Question

阅读理解。

     A shocking number of children are overweight and obese, and doctors are seeing increasingly high levels
of cholesterol (胆固醇) in children, even those with no family history of high cholesterol. To help your kids
maintain a healthy diet and healthy cholesterol levels, you need to do the following.
     Pack their lunches
     That way you can at least try to ensure they get something healthy instead of the fried and starchy (富含
淀粉的) food that dominate most school cafeterias. The three most common food ordered in elementary
school cafeterias are ground beef (碎肉), chicken nuggets (鸡肉块) and cheese.
     Limit fast food
     Set a limit of no more than one or two fast-food meals a month, and when you do make a fast-food visit,
push the salads, plain baked potatoes, and broiled chicken. If the kids must have hamburgers, order them
without cheese.
     Forget white
     White bread, white rice, white pasta, that is. Serve them peanut butter and jelly on whole wheat bread and
meatballs on whole wheat pasta.
     Make it easy
     Cut up a bowl of fruit and put is before your TV-gazing kids. They'll eat it as if it were popcorn (爆米花).
Better yet, turn the TV off and serve the fruit to them after they've finished a bike ride around the block.
     Set an example
     The best way to make sure your kids live a heart-healthy lifestyle is to live one yourself. That could be
more rewarding to see benefits not only to your cholesterol, but to your children's as well.
