I have enjoyed reading very much since I was a little
schoolboy. Many of
my spare time is spent reading,instead with watching
TV. As a middle school.
student, I very busy with my lessons. So during the
weekday, I have little
time to read those books I am interested in them. On
Sundays, however, I
often seat at my desk reading for hours. Sometimes, I
lose myself so deep
in books that I forget to have meals. My sister and
brother always considered
me as a bookworm. But I still believe reading bring me
a lot of knowledge,
strength, as well as pleasure.

A little stress is good, since it helps you keep motivated to meet your goals. However, too much stress is bad for your health. Stress needs to be managed in order to prevent anxiety (焦虑). Here are some tips on how to manage stress.
Write it out
Write down everything that seems stressful, and ways to deal with each problem. You’ll find a things-to-do list much easier to manage than having all messed up in your head. Write down the tasks along with the specific times when you can do them.
One task at a time
Give each task all your attention while you’re doing it, and forget the rest. This will keep you from feeling anxious about things you have left to do. Thinking about other tasks only adds unnecessary stress, and can even stop you from doing the task you’re busy with at present. You don’t need to do everything all at once, or on your own. The feeling of being pressed to finish something on time will somehow disappear if someone is there to help you.
Give yourself a reward
Rewarding yourself for what you’ve already done, no matter how small, is a great way to motivate yourself to keep going. It will reduce stress, and make you happier to go on with the next task.
Give yourself a break
Breaks of ten to fifteen minutes are important. Visit a cafe or take a quick walk —anything to take your mind off the work for a while. If you need to stay at work, sit with your eyes closed and imagine a peaceful place or some other relaxing scenes. This will remove the stress from your muscles and mind.

People are overweight for many reasons, the most
important one of which is that they eat the wrong foods, get the wrong types of
calories per meal, and they also eat meals at the wrong time each day. Food is
more powerful than any weight loss pill, because the food that you eat can
either make you thin or fat. This is true because your body is like an engine,
and it only needs certain foods at certain intervals(间隔)each day. Low-calorie Diets Do Not
Work
The reason people cannot lose
weight by starving themselves is that their metabolism(新陈代谢)will detect any major drop in
calories and it will then adjust(调整)itself by burning
fewer calories each day. That is the reason why you can eat 1,000 calories per
day and not lose any weight, while your friends can eat 2,500 calories per day
and not gain any weight.
Low-fat Diets Do Not Work
Many people in today’s
society are buying mostly low- fat or non-fat food at the grocery store.
Everybody knows how much fat is inside the food they buy. However, people are
getting fatter than ever before by doing this. They are not losing weight by
changing to this low fat lifestyle.
Losing weight has nothing to
do with these things. One of the most important things you can do to control
your weight is to eat the proper foods, such as fruit and vegetables, eat them
at the right time, and exercise every day. If people make this a habit, they
will lose weight.
1.What is the main reason why people are overweight?
A．They eat the wrong foods at the wrong time. B．They eat food with lots of calories. C．They don’t take any weight loss pills. D．They burn many calories every day.

A．tell readers not to buy low-fat or non-fat food B．tell readers how to lose weight C．tell readers about an important scientific discovery D．call on people to lose weight and stay healthy
