Llosa's Nobel Prize Settles an Old Score

　　Mario Vargas Llosa, 74, received a phone call early in the morning on October 7 when he was preparing to set out on a walk through Central Park in New York．He was informed that he had won the Nobel Prize for Literature．

　　Initially, however, he thought it was a joke．It was because, as the Peruvian told the BBC, “a writer shouldn't think about the Nobel Prize as it is bad for one's writing”．

　　He told AP that the honor would not affect him．“I don't think the Nobel Prize will change my writing, my style, my themes,” he said．“(But)it's a good way to start a New York Day．”

　　Vargas Llosa is one of the most celebrated writers of the Spanish-speaking world．He has written more than 30 novels, plays and essays, including The Breen House and The War of the End of the World．Both of these are available in Chinese translation．His work “vividly examines the dangers of power and corruption in Latin America”, according to The NEW York Times．

　　Vargas Llosa realized that he wanted to be a writer when he was a child, after reading an adventure novel by Jules Verne．At 15, he was a crime reporter．He later lived in exile in many European countries．

　　In 1990, he ran for the presidency in Peru, but lost badly．On October 7 Vargas Llosa told Reuters that he had never wanted to be a politician but felt it was an obligation for a writer to participate in public debate．”

　　He is frequently mentioned with Colombian writer Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the author of the classic work A Hundred Years of Solitude．Garcia Marquez won the literature Nobel in 1982, the last South American to do so．

　　Their relationship has involved one of greatest feuds(不和)in literary history．In a famous 1976 incident at a theater in Mexico City, Vargas Llosa punched Marguea, leaving him with a black eye．The two have reportedly not spoken in decades．

　　After the Nobel announcement, Garcia MARQUEZ wrote “now we're even” in Spanish on his microblog．

Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.

Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded （包围） by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take-away food.

There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.

There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food．What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.

The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.

According to the text, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food?

A．Those who often take exercise.

B．Those who often watch television.

C．Those who often have meals at home.

D．Those who often walk to school.

The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because

A．their parents often cook meals for them

B．they are too busy to go out and play

C．they can' t choose what to eat

D．there are too many fast food shops around

The word "steering" underlined in the last sentence most probably means _______.

A．forcing B．guiding C．driving D．moving

The main purpose of the text is to _________.

A．tell a story B．provide facts C．give advice D．compare opinions
