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.

Dreams take up about one quarter of our sleeping time. People have several dreams each night. Dreams
are like short films. They are usually in color. Some dreams are like old films. They come to us over and
over again. That may be because the dreamer is worrying about something. Dreaming may be a way of
trying to find an answer. Some people get new ideas about their work from dreams. They may have been
thinking about their work all day. These thoughts can carry over into dreams. Sometimes we wake up with
a good feeling from a dream. But often we can"t remember the dream. Dreams can disappear (消失) quickly
from memory.
Too much dreaming can be harmful (有害的). The more we sleep, the longer we dream. The mind is
hard at work when we dream. That is why we may have a long sleep and still wake up tired.

This is an old English saying. Have you heard it before? It means that we must go to bed early in the
evening and get up early in the morning. If we do, we shall be healthy. We shall also be rich (wealthy) and
clever (wise).
Is this true? Perhaps it is. The body must have enough sleep. Children need ten hours" sleep every night.
If you do not go to bed early, you cannot have enough sleep. Then you cannot think properly (适当地)
and you cannot do your work properly. You will not be wise and you may not become wealthy!
Some people go to bed late at night and get up late in the morning. This is not good for them. We must
sleep at night when it is dark. The dark helps us to sleep properly, When the daylight comes, we must get
up. This is the time for exercise. Exercise means doing things with the body. Walking, running, jumping,
swimming, and playing games are all exercise. If the body is not used, it becomes weak. Exercise keeps it
strong. Exercise helps the blood to move around inside the body. This is very important. The brains (大脑)
in our heads also need blood. We think with our brains. If we keep our bodies healthy, and take exercise,
we can think better.
Our bodies also need air to breathe. Without air we die. We must have a lot of clean, fresh air to breathe
if we want to be healthy.
