Rules on how to be a fit kid
Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical exercise, and has a healthy weight. 1.If you’re a kid who wants to be fit, here are three rules to live by.
1. Eat a variety of foods.
You may have a favorite food, but the best choice is to eat a variety. 2. Taste new foods and old ones you haven’t tried for a while. Some foods, such as green vegetables, are more pleasing the older you get. Shoot for at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day---- two fruits and three vegetables.
2. 3.
What does it feel like to be full? When you’re eating, notice how your body feels and when your stomach feels comfortably full. Sometimes, people eat too much because they don’t notice when they need to stop eating. 4.And over a period of time, overeating can lead to unhealthy weight gain.
3. Limit screen time.
What’s screen time? It’s the amount of time you spend watching TV or DVDs, playing video games, and using the computer. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the less time available for active stuff, like basketball, bike riding and swimming. 5.
These rules aren’t magic. However, follow them most of the time and you can become a fit kid sooner or later.
A. Drink water and milk.
B. Listen to your body.
C. Eating too much can make you feel uncomfortable.
D. There’re a lot of discussions these days about fit kids.
E. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen time.
F. Ask your parents to help you do your favorite activities regularly.
G. If you eat different foods, you’re more likely to get the nutrients your body needs.
Mark Zukerberg is the founder and CEO of Facebook, an extremely popular social working website that started in the United States.
Now, millions of student users visit Facebook daily and the website is one of the top ten most widely visited sites on the internet worldwide. College and high school students use Facebook to communicate with friends and share both information and pictures for free. The company earns money through advertising.
Many other companies have been rumored(谣传) to be interested in buying Facebook. Just a few years after Mark started the company, he was approached by Terry Semel, who was the CEO of Yahoo. Terry offered Mark one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) to sell Facebook to Yahoo. Mark said no, though. He lives for his dream even at the very beginning. He knows this. Maybe he was smart. Now Facebook is rumored to be worth billions of dollars and bigger companies like Microsoft or Google want a share of the company. Some private firms are also interested. Facebook could sell 15 billion dollars if Mark decided to sell it at all. Perhaps Mark will just keep working from his California office to continue his dream of building something cool.

Why do we like drinking water from plastic bottles（塑料瓶）? Some people think it is healthy and clean. Others drink bottled water because it’s easy — you can carry it around with you. In hot countries, like Greece, we often buy bottles of cold water in the summer.
However, making lots of plastic is not a good idea for many reasons. First of all, we need a lot of oil for plastic products. We usually use oil as a source of energy. If we reduced the number of bottles we made, we wouldn’t need so much oil. Plastic bottles also pollute the environment. If we reused all our plastic bottles, we wouldn’t need so much space for rubbish dumps. But in Greece, we don’t reuse much of the plastic we use. In 2006, Greeks reused only about 10% of plastic waste. The rest became rubbish on land and in rivers and seas.
So next time you want to throw away a plastic bottle in the litter bin, stop and think. If you reuse it, you would help the environment. But what can you do when there isn’t a bin near you? Well, there are lots of useful ways that you can use your bottles again. For example, an empty bottle makes a great piggy bank for your pocket money, and if you cut a bottle in half, you will have a plant pot. Go green! You can make a difference.
1.What is not mentioned about bottled water in this passage?
A. It’s healthy. B. It’s clean.
C. It’s easy. D. It’s expensive.
2.Plastic products are made from ________.
A. energy B. oil
C. rubbish D. plants
3.Which is the best way to deal with used plastic bottles?
A. To reuse them. B. To make a piggy bank.
C. To make a plant pot. D. To drop them into the river.
4.The underlined part in this passage tells us “________”.
A. To make a different life, you’d better go outside.
B. To look different, you’d better wear green clothes.
C. To protect the environment, you can do something.
D. To go green, you should use plastic products.
