend, they say, will have a huge impact on the health of China’s citizens and economy. “We’re seeing a very large proportion of children and adolescents who are quite heavy and aren’t moving much,” said Barry Popkin, a nutrition professor. Popkin carries out an ongoing health-and-nutrition survey of 16,000 households in China. He says more kids today are overeating and putting on weight “quite quickly.” In just ten years, China’s childhood obesity rate has doubled, with the greatest gains coming in urban areas. “In big cities it’s a big problem.”
Some experts blame the extra fat on a range of factors, many of them tied to China’s rapidly changing economy and culture. The diets of Chinese adults and children are far higher in calorie-laden meats, fish, eggs, dairy products, fats, and sugars than ever before. In addition, kids—especially city dwellers—are more sedentary today and spend more time indoors in front of homework, television, computer games, and the Internet.
Shuwen Ng, a health economist, says that kids in China now have pocket money, and they spend a portion of it on junk food. Ng adds that advertising and peer groups influence kids’ food choices. Certain foods, such as new candies or fast food, have attractive features.
China’s childhood obesity rate still lags that of the United States, where some 15 percent of kids are said to be obese. But the long-term effects are equally serious.
1.According to the passage we know _____.
A. weight-loss camps have been very popular in China six years ago
B. about 290 million Chinese are overweight in China in all
C. in China childhood obesity rate in rural areas is lower than that in major cities

2. Which of the following is NOT the reason of China’s childhood obesity?
A. Advertising on some new candies B. High quality diets
C. Playing computer games for long time D. Having pocket money
3. The underlined word “sedentary” in the second paragraph probably means _____.
A. attentive B. earnest C. absent D. inactive
4. According to the passage we can infer _____.
A. obesity explosion in China will affect the United States
B. there is great difference in kids’ food choices now
C. junk food contributes to childhood obesity
D. city children eat more than rural children
5.What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Chinese Childhood Obesity Explosion
