Parents and doctors have the same worry over especially low birthweight newborns.
Between 1993 and 1995, Atul Singhal of the Institute of Child Health and his colleagues researched 299 full-term newborns, each of whom weighed very little for their age. The babies’ moms had decided not to breastfeed (用母乳喂养).
No matter how big a child is at birth, he or she will probably reach the same adult height no matter how quickly the baby grows. But reaching one’s adult size at a slow-to-moderate speed may have a lot of benefits, as Singhal says.
A.The results were quite surprising. |
B.These babies have very little energy because they are so small. |
C.His advice to parents: Be patient. Don’t rush a child’s growth. |
D.Half of these children were given a normal infant (幼儿) formula for 9 months. |
E.Six to eight years later, the researchers gave the children a series of measurements and tests. |
Do you want to be in good health? Try to do the following things! You can become stronger.
Drink eight cups of water every day. Water helps your body in many ways. It isn’t right to drink water only when you are thirsty.
Don’t forget to eat your breakfast. Breakfast gives you everything your body needs for the morning. So, do not forget your breakfast and eat something good.
Get enough calcium (钙). Your bones (骨头) need it. Milk has more calcium, so drink a cup of milk before you sleep every day. You can also get it from the sunshine. If it is a sunny day, you should go out to enjoy the sunshine.
Go for a walk every day after meals. If you eat too much, you should take a walk. It’s also good exercise for children and old people, because they can’t do some of the difficult sports. It’s best to walk half an hour after having dinner.
Have a rest for about twenty minutes when you are tired. You may do something different to have a rest. For example, get out and walk, or sit down to listen to music. It’s bad for our health to work and sit for a long time.
Try to do the things above! You can become stronger.

Have you ever bought Genki Forest(元气森林)sparkling water because it’s advertised as “sugar-free? It’s popular among students. The company recently apologized for a misleading advertisement.
The company said the drinks are “sucrose-free”(零蔗糖), but this is not the same as “sugar-free”. Now the company has changed the words “sugar-free” to “low sugar” on the bottles.
In fact, there are many kinds of sugar. Sucrose is just one of them. Other kinds of sugar, such as fructose(果糖)(糖醇), are still in Genki Forest drinks. These types of sugar are used as sweetener(甜味剂). They offer little energy, but also avoid taking in too much sugar.
However, studies find that the sweeteners might make people eat more. When you eat sweet-tasting things, it sends your brain a “sweet signal”! Then your brain tells your body to prepare itself to take in energy. But since the diet soft drink has little energy, you will feel hungry and start getting energy by eating more food.
According to China Daily, drinking too many diet drinks might lead to obesity(肥胖)and type 2 diabetes(糖尿病). It’s time for you to think twice about the diet drink trend.
