Experts in childhood nutrition aren’t surprised by an investigation this summer that shows 50%of parents who have overweight children don’t realize their children Weigh too much.Many parents deny their children’s weight because they don’t want to have to change their own eating and exercise habits,says Keith Ayoob, a doctor who works with overweight children and their families in New York City.
Parents frequently ask him whether their children have a thyroid(甲状腺) problem, but that’s rarely the case.“1t’s usually a dietary(有关饮食的) and lifestyle issue.It’s very difficult for parents to deal with their own food issues,”Ayoob says.An estimated 25 million children in the USA are overweight, which puts them at risk of developing diabetes(糖尿病), high blood Pressure and other health problems.A Consumer Reports magazine investigation released on July 25,2009 of 3.048 parents who have children aged 5 to 17 found that 91% say childhood obesity (肥胖) is a problem in the USA.
Only 36%of the parents with heavy children say their family doctors have suggested their children lose weight;the other 64%say the doctors didn’t mention it.“Many parents simply don’t realize their children are overweight.”says Keith Ayoob.“The doctors never told them.Other kids in the class look like their children.and their kids seem pretty healthy.”he says.
He has parents go to the calculator on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website to figure out whether their children are too heavy.

But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn’t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?

Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fat people do not eat more on average (平均) than thinner people. In fact, some investigations (调查), such as a 1990 study of 3,545 London office workers, show that fatter people eat less than slimmer people.
Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group of Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts:
The more the men ran, the more fat they lost.
The more they ran, the more they ate.
Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.

Some people think they need to change how they look or act to feel good about themselves. But actually all you need to do is change the way you see your body and how you think about yourself.
The first thing to do is recognize that your body is your own, no matter what shape, size, or color it comes in. If you’re very worried about your weight or size, go to your doctor to check that things are OK. But it’s no one’s business but your own what your body is like—finally, you have to be happy with yourself.
Next, find which aspects (方面) of your appearance you can change and which you can’t change and need to accept—like their height, for example, or their shoe size.
If there are things about yourself that you want to change and can do this by making goals for yourself. For example, if you want to get fit, make a pan to exercise every day and eat nutritious foods.
When you hear negative comments coming from within yourself, tell yourself to stop. Try building your confidence by listing three things in your day that really gave you pleasure. It can be anything like the way the sun felt on your face, the sound of your favorite band, or the way someone laughed at your jokes.

A study by the Health Protection Agency (HPA) found that some eco-friendly lightbuulbs release levels of ultraviolet (UV) (紫外线) radiation that are above recognized safety limits. The agency urged people who work with lamps nearby to avoid spending more than one hour within a foot of the eco-friendly bulbs. The warning was directed at those using desk lamps for long periods, such as jewellery makers, and others who might have lights close to their faces, such as car mechanics.
John O’Hagan, a scientist at the HPA’s centre for radiation, chemical and environmental dangers, began tests on the ligthbulbs after patient groups raised concern about them. Among the groups were patients with a skin disease called lupus, which makes people highly sensitive to light.
The tests measured UV light from the lamps and found the highest levels of UV radiation, measured 2cm from the lightbulbs, were equivalent to being outside in direct sunlight in the summer. The most immediate risk from the lightbulbs is a reddening of the skin similar to sunburn, but there is also a small increased risk of skin cancer associated with this, again similar to that of sunburn.
The risk of health problems from the lightbulbs was not so high that people should remove them from their homes. People are advised to avoid using open lightbulbs for long close work until the problem is sorted out. It has confirmed that the government will not be reviewing its strategy on introducing energy efficient lightbulbs.
小题1:The underlined word “equivalent” in paragraph 4 most probably means ______.
A.equal | B.vital | C.relevant | D.harmful |
A.stop using eco-friendly lightbulbs at home |
B.avoid using open lightbulbs for long close work |
C.take care not to expose their skin to direct sunlight |
D.urge the government to ban the use of lightbulbs |
A.why people needn’t remove the lightbulbs from their homes |
B.how researchers have planned to sort out the problem |
C.how the government has responded to HPA’s discovery |
D.how long people should work close to the open lightbulbs |
A.health officials issued a warning over common lightbulbs. |
B.jewellery makers should avoid working with the eco-friendly bulbs for more than one hour |
C.John O’Hagan did tests on the lightbulbs with some patients |
D.people are advised to avoid using open lightbulbs for long close work |
When you move, when you feel the weight of your arms and legs and the natural resistance of the objects around you, the “felt” image of yourself starts to become clearer. It is almost as if it were created by your own actions and the feelings they cause.
The image you create for yourself has rather strange proportions(部分); certain parts feel much larger than they look. If you get a hole in one of your teeth, it feels enormous; you are often surprised by how small it looks when you inspect it in the mirror.
Although the “felt” image may not have the shape you see in the mirror, it is much more important. It is the image through which you recognize your physical existence in the world. In spite of its strange proportions, it is all one piece, and since it has a consistent(前后一致的) right and left and atop and bottom, it allows you to locate new feelings when they occur. It allows you to find your nose in the dark and point to a pain.
If the felt image is damaged for any reason—if it is cut in half or lost as it often is after certain strokes (中风)which wipe out recognition of one entire side –these tasks become almost impossible. What is more, it becomes hard to make sense of one’s own visual appearance. If one half of the “felt” image is wiped out or injured, the patient stops recognizing the affected part of his body. It is hard for him to find the location of feelings on that side, and, although he feels the doctor’s touch, he locates it as being on the undamaged side.
小题1:According to the passage the “felt” image the mirror image.
A.is precisely the same as | B.is as clear as |
C.often differens from | D.is always much smaller than |
A.The felt Image is much more important because it helps you locate new feelings. |
B.When you are in bed with your eyes closed, it is not easy to imagine your image. |
C.When you move, the “felt” image of yourself starts to become clearer. |
D.The “felt” image is not so important as the mirror image. |
A.he can’t locate the doctor’s touch on his left side |
B.he can’t locate the doctor’s touch on his right side |
C.he loses his sense of touch on the left side |
D.he loses feeling on both sides |
A.Stroke victims’“felt” images | B.Stroke victims’ mirror images. |
C.The importance of “felt” images | D.The importance of mirror images. |
