     Food is important (重要) for everyone,but not everyone has time to think about which food is 
good. Many Americans think that fast food is very convenient (方便的). They like to have lunch 
at places like McDonald's. They eat fast food about twice a week. They want to buy the most 
delicious fast food, not the healthiest (最健康) food.          
     Now each American eats about three hamburgers and four bags of potato chips     every week.
 That is why more and more people are becoming fat. Most Americans know that fast food isn't 
good for them, but it seems that they can't stop eating it. In fact,more and more people are eating 
fast food. 96% of American primary school students know about McDonald's. In America, 33% 
of the children are too heavy. This makes it hard (困难) for them to move around and go up and 
down stairs (楼梯). They will have health problems (健康问题) later in life. Of course it's not only 
young people who are getting heavier. It's all Americans.
