Peer pressure can be a powerful force, and sometimes a positive one. For example, hanging out with active peers may lead kids to       more, making a child’s social network a vehicle for promoting healthy habits and        obesity unconsciously.
The scientists studied networks of a group of students aged 5 to 12 and       how the youngsters’ made and dropped friends, and        effect these changing relationships had on their physical activity level.
In fact, children        their exercise level little by little to better      those in their circle; children who    with more active students were more       to increase their physical activity levels,        those who befriended more sedentary(久坐不動(dòng)的) children became        active. The children were mirroring, following or adjusting to be        to their friends before they knew it.
The encouraging        suggest a potentially effective way to change children’s behavior.        relying only on organized exercise programs to get moving, perhaps introducing sedentary kids to more active ones — might help more kids        the couch.
It’s believed that this is a possible novel approach to obesity       . The social environment does carry more power than we have given it        for, so we should make use of that intentionally to influence kids.
     that children are increasingly connected to one another,        through face-to-face interactions or virtual ones, their        networks can clearly have a deep effect       many aspects of their behavior-help kids in the long run by turning them into healthier adults.

Living one’s life is really like driving on a highway. First, to make a good driving, the driver must carefully examine the       of his car, just as he cares for his health for a good life.           he enters into the highway, he must       certain rules for his own safety. It also can be said that he must obey certain rules of society when living as a decent (體面的) adult. For example, on the highway, he is       to keep a constant (不斷的)      , which can be compared with his                activities through his life. Neither driving nor living must be taken at too       a speed nor at too slow a speed. If he drives too       the police will give him a      , just as he will be arrested when he breaks the law.       too conservatively (保守地), he will be called an out-of-date person       the others driving at a(an)       speed.
When he wants to change his lanes, he must give careful       to every direction of his car. It is sometimes dangerous to change the way of life       he can be sure of completion by doing so.

I always knew that I depended way too much on my phone.       I didn’t know how much, so I decided to do this challenge to find out.
Every morning since I got a smartphone, I’ve used The Weather Channel App to find out what to      . On the first morning I had to dress without guidance, but       I was able to guess that the day would be cold and foggy by looking out of my window.
I couldn’t tell what time it was. I haven’t worn a       for more than a year, because my phone showed the time. So I was late for       friends who had been on the bus for two hours from Santa Monica to Palos Verdes. I was also late for my part-time job. And      , I couldn’t call people to tell them that I was running late.
Getting places was harder, too. I got       because I couldn’t use the GPS (汽車導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)) on my phone. My driving, though, got a lot       because I no longer had my phone in one hand checking directions while       with the other.
But the number one trouble was not having my contact list (聯(lián)絡(luò)簿). I forgot to write down my friends’ and family members’ phone numbers before I       the challenge. It was sad to realize that I couldn’t       my brother’s and my mom’s cell phone numbers. Oh, how I wished to turn on the phone for just a second to look up phone numbers!
Even with all the problems, however, I found       not worrying about missing a text message or an e-mail.
This       was a great learning experience. It surprised me how I’d taken no notice of even the       things like remembering phone numbers. We all should take some time to think about how we can depend       on our cell phones.

In a spelling contest (競(jìng)賽), an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her     voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and finally decided to     ask her what she had said. By then, the girl knew she had     the word, but instead of lying, she told the truth that she had said the     letter—so she lost the contest.
As the girl walked off the   , the entire audience stood to their feet, clapping to praise her    . Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this girl’s honesty.     she lost the contest, she     the biggest contest that day: the contest of her     .
Probably the biggest test of our character is what we should do if we knew we would never get   . This young girl could easily have    and nobody would have known it   herself. However, that’s just it: she would know she did wrong. It’s been said, “If you cheat, you make yourself   .” This young girl was strong and smart enough to value her own character more than the    from a spelling contest. Her    for herself was more important than any respect others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to    with herself and the    she made at that moment would have a long-lasting influence.
It’s so true that the choices you make today make     you are tomorrow. Our children will follow our behavior. So if we want them to     to be honest, we must be honest ourselves. Remember, our kids are     what we do even when we don’t know.
