       Many facts suggest that children are overweight (超重的) and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
       Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.
       There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.
       There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime (消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.
       The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.
【小题1】According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?
A.Those who often take exercise.

A.Children can’t choose what to eat.
B.Children are too busy to go out and play.
C.Children’s parents often cook meals for them.
D.There are too many fast food shops around.
【小题3】What does the underlined word “steering” in the last sentence most probably mean?
A.Forcing.B.Guiding.
C.Driving.D.Moving.
【小题4】What’s the main purpose of the text?
A.To tell a story.B.To provide facts.

Happy Village Project


What is Happy Village?

Our company develops and focuses on the regional “Happy Village Project” strategy to focus on villages rather than individual farmers. The philosophy of the Happy Village Project is to “heal and develop” by organizing the farmers and training them on growing and harvesting techniques which increase raw-material quality and meet the requirements of consumers being conscious of healthy diet. Today, there are more than 3,000 registered farmers, cultivating more than 11,000 hectares of land in more than 150 villages in our Happy Village Project.


In the agricultural project, small farmers get the tools, training and support they need to grow some of the finest produce on earth. Our team of experts trains, guides and monitors the registered farmers, using the latest techniques to ensure the highest level of quality and consistency of our eco-friendly and safe products.


What do we do at Happy Villages?

Our company experts do researches to choose the right district by recording the details of the fields and products and train farmers who are willing to learn about organic farming.

We draw maps of the fields in order to designate the field and also to prevent possible crosscontamination (交叉污染) risks which may come from the neighbor fields. In order to make sure farmers are practicing the organic regulations, our experts frequently and randomly visit registered farmers to follow up, guide and inspect. Our agriculture team is also involved in using “Early Warning Systems” in the fields, in order to minimize the risk of potential problems as well as taking samples from leaves, soil and fruit, in order to monitor the field throughout the year.

We also help entire villages flourish through our commitment to social responsibility by means of performing necessary activities to improve the socio-economic structure of the villages, like the needs and requirements of the children at school, improvement in workers’ buildings, providing water tanks during water crisis in the regions, and etc.


From our Happy Villages directly to your table!

Our happy Village products are grown, harvested and sun-dried in the fertile mountains. With the best soil and growing conditions, these all natural products are sweet and flavorful, with no artificial additives. They are a great choice for snacking or adding to your favorite recipes.

Fresh fruit juice has become increasingly popular in many diets - especially among those consumers who are pressed for time and concerned about their health.Fruit juice has also been linked to beliefs that it can help people lose weight.But is juicing really as healthy as we think?

A recent study reveals hard truths about fruit juice.

All fruits contain sugars and don’t seem to have harmful effects unless they contribute to excess(过量的)daily calories.This is because the fiber which is found in whole fruit is undamaged,and the sugar is contained within the fruit’s cells.It takes our digestive system a while to break these cells down and for sugar to enter the bloodstream.

This is not the case with fruit juice.Different from whole fruit,the natural sugar in fruit juice counts as “free sugars”,just like honey and added sugars.With the fiber removed,fruit juice’s sugar is absorbed more quickly.A sudden rise of blood sugar causes the pancreas(胰腺)to release insulin(胰岛素)to bring it back down to a normal level.Over time,this system can wear out,increasing the risk of developing type-2 diabetes(糖尿病).

In 2013,after analysing the health data of 100,000 people collected bet ween 1986 and 2009,researchers found that fruit juice consumption was linked with increased risk of type-2 diabetes.They’ve concluded that even when fruit juice is similar in the nutritional content to whole fruit,fruit juice leads to faster and larger changes in insulin levels since liquids pass through the stomach faster than solids.

“Although fruit juice is better than no fruit at all,there are lots of limits,” said Dr.Amy Smith,professor of medicine at the University of Virginia.“It particularly comes with risks when we consume more than I50ml of free sugars per day,or when it puts us over our recommended calorie intake.It provides us with vitamins - but fruit juice is far from a quick fix.”

【小题1】What leads to the increasing fruit juice popularity?
A.Experts’ recommendation.B.Its obvious medical effects.
C.Its assumed benefits to health.D.People’s improved life quality.
【小题2】Why is whole fruit healthier?
A.It provides better nutrition.B.Its fiber slows sugar absorption.
C.It protects our digestive system.D.Its fiber helps remove extra sugar.
【小题3】How did researchers draw the conclusion in 2013?
A.By observing the blood sugar level.
B.By comparing liquid and solid intake.
C.By analysing previously collected data.
D.By interviewing type-2 diabetes patients.
【小题4】What is Dr. Smith’s attitude to fruit juice?
A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Objective.D.Unclear.

Eating red meat is associated with cancer and heart disease, but are the risks big enough to quit burgers and steak? Probably not. According to a series of papers published in October 2019, researchers argue that the increased risks are slight and uncertain, and that cutting back likely wouldn't be worth it for people who enjoy meat.

Those conclusions conflict established advice. The new work does not say red or processed meats like hot dogs and bacon are healthy, or that people should eat more of them. The teams reviews of past studies generally support the ties to cancer, heart disease and other bad health outcomes. But the authors say the evidence is weak, and that there's not much certainty meat is really the cause, since other diet and lifestyle factors could be at play.

Most people who understand the risks would say "Thanks very much, but I'm going to keep eating my meat, "said co-author Dr Gordon Guyatt of McMaster University in Canada.

It's the latest example of how controversial(有争议的) nutrition research has become, with its uncertainties leaving the door open for conflicting advice. Critics say findings aren't backed by strong evidence. Defenders counter(反驳)that nutrition studies can rarely be conclusive because of the difficulty of measuring the effects of any single food, but that methods have improved.

Based on their analyses, a group of the international researchers said people do not have to cut back for health reasons. But they noted that their own advice is weak, and acknowledged that they didn't take into account other factors, such as animal welfare and the environment.

There was disagreement even among the authors. Three of the fourteen researchers said they support reducing red and processed meats. A co-author of one of the reviews is also among those who called for a publication delay.

As for his own diet, Dr Gordon Guyatt, a member of the international research team that conducted the reviews, said he no longer thinks red or processed meats have significant health risks. But he said he still avoids them out of habit, and for animal welfare and environmental reasons.

【小题1】What can we learn from the recent research?
A.Decreasing meat consumption will be of worth.
B.Red meat may not have significant health risks.
C.The report authors have reached an agreement.
D.Consuming red meat is beneficial to health.
【小题2】Guyatt's avoiding red meats has the weakest connection with_________.
A.health risksB.diet habits
C.animal welfareD.environmental protection
【小题3】What is the best title for the passage?
A.Red Meat and a Healthy LifeB.How to Avoid Eating Red Meat?
C.Less Red Meat, More Healthy DietsD.How Risky is Eating Red Meat?
【小题4】What is the authors purpose in writing the passage
A.To introduce a new relationship between health and eating red meat.
B.To convince more people to keep away from eating red meat regularly.
C.To present a new and different view on the effects of eating red meat.
D.To criticize nutrition studies for lacking of strong and conclusive evidence.
