Eating healthy is important, because it can lower disease risks ,give us more energy, in- crease productivity as well as strengthen our bodies. It is true that eating healthy is expensive, but there are tricks to spare your savings account. Here are some ways we eat more healthy while keeping it cheap.
Switch to Tap Water. Check the price of water on your tap water bill Now check the price of bottled water. Quite a difference ,isn't it? So why not give up the soda and drink water? Eat Eggs. Eggs are full of vitamins, high in proteins but low in price. Buy Tuna (金枪鱼)Cans. Canned tuna is cheap and contains as much protein as meat. Buy Ordinary Food. The box of ordinary food might be less attractive, but it's certainly more attractive to your wallet. On the contrary, brand-name food is always more expensive.
Go to One Grocery Store. This grocery store is cheaper for meat, that grocery store is cheaper for vegetables, another grocery store is cheaper for fish... How many grocery stores are you going to, trying to find the cheapest food? Stop losing a day shopping. Go to a big grocery store near your place. It hasn't the lowest price for all foods, but it saves your time and fuel.
Eat Less. It is obvious that the less you eat, the lower your grocery bill is. If you're over-weight ,go on a diet. Your health and bank account will thank you.
Don't Buy Junk Food. Stop buying anything that comes out of a box. It's expensive, what's worse,it's harmful to your health!
From above we can see that all of us can keep a balance between eating healthy and keeping it cheap as long as we pay attention to some tricks.

The African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on the earth, is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原) surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.
It is the elephant’s great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas(热带草原). In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters.
Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well.
What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.
