As a parent of an overweight child, it is your duty to help them lose weight and develop healthy eating and exercise habits. However, correcting the diet habits of your children can become increasingly harder as they age, especially as they become increasingly aware of bad foods like McDonalds and other fast food choices. For this reason, you should aim to help your child lose weight early, and let them grow up with healthy food and exercise habits so that they can make smart decisions as they grow up.

Teach them the basics of good nutrition and exercise, so that he or she has the necessary tools to make the right decisions. You need to facilitate（使容易）that rather than simply force it on your child. Diets may seem like the answer at first, but it is much more useful to teach them correct eating and good nutrition, so you can be a good role model rather than the person that forced a diet on him or her.

Find ways to get your child more active without stressing him or her out. There are plenty of ways to exercise in a sport or after school activities. Buy your child a skateboard, roller skates, a bicycle, or some other tool so that they can use to enjoy exercise on their own terms. And never force physical activity on them if you do not want the exercise idea to be completely rejected.

You may have had body issues as a child, but you do not need to project this onto your child, who is probably already dealing with issues. You do not want to create self image problems in your child if you can help it. Let your child develop his or her own self image rather than forcing your self image issues onto him or her.

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）。

Many students find it hard to make friends when they are in high school. Keeping my suggestions in mind may give you a hand. They certainly helped me, and by the end of my three years of high school, I had formed my group of friends, with whom I still keep in touch now.

Here are my tips:

Say hello anytime I see an acquaintance（相识的人）.

Because I was always smiling and greeting the people I knew, people naturally thought I was friendly（though I am not naturally sociable）. And high school students want to be friends with sociable people.

Take the first step.

All the girls there already knew each other—they didn't need another friend. But I did, so I had to make the effort. I had to be the first one to invite somebody to go to a movie with me, or come to my house. Once I did that they started to respond with the same thing.

Use classes to get to know people.

I met most of my first friends because I sat next to them in class. Class（before, after, or even during class time）is a great opportunity to begin a conversation. For example, ask for help about homework.

Make friends slowly.

I couldn't get discouraged (泄气的) when it took a while to make friends．It really takes some time to make new friends. In a word, ________________________.

　Above all, remember that it can and will get better. You may have to work a little to make your high school experience a great one, but it's really worth it!
