As parents, we like to make sure that our children are eating well and getting all the nutrients(营养)they need. Children need two to three kinds of vegetables every day.

A simple way to get our children to eat vegetables is by eating them ourselves. Following our example, they may start eating vegetables themselves. Don't say things like, "If you eat your vegetables, you can have dessert. "These methods work for a little while but can possibly lead them to hate vegetables more. Give your children new varieties of foods which will help them develop a taste for trying new things.

Sometimes the simple things just don't work. We have to start becoming a little creative to make our children eat vegetables. By doing this in the beginning when children are small, we will help them learn to love vegetables.

Think of creative ways to make children eat vegetables. For example, cut up vegetables like carrots, cucumbers and place them in a creative way on a plate for an afternoon snack(零食). Or try using cheese sauce either by dipping(蘸) the vegetables in it or by putting the cheese right on top of cooked or raw vegetables.

If you prefer, you can also add a teaspoon (茶匙)of sugar on top of cooked green beans and peas to make them taste a little sweeter. Doing this shouldn't lead to a sweet tooth as long as you only give them a small amount.

If you have children that refuse to eat vegetables, some of these suggestions I've listed will help to turn that around. In the end, you're not only just getting them to eat vegetables, you're also helping them to live a healthier lifestyle.

Big storms, high waves, technical failures, loneliness, After battling hard times and danger for over nine months. British teenager Mike Perham made history last month as the youngest person to sail solo (单独) around the world.

The 17-year-old made the record after he cleared the Panama Canal ( 巴拿马运河) and then sailed through the Caribbean and home across the Atlantic.

Mike is only three months younger than Zac Sunderland. the 17-year-old American boy who had taken the crown as the youngest solo around-the-world sailor in July.

Mike may be young, but he is no stranger to sailing adventures. He picked up the hobby at age 6 when his father took him out in a small boat on a local lake. Father and son sailed separate boats across the Atlantic when Mike was 14, making him the youngest person to cross that ocean solo. That record gave him the taste for this even greater challenge.

On the recent journey. the scariest moment for Mike came when his sailboat was hit by storms in the southem Indian Ocean.

"We were picked up by what felt like a 60-foot wave and threw down on our side at 90 degrees," he said.

"It felt like I was going right over. Stuff was flying around and I just thought 'Oh no'".

At other times, he had to dive into the Pacific and fix problems. He tied himself to the boat, jumped into the water and went to work with a knife in 30-second dives undemeath (在......之下) the boat to cut a rope away.

Bernice Gallego sat down one day this summer, as she
does pretty much every day, and began listing items on eBay.
She dug into a box and pulled out a baseball card. She stopped
for a moment and admired the picture. "Red Stocking B.B Club
of Cincinnati," the card read, under the reddish brown color
photo of lo men with their socks pulled up to their knees.
As a collector and seller, it's her job to spot old items that
might have value today. It's what Bernice, 72, and her husband,
Al Gallego, 80, have been doing since 1974 at their California
antique (古玩) store.

     This card, she figured, was worth selling on eBay. She took a picture, wrote a description and put it up for
auction (拍卖). She put a $10 price tag on it, deciding against $15 because it would have cost her an extra 20
cents. Later that night she got a few odd inquiries-someone wanting to know whether the card was real,
someone wanting her to end the auction and sell him the card immediately.
     The card is actually 139 years old. Sports card collectors call the find "extremely rare" and estimate the card
could fetch five, or perhaps, six figures at auction.
    Just like that, Bernice is the least likely character ever for a rare-baseball card story. "I didn't even know
baseball existed that far back," Gallego says, "I don't think that I've ever been to a baseball game." The theory is
that the card came out of a storage space they bought a few years back. It is not uncommon in their line of work
to buy the entire contents of storage units for around $200.
     When she met with card trader Rick Mirigian, she found out what the card was-an 1869 advertisement with
a picture of the first professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings.
     "When I came to meet her and she took it out of a sandwich bag and she was smoking a cigarette, I almost
fainted," Mirigian says. "They've uncovered a piece of history that few people will ever be able to imagine. That
card is history. It's like unearthing a Mona Lisa or a Picasso."

[ ]

A. Bernice had to pay some fees for her card on eBay.
B. Bernice wanted to end the auction that night.
C. Bernice decided to sell the card for $15.
D. eBay charged her 20 cents for the card.

[ ]

D. Bernice didn't realize the value of the card until she put it up for auction

[ ]

A. A Surprisingly Valuable Discovery

D. The History of the Baseball Card

For the past two decades. New York has been an inspiration to other American cities. Yes, New York had a lot of crime, but somehow it also still had neigh neighborhoods, and a central area for walking. Lately, though, as far as the pedestrian （行人） issues go. New York is acting more like the rest of America, and the rest of America is acting more like the once-inspiring New York.

As a New Yorker who has spent two years researching roads and transportation across the United States, 1 am saddened lo see our city falling behind places like downtown Albuquerque, where one-way streets have become more pedestrian-friendly two-way streets, and car lanes are replaced by bike lanes, with bike racks everywhere. Then there is Grand Rapids, Midi. , which has a walk-able downtown with purposely limited parking and is home to a new bus square. In Indianapolis, an urban walking and biking road will soon link inner-city neighborhoods something New York certainly hasn't tried.

We have lost our golden pedestrian touch in New York mostly because we still think about traffic as though it were 1950, and we needed Robert Moses to plow a few giant freeways through town to get the cars moving again. But the fact is that more roads equal more traffic. New Yorkers always find good reasons to drive. Public transportation is dirty, time-consuming, unsafe. Walking takes too long. The children will be late for school. But choosing the car is no longer safe ― for your children who already don’t get enough exercise, for anyone’s lungs or for the future of New York as a livable place. We’ve already lost a lot of New York to traffic. If New Yorkers don’t get out of their cars soon, the city’s future residents won’t have a reason to.

A．used to be a good example for other cities to follow in road design

B．is still an inspiration to other American cities in city design

C．used to have a lot of crimes and the city was too crowded with cars

D．is learning from the rest of America to improve its transportation

73．It can be inferred from the passage that______.

A．New York has built a road for walking and biking

B．in Albuuuerque, the streets have become one-way streets

C．the city of New York is now terribly crowded with cars

D．parking is not allowed in the center of Grand Rapids, Mich.

A．New Yorkers prefer driving to walking or taking buses

B．taking buses lakes a long lime and is not safe and clean

C．the more roads there are, the more traffic there will be

75．The author of the passage suggests that ______.

A．more freeways be built to get the cars moving again

D．New Yorkers should replace their cars with bicycles
