With the development of society, the choice of food and drinks for children is more diversified than ever before. However, every coin has two sides. Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the statistics. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.

Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded 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 to 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. 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 guiding them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.

1.What is suggested by the author to deal with “overweight”?

A. Blaming the shops selling unhealthy and fatty foods.

B. Asking young children to walk to school every day.

C. Living an active life and removing bad eating habits.

D. Not watching TV or playing computer games after school.

2.Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?

3.The author writes the passage to ______________

My cousin Tim is pupil. He is clever, and he is very naughty. Today he fails in his math and English exam. Getting his report, he was deep worried. His poor report was required to be signed by his father at home. On the way to home an idea appeared on his mind. He found his father was reading a newspaper before he got home. Tim said to his father jokingly,

“Dad, can you write your name with all of your eyes shut?” His father replied.

“Of course not, my dear.” And his father did so. Tim was satisfied with the report already signed by his father.
