 After a recent survey, about 40% of the students like English teachers who are creative with diverse, lively and interesting teaching methods. About 28% of them prefer the young, friendly and humorous teachers. About 20% of them think English teacher should equal treatment of students£¬ and another 20% of them consider that English teacher should have no preference for excellent students. And only about 7% of them prefer Eng?lish teachers who are very careful, always willing to help and encourage them.

  This investigation shows that,with the Eng?lish educational style changed£¬the students in mid?dle schools now put forward higher requirements to their ideal English teachers. Love,patience, hard work£¬learning and other qualities have become the necessary conditions of teachers. Students now value the teacher's teaching skills and ability, in the hope that they can acquire knowledge in a re?laxed atmosphere.

 It is a race which can only have one winner. Who will be the first man to "spot" 10,000 of Britain's species of wildlife?

 In the green corner is Jonty Denton, who has "spotted" 9£¬947 wild species. And in the other green corner is David Gibbs, who is rapidly catching up with 9,444 species. The pair are now locked in a battle to see who will be the first to break through the 10,000 mark. Overseeing (¼à¶½) the contest is Mark Telfer, who runs a website which is tracking their progress.

 Around a quarter of the species on Dr Denton's list are beetles. Two of the beetles listed, as well as a spider, have never previously been recorded in Britain until discovered by Dr Den?ton.

He has also drawn up a wish list of the five he wants to see most£¬which is given extra ex?citement because he knows that two of them have already been seen by Mr Gibbs. One is the Pallas' Sandgrouse. When it appeared Mr Gibbs travelled to see it from his then home in Berk?shire. The other is a ghost orchid, a rare flower.

 Dr Denton's strategy to reach 10,000 is to look closer to his home,in the garden in front of his house in Four Monks, Hampshire. He says, "There are hundreds of tiny things that I could find in my own pond.¡±

 Species spotting is only one of his many hobbies. He also has a collection of 1,600 model aircraft, 100 model trains and 100 toy tanks and trucks. He also says, "I don't go to pubs and don't drink. You'd be amazed how much time people waste doing those sorts of things.¡±

  You are what you eat and fats are a main food for Asia's fast-food generation. Dr. Chwang, director of the Department of Food Nutrition,says children are consuming more meat and soft drinks. This is a thorough departure from the traditional diet of vegetables and rice and little meat. "They like big pieces of fried meat with a soft drink. So although they may eat the same volume of food,their calorie intake(¿¨Â·ÀïÉãÈëÁ¿) has increased. Now about 40 to 45 percent of their calories come from fat¡±£¬says Chwang.

 Although on the whole Asians tend towards thinness,culture¨Dnamely Asians' hospitality (ºÃ¿Í) Ò»is the reason for the fatness of today's generation, according to Chwang. " Asian people love food," she says. "Eating and drinking are important social and family functions.¡± In the past,however, big meals were only hosted on special occasions as people were more careful with money. In today's climate of wealth and remarkable consumption, 10-course meals are no longer reserved for significant occasions.

 More than anyone else,Children are on the receiving end of their parents' improved cir?cumstances. "In the past,people had four or more children¨Dnow,they have one or two,so they tend to spoil them," says Chwang. "The easiest way is to give them quality food. Parents think feeding them well is showing their love. They feel bad when their children look thin.¡±

 When describing the physical condition of most overweight Asian children, Chwang says, "There is a clear relationship between fatness and indoor play. Children get fat because they don't move,and eventually, they don't want to move because they are fat.¡±

 Thanks to technology, a growing army of children prefer video games to old outdoor sports. " What do children do when watching TV or sitting in front of the computer playing video games? They eat chocolate and drink Coke," says Chwang.
