Stop Eating Yourself Stupid

We all know that poor nutrition can lead to bad health and even weight gain.1.A recent study has found that what you eat could very likely play a role in how smart you are.

According to the study, rats fed a high-fat diet for 10 days showed signs of weakness and even had trouble finding treats that were waiting for them.2.Actually high-fat diet could weaken our intelligence--- but so can a calorie-restricted diet. The trick appears to lie in finding a nice balance.

Here are ways to achieve that happy balance and make you smarter through diet, exercise and improving your brain power.

3. Aim to get this amount of calories each day. If you need to drop a few pounds, take away the number you get by 400; consume that number of calories each day until you drop the weight.

Eat the right foods in addition to getting the right amount of calories. Aim for healthy foods that include good amounts of protein, fiber, fruits and vegetables, healthy whole grains, healthy fats and plenty of water! Well! 4. Read a book. Try a new recipe. Do some puzzles. These are all good ways to help increase your smarts.

5.Aim for at least three 30-minutes sessions a week. I like simple exercises such as walking, but anything that raises the heart rate is good. You may be fond of music too. Combine them! Some people like to listen to classical music such as Bach or Mozart, but rock music lovers will be happy to learn that this genre can help make you smarter as well.

A. Exercise regularly with happy mind forever.

B. Your health depends on your exercise plan.

C. Don’t forget to exercise your mind while doing so.

D. Now add “l(fā)ack of intelligence” to the list.

E. You may be puzzled whether it has something with us.

F. Remember: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

G. Figure out how many calories you need to maintain your weight.

Recently there had been many reports about teenagers’ safety, in which some of them got hurt and even lost their lives. Besides, it’s necessary for our teenagers to develop self-protection awareness and learn to protect ourselves. But how can we protect ourselves? First of all, we should make a rule to eat healthy food, in case unhealthy food does harm for our health. Second, we should be careful when made friends, especially online. Third, for the sake of our safety and the others’ safety, we should obey the traffic rules. Last but not least, if we are in dangers, we should call the police immediate. All in all, we must keep safety in mind, no matter when and where we are.

One day in my class, the children were busy preparing for the coming concert. Suddenly Patty came up to me and said, “Every year I-g-g-g-get to be a quiet student. The other kids are always in a p-p-p-play or something. This year, I w-w-want to recite a p-p-p-poem myself!”

Watching her eager eyes, I had no way to refuse her request. So I had to promise her that she would have a “reciting” part. That promise proved to be very difficult to keep. None of my books had any proper poems for her. So I had to spend most of the night writing a poem for her. It was not excellent, but it was enough to cope with Patty’s speech problem.

From then on, Patty spent a lot of time practicing the reciting every day. With my help, she made great progress. However, an unexpected thing happened when the concert was about to start. The MC（報(bào)幕員）came to me with anger, waving his printed program. “There has been a mistake! You have listed Patty for a recitation. That girl can’t even say her own name without stuttering.” Because there was not enough time for explanations, I said to him angrily, “We know what we are doing.”

The concert was going very well. When it was time for Patty’s recitation, the MC again said that Patty would embarrass everyone. Losing patience, I shouted to him loudly, “Patty will do her part. You do yours. Just introduce her number.”

The curtain parted to show Patty, excited and confident. In perfect control, Patty uttered each syllable clearly helped by my gestures. At last, she made her bow, with tears in her eyes.

The curtain closed. At first silence held the audience, then the silence gave way to warm and lasting applause. Patty threw her arms around me and said to me excitedly, “We d-d-d-did it!”

1. What was the challenge for Patty to prepare for the concert?

A. She hadn’t enough time to practice.

B. She wasn’t popular with the students in her class.

C. She couldn’t recite words clearly owing to stuttering.

D. There weren’t proper poems for her at all.

2.The author yelled at the MC loudly because_____.

A. he made a mistake about the printed program

B. he showed no respect for the author

C. he didn’t list Patty for a recitation

D. he was unwilling to include Patty in the performing list

3.From the passage we can learn that_____.

A. where there is a will, there is a way

B. experience is the mother of wisdom

C. strike while the iron is hot

D. the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak

Our “Mommy and Me” time began two years ago. My next-door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down. “I wish I could take one of my children out alone,” said Christie.

Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I’ll watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine, I’ll take someone out.

The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of “Mommy and Me” time. Christie’s daughter, McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children asked her tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “She’s like a different child when there’s no one else around,” Christie shared with me quickly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didn’t have to make an effort to gain attention.

Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone times. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently. My stuttering（口吃的）son, Tom, doesn’t stutter once during our activities since he doesn’t have to struggle for a chance to speak. And the other son, Sam, who’s always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.

The “Mommy and Me” time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child ---talking, sharing, and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves to be an only child at least once in a while.

1.What is the text mainly about?

A. The happy life of two families.

B. The experience of the only child being with mother.

C. The advantage of spending time with one child at a time

D. The basic needs of children.

2.Right after McKenzie came back, the other children were _____________.

A. happy B. curious C. regretful D. friendly

3.What is one of the changes the author finds in her children?

A. Tom has less difficulty in speaking.

B. Sam holds her hand more often.

C. The daughter acts like a leader.

D. The boys become better followers.

4.The author seems to believe that ___________.

A. having brothers and sisters is fun

B. parents should watch others’ children

C. it’s tiring to look after three children

D. every child needs parents’ full attention

Two years before, I traveled to Brazil and I rented for a car. Unfortunate, I had an accident and hit another car, and I needed to stay in a hospital for at least two week. I called my parents, so I did not tell them what had happened. I knew that they will be worried about myself because I was so farther away, and that my mother would not sleep if she knew. Therefore, I told them interested stories and how I was enjoying Brazil. As a result, nobody knew truth. I still think that it was the right thing to do.
