【題目】Researchers from the University of Newcastle are leading a worldfirst study which builds on earlier unpublished research that children are most likely to be guided by their father's eating and exercise habits.

The new study “Healthy Dads，Healthy Kids”，led by Associate Professor Philip Morgan from the University's Faculty of Education and Arts，is designed to help fathers promote and demonstrate to their children positive behaviors related to physical activity and healthy eating.

“The earlier findings showed that children are more likely to follow the example set by their father than their mother when it comes to eating and exercise，”said Morgan.Morgan saw striking results in a previous trial involving 165 overweight children．He found children who lost the most weight had fathers who were engaged in the new eating and exercise plan.

“We might think mothers are the main influence on children's diet and health，but the reality may be different，”said Morgan．“The roles of fathers are changing．More families have two parents working and more fathers are involved with food preparation and food shopping than in the past.”

“Fathers influence the food and physical activity habits in the home through their behaviours，attitudes and approach to food and eating，and act as a role model to their children，”said Morgan.

Researchers are inviting fathers who would like to reduce their weight to join the “Healthy Dads，Healthy Kids” program．Participation involves attending eight sessions （講習(xí)班） at the University of Newcastle over six months where the men will receive information，have weightrelated measurements recorded and complete questionnaires.

Cooking healthy food with the kids and creating a backyard fitness circuit （循環(huán)訓(xùn)練場） are among the assignments （課外作業(yè)） for fathers taking part in the study.

【1】What do we learn about the “Healthy Dads，Healthy Kids” program？

A．It aims to build close family relationships.

B．It involves fathers who want to lose weight.

C．It will last more than eight months.

D．It offers free online courses for parents.

【2】Morgan finds a link between children's weight loss and .

A．their parents' efforts

B．their father's influence

C．balanced diets

D．regular sports training

【3】Which of the following facts causes the change of fathers' roles？

If everyone does this, our society will be better and better.
