A

Now more and more children are becoming very heavy. Maybe there are three main reasons.

Firstly, there are too many shops around schools. The shops sell unhealthy foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream at low prices. So some children don’t like to eat at home. If there were fewer of these shops, then probably children would buy less unhealthy food.

Secondly, children have bad eating habits. They like fast food. Today we can see

McDonald’s and KFC everywhere. Many children are crazy about fast food. In fact, most of the fast food is unhealthy because it has too much salt and sugar.

Thirdly, children these days take little exercise. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. It isn’t a good habit, and it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. They should go outside and play sports or games.

We should ask children to do more sports and eat less fast food. ( ) 56. In the passage, the writer talked about _______ main reasons why more children are becoming heavy.

In Canada and the United States, people enjoy entertaining (请客) at home. They often invite friends over for a meal, a party, or just for coffee and conversation.

Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes:

“Would you like come over for dinner on Saturday night?” “Hey, we having a party on Friday. Can you come?”

To reply to an invitation , either say thank you and accept , or say you're sorry and give an excuse:

“Thanks, I'd love to. What time would you like me to come?”or“Oh, sorry. I've a ticket for a movie.”

Sometimes, however, people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example:

“Please come over for a drink sometime.”“Why not get together for a party sometime?” “Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon?”

They are really just polite way of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don't mention a specific (确定的) time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say “Sure, that would be great!”or “Yes, thanks.”

So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real

invitation or is the person just being friendly?

A. Because they can save time B. Because they can spend less money C. Because they enjoy entertaining at home D. Because they have modern and beautiful house ( ) 67.
