As a parent of an overweight child, it is your duty to help them lose weight and develop healthy eating and exercise habits. However, correcting the diet habits of your children can become increasingly harder as they age, especially as they become increasingly aware of bad foods like McDonalds and other fast food choices. For this reason, you should aim to help your child lose weight early, and let them grow up with healthy food and exercise habits so that they can make smart decisions as they grow up.
?Avoid pushing new diets on your child.Teach them the basics of good nutrition and exercise, so that he or she has the necessary tools to make the right decisions. You need to facilitate（使容易）that rather than simply force it on your child. Diets may seem like the answer at first, but it is much more useful to teach them correct eating and good nutrition, so you can be a good role model rather than the person that forced a diet on him or her.
?_________________________________.Find ways to get your child more active without stressing him or her out. There are plenty of ways to exercise in a sport or after school activities. Buy your child a skateboard, roller skates, a bicycle, or some other tool so that they can use to enjoy exercise on their own terms. And never force physical activity on them if you do not want the exercise idea to be completely rejected.
?Avoid projecting your feelings onto your child.You may have had body issues as a child, but you do not need to project this onto your child, who is probably already dealing with issues. You do not want to create self image problems in your child if you can help it. Let your child develop his or her own self image rather than forcing your self image issues onto him or her.
71. Parents should help their children lose weight earlier because children __________.
A. haven’t formed their eating habits
B. can’t make their own decisions

A. describing B. exploring C. expressing D. forcing
74. Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. Fast food has nothing to do with overweight.
B. Good habits can help children keep fit.
C. Parents are bad role models for their children.
D. Children usually have self image problems.

阅读快车系列答案The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My belief began when I was just a kid, who 36 becoming a doctor.
My mother was a domestic（佣人）. Through her work, she observed that 37 people spent a lot more time reading than they 38 watching television. She announces that my brother and I 39 watch two to three pre-selected programs during the week. With our 40 time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and 41 written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a 42 . My mother was illiterate（文盲）.
When I entered high school, I was a 43 student, but not for long. I began to like fancy clothes. I wanted to 44 other guys. I went from an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from her various jobs and I 45 about not having enough Italian knit shirts.

d a teacher’s loving devotion.Most recently, it’s very common in students who need a parent present for job interviews．Naturally, it’s easy to blame the students in these situations, but the bigger problem is us． We—as parents—are so eager to shelter our kids that we fail to realize that this in itself is harming them．As the mother of two young sons, I have to remind myself constantly that the biggest responsibility I have as a parent is to help them develop the skills needed to live in, to live without me．So, I’ll let them fail．
I’ll let them fail because as long as they are safe and warm inside their comfort zones, they will never grow．And failure with loss, heartbreak, disappointment, etc —will be part of growth for them．Call me the anti-tiger mom, but leaving them alone is my way of helping them become equipped to fit in this world as we know it today．From terrorism and seemingly endless natural disasters, to our national debt and beyond, if we expect the next generation to stand up to the very real problems of our time, we need to stop feeding them and start teaching them how to fish．
It’s a small price to help them learn a skill they’ll use for the rest of their lives, including when I don’t accompany them on job interviews．

| A．Because they want to protect their kids from difficulties． |

| D．Because their kids strongly request them to do so． |
| A．Sheltering them． |

| A．To make them stronger than other kids． |
| B．To help them grow in this tough world． |

Kids' health: Four steps for fighting stress
Everybody gets stressed time to time. 71 Some ways of dealing with stress 一like screaming or hitting someone一don't solve (解决) much. But other ways, like talking to someone you trust, can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed:
(1) Get support. When you need help, reach out to the people who care about you. Talk to a trusted adult, such as a parent or other relatives. 72 They might have had similar problems, such as dealing with a test, or the death of a beloved pet.
(2) Don't take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves. Oh, dear, that's good idea. Remember that there are always people to help you. Don't take it out on yourself. 73
(3) Try to solve the problem. After you're calm and you have support from adults and friends, it's time to get down to business. 74 Even if you can't solve it all, you can solve a piece of it.
(4) Be positive. Most stress is temporary(暂时的).Remember stress does go away,especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it.
These steps aren't magic, but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time, you'll help yourself feel better even faster. 75
|
A．Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation. |
|
B．Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them. |
|
C．Different people feel stress in different ways |
|
D．Ah, it feels so good when the stress is gone. |
E. You need to figure out what the problem is.
F. And don't forget about your friends.
G. Then, find a way to calm down。

Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A–F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
|
A. Try to visit every school you are considering before applying B. Off-campus life C. Don’t let a lack of fund block your search D. See the campus when it’s alive with activity—warts and all E. College tour is a good choice F. Be proactive |
1.__________________
It is high school spring break season—and if you are a junior (or an overachieving sophomore), chances are you will spend a chunk of your vacation wandering around college campuses with super-enthusiastic, backwards-walking student tour guides.
“As a parent who recently went through this process, I know how stressful these visits can be for both the student and the parent,” Taylor said. “But on the flip side, they can be fun and exciting, as well as offer a great learning experience and a time to bond.”
2.__________________
For students who live far from schools they are interested in, but who may not have the money for personal visits, start by visiting colleges in your area that are similar to your schools of choice. For example, see first-hand how a large, public campus differs from a small private school.
3.__________________
Too often students will choose a college based on word of mouth or one that looks great on paper. But once they arrive, they immediately know it’s a mistake (or the right one!). There are many aspects of campus life that you can’t understand until you actually set foot on campus—such as the surrounding areas, the energy of the students and the quality of the facilities. By visiting beforehand, you’ll assure that you apply only to colleges where you’d actually want to spend four years.
4._________________
To get a true feel for a campus, you should try to experience it on a typical day—when classes are in session and the campus is a buzz with activity. Try not to visit on a weekend or during the school’s spring break, if possible.
5._________________
Since much of the college experience exists outside classroom walls, students should take note of the school’s immediate neighbourhood and of the available amenties in close proximity to the campus—affordable restaurants, museums, movie theatres, concert halls, and shopping areas.
