Allan is a doctor. He is taking notes (记笔记) about the lifestyles of two children, Angela and Andy.

Angela: The girls looks healthy. She knows how to keep fit. She gets up early even (即使) at weekends. And enough exercise makes her fit. She doesn’t eat fast food very often.

But sometimes she eats snacks between meals. Are most girls greedy (嘴馋的)? She should eat less snacks. They are not good for her. She can eat some fruit between meals.

Andy: Andy likes sports. He is good at swimming and football. He does sports for more than 1 hour every day. That makes him fit and strong.

But Andy is a picky eater (挑食者). He doesn’t eat enough meat for meals. He can’t get enough energy. So he is not tall. And he has another problem—sleeping in (睡过头,迟起床). He gets up too late on Saturdays and Sundays.

I shall tell Andy to get up early and eat more meat.
